Lin Xu was an ordinary college student.
My dream isn't big: to find a stable job after graduation, not to pay too much rent, not to live a stressful life, and to be an ordinary but happy person.
But a phone call from his parents completely disrupted his peaceful routine:
“Your Uncle Li’s daughter, Ruoxi, has gone to your city for the college entrance exam. She’s unfamiliar with the place, so please move out of the dormitory and help us take care of her.”
Take care of me? Sure.
Without saying a word, Lin Xu checked out of the dormitory, packed his luggage, and was already planning how to show her around the city, help her find a place to live, and teach her how to avoid pitfalls.
He remembered the little girl who always followed him around calling him "Brother Lin Xu" when he was little.
I thought she was still the Ruoxi who needed someone to hold her hand to cross the street.
Until he stood in front of the carved bronze door and pressed the doorbell.
The moment the door opened, he froze on the spot—
In the light cascading down from the crystal chandelier,
Li Ruoxi wore a simple haute couture nightgown, her bare feet on an imported wool carpet, with the city skyline reflected in the floor-to-ceiling windows behind her.
This is a penthouse apartment in the most expensive area of a first-tier city.
And she, with a light laugh, said to him, "You've come? I've been waiting for you for so long."
Lin Xu almost dropped his suitcase.
The childhood sweetheart on the phone, "newly arrived and all alone,"
He became the master of a world he could never even look up to.
He originally thought he was there to "protect" [something].
But reality seems like a gentle joke played by fate—
It turns out that this time, it was she who held up the sky for him.
She said, "Brother Lin Xu, it's not you who has to take care of me."
"It's me, I've finally returned to your side."
—When an ordinary young man encounters a radiant childhood sweetheart
[Childhood sweethearts + Single female lead + Sweet romance + Mutual pampering + No rebirth or system]
"Ring—" I pressed the alarm clock, but a fair and delicate arm hooked around my neck.
"Good morning kiss~ Let's cuddle with our husbands all day long!"
Xia Yuyan—my childhood sweetheart, who has been proud and arrogant since we were little—is currently clinging to me like a koala.
She always says she's a "legally clingy person".
When we were in school: she would hold my arm and watch dramas until the early hours of the morning, she insisted that I be the 'human taste tester' when cooking, and she would even hang on me like a koala when we went to the supermarket.
At work: She follows behind like a little tail, and the coffee she hands you is always warm and sweet.
She would secretly bombard me with 99+ cute emojis during meetings.
On rainy days, she would rush into my company with an umbrella, shouting, "I'm taking you home!"
Even when we argued, the moment she hugged me with red eyes and said, "Don't leave me," all my anger turned into tender, doting care in my palms.
During dates, he would push the popcorn bucket towards me while watching a movie, but then he would focus on nibbling on my fingers...
Her sweetness seems to instantly heal all fatigue; after all, who can resist her sparkling eyes saying, "My husband is the best!"? I'm constantly being pampered like a sweet treat, but I'm completely happy with it.
And when she blushed and put the wedding ring on my ring finger.
I finally understand: a fate entangled in sweetness is so captivating.
