第1章与青梅同居

Living with my childhood sweetheart

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

林叙是个再普通不过的大学生。
梦想不大：毕业找份安稳工作，租房别太贵，生活别太卷，做个平凡却快乐的普通人。
可一通来自父母的电话，彻底打乱了他平静的轨迹：
“你李叔家的若兮考去你们市了，人生地不熟的，你搬出宿舍，帮我们照顾一下她。”
照顾？行。
林叙二话不说，退了宿舍，打包行李，心里还盘算着怎么带她熟悉城市、帮她找房、教她避坑。
他记得那个小时候总跟在自己身后喊“林叙哥哥”的小女孩，
以为她还是那个需要人牵着手过马路的若兮。
直到他站在那扇雕花铜门前，按下门铃。
门开的一刻，他怔在原地——
水晶吊灯倾泻而下的光里，
李若兮穿着简约高定睡裙，赤脚踩在进口羊毛地毯上，身后是整面落地窗映出的城市天际线。
这是一线城市最贵地段的顶层公寓，
而她，正轻笑着对他说：“你来了？我等你好久了。”
林叙手里的行李箱差点滑落。
电话里那个“初来乍到、无依无靠”的小青梅，
竟成了他仰望都够不着的世界的主人。
他原以为自己是来“守护”的，
可现实，像是命运开的一个温柔玩笑——
原来，这次是她，为他撑起了一片天。
她说：“林叙哥哥，不是你要照顾我。”
“是我，终于回到了你身边。”
