In a crowd, I sneak peeks of your smiling face, and for a moment, it feels like a return to the past.

Will there come a day when we will once again meet by chance, fall in love at first sight, and then fall for each other?

——Zhang Ailing

When Nanxi received the call from her cousin Liang Qiaoqiao, she was desperately trying to finish her drafts at the dormitory.

Nanxi had been so busy with her graduation thesis recently that she hadn’t updated her novel for three days.

Readers were in an uproar in the book review section.

Her editor, Bai Ri, threatened her with nine continuous phone call bombardments, saying that if she didn’t produce an update today, she would immediately buy a plane ticket to squeeze her out, under the pretense of “paying back in flesh for the debt of the manuscript”.

Not only that, Bai Ri intended to reimburse the airfare from Nanxi’s manuscript payment…

Nanxi had no choice but to hunker down and write.

It wasn’t that she was afraid of Bai Ri’s threats, rather, she felt a twinge of guilt and appreciation when seeing so many eager readers urging her to update.

So, she temporarily put her thesis aside and focused on her novel manuscript….

Unexpectedly, Liang Qiaoqiao called her over before she had even written a thousand words.

On the phone, Liang Qiaoqiao said, “Nanxi, I’m not doing well, help me~”
