Prologue

"Slurp~ Mmm, yummy!" I slurped up the last mouthful of noodles, burping in contentment. My younger sister opposite me, who had just finished her ramen, started nagging, "unnie, faster! The movie is starting soon!"

"Ok, ok." I took one last mouthful of soup, and wiped my mouth dry. Slinging my bag over my shoulder, I stood up and followed my younger sister out of the restaurant.

The moment I stepped out of the establishment, my vision started spinning, and my head felt as if it would split apart. I could feel the bile rise up my throat, but I quickly forced them back down. Suddenly, the temperature around me dropped, and I could feel a freezing gust of wind assault my skin.

"Ugggg…" No matter how hard I tried to move, my limbs were numb, and refused to obey my commands. Thankfully, the spinning began to slow down, and the pain started to subside.

"AH-CHOO!" F*ck, why is it so bloody cold?! Isn't it supposed to be sunny all year around?! Gah I'd better find someplace warm…

Stumbling forward, I nearly bumped into...something. Warm air? I stepped forward, and went through a revolving door. It's warm….My body unconsciously relaxed, though my spinning vision has yet to stop.

"Hey miss, no drunks allowed in the cafe. Kindly leave the premises immediately."

Wha-? I didn't even drink today, why did you assume that I'm a drunk?! ...Wait, why do I smell of alcohol? ...Ugg my head...ahhh I give up… and my body slackened, toppling over. Before I lost consciousness, I could feel a pair of arms grab me.

"Whoa, are you alright miss?...Miss?" Ew, she stinks of alcohol. And she's heavy, too.

"Brother Ye, is she alright?" The little sister at the counter stood up.

"I think she just drank too much, she's passed out already."

"Oh dear, what do we do? It's too cruel to throw her out on the streets, especially not with what she's wearing."

Ye Xiu did a double take, and he then realised that the stranger in his arms was dressed way too little for the winter weather. A black mini dress, black boots, and a red plaid flannel. Seriously? Does she think she is Superwoman?

"Ye Xiu what are you doing?!" Chen Guo shrieked. Despite feeling moody, her misery was replaced by shock and disgust when she saw her new cafe manager holding an unconscious girl. But before she could scold Ye Xiu for being a pervert, the little sister explained the situation.

After hearing everything, her anger dissipated, her melancholy surging back. Sighing, she asked Ye Xiu to bring the stranger upstairs and let her bunk on the living room sofa. After all, she might have been depressed and binged on alcohol to forget the pain. Having come to her own conclusions, Chen Guo very generously decided to let her spend the night.
