Surrender to You
Qing Tang Shuan Xiang Cai
Lu Shu is about to move.
Her friend warns her in advance that her new roommate is stunningly beautiful with fair skin and an otherworldly face, though a bit cold in personality.
On their first night living together, Lu Shu gets drenched in the rain and forgets her keys, leaving her no choice but to awkwardly knock on the door.
When the door opens, the so-called "aloof roommate" stands before her wrapped only in a towel, figure graceful and alluring.
Lu Shu is dumbstruck.
Indeed, the woman is breathtakingly beautiful.
Too bad...
This face belongs to Pei Zhixi.

Both Lu Shu and Pei Zhixi gained fame through classical dance. That year, Lu Shu was embroiled in scandalous rumors, mocked as a "fairy on the outside, tea master on the inside," while Pei Zhixi swept up awards effortlessly, becoming the ethereal goddess of classical dance in everyone’s eyes.
Lu Shu always felt she and Pei Zhixi were "bound by fate"—competing for over twenty years since childhood, always butting heads like sharp needles against wheat awns, never seeing eye to eye.
As teenagers, Pei Zhixi would tutored her while teasing, "Lu Shu, you’re hopeless. Three times and you still don’t get it?"
Later, Lu Shu never imagined...
Pei Zhixi would kiss her and murmur with warm eyes and a gentle voice, "Lu Shu, you’re hopeless. Do you even know how to kiss?"
Half-resisting, she’d reply, "Keep talking and I won’t let you kiss me."

Reuniting with Pei Zhixi was like a dying ember meeting kindling.

【Mini Theater】
After the classical duet *Shadow* goes viral overnight, Pei Zhixi and Lu Shu skyrocket in popularity, becoming the nation’s beloved classical dance goddesses.
During a joint interview, a nosy host jokingly asks, "You two are famously in sync, and word is many of Lu’s choreographies were tailored for Pei. Netizens wonder—did Lu have a crush on Pei?"
Lu Shu smiles. "Pei is a dance fanatic, too clueless about romance. Not my type."
Pei Zhixi chuckles without comment.
That same night—
Pei Zhixi nips at Lu Shu’s lips and murmurs, "Tell me, where exactly am I lacking in romance?"

2. First love for both; mutual healing, ultra-sweet.
