These days, Munni hasn’t gone to the restaurant, rarely went out, and mostly stayed at ho, sunbathing and reading books, living quite a content life.
The morning after Xu Yisen posted on Weibo, Munni was woken up by an urgent doorbell.
Impatiently, she kicked off the blanket, picked up the tablet on the bedside table to check the monitor, and saw the person knocking on the door turning away.
He wore a baseball cap and a mask, making it impossible to see his features clearly.
As he left, his figure disappeared from the monitor, and only then did Munni notice that the man who had knocked on her door left a small box at her doorstep.
Could it be from a logistics company? Not possible, deliveries are always left at the security office.
Munni grumbled to herself, but couldn’t resist her curiosity. She went downstairs barefoot, opened the door, and brought the small box inside.
The box was small, light, and didn’t have any recipient or sender information.
"Could it be a bomb sent by my enemy?"
She muttered to herself, picked up scissors to cut the tape on the box, and then opened it.
On top were packaging air cushions. Munni reached in, removed all the air cushions, revealing a book protected beneath.
Munni reached in and took out the book, titled "Even if the Fish Quits Water," by... Xia Yuge.
She rembered the last ti Wu Yuchen ca to G City, he ntioned that Xia Yuge had signed a book deal with a publisher, most likely referring to the novel now in her hand.
But... she had never seen any promotion of this book by Xia Yuge or the publisher. Has the book not been released yet? And who sent her this book?
Munni furrowed her brows, seriously examining the cover of the novel, the spine carried an introduction of the novel...
"Even if the fish quits water, I can’t quit you."
"Supermodel Xia Yuge passionately writes about a gripping love story."
Munni turned the book to its back, where the novel’s synopsis was printed...

Their budding love quickly blossod, and Cui Jingxian would often lovingly pat Warm’s head with a smile, saying: you are my unquittable Warm.

A match of equal social status beca an insurmountable barrier between them, and under his mother’s repeated pressure, Cui Jingxian had to give up the relationship, choosing family instead.
The breakup motivated Warm to strive to be an outstanding woman, so she could match the equally outstanding Cui Jingxian and not be looked down upon by others.
After years of effort, Warm finally realized her dream, becoming a world-class dancer. When she wanted to retrieve the love that made her happy, she discovered that the barrier between them was now much more than just social status.
More problems and conflicts erged, making it clear to both that no matter how much they loved each other, they could no longer resist the tricks of fate.
Cui Jingxian, as his mother wished, married a woman of equal social status, while Warm was still waiting for that sa unbreakable man to have a change of heart.
If we had been braver to confront fate’s teasing back then, perhaps we could be a bit happier now."
Munni tore open the transparent wrap of the novel and opened it...
