Summary
【Rugged, hard-edged fake driver x delicate yet resilient faux ingenue】
After eight years in prison, Meng Tang is released knowing nothing about how to live. Until he meets Xie An, a teacher volunteering in the village.
The first time they meet, she gets carsick and throws up all over him.
The second time, the village chief arranges for her to stay at his house.
Watching this young woman drift through his days, Meng Tang's verdict: a lamb walking straight into a tiger's jaws.
Editor's review
Who it's for
A good fit for
- Romance readers who enjoy rugged heroes, sweet romance, and strongly possessive male leads
- Readers drawn to innocent heroines and contrasting, endearing character dynamics
- Those looking for light, emotionally concentrated reading to unwind with after work
- Readers interested in romance set against volunteer teaching and rural backgrounds
Not a good fit for
- Readers expecting serious social realism or deep psychological character study
- Readers who feel uncomfortable with a hero who has a prison background
- Readers who prefer slow-burn, restrained prose over intense emotional push-and-pull
Reading tips
- Suited to light reading before bed or on the commute; read chapter by chapter without rushing
- Pay attention to the early details of how the leads meet—the character contrast is the emotional foundation of the whole book
- If volunteer teaching or rural settings are unfamiliar, read the first few chapters to settle into the background before the main romance takes over
- After finishing, compare it with similar rugged-hero romances and consider how character setup sustains the sweet-romance tension

About the author
Xu Zhizhi is a Chinese author whose work is mainly oriented toward modern romance. Public information about her is limited, and no clear records of her real name, nationality, or life details are available. The library currently holds four of her works: Ying Chen Hun, Bu Ke Yi Xin Dong, Shi Wen, and Meeting Lisbon. Judging from the titles and their classification, these works are mostly set against urban emotional backgrounds, unfolding narratives around attraction, distance, and reunion between characters, with a certain emotional tension and a delicate sense of everyday life. Among them, Meeting Lisbon takes a foreign city as its starting point, showing the author's attempt to bring a geographical setting into an emotional story. Because there are no author statements or interview materials, the overall shape of her writing style is difficult to sketch fully; readers can sense her sustained engagement with romance through the four works mentioned above.
