The Fifth Heartbreak

share time: 2025-10-09 02:30:45

Lin Xiaoman's fifth heartbreak struck without warning—on the night she prepared to propose to her three-year boyfriend, she caught him embracing her best friend. Clutching the custom couple rings, she rushed into her usual bar, only to have the bartender Chen Mo hand her the "Long Island Iced Tea" she always ordered after a breakup, murmuring, "Don't drink until you throw up this time." Xiaoman was stunned: how did this stoic bartender know the details of her previous four heartbreaks? What shocked her even more was the note on the tissue Chen Mo gave her—it read, "I want to watch snow with someone I like," a line she'd hidden in her notebook in high school. It turned out Chen Mo was the glasses-wearing boy from the next class who always helped her pick up her homework, hiding his love for ten years. Finally, when she broke down for the fifth time, he dared to stand in front of her. But Xiaoman was scared. "Aren't you afraid of being the sixth?" she asked. Chen Mo pulled out a plane ticket: "I was supposed to go abroad tomorrow, but now I want to take a bet—bet that you're willing to give me a chance to be your first heartbeat."
