Thirty year old Liang Xinhe broke up with her lover of seven years because the other cheated on her. Thirty-six year old Ning Xi finally broke up with her partner who had broken up and gotten back together with her several times.
When they first met, they were both in poor states of mind. They both thought that the other was going to be another person who had brushed past their shoulder, not knowing that their affinity had started.

Liang Xinhe: “So I press down the snow in my heart time and time again, as they are too white, too close to spring.”

Ning Xi: “These emotional affairs of the mortal world flash by like a sparrow suddenly swooping past.”

– Yu Xiuhua, “I Love You”

Translator on why it was this one first:

This is probably one of my top, if not my modern baihe novel. Without spoiling too much, the basic premise is that interior designer Liang Xinhe and author Ning Xi are both recovering from messy breakups/ issues in their lives when they start encountering each other by coincidence. The world is so big, but so small at the same time, since they become neighbors when Liang Xinhe moves, and they quickly become friends. And then, as they interact with each other more and... more>> more, they learn more about each other (the fact that they both had previous girlfriends) and start poking around at each other, and finally admit that they've fallen in love. It's very slow, it's very realistic, but they show that love is worth looking forward to, and within Ning Xi's words and Liang Xinhe's actions, we can see what love is meant to be.

The title is from Yu Xiuhua's poem "I Love You", which I found to be the extra cherry on top, with Ning Xi being an author, Liang Xinhe's name, and just the romanticism it brings to life. Hopefully I bring the book justice in the English translation! <<less
