The 62nd Heartbeat

Qiu Yingying suffers from a rare "paroxysmal tachycardia"—whenever her heart rate exceeds 120 beats per minute, she briefly faints. At eighteen, she lives like a delicate crystal doll: she can't run, can't jump, can't experience extreme joy or sorrow. Her youth is a pale sheet of paper soaked in disinfectant. Until she meets Li Canrong from the neighboring class—the school team captain who shines like the sun on the basketball court and makes the whole crowd scream. Every dunk he makes sets off a shrill alarm on her heart rate monitor. She is the most timid spectator in a forbidden dance, while he is the stubborn partner who only wants to invite her to dance. "If my closeness makes you lose control," the boy's burning palm presses against the back of her cold hand, pressing her hand to his chest, "then swap my heart for yours. Listen, it's beating for you." A treatment in the name of love begins. And everyone wants to know—when the most dangerous "source of heart palpitations" in school is determined to become her only "pacemaker," is there a solution to this problem? — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The 62nd Heartbeat — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
