What is it like to grow up in a single-parent household?
As children, Bai Yuchen and Zhiyuan found comfort in each other.
Because Bai Yuchen had no father, the other mean kids singled him out for being quiet, delicate, and academically gifted. Whenever that happened, Zhiyuan would rush over and shield him, confronting the troublemakers. Again and again, she taught Bai Yuchen that there was light in the world, and again and again, she soothed his heart.
They were the most important people in each other’s lives. Sadly, when they were twelve, they were forced apart, and Bai Yuchen didn’t even leave her a single word.
Four years later, Bai Yuchen and Zhiyuan were lucky enough to end up in the same class. But the girl treated him like a stranger, shutting out the world around her and caring only about her studies. Bai Yuchen, however, kept an eye on her, watching her every move and protecting her from the shadows. But the distance in her eyes was a line he could never cross.
Later, he changed his college entrance exam application so he could attend the same university as her. Only then did he gradually uncover the secrets she had kept during high school. Driven by his determination to protect her from the shadows, he helped her overcome one of life’s greatest hardships, and at last, he could protect her openly.
P.S. A university and high school romance.
The male lead is irresistible: roguishly handsome, youthful, a powerful boxer, a rich young heir, a devoted romantic, and hopelessly in love.
The heroine is level-headed at heart, still warm toward a cold world, beautiful, kind, and sensible.
A distant, roguishly handsome, youthful campus heartthrob x a gentle, sensible, beautiful sweetheart
