[Rekindled romance + simmering tension + male lead humbly begs for love + sweet and bittersweet + one-on-one, both devoted]
Yun Xiu and Shen Zhihuan had a secret relationship in high school. Then, heartbroken by youthful troubles, she dumped him in tears, feeling miserable and pathetic, and left him a breakup note before they went their separate ways.
Years later, someone schemes against her at a dinner party. She accidentally calls him, and he comes running. She clings to him, mumbling someone else's name. Furious, Shen Zhihuan lifts her chin and bites her. “Yun Xiu, open your eyes and see who I am.”
They get tangled up again, and Yun Xiu ends up in an ambiguous relationship with him. Shen Zhihuan likes biting her, and only stops once he's drawn blood. She calls him a shameless, sinister dog and a carnivorous little fox. He just grunts and ignores her. One time, after drinking too much, she flops around in his arms and calls her best friend to gossip about him.
“Girl, you have to be careful.”
“Don't worry. If anyone gives me trouble, I'll have the little fox bite them to death.”
“…”
Once, when Shen Zhihuan is in the hospital, she stays to look after him. Yun Xiu thinks the bastard is always eyeing her hungrily, so to avoid getting bitten, she asks for an extra blanket and sleeps separately.
But late that night, she's freezing, her hands and feet icy cold. The bastard shamelessly climbs into her bed. “It's cold sleeping alone.”
“I don't want to! Men have never been reliable. A woman should have the heart of Mulan!”
“We're just going to sleep. Why bring Mulan into it?”
With that, the little fox lifts the blanket and snuggles up to her again, rubbing against her ear. “Be good. I won't bite you tonight…”
“…”
