[Mutually Devoted] [Pure Romance] [Happy Ending] [Super Sweet] [They Say What They Mean, No Misunderstandings]
A lively, sunny girl x a cold, scheming, aloof boy
The first time Shi Ling saw Xiao Qihan, she was completely smitten. She decided then and there to win him over.
...But why does this seem to be going in the wrong direction?
At school, whenever Shi Ling got into a fight, Xiao Qihan covered her escape and took all the blame, accepting every self-criticism and disciplinary action. Shi Ling protested, so the dean waved a hand and said, "Stop fighting over it. You're all getting punished. Nobody gets off the hook!"
At work, Shi Ling slacks off all day, then grins at Xiao Qihan and asks if he thinks she's incredibly hardworking. Xiao Qihan lovingly cuts her fruit into bite-size pieces and arranges them on a plate, smiling like winter melting into spring as he tells her she's amazing. The secretary: I can't watch. I really can't watch.
On a dating show, when asked to name three of her flaws, she boldly asks Xiao Qihan, "Does not knowing how to whistle catcalls count?"
Even his face, frozen for a thousand years, cracks just a little.
Then one day, after they disagree, Shi Ling gives him the silent treatment, but secretly sews shut the pockets of the suit trousers Xiao Qihan plans to wear to a meeting the next day.
The next day, Xiao Qihan automatically tries to put his hands in his pockets during the meeting, only to find he can't. Xiao Qihan: ?
Sitting in the CEO's chair outside the conference room, Shi Ling laughs so hard she doubles over.

Later, Shi Ling suddenly realizes that she met Xiao Qihan much earlier than she thought.
