President Fu’s Dearest Is a Country Bumpkin

[University Romance + Love That Grows Over Time + Repaying a Debt of Gratitude + Female Lead's Growth]

A resilient, reserved girl from the mountains ✘ a wild, cocky playboy from Beijing's elite circle

Su Qiao was sponsored by the powerful Fu family of Beijing to attend Peking University. She always meant to “repay their kindness, keep her head down, and cause no trouble,” living cautiously in the bustling city. The traces of her life in a remote southwestern village set her apart from everyone around her: her faded clothes, loose braid, and unmistakable country accent.

The first time she met Fu Yuxiao, the Fu family's heir, she was being teased by his childhood friend as a “country bumpkin.” The arrogant, brash young man at the center of the crowd merely watched coldly, saying nothing. His indifference only strengthened Su Qiao's resolve to keep her distance.

But fate insisted on tying them together.

At first, Fu Yuxiao was annoyed by her timid reserve and couldn't help giving her a hard time. But when she saw how well he and his childhood sweetheart seemed to suit each other and began deliberately avoiding him, he panicked for the first time. Only then did he realize that this seemingly “uncultured” girl had an exceptionally resilient spirit. She worked to support her studies without complaint, her eyes shone brighter than starlight when she listened in class, and she was always sincere and warm toward others.

When she grew insecure about the gap between their backgrounds, he gently comforted her. “Su Qiao, the way you take your life seriously makes you shine brighter than anyone.”

Su Qiao: “I only want to repay your kindness.”

He drew her into his arms, his voice meltingly soft. “What kindness? Become Mrs. Fu Yuxiao. Let me spoil you from now on. That would be the best way to ‘repay’ the Fu family.”
