[Sweet, bookish, slow-to-warm, well-behaved girl x domineering yet gentle, pretend-scheming guy] [Happy ending] [Ensemble school cast] [Coming of age] [Youth] [From campus to the city] [Lighthearted writing] [Lots of couples]
Cheng Xue and Jiang Yu grew up together. Everyone except Cheng Xue can see exactly how Jiang Yu feels about her.
Jiang Yu’s father was once exasperated by his son’s lack of ambition: “That mute oil bottle will never manage to win his future wife over! It’s driving me crazy!”
But Cheng Xue doesn’t think he’s a mute oil bottle. She even thinks he can be a little childish and shameless.
He does have a bit of a temper, though, and is always getting mad for no reason.
Jiang Yu doesn’t deny it. He really does get jealous, especially when he sees guys constantly crowding around Cheng Xue. It drives him crazy.
“Cheng Xue, I like you.” One evening after self-study, Jiang Yu pinned her against the classroom’s back door, holding back a feeling that was nearly wild.
But Cheng Xue panicked and pulled away from him, unable to meet his burning gaze. She lowered her head and said, “Studying is more important right now.”
As she spoke, a scalding tear fell onto the back of Cheng Xue’s hand.
Unable to bear it, Cheng Xue looked up, but suddenly he pressed his lips to hers. She glared at him in shame and anger, then shoved Jiang Yu away and fled.
Jiang Yu stood by the door, pressing his lips together hard. Then the corners of his mouth lifted, a storm of wild emotion churning in his eyes.
You always say studying is more important, but I can’t hold back any longer.
Cheng Xue, as long as you like me, I’ll wait for you, no matter how long it takes.
But if you fall for someone else, I won’t let you go.
