[Devoted, humble puppy-like man vs. gentle, melancholy girl]

She thought she would spend her life in the shadows, but a ray of sunshine pierced the darkness and forced her into the light.
The first time, Li Changnian rejected him.
“I have a husband. I love him so much. When he hits me, it proves he loves me!”
Zhou Xu hid in a corner and cried, wanting to beat that bastard to a pulp. What right did that bastard have to treat her that way?
The second time, she rejected him.
“Even if I didn't have a husband, we still wouldn't be together.”
Zhou Xu went crying to his friend and bought an outrageously expensive guide to winning her over.
The third time:
“Go away. We're not right for each other.”
“What do you mean, we're not right for each other? You're a woman, I'm a man. We're a perfect match!”
The fourth time:
“Please, just give me a chance. I can even be the other woman for love.”
The guide's final tip: If you can't win her over, keep pestering her!
When a man pursues a woman, there's a mountain in the way. So he'll chip away at it, bit by bit.
