Lu Yanjing is a top student at the affiliated high school. He comes from a wealthy family, is strikingly handsome, and is the envy of everyone, a born winner. But they say he’s aloof and arrogant, and no one dares sit beside him.

On her first day after transferring, Ji Huaixi gets a taste of the arrogant guy’s sharp tongue. Worse, they end up desk mates. She waits and hopes he’ll ask to switch seats, but this guy refuses to play by the rules.

And then things start to take a strange turn.

How did the cool, arrogant guy turn into a sweet, gentle golden retriever?

He’s always going on about being desk mates, and his classmates joke that he’s been possessed.

Ji Huaixi still remembers the first time she saw Lu Yanjing. The boy had beautiful eyes, but there was a frighteningly cold intensity hidden in them. Later, though, those eyes were always filled with her reflection.

Lu Yanjing loves to tease her with a straight face, then laugh and pinch her cheek when she believes him before realizing the truth.

“Why is our Ji Huaixi so adorable?”

“Lu Yanjing!”

“Lu Yanjing reporting for duty! What can I do for you, baby?”

At an auction, Ji Huaixi catches sight of a familiar figure once again.

At a class reunion, the moment she meets Lu Yanjing’s eyes, she turns and flees, only to be pulled into the familiar embrace of his arms.

“I never agreed to break up, Ji Huaixi.” Tears fill those eyes, strange yet familiar.

Later, snow falls thick over the streets of London. They hold hands and never part again.

No character is perfect.

Different strokes for different folks.
