[Impoverished Gemini girl X arrogant rich playboy who becomes a lovesick puppy]
Ye Ling had a secret: during her first year of college, she fell for her upperclassman, Fang Yu.
But Fang Yu came from a wealthy family, while she was a girl from the countryside who had barely made it into college. Even her tuition had been raised by the villagers.
She planned to confess once she had earned enough money from working part-time.
One day, when her best friend Shen Manman confessed to Pei Liancheng, the handsome, wealthy heir to the Pei family, he cruelly humiliated her. "You're so ugly. What makes you think you're good enough for me?"
Ye Ling was furious and stood up for her friend.
But Pei Liancheng set his sights on her and kept pestering her at every turn.
At his birthday party, Ye Ling saw the man she loved, Fang Yu, acting intimately with another girl. Her heart ached terribly.
Pei Liancheng saw it all.
He swallowed the bitterness in his heart, pulled her into his arms, and won her over with his clumsy kiss.
"Ye Ling, be my girlfriend."
Dazed by his kiss, she agreed in the heat of the moment.
She thought that one day he would lose interest in her and realize she was just an ordinary girl, not worth all his attention.
But as they spent more time together, she gradually fell for this domineering, devoted young man, who also had an adorable side.
Their difference in status was enormous. How could his family ever approve?
