Proud, outspoken heiress × cold-faced, warm-hearted, gloomy villain
(School life / very sweet romance / one-on-one / both are each other’s first / secret crush / hopelessly devoted to his wife)
Ji Wan suddenly discovers that she can see comments no one else can.
The whole school avoids Shi Yan, the gloomy and ruthless guy, but all she sees are pages of secret-crush thoughts:
[Mr. Ice-Cold is secretly jealous again.]
[He’s been secretly in love for ten years and still hasn’t succeeded, all because Brother Shi can’t bring himself to speak up.]
[You’re pretending to be cold, but you’re about to crack.]
[He’s already sneaked a look at her thirty-two times today.]
Ji Wan raises an eyebrow. “Interesting.”
From then on, the proud heiress stops standing by with an icy stare.
She ships herself with the villain while following the comments to expose his disguise.
Only after she’s shipped them for a while does she realize that this feared big shot has long since fallen deeply in love with her.
She follows the comments to get closer to him and see through him, eventually drawing the boy lost in darkness completely to her side.
When the secrets of his family dispute and everyone’s rejection of him are finally revealed,
Shi Yan thinks she will abandon him again,
but Ji Wan pulls him close and protects him, keeping him firmly behind her.
With red eyes, he confesses everything he has kept inside and lets down all his defenses.
All the love he has kept hidden erupts in that moment.
