[Cheerful, outgoing top-student heroine + sweet-faced, dark-hearted yandere puppy hero]
[Love at first sight + school life + obsessive, twisted love + coercion]
The first time Lin Xixi entered the Qi family home, she was helping her teacher by tutoring Qi Ziyi. She didn’t notice Qi Jinyue’s burning gaze. No one knew that beneath his handsome exterior lay a love so obsessive it bordered on madness.
One glance was all it took for Qi Jinyue to fall for Lin Xixi. He asked his mother to invite her to tutor him, setting a carefully laid trap in motion. Knowing Lin Xixi had a weakness for good-looking people, he made sure to dress impeccably before each tutoring session, approaching her with the most harmless appearance and gradually breaking down her defenses.
After they got together, Qi Jinyue’s possessiveness slowly came to light. Obsessive and unhinged, he saw every man around Lin Xixi as a thorn in his side and wanted nothing more than to keep her locked by his side forever. When the college entrance exams were over, they thought they could stay together forever. But then Qi Jinyue’s father suddenly approached Lin Xixi, telling her he had already arranged for his son to attend a university overseas and demanding that they break up.
To escape this suffocating relationship and give them both a future, Lin Xixi painfully agreed to Qi’s father’s demands. With his help, she plotted to drug the unsuspecting Qi Jinyue. As she watched him being sent abroad, Lin Xixi also went on to university as planned.
Two years later, the school offered places for an overseas exchange program. Eager to see more of the world, Lin Xixi applied, unaware that someone had already taken control of the journey.
Qi Jinyue stood in the living room of a Beverly Hills mansion, gazing at the enormous photo of Lin Xixi on the wall. Years of repressed obsession and madness filled his eyes as he whispered, “Xixi! This time, I won’t let you run away again!”
