Sweet and docile little flower on the surface × laid-back, shameless guy who’s secretly the top student
At sixteen, Li Zhaoning looks sweet, soft, and well-behaved, but she’s full of tricks, holds a grudge, and settles scores on the spot. She never lets anyone get the better of her.
At eighteen, Shen Qi is the undisputed top student at school, yet he’s lazy, roguish, and a shameless flirt. He’s a master at seduction, has flirted with the whole school, and never once struck out.
The day they first meet, the basketball he carelessly tosses hits her workbook. He instinctively uses his usual flirting routine to offer a half-hearted apology.
He thinks she’s just a soft little bunny he can push around, never suspecting that sharp thorns lie beneath her pale, delicate exterior.
She shuts him down to his face, then quietly takes revenge behind his back, slashing his tires and targeting his weak spots with such cunning that he can’t pin a thing on her.
The whole school thinks Shen Qi is aloof, untouchable, and impossible to tame, but no one knows that ever since he met Li Zhaoning, this shameless, arrogant top student has completely fallen for her.
He ignores everyone else who flirts with him, but clings to this sly little fox day after day, tempting her step by step and keeping her on edge.
Sharp against sharp, a schemer meets a master of flirtation.
In the dizzying push and pull of young love at school, desire grows unchecked and affection becomes intoxicating.
This tangle of hearts, sparked in midsummer, is a romance where tenderness and obsession coexist, enchanting and passionate, with each of them sharing the rest of their lives with the other.
