A resilient wildflower × an untouchable beauty
-He hates spring, autumn, and winter.
-He only likes summer.

After stumbling upon her parents arguing again, Xie Shijia crumpled to the floor and covered her face as she sobbed.
Chen Jingci silently came to her side,
finding her in a miserable state.
Just a few days ago, he’d stood onstage in a spotless white shirt, giving a speech,
while she’d been forced to change classes and reduced to a parasite in her new one.
Now they were in the same class.
.
Seeing her fall to the floor,
the boy held an unopened packet of tissues between two long, elegant fingers.
His voice was like a misty valley deep in the mountains.
“Come with me? I’ll solve all your problems.”
As if possessed, Xie Shijia reached for the gardenia-scented tissues.
And accepted all his love, too.

Chen Jingci had never told anyone that he had a secret crush on a girl.
.
From the first moment he saw her, he wanted her.
He was despicable. He used underhanded means to get her transferred into his class, where she became his deskmate.
He wanted Xie Shijia to be his god alone.
To possess her, to make her his and his alone.
.
He even got a tattoo for her.
The black cross beneath his collarbone burned and stung,
its pain setting his heart ablaze every moment of every day.
The cross, Shijia, his Buddha, his “Shakyamuni.”
.
“You can only be mine.”
| He hates spring, autumn, and winter because for six whole years, you were nowhere to be found in any of those seasons. He only likes summer because your name is Xia Xia and because summer was when we reunited.
