[Beautiful, willful, bold, slightly spoiled heroine x brooding, vaguely stalkerish, paternalistic, possessive hero]
[Age gap + both each other's first + sweet romance + shameless favoritism + flirtatious heroine + loyal puppy]
At the start, the heroine is 20 and the hero is 27.
Meng Xucheng had been proper and composed for years, but the moment he met Wen Feici, he threw all etiquette and restraint out the window. He despised himself even as he put on a full display to pursue her.
After they started dating, Wen Feici sometimes found Meng Xucheng so annoying that she would say she wanted to break up, and she grew even more frequent in giving him the cold shoulder.
After all, who wants a partner who treats them like a child? He was already older than her to begin with.
What was more, Wen Feici realized that Meng Xucheng had gone beyond secretly doing creepy things. He was always watching her, and when he came home, he wouldn't make a sound. He would stand in the doorway staring at her for who knew how long, until she happened to notice him and jumped in fright.
Even when she scolded or hit him, he never got angry or said anything like, “Doesn't your hand hurt?” Instead, he looked delighted. Once Wen Feici had tired herself out, he would say tenderly, “I'm home.”
Wen Feici felt that Meng Xucheng had been pretending before he confessed to her. Back then, he still seemed like a normal person. Now he was just a dog.
