The Cool, Straight-Laced Woman Is Hard to Woo, and the Green-Tea Hero Is Losing His Mind

In her senior year of high school, Sang Ning moved into an empty room belonging to her mother's best friend.

Her roommate was Shi Yan, the top student in their grade, rumored to be sickly and antisocial.

When they first met, the boy was wearing an oversized white shirt, the corners of his eyes faintly red as he coughed until he could barely breathe. “Ningning, there’s thunder outside. I’m scared of the dark…”

Sang Ning’s heart melted, and from then on she treated him like a fragile little thing, keeping him safe behind her.

When a guy confessed to her, Shi Yan hid behind her and trembled. When they went to the supermarket to buy water, he couldn’t even unscrew the cap on a bottle.

Until one day, Sang Ning came home early

In a dim alley, her sickly roommate, who couldn’t even open a bottle, was holding the sports school’s resident bully against the wall with one hand.

His gaze was sinister, his voice cold as ice. “Try handing her another love letter, and I’ll break you.”

Sang Ning: “…”

At the sound of footsteps, Shi Yan stiffened.

The next second, his eyes turned red with practiced ease, and he stumbled into Sang Ning’s arms, his voice trembling with grievance. “Ningning, he was so scary. My hand hurts from being frightened…”
