[Spoiled, fiery-tempered troublemaker x prim, abstinent powerhouse]
[Age gap | Grew up together | She pursues him | Spoiling and indulging her]
Xu Enshu grew up with Xie Chengqing indulging her in every way and giving in to her at every turn.
So when she tried to get intimate with Xie Chengqing and he turned her down, she didn't think much of it and said:
"People are so conservative, they think nothing is proper."
"I call you Big Brother as a bit of fun, and you actually take it seriously?"
Just as she was about to succeed, the Conquest System bound itself to her.
She learned that she was living inside a book, and that Xie Chengqing's "destined heroine" was someone else!
Xu Enshu was furious.
Working together with the System, she battled her way through every challenge and began blocking every emotional milestone between Xie Chengqing and the heroine, like a roadblock stopping passersby.
By the time Xie Chengqing realized Xu Enshu was acting strangely, she had already become utterly brazen.
Decades of maintaining a stable facade made it impossible for him to take it calmly. He was both furious and stunned:
"Which good-for-nothing has led you astray!"
As affection squeezed out morality and a fluttering heart ate away at reason,
the barrier between them began to grow as fragile as a cicada's wing.
Just as Xie Chengqing let himself fall, beginning to yearn for this relationship to have a happy ending
Xu Enshu "lost her memory."
She stopped pursuing Xie Chengqing so fiercely, stopped acting as if she was bound to win him over.
She returned to the way things had been, to the relationship Xie Chengqing had once considered ideal.
At last facing his own desires, Xie Chengqing was terrified and filled with regret.
This time, he was the one who couldn't bear that their relationship would never change.
Later, when Xie Chengqing pursued her with all the awkwardness of a man falling in love for the first time, the scheming Xu Enshu simply said:
"How can that be? We're not allowed to date!"
