[Pure Romance] [One Heroine] [Ensemble Cast] [Daily Life]
One day, Xia Shanglu, who was helping out at a convenience store, was confronted by a girl with a nasty personality.
He thought it was just a brief episode in his life, but a few hours later, they ran into each other again.
At the celebratory banquet for her acceptance into university, Zhou He kept her anger to herself to maintain her good-girl image in front of her family. She was a completely different person from the girl he'd seen that afternoon, and Xia Shanglu couldn't help laughing.
Even so, Zhou He didn't forget to get back at him. Her competitive streak only made her more determined after every setback.
Only... she never seemed able to beat him.
Later, the girl wondered: If I make him fall in love with me, will that count as a crushing victory?
Later still, the girl fell in love with him first. Her possessiveness made her determined to claim him, and she launched a fierce pursuit, even writing a conquest guidebook for the occasion.
Meanwhile, Xia Shanglu belatedly realized that although the girl had a nasty personality, she was also incredibly cute, and that perhaps their fates were still intertwined.
Including, but not limited to...
She's his good friend's younger sister.
She's his gaming buddy online.
She's a devoted fan of his movie commentary.
She's his future schoolmate.
This was more than just an unfinished connection. It was as if the Matchmaker had tied them together with a red string made of reinforced concrete. But whenever their identities were revealed, it came with both hilarity and endless embarrassment.
Much later, Xia Shanglu finally understood the saying:
No amount of scheming beats a light stroke of fate.
