Xu Zhi suffered unimaginable bullying at Seventh High School.
Her bullies slapped her, tore off her clothes, and made her kneel on the ground and bark like a dog. She thought she would rot in the mud.
Then one day, Xu Zhi unexpectedly swapped bodies with Zhou Jibai, the most arrogant young master in the whole school.
When he opened his eyes again, the tall, rebellious boy, wearing her cold, sharp-featured face, kicked over the desk of one of her tormentors.
Looking at his battered reflection in the mirror, eyes filled with vicious fury, Zhou Jibai felt his scalp prickle.
The "shy, easy-to-bully" girl at his school had been living through hell every single day.
That night, the ever-adored Young Master Zhou cornered her against a wall, his eyes red and his voice trembling with forced firmness:
"Who taught you not to hit back or talk back? Hit them back, damn it! If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you!"
Later, the bullies discovered that Xu Zhi, who had once been so meek she seemed beneath notice, not only came first in her grade every time, but also had a dangerously obsessive young master standing behind her, with eyes for no one but her.
"Zhou Jibai, they say I'm not good enough for you."
In the dimly lit stairwell, the boy who had always been untouchable lowered his head and carefully tucked her cold hand into his pocket. His voice was low and hoarse. "Don't listen to them. In this whole world, I don't want anyone but you."
--Once, we were forced to live through hell in each other's place.
--Now, we'll trudge through the muck together and reach for the stars in the highest heavens.
