    [Self-recommended, welcome to read] The male protagonist is naturally aloof, seeing through everything, possessing boundaries yet remaining distant, yet also unruly in character. Initially, he believes he's in control, the dominant one in the relationship; however, he becomes insanely jealous and engages in cold wars and clingy behavior whenever he notices the female protagonist's lack of interest or distance. Before their breakup, the female protagonist accuses him of arrogance and coldness, saying he has everything but no heart. After their long separation, he develops physical attraction to her and feels a spark, but he doesn't believe it will last and isn't initially very invested in the relationship. However, he showers her with resources and attention. Later, after realizing her true feelings, he decides he'll be entangled with her forever. After the female protagonist experiences a change in her life, he feels somewhat estranged from her. While the male protagonist sinks deeper into despair, she remains clear-headed and pessimistic. She believes he has a "white moonlight" (idealized love), that she's his kept woman, and that she can't fit into his circle. She endures and distances herself. Therefore, when misunderstandings erupt, she says particularly hurtful things. Fortunately, they are willing to overcome everything.
