She's So Good

[Rich heiress x down-on-his-luck boy]

When Xue Nanyin was seventeen, her father brought home an "illegitimate son."

She had just returned from a trip abroad. When she heard that there was an "illegitimate son" in the family, she wanted to smash her suitcase over the head of that old bastard Xue.

She asked a friend and found out that the "illegitimate son" was a year older than her.

Xue Nanyin got even angrier.

She stormed home, only to be greeted by her mother, who affectionately took her hand and told her to call the "illegitimate son" big brother.

Xue Nanyin refused. Clutching her mother's hand, she loudly demanded that her mother divorce that old bastard Xue.

Just as things were getting out of control, the "illegitimate son" stepped in and timidly apologized.

It turned out he was the son of her father's close friend and her mother's best friend.

Xue Nanyin: ...My mistake.

Before Zhuang Mingyi's parents passed away, they told him that the head of the fabulously wealthy Xue family in Huayang was his godfather, and that he could turn to the Xue family for protection until he came of age.

Zhuang Mingyi agreed.

After his parents' funeral, he traveled alone to the capital, found the Xue family, and was welcomed into the family. But he never expected that this would lead the pampered little princess to misunderstand him.

For the first time, Zhuang Mingyi felt that coming here might have been a mistake, and that he would only cause trouble for this family.

As he wondered whether he should leave, the little princess who had wanted to tear him to pieces just moments earlier folded her arms and lifted her dainty chin. Like a haughty cat, she issued her command:

"Since your mommy and mine are best friends, I'll allow you to stay at our house for now."

At that moment, it was as if a warm stone had been tossed into Zhuang Mingyi's frozen heart.

From then on, in this bustling yet cold city, he had a harbor where he could shelter from the wind and rain.

Xue Nanyin was a little annoyed by this taciturn boy.

Not only had he transferred to her school and become her classmate, he had also stolen the title of most popular person in the whole school.

To top it off, his grades were way better than hers.

Following the principles of "helping those in need" and "making progress together," their teacher put them in a study group.

But Xue Nanyin was a little menace, always loud and bossy at school. Being at the bottom of the class was nothing new to her, so naturally, she refused to listen.

But at some point, that little menace actually started sitting quietly in her chair and studying.

The baseball bat that supposedly hit hard enough to kill someone was gone, replaced by Five Years of College Entrance Exams and Three Years of Mock Exams.

The unruly little witch had stopped chewing supposedly cool bubble gum and was diligently working on math problems.

Of course, old habits die hard for Xue Nanyin.

After only a few quiet days, the little menace was back to raising hell and stirring up trouble.

Their classmates knew all too well about the "sibling" relationship between Zhuang Mingyi and Xue Nanyin. Whenever they got the chance, they ran to Zhuang Mingyi to complain, hoping this reasonable-looking "big brother" would discipline his lawless "little sister."

But the lecture they expected never came.

The boy merely lifted his eyes, his gaze passing over everyone to land precisely on the girl who was shuffling over, looking a little guilty. He raised a hand and stroked the catlike head she obediently brought over for him to pet, smiling warmly.

"She's very well-behaved."

The girl blushed quietly, doing her best to hold back the smile threatening to spread across her face. Behind her, her tail had unconsciously risen and curled into a loop.

She was being doted on without a care in the world.

That's right. She was very well-behaved.
