Campus to city | Second chance romance | True love above all
Composed and reserved vs. arrogant and brazen
A deeply devoted, ambitious schemer vs. a carefree, gifted young master
"When he smiles, you can tell he grew up surrounded by adoration: a free-spirited, sharp-edged winner in life."
-
Zhou Baiyu had never believed in love at first sight. Yet many years later, he could still clearly remember the first time Shen Qingcha entered his world.
Only then did he realize that his world had begun to change from that day on.
-
Unrequited love is like a weed in the corner, unseen but growing wild.
"Can a weed in the corner bask in the light, too?" Shen Qingcha's eyes shone with determination in the dark.
Zhou Baiyu reached out, resting the back of his hand against her lips, his breath burning hot.
He cut her off. "Tough grass grows into the wind. It has never feared the dark."
When they got together, the girl remained composed and restrained, saying considerately, "If you get tired of me, we can end it."
Later, the young man pinned her against the wall, his eyes bloodshot. "You're the one who got tired of me."
Shen Qingcha, you're the one who didn't want me.
The girl said nothing. She turned and walked away, decisive and unhesitating.
-
They were apart for a long time.
So long that when they met again, Shen Qingcha no longer had to quietly ride the waves of his emotions from across a sea of people.
In the second everyone held their breath, Shen Qingcha's back stiffened.
"Which of your exes did you love the most?"
Of course it had to be something like that.
Watching her sit there so primly, Zhou Baiyu couldn't help finding it amusing. He leaned his right arm against the back of the booth seat and, amid a chorus of gasps, slipped it around Shen Qingcha's neck, drawing her close.
The alarm in Shen Qingcha's eyes met his. At that moment, Zhou Baiyu understood all too clearly just how awful he could be.
She heard him say, "My current girlfriend."
