[Cool, Brilliant Beauty x Top-Tier, Puppy-Like Heartthrob (a lapdog doge.jpg)]
Jiang Nanyu is a notorious rich playboy at Linwai High. He coasts through life on his prestigious family background, loafing around and hanging out with a bunch of troublemaking friends in the bottom-ranked class.
Yet he happens to have a breathtakingly handsome face, making him the most alluring and dazzling presence at school.
One day, bored, he makes a bet with his friends: he will win over the cool beauty in the class next door within a month.
Pei Zhiyu, from the school's advanced science class, has ranked first in her year for as long as anyone can remember. Not only is she stunningly beautiful, she also skipped two grades at a young age and is exceptionally intelligent. Unfortunately, all she cares about is studying and research. Cool and aloof, she is so dull that hardly anyone catches her eye.
Jiang Nanyu assumes the cool beauty will be hard to win over, and prepares to shamelessly pester her. But to his surprise, she readily accepts his confession on the very day he asks.
During their relationship, Pei Zhiyu is nothing like the cold person everyone describes.
She smiles only at him, willingly sets aside her precious study time to watch his competitions, and stays by his side, giving him all her attention.
Jiang Nanyu thinks the cool beauty must have secretly been passionately in love with him all along.
Until one day, he brags to his friends about how much Pei Zhiyu likes him and clings to him, adding that he only pursued her because of a bet.
Pei Zhiyu hears every word from outside the door.
That day, she coldly and decisively breaks up with him.
Her reason: she still prefers smart guys.
-
They meet again in a lab at Lin University.
Heard that among the new doctoral students is a top-tier handsome guy, a legendary presence on campus.
Not only does he have a face worthy of a movie star, but he apparently switched from humanities to science for the gaokao, retook a year, and got into Lin University’s computer science department, one of the best in the country. He ranked first in his year all the way through, completing his bachelor's, master's, and doctorate in one continuous program.
Pei Zhiyu is unimpressed and focuses on the paper in front of her.
Until that familiar face appears before her, his mesmerizing, flirtatious eyes filled with a lazy smile as he shamelessly calls Pei Zhiyu, who is many years younger than him, "senior sister."
Pei Zhiyu: "..."
-
During a casual chat in the lab, the conversation turns to first love.
Jiang Nanyu declares, his face full of affection, that he has a first love he has never been able to forget, and that he switched from humanities to science back then to win her back.
Everyone is moved by his devotion and loyalty. Only Pei Zhiyu, sitting nearby, knows what a dog he is and remains unmoved.
When the topic turns to Pei Zhiyu, everyone wonders whether someone as indifferent to romance as her has ever dated.
When they learn that she has an ex-boyfriend, they ask what kind of guy can catch her eye.
Pei Zhiyu answers nonchalantly, "I'm shallow. His face just has to be decent."
Jiang Nanyu: "..."
That night, Jiang Nanyu corners her in an empty corridor and asks with a cheeky grin, "Senior sister, do you think my face is decent? Why don't you date me?"
#Studying hard for love :D
#He thought his girlfriend was crazy about him, but it turned out he was the one who fell the hardest
