[One-on-one romance / both leads have no prior romantic entanglements] [Image-conscious, self-interested beauty vs. arrogant, aloof, secretly passionate straight man] [He chases her after the breakup / rekindled romance]

In her sophomore year, Ji Qingli finally picked the most enviable boyfriend after searching high and low: Fu Qingyue, a senior who had already graduated.

They were perfectly matched in looks, and even their names sounded perfect together. For a while, the news that the architecture department's campus beauty was dating someone was all anyone could talk about.

Fu Qingyue was hired by a publicly listed company in his senior year, with an annual salary of a million. Just like his looks, he left everyone else far behind. As a sophomore, Ji Qingli began living in a spacious apartment overlooking Chang'an Avenue, with designer bags, designer clothes, outings to upscale venues, and countless jewels and exquisite outfits...

Ji Qingli thought her life was going as smoothly as ever. Her family was already preparing for them to register their marriage as soon as they graduated.

Life was easy as pie!

But perhaps fate was jealous of her. After getting through her senior year and landing a job where she could begin realizing her dream of becoming a top designer...

Fu Qingyue quit!

He said, "Qingqing, this isn't the life I want. You'll support me, won't you?"

He said, "Qingqing, I'll make lots of money and buy you yachts and planes."

He said, "Qingqing, someday..."

Ji Qingli's dream shattered. Cutting off what he was about to say, she snapped, "I don't want to wait for someday. Fu Qingyue, even if you have to get down on your knees, you're getting your job back. Right now."

She's a carnivore. What good is living on promises?

Fu Qingyue's eyes reddened. He felt his girlfriend didn't understand him. He had dreams and ambitions of his own.

Ji Qingli: Get a grip. You should be aiming for an annual salary of ten million, or even a hundred million. What are you starting a business for? Hurry up and get your job back.

The two gave each other the cold shoulder...

In the living room where she could see the Forbidden City, Ji Qingli began seeing the black screen of a computer; text messages showing her boyfriend was so broke he had to take out a loan; and him paying the bill with someone else's card...

She couldn't take it anymore. "Fu Qingyue, go start your own business. We're breaking up."

Fu Qingyue was thunderstruck. In disbelief, he said, "So now that I'm broke, you want to break up with me? Ji Qingli, I didn't know you were that kind of person."

Ji Qingli looked impatient. "That's right, that's exactly the kind of person I am. Who would stay with you when you're broke? Get lost..."

Fu Qingyue: "Don't go. I'll work hard and make money. I didn't mean what I said that day."

Ji Qingli: "Well, I meant what I said. Get lost, Fu Qingyue."

She was so furious. Whenever she went out, people asked whether her boyfriend, whom she used to be so proud of, had been laid off or gone bankrupt, and why she had stopped buying the latest bags.

It was all Fu Qingyue's fault. He couldn't just enjoy the good life they had.
