Shen Heng was an ordinary college student, but he unexpectedly caught the attention of Xie Qingci, a favored son of heaven.

Xie Qingci was cold and arrogant, with a violent temper. He'd pick a fight at the slightest provocation.

Shen Heng was cautious, afraid Xie Qingci would discover his secret.

But for all his precautions, on a quiet night, Xie Qingci still discovered it.

To protect his secret, Shen Heng was forced to stay by Xie Qingci's side.

Before he knew it, Shen Heng realized that his relationship with Xie Qingci had undergone a complete transformation.

Xie Qingci hid his clothes in the closet.

Xie Qingci made sure he ate three proper meals a day.

When Shen Heng met friends for dinner, Xie Qingci picked him up and dropped him off on schedule.

At night, Xie Qingci slept in the same bed as him.

Shen Heng thought something was off, but what was wrong with a buddy looking after him? What was wrong with a buddy sharing his bed? What was wrong with a buddy taking a look at him?

Only later did he realize that while he thought of Xie Qingci as a buddy, Xie Qingci thought of him as a little wife in bed.

Xie Qingci's mother died young, and his father was cold and indifferent. The only joy in his life was spending money recklessly and amusing himself at other people's expense.

In his dissolute, aimless life, everything bored him, until he met Shen Heng.

A model student who looked well-behaved but was secretly rebellious.

Xie Qingci saw through his disguise at a glance. Shen Heng was just like him.

So Xie Qingci went to great lengths to get close to Shen Heng and worm his way into his life. He wanted to see what would happen if the model student's rebellious side were unleashed.

But Xie Qingci hadn't expected Shen Heng to be so obedient, granting all his requests.

He didn't understand. Was the model student this kind and good to everyone?

Xie Qingci wanted to keep all that kindness to himself.

So they got together.

But Xie Qingci never expected to get dumped!!!

Xie Qingci spent three years like a walking corpse.

He made up his mind: he would shamelessly pursue Shen Heng again. He couldn't live without him.

A rebellious, low-IQ young master from Beijing's elite circle x a genius boy from a poor mountain village

A story about an empty-headed high school graduate who retakes the college entrance exam, turns his life around, and wins himself a beauty.

Gu Yan had been the focus of everyone's hopes since birth, so he was spoiled rotten. He skipped class, got into fights, and dated around, excelling at everything except studying, where he ranked near the bottom of the city.

Yet his family wanted more than anything for him to get into a good university.

So after he failed the college entrance exam twice, his family brought in a genius boy from a poor mountain village, Pei Jing, to tutor him and live with him.

On Pei Jing's first day at their house, Gu Yan deliberately gave him a hard time, pouring the Coke he'd been drinking down Pei Jing's collar.

But Pei Jing looked refined and frail. He pinned Gu Yan against the stairs and beat him up, warning him:

"Student Gu, your grandfather told me I can use any means necessary to make sure you study properly."

From then on, someone was always by Gu Yan's side, watching him skip class, play games, or date girls.

But... how did this person end up in his dreams?

In the dream, he and Pei Jing sat at a desk, working through a mock exam for their final year of high school.

Pei Jing stared at him enticingly and said,

"For every hard problem you get right, I'll kiss you once."

Pei Jing was born in a small mountain village. The most important thing in his life was to study hard and make something of himself.

But before that day could come, he dropped out of school and went home to farm.

He thought he was destined to live a mediocre life, struggling below the poverty line forever. Then a scholarship opportunity came along. He was brought to Beijing, with the Gu family covering all his expenses.

They had only one requirement: help the Gu family's second-generation heir get into university.

And that heir was a complete idiot, good for nothing but having fun.

To change his fate, Pei Jing kept an eye on Gu Yan at all times. They ate and lived together, and Pei Jing even stayed in the bathroom to watch him while he bathed.

He thought Gu Yan would loathe him for being assigned as the young master's live-in tutor.

But later, Gu Yan started clinging to him every day.

Under the pretext of studying hard.

Gu Yan was pestering Pei Jing for help with a problem again.

Pei Jing drew an auxiliary line with his pencil and asked, "Connect points A and B. Do you understand?"

Gu Yan played along. "Mm-hmm, got it. I've made the connection."

Pei Jing speechlessly told Gu Yan to move:

"I told you to draw an auxiliary line. Who told you to sit on my lap?"
