(Original blurb) Chu Tingxu is a gifted artist, but from childhood she was groomed to inherit the Chu Group. By her second year of high school, she could take it no longer and ran off alone to attend a school in the small county town where her grandmother lived.
While studying there, she kept hearing about the school bully, Qi Huiyan.
"He's just a street thug."
"I heard he got another disciplinary notice."
"Look, look! That's him, with another bruise on his face."
Following their words, Chu Tingxu spotted a boy with a distant air, a slender, lanky frame, and slightly bronzed skin.
Their eyes met by chance. His gaze was indifferent, his expression numb.
She thought their paths would never cross again. Who would have guessed that driving off a few thugs would make her his savior?
From then on, Chu Tingxu gained a shadow, and one who was practically a school bully himself.
"Can you stop following me?"
"Okay."
"..."
"Then why are you standing a few meters away?"
"Just passing by."
"..."
But the good times didn't last. Chu Tingxu was discovered, and her family forcibly took her back. The goodbye she never got to say became her sudden disappearance without a word.
From then on, she was a scar in his heart.
When they met again, she was a branch manager, and he was a low-ranking employee at her branch.
Later, she pushed him onto the bed, picked up her paintbrush again, and carefully traced the lines of his body.
*Gifted artist x school bully who follows her everywhere
*He falls for her first, and the male lead apologizes the moment he realizes he's wrong
