[Spoiled, spirited little troublemaker x Scheming, reserved drama king]
She's rich, she does what she wants, and if she can solve it with her fists, she won't use words. If she can throw money at it, she won't waste her breath.
Others show off their talents; she shows off her spending power.
Others pretend to be modest; she makes a point of being down-to-earth and blatantly arrogant.
In short, Song Zhaozhao is nouveau riche.
From childhood on, if Song Zhaozhao wanted something, she got it.
Except for... Qi Yanran.
"Qi Yanran, I like you. Be my boyfriend."
"...No."
Song Zhaozhao thought Qi Yanran looked down on her deep down.
His indulgence and concessions weren't special affection at all. He'd simply been ignoring her.
Well, if that was the case, she wasn't going to waste any more time or energy on him.
After all, the world didn't revolve around Qi Yanran.
*
Qi Yanran had always believed the world revolved around him, and that he could have anything he wanted.
For example... Song Zhaozhao.
When he was ten, Qi Yanran got a new neighbor: a little girl who loved wearing pink princess dresses.
She was adorable, with sparkling eyes. As she ran, her skirt fluttered, and she hurriedly pressed a half-melted fruit candy into his palm.
Like a little princess from a fairy tale, she burst into his life without warning, wearing a bright smile.
It was only later that Qi Yanran learned that little princesses weren't all as gentle and well-behaved as the ones in books.
His little princess was radiant and bold, free-spirited and mischievous.
Song Zhaozhao was unlike anyone else.
She was his alone, his little princess.
