He is a hurricane that barges into her peaceful life: unreasonable, relentless, and determined to have her.
Whenever Chen Runsheng looks at Zhuo Er, she thinks of a snake in the wild: suffocating, coiling around her, trying to crush her before swallowing her whole. At the same time, he is refined and courteous, impeccable in word and deed, leaving her nothing to criticize.
Because his face is exactly like her boyfriend's, their next few encounters are pleasant enough, and Zhuo Er gradually lets down her guard around Chen Runsheng.
Then he bit her.
One day, her friend got drunk and insisted on having her nails painted. Chen Runsheng kindly offered to help. Zhuo Er politely declined and stressed that she had a boyfriend. He smiled. “I want to paint your nails. I don't care whether you have a boyfriend.”
Later, they ran into each other at the school theater. He suggested showing Zhuo Er around campus, but she didn't want to spend too much time with him and suggested he invite a friend along.
Chen Runsheng looked at her with dark eyes. “Seems like someone has a boyfriend.”
Then he asked, “Do you think I can win her over?”
Zhuo Er thought Mr. Chen's moral compass seemed a little off. “Probably not. Didn't you say she has a boyfriend?”
He shrugged. “I'm pursuing her. What does her boyfriend have to do with it?”
Zhuo Er bluntly told him that wasn't right. He changed the subject: “What about you? Can I pursue you?”

One day, Chen Runsheng dressed in his boyfriend's usual clothes and went on a date with her, wearing the exact same face. When she caught him, he remained perfectly calm and asked, “If I were your boyfriend, who would you choose: me or Chen Xuanyu?”
Zhuo Er pointed to the door and told him to leave, saying plainly that she barely knew him.
But that wasn't the end of their entanglement. Driven by possessiveness, her boyfriend resorted to any means necessary to put her friends in danger, just to turn her against them.
With nowhere else to turn, Zhuo Er went to Chen Runsheng for help.
He smiled and loosened her hair ribbon. “What about now? Do we know each other yet?”
The hero has three things missing.
No morals, no ethics, no manners.

★ [A self-disciplined heroine with high moral standards | A brooding, insanely jealous hero] [Wolf-and-rabbit, ghostly romance]
Lu Xiyin has lived by the principles of self-discipline and propriety her entire life. She never makes a misstep or speaks out of turn, the very model of perfection.
He first met Lu Xiyin at a friend's art exhibition. The floodgates of memory opened, and he remembered: she was his little aunt.
The outside world calls Jiang Xuxing volatile and ruthless, a bona fide mad dog. No one knows that Jiang Xuxing is consumed by jealousy. When he saw a female classmate hook her arm through Lu Xiyin's, jealousy instantly burned through his reason. His foot pressed firmly and relentlessly on the accelerator, all the way to the floor.
That woman shouldn't touch his little aunt!
She's the one in the wrong!
He lied constantly! He claimed to love the wood grain in woodblock prints and the starlight in mineral-pigment paintings. He said that Dostoevsky's abyss and Marquez's fever dreams were his spiritual homeland.
It was all a lie!
He hated all of it.
But his little aunt loved it.
He had to keep up the act and hide his tail if he wanted to stay by her side for a long, long time.

Jiang Xuxing whispered beside Lu Xiyin's ear, “Little Aunt, you have to keep me on a tight leash.”
