Blurb:
Stubborn, wooden-headed girl vs. obedient, mad dog of a man
Female protagonist's perspective:
Yu Nian lost her mother young, was abandoned by her father, and grew up at the mercy of others, drifting from place to place.
For the first fourteen years, the only person by her side was a brother who shared neither parent with her. Then, in her fifteenth year, she met Lu Xinghui, whom everyone else called aloof and cold.
But as Yu Nian got to know Lu Xinghui, she realized the rumors were all false. Lu Xinghui stuck to her like a dog-skin plaster.
As they spent more time together, Yu Nian learned that Lu Xinghui had loved her for a long time.
She couldn't believe anyone in the world could love her. By the time she was ready to accept it, she realized she couldn't wait for him anymore.
Male protagonist's perspective:
Lu Xinghui first met Yu Nian in middle school.
Yu Nian was a star at school: good grades and beautiful.
Lu Xinghui thought he was different from everyone else, that he wouldn't fall for her. He never expected to get hit by that face-slapping so quickly.
Lu Xinghui was mistaken for the person Yu Nian thought had confessed to her.
Yu Nian: "I don't want to date, and I definitely won't like someone with bad grades."
Embarrassed and furious, Lu Xinghui silently watched this girl named Yu Nian. As he watched, he realized he'd fallen for her.
He went to great lengths to confess, only to be rejected without mercy.
Lu Xinghui thought he would never see Yu Nian again.
Until the day they reunited in high school.
Lu Xinghui thought he'd moved on from Yu Nian, but he never expected to love her so deeply.
Extra scene:
One rainy night, Lu Xinghui set aside his pride and worked up the courage to confess to Yu Nian.
He took an umbrella and planned to go pick Yu Nian up, only to see the friend who'd told him he was already home standing under an umbrella with the woman he planned to confess to.
Lu Xinghui beat up his friend behind Yu Nian's back to stake his claim.
But what he never expected was that this friend wasn't a rival in love at all. He was her older schoolmate!
The girl he liked, Yu Nian, had a brother who shared neither parent with her?
Lu Xinghui, raised on pure love stories in anime and convinced that love meant being together for life, only smiled when he saw them. So what if the guy had known Yu Nian for a few more years?
So what if he had spent more time with Yu Nian than Lu Xinghui had?
Lu Xinghui thought: A person's life is long. In the future, he would surely be the one by Yu Nian's side, spending more time with her.
Extra scene two:
After Lu Xinghui defeated all his rivals, he looked at Yu Nian and realized that he hadn't been the only one taking the initiative to move closer. Yu Nian had been moving toward him, too.
But life didn't seem all that long after all. Compared to school, fame, and the future, Lu Xinghui didn't care about any of it. All he wanted was for Yu Nian to be part of his future.
Wherever Yu Nian was, Lu Xinghui would be there.
