A frugal, desireless, low-key flirt with a bit of a screw-loose streak, the top × a hard-luck bottom who seems cold on the outside but is warm on the inside, with an unexpected adorable side
Before the semester began, Xi Mo set three rules for himself: no fighting, no jealousy, and no dating.
Hence, this book could also be called, “How Satisfying Is It to Have Your Face Slapped Three Times in One Semester?”
So satisfying!
That’s what happens when your boyfriend is handsome, a genius, and even says good morning and good night, then stays up late explaining problems to you...
Early on: “Year Two? Please. There’s still someone even better than him, isn’t there?”
Midway: “Wait, are you my mom? Why are you controlling me so much?”
Later: “Remember to remind me to say ‘I love you’ three times every day.”
P.S. This is a little abrupt, but I’ll include the old blurb too:
Xi Mo had at least spent a few years living like a young master. He’d always fought to be number one, and no one had ever been allowed to cross him.
Even though he was an illegitimate son who had risen to the top, he had outstanding instincts for finance and research. It was as if all the Chen family’s vast wealth had been made for a genius who excelled in business and foreign languages but was hopeless at everything else.
That is, until he got into Provincial No. 1 High School through the early-admission program with the city’s fifth-highest score. And his deskmate didn’t seem like an Omega.
His secret identity might not stay hidden much longer...
Xi Mo: The pressure...
Ji Cen: Go ahead and write. I’ll watch you (gazing at him affectionately).
Xi Mo: He’s making fun of me.
Ji Cen: Why did you stop writing?
Xi Mo: He thinks he knows everything.
Main couple: Ji Cen × Xi Mo. Special appearances by classmates driven to mental breakdowns by academic competitions!
Core theme: Keep a level head and be yourself.
