[Bad-Tempered Heartthrob vs. Brooding, Possessive Mom Friend]
Zhang Yushu has been dreaming a lot lately. In his dreams, his roommate is the male lead of an old-fashioned romance novel.
The book features Zhao Mingshu, an unforgettable heartthrob of a female supporting character. The male lead loves her, the villain tries to force her into a relationship, and in the end she dies young in a burglary.
When Zhang Yushu wakes up back in reality, the beautiful female lead is standing right in front of him, glaring at him in displeasure because of a misunderstanding.
He's just a background character in the book, working diligently every day and watching the main characters' romantic entanglements on the side.
At first, Zhao Mingshu can't stand people like Zhang Yushu.
He's from a poor family, gets excellent grades, and is hardworking and ambitious. He's exactly the kind of "ideal child" her parents have praised since she was little.
What's more, everyone agrees he's handsome, he's incredibly good-tempered, and Zhao Mingshu can easily get him to do what she wants.
Apart from being poor right now, he has no real flaws. That makes him easy to handle, too.
That is, until Zhang Yushu is recognized by his birth family and becomes a young master worth billions.
Zhao Mingshu: ! Now he has no flaws
Zhang Yushu once felt ashamed to admit that he liked Zhao Mingshu. He collected her personal belongings and secretly disrupted the romance destined for her in the original book, yet he still eagerly came running when she said, "I don't need a boyfriend. I need a dog."
At first, he just wanted to work hard and escape the muddy fate laid out for him. Later, all he wanted was to take care of Zhao Mingshu.
Theme: Love takes initiative.
