Story blurb

They say there's only a thin veil between a girl and the boy she pursues. Ji Xiaoliang finally won over the boy she had a crush on.

She thought it would be a sweet little romance.

But she waited and waited.

The guy in front of her could actually fall asleep during a romantic movie, and even their kisses only happened because she forced herself on him.

After one disappointment too many, she roared, "We're breaking up! We have to break up! Go date your basketball instead!"

Shan Xuan was furious. "Fine, let's break up. Whoever asks to get back together is a loser."

She thought they were just giving each other the cold shoulder, until she saw Ji Xiaoliang eating and doing homework with other guys every day, smiling sweeter than honey. Jealousy made him come apart at the seams.

One night, Ji Xiaoliang had just stepped outside when she saw Shan Xuan standing at her door, a wine bottle in one hand and his eyes red at the corners.

Ji Xiaoliang's eyes widened, and she stammered, "We can... talk this out... A gentleman uses his words, not his fists..."

Shan Xuan pulled her into his arms and murmured hoarsely in her ear, pleading, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. Can we please not break up?"

Story blurb

1. Because she was rebellious, Li Xiaoju dyed her hair a shade of "forgiveness green" before the new term and showed up at school.

That day at the flag-raising platform, two people made an impression on the whole school.

Qi Jiayi, the top student in their grade, and Li Xiaoju, a stinking heap of trash.

He was aloof and self-possessed. His shirt buttons were always fastened neatly right up to the top one, and even his hair gave off an air of indifference.

And somehow, he was exactly the sort of person Li Xiaoju couldn't stand.

She told her underlings, "That polite little guy? I could take him out with one hand tied behind my back."

After that, she tried every trick in the book to mess with him, but he dodged them all and even hit back twice as hard.

Li Xiaoju decided to wave the white flag. This polite guy was no ordinary pushover! She had to stay away from him!

But not long after she started keeping her distance, the boy cornered her by the stairs, looking down at her with a low, amused chuckle.

"Don't stop. Come and take me out."

2.

Later on, Li Xiaoju was seen studying with him in the classroom every day, asking after his health, and bringing him food and drinks. She was incredibly attentive.

One of her underlings asked, "Sis Ju, did you really surrender and raise the white flag that easily?"

Li Xiaoju smacked him on the head. "What are you talking about? How could your Sis Ju surrender so easily?"

It's just that I've been getting blackmailed lately. T.T

Damn it. Revenge is a dish best served ten years later. One day, I'll make him eat dirt.

Qi's inner thought, disdainfully: Let's see who makes whom eat dirt.
