He's the Best at Acting Sweet

[Brash, timid, and two-faced green-tea male lead with a jealous streak vs. smart, slightly straightforward, truly black-bellied demon queen heroine]

#A wild wolf pretending to be a puppy until you cry#

#A textbook example of acting obedient. Everyone who's seen it approves#

#I thought I had the upper hand, but I'd fallen into his layers upon layers of schemes#

A transfer student arrived at He'an No. 1 High School. In just two weeks, his cool, badass looks had captured the hearts of the girls at school, and he lived up to expectations by claiming the title of campus heartthrob.

Scene one: A jealous student posted, "This new heartthrob has never been beaten up by society. Sooner or later, he'll fall into Yan's hands."

Unexpectedly, Luo Yan returned to school half a month later, and on her very first day on duty, she ran into the new heartthrob.

He'an students: It's settled, it's settled. The Discipline Minister is going to make her move.

Who could have known that Tang Jian, who always fought several people at once and never smiled at anyone, would turn all soft and ask Luo Yan for protection the moment he saw her, complaining in a pitiful voice, "Those guys are picking on me."

His opponents: "..."

Damn it, you little punk, are you seriously putting on an act in front of us?

You beat us up and still pretend to be innocent!

For a moment, the scars on the faces of the guys across from him seemed to reveal their sorrow.

Scene two: After the school anniversary celebration, photos of Luo Yan onstage flooded the school forum. All kinds of ship pairings sprang up, challenging the official couple, Tang Jian and Luo Yan.

Jealousy taking over, Tang Jian posted from his verified account:

Jian-Yan is the one true pairing. Get to know them.

The lively forum fell instantly silent. Everyone wondered if the big shot's account had been hacked.

But the jealous party had already closed the forum, pulled Luo Yan over, and pinned her against him.

He always smiled at Luo Yan, but now his eyes brimmed with dark emotion. His mind flashed to the stage photos, his Adam's apple bobbed, and in a low, husky voice, he couldn't help asking, "Yanyan, I want to kiss you. Is that okay?"

"..." Are you stealing my line?

Before she could say a word, an intense, uncontrollable kiss landed on her lips, silencing Luo Yan.

Kissed until she could barely fight back, Luo Yan asked herself for the thousandth time: Why had she ever thought Tang Jian was a little puppy? This guy was a wolf, through and through!

Reading guide: 1. They dote on each other. The male lead has a crush on her, and the female lead openly pursues him.

2. No angst or misunderstandings, just sweetness from beginning to end.

3. The male lead is an expert at playing innocent while hiding his true nature. He acts obedient throughout the early story, but only around the heroine.

4. The heroine is four or five months older than the male lead, so it's a sort of older-girl-younger-boy romance.

Take Me Home

[Sunny, life-loving puppy-like male lead vs. sickly, world-weary female lead with great acting skills and an overwhelming possessive streak]

When Chi Qixi was eight, she saw Jiang Xiannian. She was in a car, and he was by the roadside.

The small boy crouched on the ground, chewing on a bun. His hair was a mess, and his clothes were filthy and clung to his body. He looked like a stray dog with nowhere to go.

She stared at him for a long time, until her grandfather noticed something was wrong. "Xiaoxi?"

Chi Qixi got out of the car. The pale little girl, as fragile as a piece of jade, stood by the road and calmly asked, "Do you want to come home with me?"

The boy, who had been devouring his bun, froze. He blinked, then nodded firmly. "I do!"

At eighteen, Jiang Xiannian stayed by Chi Qixi's side. He made her breakfast with love, helped her take notes, bought brown sugar water when she had her period, and even carried her when they walked. He looked after her until she was practically helpless.

Everyone said the Chi family's adopted son would brave fire and water for the Chi family's young lady, that he feared neither climbing a mountain of blades nor plunging into a sea of flames.

But no one expected that after the old master of the Chi family passed away and Chi Qixi took control, her very first decision would be to kick Jiang Xiannian out of the Chi family.

Later, when she was twenty-eight, Jiang Xiannian had left the Chi family and used his own abilities to work his way back into high society. The guests gathered at Chi Qixi's birthday banquet. Handsome beyond compare and radiating nobility, he stole everyone's attention the moment he appeared.

Jiang Xiannian walked up to Chi Qixi and instinctively adjusted her dress, just as he had done years ago. Meeting her scrutinizing gaze, he bent down and asked softly, "Miss, can you take me home?"

After a long silence, she nodded. "All right."
