This is a short story.

On Chu Zhangbin's first day after transferring schools, he skipped class.

He never expected to meet a girl who seemed to fall from the sky and come to his rescue.

Only she was the hero, and he was the beauty.

Later, they unexpectedly became deskmates. Chu Zhangbin began to see different colors in life through her, along with the pounding of his own heart.

Gong Feizhen had a crush on her deskmate. Maybe it was love at first sight, or maybe spending so much time together as deskmates had created that illusion.

Not many people knew about it, apart from her best friend and an online "friend."

It started when Gong Feizhen was playing a game with that person and another classmate. The person mocked her in the game chat: "No one likes a woman who won't listen. You'll never get a man acting like that..."

Gong Feizhen froze, then immediately sent him an eight-hundred-character rant through the game's private messages before deleting him from her friends list.

She thought that was the end of it.

The next day at school, she happened to see the phone in her deskmate's drawer and was shocked to discover that last night's online friend was none other than her deskmate!

My gentle, refined deskmate is actually a greasy, domineering CEO in the game?!!!

Mutual pining.

They are both adults by the time they get together.

They have a misunderstanding, and later on, the male lead will have to win the female lead back.

There's a reason for the male lead's greasy, domineering CEO behavior.

A gentle, sweet-looking girl who's a short-tempered big sister in games x an all-around capable guy who's reserved and gentle in front of her, but schemes behind the scenes to win her over.
