Please, please add this to your reading list. I'm on my knees thanking all you sweethearts. I really need advance readers, sob sob.
Cheerful, optimistic, spoiled sweetheart x tough on the outside, tender-hearted mom friend
A princess who grew up in a glass jar x a poor high school boy forced to grow up too soon
Fang Feifei, the little princess of the Fang family, is famous for being delicate and pampered, unable to endure the slightest hardship.
She's afraid of being tired, of hardship, of cold, of heat, of pain, of dying, and even of bugs. Fussy and spoiled, she really is a princess and the pea.
Then, one day, this pampered girl is suddenly dumped in a remote northern town where not even the birds bother to shit.
The sky is gray, the roads are filthy, and the houses are crumbling.
Most of the plaster has peeled off the walls, and white dust keeps falling like snow in June, landing miserably on her heart.
A voice inside her weeps and begs to escape, but Fang Feifei grits her teeth and bravely stays.

After moving in with the nanny who supposedly held her as a baby, Fang Feifei does her best to "survive."
She's spoiled, but she's not stupid. She quickly figures out who's in charge of the household and starts finding ways to butter up Xiang Yusheng.
Her biggest hope is that he'll cook the rice a little softer and make the food a little less salty, and not put in so many chilies...

After growing wild for eighteen years, Xiang Yusheng has become rough around the edges and used to a life of hardship. He's like a weed you can find growing anywhere in the wilderness. No matter how barren the land, give him a little dew and he'll survive.
His sharp eyes are fierce and cocky, full of menace.
He wears a black T-shirt year-round, a cigarette dangling from his lips, looking roguish and carefree.
Xiang Yusheng doesn't expect love, and he doesn't believe in that sort of thing.
His only requirement for a partner is that she be sensible, easygoing, and no trouble. He has no time to wait on a princess.
Unfortunately, things don't go as planned.
He knows full well that Fang Feifei is the exact opposite of what he wants in a partner.
Yet somehow, he falls for the one person he should never have dared to want.
[Extra Scene]
"What, you want to kiss me?" Xiang Yusheng put out his cigarette, his expression cold and unapproachable, his gaze unreadable.
"In your dreams!" Fang Feifei snapped, embarrassed and angry, taking a step back. "Can you stop imagining things all day long?"
The boy softly savored the last four words she said.
Then his lips suddenly curled into a smile. He leaned toward her without warning, his voice tinged with amusement.
His low, husky voice drifted into her ear. "Actually, every night I'm imagining things about Feifei."
