Presence

Blurb 1:

There are two big names at the high school.

Gu Yi never misses an opportunity to fight, smoke, or skip class, yet he’s a bona fide top student. His parents divorced and remarried, leaving him to live alone. He’s icy toward everyone, lives like some figure out of ancient mythology, and has a terrible personality. Yet fate favored him with the face of a campus heartthrob, making it impossible to hate him.

Zhou Xian also never misses an opportunity to fight, smoke, or skip school, but he’s a bona fide academic underachiever. He comes from a happy family and has an extremely open-minded mom. Though he loves peace, he somehow became the school’s top bully, and even his friends are a little afraid of him. Fate also blessed him with devastating good looks, but there’s one person he just can’t stand: his dad.

These two completely different boys gradually find themselves drawn to each other. Under one another’s influence, they finally find their place in their families, move forward hand in hand, and embark on a sweet romance.

Blurb 2:

Gu Yi’s phone must have it in for him. It got snatched right off the street on the very first day he bought it, and the “thief’s accomplice” turned out to know him.

The next day at school, just as Gu Yi stepped out of the restroom, a familiar figure came toward him. Gu Yi froze.

“Morning,” said the guy named Zhou Xian.

Gu Yi had no interest in chatting with him. He glanced at him, turned sideways to pass, but Zhou Xian grabbed him by the arm.

“Are you taking arts or science?”

Gu Yi removed Zhou Xian’s hand from his shoulder and patted the spot he’d grabbed, as if he found it disgusting. “What’s it to you?”

Back in class, Gu Yi discovered they were classmates!

When will this cycle of revenge ever end? Better to become deskmates and fall in love!

Theme: Two boys meet at the best age of their lives, fall for each other, and grow together through each other’s companionship, becoming better people. Under one another’s influence, they finally understand the meaning of being there for someone and learn to cherish those around them, whether family, friends, or lovers.
