Everyone at No. 1 High School knew that Xu Xi had fallen for Shen Mo and had been pursuing him for two years.
Shen Mo was the school's heartthrob: handsome, good-looking, from a good family, and always first in his grade. He was the perfect dream guy in every girl's heart.
Xu Xi was a rebellious, flamboyant, dazzling, beautiful young lady who was terrible at school.
Everyone thought her one-sided pursuit was doomed to fail.
Shen Mo could never fall for an empty-headed young lady like her.
But she succeeded.
She pursued him for two years, and they dated for just one month.
A month later, she dumped him without a second thought.
From beginning to end, Miss Xu's devotion had all been a lie.
Her obsession with Shen Mo, her infatuation, it was all an act.
She only wanted to drag him down from his pedestal and ruin his perfect image. She only wanted to see him fall at her feet.
She was just luring him into becoming infatuated with her.

On a rainy day, Shen Mo pressed Xu Xi against the wall, his eyes bloodshot.
His usually crisp, immaculate white shirt was rumpled and clung to him, soaked through by the rain.
"Xixi, from beginning to end, really, from beginning to end, was all of it fake?"
--
When they met again, the Xu family had gone bankrupt, and Xu Xi had fallen from her lofty position as a young lady to having nothing at all.
Shen Mo stood before her, smoking a cigarette with a wicked air, his dark eyes fixed intently on her.
Then, as if she were prey, he reached out to her.
He wanted her, to possess her and keep her captive.

One-year age gap.
Male lead: devoted and loyal, but he can turn dark.
Female lead: alluring, rebellious, and a little wicked.
Both are virgins. Happy ending.
Theme: Devotion.
