When Lu Shengxiao was ten, she tricked Xu Zhuoyao out of a candy, and it wasn't just a candy.
A year later, Lu Shengxiao moved away, and they lost touch until the first day of high school, when she appeared in front of him again.
Recently, Xu Zhuoyao noticed that Lu Shengxiao was acting strangely. She avoided him whenever she saw him, and a blush would appear on her face. He guessed that she had probably fallen for him, and was rather pleased with himself.
One day after school, Lu Shengxiao called out to him.
"Xu Zhuoyao, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time."
"Yeah?"
"I've liked your older brother for ages. Can you help me win him over?"
"?" It all happened so suddenly.
Two weeks later, the young master couldn't stand seeing Lu Shengxiao getting so close to his brother. He cornered her, all haughty with just a hint of vulnerability. "Why do you like him?"
"Huh?" She avoided his gaze. "I guess he's handsome?"
"What about me?" The young master's bravado faded. "I'm pretty good too, right?"
"?"
"Why can't you like me?"
The female lead doesn't really like the older brother. She just wants to provoke the male lead.
The male lead was a bit of a crybaby as a child, and had a sharp tongue. As an adult, he turns out to be a schemer.
