--^3^--

Rumor has it that liberal arts ace Chi Cheng once fought five students at once, beating up a gang of thugs from another school who came looking for trouble.

He also carries his own personal air conditioner in class, never letting anyone get close. He's a cold, hard ice sculpture.

That is, until transfer student Chi Yuan arrives.

As soon as he shows up, he takes the top spot on the grade rankings and becomes the class's universally acknowledged new heartthrob.

Those were all things that used to belong to Chi Cheng.

Worse, Chi Cheng gets in trouble with the teachers several times because of him.

A few days later, Chi Yuan shows up at school with a bruised and swollen face.

And so the whole school learns that the two liberal arts aces can't stand each other in private, constantly competing and fighting like fire and water.

One day, Chi Cheng falls down, and Chi Yuan is the first to turn red-eyed. In front of everyone, he scoops Chi Cheng up and rushes frantically to the school clinic, more worried than if his girlfriend had been hurt.

Chi Cheng, the ice sculpture who always keeps people at arm's length, hooks an arm around Chi Yuan's neck and buries his whole face in the crook of Chi Yuan's neck, leaving only one burning-red ear visible...

Huh? Weren't they supposed to hate each other and be as incompatible as fire and water???

Timid, pain-sensitive, talkative, warm-hearted top x bold, perceptive ice-sculpture top student bottom

Next novel: Pretending to Be a Slacker, I Won Over the Top Student. Blurb:

Finals are coming up, and a new student transfers into the class. Everyone is stunned when they see him.

Isn't this Lin Congyu, who got into a fight with Wei Tunan at the start of the school year and then transferred to the liberal arts class?

When enemies meet, their eyes blaze with hatred.

Then, during a chemistry lab test, Lin Congyu blows up the lab bench.

Wei Tunan claps his hands in delight: "Beautiful!"

Lin Congyu raises an eyebrow, unimpressed: "That's yours!"

Both of them are dragged into the hallway by their teacher to cool off, and both get zeroes!

Wei Tunan glares at him and demands: "Why did you come back instead of staying in the liberal arts class as their top student?"

Lin Congyu sneers: "Obviously, I'm here to knock you down and take first place!"

At the final exams, Lin Congyu, who vowed to take first place, gets zeroes in all three science subjects. He's first in the class, from the bottom.

Wei Tunan snorts: "That was satisfying! You lost!"

Lin Congyu arches an eyebrow: "Don't rush. We've got plenty of time!"

They move up to their third year of high school, and Lin Congyu is still drifting through life. Wei Tunan finally can't take it anymore.

One day, Wei Tunan pins Lin Congyu against a wall and angrily mocks him:

"Lin Congyu, are you joking around with your future? If there's something you don't understand, why not beg me to teach you?"

Lin Congyu slaps his sweep of competition awards against Wei Tunan's forehead and raises an eyebrow:

"Wei Tunan, why don't you beg me to teach you how to date?"

Wei Tunan keeps a cool, unreadable expression, but inside he's laughing wildly. Lin Congyu, that blockhead, has finally caught on.

Now that he's finally caught on, Lin Congyu starts giving Wei Tunan one-on-one dating lessons.

But, uh, why does this seem to be going in the wrong direction?

Mr. Lin's Dating Lesson No. 1: How do you give a girl just the right amount of tender care during the most vulnerable days of her month?

Mr. Lin's Dating Lesson No. 2: How do you understand when a girl says one thing but means another?

Mr. Lin's Dating Lesson No. 3: ...

Wei Tunan is about to explode: "You dense idiot! You've got no common sense!"

Coming soon: Odd Couple

Fang Pu first officially meets Tu Yu just before the welcome party for the school's Hanfu Club. The club members all say that the dashing, elegant club president ought to personally greet new members at the door. That's the only way to make a good impression.

At the time, Tu Yu shows up wearing a baggy white undershirt like the ones old men wear to practice tai chi. He's got wooden clogs on his feet, and his still fairly thick hair is tied into two pitifully tiny Nezha buns. A red band is tied around his forehead, and a pink disposable children's mask covers his sun-darkened face.

Fang Pu is practically sneering at him inside, though he still wears a bright, welcoming smile. He thinks this guy must have joined the Hanfu Club because it's full of beautiful women. But could girls really be interested in someone dressed so ridiculously?

Gazing into those unusually clear eyes,

Fang Pu: "Your name is Yu Tu, right?"

Tu Yu: "My name is Tu Yu, Senior Fang!"

Tu Yu's Mandarin isn't very standard.

Fang Pu: "What? Bald Donkey?"

The girls around them burst out laughing.

Later, it turns out that this oddball really doesn't catch the girls' attention. Somehow, though, he leaves a deep mark on Fang Pu's heart.

In the years that follow, Fang Pu is swept away in the arms of this ridiculous bald donkey, to the point that the guy even plucks the hair off his forehead. Still, Fang Pu never figures out why that ridiculous Tu Yu caught his eye back then, or how more than ten years could fly by in a blink.
