[The darling everyone loves x the great troublemaker]
At seventeen, the female lead stands on the awards stage holding a scholarship, the classic child everyone else's parents wish they had.
At seventeen, the male lead is a notorious school bully. His schoolbag holds everything but books, and even his family spending a fortune to pray to Buddha can't make him mend his ways.
On the day they graduate from high school, the female lead, wearing her favorite white dress, finds the male lead in an alley, getting ready to pick a fight.
Female lead: "Is the male lead here? How did you do on the college entrance exam? Didn't you say you'd be my boyfriend after graduation?"
The male lead drops the brick in his hand on the spot, opens a pack of White Rabbit Creamy Candy, and points fiercely at the others. "If any of you bastards tell anyone, I'll chop you up."
Then he turns around, smooths the wrinkles from his clothes, and offers the candy to the female lead.
"I did all right. I should be able to go to B City with you."
"About being your boyfriend... I'll think about it."
The other hooligans: ...
Don't think we didn't see your smile flying up to the sky and shoulder to shoulder with the sun!
Think about it, my ass! None of us studies, so how did you secretly get into college and get a girlfriend too?!
.
When their friends first hear about it, they all think the female lead has gone crazy.
Of all the kids who grew up together, the male lead is the biggest hopeless case.
But the female lead doesn't see it that way.
They don't know how he ran three streets in a snowstorm just to buy her hand warmers.
They don't know how he learned to cook so well that he became the family chef, all to take care of her poor health, even though he used to know nothing but instant noodles.
In everyone else's eyes, he's the spoiled young master of the X family. But to the female lead, he's the only light in her youth.
He gives her all his devotion. He's an imperfect gentleman no one else can compare to.
