An Atypical Model Student

*School setting ("villainess," loyal dog) + urban setting (reunion after years apart, love and hate) *Skilled at manipulating people's hearts (a sweet, innocent facade, but highly intelligent and calculating) vs. obsessive and sensitive (quiet and aloof, devoted loyal dog) On the first day Jiang Yanyue transfers schools, she notices her new deskmate, who arrives late. Her new deskmate has a strikingly handsome face, but it's covered in bruises, giving him a broken look, as if he'd just come from a fight. There's a bruise on his tall nose, and a cut at the corner of his mouth. The fresh wound is still healing, leaving a long gash. Her new deskmate doesn't talk much and keeps to himself. He's even more distant toward her, the new transfer student. She offers him a bandage, but all she gets in return is a cold, “Don't touch me.” The new transfer student gets top grades, is beautiful, and has a lovely personality. She's popular and adored by everyone. A model student through and through. Her arrival completely stirs up his stagnant life. She approaches him with a purpose. He knows she's using him, but he doesn't ask why. He knowingly lets himself fall. The boy is sincere and pure, willing to do anything for her. Little by little, Jiang Yanyue realizes that her using him has already turned into genuine affection. She thinks things are finally going well, but an unexpected turn of events shatters her emotional defenses. An irreversible tragedy has already come to pass, and she chooses to run away. She says cruel things to him, then disappears from his life with a decisiveness that is almost cruel. They meet again years later. The moment their eyes meet, his eyes turn red. Jiang Yanyue steels herself and refuses to acknowledge him, but he holds on to her with a desperate grip. He is like an enraged wolf, claws bared as he snarls at her. “Jiang Yanyue, you have no heart.” He thinks she has no heart, yet insists on demanding one from her. He says he hates her. He uses every means to threaten and coerce her, but all he wants is to keep her by his side. They are two mirrors facing each other. Deep down, they're both lunatics. Things to know: This is a story about two little bitter melons saving each other and growing together. The heroine is highly intelligent and no pushover, but not very athletic. She has flaws and isn't perfect. Premise: A story of redemption. You can be yourself in any form, and you deserve to be loved.
