[B-King bad boy x sweet, dramatic girl] [Childhood sweethearts to marriage first, love later]

Jiang Shuyue secretly kept someone dear to her heart for years, but she knew not every unrequited love would be returned.

Lin Xubai was the very picture of cool-headed intelligence: handsome, aloof, and exceptional. Jiang Shuyue, on the other hand, was a little princess spoiled by her family since childhood, willful and sheltered from the world.

When news of their marriage broke, almost no one thought the mismatched couple, married for the sake of their families, would work out. Everyone wondered how long Lin Xubai could put up with Jiang Shuyue's antics.

-

After two years as husband and wife in name only, Jiang Shuyue had tried her best to become the kind of person Lin Xubai liked.

But in the end, she realized that all of Lin Xubai's indulgence and pampering came from a sense of duty, not love.

Finally coming to her senses, Jiang Shuyue placed a divorce agreement in front of Lin Xubai. Ending things now would at least let them part with some dignity.

She had never seen Lin Xubai look like that before. The instant she mentioned divorce, his face turned icy, and his gaze grew dark and terrifying, as if soaked in ink.

But Lin Xubai still agreed to the divorce. His only condition was that he repay the Jiang family for raising him all these years before they divorced.

Jiang Shuyue was very magnanimous. "You've done more than enough for the Jiang family over the years. But if you're set on repaying us, I hope you can do it soon."

Lin Xubai gave a mocking laugh and loosened his tie. "Want it done quickly? Then why don't I repay you with myself?"

Lin Xubai believed that if he hadn't thought of Jiang Shuyue as a younger sister, he would never have had anything to do with a girl with her temperament.

Like a rose grown in a greenhouse, she needed to be pampered and protected. She couldn't withstand even the slightest wind or rain, and she was both delicate and troublesome.

But since the rose had already been planted in his garden, he had to take good care of it.

He hadn't expected that pampering her would become a habit. When Jiang Shuyue asked him for a divorce, Lin Xubai felt as if someone were about to steal his treasure away.

She'd been protected too well since childhood, so the little troublemaker had no idea how harsh the world could be and thought she'd be better off without him.

Then he, the man who had been both her older brother and her husband, would teach her a proper lesson, and show her how cruel people could be.

After graduating from high school, Lin Chuo planned to confess to the senior she had a crush on. But on the day she was getting ready to do it, she saw him embracing another girl with her own eyes.

Lin Chuo turned away in a daze, only to see Lu Bujin behind her. He coldly tossed out, "Dream on," then walked away.

Lin Chuo and Lu Bujin had been bitter rivals for the top spot in their grade for three years, and had ended up at the same university.

Being seen heartbroken by her rival, along with his "Dream on," became Lin Chuo's nightmare for the entire summer. She vowed to get her revenge.

Not long after university began, suitors started appearing one after another around both Lin Chuo and Lu Bujin. Unable to bear the attention, Lin Chuo seized the chance to offer Lu Bujin an olive branch.

"Since we're classmates, why don't we cover for each other? Don't worry, I'm not going to fall for you. You know I like someone else."

After considering it carefully, Lu Bujin finally nodded coolly.

Step by step, Lin Chuo lured Lu Bujin into the trap she'd set. When she realized he might be falling for her, she proposed ending their relationship.

"Lu Bujin, it was all an act. Don't go dreaming that I'd fall for you."

At last, Lin Chuo had her revenge for his taunt that day.

Later, during the school anniversary celebration, students returning to the changing room behind the auditorium found that they couldn't open its door.

Inside, Lin Chuo had only just pulled off half of her stage costume. Lu Bujin had her trapped between his chest and the wardrobe.

The young man's rough thumb gently traced the girl's lips, glistening with moisture. His deep, dark eyes held back a frenzy.

"That's right, Lin Chuo. I've been dreaming of you for a long time."

Manying's older brother had two best friends, one refined and gentle, the other rebellious and aloof.

When she was a teenager, she secretly fell for the gentle one. She carefully kept the secret in her heart for years.

Then one night, her brother's friends stayed over. Manying finally summoned the courage to knock on the door of the man she'd secretly loved.

But when she woke up the next morning, Manying discovered that the man who had treated her tenderly all night was the very demon king she'd spent all these years afraid to approach.

Jin Yue's childhood friend had a younger sister.

The girl was fair and delicate, soft as a little rabbit.

For some reason, though, whenever she saw him, she looked as frightened as a rabbit facing a wolf.

One day, Jin Yue felt like teasing her and blocked her in a corner with a cold expression.

"What are you afraid of? Do you think I'm going to eat you?"

The girl shuddered. "Eating people... is against the law."
