[Heroine: Breathe. Hero: She loves me so much!]

As a well-behaved, rule-following top student, all of Wen Leyao's thrilling adolescent heartbeats came courtesy of Qi Song.

She climbed over the school wall to skip class, then wrapped her arms around his lean waist as they rode his motorcycle.

After the college entrance exams, Wen Leyao gathered her courage and confessed her feelings.

Unfortunately, a misunderstanding put an abrupt end to her young love before it had even begun.

*

When she met Qi Song again, they were forced to sit together.

Awkward silence filled the air.

Wen Leyao stepped out for some fresh air, but at the corner she spotted a familiar, tall, slender figure.

The man leisurely blocked her path, his tall frame half-hidden in the light and shadow. "Don't recognize me anymore?"

"No."

"Then let's get reacquainted."

"I'm Qi Song. I've had one girlfriend. She dumped me and ran off," he said, leaning closer. The smile at the corner of his lips was a little cold.

"...Her name was Wen Leyao."

*

After their reunion, Wen Leyao knew Qi Song hated her. She was so nervous she did her best to keep her distance from this temperamental prince, and tried not to hurt him again.

She thought she was doing well enough.

Until Qi Song pinned her down, his face cold, unable to resist pressing his lips against hers. He murmured, intoxicated and greedy for more:

"I know I'm the one you love."

"If it's inconvenient for you to break up with that man..."

"I can accept a secret relationship."

Wen Leyao: ...?

Bonus scene:

At a later class reunion, someone brought up Wen Leyao and Qi Song's unfinished college romance.

Some people sighed, some lamented, some sympathized, and some took pleasure in it.

They all believed Wen Leyao had been the one who got dumped.

Qi Song arrived last.

This favored son of heaven, adored by everyone, drew every eye.

The others egged him on to drink as they crowded around him.

"Brother Song just won a world-class championship. Shouldn't we celebrate?"

"Yeah! Have a drink! Have a drink!"

"We're trying for a baby, so I can't drink."

Qi Song replied at his leisure, raising an eyebrow before turning to Wen Leyao with a beaming, triumphant smile.

"I'm being good, right, honey?"

[Calm, Rational, Fairy-like Girl × Proud, Unruly Rich Young Master]

[Career-Focused Heroine × Love-Struck Hero] / Reunited After a Breakup / Hero Pursues Heroine

At eighteen, Xu Chi was a favored son of heaven, always surrounded by girls.

Adored by everyone, he had a pair of affectionate-looking eyes that remained cool and indifferent, no matter who his girlfriend was.

At eighteen, Yu Anruo was the most ordinary girl in her class.

She was obedient and well-behaved, focused entirely on her studies, and blushed even when she spoke to a boy.

Then someone saw Yu Anruo slap Xu Chi hard across the face, while the young master merely wiped his mouth and smiled. His large hand clasped the back of her neck as he sealed her lips with a kiss, lost in an intoxicating passion.

It turned out Yu Anruo was Xu Chi's darling.

But how could an ordinary girl hold on to a rich young master's heart?

Everyone wondered when he would dump her.

The day they broke up, a storm raged outside. When a friend asked Xu Chi if it was true, he flicked open his lighter and gave a careless, scornful laugh.

"Yeah. It's over."

The young master carried on enjoying himself, as though nothing had happened.

But even after his cigarette had burned away, he never took a single puff. He simply let the ashes fall.

Only his eyes turned red.

-

At twenty-six, Xu Chi was still full of youthful confidence.

He made waves in the business world, acting decisively, with friends in every circle. The only thing he kept away from was women.

Word got around that Yu Anruo, representing the client, had been turned away and treated coldly.

Some people mocked her in private, saying she was no longer the young master's darling.

At a class reunion, someone saw Xu Chi, slightly drunk, pin Yu Anruo against the wall.

His sharp jawline revealed the anger he was holding back.

Everyone thought a fierce argument was about to erupt, and nervously held their breath.

The two of them stared at each other as if locked in a battle of wills.

Neither said a word.

Until Xu Chi was the one to give in. The man who always did whatever he pleased bent down and buried his face in the hollow of her neck. His breath was warm, his voice humble.

"Darling, can I sleep in the bedroom tonight?"

"...I'll sleep on the floor if I have to."

#The proud Xu Chi insists on sharing a bed with his wife, even if he has to sleep on the floor#

#He has a bad temper, but he never loses it with her#

/When the story began, he was the first to fall in love.

/From then on, he never let her go.

* One-on-one romance, both leads' first sexual partners, happy ending.

* The heroine has another relationship after their breakup; the hero does not.
