Xie Chuyun's mother runs a popular little restaurant, and Xie Chuyun drops by now and then to help out.

The customers are all regulars, and everyone gets along well. The place is always lively and cozy.

One day, an unwelcome guest suddenly showed up. He was a boy with a scar on his forehead who looked so fierce that anyone would assume he was a delinquent looking for trouble.

The boy hesitated, then spoke in a harsh tone, though his words were anything but: "Ma'am, could I have something to eat? I can work here to pay you back."

Xie Chuyun came out carrying a dish just in time to see this. She froze, shocked. Wasn't this Ling Qiong, the school heartthrob famous for both his fighting skills and his looks?!

Why did he look so miserable?

Ling Qiong froze too when he saw Xie Chuyun. His youthful pride made him press his lips together, and he turned to leave.

But before he could get far, the girl's slender hand caught his arm. "I can cook. You can try my food."

Ling Qiong hesitated and looked back, his voice edged with sarcasm. "A bookworm can cook?"

When the food arrived, Ling Qiong polished off every last bite. He hadn't expected it to taste so good, and his words came back to bite him.

Afterward, he still had to work to pay off his debt, so he washed dishes.

Seeing the aloof school heartthrob in an apron, Xie Chuyun was struck by the contrast. She couldn't help sneaking a few more looks, earning a threatening glare from Ling Qiong.

"Bookworm," Ling Qiong called to her. "From now on, I'll look out for you at school."

Liao Mu returned from studying abroad and joined a research institute at the forefront of anthropology in China.

Although the institute received generous government funding, it also needed sponsorship from outside companies, since its equipment and reagents were so expensive.

As a rising star, Liao Mu hosted several wealthy businesspeople and explained the latest developments in the field, as well as what the institute could do.

One investor showed great interest in her team's project. He was young, successful, and handsome, and his name was Fan Linhua.

They said he was an illegitimate son of the Fan family, yet he'd used his own wits to become the head of the Fan corporation. He also kept an eye on the latest research developments.

During a moment alone together, Fan Linhua said something he seemed to have held back for a long time: "Big Sister, I've finally found you."

Liao Mu stared at him in confusion. She couldn't remember ever meeting someone like him.

After thinking carefully, she recalled that on a rainy night, she'd once found a young man who looked like a badly injured puppy. It was hard to connect that frail young man with the elegant, handsome man standing before her.

Liao Mu: "So it was you..."

For a while, everyone in town was talking about how Young Master Fan had fallen in love and was taking a beautiful woman with him to all sorts of events every day.

Some people guessed he was keeping a pretty canary.

But then someone saw Young Master Fan pinned down on a table and kissed by his "canary." Someone else saw the "canary" beat up the people who had come looking for trouble with him.

And that ruthless Young Master Fan was pretending to be weak. He said softly, "Big Sister, you're amazing."

A straightforward, cheerful heroine x a puppy-like hero who loves his Big Sister and pretends to be weak
