A Rogue's Romance

Rich Heiress x Wild Mustang, Cool Guy and Sweet Girl

Deliberate Approach | Mutual Redemption

For nearly twenty years, Zhao Chuxiang had always been the good girl in her parents' eyes: obedient, gentle, and never causing trouble, like a mild-mannered little mushroom.

No one knew that she was wild by nature. Being good was just a mask.

That summer after the college entrance exams, her father decided to remarry. To make life difficult for her soon-to-be stepbrother, Zhao Chuxiang provoked Xu Zhisi, a rebellious skateboarder she never would have crossed paths with otherwise.

With audacious blue hair and a devil-may-care attitude, he was a prodigy who stood at the pinnacle of international skateboarding. Draped in the national flag, he was more unrestrained than the winds that had once raged across the land.

Their personalities seemed worlds apart. Zhao Chuxiang was used to pretending to be well-behaved, and thought she'd hidden it well. Yet he saw right through her with ease.

"Mushrooms, you know. The prettier they are, the more poisonous they are."

-

Xu Zhisi was rude and difficult to deal with.

On that point, Zhao Chuxiang wholeheartedly agreed.

Contrary to the glory surrounding him, he was a "delinquent punk" with scandals flying all over the internet.

Just like the online hate posts said, he was arrogant and selfish, a menace to everyone, constantly surrounded by girls, and had the worst reputation imaginable.

But the more time Zhao Chuxiang spent with him, the more she felt something was off...

The tattoos were fake.

The scandals were lies.

And he'd never even been in a relationship.

He was supposed to breeze through a crowd of flowers without a single leaf clinging to him, but he couldn't even handle a little flirting.

Just one kiss, and his ears turned bright red.

Reader's Guide:

1. Both leads are sexually inexperienced; happy ending; fluffy romance with no logic.

2. The skateboarding setting draws on relevant references, but most of it is the author's invention and differs greatly from reality.

Opposites in personality and build | Service-oriented male lead | Acts like he's third in line for the male lead's official-wife position

1.

Jin Lin is one of the most ordinary, honest girls in the world.

She followed the path her parents laid out for her, passed the civil service exam after graduation, and was about to marry Wei Wen, her childhood friend who knew her inside and out, and spend her life caring for her husband and raising children.

But then she ran into the most farcical thing in the world:

Her fiance ran away from their wedding.

And recommended a new husband for her.

On the phone, Wei Wen said earnestly, "We're just comrades, so how could we get married? Don't worry, I've found someone for you. He's 190 centimeters tall with broad shoulders, a pure-hearted sweetheart, and the perfect match for you."

To escape gossip and endless blind dates, Jin Lin married the man Wei Wen had recommended.

The man's name was Song Liyu. He was Wei Wen's college friend, stood 190 centimeters tall, and had chiseled features, perfect abs, and a V-line. She was very pleased with him, not only because he was handsome and had a clean romantic history, but also because he'd politely and considerately handed her his medical checkup results when they met.

The only downside was his extremely strong sex drive, which often left Jin Lin overwhelmed after they married.

He was always begging for kisses, holding his shirt between his teeth and asking her to feel his abs, and coaxing her with tender words. Yet he never wanted to stop, and afterward he'd ask in detail how she felt and whether she'd enjoyed herself.

Jin Lin thought nobody was perfect. Compared with bad behavior like cheating, his high sex drive was something she could put up with. But his possessiveness grew stronger along with it, and he seemed to want to keep her tied to his side.

"Baby, you've only said 'I love you' seven times today."

"Baby, you didn't kiss me before you left. Does that mean you don't want me anymore?"

2.

Song Liyu had been the center of attention since birth.

The club he belonged to was packed every year, and every elective he took was full. Though he was a star among his peers, he fell in love with his friend Wei Wen's girlfriend.

Jin Lin spoke softly and sweetly on video calls. When Song Liyu met her in person at a get-together, she was even sweeter and prettier than she had been on screen.

Watching Wei Wen interact with her, Song Liyu's thoughts grew darker and darker. But his feelings could never see the light of day. He had to go to great lengths and act with utmost care just to exchange a few words with her, then savor them for ages.

Until one day, Wei Wen exposed his despicable feelings.

After learning they'd broken up, Song Liyu spent the night in the cold wind, accepting the fact that he'd "come between someone else's relationship." Early the next morning, he stood in front of Jin Lin with a bouquet of flowers.

Since he'd stolen her away, he might as well steal her all the way.
