Salt-of-the-earth straight girl x irritable, possessive, sickly-sweet king of jealousy
[Just one sigh from you is enough to shake my heart.]

Everyone thought the two had really ended things this time. But only a few days after he made that declaration, Bai Chongze went right back to begging her to reconcile.
After yet another breakup, everyone watched Bai Chongze wandering around like a lost soul. "You and Song Yunshu just aren't right for each other. She doesn't love you. What's the point of doing all this for someone who doesn't love you?"
As if they'd hit a nerve, Bai Chongze shot back, emotionally, "It's not that she doesn't love me. She loves me a lot. She's just not good at relationships. I can teach her, little by little."
Everyone: ...
