Sweet sesame-filled bun X proud, aloof bad boy
After her grandfather passed away, Ruan Mian was taken in by the Ji family.
The Ji family was great in every way, except for their eldest son, Ji Ye. He skipped class, got into fights, and never studied, a nightmare who gave everyone a headache.
At the Ji family’s request, Ruan Mian, an excellent student, nodded in agreement.
From then on, there was only one thing on her to-do list: help Ji Ye study.

At school, Ji Ye pressed an extracurricular book against Ruan Mian’s chin. “Follow me around again and I’ll snap your neck.”
Ruan Mian wasn’t intimidated. “Fine. Then copy your homework first. You have to hand it in soon.”
Ji Ye felt like he couldn’t go on living this way. He complained to his friend, “I keep feeling like Ruan Mian looks at me as if I’m some big idiot who can’t lift a finger or tell one grain from another.”
His friend looked at him and nodded emphatically. “Bro, be confident. Drop the ‘I keep feeling like.’”
Ji Ye swore he’d drive the awful girl away. He raised his hand to knock, only to find Ruan Mian with red-rimmed eyes, as if she’d been crying.
“What... are you doing?” His voice came out stiff, but he’d already lost half his nerve.
Ruan Mian wiped the corner of her eye, her voice thick with tears. “Are you here to kick me out?”
Damn it!
Looking at those tearful eyes, he couldn’t bring himself to say anything harsh. Ji Ye wanted to bite his tongue off on the spot.
Later, everyone knew that the cool, cocky big bad wolf had been thoroughly tamed by little Ruan Mian, a tiny rabbit.
