A sweet, gentle girl versus a rebellious, world-weary boy.
On her first day after transferring schools, Ji Zhixia offended the person everyone at school was most afraid to provoke.
Everyone said she was done for.
While the others were wondering what kind of revenge Xu Qingye would take, Ji Zhixia was sitting in the boy's lap, blushing as she pushed him and said, "Stop kissing me."
Later, Ji Zhixia moved into Uncle Xu's house. As soon as she entered, she ran into the delinquent Uncle Xu had told her about: Xu Qingye.
The boy had striking blue hair and a diamond stud on his ear. He looked at her with an amused expression.
-- At the turn of the stairs
He forcefully pinned her against him. "Kiss me."
Ji Zhixia trembled all over, lowering her head and repeating "I'm sorry" through her tears.
He shoved her away violently and told her to get lost, saying he never wanted to see her again.

Later, Ji Zhixia really did stop appearing in front of Xu Qingye.
That is, until shortly before her internship. Her school adviser led a group to a business banquet, where Ji Zhixia never expected to see Xu Qingye again.
By then, Xu Qingye was a rising star in the business world, while she was just a lowly intern.
They were worlds apart, but a contract brought them together again.
That year, Xu Qingye had lost his boyish innocence but was still a jerk. Without a word, he dragged her into his office, locked the door, and pinned her against the desk.
"Don't recognize me?"
"What?"
"You sleep with me and then pretend you don't know me?"
-
"You are the one I've longed for all my life."
