A seemingly aloof top student with obsessive tendencies X a scheming bastard of a school tough guy who's a hopeless romantic
Ji Chengnan was a "good kid," at least as far as everyone else knew. What they didn't know was that he'd been sick since childhood: depression, obsessive tendencies... His life had been a mess for a long time.
The "good kid" ended up at the worst high school in the city, where he met a dim-witted transfer student. The idiot, Luo Mingxuan, became Ji Chengnan's deskmate, stole his spot at the bottom of the class, and was always smiling at him.
Ji Chengnan thought he was just a dumbass with bad grades, until he discovered...
Whatever rank Ji Chengnan got, the idiot got the same rank...
Whichever exam room Ji Chengnan sat in, the idiot sat in the same one...
The idiot remembered Ji Chengnan's old habits better than he did...
Ji Chengnan didn't like the hustle and bustle of the world, but from the very beginning he still let Luo Mingxuan approach him with less than innocent intentions... He crossed the line...
The idiot said he had a crush on someone he'd liked for a long time...
Ji Chengnan nodded, but for no reason, he felt irritated.
Until Ji Chengnan came across the idiot's sketchbook:
The first half was all him. The second half was still all him...
Quiet, frowning, dozing with his head on the desk...
It was a long gaze that Ji Chengnan had never seen before, one that belonged to Luo Mingxuan.
A long-planned secret crush, your shadow searches for you throughout the world.
