Cheng Ning had a rival she'd grown up with, Shen Qinian. He was great in every way, except for his sharp tongue and the constant parade of women around him.

Ever since they were kids, the thing Cheng Ning hated most was people teasing them about each other.

But she didn't care one bit.

After all, she already had a boyfriend!

Her online boyfriend was 188 cm tall, with long legs and a voice fit for a professional voice actor. They even saw eye to eye on everything.

What she loved most was the way he fell silent on the other end of the phone when she teased him.

So Cheng Ning counted down every day, wishing on every star and waiting for the day she could finally meet her beloved boyfriend in person.

[100 days until I meet Shen Yan. I want to kiss his lips.]

[99 days until I meet Shen Yan. I want to press my lips to his Adam's apple.]

[99 days until I meet Shen Yan. I want to play with his hands.]

[Just 1 day until I meet Shen Yan. I want to die on top of him.]

On the day they were finally supposed to meet, Cheng Ning put on a pretty little dress and carefully did her makeup, ready to surprise Shen Yan. But at the table they'd agreed to meet at, she ran into Shen Qinian, the rival she hadn't seen in years!

Her rival had hands exactly like her online boyfriend's, the same build, and even an identical Adam's apple. Once she learned who her online boyfriend really was, Cheng Ning grabbed her skirt and ran.

After finding out she'd been deceived, Cheng Ning did everything she could to avoid him. But no matter how deliberately she stayed away, she kept running into Shen Qinian everywhere: at home, on campus, at parties, and even... at a hotel?

When Cheng Ning was held in his arms, she wore the look of someone who'd given up on life.

"Baby, didn't you say you wanted to die on top of me?"
