When Ruan Shu was with her boyfriend, she never imagined she would get involved with Jiang Qi.
He was a famous figure at Jing University, aloof and rebellious, adored by the girls.
Ruan Shu was an ordinary college student, and everyone envied her relationship with her boyfriend.
The first hint came at a gathering of boys. He was in a position of power, and beneath the dim lights, his gaze fell on her as if he had no interest in her.
She never imagined he would keep her on his mind for so long.
Inside a McLaren outside campus, Jiang Qi held her on his lap with one arm. His elbow rested lightly against her, his cool, pale fingers touching her as if she were prey.
The man's low, husky voice seemed to sear her ear: "Kiss me once, and I'll let you go."

Ruan Shu never imagined she would attract someone like him.
Obsessively attached, dangerously unstable, aloof and cocky, impossible to approach in public. But when he spoke to her, he was like a harmless snake, gentle and polite.
A chill ran down Ruan Shu's back.
"Can you stop pretending?"
"Pretending to do what?"
The man glanced back as if he didn't care all that much.
Ruan Shu didn't answer. Jiang Qi loosened his tie and handed it to her, then leaned down and bit her lip.
"Then never look at him again."
He held her chin and kissed her patiently.
"Kiss me back."
"And..."
"Give me your love."
