(Insecure, sensitive heroine x sharp-tongued but kind-hearted ray-of-sunshine hero)
Blurb:
"Zhou Zhiwei, do you know what the cotton tree's flowers symbolize?"
"What?"
"Passionate love, and the courage to never bow your head."

My life had only one grand summer. That person told me it could snow in Nancheng, too.

When Song Chang first met Zhou Zhiwei, he just thought she seemed easy to tease.
Quiet and shy, like a soft, squishy glutinous rice ball. No matter how much you squished her, she'd be back to normal the next day, as if nothing had happened.
Back then, his greatest pleasure was getting to class early every day and teasing Zhou Zhiwei, who sat in front of him, whenever he had a moment.
When a rabbit is pushed too far, it bites. When Zhou Zhiwei was pushed too far, she simply ignored him.
Fine, ignore me.
Song Chang thought indignantly. It's not like I'm the only one with a temper.
So he ignored Zhou Zhiwei, too.
Then he watched helplessly as Zhou Zhiwei deliberately changed seats to make him angry, deliberately made sure they weren't in the same class to make him angry, deliberately let rumors about her and Chen Ziyue from the second year of high school spread to make him angry, and even... deliberately started dating him.
It seemed she wasn't doing it on purpose. She really had feelings for him.
That was when Song Chang could no longer sit still.
Of course, it wasn't because he was upset that all his affection had been ignored. It was because she was a high school student. How could she date so young?
Puppy love was wrong.
Righteous Student Song rolled up his sleeves, ready to break up this ill-fated romance himself.
P.S.: A bickering couple; unrequited love in the middle, followed by a groveling arc.
Theme: Keep striving every day.
