Sweet yet fierce heiress × humble, aloof admirer
Jiangcheng High had three legendary figures.
One was Ruan Niansu, who became the campus belle as soon as she enrolled, thanks to her beauty and family background.
Another was Pei Xuan, the gifted young man born to be betrothed to Miss Ruan.
The third was Xu Linyue, the aloof, indifferent top student who was always by the campus heartthrob Pei Xuan's side.
In high school, no one ever linked Ruan Niansu and Xu Linyue.
They were like two parallel lines that would never meet.
One was proud and pampered, the other aloof and otherworldly.
They hardly seemed like the sort to become close.
Their only connection, perhaps, was that one was Pei Xuan's best friend and the other his officially recognized fiancée.
Everyone guessed they were no more than casual acquaintances.
But one day, a rumor began circulating in secret.
Someone claimed to have seen them with their own eyes on graduation night.
In a narrow alley, beneath the dim glow of a streetlight,
their shadows stretched out behind them.
The lofty heiress had Xu Linyue, usually so pure and ascetic, pinned against the wall.
Her vivid red lips bit down on his Adam's apple.
Xu Linyue looked as if he were resisting while inviting her closer. Leaning against the wall, neck tilted back, he struggled to catch his breath. “We… can't do this. You're Pei's fiancée.”
“Stop pretending.” The heiress went straight for the heart of the matter. “I know… you like me.”
“Otherwise, why would you sneak a kiss while I was asleep?”
