Update: I don’t even want to continue Vol. 2 and 3. And FYI, Vol. 4 is all extra chapters, so the main story ends with Vol. 3. I peeked at the manhua and spoiled the rest for myself YQ becomes an idol, while CFC becomes a businessman. And of course, CFC isn’t YQ’s brother; it was all just a misunderstanding. They separate, YQ regrets his actions, and naturally, they get their happy ending.
I’m done torturing myself life’s too short and my TBR is too long. I’m dropping this series; just having it on my shelf feels like an eyesore.
As always, don’t let my “opinion” shape yours this is just how I feel.

One thing about me is that I love a good first love book it often means school days, awkwardness, and innocence. This entire book is set during the main characters' school years. YQ approaches CFC to make him fall in love, intending to dump him later as a form of "revenge." But it’s way more innocent than it sounds because, again, he’s a proud, naive 17 year old teenager.
What bothers me the MOST is the fact that YQ thinks CFC is his stepbrother (he believes CFC is his dad’s son from a mistress), and he still proceeds to fall in love with him during the whole plan to make CFC fall for him. I don’t know yet if they are actually brothers and I don’t think they are but YQ thinks they are!!!
I’m frustrated about some other things, but the story isn’t over yet. So far, everything I’ve read is from 17 year old YQ and CFC’s perspective, so I can’t judge them by adult standards. It's a solid 4 star read for me and that’s being generous, because again, the story isn’t over yet.
