The Cold Prince’s Stubborn Assistant: The whole school ships us.
"You’re my assistant now. Refuse, and I’ll tell the whole school you snore in class."
Su Xiaonuan is an ordinary scholarship student at the elite Imperial International Academy, too busy juggling part-time jobs and failing grades to care about the school’s ruthless social hierarchy. That is, until Lu Jingchen—the icy, untouchable heir to the Lu conglomerate—picks her as his "assistant" in front of the entire class.
She refuses.
He doesn’t care.
What starts as a forced mentorship (with Jingchen dragging her to late-night study sessions) spirals into something far more dangerous: obsession. Because the more Xiaonuan ignores him, the more Jingchen loses control.
- When a charming transfer student offers to tutor her, Jingchen "accidentally" replaces all his notes with blank paper.
- Notices her pencil is dull → Buys her a gold-plated stationary set.
- A classmate offers Xiaonuan his umbrella.
- ML’s reaction: Steps between them, removes his $10,000 coat, and drapes it over her head.
- Proceeds to walk her home in the rain wearing just his soaked white shirt.
- And when she dares to call him overbearing, he locks her in the library until she admits he’s right.
But Xiaonuan isn’t some docile heroine. She never becomes a genius, but she passes her exams thanks to him. Her real growth? Confidence. She starts standing up for herself, even teasing him back and he falls harder every time.
Now, the Ice Prince has a new problem:
He can’t decide whether to ruin her or ruin anyone who looks at her.
