[Ruthlessly domineering university professor who crushes every flower + goofy, mischievous “bad” student Huang Yimei + sweet romance + comedy + mutual devotion + schemes]
Du Minjun is hailed as the future leader of China’s artificial intelligence industry. Guohua University went to great lengths to poach him from a world-class university overseas and bring him home as a professor. His lectures are always packed, and the first ten rows are forever occupied by female students. Some even get into fights over the front-row seats. Rumor has it that he avoids women, lacks human feeling, and is utterly impartial.
“Bad” student Huang Yimei somehow scored just high enough to get into Guohua University, then by another twist of fate became Du Minjun’s “last disciple.” After he rejected her graduation thesis for the nineteenth time, she prayed at a temple: “Please, Heaven, send a deity down to take this menace away and restore peace to the people!”
Her best friend offered some advice from the sidelines: “Girl, why not offer yourself to him? Maybe he’ll be tempted by your looks and let you off the hook?”
Huang Yimei glared furiously. “Don’t you know that none of the people who threw themselves at him came to a good end? I want to live a few more years and take care of my parents in their old age!”
Three months later, Professor Du cornered Huang Yimei in a secluded spot beside the teaching building, his eyes blazing. “What? You set my heart on fire and now you want to run? Didn’t your mother teach you to take responsibility?”
Huang Yimei lowered her eyes. “Don’t take it seriously. I was only teasing you.”
But Du Minjun’s face darkened, and he replied, each word deliberate: “It’s not that easy. It’s already too late.”
