[Both leads are pure] + [Debate] + [Angst and sweetness] + [A love that leaves a lasting mark]
The rotten experiences of Qiu Yunse’s high school years
made her sensitive and suspicious, scheming and selfish.
When she entered university,
she and Pingzhi both fell for the best debater on campus, Cheng Yilin.
In the competition for his affection,
she was selfish and cold, willful and unreasonable.
Everyone looked at her with disdain.
Pingzhi, meanwhile, became the darling of all,
thanks to her innocent looks and kind nature.
Pursuing love,
Qiu Yunse was nervous and cautious, as if walking on thin ice.
Cheng Yilin was accomplished inside and out,
excelling in his studies
and shining on the debate stage.
He was every girl on campus’s dream guy,
and a role model all the boys admired and aspired to emulate.
She felt unworthy of him.
Sadly, his kindness was simply part of who he was,
while the “mirages” she had imagined time and again
were nothing but illusions.
But what no one knew was that
this extraordinary young man was devoted to Qiu Yunse, the “femme fatale.”
He even carefully planned every step,
only to move her heart,
only to make her realize she had lost her way.
Whenever she faced hardship, he unhesitatingly stepped in to help,
and gladly gave her the freedom to choose.
He understood that she loved and hated with equal intensity, and adored her proud, headstrong nature.
He had fallen completely under the spell of a girl
whom everyone else considered scheming and selfish.
“I’m just that kind of person! How many times do I have to say it?”
Qiu Yunse cried in frustration,
taking all the blame upon herself.
Her chest heaved, and her whole body trembled.
Cheng Yilin frowned.
After a few seconds of silence, he spoke slowly.
“Yunse, whether you’re a good girl or a bad girl, I’m willing to be your debate coach.”
