[Urban] [Campus] [Secret Crush] [Reunion After Years Apart]
Campus first, then city life
A stubborn, guarded male lead with a secret crush × a sensitive, perceptive female lead
A campus crush and a reunion after years apart, with a slow-burn push and pull and a happy ending
In high school, the whole school kept its eyes on Han Yingqiu and Lin Yuyao.
One was composed and clear-headed, the other aloof and reserved. They took turns claiming first place in their grade.
In everyone's eyes, they were evenly matched rivals, each as strong as the other.
No one knew that one weekend afternoon, Han Yingqiu went with a friend to a newly opened hot pot restaurant. Lin Yuyao and his friends came in shortly afterward and sat at the next table.
There was only a partition between them, and she heard his friend clearly tease him with a laugh: "Stop hiding it. I've known for ages that you like Han Yingqiu."
Han Yingqiu's fingers curled slightly as she suppressed the turmoil in her heart.
She didn't call him out. She pretended she knew nothing and continued to treat him as usual.
For Lin Yuyao, he kept this secret buried in his heart for three whole years.
He quietly made plans to confess after the college entrance exams.
He thought this youthful crush would finally find its resolution, but disaster struck without warning.
A family upheaval forced Han Yingqiu to leave the country in a hurry, cutting off all contact.
Years passed. A class reunion brought them together again after so long apart.
The feelings they had never managed to put into words surged up once more.
The female lead's character is so new; this is the first time I've heard of prosopagnosia. I thought it was just a bad memory that made it hard to keep people around. I can't remember people.
