(University campus, secret crush, mutual pining, he pursues her, both are each other’s first and only)
[A sweet, soft-spoken underclassman who flirts without realizing it vs. a cool and gentle senior]
Bai Che is a favored son of heaven, born into a top-tier family. He has observed proper etiquette since childhood and has never been close to another woman.
As a result, countless people have secretly loved him, but no one ever dared to truly win him over.
Some people even made a bet about it.
They said Bai Che was destined to be alone for the rest of his life.
Then one day, everyone had to eat their words.
The aloof top student, who supposedly had no interest in women, stood outside the women’s dormitory holding a bouquet of 999 roses. He turned to the sweet, soft-spoken girl beside him and made a romantic confession:
“Su Ning, will you be my girlfriend?”
People say a secret crush is like a wager played out in the dark.
Su Ning used to think so too. Having a secret crush was bitter and painful!
Until the day she arrived at university as a freshman, when the person she had always longed for appeared before her.
The timid Su Ning secretly rejoiced. “I’ll like him one last time. Just once more.”
… …
After they married, Bai Che took Su Ning to the Aegean Sea, the place she had always dreamed of visiting, and they watched the beautiful twilight scenery all night.
It turned out a secret crush was never a one-sided ordeal. It was this man right in front of her, cherishing her with such tender care.
