[Name Wrong Marked Protagonist Lin Zhiyao x Chen Yu] For three years in high school, Lin Zhiyao always had a name called Chen Yu in his sight.
He is the cool academic god who is number one in his grade. He sits in the last row by the window, and the sunlight falling on him looks particularly restrained. She was the second in grade who was always chasing behind him, and she was the only "special case" who could clearly see the pause on his pen tip and the slight frown on his brows.
Everyone said that Chen Yu was cold-tempered and heartless.
Only Lin Zhiyao knew that he was actually afraid of the dark and would turn on all the lights on thunderstorm nights; that he was picky about food, but would secretly put the green peppers in his lunch box into her bowl; and that the shallow scar on his left wrist was left to help her block the flying basketball.
She thought she hid her love well, hiding her love under the test papers and rankings. She only dared to secretly look at his sweaty back when he was playing when no one was around.
It wasn't until the day of the graduation ceremony that she drank some fruit wine and plucked up the courage to stuff the secret diary she had written for three years into the middle of his schoolbag, turned around and ran away.
Later, they went to the same university, in different cities, and in different circles of friends.
Lin Zhiyao thought the story was over.
Until late one night, she bumped into him drunk downstairs in the dormitory. Chen Yu, who was always well-dressed and rational, pushed her against the corner with red eyes, holding the already yellowed diary in his hand, and asked her in a hoarse voice:
"Lin Zhiyao, do you know how much effort I put into pretending that you don't like me?"
"Now, can I also like you instead?"
