Help! I Ran Into an Old Acquaintance on a Blind Date

History teacher & math teacher + former student & former trainee teacher

Wen Qingyu taught history at an ordinary high school in the city. Before she had even turned twenty-seven, her mother started pushing her to go on blind dates. After plenty of threats and persuasion, Wen Qingyu finally agreed.

Still groggy, she went to the teahouse they had arranged to meet at. When she saw her date, she nearly fainted on the spot. Help! Can someone tell her why her blind date had to be him?

A little scene:

“Teacher’s wife! Teacher’s wife!”

As everyone teased her, Wen Qingyu blushed and looked over at her former homeroom teacher, who kept glancing her way. She hurriedly waved her hands. “No, don’t start making things up!”

Shi Zhao took her hand. The teasing grew even louder. He gestured for everyone to quiet down, then picked up his glass and led her over to another table.

Reader’s guide:

1. Both leads have had romantic relationships before.

2. The female lead has no romantic involvement while she is a student.

3. Their relationship begins only after both are single and the female lead has graduated and reached adulthood.

4. This is not a teacher-student romance! This is not a teacher-student romance! This is not a teacher-student romance!

The romance takes a while to warm up, then unfolds at a gentle, steady pace.
