[Sweet from beginning to end + mutual pining with double standards + from school uniforms to wedding dresses]
Socially anxious, sweet-natured artist Ruan Ruan bumps into aloof campus heartthrob Jiang Yubai on her first day of school. From then on, he quietly singles her out for special treatment, and she falls for him little by little.
He sticks close to her in every lecture, carries her in his arms to the infirmary when she suffers heatstroke during military training, and anonymously steps in to defend her when a teacher gives her a hard time.
The whole school goes wild shipping them: the aloof heartthrob who’s been frozen solid for years makes an exception only for his sweet junior!
Then Ruan Ruan spots the floppy-eared rabbit charm on his backpack. It’s from an exclusive design she drew in high school, of which only a few dozen copies were ever made!
Only then does she realize that every chance encounter was planned, and every tender gesture concealed a crush he’d kept secret for four years.
From youthful butterflies to a love that goes both ways, from their school days to their wedding day,
the aloof heartthrob saves all his tenderness for one person. “Ruan Ruan, I’ve liked you since high school.”
A devoted one-on-one romance, no cheating, no angst, and a supporting cast that makes it so sweet it’ll give you a toothache. Let it heal your whole youth!
