Synopsis

Two male leads + secret crush + reunion after years apart + one-on-one romance

When Chen Qize parachutes in as the new grade director for the second year at Binhai No. 1 High School, Liang Cheng is nothing but disdainful and resentful.

Why is it that they're both 28, yet he's a grade director while Liang Cheng is stuck as an underpaid, overworked physics department head?

Oh, so he's got connections.

Nothing makes Liang Cheng hate someone more than connections.

So when Chen Qize greets him, Liang Cheng responds coldly or pretends not to see him.

When he learns Chen Qize's desk is right beside his, Liang Cheng frowns again and again.

Wait, what's going on? Why does the other guy seem to be getting more and more forward?

Shouldn't he have noticed Liang Cheng's hostility and stayed as far away as possible?

When Chen Qize sees Liang Cheng again in the lecture hall, Liang Cheng's eyes hold nothing but the courtesy and politeness he shows a colleague. Chen Qize knows Liang Cheng has forgotten him.

Still, he thinks, if he's forgotten, then so be it. There's plenty of time. He can work to get them reacquainted.

"There's someone I like." Chen Qize has said this to many people, but the person he likes doesn't know.

"Does he know?" a girl asks.

"No."

"You should tell him."

"Yeah."

When he was young, Chen Qize had a simple wish: "I want him to like me." So he took the initiative to get close to Liang Cheng, and they became friends.

Now that he's older, his wish is no longer so simple. Chen Qize steps back into Liang Cheng's life, no longer content to be his friend. He wants Liang Cheng to fall in love with him.

How Long Does It Take for a New Writer to Make It? I’ve Been Writing for 54 Days

54 days. I finished my first book on day 45: 320,000 words, writing for 8–12 hours a day. I’m now planning my second book, but nobody’s reading the first one anymore. Is it really that bad? Am I just someone with no talent? (sobbing)
