[Sweet Campus Romance × Two Academic Stars × Childhood Friends × Secret Crush Becomes Mutual Love × One-on-One, Both Pure × All Sweetness, No Angst]
The aloof academic star had a crush on me for ten years, and let it slip on the very first day we met again.
Lin Lu is a new math major, the top scorer on the college entrance exam, soft and adorable, but a little socially anxious.
On her first day of school, she got stuck wrestling with a suitcase at the campus gate.
Gu Huaizhi, a sophomore computer science major and a two-time national scholarship winner, was famous for his cool, ascetic air and keeping everyone at arm’s length.
He walked over, lifted her twenty-eight-inch suitcase with one hand, and said coolly,
“Gu Huaizhi, your orientation volunteer.”
Only later did Lin Lu find out that
he’d waited forty minutes for her beneath the plane tree by the campus gate that day.
Her number had been saved in his phone for four years.
The scar over his right eyebrow was from when he fell while protecting her when they were six.
For ten years, he’d collected acorns until he’d filled an entire jar.
She’d kept her milk candies for ten years, wrapped in yellowing paper.
He searched for her for ten years. She forgot him for ten years.
On the first day they met again, during the freshman welcome meeting, he messaged her across two rows of seats:
“Did you throw away that acorn?”
“I’ve been thinking about it for ten years.”
From deliberately engineering chance encounters to openly giving her preferential treatment, from aloof upperclassman to jealous, clingy boyfriend,
he spent ten years finding her, then spent a lifetime spoiling her.
Everyday campus life for two top students, sweet and swoon-worthy from start to finish.
A little face-slapping, a little jealousy, and the occasional collapse of his cool persona.
Two academic stars go from campus to the wedding aisle. The sweetness is off the charts, so dive right in!
