Xia Yuan has a secret: she’s fallen for her best friend’s older brother.
Lu Chiye is striking and confident, the darling of the school and the center of everyone’s attention. He’s never short of admirers, dates one girlfriend after another, and is always surrounded by rumors.
Xia Yuan can only stay quietly in the background, the most inconspicuous bystander of all, hiding her feelings deep in her heart and never daring to let anyone find out.
After an argument one day, she finally couldn’t hold back. She hid in a corner of the stairwell, eyes red, tears streaming down her face.
Lu Chiye found her. Seeing her tear-reddened eyes, he softened his tone for once, bent down slightly, and gently coaxed her:
“Come on, don’t cry.”
Xia Yuan froze.
