How mortifying can things get? Chen Yu can tell you from personal experience: mortifying enough to make you want to pack your schoolbag and transfer schools in the middle of the night.
He was hurrying to school on the first day and ran straight into a pretty, cool-looking "senior girl" with short hair. He fell for her on the spot, slapped his buddy on the shoulder, and declared that he was going to pursue her.
At the opening ceremony, he watched her give a speech onstage, dropped the lollipop from his mouth right onto the ground, then rushed backstage to ask for her contact information.
But the other person stood at the stairwell and coolly threw out three lines:
"First, I'm a guy."
"Second, phones are forbidden at school."
"Third, move."
Who could have guessed this guy wouldn't play by the rules? He stuck out his chin and shouted, "So what if you're a guy? I'll pursue you anyway!"
After that, the whole grade got ready to watch the drama unfold.
The junior student kept showing up at the school building entrance every day, with breakfast and a handwritten love letter, rain or shine.
The famous ice-cold top student had only two words for him every time: "So childish."
