    At first glance, you can tell that the male lead has a crush on the female lead. The initial descriptions show the female lead glancing at her grades, intentionally or unintentionally, towards the science section. The top student in that section is always Ke Jin. At first glance, I thought the female lead had a crush on the male lead. However, in later descriptions, it's completely different. Then, I gradually got led astray by the author because the male lead's crush on the female lead is just too obvious. Ke Jin is unrestrained; this isn't a prodigal son returning home story, but Ke Jin doesn't like boring girls without a flamboyant personality. He always thinks: "She's so well-behaved!" Ke Jin loves lemons, and he even has a tattoo with lemon-related codes on his body. It's not because of lemons themselves, but because her nickname is Ningning. Ke Jin's love is always presentable. Every plot point begins with Ke Jin's long-term planning. He didn't want to disturb her high school life, but he truly didn't want to see her like this anymore. This is more like a redemption story. Believe me, look at my 1000+ hours of reading time. I don't read many books because I want to find the ones I like and read them carefully. I delete books I don't like after reading the synopsis or the first chapter. I especially loved the part where they separated. Separation doesn't represent a permanent bad ending, but rather allows the other person to learn to love themselves better. Many unrequited love stories and prodigal son stories don't have well-written separation parts; it feels like the separation was written just for the sake of separation. But this book is truly different. Please go read it! I really don't want this book to be buried. Finally, some readers might think that a book with a low score is probably not very good. However, you can check how many reviews a book has. If several hundred reviews exceed 7 points, then the book is very good. Generally, a book's true score is only revealed after 2000 or more reviews. I absolutely love this author! I love this book so much!

    [Unrequited Love Comes True x Long-Planned Relationship] [Ambiguous Pull-Ups] At the university's orientation party, Shu Yao, drunk, boldly confessed her feelings to Lu Wenyu, the most outstanding senior in the law school. The unapproachable Lu Wenyu, the most talented student in the law school, was moved by her feelings. But when Shu Yao sobered up, she had no recollection of the whole thing. For four years of university, Lu Wenyu made things difficult for Shu Yao in various ways, almost to the point of being harsh. Shu Yao tried her best to please him, even introducing him to girlfriends. The usually calm and rational Lu Wenyu rarely lost control, gritting his teeth: "You two get out." Three years after graduation, Lu Wenyu was parachuted in as a partner at a law firm, becoming Shu Yao's direct superior. Shu Yao: "..." If I've committed a crime, please let the law punish me, instead of sending me these whistleblower posts to torment me again. Endless overtime, business trips, and relentless torture—Shu Yao dares not speak out in anger, only able to vent to her best friend: "My boss is taking revenge, exploiting me, bullying me, and giving me five yuan to listen to my revenge plan." The message meant for her best friend was accidentally sent to Lu Wenyu. Lu Wenyu: "I'll give you five thousand, tell me the details." Shu Yao (unaware of the mistake): "I plan to get him, then I'll be the master." On a night of torrential rain, Lu Wenyu rushed over, panting, his eyes burning: "It's in black and white, you can't deny it." Lu Wenyu's classic quote: "Shu Yao, if narcissism is a crime, then you're already sentenced to life imprisonment." "My consultation fee is five thousand per hour, may I ask how much, Attorney Shu?"
