Just being able to go to the same school as him was enough to make her happy. The taste of unrequited love is being close to someone but not being able to have them, knowing all their likes and dislikes but not knowing if they like you back. To be able to go to the same school as him every time, to make others envious of childhood sweethearts going to the same school, she would stay up all night to get closer to the student who was last in his class, only to be mocked by his sickly and aloof nature. But she could only envy and congratulate him. When her roommate, the school beauty, asked her to pass on a love letter, she felt jealous because of the lack of recognition. He thought it was her confession, and she thought... She hid her unrequited love very well, believing that as long as she didn't confess, she could remain his best friend forever. But he rejected her, and her heart broke. Later, the school beauty confronted him, asking why he didn't love her. Only then did he realize that she wasn't the one who should have confessed, but she still did. The school beauty angrily accused him of being her childhood sweetheart. She pretended to have amnesia and confessed her true feelings. To comfort her, he agreed to be with her. Then, after being exposed, she heard the news of his engagement and marriage.

Even cutting grapes took her so long; she had to take time off work—who knew if she was out gallivanting? She couldn't sell herself for 600,000 a night. She said 5,000 a month was only enough to hire a monkey. She accidentally peeked at him showering, and he fired her in anger. She was furious and set her alarm for 3:30 AM to wake him, but inadvertently revealed her bittersweet, long-standing unrequited love. When she called back, he blocked her. They woke up with dark circles under their eyes, and she was still the one pretending to be his girlfriend. She ran away at the last minute, and he raised his offer to 5 million. The second female lead exposed their fake relationship, and his grandfather beat him. She finally confessed that she loved him terribly and begged his grandfather to stop hitting him. But why did he suddenly kneel down and propose?

    The day Shen Yu crushed Lin Wanwan's eraser, the whole class gasped. Everyone knew the academic genius never apologized, yet he pushed a new eraser towards her, and amidst their endless practice problems, a note appeared—"I'll pay for this." Later, she learned that he had already written her future into his cosmic formula. "Shen Yu is a difficult book to understand, but I became the last person to read him."
