    My absolute favorite campus romance novel! Completely unconventional, with no melodramatic plot twists! So healing and peaceful 😻 A chemistry genius from an ordinary background x a musician from a family of lawyers – it's incredibly addictive! Both are independent and strong! ✌️🍬 The male lead is rich and handsome, a bit arrogant, sarcastic, and unreliable, always cracking jokes. Sometimes he's a comedian, but he's a well-behaved and obedient student. He's empathetic, understanding the aloofness and perfectionist pride beneath the enthusiastic female lead's smile, and will always love her deeply and unconditionally. ✌️❤️ The female lead also secretly loves the male lead, and has her own academic and career achievements (direct admission to university) and perseverance. She never gives up; she gets back up after every tear. During the drama club auditions, she was chosen for the lead role, but because her father favored his illegitimate daughter, he paid money to snatch the role from the female lead and give it to her. The female lead was devastated, but she quickly recovered, showing incredible resilience. After understanding the situation, the male lead helped her get revenge in his own way. Later, he used his legal expertise to help the female lead's mother with her divorce case, earning a large sum of legal fees. 💰 The villains and antagonists all got their just desserts, which was very satisfying and not at all angsty! 🔥 In the end, the male and female leads overcame their class differences and finally fell in love. 🥰 It's very intelligent and includes professional legal knowledge; it's not just sweet for the sake of sweetness.
