Fifteen-year age gap, older man: washed-up actor x laid-back graduate student
"I've liked you for longer than you can imagine."

Xie Xue has been Chen Yufeng's fan for ten years.
She watched him fall from being adored by millions to being forgotten by everyone, but she never left.
Their meeting was an accident.
At a dinner with friends, he went out for a smoke, and she stepped out to reply to a message.
She didn't ask for an autograph or a photo, only said casually, "It's too noisy in there."
He smiled without a word and put out his cigarette.
Later, he often came to her university to play basketball, and she helped him get through the gate.
A friend asked him what he was after. He said, "Just hoping I can see her more often."
The last show of his tour. The first snow of the season in Jingzhou.
Onstage, he asked, "Do you like snow?"
His gaze passed over the crowd and landed on her. "I like snow too."
She went backstage and asked the question she'd kept in her heart for a long time:
"Chen Yufeng, is it the snow in Jingzhou you like, or Xie Xue's snow?"
He looked at her and smiled.
"I've been pursuing you for so long, and you're only asking me now?"
He was gentle with everyone, but with Xie Xue, he played a little trick.
