A falsely proper, secretly devious genius x a girl who pretends to be bold but is actually a scaredy-cat
Wen Qiyu has just eight words to sum up Ming Yu: unattainable, and putting on airs.
She only spilled half a cup of iced Americano on him. Was that really enough to make him look at her like she was trash?
To vent her frustration, she makes a flurry of outrageous posts on the anonymous campus wall.
"I want to see that aloof flower begging me with red-rimmed eyes."
She thinks she's hidden her identity perfectly.
She has no idea that the computer science department's legendary hacker needs only two minutes to find someone's IP address.
From then on:
She says she wants to touch his hand, and he takes hers around a pen during lab.
She says she wants to see him in a shirt with three buttons undone, and the next day he sits across from her with his shirt half open.
Wen Qiyu thinks it's all a coincidence, until her chat history is accidentally projected onto the big screen at the graduation ceremony:
[If he dares make the first move, I'll show him tonight what it means to play with fire!]
In full view of the crowd, Ming Yu walks slowly onto the stage and leans toward her microphone. His husky voice carries through the hall:
"No need to wait until tonight. The fire's already started."
"Classmate Wen, when are you going to put it out?"
Theme: Love is a carefully planned seduction, and a willing surrender.
