There are many kinds of love in this world: childhood sweethearts, love at first sight, affection that grows over time, bickering couples... Yet Lin Jingzhi has fallen into the one kind that never ends well: unrequited love.
Just when she thinks she'll join the ranks of the single and become an old maid, the object of her one-sided love for all these years unexpectedly... drops into one of her interviews.
It's bad enough that he looks better than he used to. He's also smarter. And if being smarter weren't enough, he can now earn a living and support a family. And if that weren't enough, the most important thing is... he's still single.
Lin Jingzhi shakes her head. When Heaven entrusts someone with a great responsibility, it must create the conditions for it. She'll give fate a helping hand, arrange a series of chance encounters, and finally pounce on him.
With each encounter, she gets closer. One of them grows less and less confident, while the other gets more and more enthusiastic.
Until one day, on a dark, windy night in the middle of nowhere, Jie Liuchuan takes Lin Jingzhi home. She lets him strip her completely before it finally occurs to her to ask, "Didn't you always say rabbits don't eat the grass by their own burrows?"
He grins smugly. "But I believe in getting the best view from a tower near the water."
Waaah, I've been eaten...
A line she'd written some time ago echoes in her mind:
"A flutter of the heart has always been something two people share. If it's only one person, it's just a heartbeat."
Thank goodness you came in time, and made the wait worthwhile.

Female lead's blurb:
Xi Baibei has always believed that teaching is the noblest profession under the sun.
But this scoundrel Jing He, who constantly threatens to determine her fate with her daily grades, is nothing but a wolf in sheep's clothing!
Xi Baibei: Aren't you a teacher?! Weren't teachers and students supposed to love one another?
Jing He: I think we should switch the order of those words. But if you'd like to start by going on a date, then fall in love, I can accept that too.
Xi Baibei: ...
