Embrace Romance

Lin Tongyu never dreamed that one day she would actually date Xie Zhiyan, the top student in the finance department and the famously unattainable campus heartthrob.

Only after they started dating did she discover that Xie Zhiyan was simply, completely, utterly clueless about romance!

For her birthday, he gave her an advanced calculus textbook. On Valentine's Day, he drew her a heart-shaped function. For their anniversary, he gave her a desk lamp!

All in the name of helping her study hard and reach the pinnacle of life through academic success!

Lin Tongyu was so frustrated that she poured out her feelings in a late-night forum post: [My boyfriend has no idea what I mean when I drop hints. Talking to him is more exhausting than talking to my dog. He doesn't even react when he sees me. Does he actually like me?]

The forum's top-voted reply: [Break up. He just wants your body.]

Miss Lin stayed silent for a long time, then decided to trust the internet at large. That very day, she messaged Xie Zhiyan.

“Let's break up. My family has a million-dollar inheritance for me to claim. Now that I'll have money, I don't need love anymore.”

The next morning, as she was heading out to class, someone pulled her into their arms the moment she stepped outside.

The man hadn't slept all night. His eyes were bloodshot, his face buried in the crook of her neck. His usually languid voice had turned hoarse. “Tongtong, I don't want to break up.”

“I own several buildings and have tens of millions in assets. You can have it all. Please don't leave me.”

A genuinely tsundere, untouchable heartthrob x a seemingly composed beauty

Later, Lin Tongyu finally realized:

[The answers on page 52 of the calculus book were the door code to the luxury home he'd bought her. The center coordinates of the heart-shaped function were the address. The keys to the luxury car he'd gotten her were hidden in the desk lamp.]

She was the one who didn't understand romance!
