This will be revised, and I'll fill in the gaps...
Second male lead takes the lead / secret love comes true /
Flirts without realizing it vs. proud and refined, but stubborn
1.
At the freshman arts showcase, Ji Xun unexpectedly became the person mentioned most often on the campus confession wall as a secret crush. Her friend tested the waters: "I heard an upperclassman confessed to you with a drone. Don't tell me you were moved?"
Ji Xun sighed. "I have a boyfriend."
Yet the very next second, on the bustling athletic field, the attentive boyfriend she'd just mentioned walked right past her without even looking her way, holding another girl in his arms.
2.
Yu Yanxi, a well-known figure at Jiang University, had been proud and privileged since childhood. On the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, he inherited enough family wealth to last several lifetimes. Girls flocked to him, but no one had ever seen him fall for anyone.
At a gathering, when someone said Ji Xun was Jiang University's campus belle, the aloof young man glanced up and casually looked her over. "She's all right, I guess."
Later, the two toured Zhoushan together.
The next day, a trending post appeared, claiming the internet-famous Jiang University campus belle had apparently been entangled with her ex-boyfriend.
Yu Yanxi stared silently at the profile in the photo, realizing at last that it was his own. He grabbed Ji Xun, who was drowning her sorrows at a bar, and held her fast, his presence blazing like a cluster of flames.
"Miss Ji, did you enjoy having me as your stand-in?"
3.
Ji Xun had never imagined she would become involved with Yu Yanxi.
They were worlds apart, impossible to compare. He was like the bright sun in the sky, while she was just one face in the crowd.
One day, someone looking for trouble dug up dirt on her, claiming the pure and innocent campus belle Ji Xun was the year's most calculating little white flower. She'd broken up with her ex less than a month ago, then turned around and seduced the Yu heir, worth hundreds of millions.
Her ex took the opportunity to post a heartfelt confession on the campus wall: "Xunxun, no matter what happens, I'll always wait for you."
That night, a pinned post highlighted in red appeared on the campus confession wall.
The young master of the Yu family, mentioned countless times on the confession wall, posted a confession for the first time.
[I don't mean to intrude. I've had a crush on her for years.]
The moon will eventually find the astronaut who belongs to her.

P.S. The stand-in mentioned in the blurb is a misunderstanding.
Theme: Love what I love, and hold fast to what I believe in
Why don't I understand what the male protagonist is doing?
Oh my god, it reminded me of the time I met a handsome guy and couldn't help but stare at him. Before I knew what I was doing with my eyes, my ears had already listened to what he was chatting with others... When I reacted, I quickly opened my eyes, but my ears couldn't help it. ⊙⊙My whole body was like a demon. People also noticed that I was eavesdropping. It's embarrassing to think about it now (っ╥╯╰╥c)
My wife has actually published a new article, congratulations!
