It Began with Falling in Love on a Snowy Day [Younger Man's Secret Crush]

Revised and rewritten, August 9, 2026. #High School Math Teacher Finds a Genius Homeless Boy# For a homeless person, snowy days are the hardest of the year. But that snowy night, the boy stood beneath a streetlamp, tears caught on his lashes, and said softly, “I didn't used to like snowy days. Now it's different.” She reached up to straighten his scarf and said, “Starting today, you'll like every day of every season.” She didn't know that her words fell into the boy's heart like a snowflake into warm water, melting without a sound, never to be retrieved. After that, every snowy day, he stood by her side. When she shielded him from the wind, he secretly watched the tips of her hair dampened by snow. When she walked ahead, he lowered his head and stepped in the footprints she'd left. When she handed him a cup of hot water, his fingers brushed hers. She didn't notice that moment, but he remembered it all winter. From the moment he fell in love with snowy days, he knew how he felt. Before he came to love every day of every season, he fell in love with her. Su Anqing's condition for taking him in was that he make something of himself. So the boy gave it everything he had, just to stay by her side. By the time she realized how long he had been watching her, it was already too late. “You don't have to repay me. You just have to grow up well.” But in his heart, he wondered: When I grow up, can I stay by your side? [Reading Guide] 1.
