[A goofy girl who wants to flee Earth after dying of embarrassment x a cool yet gentle male college student]
Q: Can a funny girl find love too?
A: Yes.
Cen Yuan found a student ID in the library. The photo showed a handsome guy with sharp features, and his name sounded just as good as he looked. She naturally fell head over heels.
After finally adding him on WeChat through the campus confession wall, Cen Yuan was about to message her crush when he texted first:
Jiang Shilin: Is that you in your profile picture?
Cen Yuan: Do you want to know what I look like? Wait. (Changing her profile picture)
Jiang Shilin: ...
Cen Yuan (making a silly face): That's really me. Don't like it?
Jiang Shilin fell silent on the other end. How was he supposed to explain that he was just trying to find her and return her student ID?

Later, Cen Yuan followed him around in an ambiguous sort of way for a month, thinking sweet romance had finally come her way. Then she saw Jiang Shilin carrying books for a junior girl, leaving the cafe as they chatted and laughed.
Furious, she posted to her Moments: "Let's just say all my heartfelt affection was misplaced. I'm closing up shop. Even if love comes knocking, it won't help. My heart is sealed off forever. (Dark version)"
Three minutes later, she received a text: "I'm 187 cm, I have abs. Can I come in now?"
Cen Yuan hadn't expected anyone to be even more ridiculous than she was, so she ignored it.
-
That night, the whole campus lost power. She was hauling water from the supermarket back to her dorm when someone cornered her between the shelves.
The flashlight went out, and the moonlight revealed a dim figure.
Jiang Shilin fixed his gaze on her and said, his meaning unclear: "You fish for three days and dry your nets for two. You're definitely very devoted."
Cen Yuan looked away.
The man sighed softly. His deep voice fell against her ear, helpless yet indulgent: "So why did you stop now?"
