[A battle of mutual one-upmanship | Push and pull to the limit]
Naturally flirtatious, outgoing beauty × abstinent, compulsive professor
After Su Huai's childhood sweetheart, whom she'd dated for four years, cheated on her, she threw herself into her career to mend her broken heart.
The day after the breakup, her boss assigned her to a bizarre client. To finish the project as quickly as possible, she had to rush to campus every day to revise the designs!
Fine! I'll put up with it for my career!
The second day after the breakup, she discovered that this client was actually Pei Yanzhou, the youngest math professor at A University. He had a serious case of OCD and happened to teach the class her cheating ex was in!
A chatterbox by nature, she had no choice but to make small talk with the client every day, while getting the latest on her ex's miserable life after the breakup.
That was how she got through the endless days and nights under the control of the compulsive professor!
Half a year after the breakup, the project was finished.
Remembering the better part of a year spent under the client's thumb, she rose up in indignation and blocked him on the spot.
She thought: Yes! Finally, I don't have to be tormented anymore!
That very night, her friend told her that the professor she'd been so mad at had apparently been dumped!
Excited, she opened the forum to get the latest gossip firsthand.
As soon as she opened it, she saw:
#Shock! Pei Yanzhou, A University's youngest professor, proposes in the rain and gets rejected!#
#Who doesn't know a good thing when they have it!#
#Rainy night · diamond ring · apartment complex.jpg#
Su Huai thought the building in the photo looked oddly familiar.
Just then, her phone buzzed.
Rain pattered on the other end of the call, and a low, husky voice came through the phone.
-Huaihuai, let me explain.
Su Huai: ...
#Help, all I wanted was to focus on my career, and I ended up with a professor?!#
#What do I do now that I'm my ex's teacher's wife after the breakup?#

-Before I met you, mathematics was my only light.
-After I met you, you became the only solution to my equation.
Tips:
1. Both leads are each other's first, but the female lead has an ex-boyfriend.
2. Six-year age gap / sweet throughout, no angst / includes a wild face-slapping scene involving the ex-boyfriend.
3. Sweet and satisfying style / push and pull at first / healing and personal growth later on.
