[Cool, confident homeroom teacher × gentle stage actor | He has a crush on her]
When Yi Lan first met Lu Yuqian, he was an unknown stage actor who even had to take on student theater productions to make ends meet.
Yet in just one year, he shot to fame as a rising Best Actor thanks to an art-house film.
Yi Lan thought she would never cross paths with this celebrity again, but a campus variety show called The God of Drama brought them together once more.
On the day they chose their theater partners, Lu Yuqian reached out to Yi Lan without hesitation and said with a smile, "My leading lady is Teacher Yi."
Yi Lan froze for a moment, then gently took his hand, feeling the strength in his fingers and the warmth of his palm.
Under the spotlights, he wore an elegant uniform and gazed at her tenderly, delivering those heart-fluttering lines in the gentlest, most affectionate voice.
Yi Lan felt her face growing warm too, unable to tell whether it was the scene or reality.
At last, the show came to an end. The dressing room was left in complete disarray, and the two of them sat facing each other in silence.
Lu Yuqian walked over slowly and quietly, then leaned both hands on the table, trapping her there. He still wore his stage makeup, and the sweep of his eyeliner made him even more alluring. "Teacher Yi, would you like to have a campus romance with me?"
Yi Lan eventually pushed him away gently. "Calm down. We can't be together."
But a few months later, when she saw online that Lu Yuqian had been injured, she suddenly felt a stab in her heart. As soon as work ended, she rushed over by plane as if possessed.
In the vast hotel room, Lu Yuqian held her tightly. He pressed a scorching kiss to her neck and whispered, "You finally decided to give in."
Both leads are each other's first love, and neither they nor their exes were ever in an official relationship.
Chapters 1–10 are partly flashbacks. The story in the blurb starts in Chapter 11. If you don't want to read the flashbacks, you can skip straight to Chapter 11 without affecting your understanding.
There are no real-life inspirations. Anyone who sees themselves in the characters is delusional.
