Fireworks in Broad Daylight

*Straightforward, stunning beauty x chaste, uptight old-school gentleman

*Radiant actress x aloof tycoon

In high school, Huo Jiayu was quiet and reserved, while Ling Yan was confident and bold.

They were like two parallel lines, never crossing.

One time, the boys in the dorm were talking about their ideal types. His roommate casually asked what kind of person he liked.

He answered, "Ling Yan."

When rumors about them spread, Huo Jiayu thought their paths had finally crossed.

Afraid she might be angry about the rumors, he went out of his way to find her and explain.

But he overheard her chatting with a friend about it.

"Huo Jiayu? Who's that?"

"That top student from Class One, the untouchable beauty!"

"Oh. I don't know him."

Then Huo Jiayu understood that Ling Yan was the wind, something he could never catch.

"But I don't want to be someone who chases the wind. I want to walk alongside it."

The superstar Ling Yan is bold by nature and loves her freedom. She has countless male friends, is constantly surrounded by rumors, and never dates anyone for more than a month. Whether people criticize her or envy her, she never changes her freewheeling ways.

Only Huo Jiayu knows that this person, who seems not to care about anything, can also cry like a child when no one's around.

And only he knows how disheveled she looks when she lets down her guard.

When Ling Yan won a major award, Huo Jiayu put on a magnificent fireworks display in public.

Beneath the colorful lights, he saw the nameless fireworks he had set off for her when they were young.

Only now she was by his side, and he was no longer a nobody in her life. At last, he could kiss her passionately in broad daylight, beneath the fireworks.

Bonus scene:

After Ling Yan and Huo Jiayu's relationship was revealed, reporters from everywhere rushed over to interview them.

The standards she had once described in a TV program became a hot topic, too.

Reporter: "Miss Ling, you once said you liked energetic people. Does Mr. Huo fit your type in private?"

Everyone knew how composed and proper Huo Jiayu was. He never smiled, and everything about him gave off the air of a chaste, old-school gentleman.

Thinking of the wild night before, Ling Yan smiled meaningfully. "He's pretty energetic."

Reporter: "...Heh, really? You'd never guess!"

The viewers watching the livestream instantly went wild.

Viewer A: "That expression, that smile. Something's going on! (doge)"

Viewer B: "I don't want to get it immediately..."

Viewer C: "Could you elaborate?"

Viewer D: "Wow, I was just walking along peacefully and suddenly got kicked..."

Viewer E: "I'm shipping them, I'm shipping them!"

*He has a one-sided crush that turns into mutual love
