Zhou Zeye had always been wild and unruly, and no one could keep him in line, until his best friend dragged him off to get his driver's license.
From backing into a parking space to stopping at a designated point, Zhou Zeye was chewed out by his female instructor until he was thoroughly humiliated.
Under the blazing sun, the fire in his heart burned hotter and hotter. He was just about to slam the car door when the female instructor, who had been sniping at him moments ago, answered a phone call in a gentle voice. "Don't be upset, sweetheart. It's all your grandpa's fault for arranging that stupid childhood betrothal. That man doesn't think you're good enough for him? Well, we don't think much of him either."
"I'll introduce you to someone better later. Tall and handsome, broad shoulders and a slim waist, eight-pack abs, and knows how to treat you right."
Zhou Zeye scoffed inwardly. A catch like that would ever go for your daughter?

Later, at the university entrance, Zhou Zeye ran into Xu Nanxing again, the girl he had fallen for at first sight and secretly loved.
Xu Nanxing stood in the crowd, wearing a light blue medical mask. Her bright, sparkling almond-shaped eyes seemed to hold tiny stars.
The instant their eyes met, Zhou Zeye pressed a hand to his chest, feeling his heart race.
Damn, she's so freaking cute!
I'm going to pursue this woman even if it kills me!
Just as he was about to go over and introduce himself, the girl approached him with a delighted expression, hurrying toward... the person behind him.
Zhou Zeye turned around and saw his secret crush smiling sweetly as she linked arms with a woman. "Mom, you're here!"
What a coincidence. It was the devilish driving instructor he'd sworn never to see again after getting his license.
Zhou Zeye: "..."
Zhou Zeye: "Allow me to introduce myself again. My name is Zhou Zeye. I'm twenty years old, 188 centimeters tall, and pretty good-looking. I exercise regularly, have broad shoulders, a slim waist, and an eight-pack, and I'm great at treating people right."
