[Completed!!!]
Tanned, awkward, self-conscious male lead x sunny, honest female lead
What is the relationship between Li Yuan and Ji Ruyu?
They can't stand each other.
Li Yuan is smart, good-looking, and comes from a good family. Aside from his grades, these are all things Ji Ruyu can only dream of having.
Ji Ruyu is surprisingly straightforward, something Li Yuan envies and resents.
*
The most dazzling boy at Haicheng High School has now become her direct junior colleague. Ji Ruyu never saw that coming.
"Mentor" is what Li Yuan calls Ji Ruyu, and the title feels strange to her.
"Little Li" is what Ji Ruyu calls Li Yuan. Since he's pretending not to know her, she might as well pretend not to know him.
More than friends, less than lovers. Their relationship has crossed the line, and all it needs is for one of them to make the first move.
Li Yuan knows he can't measure up to Lu Yanjun. His inferiority complex gets the better of him,
And he imagines Ji Ruyu as a match sputtering with sparks, ready to catch fire the moment it gets a little oxygen.
So Li Yuan decides to leave Haicheng. He calls it leaving, but it feels more like running away at the last moment.

She rested a hand on Li Yuan's arm, trying to comfort him. "A Yuan, imagine that you were the one who'd been broken up with. After only seeing me a few times, would you forgive me? Even if you did, you wouldn't decide to get back together right away." Ji Ruyu spoke softly. Li Yuan knew she was saying this out of self-interest.
*
"It's not exactly a proper proposal. Can you take it as a gift?" Li Yuan lifted Ji Ruyu onto his lap. "Ruyu, I love you. I don't want to lose you again. Will you go out with me again?"
She kissed him first, parting his lips, then brushed a light kiss across his cheek. "That's my answer."
