● Both are inexperienced in love / The top has a secret crush

● Lu Pei (bottom) vs. Cheng Shao (top)

Lu Pei is a rich young master, a typical one, very wealthy.

Recently, Lu Pei was bored, so he casually flipped through a novel belonging to his younger cousin. The protagonist had the same name as him, but with a different character.

Lu Pei's name was written as Lu Pei with the character for “compensation.” Just how much did his family dislike him to give him a name like that?

He never expected to fall asleep while reading, much less to wake up and discover that he had transmigrated into a book! Lu Pei had become Lu Pei, the other version!

In the original story, this poor art teacher was a pushover, there for everyone to bully. On top of his unhappy family background, he barely had any classes at school, so he was treated like a brick: wherever there was a need, he was sent to fill in! Lu Pei, used to his rich lifestyle, couldn't accept this at all!

Worse, while enduring a life of poverty, he also had to put up with the dean's attitude!

Lu Pei thought, Fine, so he's poor. He would help Lu Pei get justice!

So the first thing Lu Pei did after transmigrating into a book was restore his natural hair color: a bright, sparkling blond!

When Lu Pei showed up to the grade-level meeting with that blond hair, he clearly saw Cheng Shao turn green!

From then on, Lu Pei and Cheng Shao began their battle of wits!

Cheng Shao: “Mr. Lu, dye your hair back.”

Lu Pei: “No! Is there any school rule saying teachers can't dye their hair?”

The next day, Lu Pei saw Cheng Shao with blue hair.

Damn! Is this a contest to see who's more handsome?

Cheng Shao: “Mr. Lu, Class 1 has a free period for art!”

Lu Pei: “Oh, the English teacher took the class. If there's a problem, he's fully responsible.”

Right after that, Lu Pei saw Cheng Shao walk into their classroom and stand at the lectern while the school administrators were making their rounds.

What, trying to show off in front of the administrators? Not a chance!

Cheng Shao: “Mr. Lu, the school has decided you'll be the homeroom teacher for Class 1.”

Lu Pei: “Ridiculous. Have you ever heard of an art teacher being the homeroom teacher for a ninth-grade class?”

Help! Why did Lu Pei feel like he had to attend even more meetings after becoming a homeroom teacher?

But gradually, Lu Pei realized something was off. Cheng Shao seemed to be looking at him differently and differently.

One rainy day, he had no choice but to accept a ride home from Cheng Shao. When they reached his apartment building, Cheng Shao suddenly pinned him against the passenger seat and said pitifully,

“Pei Pei, when are you finally going to say yes to me?”

Lu Pei quickly covered his butt with both hands. Help! When did the book say Cheng Shao confessed to Lu Pei? He wasn't into men!

**

Cheng Shao thought Lu Pei had been acting strangely ever since school started after summer vacation. No, extremely strangely.

How had the usually well-behaved Lu Pei turned into such a flamboyant, domineering rich young master? He'd even changed his name to Lu Pei!

Could it be... could it be that he hadn't made his feelings clear enough?

No matter. He would keep treating Lu Pei, no, Lu Pei well.

After he confessed again, Lu Pei's words hurt Cheng Shao deeply. He couldn't forget the way Lu Pei looked at him and called him shameless.

That rainy night, Cheng Shao drank himself into a stupor. In a daze, he seemed to see Lu Pei. The man who swore he'd never get with another man was lying beneath him, moaning seductively.

Cheng Shao was overjoyed. He called Lu Pei's name again and again, but when he woke up, he was alone.

Could it really have just been a dream?

When Lu Pei brought him a leave request to sign, Cheng Shao grew concerned and used his position as dean to ask why he needed time off.

To his surprise, the usually arrogant Lu Pei suddenly blushed. “Can't I get my hemorrhoids checked?”

I knew this was a mistake, but I had already fallen too deep.

The clatter of my horse's hooves was a beautiful mistake. I am not returning home, only passing through.

[Reader's Guide]:

1. Both are inexperienced in love.

2. The transmigration-into-a-book element doesn't take up much of the story. It mainly focuses on the school lives of two teachers.

3. Many details are author-created, so don't overthink the little things.

4. The last two lines of the blurb: the first line comes from Teacher Zhong Zhentao's “A Mistake” and Teacher Zheng Chouyu's “Passerby.” They were chosen for their beauty, and don't match how the story ends.
