My Female Tutor

Also known as: Destined to Be You

Li Qing: “Every man and woman has a certain enzyme in their body that gives off a unique scent.

The enzyme in each person's body is one of a kind. Some people have an enzyme missing a particular gene, while others have an extra gene.

The scent produced by the enzyme in each person's body is different. Yet every man and woman has certain people whose enzyme scents are naturally drawn to theirs.

So, when an unfamiliar man and woman meet at close range or pass each other, if the scents produced by their enzymes attract one another, then in theory there's a greater than ninety percent chance they'll hit it off. Oh, no, I mean fall in love at first sight!”

Su Yue: “Is that true?”

In 1995, just after Li Qing breaks up with his girlfriend, who is leaving to study abroad, he meets Su Yue, a university student whose circumstances have left her struggling to make ends meet. She plans to support herself by working as a private tutor.

From then on, the two become entangled.

Are they a perfect match, or is it love at first sight?

This novel tells the love story between its leads, as well as the conflicts that arise from differences in their regional cultures. It also depicts the changes in society since the 1990s and the little-known industry in which the male lead works.
