Su Qing, a strikingly attractive college English teacher, and Lin Chen, a refined physics lecturer, were classmates at university. By coincidence, they both joined the same college after graduation. For seven years, they have been the best-matched partners in the office and the most trusted friends in each other’s lives, yet both have tacitly avoided discussing their love lives. It is only at a department mixer for single faculty members, after a couple of glasses of champagne, that Su Qing realizes Lin Chen has never worn a wedding ring.
When they reunite on alumni homecoming day, they walk side by side along the familiar tree-lined path. The class notes they used to pass around, their quiet discussions in the library, and the unspoken wishes at their graduation party all come flooding back. As memories of youth collide with feelings in the present, they finally see that what they feel for each other has long gone beyond friendship. Yet they hesitate before the safety of the word “friends,” afraid that if they cross that line, they might lose even the warmth of the past seven years.
This is a sweet tug-of-war between friendship and love. Watch as cheerful, sexy Teacher Su melts the defenses of the rational and reserved Teacher Lin, turning seven years of friendship into a lifetime of love.
