Trade School Romance

Story Synopsis After failing the high school entrance exam and enrolling in a vocational school, Lin Wanwan expects her days to pass quietly amid engine oil, practical classes, and ordinary routines. She keeps her head down, works hard, and takes every hands-on exercise seriously, wanting only to learn a trade properly. Then transfer student Shen Yubai walks into her electrical workshop, and the teacher assigns him to be her practical partner. The boy looks laid-back and aloof, seemingly indifferent in class, but his practical skills are exceptional. He doesn’t blindly follow textbook rules and has his own way of thinking. The stuffy workshop building and the classroom full of solder and engine-oil fumes become the backdrop to their meeting, along with screwdrivers, wires, and multimeters. One is diligent, grounded, and follows the rules; the other is easygoing, perceptive, and exceptionally capable. Amid the busy life of vocational school, the two teenagers, whose paths had never crossed before, gradually grow closer through one practical project after another and their everyday interactions. They face practical assessments and the small frustrations of campus life together. In the lively, down-to-earth world of their vocational school, they pursue their own futures while slowly developing the first, uncertain stirrings of affection.
