We're Not Close, But I'm Living with a Cold-Faced, Rough-Hewn Man!

[Original title: When I Backed Away Again, I Bumped Right Into His Arms]

[Roguishly handsome, rugged auto shop owner vs. Beautiful, aloof university lecturer]

An auto repair shop opened across from the school. Its owner, Qin Zheng, was flirtatious and carefree, and didn't look like a particularly respectable man.

Tao Ying tried to avoid him, but he stopped her as she turned to leave. "Why are you running? Is your car broken?"

Tao Ying: "Yeah."

Qin Zheng repaired her car properly.

Later...

When the two of them were seen getting handsy at school, a colleague teased her, "Teacher Tao, is there something going on between you two?"

Tao Ying, who had been forced to live with Qin Zheng, hurriedly shook her head. "We're not close."

That evening, when she got home, someone suddenly dragged Tao Ying inside, pressed her against the door, and kissed her passionately.

"Teacher Tao, are we close now?"
