Ruan Bai was utterly speechless.
Lately, she had become obsessed with a novel that told the story of a handsome, slightly rebellious high school boy — the campus heartthrob — who fell for an academically gifted genius. He later changed his ways, and together they both got admitted into a university.
She had stayed up all night reading, completely envious of that kind of pure and refreshing love story between the two.
But when she woke up the next morning, she discovered that she had become the campus heartthrob’s stepmother in the novel!
Since she was already here, she decided to make the best of it. Let’s see how she would carve out her own new path within this story!
1. They were a real father and son, truly related by blood.
2. There was an age difference — ten years. The male lead was thirty-six, and his son was fifteen. The man had been set up in the past, resulting in the birth of his son, whom he raised alone. (The author could only accept a ten-year age gap at most; anything beyond that felt impossible to write.)
3. The female lead had many flaws — she was difficult, temperamental, and never hesitated to snap back whenever she was unhappy.
