The School Leader’s Little Ancestor

Civil-service setting · Scheming · Age gap · Sweet pet romance

Autumn is in full bloom at Jing University. At 35, Qin Baizhou arrives in low profile as the new Party committee secretary. Rigorous and self-disciplined, he is known in the education world for his “iron-fisted governance,” and this transfer is recognition from his superiors of his ability.

On the weekend, Qin Baizhou goes alone to the “Moxiang” bookstore near campus to buy management books. Through the gap between the shelves, he sees Su Su in the art section, absorbed in flipping through design albums. Sunlight spills over her, and the unconscious way she bites the pen cap while thinking makes Qin Baizhou’s heart skip a beat.

At the school gate of Jing University, Qin Baizhou’s official car suddenly breaks down. Hurrying to an important meeting, he looks anxious. Su Su, cycling past, recognizes him as the man from the bookstore and offers to give him a ride. Their close contact on the bicycle makes Qin Baizhou fall for her again, but in the rush they fail to exchange contact information.
