The Academic Rivals At Suxi University’s School of Economics, the Statistics Department is divided between two academic titans.

One is a social butterfly who seems to treat life as a game, yet possesses an uncanny ability to sniff out academic trends and publish in

top-tier economic journals.

The other is a relentless scholar, a PhD candidate devoted to solving mathematical riddles that have remained stagnant for decades.

To the public, Dr. Shen Rujiao is the “Inaccessible Flower,” a rigorous academic who surely despises the “opportunistic” Song Zhiwan.

Conversely, everyone assumes the vibrant, socialite Song Zhiwan has no patience for the icy, stoic Shen Rujiao.

No one knows their secret. Seven years ago, on a night of driving rain and crashing thunder, a trembling girl whispered, “Sister, I’m scared,”

before collapsing into the other’s arms, her every defense shattered.

The Reunion After their paths cross again, Song Zhiwan begins a calculated game of cat and mouse, slowly drawing Shen Rujiao into her social circle.

Just as the tension reaches its peak, Song Zhiwan loses her patience and confesses her feelings.

She didn’t expect the reaction: a cold, piercing stare filled with such profound disappointment and disbelief that it cut deeper than words.

Song Zhiwan was nothing if not decisive. Once rejected, she severed all ties with a clean strike of the blade, vanishing from Shen Rujiao’s life once more.

The Breaking Point Following the rejection, Shen Rujiao’s heart is in agony. She forces herself into a state of cold repression, fighting every urge to seek the girl out.

The facade finally crumbles when the secret identity of the lyricist she has admired for years is unmasked. It’s Song Zhiwan. Watching from the shadows

as Zhiwan shares an intimate, electric moment on stage with a popular singer, Shen Rujiao finally snaps. Losing all control, she pins the girl against the

wall in a dark, narrow stairwell, devouring her lips in a desperate kiss.

Song Zhiwan simply pushes her away with a mocking laugh. “Senior Sister, I thought you only saw me as a younger sister?”

The Light in the Dark. Since that chance encounter at a national math competition seven years ago, Song Zhiwan had always seen Shen Rujiao

as her guiding light.

But what she never knew was that in the quietest hours of the night, whenever Shen Rujiao closed her eyes, the very first image that appeared in

Her mind was the radiant memory of Song Zhiwan’s smile.
