The Love Life with Professor Cheng

At first, Cheng Xiyao’s extra care for Zhou Xiaomi was simply because she was his senior Lin Bohua’s student.

His sense of responsibility and ethics led him to help her several times.

Until her graduation ceremony.

Gentle and refined, Cheng Xiyao sat in an inconspicuous seat in the audience, watching the little girl on stage in a cheongsam.

She had shed her youthful innocence and now showed a graceful curve he had never seen before, looking so well-matched with her young male partner.

A fire, unknown and burning in his chest, ignited.

A fire called jealousy and possessiveness.

“You have to run like a real adult, but who doesn’t want to occasionally be a little girl who never grows up?”

– **Age Gap Romance**: The male lead is older, mature, and initially distant.

– **Growth Arc**: The female lead evolves from a naive student to a self-assured woman.

– **Slow-Burn Attraction**: The professor’s feelings develop gradually, leading to a forbidden yet heart-fluttering dynamic.

– **No Teacher-Student Relationship**: Despite the academic setting, they are **not** in a direct mentor-student relationship, avoiding ethical conflicts.
