Features: Xia Yu is a beautiful and intelligent female teacher's college student. Her extraordinary talent and melancholic demeanor attract the special attention of her homeroom teacher, Lin Jun, and the two develop a relationship from mutual understanding to love. Unfortunately, Lin Jun already has a wife and children, and this scandalous teacher-student romance causes a sensation on campus, naturally leading to their breakup. Lin Jun is transferred out of the school as a result. The passionate and tumultuous love story, vividly portrayed by the author, is both heart-stirring in its tragedy and heart-wrenching in its innocence. In a materialistic and hedonistic commercial society, it allows readers to experience an emotional elevation and a spiritual purification. This book can be compared to romance novels like Queenie's By the Window and Xiao Si's Seventeen Years of Solitude. The numerous "Xia Yu's Diaries" in the book are not only faithful records of the protagonist's inner journey but also give the book a unique structure.
