This novel is also known as When I Met a Maths Master Online. The main story is complete, with bonus chapters dropping at random!

Shu Yue is a total maths disaster.

Her disastrous score in the subject during the Gaokao (national university entrance exam) meant she missed out on her dream university, Tsinghua, and ended up at Jiaotong University next door instead.

In her first year, she made another slip-up: she messed up the course registration schedule and was left with only one option Advanced Mathematics. Shu Yue felt like her head was going to explode. The only thing she truly hated in this world was maths!

One day, Shu Yue couldn’t help but vent her frustration on Weibo, posting all the tricky problems she couldn’t understand. Many warm-hearted netizens commented, and one user, known only as 【S】, patiently and thoroughly answered every single one of her questions.

Shu Yue immediately decided to latch onto S, hoping to scr*pe by until the end of the term and somehow manage to achieve the passing mark of 60. She quickly followed S and sent him a direct message.

Initially, Shu Yue only asked S for help with her homework. Gradually, she began treating him as a close friend, sharing snippets of her everyday life. Later, they even exchanged WeChat details and chatted nonstop. She was even more astonished when she learned S was a student at Tsinghua.

It wasn’t until she heard a male voice coming from the background of a cat live photo S posted that she realised S was a boy.

A boy! And she had been calling him ‘sweetheart’ every day while sharing all her private life details.

Meeting him face-to-face was absolutely out of the question. She sent him a lengthy thank-you on WeChat, transferred him £100 (1000 RMB) as a thank-you fee, and deleted his account right then and there.

Shu Yue figured that running away might be cowardly, but it was certainly effective.

However, fate had other plans. Shu Yue happened to attend a photography event, where she was instantly approved to add a new contact on WeChat—it was S.

Before Shu Yue could process the shock, the boy leaned closer, a knowing smirk playing on his lips. “Shu Yue, you promised to buy me a meal after your Advanced Maths exam, didn’t you?”

One afternoon, the couple was curled up on the sofa watching television. Shu Yue rested her head on his shoulder and mumbled, “Well, I just felt too embarrassed back then, that’s why I ran off.”

Jiang Shu (S) pulled her close, leaning in to whisper softly in her ear, “In front of me, there’s nothing embarrassing about you.”

I only think you’re adorable.
