MC know he's technically 29, that's why he doesn't act on his feelings. + He doesn't know if he will ever be there next year, and that's why he say he's doesn't want to date. If you have read Dumb Husky and His White Cat Shizun, Chu Wanning fall in love at 1st sight with mc when he's I don't remember 15 maybe? But he never act upon his feelings and never discriminate people just bcs he likes mc. And they only end up together after mc confess to him when mc 25. So yeah
rightt it’s giving me the ick lowkey like I know nothing actually romantic has actually happened yet but the fact the author made the mc 29 is so weird even if he’s technically “19” in the story I think it makes it even weirder because the author constantly puts in little things to show how much of a age gap they have like
not that bothered by it but how is he inlove with someone whos in highschool
