I Drew My Secret Crush, the Buddhist Uncle, as My Comic Hero

I Drew My Secret Crush, the Buddhist Uncle, as My Comic Hero Plot:

Chu Manman, an intern cartoonist, has a secret crush on Uncle Lin Shenyu, her Buddhist neighbor—he always wears a moon-white meditation robe, twirls prayer beads gently with his fingers, and even looks like an ascetic Buddhist figure from a painting when he bends down to play with cats. To save her comic from being canceled, she impulsively uses Lin Shenyu as the prototype to create *Zen Heart*. Unexpectedly, the comic becomes a hit, and the male lead "Chanyue" becomes the "white moonlight" of teenage girls. Manman starts to panic: she tries to test if Lin Shenyu has found out by deliberately bringing him pear syrup candy, while hiding the comic under her mattress. Little does she know, Lin Shenyu had already seen the draft on her forgotten tablet—his portrait in the drawing even includes the small mole under his collar. And in the drawer of his meditation room, there are the ginkgo leaves Manman gave him when she was 16, along with an unfinished note: "I've remembered your face for seven years."
