Description
On the first day Yuna became a class teacher, she became well-known in school because of her looks. On the second day of becoming a class teacher, a student secretly took photos of her with his phone and was called to the principal’s office with his Guardian. The person who showed up turned out to be Yuna’s university crush, Xiao Chen. To Yuna’s surprise, Xiao Chen was the elder brother of the very student whose class she manages. She also realized that this rebellious student causes trouble two or three days out of every week, indirectly giving them many chances to meet. … When they reunite again, Yuna is puzzled. Wasn’t Xiao Chen a poor young master in the past? How come he’s now driving luxury cars and living in mansions? Xiao Chen is also puzzled. Wasn’t Yuna a rich daddy’s girl in the past? How come she’s now dressing plainly and squeezing onto public transport?? … In the eyes of her students, Yuna is very beautiful but has always been diligent and thrifty, with little interest in money. However, one day a Rolls Royce showed up outside school, waiting. Upon seeing Yuna, the chauffeur respectfully opened the door for her, “Miss Yuna, please get in.” From that day forth, her true identity set off huge discussions in school.

My Thoughts on The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush
"The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush" is a completed web novel that I recently dove into, and I came out with mixed feelings. It's a story about Yu Na, a rich heiress trying to live independently as a teacher, who reconnects with her former college crush, Xiao Chen, when she starts teaching his cousin. While some readers seem to think the low ratings are undeserved, I can see where both the praise and the criticism are coming from.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise. A second chance romance with a bit of a role reversal (student's older brother!)? Sounds like fun! However, I quickly realized that this isn't a story driven by high stakes or intricate plotting. It's a slice-of-life romance, and your enjoyment will heavily depend on how much you connect with the characters and their journey.
What Works Well
The biggest strength of this novel is its focus on feel-good fluff. Many readers, including myself, appreciated the low-drama approach. Xiao Chen, the male lead, is a refreshing take on the typical CEO archetype. He's portrayed as a genuinely kind and grounded person, which makes him much more relatable. I also enjoyed the sweet and loving dynamic between Yu Na and Xiao Chen once they get together. The story avoids unnecessary love rivals and misunderstandings, focusing instead on the mundane, yet heartwarming, aspects of their relationship. The translation is also well done, which definitely enhances the reading experience.
Areas of Concern
While the lack of drama is a plus for some, it can also be a drawback. For me, the plot felt a bit too simplistic at times, and the romance progressed slowly. I can understand why some readers might find the characters bland or the female lead frustrating, especially in the early chapters. Her initial lack of self-respect and the male lead's "potato" personality can be off-putting.

Final Verdict
Overall, "The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush" is a decent read if you're in the mood for a lighthearted, low-drama romance. It's not groundbreaking, but it offers a sweet and fluffy escape. However, be prepared for a slow-burn romance and a potentially frustrating female lead in the beginning. I'd give it a solid 3.5/5. It's not perfect, but it's a worthwhile read if you know what to expect.
