I recommend you a modern romance novel called "Wait for Me to Love You for the Rest of My Life". Although the female lead's name is not exactly the same, the story is very consistent with the description. In this novel, the female protagonist was also called Yu Yao. At first, she was pursued by Zhuo Xirui, but later she met another boy and started university life. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
