In The Name of Love

Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo have one unbreakable rule: what happens outside the university stays outside the university.

To everyone at Bristol University, Xiao Zhan is a respected professor, and Wang Yibo is nothing more than his student and the university's football captain. Their interactions are professional, distant, and carefully controlled.

No one knows that, beyond the university gates, they share a home... and a love they've spent years keeping hidden.

But the life they've carefully built is about to be tested.

As suspicious eyes begin following them, the walls around their quiet world slowly begin to close in.

Powerful enemies return, old loyalties are tested, and dangerous lies resurface. And impossible choices threaten to destroy everything they've fought so hard to protect.

When the line between love and truth begins to blur, Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo must decide how much they're willing to risk for each other.

In a story of forbidden love, hidden truths, betrayal, and second chances, one question remains...

Can love survive when the truth is the most dangerous secret of all?
