[Rebirth x redemption x school life x yandere boy, both leads devoted to each other]
Pei Niannian died not long after learning that Fu Mingzhou loved her.
Her life had once been happy and complete, but everything fell apart around the time she graduated from high school. Her childhood sweetheart cheated on her, her father died in the line of duty, and her mother, overcome with grief, took her own life. Little by little, Pei Niannian grew numb.
Fu Mingzhou was the heir to the Fu family of Haicheng. As a boy, he met someone who became the cinnabar mark in his heart, a light he never dared reach for.
He loved her in secret for his entire life, never daring to let his unrequited love know how madly he loved her, even up until the day he died.
Pei Niannian was sent by her company to report on disaster relief when an earthquake and landslide struck. Just before she fell into those warm arms, she was astonished. All she could remember was how badly she had treated him in high school.
At the brink of death, Pei Niannian heard Fu Mingzhou whisper in her ear, “Niannian, stay alive.”
Reborn with the System, Pei Niannian seeks out Fu Mingzhou, her mind full of questions about why he would risk his life to save her, how to save her father, and how to stay away from the scumbag.
Only much later does Pei Niannian finally learn the answer: someone had secretly loved her for a very, very long time in her previous life.
Later, Pei Niannian asks, full of questions, “Zhouzhou, why didn’t I meet you sooner?”
Fu Mingzhou smiles and ruffles her hair. “It was all fate. This time, the gods are on my side.”
