Synopsis

[A heroine who's meek and pitiful at first, then turns her life around × a hero who seems warm and gentle but is actually lonely, unhinged, and jealous]

After learning that she has a terminal illness and not much time left, the heroine collapses. When she wakes, she finds herself back in her senior year of high school. She sets out to pursue her crush, save her best friend, and become an independent woman who shines bright and makes a difference.

A little scene:

That day, Chen Lan looked up at the setting sun and said, “Look at that sunset. Doesn't it look like it's been dyed with tangerines?”

Flustered, her mind went blank, and she blurted out:

“I don't like tangerines!”

He froze for a moment, seemingly surprised she'd say that.

She silently berated herself for saying the wrong thing again, but then she heard the smile in his voice as he said, “I don't like tangerines either. I like... strawberries.” The flustered girl, head bowed, didn't notice

that as he said it, he was looking at the strawberry hair clip she was wearing that day.
