A Side Branch

[Rebirth + Sweet Romance + Mutual First Love + HE + Redemption + Short Story + Complete] [Comedic, high-maintenance girl vs. pure-hearted, slow-to-warm young master] A word of warning: This is a silly, sweet romance. Even after being reborn, the heroine won't spend all her time plotting revenge or anything like that. This is not a story where the heroine gets to steamroll everyone, so thank you for understanding! Friend: I like her. I'm going to pursue her. Yu Yan: Do what you want. Later... Friend: I'm crying. She has a boyfriend. Yu Yan: Mm. I'm her boyfriend. From the moment You Zhi first laid eyes on Yu Yan, she was already smitten with his looks. She loved his face, his figure, and his pleasant voice. She was always finding little chances to flirt with him. Later... With dimples in her cheeks and a playful smile tugging at her lips, You Zhi said, “So you’re letting your buddy pursue me, huh? Fine, fine!” She clapped her hands, her expression calm and her manner carefree. “Yu Yan, you’re something else.” Yu Yan’s eyes were black, their corners red. He seized You Zhi’s little hands and pinned them behind her back. “Xu You Zhi, you stirred me up, and now you think that’s not enough?” He lowered his head and leaned against her shoulder, his voice low, trembling with a hint of grievance. “Don’t look at anyone else. They’re no good.”
