The World Tilts Toward You

[A driven, upward-climbing heroine X an unruly, hard-to-tame prodigy]

In the summer of 2018, the college entrance exam results came out.

With an outstanding score, Li Lu became the top science student in her city and received an admission letter from Qing University.

Qian Jin, her homeroom teacher for all three years of high school, bragged to everyone he met: “That's right, the city's top science student was in my class! And she won a gold medal in the Olympiad, too!”

People wondered why she hadn't chosen the recommendation route back then.

No one knew.

She'd strayed from her path just to wait for someone who never showed up.

Years later, after graduating from college, Li Lu returned to her hometown alone.

Then, at a work dinner, she unexpectedly came face-to-face with the person she'd once tried so hard to forget.

The boy in her memory was still as spirited as ever. He crossed the bustling crowd and walked toward her.

“I'm back.”

“Li Lu.”

Time stood still.

Li Lu parted her lips, just like the girl who'd gathered the courage to confess that night:

“Xie Jinye, what about now?”

“Do you still like me?”

Every night, the boy across the ocean had hidden his love in letters. After years and a twelve-hour time difference, those feelings finally reached Li Lu today.

A cool kiss fell, and Xie Jinye's voice was full of hurt:

“I love you so much.”

He crossed mountains and rivers, all for you.

Unrequited love fulfilled, mutual feelings, a sweet bedtime treat
