Waiting for the Sunshine

[Sweet romance | One-on-one, both leads are devoted to each other | Healing | Secret crush becomes mutual | Reborn | Love grows over time]

[Sweet, shy, and well-behaved girl and a cool, cocky, handsome little troublemaker]

A month before the college entrance exams, Lin Xiangyu was reborn, returning to her second year of high school.

Her parents’ endless arguments had been a constant throughout her entire school life.

In this new life, Lin Xiangyu thought she was still just a worthless stone, trapped in filth and unable to glimpse the light.

But the boy who crossed her path on a summer breeze drove away the desolation that filled her life, bringing with him the blazing warmth of the sun.

The second time Shen Jinye saw the girl who looked so well-behaved and easy to bully, he asked, almost without thinking:

“Lin Xiangyu? Yu as in dried fish?”

Then he saw her lower her already bowed head even further, her voice so quiet he almost didn’t hear her.

“It’s yu as in elm tree.”

“How does that look anything like an elm tree?”

She was tall enough, but too skinny. Nothing like an elm tree.

She was more like a fish that had fallen into the water. Otherwise, why would her eyes well up with tears as soon as he got a little stern?

Everyone knew Shen Jinye was rich and handsome, with a privileged family background. When he turned girls down, he never bothered to change his reason: “I’m not dating. It’s pointless.” His cool, aloof attitude had crushed countless crushes.

“Stupid Fish, cry again and I’ll leave you here.”

“Stupid Fish, don’t cry.”

When word spread around the affiliated high school that Young Master Shen was lowering himself for a girl, everyone gasped.

Someone asked, “Does Shen Jinye like Lin Xiangyu?”

Shen Jinye answered without hesitation: “No.”

His group of troublemaking friends nearly fell over laughing when they heard that.

Bro, if you don’t like the girl, why do you look so pissed when someone confesses to her?

[The king of tough talk and fiercely protective affection]
