Still on the Road to Clearing My Name Today

[Complete. Elementary-school-level writing, an old and embarrassing relic. Maybe it won't go behind a paywall. School life in the first half, and... maybe wealthy-family feuds later?

The romance isn't angsty. It's light throughout and easy to read, though it may also be hard to follow.]

[Reborn into Another Body]

Nan Bei is reborn as another young nouveau riche. Sure enough, just as expected, this body is full of stains and needs him to turn its life around.

Q: What do you do if your grades are bad?

Nan Bei: "? Are you asking how much room there is for improvement when you're at the bottom of the class? Obviously, the sky's the limit!"

Q: What do you do about school bullying?

Nan Bei: "? I don't bully anyone!"

Q: What do you do about your love life?

Nan Bei: "? Know the school bully in the class next door? Yeah! Not him! I tease him, but I won't confess. That's right, I'm just messing around!"

"Nan Bei, don't you think you're going too far by leading me on?"

"Sorry, I did it on purpose!"

Both are inexperienced, one-on-one

Shen Cong x Nan Bei

Cold on the outside, warm on the inside, school bully seme who doesn't hit people x Reborn uke who does whatever he wants and thinks he's the coolest

<I know it's not very well written, but it's in the past. Don't nitpick.>

[I'm bad at writing blurbs, and bad at writing the story too (muttering quietly)]
