Synopsis

Tsundere childhood friend x sweet, gentle childhood sweetheart

An utterly oblivious female lead who can't look after herself vs. a top student, tsundere all-rounder male lead who dotes on her alone

“Jiang Yun, could you please stop calling me stupid?”

“Jiang Yun, why are you so good to me?”

“Jiang Yun, who do you like?”

“Jiang Yun, mm...”

“Dummy, do you really still not know who I like?”

The school held a sports meet and required everyone to sign up. Pei Ruan from the School of Architecture went to Jiang Yun of the Computer Science Department looking pitifully at him. “Yunyun, I can't walk, jump, or run~”

So the School of Architecture won the overall championship at the sports meet. The student with the highest score was Jiang Yun, whose points went to the School of Architecture while his enrollment belonged to the Computer Science Department.

The young man stepped up to accept the award, his thin lips pressed together. His low, rich voice came through the microphone: “Thank you. I participated on behalf of Pei Ruan from the School of Architecture.”

Everyone from the Computer Science Department cursed him out: “Choosing love over friends! What a dog!”

The people from the School of Architecture cheered: “Jiang Yun is so manly! Jiang Yun, you're a god to our school!”

Finals were coming up. Pei Ruan, who had left everything to the last minute, realized she couldn't cram her way through it and went to Jiang Yun with a pout. “Yunyun, I can't draw the plans. Wataxi is a silly dummy~”

So Jiang Yun's roommates watched him stay up all night at his computer cramming her coursework, then saw him in the library patiently teach his girlfriend by hand. “Dummy, you don't draw this axis like that. It should be a dashed line...”

It turned out Jiang Yun had stayed up all night to learn her major's coursework, all because she had said, “I'm scared I'll fail.”

A sweet college romance! Multiple side couples! It's all about the sweetness!

It was so good! Although the ending was a bit sudden, it was undeniably sweet 😳 Of course, it wasn't just Ruan Ruan and A Yun who were sweet; all the other couples were also quite sweet and reassuring 😋 Overall, it was super good! There are two regrets: first, Ruan Ruan's parents couldn't spend enough time with her, and she was even wronged; second, Jiang Nanchen didn't fall in love with Cheng…

It's so good! I'm totally hooked on all the couples! I highly recommend it. The author even replies to our comments – you really put your heart into it! The friendship, romance, and even the love triangle are all great. The main characters are vivid and lifelike; each character has a unique soul. It's definitely worth watching, everyone should check it out! 😘😘😘😘 @

The story is a bit short, and the ending is a little too abrupt, but it's still worth reading even if you don't like long stories. The plot is excellent, and the relationship between the male and female leads is very strong. Importantly, everyone here has a mouth, so there won't be too many misunderstandings. The recommended version is really good. When I first started reading, the rating wasn't very high, but after finishing it, I think it's truly excellent!

I feel a little sad that Cheng Ting and Jiang Nanchen didn't end up together. I really liked them both, and the other characters were also good.

Why did it end so suddenly? There weren't any scenes of the couples getting married or pregnant yet! It was still a very good show though; it would have been great if they had included the wedding scenes of the other couples.
