A sugary school romance at first, followed by a second-chance love story
Just a tiny bit of angst for a chapter or two. The leads actually talk things out.
At school: a goofy, cheerful heiress × a carefree, mischievous young master who's a top student and knows where to draw the line
Later: a fallen heiress × a sharp-tongued but soft-hearted young master
In the youth that unfolded beneath the camphor trees of Qingchuan No. 1 High School, Jiang Zhou and Gu Jinhe met.
He was a universally acknowledged genius, always at the top of his class. His smile held an easy, nonchalant charm, as if he could navigate any rule the world threw at him. She was a free-spirited breeze, her smile bright as sunlight scattered into a thousand pieces. A goofy queen of jokes lived in her soul, and she was every bit his equal in class.
Being seated together was a move fate made on the Qingchuan campus. Two stars, equally brilliant yet utterly different, collided amid stacks of exam papers and the hubbub of club recruitment, sparking something neither had expected. The flutter of young love, like stars keeping watch through a sleepless summer night, quietly lit up their worlds.
They once came so close that they thought they could journey together among the glittering stars. But at the crossroads of growing up, winds rose over Qingchuan, and their blazing young feelings could not withstand the tides of reality or the sharp edges of their pride. Yet Qingchuan never sleeps. When fate's hands turn back to the starting point, will their dream of youth, love, and missed chances finally see the dawn?
