[Reborn + no System + no golden finger + one heroine + pure love + school romance] [I’m a new author, so please be kind! Thank you. Please forgive any inconsistencies. I’m a bit of a bot myself, so don’t overthink it!] [There’s a little angst in this story, but it has no bearing on the ending.]
After the high school entrance exam, he fails to get into his preferred school and ends up at a vocational high school. His scores were decent, so he gets into the college-prep class. Once there, he spends his days slacking off and has no interest in studying. A loner, he sits in the back row, staring out the window or sleeping. Sleeping through class and spacing out between classes has become his daily routine. The teachers leave him alone, and his homeroom teacher is at a loss. As for his parents, well, he won’t even give them the time of day.
Being reborn should have been wonderful for him, a chance to turn his life around. But because of everything that happened in his previous life, he needs to figure some things out. The cheerful, optimistic boy he used to be disappeared years ago. When the high school entrance exam ended, he returned to this point in time. Everything that had happened back then was already set in stone and could not be changed, but he still had one more chance to attend Experimental High School. In the end, he gave that up too.
Then a white-haired girl arrives and upends Chen Shi’s world, bringing a ray of light back into his life. He hopes he can protect that tiny ray of light forever! But at first, their time together doesn’t go as smoothly as he imagined.
“My name is Chen Shi. Please stay away from me. I’m not interested in you at all.”
