An old school romance I wrote a long time ago and kept on my computer for years. A sweet youth romance set in high school.
At 32, Nan Xiaozhi has no money. Her parents died young, and growing up poor left her severely malnourished. In high school, she had been an excellent student, ranking second in her school, and was known alongside Wen Jinchu as one of Jiangcheng’s two shining stars. But a family crisis forced Nan Xiaozhi to drop out. After her parents passed away, she attends a class reunion, where everyone gets drunk. From their conversation, Nan Xiaozhi learns that Wen Jinchu, the rich boy from high school, used to like her. Now he is about to marry Shu Shengsheng, who has pursued him ever since high school. Having lost her parents because they had no money, Nan Xiaozhi resents the rich. To her surprise, an accident sends her back to her high school days, and she is determined to change her fate.
Wen Jinchu had already had a soft spot for Nan Xiaozhi, the girl who ranked second. He only ended up with Shu Shengsheng because she kept pursuing him, but over time, he gradually fell in love with her.
Reborn in high school, Nan Xiaozhi gets close to Wen Jinchu because she wants to be with him so she can spend his money and save up enough to handle her family’s crisis when it comes. But before long, she finds herself falling for the gentle, levelheaded Wen Jinchu.
A calm yet sensitive genius girl × a gentle, levelheaded, brilliant top student
“I know you like me because I’m rich. Nan Xiaozhi, if I’m rich, can you keep liking me forever?”
“Wen Jinchu, I’m only after your money.” “I know.”
Even a genius girl can fall for the kindness and affection of a rational, good-hearted top student.
