[Childhood Sweethearts, Two Top Students, Coming-of-Age, Sweet]
A seemingly aloof heroine with a busy inner monologue × a scheming, hopelessly lovestruck hero
Chen Ruyi and Xie Xingzhou had known each other since childhood. Chen Ruyi could outdo Xie Xingzhou in music, art, and even some sports, but when it came to studying, Xie Xingzhou always had the upper hand.
Everyone thought they were secretly competing.
That is, until Chen Ruyi defied everyone's objections and chose the worst-performing subject when classes were divided in their first year of high school, a subject completely opposite to Xie Xingzhou's.
The poorest resources, the highest floor, the fewest paths forward.
Everyone thought she was crazy. They whispered that she had chickened out.
But she knew she simply liked the subject.
It was her own, unique kind of heroism.
(As it turned out, when Xie Xingzhou realized he couldn't beat her at anything else, all he could do was study hard and hope Chen Ruyi would pay more attention to him.)
(A realistic high school schedule and daily routine.)
P.S. This is more than just a sweet romance. It's also a story about youth, growing up, and love.
