In her senior year of high school, Lin Xiaoran was pushed off a rooftop during an argument after a night of drinking.
When she opened her eyes again, the calendar showed the first day of her freshman year. She was still the same “hopeless slacker” who slept through class, handed in blank exams, and made a name for herself by getting into fights.
The memories of her previous life were still painfully vivid: her parents had worn themselves out worrying about her, her best friend had been forced to drop out because of her, and the top student who sat beside her, the one she had always bullied, had said with red-rimmed eyes as she lay dying, “You really could have turned your life around.”
This time, Lin Xiaoran gripped her crumpled report card.
Sleep in class? Not a chance. Exams? She'd just have to grind through them. The dean who used to chase her around now stared at her award for most improved exam scores, so stunned his glasses nearly fell off.
But... why did the top student who she'd stolen homework from and doodled all over his textbooks in her previous life keep staring at her like, “Have you been possessed?”
Jiang Chen: “Lin Xiaoran, you actually know how to solve this problem?”
Lin Xiaoran (scratching her head guiltily): “Uh... I guessed.”
Jiang Chen (handing her his notebook): “There are three ways to solve it here. Guessing one right is pretty lucky.”
From the bottom of the class to a top student, from being ignored to becoming the center of attention, Lin Xiaoran didn't just want to rewrite her own fate. She also wanted to protect, one by one, the people she'd let down in her previous life.
And what about the top student who was always helping her from the shadows and occasionally blushing?
As Lin Xiaoran watched the sunlight shine on his profile, she suddenly realized...
Being reborn seemed to be about more than just studying.
