Synopsis

[Cool-faced cutie who lives to study × boyish charm who can’t stop flirting]

[Slow-burn campus romance | Mutual pining, real or fake? | Push and pull to the limit | Ensemble coming-of-age]

Lin Xi lives up to her name: all she cares about is studying.

After seventeen years of being a model student who worked hard and kept improving, she gets with the times and awakens as the heroine of a novel.

The plot is pretty lame: the clichéd story of a real and fake heiress.

She’s the fake one.

After a paternity test gets her dumped, the next bit of the plot has her playing cat and mouse with the domineering male lead.

Lin Xi makes a clean getaway.

She transfers back to this ordinary little town and keeps her focus on studying, but her deskmate is kind of annoying, constantly making up scenes in his head.

“Here are the ways a crush can harm your studies…”

“How tragic it is to love the wrong person…”

“A secret crush is just pointless emotional turmoil…”

Lin Xi: ?

What’s that about?

The heroine runs away, so fate simply bundles up the other three and sends them after her.

The love-triangle showdown may be late, but it’s here.

Lin Xi gets cornered while reaching for a book.

The original male lead sneers. “Hah, you’re just trying to get my attention, aren’t you, woman?”

Lin Xi takes a deep breath and holds back her right hand, which is itching to punch him three miles away. Beside her, the real heiress, the second female lead, blinks her adorably clueless eyes as she enjoys the show, while the fun-loving second male lead watches from afar.

Uh-oh, she can’t hold back her fist.

Suddenly, someone saunters in, a carefree smile playing on his lips, and drops a bombshell.

“Hey, are you playing mahjong?”

Keep laughing. Your comeuppance is here.

Lin Xi calmly tugs at his clothes, her eyes dull with boredom. “Boyfriend, what took you so long?”

Xie Xu, the famous handsome guy passing by: ?

That’s a pretty aggressive move. Her secret crush just turned into an open confession!

偶然间看到的一本，差点被名字给骗了，误打误撞点进来发现很好看！！！[爱慕][爱慕]女主的性格很好，外表冷酷但内心温柔的小女孩，给我的感觉很帅！很酷！很厉害！（一拳揍飞三个？[思考]）[笑]男主很搞笑，偏阳光开朗但抽象的性格，还是个恋爱脑+自我攻略，女主夸一句就吊成翘嘴了！

The female lead is incredibly cute, with a charmingly cold yet adorable personality. The male lead is a bit of a flirt (not really), a witty and humorous high school boy. The plot is heartwarming, without any annoying villains or any female rivalry. Overall, it's a sweet bedtime story. I love it! *(^O^)/*

It's great! I might not be good at writing reviews, so I can't really explain it, but it's just great. The male lead is also a great character, a very refreshing type. If you met someone like him in high school, you'd definitely have a crush on him for three years! He respects girls, does abstract art, and is handsome—that's a big plus! The female lead is also great.

May Lin Xiaoxi and Xie Xiaoxu be happy forever. Xiao Xi's cool exterior couldn't hide the gentleness in her bones; Xiao Xu was bright and unrestrained, carrying the unique spirit of youth, a little bit flirtatious. I think it was this unrestrained youthful energy that warmed the cold moon, leading the two to embrace. Lin Xiao Xi and Xie Xiao Xu 99!!

It's super delicious... Why is Tomato's rating so low? It should be at least 9.5. Xql is adorable; the character design and plot are both clean and heartwarming. My spiritual nourishment. It makes high school days seem less terrible now. The xql interactions are really adorable, with a refreshing plot and a beautiful world.

It's a very good read, the writing is excellent and natural, and the plot is very immersive. At first, I thought the male lead was a sleazy hoodlum, but as I read on, my opinion changed. He's optimistic, cheerful, reliable, and has a wonderful personality. The female lead is also adorably cold, and she's a genius at studying.

No kidding, it's super, super good! "Let's Study Like This 99" has a very slice-of-life and heartwarming style, and I love the writing! The personalities of the male and female leads are even cuter. Xie Xu is the supremely charming and carefree king, sunny and cheerful, a god of youthful energy!

Lin Xi (A cool but soft-feathered little swan 🦢 / A fierce-looking but cute cat 🐱) x Xie Xu (A warm-faced, cheeky, and witty little dog 🐶) Ahhhhhh!! It's super good!! A youth campus romance novel, no villains 🦹🏻‍♂️ and super sweet! It definitely deserves a 9 or higher rating!! Cold-faced cuteness in normal times: ᗜ - ᗜ When someone with a cool, aloof expression is shy: ,,ᗜ - ᗜ,,

Ahhh, someone who just graduated can't handle the last few chapters! It was supposed to be a happy story, but it made me cry all night! The beginning was a genuine youth campus novel! It had friendship, youthful passion, and even romance in the middle! The plot points were plentiful and not clichéd! The school anniversary celebration at the end made me cry again; everyone should be well!

Why is this book rated so low? It's so good! The cold-faced cuteness and the warm-faced flirtatiousness are a match made in heaven! There are no villains, it's a pure youth campus novel, simply amazing and delicious!!! 😳
