Lin Yue’s previous life was a tragedy steeped in regret. After failing the college entrance exam, she struggled to make her way through life. Her family business was maliciously targeted and collapsed, and her parents died one after the other, unable to bear the burden. As she ran out of strength in poverty, her mind was filled with the regretful thought, “If only I could start over.”

Sunlight fell through the window onto her textbook, and the familiar countdown was written on the blackboard. The disasters that had yet to happen and the loved ones who had yet to die were all within reach. This time, Lin Yue seized the reins of fate: she would use her memories of her previous life to overcome the college entrance exam, and she would protect her family so that every regret could disappear.
Her relentless pursuit of better grades turned her from an unremarkable middle-of-the-pack student into a dark horse, but it also stirred the jealousy of Su Yao, a rich heiress. This wicked girl, who had made life difficult for Lin Yue at every turn in her previous life, once again joins forces with her companions to spread rumors and cause trouble, hoping to drag Lin Yue into the mud. At the critical moment, Chen Yu, a gentle academic star, stays by her side. He clears up misunderstandings, shares handwritten notes of key material, and helps her regain her footing with patience and encouragement. This boy, whom she had missed in her previous life because he was too timid, is now awkwardly finding the courage to get closer to her.
Shen Yi, another well-known figure at school, is also drawn to this girl, who is nothing like the rumors describe. He sees her stand firm in the face of harassment and witnesses her determination as she works to protect her family. The cool, handsome school heartthrob quietly clears obstacles for her in his own way, transforming from an onlooker into her strongest ally.
Then Lin Yue discovers that Su Yao’s father is the one who secretly destroyed her family’s business in her previous life,
