(Campus Romance + Reunion After a Brief Separation + Mutual Devotion + Healing and Redemption)
[Resilient, Reserved Top Student x Arrogant, Flashy Rich Boy]
Jiang Nuo, from the worst middle school in the city, made it into the top class at No. 2 High School, where she met Pei Chuci, the school's most powerful student with connections.
His father was a Party secretary, his mother a bureau chief, and he was adored by everyone.
But Jiang Nuo couldn't stand boys who got in through the back door!
So why was he always teasing her...?
And then he said he liked her? Fine, he liked her, but couldn't he keep it to himself? Why did the whole internet have to know?
But why was he always just a short distance away whenever she looked back during her hardest moments?
The summer she turned eighteen, she went to Beijing, while he went abroad to study.
The following summer, at nineteen, Jiang Nuo met him again. Though he should have been far away in Los Angeles, he smiled and said, "Please look after me, senior."
The world was wide open, and he wanted her to soar.
He wanted to become a tree with a lush canopy, so she could find a place to rest beneath it, no matter how far she roamed.
Still not far enough? No problem. This tree can move on its own.
Academic journey:
Jiang Nuo got into the best high school from the worst middle school in the city. (Applause, applause, applause!) And somehow she was near the bottom of the class? Don't panic! This is Jiang Nuo we're talking about!
Well, Jiang Nuo is just Jiang Nuo. She's got a little talent, but not much.
She sneaks a look at her grades late at night and quietly cries, then gets out her papers and keeps working!
People mock her for joining the math competition class? Of course she'll show them all!
Well, she didn't even make it onto the provincial team. Never mind, there's still her regular coursework!
Breaking through a bottleneck in her regular studies is so hard. Sob.
What? You're telling me the third-place science-track student in Yining City's college entrance exam was named Jiang Nuo?
