[Radiant, Lively Sunshine Girl VS Tsundere, Brooding, Refined Scion]
[Looks like an older woman-younger man romance (the heroine is older in mindset), but is really mutual salvation and rekindled love.] | [One-on-one romance + both leads are chaste + cohabitation]
After an accident on a stormy night, 26-year-old Jing Shu unexpectedly returns to the height of summer six years earlier.
She becomes a transfer student at Xicheng Middle School, with no one to turn to and every clue pointing toward a way home.
They all lead to a gloomy-eyed boy, brought back into a wealthy family but unable to fit in.
He is the Jiang family’s long-lost real son, yet his mother despises him for the traces of his rural upbringing before the age of six.
Sharp-tongued and aloof, he has an almost obsessive possessiveness and hides the scars within him beneath a refined exterior.
She thinks she is carefully planning each step just to find her way home, unaware that two lonely hearts have already begun to draw close.
When the storm returns, Jing Shu cruelly pushes him away and says the words she least means: “Jiang Yunzong, I’ve never liked you.”
Then she vanishes from his world without a trace.
She wakes up six years later, and fate brings them together again. She becomes his new assistant.
He is Professor Jiang, lofty and composed.
He pretends not to know her, yet his gaze follows her everywhere. When she gets even the slightest injury, he loses his composure.
The weather forecast says, “Localized downpours tonight.” He thinks she’s about to disappear again.
He grabs her wrist, unable to control himself, six years of obsession and madness burning in his eyes:
“Where are you trying to run off to tonight?”
