The Aloof Top Student Is Marinated in the Scent of Gardenias

One summer day in July, when the gardenias were in bloom, she skipped into the young man’s gaze with a book in her arms, planting a beam of light in his heart.

She was the school beauty everyone in Nanjiang admired. To her classmates, she was cheerful and optimistic. But when no one was looking, a careless joke could keep her awake all night. She always dealt with her negative emotions alone, deep into the night.

To his classmates, he was an aloof academic genius who was hard to get along with. What they didn’t know was that this cool and distant genius gave her his one and only special affection.

She wanted to go to Nanjing and see the plane trees growing wild. When he found out, he made a promise to himself: “Wait for me. I’ll go see the plane trees with you.”
