[Gorgeous, unhinged problem girl × gloomy, obsessive top student]
[One-on-one romance, both leads devoted only to each other, reborn for revenge, secret identities, school and city life, slow burn, everyday moments, friendship, personal growth]
[The heroine goes from people-pleaser to people-confronter] [The second male lead becomes the hero: a secret crush in both lives finally comes true]
Su Luning spent her whole life trying to please everyone.
Only on the brink of death did she realize they weren't worth it.
Reborn, why should she keep being a pushover? She'd send them all flying!
The only time she rebelled in her past life was when she ignored her mother's advice to stay away from that scumbag.
Then something happened to her mother, and she got caught up in it too.
Back in her second year of high school, she runs into her fake best friend again. How exciting! Send her flying!
To stay away from the scumbag and the bitch, she hurries to change seats.
She never expects her new deskmate to be Gu Chenjue, the devastatingly handsome problem student rumored to be “cruel and taciturn.”
And there are two familiar faces in front of her: her icy former best friend and the chatterbox who's her new best friend.
Heaven must think her life isn't messy enough, because now a flashy transfer student who knows her from the past shows up too.
As their fates intertwine, the regrets and conspiracies of her past life gradually come to light.

Su Luning cuddles Gu Chenjue, whom she impulsively “sugar-daddied” because he was so good-looking, and spends every night in a delightfully shameless, heavily censored romance.
Until one day, he suddenly drops the act. He offers her the entire fortune of the Gu family, the richest in Jing City, as a bride price, and presses her to marry him.
Gu Chenjue grips her waist. “Kui Kui, give me a place in your life. Don't make me... beg you.”
Without a second thought, Su Luning runs for it!
What kind of joke is this? Weren't they supposed to have agreed that she was the one in control?!
She wants to be on top.
