[Timid, sensitive wallflower × wealthy, insecure engineering student]
(Growth-minded heroine + sweet romance + romantic rivals + everyday sweetness + campus life + city life)
Lian Shengsheng comes from a very poor family, so she studies desperately to get into college. But she has always been just an average student in everyone’s eyes.
She is insecure, timid, and sensitive, until she meets Xu Qing.
Only then does she realize that she, too, can shine.
One casual gesture of his stays with her for seven years, and she has had a crush on him for just as long.
But she never expected that Cheng Xuelin, the top-ranked student in their grade, would be Xu Qing’s one true love.
One day, Xu Qing suddenly confronts her, points at her, and calls her the instigator, a criminal.
Because of her insecurity and timidity, she becomes the scapegoat and suffers three years of retaliation.
She is the one Xu Qing takes revenge on.
One day, someone comes to her and gently tells her it isn’t her fault.
He encourages her again and again, telling her she is brave and a truly wonderful person.
She falls for him.
Only then does she realize that she isn’t the only one with an unrequited love.
“Lian Shengsheng, unrequited love never ends well. I’d advise you to focus on your studies instead,” he tells her sternly.
She falls silent and nods.
Later,
she finally understands whose side his heart is really on.
“Lian Shengsheng, would you go out with me?” A man stands on the street holding a bouquet of flowers, asking cautiously.
