On the first day of her freshman year, Lin Zhixia heard a conversation between two boys in the dormitory corridor.
"You can't catch her, I bet you can't."
"What bet?"
"... Just bet."
Just bet. Not even a bet. Just take this gamble.
She was the one being bet.
Ji Xiangbei, a freshman in the Department of Finance, is confident and never explains anything.
Lin Zhixia, a freshman in the Chinese Department, looks calm and artistic, but in his heart he never admits defeat.
She knew about the bet but didn't expose it.
She wanted to see how long this person would continue to act.
But Ji Xiangbei didn't "act".
An "accidental encounter" in the cafeteria, a "coincidence" in the library, a "drop-in" to send her back to the dormitory late at night...
He never admitted that he was chasing her, and he never denied the bet.
He said: "They bet on theirs and I chase mine, which are two different things."
When the truth was revealed, everyone thought that Lin Zhixia would be angry, cry, and make trouble.
But in front of the whole class, she said the toughest words——
"I don't accept the bet, I don't accept a substitute, and I don't want to waste time.
I am not anyone's bet, my life is my own bet. "
Ji Xiangbei announced in public: The bet does not exist, believe it or not.
It was his own decision to pursue her.
From anger to sincerity, from temptation to approach.
A bet without stakes, a youth that begins with "disobedience".
"I bet I'll still like you in three years."
"I'll bet you my whole life."

You bet on the beginning, but I lost to myself.

It's well written, quite like when I was in college
I really like this subtle sense of two-way adaptability! A few chats between grandparents and grandchildren revealed the tacit understanding between the male and female protagonists. The two tough-tongued people are destined to come together. The daily atmosphere is full, and they have been deeply planted!
