[Reborn + Sweet Romance + Girl Pursues Boy + Campus + No System]
[Bright, bold heroine determined to take life easy vs. seemingly aloof but actually pure-hearted puppy-like hero]
In her previous life, Xu Xingwan was famous for being a perennial singleton and a relentless overachiever.
She worked her way through graduate and doctoral studies before landing a job at a major tech company. At 28, she had a successful career, but also hormonal problems and an endless barrage of pressure to get married.
Exhausted in body and mind, she went to a bar to drown her sorrows. In a fit of anger, she kissed the handsome, aloof, self-restrained CEO at the next table.
Who could have guessed that after one wild night, she’d open her eyes to find herself reborn in a university classroom at nineteen?
Looking at her thick hair and pale skin, Xu Xingwan promptly closed her textbook.
I’m not grinding away this time. I’m going to enjoy my youth and fall in love!
So Xu Xingwan turned her attention to the future business tycoon and aloof campus heartthrob sitting in the back row, still just a fresh-faced college student: Jin Yanci.
Remembering the wild night they’d shared in her previous life, she decided to make the first move.
She brought him milk tea, fluttered her lashes, and engineered chance encounters, chasing after Jin Yanci every day.
“Classmate Jin, you’ve got great abs. Can I feel them?”
“Classmate Jin, do you like me?”
Everyone thought Xu Xingwan was setting herself up for humiliation.
After all, Jin Yanci was aloof and refined, and never showed any interest in women.
Until someone witnessed the usually untouchable man pin her against a bookshelf, his eyes reddened and his voice strained with possessiveness:
“Why didn’t you come see me today?”
“You’re the one who came after me first.”
“Now you want to run? Too late.”
What Xu Xingwan didn’t know was this:
This seemingly cold man had secretly been in love with her for a long time.
