[Reborn + proactive, sunny heiress + gloomy, possessive hero + both leads’ first love + elite school]
In her previous life, Liao Qingyao, the young lady of the Liao family, died the day before her wedding after her cousin and stepsister joined forces to push her off a high-rise.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to her senior year of high school, still the cherished daughter of the Liao family, the number-one conglomerate in the capital.
But why was the man she’d almost married now in the same class as her?!
When she was down and out in her previous life, he had crouched in front of her on one knee and said, “Come home with me.”
Now he was bristling with hostility. Because of rumors based on hearsay, nobody at school dared approach him, and he treated her like she was invisible.
Liao Qingyao smiled. He used to love clinging to her, so why pretend? He was going to be her husband sooner or later.
The sooner, the better.
“Zhou Jinye, you’re really handsome.”
The boy looked up coldly. “Get lost.”
She leaned closer and grinned. “Get lost? Into your arms?”
The whole class gasped. Why would the heiress be interested in that poor boy?
But no one knew that Liao Qingyao had returned not just to claim him.
She wouldn’t let her cousin’s schemes, her stepsister’s hypocrisy, or the truth behind the Liao family’s downfall go unanswered.
As for Zhou Jinye, you protected me once in my last life. This time, let me spoil you.
“Gloomy deskmate, come here and get kissed.”
His ears turned crimson, and his voice went hoarse. “...Shut up.”
Liao Qingyao raised an eyebrow. Once she had him, how far away could winning his heart be?
Note: This story is more on the heartwarming side, with little scheming. It’s a sweet, slice-of-life romance.
Very well written
