Now That I’m Reborn, Who’s Waiting for Their Childhood Friend to Grow Up?

[Reborn] [Dumping Her Childhood Friend] [Coming-of-Age Host] [Photographer Male Lead] [Sweet Campus Romance]

Shen Zhiyi loved He Jingchuan for ten whole years.

She stood by him through the college entrance exams, helped him start a business, and stayed with him through his hardest times. Everyone thought they were bound to end up together.

Until, at twenty-eight, He Jingchuan took his company public and got engaged to his first love in front of everyone. Then he smiled and introduced Shen Zhiyi:

"Zhiyi is just like my little sister."

Ten years of youth, dismissed with one word: sister.

When Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes again, she was eighteen, on the day after the college entrance exams.

A message from He Jingchuan was on her phone:

"Go pick up Su Nian at the airport tonight for me."

In her previous life, she'd missed her first hosting audition because she'd gone to pick up Su Nian.

This time, she replied with just two words:

"I'm busy."

Then she turned and rushed into the TV station.

Hosting competitions, campus social media accounts, graduation portraits, university performances...

She would reclaim every part of the life she'd once given up, again and again.

She just hadn't expected to run into Zhou Yan along the way, a sharp-tongued, difficult young photographer.

The first time they met, he turned her down coldly:

"I don't shoot personal promotional videos."

Later, though, he was the one who kept pointing his camera at her.

"Shen Zhiyi, stop acting."

"When you really love something, you look better than when you're forcing a smile."

Before long, the whole school was shipping them.

But they both said in unison:

"We're just business partners."

Until one day, someone seriously pursued Shen Zhiyi.

Zhou Yan finally couldn't sit still.

"Business partners can't date."

Shen Zhiyi raised an eyebrow:

"The agreement never said I couldn't date someone else."
