[Fake Little Sun, Actually Avoidant vs. Truly Dark, Male-Obsessed] [Mutual Healing + Both Pure + Happy Ending + Bittersweet Romance] Song Yi, who had barely made it into a prestigious high school, suddenly got a System and learned that she had only seven years left to live.
The System told her she was a disposable side character in a campus romance novel.
If she wanted to change her fate, the first thing she had to do was stop the sickly villain before he turned evil.
Since the villain had already gone dark by the time the original story began, only she, a side character who had theoretically attended the same school as him all along, had a chance of doing this.
She wasn't very interested at first, but the System promised to grant her a wish in return.
She thought about her terrible grades and agreed.
After his mother died, Shen Yu had almost lost all connection to the world.
He used to study hard, hoping to give his mother a better life, and could put up with the bullying.
But now, those people were even going to destroy his last remaining hope.
Mom, you lied. Good people only get bullied.
Just as all hope seemed lost, a girl descended like a goddess and pulled him out of the abyss.
At the time, he didn't dare trust anyone, so he asked her why she had saved him.
She smiled. "Because I like you."
He said, "Liar."
Later, Song Yi regretted telling that lie countless times.
When she realized that even after the real heroine appeared, he had taken her lie for the truth and told her he would accept her confession, she panicked. "I don't like you."
Shen Yu smiled and held her hand so she couldn't pull away. "Liar."
"I really was lying!"
"That's okay. A lie can be love, and as it happens, I love you too, don't I?"
