In this life, she stays at both the Lu and Tan families, while the male lead rises to power and the scumbag boyfriend pursues her.

The male and female leads have misunderstandings and like each other but neither expresses their feelings. In this life, they are both reborn, and the male lead pursues her to make up for the regrets. The writing is excellent, the plot is engaging, and the side couple is also very enjoyable. Highly recommended. ③ A campus romance novel where they like each other, but the male lead's arrogance leads to the female lead's depression and suicide attempt. In this life, the female lead gives up, and the male lead pursues her. The logic is sound, and there are also scenes after the female lead's death in her past life, which are very satisfying and engaging.
