    He was aloof at first, but became incredibly clingy later. In her previous life, she mustered the courage to confess her feelings only to be rejected. Unable to win his love, she was heartbroken and in agony. How could someone love someone only to be left with unrequited affection? The regrets of her past life suddenly manifested in a second life, and she chose to be brave again. But back at school, reliving their encounters and every moment together, she was still rejected. She wanted to cry. Why was her love, rekindled, still trampled upon? It seemed no one supported her being with him. Early romance was forbidden, and neither was a poor girl like her allowed to be with a rich man like him—a vast class divide. The contrast was stark; she hadn't realized how many obstacles love faced. Her only stroke of luck was seeing her mother again—the one who gave her life, raised her, and loved her most. Even in poverty, her mother was willing to give her the best food. Life has many regrets, but love isn't one-dimensional. He demanded money from her, and her mother was called in to ask for leave. Her mother, already working hard, had to come and deal with her troubles. She felt incredibly guilty. Later, she stopped talking to him. In college, she worked hard at part-time jobs to support herself. Then, that familiar voice, that familiar person, carried her away. She felt lost. Hadn't he rejected her confession? Her bittersweet love, her unrequited affection, had actually made progress. Those days made her very happy. Aside from class, she spent all her time with him, like a happy married couple. This was the love she had dreamed of for two lifetimes. But she was also apprehensive, afraid his love was just a momentary lapse of judgment. He was so rich, she was so poor—what was there for her not to understand? She knew all too well about class differences. She was infatuated with love, yet tried to soberly detach herself. She proposed marriage to him, demanding a large dowry, which he agreed to. But later, heartbroken, she said she wanted to break up. He couldn't understand why someone could agree to marry him so quickly, only to break up just as soon as possible. Was he really going to lose her? Did she really love him?
