   This is a campus romance novel with a lot of angst. I highly recommend it! There are no misunderstandings, no melodramatic plot twists. The male lead has a heart condition and is hit by a car. His heart condition relapses, and he dies before he can receive treatment. The female lead is also in a car accident that day. Everyone around the male lead keeps it a secret from the female lead, who only finds out in her sophomore year.

    Reader note

    Looking for a story similar to "I Only Sneaked a Glance at Him"—a tale of unrequited love/school tragedy? This realistic coming-of-age novel will hit you right in the face—the protagonist, Jiang Xin, was a top student in elementary school, framed as a "bottom-of-the-class student" in middle school, wasted his youth in high school missing out on his childhood sweetheart, drifted aimlessly through university, and remains on the fringes of society. There's no thrilling comeback, only heart-wrenching regret and inferiority. The unrequited love story ends tragically, but it's more poignant than sweet romance; the writing is restrained and delicate, without excessive exclamation marks or sentimentality, like slowly boiling a frog in water—you'll find yourself with tears welling up as you read. Suitable for readers who want to experience "youthful pain" and can handle realistic tearjerker moments. Forget about domineering CEOs, come and accompany Jiang Xin through this bumpy journey of youth—his regrets might be yours too.
