[The childhood friend next door is the "baby" from a runaway-with-the-baby plot!]
After suddenly dying and transmigrating, workaholic Yi Changhuan decided she'd take it easy in this life.
Who could have guessed that when she was three, a new family would move in next door?
Wait, that new neighbor's name... sounded kind of familiar.
Wasn't she the female lead from that hit TV drama in her previous life, the one who ran away with the baby?
As it turned out, the female lead's baby had already been born, and was around the same age as her.
And so the name Chu Zian began popping up from time to time, as the child next door everyone in the neighborhood talked about.
Yi Changhuan: ...
No way. She couldn't let this slide.
She'd been reborn for a whole new life. How could she lose to a little kid?
And so the stubborn Yi Changhuan began competing with Chu Zian.
From learning to read and do arithmetic in kindergarten, to academic competitions and top exam scores in middle and high school, and later, fighting over spots in academic journals...
But becoming a genius wasn't easy, and even the advantages of being reborn could run out. To win this battle between geniuses, Yi Changhuan threw herself back into the grind.
Chu Zian, who should have gone back to inherit the family business, was also dragged by Yi Changhuan into this "bloody" battle of wits.
Years later, the two of them, both Nobel laureates, were asked why they had chosen careers in scientific research.
Yi Changhuan looked frustrated. "At first, I just didn't want to lose to that guy Xu Zian."
Who could have guessed that he would be so insanely driven, pushing her all the way to this level?
She didn't want to lose, so she had no choice but to work herself to the bone alongside him.
Chu Zian looked helpless. "I just thought... this was the only way to keep her looking at me."
You know how it is. I want to talk romance with my wife, but all she can think about is beating me. What can I do? I have to keep up with her.
