Can We Take Turns Being Reborn? [School Life]

[A teenage girl who acts sweet but is secretly calculating and controls her grades vs. a cool, aloof academic genius who has a secret crush on her]

In her previous life, she was the worst student in her grade, a notorious academic failure.

He, meanwhile, was famous far and wide, an untouchable top student who always ranked first.

The year she fell to her death, she was only seventeen.

Though they had never met, he went to the place where she fell multiple times to investigate the cause of her death.

Reborn, she wasted no time taking revenge. Her actions were swift and decisive, and he saw through her.

He stood in front of her and cleared away the obstacles in her path, asking for nothing in return.

A seed of suspicion took root, then sank deep into her heart as time passed.

She took revenge, slapped the scumbag down, and made a comeback in academic competitions to claim first place.

Ling Xingwei successfully rose from the "academic failure" who had kept her head down in her previous life to become a top student and a big shot once again.

But later...

When apricot blossoms drifted in the spring rain, Zhou Mian also drifted into eternal sleep.

She made a stunning comeback and became the top scorer in the provincial college entrance exam, basking in all the glory.

He, however, was plagued by illness and died at the age of eighteen.

Ling Xingwei thought their story had come to an end.

But she never expected...

After the rain cleared, the cycle began anew.

She heard Gu Zhoumian say to her:

"Could it be that this isn't the first time we've met?"

By then, she had already lost all her memories of her previous life.

Gu Zhoumian continued:

"Could it be that this isn't the first time we've been reborn?"

A little scene:

Someone noticed that two people who supposedly weren't close often got together to discuss academic topics.

Rumors spread in no time.

But Ling Xingwei didn't care about the rumors at all. There was just one question she couldn't let go of:

"I came back and immediately took first place in our grade from you. Aren't you angry?"

The usually stoic boy gave a rare, faint smile.

"Angry? All I know is that I've been holding this spot for you for a long time."

[The next book, Those Years of Love and Hate with the Villain, is now available! Blurb below.]

A woman born into a musical courtesan's body x a reborn heir

A clear-headed strategist who plays the fool x a dark and scheming minister who usurps the throne

-

Born into her new body, Shi Dai spent fifteen years concealing her identity, then lived in a brothel for decades, convinced she'd done an excellent job hiding who she had been born as.

But on the very first day of the story's main plot, the villain forced her to marry him and brought her back to his manor, using both threats and promises to keep her confined there.

She resisted and tested him. In the end, when he obtained an imperial decree granting their marriage, hoping to use imperial authority to trap her, she chose to play the part of a respectful and devoted couple with him.

But a play was still just a play. The world was vast, and she still chose to flee on their wedding day.

She was gone for years.

-

When they met again, she had become the Imperial Preceptor, second only to the emperor and above all others in the Great Yin Dynasty.

He had usurped power, waded through bloodshed, and ascended the throne as emperor.

By day, she was a former court official who enjoyed the emperor's favor, while he was a young new emperor who had clawed his way to the throne with a wolf's ambition. They clashed at every turn, neither willing to back down.

At night, he imprisoned her in the palace, twining her hair around his fingers as he smiled obsessively. "Imperial Preceptor, don't corner yourself."

"When we were in the Feng residence, you opposed me at every turn, Imperial Preceptor... Since you were so loyal to the late emperor, do you still remember our unfinished engagement?"

"If you won't join my faction, then join my harem."

-

On their wedding night, the palace servants and eunuchs all saw the young emperor shut out by Shi Dai.

Everyone was terrified, expecting the young emperor to fly into a rage and have Shi Dai beheaded in public. Instead, Feng Jun stayed the night with her every night and asked her every day:

"I can let them leave, but you have to stay."

"A Dai, you promised me this in our previous life."

Shi Dai only shook her head. "Feng Jun, stop clinging to your delusion. The person from your previous life wasn't me."

"It was you, Shi Dai. I've lived life after life waiting for the real you to return."
