Young Lady x Bookworm
Radiant peacock beauty vs. gloomy, cold-faced hottie
She pursues him, openly crushes on him, then gives up halfway when she runs out of ideas.
Everyone at Jiangwu No. 1 High knows that Class 18, the school’s worst class, has a transfer student who got in through connections. Her name is Xu Jiahe, and she’s an art student.
For some reason, Xu Jiahe took a liking to Jiang Yu’an, the top student in their grade, and began pursuing him relentlessly.
“Jiang Yu’an, feel like holding hands today?”
“...”
“Jiang Yu’an, if I kissed you right now, would you kiss me back?”
“...”
“Jiang Yu’an, if I had someone tie you up and bring you to my house, would you agree to be my boyfriend?”
Jiang Yu’an didn’t even raise his eyes. “I’d call the police,” he said coldly.
After half a year of declaring her love, Xu Jiahe had seen not the slightest sign that Jiang Yu’an was interested. She finally gave up and switched to pursuing Fang Chen, the grade’s second-best student.
One day, while Fang Chen was explaining a problem to Xu Jiahe, Jiang Yu’an called her outside and took her to the stairwell, where he grabbed her wrist.
“Xu Jiahe, do you only have a three-minute attention span when you pursue someone? Hmm?”
Xu Jiahe was baffled. Did half a year count as three minutes?
“I get better grades than him. I’ll help you study.”
After that, thanks to Jiang Yu’an’s tireless efforts, Xu Jiahe’s grades were dragged up from the bottom of the class.
After they submitted their college applications, the two made plans to study in the same city. But then Xu Jiahe suddenly vanished from everyone’s sight.
Years later, Xu Jiahe returned to Jiangwu for a friend’s wedding. On the same flight, she spotted Jiang Yu’an...
They exchanged a glance, then calmly sat down in their respective seats.
After the wedding banquet, snow suddenly began to fall. The car Xu Jiahe had called was stuck in traffic and couldn’t get to her. She stood by the road waiting in the snow, her hands and face red, her legs shivering from the cold.
Suddenly, warmth settled over her.
“Put this on. Don’t catch a chill.”
