Tong Yaoyao had long since left the pink ivory tower behind and joined the workforce as an ordinary young woman.
She wasn't clever. At school, she'd always been about average, and her career carried on in much the same vein.
She wasn't pretty, but she wasn't ugly either. Better than some, worse than others: that summed up the first half of her life.
Every day passed in peaceful routine. Once in a while, she'd make a careless mistake and get scolded by her boss. After a few diligent days, things would go back to normal.
The passion and dreams she'd had as a student had been diluted by the realities of everyday life. Only in a hazy dream could she catch a faint glimpse of them.
Tong Yaoyao drifted aimlessly through three or four years. Then one day, on her way to a blind date at her mother's insistence, she looked at her unfamiliar face in the taxi's rearview mirror.
The same old office skirt suit, long coffee-brown hair in big waves, a face covered with all kinds of foundation, perfectly shaped eyebrows, winged eyeliner, thick eyelashes, and warm orange lipstick.
Tong Yaoyao looked down at the heels on her feet and suddenly missed the carefree days when she could go bare-faced, toss her ponytail, and get by with a few pairs of canvas shoes.
But even if she missed those days, they couldn't just reset her and start her over!
And what was with dumping her into this two-dimensional world where eyes took up two-thirds of everyone's face?
She was already twenty-something, for crying out loud, not a little girl anymore. Was it really a good idea to make her show off her intelligence like this???
Dedicated to the youth we will all one day leave behind. From the author, both literary and goofy.
The author suddenly remembered her own awkward younger days, and all the handsome boys from The Prince of Tennis she'd been crazy about. She still watched anime sometimes, but she could never feel the way she had back then. Ryoma had always been her favorite in The Prince of Tennis. Though she'd written fanfiction for the series, by some twist of fate he hadn't even made it into the top two male characters. So this story is meant to make up for that regret. Ryoma will definitely be the male lead, but he may not end up paired with the heroine. In other words, this story may not have a romance. It's mainly about everyday life.

I'm easy to keep, so please take me in
So moving to a community means no internet, no internet for four years! ! ! !
Does the author Yin like braids so much? But I feel like it seems a bit incongruous to have a mixed race guy with blond hair in braids...
It's been a long time since we moved, but we haven't moved yet? Been waiting for a long time
The weather is getting warmer. The author should update it soon. I finally found an article about the dragon and horse hero.
When will the author install the network cable? The elevator in the community will always be labeled with how much money it costs for a year or two.
Dear, Happy New Year, please keep updating!
Come on o(∩_∩)o Come on!
It's not reasonable. Even if it's a domestic flight, airport staff will always take children without an adult to get on and off the plane, let alone an international flight? How could a child be allowed to carry his luggage out by himself?
In addition, the appearance of the heroine has just been described in the previous chapter, and it is repeated again in this chapter. It is too repetitive.
Very good, good luck to the author
Hmm, for Tomoka and Sakurano, I think they are too precocious, how about Saikuni! Although age is not a problem, and this is common, privately I still think it is better not to have CP at this stage. . . Yaoyao is older at heart, but Longma is also immature. . .
