After Being Reborn, the Top Science Student Is Pursuing Me Again

Beginner writer. Read with caution. Blurb: Gu Huan is reborn, back in the semester of his first year of high school, just as the students are about to be divided into arts and sciences classes. In his previous life, Yucheng No. 1 High School had two students who had never been dethroned from the top spot in their respective tracks. Everyone in their year knew that the science genius who sat with Gu Huan before the class split liked him. But in Gu Huan's eyes, his deskmate's constant probing and suggestive remarks were all just: We're good buddies! If you have something to say, tell me! Duan Jing pursued him without success, and they lost touch after college. Years into their careers, Gu Huan received a bizarre bit of gossip claiming that Duan Jing had found a boyfriend, and that it wasn't him. He didn't dare check if it was true, blindly believed it, and, despite never being able to hold his liquor, drank himself sick in a bar. Gu Huan (weeping drunkenly): Damn it, why? When he opened his eyes again, he saw a strange yet familiar white wall and felt the rough wooden desk beneath his arm. The brand-new Nokia 5230 in his school uniform's chest pocket confirmed that he had returned to the age of sixteen. Gu Huan fished a little mirror out of Duan Jing's desk drawer, looked at himself, then at the handsome young face beside him, and resolved to seize this heaven-sent opportunity. “Babe, how many minutes until class is over?” Duan Jing woke at the noise and immediately started with his suggestive remarks. !!! Gu Huan suppressed his excitement and, just like before, pinched him under the desk. “Move over.” Sweet~ A proud, aloof beauty who is secretly tsundere x A straight-laced science nerd who thinks he's romantic Campus story, happy ending.
