Strong Liquor Down the Throat

[Suspenseful romance, solving cases while falling in love.]

A new recruit with an air of noble refinement arrives at the department. He looks like he has plenty of money.

So Zhou Ye, the dirt-poor captain of the criminal investigation team, asks, “Hey, got any money? Lend me a little so I can get something to eat.”

Rong Zhao replies coolly, “I'm broke.”

Zhou Ye clutches his chest, devastated. “Good heavens, you're so cruel. You're really so cruel.”

Rong Zhao: “...” What a weirdo.

At last, unable to take any more of it, he pulls out fifty yuan and gives it to him.

Rong Zhao uses his remaining five yuan to buy a few steamed buns.

Then he sees the man who asked to borrow money walk into a luxurious restaurant...

Later, according to Zhou Ye's explanation: “Here's what happened. Six years ago, on a stormy night, my obscenely wealthy family forced me to marry a woman. I refused and publicly came out, so they kicked me out of the house.”

Rong Zhao punches him. “Keep making things up.”

Zhou Ye: “...” Why does nobody believe the truth?

Blurb:

After being reborn, Ye Han returns to the age of sixteen.

He is bound to a System called Knowledge Changes Your Fate.

“Ding! Your task this time is to rank first in your grade on the midterm exam.”

To complete the task, he desperately tries to get close to the genius top student Lin Yan: bringing him breakfast, waiting for him after school, handing him water at the basketball court, and asking him to tutor him.

Later, Lin Yan corners Ye Han by the school's back gate and asks with a stern expression, “Why haven't you come looking for me these past few days?”

Ye Han: “I've already ranked first in the grade. Thank you for all your help.”

Lin Yan gives a cold laugh, and from then on, Ye Han never manages to rank first again.

Lin Yan: “Want to come first, sweetheart? Then please me.”
