Blurb:
Lu Yunxiao is a celebrated figure at Wencheng No. 1 High School. He gets excellent grades and has a handsome face, so he attracts attention wherever he goes.
Shen Tang is the most unremarkable well-behaved student at Wencheng No. 1 High School. She always wears glasses that hide her looks, and nobody remembers her for anything but her grades.
The two had nothing to do with each other until the day Shen Tang was cornered on the rooftop by a new transfer student, a tough girl. A brash, carefree voice rang out above them.
"You're so noisy. Get lost, all of you."
The bullies scattered in fright. Shen Tang looked up and saw Lu Yunxiao sitting with the light behind him.
At sixteen, the boy was bold and dazzling.
Two lines that should never have crossed began to meet in the breeze on the rooftop.
-
Lu Yunxiao happened to save a well-behaved student who was being bullied at school, and from then on he had a timid little follower by his side.
"Lu Yunxiao, do you want milk tea?"
"Lu Yunxiao, do you want cake?"
"Lu Yunxiao, do I like chocolate?"
"Lu Yunxiao..."
Lu Yunxiao turned her down again and again, yet helped her again and again, reaching out to pull her up each time.
Without realizing it, the two people who'd once had nothing to do with each other became best friends. As they spent more time together, their feelings changed into something else.
-
Shen Tang's life seemed like a perfectly straight line: ordinary days at school and ordinary exams.
Then that line took a turn. A tough girl cornered her on the rooftop, and she suffered something she had thought was far removed from her life... bullying at school.
But Lu Yunxiao came that day. Standing against the light, he seemed like a heavenly savior, driving off the attackers and rescuing her from harm.
She was grateful and wanted to repay him.
But the young master of the Lu family had everything, so all she could do was follow awkwardly behind him and try to find a way to repay him.
But her gratitude slowly changed into something else.
She saw the pink envelope on Lu Yunxiao's desk and started to panic. When she saw another girl handing him milk tea, her eyes instantly reddened...
Just as she was about to slink away, a well-defined hand took the milk tea she'd been unable to give him.
She looked up in surprise and saw Lu Yunxiao say to the girl who'd brought the drink, "Sorry, someone already brought me milk tea."
Reading guide:
Bold, unruly top dog x introverted, well-behaved girl
Both are each other's first love, both are sexually inexperienced. The setting uses the old system of dividing high school students into arts and science tracks; I'm not very familiar with the new system.
I personally prefer the male lead to fall for the female lead first. There's a time gap between secretly falling for someone and realizing it, so be warned. They will separate in the middle. Expect a bittersweet, melodramatic romance.
The story includes school bullying. Please take note, and if you expect characters to be perfect, this may not be for you.

Contemporary romance pre-order, Quietly Falling for You:
The local school forum in Jiangcheng held a poll to choose the most beautiful girl among the city's high schools. In the end, Shen Zhiwei from No. 2 High School won.
Everyone was talking about it, and the group chats of high schools across Jiangcheng were full of heated arguments.
Someone brought it up to Jiang Wenchen and asked if Shen Zhiwei deserved to be called the most beautiful girl.
Jiang Wenchen gave them a cold glance. "She does."
-
The year Shen's father died in the line of duty, it was her older neighbor who stayed by Shen Zhiwei's side.
From then on, she followed him everywhere. They were so close that... she couldn't bear to reveal the feelings she kept hidden in her heart.
Later, when the start of school was delayed, she and Jiang Wenchen faced each other through their open windows.
Shen Zhiwei asked, "Can you be more than just the older boy next door?"
Jiang Wenchen answered without hesitation. "Yes."
-
Later, they went their separate ways. Things turned ugly, and neither of them could save face.
After that, neither dared to be the first to turn back.
During an interview, a reporter asked Jiang Wenchen about his love life.
Jiang Wenchen looked at Shen Zhiwei in the crowd.
"There's someone I like."
"When I was seventeen, I could see you every time I opened my window."

Damn it, there is no need to beat the heroine so hard, and the second place, this is the seedling of 985, 211, the teacher's favorite, the focus of attention, right?
Oh my god, in reality, many milk tea shops have bad attitudes. I didn't have a mobile phone when I was in high school. I always paid with cash. The shop assistants also looked very disgusted. When they gave me change, they always played tricks. Several coins fell on the ground. I never went to that shop again.
Mom should be that kind of Chinese parent, hahaha. She doesn't speak well. If any conflict happens to her child, she will first look for problems from the child. She always wonders if the child is lying, but she is very good to the child in many ways, hahahahaha.
I hate people who just open their mouths like this. They are obviously girls, but they insist on thinking like that about other girls. . .
It really seems like a reflection of my psychology when my mother found out that I was being bullied and had to find a school to go to. Hahaha, I was panicking to death at the time.
Very nice. Come on.
Ah ah ah ah, let me fall in love quickly
Are these parents biological?
Happy New Year and good luck
