My Stepmother's Daughter Is My Ex-Girlfriend

Blurb One: After finally making it through three grueling years of studying, He Jinyu triumphantly entered her dream university. Just as she was about to pull out her bucket list and go wild, a face as beautiful as a painting came along like a bridle, firmly reining in her heart, which had been ready to gallop off. He Jinyu immediately crossed out the first item on her list, "Find a boyfriend," and replaced it with "Win Shen Yuxi's heart."

Shen Yuxi (helplessly): Junior, I'm straight.

He Jinyu: I don't believe you. Let me cuddle up to you~ Oh, Senior, you're blushing~

Shen "Old-Fashioned" Yuxi (blushing): Ahem. Don't be silly.

But their happiness didn't last long. Once they finally got together, they realized that love wasn't as simple as they'd imagined. Their vastly different family backgrounds left them both hurt by each other's prejudice, and in the end, they chose to end the relationship that had been causing them both so much pain.

Just as He Jinyu swore through her tears that she'd never see Shen Yuxi again, her father suddenly brought her face-to-face with Shen Yuxi and cheerfully said, "Xiaoyu, come meet your big sister Shen."

He Jinyu: ??

Are you kidding me?

Blurb Two: When Shen Yuxi heard that her mother planned to remarry, she was delighted for her. All these years, she had seen how hard it was for her mother to raise her alone.

But when she learned that the other person had the surname He and also had a daughter, her heart sank, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

After spending several days feeling uneasy, Uncle He brought her to meet He Jinyu. Seeing He Jinyu's stunned, speechless expression, Shen Yuxi instead felt a wave of relief. She held out a hand and said, "Hello, Junior. Long time no see."

Shen Yuxi had faced life's hardships from a young age and had long since learned to accept the jokes fate played on her.

It wasn't until much later that she realized this time it wasn't fate playing a trick on her, but the best gift Heaven could give her.

A proud, willful heiress with a strong possessive streak x a cool, stubborn, old-fashioned beauty on a high peak.

Campus romance in the first half, entertainment industry in the second half.

Theme: Grow through love, cast off prejudice, and stand beside a better version of yourself.
