A light, sweet campus romance | My Online Confidant Turned Out to Be the Person I Was Complaining About

As an utterly ordinary student in Class Three, seventeen-year-old Ji Yumian always tried to be considerate.

When whispering in class, she did her best not to disturb the teacher.

When copying homework, she deliberately got a few answers wrong so her classmates wouldn't feel awkward.

But no one could have guessed that one day, the top student in her grade, a boy she barely knew, would confess to her with a beautiful sunset behind him.

Ji Yumian was stunned. She blurted out that she liked someone else, then fled in a panic.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ting stared at the message she had sent:

"That stuck-up grade topper just confessed to me! But... even though we've never met, you're actually the person I like."

And fell into deep thought.

She had no idea that he was the online friend she'd never met, or that he was the grade topper she thought was such a show-off.

Reading Guide

1. No secret crushes, just falling in love over time.

2. Both are each other's first, happy ending, ensemble cast elements.

3. No crossing the line before they come of age. It's all in the name of studying hard, haha.

4. Not a literary style. The heroine says whatever she wants.

5. A lighthearted school-life story. The author aims for realism: they won't both get into top universities. What's wrong with being a bad student? You can go to an ordinary school and still have a wonderful life. :)

6. [Important] This is a sweet romance where feelings matter more than logic. Don't overanalyze it.

Theme: Think before you speak and act.
