[Fake playboy school bully on top x aloof, refined, innocent young master on the bottom]
Reborn + White Moonlight + High School
Blurb:
Ning Weian, the young master of the Ning family, was a celebrated top student at Yunya High School. He had handsome, refined features, and the corners of his eyes were always faintly red, with a tiny red beauty mark. His expression was always cool, and everyone thought he was hard to approach.
Even Jiang Biechen, Yunya's famous school bully, who teased every pretty boy in school, had never laid a finger on Ning Weian. Instead, whenever he saw him, he would turn and flee as far away as possible.
Rumors claimed that the dashing Jiang Biechen had charmed his way through every flower in the garden, but refused to play that game with the aloof beauty. Others said the two had fallen out years ago and would never speak to each other again.
Only Jiang Biechen knew the truth. He had fallen in love with the young master at first sight, on the very first day of school, during the opening ceremony.
He spent two years abroad as an exchange student, holding back from asking after his white moonlight. At last, when graduation rolled around, Jiang Biechen hurried back to China with roses and a love letter tucked in his arms. He searched everywhere, but couldn't find him.
"You mean Ning Weian? He died of poisoning a few months ago. Apparently, one of the competitors of his family's company deliberately poisoned him. What a shame... It was a pretty big scandal, didn't you hear?"
"What did you say?"

After a car accident, Jiang Biechen felt no pain. All he could see was the memories of the past decade rushing before his eyes, like scenes from a film. The good, the bad... Most of the things he couldn't let go of had to do with Ning Weian.
He had finally worked up the courage. How could Ning Weian be dead?
*
When he opened his eyes again, the sunlight was blinding. His body was stiff and aching all over. After taking a moment to recover, he sat up from the ground. There was no blood anywhere, just dirt all over him, and... a few blades of foxtail grass.
He wasn't dead?!
He was just about to look around when his good friend Zhang Siyang came running toward him with two schoolbags. As he ran, he shouted, "Damn it, Brother Jiang, why the hell are you sleeping in the doghouse again? What kind of weird hobby is that?"
"Get up! You're about to start high school. You really need to rein in that attitude of yours."
Jiang Biechen was stunned. "High school... I'm going to high school?"
"Yeah." Zhang Siyang smacked him on the head. "Did you sleep yourself stupid or something?"
*
It was the same opening ceremony, on the same day he remembered so clearly. Ning Weian had entered Yunya High School as the top student in the entire school and had been chosen to speak as the school's outstanding student representative. The scene that had played out in Jiang Biechen's mind countless times unfolded once more. His heart began pounding wildly. The moment Ning Weian finished speaking and stepped down from the stage, Jiang Biechen hurriedly slipped away and chased after him.
"You're alive. I'm so glad."
Ning Weian furrowed his brows, unsure what this man was trying to pull. Jiang Biechen could only gasp for breath. A few seconds later, his legs gave way and he nearly collapsed to the ground.
Ning Weian bent down just in time and grabbed him. Their faces suddenly drew close. Seeing Ning Weian blush, Jiang Biechen only smiled, but gripped his wrist tightly, so hard that his knuckles turned white.
"I like you. I've liked you for a long time." -- Written on May 25, 2024
