Back to High School With My Boyfriend's Brother

After six years of working herself to the bone, Xia Ling finally died from overwork on the night she got promoted and received a raise.

When she woke up, she was back at seventeen, homeless and penniless.

Xia Ling swore under her breath. With her last hope, she used her last two yuan to take a bus to her future boyfriend's house.

.

Xia Ling's boyfriend was a rich second-generation kid, two years younger than her. He always said they were fated to be together, and that if he'd met her earlier, he would definitely have rescued her from her miserable life.

Twenty-eight-year-old Xia Ling had never believed him. But at seventeen, desperate to escape her circumstances, she decided to try anything, even a last-ditch gamble.

She wasn't planning to make a move on a fifteen-year-old, but surely it wasn't too much to borrow some money from him, given that they were "destined" to be together.

When she arrived at her boyfriend's address, the old-fashioned European villa she remembered still had a fresh coat of paint.

Then she turned and saw a face both familiar and strange.

The boy was tall and handsome, with features somewhat like her young boyfriend's.

Before Xia Ling could feel happy, she saw the boy narrow his eyes, a hint of confusion in his detached gaze.

After a while, she heard him ask, "Are you A-Yao's girlfriend?"

Xia Ling: "..."

Oh no, what do I do if I traveled back to high school with my boyfriend's older brother?!
