[Vibrant, wicked young heiress x impoverished, insecure genius boy]
Synopsis:
Ji Shaoyi transmigrates into a book as the villainous rich girl supporting character.
As a villainess, she's rich and beautiful.
The System tells her: Your main mission is to bully the male lead mercilessly and help him grow.
Ji Shaoyi nods. That sounds easy.
Bullying people is what she's best at.
Ji Shaoyi turns her attention to the male lead, Shen Chengzhi, who's still a poor boy.
A spotless white shirt, a faint scent of soap, a tall, slender frame, and that... handsome, indifferent face.
She stares at his face for a long time, and starts getting ideas.
Shen Chengzhi works after class to earn money, so Ji Shaoyi goes to his workplace and waits for him, then walks home with him.
When people give him a hard time, Ji Shaoyi steps in and helps him out.
When someone deliberately makes things difficult for him and gets him fired, Ji Shaoyi gives him her home address, claiming she needs him to tutor her.
Shen Chengzhi notices her "kindness," but always remains cool and distant.
Every time, he only says a polite, detached, "Thank you."
Ji Shaoyi is upset. He feels like a block of ice that will never warm up.
Until one day, the System gives her God's-eye view.
From God's-eye view, she sees that after every tutoring session, Shen Chengzhi writes down the topics she doesn't understand and patiently organizes notes for her.
After coolly accepting her gifts, he goes home and carefully treasures them.
On countless nights, he stares at a photo of her from behind on his phone.
And... in the drawer of the boy's wooden desk is a box containing a thick stack of hundred-yuan bills.
Later, that money becomes a beautiful gift. He holds the gift box and carefully offers it to her, awkwardly saying,
"A birthday present for you."
He falls for her, but Ji Shaoyi seems to have grown bored of the game.
She takes his gift, then lets go. It falls to the ground, and the exquisite hairpin breaks in two.
The girl's cold voice follows.
"This game ends here."
"Shen Chengzhi, I have someone I'm engaged to."
He can't remember what happened after that. He only remembers that the road home was especially hard to walk.
That day, he couldn't tell whether the water on his face was rain or tears.
And he doesn't know that, after he left, she went back to pick up the hairpin.
After graduation, Shen Chengzhi returns from studying abroad on a government scholarship. He gives up the chance to build a career overseas and comes home.
He founds a company and wins bidding contests one after another.
Until, at one bid, he hears the familiar yet unfamiliar voice of the girl.
He raises his eyes and meets her ambitious gaze.
The girl smiles brightly.
Her words are as merciless as they were back then.
"Long time no see."
"Shen. Cheng. Zhi."
