Escape in the Torrential Rain

[Comments are open, come join the fun!]

Sharp-tongued, icy high-and-mighty beauty x cheerful, hot-tempered young master

At Yujing No. 1 High School's centennial celebration, Shen Fang unexpectedly ran into He Jingrang, his "nemesis" from high school.

Years had passed, and both had shed the youthful immaturity that once made them clash at every turn.

During a party game, someone asked Shen Fang about his romantic history.

With an indifferent expression, he answered bluntly, "I've never dated anyone."

Everyone merely teased him, saying they didn't believe it. How could one of the most sought-after guys at No. 1 High School have never had anyone interested in him?

In the corner, He Jingrang's hand paused as he rolled the dice. His fingertips trembled almost imperceptibly.

After the party, Shen Fang came out of the restroom, water droplets still clinging to his fingertips. Someone suddenly grabbed his wrist.

The newcomer seized Shen Fang's arm and pinned him against the wall. He Jingrang's face was half-hidden in the dim light, his eyes unreadable. "Never dated anyone?"

"Then what was I?"

He Jingrang's grip hurt. The young master's temper flared, and he snapped, "You were just unlucky, okay?"

At that, He Jingrang's hand immediately loosened. He stared into Shen Fang's eyes and only spoke after a long moment. "Meeting me really was bad luck for you."

They parted on bad terms.

Then, late one night two months later, an unfamiliar text suddenly appeared on He Jingrang's phone: [Could I be unlucky one more time?]

P.S. The story uses the old high school system of separate arts and science tracks. It unfolds in chronological order, starting with their first meeting.
