Lin Xiyun picks up recyclables on her way home from school and accidentally brings home the person she has a crush on, after he rejects her confession.
He just rejected her, and they're not even friends, but he acts like he has a say in everything she does. Then he turns around and tells her not to hate him.
Especially when her handsome desk mate walks her home. His resentful gaze could devour someone.
He's just like a haughty big cat, purring to get her attention.
Ji Xingzhao's wife was a selfish woman.
She married him for his money, deceived his sincere feelings time and again, and eventually asked to separate. A few years later, she died suddenly.
She left him getting drunk alone at midnight again and again, growing ever more withdrawn and cold.
He'd always thought he resented her, that his feelings from their youth had long since worn away. If he ever saw her again, he was sure he wouldn't marry her.
In the third year after his wife left, Ji Xingzhao got into a car accident on his way to visit her grave.
The good news: He was alive, and neither disfigured nor broke.
The bad news: He'd arrived in the year his wife loved him most, when she was eighteen and kept telling him she loved him.
On the first day he saw Lin Xiyun again, Ji Xingzhao resolved to stay away from the gold-digger.
On the second day, he was furious when her handsome desk mate walked her home. She'd never smiled at him like that.
On the third day, he saw her eating junk food. No wonder she wasn't in great health.
Half a month after seeing Lin Xiyun again, she came home and asked him her first question:
"What's for dinner today?"
A few entries from Lin Xiyun's secret-crush diary:
[I confessed to him this afternoon. He actually said he doesn't like me. What terrible taste!]
[The electric scooter at home is so old. I actually ran him over with it today. When he woke up, he had this sinister look in his eyes. Could the crash have messed up his brain?]
[I saved up ten yuan by collecting bottles. He said he'd pay, but he took me to a really fancy restaurant.]
[Why does he keep looking at me in class? He even bought me a new scooter. ∑(゚Д゚)]
Resilient, spirited girl x sensitive widower who's afraid of losing everything
1. The title comes from an internet meme about a cat acting cute toward its owner while the owner has no idea what it means.
2. The male lead transmigrates at the start of the story, with a few scattered flashbacks. Happy ending. The two timelines are nine years apart.
