[Childhood sweethearts | Mutual pining | Study hard]
[Gentle but scheming girl x Irreverent troublemaker]
Among the children who grew up in the same compound, Wen Yu was the most well-behaved and the least conspicuous.
She spoke softly and walked slowly. Even her reflexes seemed a little slower than everyone else's.
She liked not being noticed.
Then she started high school and became deskmates with her childhood friend, Ji Yanzhi.
Everything began to fall apart.
He was a complete delinquent, always getting into fights and skipping class. The worst part was that he was handsome, and the girls who liked him chased him right into their classroom.
With sleep-heavy eyes and a lazy half-lidded gaze, he turned his chin toward Wen Yu and said to the girl, "I like her. Give up."
Wen Yu: ...
From then on, the person being discussed on the school forum went from one to two.
Her friends stood up for Wen Yu.
They had no idea that what made her angriest wasn't becoming the center of attention. It was that...
She couldn't understand.
How could Ji Yanzhi say those words so casually?
She couldn't.
*
As for whether he'd really said he liked her so casually,
Ji Yanzhi thought it was nothing but an excuse.
An excuse to turn someone down.
An excuse to hide his true feelings...
When it came to his childhood friend, whom he'd grown up with,
if he didn't say it now, he might never be able to.
One rainy night later, in a dim room,
he gripped her slender wrist tightly and begged in a humble voice, "Help me one more time, okay, Wenwen?"
Wen Yu: ...
Fine, but this is the last time.
