The Mute Academic's Unusual Romance

[From schooldays to the wedding aisle, an utterly devoted 1v1 romance, with a heroine who only pretends to be mute]

A new transfer student arrived in her second year at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School.

She was a beautiful top student.

But her classmates thought she was a weirdo because she never spoke.

Everyone assumed she was mute.

Bai Jing first noticed Shui Qianqian on the honor roll for the monthly exam in their second year.

He had held the top spot for years, but for the first time, someone ranked above him, with a score two points higher.

At the time, he thought it might just be luck.

The second time Bai Jing noticed Shui Qianqian was also on the honor roll for their second year.

This time it was the midterm exam, and she scored one point higher than him.

Now he knew it wasn’t luck.

The third time Bai Jing noticed Shui Qianqian was on the school basketball court.

He was playing basketball, while the girl sat beneath a tree beside the court, reading.

Even though they were all wearing the same uniform, she stood out.

The fourth time Bai Jing noticed Shui Qianqian,

a boy who confessed to her was scared off by a single look!

The fifth time Bai Jing noticed Shui Qianqian was in an alley outside the school.

At the time, he thought, you can’t judge a book by its cover.

The sixth time Bai Jing noticed Shui Qianqian was in the library.

She sat beside him and wrote a line in her notebook: My name is Shui Qianqian. It’s nice to meet you.

At the time, he thought her smile made her look like an angel fallen to earth.

He’d heard that she never started conversations with anyone.

Bai Jing: “You can clearly talk, so why do you always communicate by writing?”

Shui Qianqian: “…It’s a habit.”
