The Cool, Brilliant Scholar Is So Sweet. Who Needs a Childhood Friend?

[Devoted Boyfriend + New Love Beats Childhood Friend + Childhood Friend's Regret]

When I was eight, my childhood friend nearly drowned in the lake while saving me.

He said, "You'll always matter more to me than my own life."

But on his twenty-first birthday, he brazenly announced that he was dating someone else.

He shamelessly flirted with her, then branded me a homewrecker in front of the whole school.

My design became her award-winning work, and my name was branded with the mark of a plagiarist.

As the champagne tower at their celebration glittered in the moonlight, I stared blankly at the hundreds of text messages on my phone saying, "Die, homewrecker."

At last, my heart died. I worked hard at my studies and devoted myself to design,

only to discover that I, too, could be the mountain rose someone longed for in the dead of night.

Later, my childhood friend finally saw the true face of his white moonlight and knelt all night in the pouring rain.

"Please... look at me one more time."

This time, I didn't look back.

I let Pei Qingye hang the medal from the global design competition around my neck.

His fingertip brushed my collarbone as he chuckled:

"To me, you're the ultimate prize of my life!"
