1.

First Encounter.

14 year-old Xu Can was sitting on the stairs in front of the teaching building, crying uncontrollably, when a voice suddenly asked from above, “What’s wrong?”

She was startled and looked up, then found herself stunned by the sight. She sniffed with tears in her eyes, hesitating for a few seconds, not wanting to tell the truth, “teacher, I… I didn’t do well on the exam.”

Tong Mingyue then sat beside her and accompanied her in a heart to heart conversation

The next day, Tong Mingyue passed by the school bulletin board.

And saw the name Xu Can, the student she had comforted for so long who claimed to have done poorly, ranked first on the student rankings with almost perfect scores in every subject.

“……”

2.

After a lifetime of hard work, Xu Can still couldn’t escape the burden of her birth. When she was forced to jump off a building, her only regret was not seeing Tong Mingyue one last time.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw a computer screen opened to a blank document.

She was back in her sophomore year of college. Failing grades, no money, and two final exams looming…

In this lifetime, Xu Can decided to live carefree, with her heart and gaze focused solely on Tong Mingyue.

Hi there, this is the translator Lingwei here. I've decided to just make this free on Foxaholic as I'll probably be doing this more as a hobby for now and it is my first translation. I'm currently on holidays right now so I expect to finish translating by the end of July, 2024. If there are any issues with the translation itself, please leave a comment or ping me on the Foxaholic server as I am trying to polish my translations skills with this novel.

This novel is quite good. In... more>> no ways is it perfect, it's just a sweet romance about a hidden crush with a big age gap. It acknowledges the problem of the relationship between teachers and students in a relative realistic way. One thing I did really like about this novel is how the author does not give a damn about using real names and places. For example, other novel's are like university A, city B etc. Whilst this author is straight up OXFORD University in ENGLAND, and MCDONALDS without censorship lol. It adds a bit a realism to it which is quite nice. It's also quite short as well you could probably read this in 2-3 days though its gonna take me weeks to translate.

Anyways, give it a try. <<less

A nice, sweet, and somewhat quick read. The story doesn't skip or doesn't feel rushed at all compared to other novels that are as short as this one.

MC is beautiful (works as a model part time for money), smart (ranks first in her grade and is a chemistry student), mature, and sometimes acts cute (not in a flirty/funny or charming way like other protagonists but it is often brought up that she has dimples which makes people view her as cute).

FL is mature, aloof, smart, kind, and beautiful. She feels... more>> a lot more “cold” imo because we don’t really get a lot of moments or chapters where we get her POV so we don’t know how she truly reacts to the MC, shes the type to mostly hide it or show a calm expression. She feels a bit bland considering how short the novel is so we only get to see moments were MC is trying to get her attention and not much material on her.

The novel doesn't really dwell on the “going back through time” aspect apart from the first few chapters, and instead focuses on the relationship she missed in her first life with the FL. The student-teacher relationship they have is also very innocent, it focuses on the MC’s “crush” on the FL (the scenes they have together in the latter chapters just briefly describes kisses so nothing explicit happens in the novel, though it seems like FL would slightly lead MC in their relationship).

Spoiler on the debt aspect in her life:

Spoiler

she earned quite a bit of money from the stock market because she knew some of the trends in her previous life, and from her job but the “dad leaving her with debt aspect” is a plot hole for me because she did not pay his debts and only gives him a few hundred yuan per month and the story left it at that. Did he not gamble in his second life? He didn't really give her more problems in her second life apart from asking a few hundred yuan once in the first chapter (which he never did again?? Did he not do the stuff he did in her first life). Also, we don't get to see her spend that much money/spending her money at all just says she has a million and is hinted that at least she doesn’t need to save as much or be thrifty but idk; it just feels like they added that in so she could have a reason to commit and jump off in her past life. But I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt since its such a short novel and they didn't really make her the “poor girl” in the latter part of the story anymore so I kinda forgot about that aspect of her by the end

[collapse]

Overall, this is a good read for those who want a short story, with 64 ish chapters the plot and characters are good but we don't get a lot of up and downs so definitely a chill story compared to other works. <<less
