Summary

This is a short rebirth campus slice-of-life story. Its appeal lies in the protagonist returning to high school with a middle-aged mindset, dense in contrast and brisk in pace; the misunderstanding and mutual secret crush between the childhood sweethearts are delicately written, and there is a touch of urgency about stopping a family misfortune. It suits readers who like light campus stories, everyday romance, and rebirth stories that make up for regrets. Its weaknesses are that the whole book is only forty chapters and over eighty thousand characters, the business and entrepreneurship line wraps up rather hastily, and the plot is slice-of-life and lacks strong conflict.

Reading tips

  1. Read the first few chapters to see whether its light slice-of-life pace suits you before deciding to finish it
  2. Note details such as Wang Jiangqing doing his homework as foreshadowing; the romance line centers on misunderstanding and reconciliation
  3. The later entrepreneurship and shop-opening line is rather brief; read it as an easter-egg ending to the campus slice-of-life
