Invited back to her alma mater to encourage the new senior students, Xiao Ruowei was publicly confessed to by a junior named Su Sheng during the Q&A session. Initially thinking it was a prank orchestrated by her cousin Xiao Ruoqiang to embarrass her, she didn't expect that Su Sheng had been keeping their one-year promise in mind. Seizing the opportunity, he sought to make his presence felt in front of her, proving through his actions that he genuinely wanted to pursue her. Xiao Ruowei found herself unwittingly caught in his gentle trap. After believing for a long time that Su Sheng was just a mediocre student, she discovered a year later, while passing by her old school, that he had taken her place as the new top scorer in the college entrance examination. When he stood in front of her again, Xiao Ruowei finally did not reject him anymore.

Chapter 1

The cicadas clung to the trees, their incessant chirping filling the air. The leaves of the sycamores drooped under the sun's relentless heat, and the atmosphere was thick with a sense of restlessness, as if a single spark could have set everything ablaze.

"The world is your oyster..."

Large beads of sweat rolled down Lexie's forehead, dampening her eyelashes and blurring her vision. The words on her manuscript became increasingly illegible, as if the sweat had diluted them into transparency.

The murmurs from the audience spread like ripples in her ears. Lexie Gilbert stared blankly at the crowd, her mind a complete blank, as if a nerve had suddenly been pinched.

Where had she left off?

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the grade director stand up, signaling everyone to quiet down. Lexie wiped away the sweat still dripping down, glanced at her speech script, and hurriedly finished her speech.

For Lexie, the most dreaded task was delivering a speech as the student representative at the annual opening ceremony. Yet, as one of the outstanding graduates from Crestwood, she was invited by the principal of her alma mater to give a motivational speech to the new senior class.

Even after the speech ended, it wasn't over. Lexie remained on stage to share her study methods with the younger students, offering advice like "listen attentively and ask questions when in doubt", "maintain a regular schedule for efficient study", and "review past exam papers to tackle weak points"-all methods that had been repeated countless times before.

After sharing her study tips, there was a "Question and Answer" session.

The senior students below began whispering again. Lexie tugged at her T-shirt, which clung to her back with sweat, wishing for the tedious ceremony to end quickly.

"Hello, Lexie, my name is Simon. My question is that if I get into Aldridge University next year, can I pursue you?" A tall, lanky boy stood up, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

The grade head's face turned particularly grim, while the students below started to stir. Despite several calls for "silence" from the grade head, the commotion continued.

The crowd was in an uproar, yet Simon remained unfazed, smiling as he waited for Lexie's response.

Lexie felt her face burning as if it were on fire, unsure of how to react to the awkward situation.

"Lexie, is my question that difficult to answer?"

Lexie lowered her head, pondering for a moment, then cleared her throat and spoke into the microphone, "I'll be waiting for you at Aldridge University."

The crowd erupted once more. Someone started clapping, and others quickly followed, the applause drowning out all other sounds.

Outside the window, the cicadas continued their song.
