Yan Lingyu

By the time Li Qingran realized she had been transplanted into a book, she had already muddled through seventeen years. 
Growing up together as childhood sweethearts with the male protagonist Xie Ying’an, their relationship was rather passable. 
Endowed with the halo of the male lead, Xie Ying’an was like a hacked character from birth: good-looking, from a good family, with good academics... 
Li Qingran vaguely remembers that she was a female supporting character in the book, whose ending was not good due to constantly making trouble for the female protagonist. 
Li Qingran shuddered, feeling all too familiar with this plot; getting involved or not could both lead to trouble, so she needed to come up with some strategies to cope...
PS: Unrequited love theme, male and female leads are high school students, and they do not engage in early romance.

I Might Have Fallen in Love With My Childhood Sweetheart

Qingran got home to find Aunt Liu still hadn't left.


Aunt Liu was mopping the living room floor, and when she saw Qingran come home, she put down the mop and headed to the kitchen to serve the food.


Qingran set down her backpack, washed her hands, and came out just in time to hear Aunt Liu saying, "Oh my, I've been hardly able to catch you and Xiao Mo lately; you spend more time at school than at home these days."


Qingran smiled and said, "The last two years of high school are critical, so naturally I need to spend more time studying."


While making orange juice, Aunt Liu laughed and said, "That's true. Work hard for these two to three years; I hear it gets much better in college."


They enjoyed a pleasant meal, and after clearing the dishes, Aunt Liu prepared to leave.


As she reached the door, she seemed to suddenly remember something and stopped, "Hey, Ranran?"


Qingran looked over puzzled, "What's wrong, Aunt Liu?"
