Chapter 5
Kim Cho-wan recalled a novel she had read at some point in her life.
Generally speaking, the female protagonist will encounter three types of handsome men: one is silent and aloof, one is humble and gentle, and one is clumsy and enthusiastic.
They will have a fateful encounter and soon fall for the heroine one by one. However, romance in novels is not always smooth sailing, and there will always be people or things that become stumbling blocks to the protagonists' love.
For example, there's the rich girl who's infatuated with a male protagonist but can't have him, or the seemingly good friend of the female protagonist who's actually consumed by jealousy and turned to the dark side, or the parents of both sides who have unequal status or past grudges, and the male protagonists who compete for love with each other.
But no matter what happens, the male protagonist's love for the female protagonist will not waver, and the female protagonist will eventually choose her true love.
As for the supporting characters who appeared in the book, the bad ones will be punished, while the good ones will have a good ending.
Then, happy ending.
That's what it says in the books.
Jin Chuwan was 100% certain that this was a world from a romance novel.
But who can tell her—
What's going on here?!
It's the same place where the accident just happened.
Out of kindness, Kim Cho-wan reached out to help the fallen boy up.
And the other party caught her.
However, perhaps, possibly, she didn't have much strength because she hadn't eaten breakfast, or perhaps the boy used too much force when he held her.
In short, she fell on top of him again.
Then, the two stared at each other as if struck by lightning.
Who would have thought that the legendary tragic accident of falling down and inevitably kissing would happen to her? And because the fall was so violent, Jin Chuwan even heard a crisp sound from her jawbone hitting the ground.
The crowd watching the spectacle gasped in unison, followed by a burst of ambiguous laughter and a few teasing whistles.
Jin Chuwan's face turned pale. She shoved the boy in front of her and fled the scene as fast as she could.
After Kim Cho-wan left, the silver-haired boy who had been preparing to run away was finally caught up by the nurse.
The nurse looked angrily at the boy who was covering his lips and seemed dazed.
"Yin Zhihua, please stop being so stubborn. The surgery must be done today no matter what. You can't delay any longer!"
This time, the boy called Yin Zhihua finally didn't run away again, and even followed the nurse very obediently.
After enjoying the spectacle, the crowd dispersed, satisfied, and the corridor quickly returned to its tranquility.
As Yin Zhihua passed by the stairs, he saw a familiar figure flash by.
He paused for a moment, then looked up.
"Jiang Chen?"
The silver-haired boy called out softly, but Jiang Chen, who was hurrying past, did not notice the voice behind him.
He finally rushed back to the ward, but couldn't find Jin Chuwan. Jiang Chen searched the corridor and finally found Jin Chuwan lost in thought in the stairwell next to the water room.
What are you doing standing here all alone, lost in thought?
Jiang Chen's sudden appearance clearly startled Jin Chuwan, who abruptly raised her head.
The boy who had disappeared for half a day was standing in front of her at some point. He was leaning on his knees, breathing slowly, and his forehead was covered with obvious sweat.
“You…” Jin Chuwan hesitated before standing up. When he saw the lunchbox the boy was carrying, he suddenly realized something.
"You're home?"
Jiang Chen tilted his head and wiped the thin layer of sweat from his face with his collar. He didn't say anything, but simply handed the lunchbox to Jin Chuwan.
"Eat your food properly and don't think too much."
After saying that, Jiang Chen turned and walked towards the ward, while Jin Chuwan followed behind at a distance, carrying a lunchbox. Although it was faint, she could still smell the delicate fragrance emanating from his arms.
The midday sun shone through the glass of the corridor from time to time, and although it was only for a very short time, it still felt scorching.
Jin Chuwan stared at the boy's broad back for a long time, but still couldn't bring herself to say thank you.
In fact, she understood all the theories and methods of getting along with people, but whether in her past life or this life, she was not very good at dealing with this kind of sudden friendliness.
Will this bother others? How should I repay them? Are they forcing me? These kinds of thoughts made Jin Chuwan extremely conflicted.
Fortunately, that kind of kind and gentle demeanor has not appeared in her very often.
"Jiang Chen, aren't you going to school?"
Upon hearing the question, Jiang Chen stopped at the door of the ward and glanced at Jin Chuwan.
"Would I normally go there?"
The boy's profile was bathed in sunlight, and his dark eyes seemed to be tinged with gold.
Even Jin Chuwan, who has lived two lives, had to admit that Jiang Chen was really good-looking.
His eyes, which always seemed to conceal no emotion, were very beautiful. His high, straight nose was also attractive. His skin was smooth and fair, and his figure was tall and upright. It seemed that whenever he stood in a crowd, the crowd would become mere background figures.
He truly lives up to his role as the male lead.
Kim Chu-wan sighed inwardly once again.
"By the way, I also called the tutoring center. The teacher there said you should get some rest."
Upon hearing this news, Jin Chuwan's expression changed immediately. How did Jiang Chen know her tutoring center's phone number?
Jin Chuwan frowned slightly. Although now was not the time to dwell on these things,
"How could you make such a decision on your own?"
There are only three months left until the college entrance examination. Now is the most crucial time!
Seeing Jin Chuwan angry, Jiang Chen smiled faintly. He leaned against the door, his eyes slightly lowered.
"Jin Chuwan, I'm number one in the whole school, aren't I?"
"Instead of sending your child to a tutoring center, wouldn't it be better to just ask me?"
The boy's voice was calm, as if it were just a very ordinary question, but Jin Chuwan couldn't help but raise her head to look at Jiang Chen.
Sure enough, something was wrong with him.
As the male lead, he suddenly shows affection for her, the female supporting character.
Why?
Did something happen that made the female lead jealous? Like in some romance novels, the male and female leads have a conflict, and then the male lead, in order to get the female lead's attention, suddenly starts going out with someone he hates.
It's like the plot of "Hana Yori Dango".
Jin Chuwan thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible. She pursed her lips and then sighed softly.
"don't want."
She is not interested in other people's romantic relationships.
As a supporting character in the story, she still hopes to have a proper and peaceful ending.
She won't interfere with the female lead's love life, nor will she do anything to meddle or fuel the flames.
Although she has never admitted it, everything in this world is precious to Jin Chuwan: a brand new second life, tolerant and loving parents, and a future that seems bright and promising so far.
Also, Cheng Ya and Lili have always been by her side.
Jin Chuwan raised her head and looked into Jiang Chen's dark eyes, trying to understand the meaning in his gaze.
But in the end, she gave up.
"I might not be able to concentrate on my studies if you're next to me."
She didn't like the noisy, bustling atmosphere that always surrounded him, and she didn't want to force herself to fit in.
After finishing her speech, Jin Chuwan took the lunchbox and went into her room. She felt that she had made her point clearly and tactfully.
After all, she was just a supporting character, and the world ultimately revolves around the protagonist.
Therefore, she also needs to be careful with her words, and it's best not to make the main characters too disliked.
