Translated stories I like enough to recommend. I review them so expect some spoilers (I try not to spoil major events.)
(Please read the novels on the original translator's site which can be found on novelupdates!)
Xu Pinyu and Shen Youbai are students in the same grade, but there is a gap between them, the U-shaped school building. Xu Pinyu is in class K, where the grades are barely passible, whereas Shen Youbai is in class A, where there are elite students everywhere.
But this doesn't stop Xu Pinyu's secret love for Shen Youbai. She secretly gave him roses, secretly cut the buttons of his shirt because of the school rumour, and intentionally violated the school rules and pretended to wear a short skirt in order to have more contact with him. Everything she did was for him, the one in her heart.
The first half of this dark unrequited love is like a solo dance, you can feel the sour and bitter feelings in it.
But what she didn't know about the other person, was that he had already fallen deep into the nightmare called 'Xu Pinyu'.
Thoughts:
The smut is VERY detailed, like holy shit. The leads are bold af, dare I say the boldest couple (in cn) I have read.

Rather than romantic teenage love, this was more about sex (though there are still some sweet moments.) Both leads are obsessed with each other and their thoughts borderline toxic, but I don't really mind as both are yanderes so equal obsessiveness. Another thing is that ML tells FL about his obsession and she accepts it.
I like how they are both straightforward and assertive, which leads to them doing the two c's I care about the most, communication and consent. What a bloody turn on! If you know, you know lol.
What WAS a turn off though was when FL asked ML that if she confessed sooner, would they still end up together, his response was if she opened her legs. Wtf dude? Whatever, I will conveniently erase that from my memory.
Anyways I also liked how it was rather realistic with how teens view sex and stuff, since not everyone in highschool is as innocent as a saint. There are also twists that I did not expect would go that direction.
These two are freaking horndogs I tell you!
So yeah, I personally would've wanted to have 2-3 chapters dedicated to their marriage and maybe say ily or something but whatever.
There is no MTL for this so you'll have to google translate it. Just copy its chinese title (贈我予白) on novelupdates. There is an automatic translation and it is pretty good.
