Background

He Jing initially dismisses her parents' belief that Xu Yanche's marriage to her vegetative older brother, He Qing, could bring the family luck. During their first dinner together, however, she realizes that she can hear Xu Yanche's unspoken thoughts despite his not speaking aloud. 5

After learning that Xu Yanche had been the provincial top scorer and consistently ranked first in university, she asks him to tutor her. Her initial assessment exposes serious academic weaknesses, including a score of twenty-two in mathematics; Xu Yanche responds with an intense regimen of foundational review, memorization, early rising, and frequent testing. 5 6

Her motivation changes as her parents begin praising her progress and she discovers that Xu Yanche is the voice actor she admires, Long Aotian. She becomes determined to improve, requests advice from him, and treasures the autograph book he obtains from voice actors for her. 16 36 40

He Jing later becomes involved with Zisang Bai, who exploits her money while secretly planning to use and ruin her. She initially defends him, but eventually agrees to investigate him, recognizes his manipulation, rejects him at school, and resumes focusing on her studies. 120 122 124 177

Following her 699-point National College Entrance Examination result, He Jing chooses Public Security University over National Defense University. She and Mu Sen plan to become police officers and seek placement in the same city as Xu Yanche. 186 188

Appearance

He Jing is described as pretty, with a youthful appearance that becomes especially striking when she speaks as a student representative. 126 163

• Wears her hair in a high ponytail with her school uniform during her parent-teacher meeting speech. 126
• Often carries small study booklets and review materials, even while outside or at home. 62 114
• Has worn a black nightgown printed with “Long Aotian” and monkey slippers while studying early in the morning. 163

Personality

Initially, He Jing is cynical about her family's superstition and resistant to studying. She tries to retaliate against Xu Yanche's demanding lessons by flooding him with recitation recordings, only for his praise in the family group chat to make her take academic improvement seriously. 5 16

She is highly excitable around Long Aotian and becomes openly deferential after learning that Xu Yanche is her idol. Her enthusiasm also makes her easy to please: Xu Yanche taking her to school, attending her parent-teacher meeting, or bringing her food can dramatically improve her mood. 16 123 124 158

He Jing is naïve in romance early on, allowing Zisang Bai to manipulate her and skip school. After confronting the consequences, she develops greater discernment and bluntly dismisses him rather than returning to their relationship. 121 123 177

She has a sharp tongue when provoked. She immediately distrusts Zhan Yushan's behavior, mocks his unwanted advances, and refuses his gifts. 163 164
