She Is Still Cute Today by Guo Si Te is one of the foundational long-running Chinese baihe school manhua, a 111-chapter slow-burn romance between the iciest top student in Grade 10 and the dumbest, sweetest delinquent in the school. The premise is the genre's purest classic-pairing, smart-meets-dumb, and the execution is what has kept readers reading for years. Guo Si Te is patient about every beat, never rushes the friendship into romance, and trusts that a girl who scored four out of a hundred on a math test can still be the heroine.

What is She Is Still Cute Today?
She Is Still Cute Today is a Chinese GL school manhua by Guo Si Te (郭斯特), serialized on bilibili manga under its Chinese title 今天的她也是如此可爱 and translated to English by independent scanlation groups. The series sits in the slow-burn, friends-to-lovers, school-life corner of Chinese baihe, alongside titles like Their Story (Tamen de Gushi) and Whisper Me a Love Song's Chinese cousin titles, with full-color webtoon art and the kind of patient emotional writing that makes Guo Si Te's work a recurring entry in best-of lists.
The premise is the genre's purest pairing. Cang Shu is the top student in Grade 10 Class A, sixteen years old, a Scorpio with neat glasses and the kind of cold composure that keeps her isolated from her own classmates. Qi Lin is the white-haired, eye-patched delinquent in Class G, also sixteen, an Aries whose math test scored four out of a hundred and whose lowest record is something her friends keep trying to beat. The two should never have crossed paths inside their school's strict class-A-versus-class-G divide. They cross paths anyway. The romance begins decades of comic time before either of them notices.
Story Overview
The opening chapters establish the two of them on opposite sides of the school's social ladder. Cang Shu studies, reads, and politely keeps everyone at arm's length. Qi Lin sleeps through class, sneaks out for snacks, and treats getting a 4 on a math test as a normal Tuesday. The manhua introduces them through a small misunderstanding, the kind that should end with the two of them never speaking again, and then refuses to let it end. Qi Lin's pure-hearted obliviousness charms Cang Shu in a way Cang Shu cannot explain to herself. Cang Shu's flustered, controlled response charms Qi Lin in a way Qi Lin would not recognize as charm if you spelled it out for her.
The middle chapters build the friendship. Study sessions where Cang Shu actually tries to teach Qi Lin math. Shared snacks, the lunch-counter routines, the slow integration of Qi Lin into Cang Shu's small circle of polite acquaintances. Side characters emerge, classmates and friends from both class A and class G, and the manhua uses them to triangulate the central pair's dynamic without ever letting them upstage it. Recurring small beats, Qi Lin saying something painfully sweet without realizing it, Cang Shu hiding her face behind a textbook, become the series' reliable engine.
By the back half of the translated run, the friendship has bent toward something both of them are starting to recognize, even if neither of them has put a name to it yet. Cang Shu's pride and Qi Lin's obliviousness remain the central comic engines, but the romance is no longer subtext. The narrative tension across the 111 chapters available is whether Qi Lin can ever notice what Cang Shu is feeling, and whether Cang Shu can ever say it out loud. Both questions are slow-rolled with the patience the genre is known for.
Main Characters
- Cang Shu (苍舒): The protagonist on the cold-and-studious side of the central pair. Grade 10 Class A, sixteen years old, Scorpio. Long dark hair, neat glasses, the school's top student in every subject especially the arts. Likes milk, chocolate, classical music, and chess. Dislikes fish with bones (it makes her look ungraceful when eating, which she takes personally). Her arc is the slow erosion of her own emotional composure under the steady pressure of Qi Lin's existence.
- Qi Lin (齐麟): The protagonist on the dumb-and-sweet-delinquent side. Grade 10 Class G, sixteen years old, Aries. Short white hair, eye-patched, scruffy school uniform. Best subject: nothing, especially arts. Lowest math score: 4 out of 100. Likes milk beverages, pop music, and gaming. Dislikes piano (the manhua never quite explains why). Her arc is the slow, oblivious wandering into a relationship she does not realize she is in until very late in the run.
- Class A and Class G classmates: The supporting cast around the central pair populates both sides of the school's class divide. Cang Shu's friends are studious, controlled, and slightly bewildered by her growing interest in someone from Class G. Qi Lin's friends are the kind of cheerful delinquents who notice everything except themselves, and they spend roughly the entire run trying to figure out what is happening between Qi Lin and that polite girl who keeps showing up.
- Teachers and family: School staff and the leads' families round out the world. The teachers are the slow voices of structure trying to corral Qi Lin into something resembling a transcript. The family scenes give both leads small interior moments that the school chapters do not have room for.
Why It Resonates
Chinese baihe school manhua is a crowded genre, and the smart-meets-delinquent pairing is one of its most worn-out templates. She Is Still Cute Today is the version of this template that everyone in the genre is measured against. Guo Si Te's patience is the reason. Most manhua in this niche speedrun the friendship phase to get to the kissing. Guo Si Te does the opposite. The friendship is the point. The kissing, when it comes, lands harder because the manhua has spent dozens of chapters making the reader earn it.
What sets it apart from the broader school-yuri tradition is the writing's affection for Qi Lin. The dumb-sweet delinquent trope is full of cheap, mean-spirited variants where the character exists to be patronized by the smart half of the pair. Guo Si Te refuses to do this. Qi Lin's obliviousness is treated as a feature, not a deficit. Her four-out-of-a-hundred is funny because it is hers, not because the manhua is laughing at her. Cang Shu falls for her in the same direction the reader does, and the manhua trusts the reader to come along.
The art is the third reason. Guo Si Te's clean digital-color webtoon style is immediately readable, with character designs that the manhua repeats consistently across hundreds of chapters and small visual jokes (Qi Lin's eye patch shifting sides depending on the gag, Cang Shu's blush level rendered as a precise color graph) that reward long-form reading. The recurring color language, Cang Shu's dark hair and neat blue uniform against Qi Lin's white hair and messy red tie, is used with intention from the first chapter to the latest.
Art Style & Format
She Is Still Cute Today is a vertical-scroll Chinese manhua in full color. The art style is clean digital webtoon with bright pastel palettes, clear lineart, and the kind of consistent character design that has kept the series visually steady across over a hundred chapters. Guo Si Te's panel pacing is comedy-first, with the longer slow-burn romance beats given full pages when they need them and the recurring gag beats compressed into tight three-panel rhythms.
Format-wise it is a full-color vertical webtoon designed for phone or desktop scrolling. Chapters range from short comic-strip-length to longer plot-development arcs, with side-chapter extras peppered throughout the main run. Yurivan's continuous reader stitches all 111 translated chapters into a single uninterrupted vertical scroll.

Content Warnings
She Is Still Cute Today is a wholesome, all-ages-friendly school slice-of-life GL manhua. No explicit sexual content across the translated run. Themes include classic high-school social pressures (academic competition between Class A and Class G, teacher-student dynamics, light bullying scenes that resolve in-arc), family expectations on the studious half of the central pair, and the patient emotional terrain of a friendship slowly turning into something else. All romantic content is between adult or high-school-aged characters.
Readers looking for steamy or adult yuri should know that this is a tonally gentler title, closer in feel to Bloom Into You's early arcs or Their Story than to adult-yuri manhua like Distorted Love or Surrendering to My Enemy's Cold Embrace.
Is She Is Still Cute Today Finished?
The Chinese serialization on bilibili manga is ongoing. The English archive currently mirrored on Yurivan covers 111 translated chapters and 2,861 pages, and we will add additional chapters as new English translations are released. A small number of late chapters and bonus extras (the very back of Volume 4 / early Volume 5 territory) are temporarily missing from the mirror due to source-site outages during seeding, and we will backfill them when the source goes back up. The central romance between Cang Shu and Qi Lin has continued to develop across the available chapters without yet reaching a closing arc.
