Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 511

"I asked for you."

The next day after evening self-study, Li Xiuyu was sitting on an electric car. When he saw Li Zhuangsheng coming, he waved from afar.

"Have you asked? What's the situation?"

"Why should I tell you!"

Hearing this, Li Zhuangsheng was speechless: "What are the conditions?"

"Like a slave..." Li Xiuyu stretched out both hands and opened them, "Ten days."

"You are taking advantage of the situation!" Li Zhuangsheng was furious.

Li Xiuyu looked indifferent: "Then there is nothing we can do."

Li Zhuangsheng lowered the price: "Five days."

"In seven days, I will tell you exactly what Hu Mengdie said."

"make a deal!"

Li Xiuyu looked regretful: "I knew that ten days would be enough!"

Li Zhuangsheng urged: "Stop talking nonsense, what's going on?"

"There's nothing wrong. She just said she has no conflicts with Xie Jiangqing."

"..."

"..."

"That's all?" Li Zhuangsheng blinked.

"That's all." Li Xiuyu spread his hands.

"No, you're just teasing me!"

"That's what she said. She said she had no conflicts with Xie Jiangqing. Later, I asked her why she played less with Xie Jiangqing, and she said it might be because they were not in the same class and were busy with their studies, so they played less."

Li Zhuangsheng asked, “That’s it?”

Li Xiuyu nodded: "That's what she said."

Li Zhuangsheng was silent for a while. Could it be that this rumor was just groundless? Although this was the best outcome...

"Does she know about the rumors out there?"

"She knows."

Li Zhuangsheng frowned. If Hu Mengdie knew about this rumor, she only needed to eat together with Xie Jiangqing in the cafeteria a few times and the rumor would be self-defeating. How could it have spread until now?

I should ask Xie Jiangqing first.

"What are you thinking about? Let's go!" Li Xiuyu urged, "I'll give you Xie Jiangqing's phone number when I get home!"

As the person who knows Li Zhuangsheng best in the world, she is very clear that Hu Mengdie's answer cannot answer his doubts, so she will definitely find Xie Jiangqing next to find out the situation personally.

After returning home, Li Zhuangsheng hesitated for a moment and then called Xie Jiangqing directly.

"Who is it?" An impatient voice came from the phone.

"I am Li Zhuangsheng."

"Ah..." The other party was totally unprepared, so he was a little flustered. After a while, he stammered, "Why are you looking for me?"

"What happened between you and Hu Mengdie recently? Did you have a fight?"

Xie Jiangqing's voice suddenly became a little excited: "No! We didn't quarrel!"

Li Zhuangsheng could tell Xie Jiangqing was hesitant to speak, so he pressed on, "What's going on? I heard you guys had a fight and you guys don't play together anymore."

Xie Jiangqing's tone froze for a moment before she said angrily, "I don't know, go ask her!"

Li Zhuangsheng sighed, "Just tell me what's going on. You guys can quarrel, but don't drag me into this. I didn't do anything. I'm almost a scumbag."

"Really, there's nothing. I don't know. Anyway, I seem to be hated by her..." Xie Jiangqing said in a low voice, "But I didn't do anything... Can you help me ask?"

It seems that it is useless to ask Xie Jiangqing, Li Zhuangsheng sighed quietly.

"Okay, I got it. I'll go ask her. I'm hanging up now."

"Um... Hey!" Xie Jiangqing called Li Zhuangsheng before he hung up the phone and said softly, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Li Zhuangsheng put down the phone, flipped through the phone book, and found Hu Mengdie's name. The last time they spoke on the phone was during the summer vacation.

After hesitating for a long time, Li Zhuangsheng decided to press the dial button.

No one answered the first time, so Li Zhuangsheng didn't call again. A few minutes later, Hu Mengdie called.

"Strange, what else is going on that requires me to take the blame?"

After the call was connected, Hu Mengdie made a slightly playful joke.

Li Zhuangsheng coughed lightly: "You are too much, as if I am going to harm you by looking for you."

"Isn't it? I've been so worried lately that I have to be very careful when walking in school, for fear that your guy will suddenly jump out and slap me!"

"Not really, not really...Haha, it's been so long and she hasn't come to see you yet!"

"But every time we bump into each other, she looks like she wants to eat me! Besides, she's never hit me before."

"Well, that's all in the past... She will never bother you again! I can promise you that!"

"Will your promise be useful? You must have promised to love me forever, right?"

Li Zhuangsheng became increasingly embarrassed and awkward. He could stand on the moral high ground in front of anyone, but he could only remain silent when facing Hu Mengdie.

"What if your promise doesn't work and I get beaten by your girlfriend again? It's useless to get beaten. You won't help me or comfort me. You will only applaud and say she beat me well!"

"How could that be? I will definitely hold her back!"

"I've already been beaten, what's the point of you pulling her in again! You're too biased, you only indulge the current one to beat the ex!"

Hu Mengdie's tone was like she was scolding him, but also like she was acting coquettishly. It was like a chubby little cat rubbing against one's body, making the person feel itchy.

Li Zhuangsheng had no way to defend himself, so he could only smile bitterly and change the subject: "You, stop making trouble. I have something serious to discuss with you!"

"Oh, so you have something serious to talk to me about! I originally thought you were just lonely and bored, so you called me to chat... I was thinking, how pitiful I am... I am just someone to chat with when you are lonely." Hu Mengdie said faintly, "I didn't expect that I am more pitiful than I thought, I am not even someone to chat with, I am just a tool for you to use at your convenience."

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that..."

Li Zhuangsheng denied it verbally, but he only denied it verbally and could not come up with any arguments to support his denial.

"Okay, let me hear what you have to say!" Hu Mengdie stretched out her voice. Li Zhuangsheng scratched his face, feeling even more embarrassed: "Well, I want to ask you, what's going on between you and Xie Jiangqing?"

"Oh... is it because of this that your Madam is jealous?"

"Why is she jealous? I just heard some bad rumors... and it seems to be related to me. Oh, although I know it must be a rumor, but..."

"What if it's not a rumor?" Hu Mengdie interrupted Li Zhuangsheng softly.

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned, and for a moment, he couldn't say anything.

"Pfft...Hahahaha, I was just kidding, you wouldn't take it seriously, right?" Hu Mengdie suddenly laughed, feeling quite proud of having "played a successful prank".

"Haha, hahaha..." Li Zhuangsheng also laughed dryly, thinking, is this funny? This is not funny!
"How could I like someone like you who is so heartless and abandons his wife and daughter!" Hu Mengdie pursed her lips and her voice gradually became low.

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless again. After a long while, he said weakly:
"Let me make it clear that I only abandoned my wife, not my daughter."

"Then you are still very honorable?" Hu Mengdie snorted coldly.

"…I didn't say that…but please don't accuse me of anything."

"In short, you think too much. Although it has something to do with you..." Hu Mengdie took a deep breath and smiled slightly, "I know what you mean. I will handle it and will not let rumors affect your relationship with her."

Li Zhuangsheng felt a little apologetic after hearing these words, but that was all he could do.

"Okay, thank you. I owe you a favor." said Li Zhuangsheng.

"You want to compensate me with material things? Or do you think that's my price?"

Hu Mengdie's voice was calm, and Li Zhuangsheng became more and more uneasy: "You helped me, I must thank you! We are friends!"

"Friend? Okay, okay, I get it. I'm looking forward to your friend fee. Or as usual, let Li Xiuyu bring it to me?"

"Well...there's nothing else to do. I'll hang up first." Li Zhuangsheng prepared to escape.

"Are you in such a hurry to hang up the phone?"

"Again, there's nothing else to do."

"Just kick me away when you don't need me anymore?"

"So, do you have anything else?"

"I think I can talk to you more, isn't it? It's rare that you call me."

"Ha...hahaha...I'm mainly doing the exercises. You should also study hard. Are you art students going to take the art exam soon? Come on!"

"Li Zhuangsheng, you are such a disgusting person. You are actually my first man, how disgusting! How disgusting!"

Hu Mengdie hung up the phone angrily.

Li Zhuangsheng remained silent, feeling an indescribable heaviness.

"Have you finished the call?" Li Xiuyu pushed the door open.

"You are eavesdropping!" Li Zhuangsheng was shocked.

Fortunately, I didn’t turn on the speakerphone just now.

"I just took a shower!" Li Xiuyu glared at him. "Besides, what shameful things did you say to others? Are you afraid that I would overhear?"

"We are upright and honest, there is nothing to be ashamed of!" Li Zhuangsheng coughed forcefully, "Anyway, it's okay, you should go to bed early."

"Does Hu Mengdie really like you?" Li Xiuyu stared at Li Zhuangsheng.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Zhuangsheng seemed to have been stepped on. "That happened so long ago, she has long forgotten it!"

"I just mean after losing my memory... forget it." Li Xiuyu waved his hand and turned back to his room.

In Li Xiuyu's opinion, Hu Mengdie's previous love was just to help her act, but now, Hu Mengdie seems to have some affection for Li Zhuangsheng. Is it because she heard that she liked Li Zhuangsheng before and became curious about him, which in turn prompted her to develop feelings for Li Zhuangsheng that did not exist before?
But at least so far, the other party has not shown any intention of competing for Li Zhuangsheng. Instead, he has been actively giving her advice (mainly painting a rosy picture and making up a grand blueprint for the future of the brother and sister).

Forget it, don't let your imagination run wild. Besides, even if it's true, don't let Li Zhuangsheng think about it now.

She would be jealous, but she has been feeling more and more sorry for him lately. Let's wait until after the college entrance examination. Now, don't cause him any more trouble.

The first time Li Xiuyu heard the name Hu Mengdie was from Li Zhuangsheng. It was during the military training period when he entered the first year of high school. The cicadas were chirping and the weather was as hot as a big steamer.

The shoes distributed during military training were of very poor quality. Not only did the soles smell of glue, they were also hard, and my feet hurt after training for a long time.

Li Xiuyu heard that putting sanitary napkins in shoes would have miraculous effects, and after trying it, she really felt much better. Then she found Li Zhuangsheng, and wanted to tease him, but then she thought that Li Zhuangsheng might not be willing to put sanitary napkins in his shoes, so she ordered him to take off his shoes without saying anything, and forced him to put sanitary napkins in his shoes.

It was at that time that she heard Li Zhuangsheng's sound. She could feel his excitement without even looking up. He said that there was a girl in the women's team next door who was very beautiful and danced well. Many boys said she was the school belle! My dear sister, your status as the school belle is at stake!

Li Xiuyu was getting annoyed. Li Zhuangsheng had big feet, so she brought nightwear. But the daywear was too small, and the nightwear was too big. She compared them for a long time, fearing that they would be too big and squeeze Li Zhuangsheng's feet.

When she raised her head impatiently, she saw Li Zhuangsheng sweating profusely, but there was a trace of longing in his eyes. It was an expression she had never seen before.

Li Xiuyu asked who the girl was, and Li Zhuangsheng said that her name seemed to be Hu Mengdie.

Isn’t it fate?
Perhaps, Li Xiuyu had heard of this person before, but the words of others were just wind in her ears. She would only listen carefully when Li Zhuangsheng spoke.

She stared at Li Zhuangsheng coldly. Li Zhuangsheng liked to do things like "covering one's ears and stealing the bell". What about "others say she is the school beauty", this is what you think, and you insist on saying that others say it!

She swallowed her anger and put the sanitary napkin on Li Zhuangsheng, then turned and left. Later, she secretly went to see Hu Mengdie and was really amazed.

But she felt relieved, especially after the official class division.

The two were not in the same class, so there was no possibility for Hu Mengdie and Li Zhuangsheng to be together. Hu Mengdie would definitely have many suitors, and she would not be attracted to a fool like Li Zhuangsheng, while Li Zhuangsheng was the biggest coward, and he would never dare to take the initiative to pursue a girl, especially a high-class beauty like Hu Mengdie.

This fact is indeed as she expected. Li Zhuangsheng has some improper thoughts about Hu Mengdie, just like a toad wanting to eat swan meat. Let him think about it. Although it is not pleasant, there is nothing he can do about it. Anyway, she never shows it normally... But who knew that Zhu Zhixue would appear halfway.

……

The next day at noon, when Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue went to the cafeteria to eat, they saw Hu Mengdie and Xie Jiangqing sitting together, talking and laughing. When she saw the two of them, she smiled and waved.

"Have they made up?" Zhu Zhixue asked subconsciously.

"What did you say?" Li Zhuangsheng pretended to know nothing.

"Oh, nothing... I heard that Hu Mengdie and Xie Jiangqing had a quarrel before, it seems."

"How come I haven't heard of it? It must be a rumor."

"Well, it should be..."

Zhu Zhixue had an inexplicable expression. She was glad that the rumor was not true, but also regretful that the rumor was not true, as it did not cause the bitch Hu Mengdie to break up with her friends and become a lonely person.

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his eyes. He knew that interacting with Xie Jiangqing like this was not what Hu Mengdie wanted, but she did this out of consideration for his request.

He didn't know why Hu Mengdie wanted to distance herself from Xie Jiangqing... but he knew that Hu Mengdie was definitely forcing herself to do so.

But he could do nothing now and could only silently accept Hu Mengdie's favor.

Xie Jiangqing is actually a very nice person... After all, we have been best friends for so many years, and we will be good friends in the future. She is also a bridesmaid, so there is really no need to distance herself from her. Li Zhuangsheng comforted himself.
