Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 517 Fireworks
Hu Mengdie has always hated Zhu Zhixue for stealing her husband.

Li Zhuangsheng couldn't explain this. Was Hu Mengdie also a victim? And no matter what the truth was, it was stupid to speak for the ex in front of his current girlfriend.

Li Zhuangsheng laughed it off and returned home with Zhu Zhixue.

But since she bumped into Hu Mengdie, Zhu Zhixue's originally extremely happy mood has cooled down a little. Of course, it's only a little bit, and generally speaking, it didn't completely affect her mood today.

She didn't understand why Li Zhuangsheng was so "afraid" of Hu Mengdie's father, nor did she understand Li Zhuangsheng's feelings when facing Hu Mengdie. She didn't even know the kind of guilt and shame.

After they got home, they took the snacks, fruits, etc. out of the bag and put them away, and put the dumplings and glutinous rice balls into the refrigerator one by one.

In fact, Li Zhuangsheng could also feel that Zhu Zhixue's emotions were a little fluctuating, but there was really nothing he could do about it, since the two of them lived in the same community.

After being busy for a while, Zhu Zhixue's father came back. The three of them had a brief conversation. Zhu Shan asked the two to go into the bedroom to play while he started to clean the house.

"Uncle has been doing well lately." In the bedroom, Li Zhuangsheng leaned against the headboard and looked around Zhu Zhixue's bedroom with a smile, "He looks much more energetic in the past year!"

"Well, it's fine now." Zhu Zhixue just nodded, but didn't want to say too much.

I have been to Zhu Zhixue's bedroom many times. There have been a lot of changes in the past year, especially after Zhu Zhixue's birthday in the third month of the lunar calendar, Li Zhuangsheng bought her many stuffed toys.

However, the biggest change is that on the wall directly opposite the bed, there is a big heart-shaped light strip, and in the middle of the light strip are many photos of Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue.

These group photos were carefully selected by Zhu Zhixue and are her favorites. Li Zhuangsheng once joked that what to do if there are too many photos to store in the future? Zhu Zhixue smiled and said that she would just paste them all over the room and show them to her children when she has them in the future, so that they can know how much their parents love each other!

High school students talk about life, and there is a sense of adulthood, but there are also people who have gone from school to marriage. When Li Zhuang was born in the future, he once saw a Xingpeng Middle School alumni on B station who went from school uniform to wedding dress. The other party was a senior who was one year older than him.

The video was played a lot, and many Xingpeng alumni appeared in the comment section. Li Zhuangsheng liked and voted fiercely, thinking that you must be happy, and at the same time he was extremely envious.

Will I be able to shoot a vlog in the future? Zhu Zhixue should like this. If so, wouldn’t it be better to prepare in advance? But it seems that there is no need for extra preparation, as there is no shortage of photos of the two of them together.

If it's just a video, I'll shoot more later.

Video... Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but think of the original video, the fuse of everything.

But now when I think about it, there are no more waves in my heart, just a little melancholy. I can even laugh it off.

It’s not that I’ve let it go, it’s just that I have a feeling of...indifference.

How should we evaluate this kind of mood? Li Zhuangsheng once thought that this should not be the numbness after reminiscing over and over again, but a kind of saturated compensation. Maybe so.

Just like when he was a kid, he cried and made a fuss about wanting to eat braised pork, so Chen Lanying made it every day for a week. But Li Zhuangsheng got tired of it after four days, but he was too embarrassed to say it, so he just stuffed it into his mouth. He never asked for braised pork again.

Just like the candy jar on the top of the cupboard when he was a child, he could see it but couldn't reach it. Finally, one day, when no one was at home, he secretly stepped on a stool and took it down. He ate most of the candy jar, which was so sweet that he didn't like sweets for many years.

The most painful thing is to seek but not get, but once you get it, you can let it go. This is how Li Zhuangsheng thinks of himself.

"Xiaoxue, do you want to take a video?" Li Zhuangsheng took out his cell phone and smiled. "When we get married in the future, we can use a big screen to show it!"

"Okay, okay!"

Zhu Zhixue immediately became interested. She took off her down jacket, then leaned into Li Zhuangsheng's arms, looking at the camera.

"I feel like the front camera pixel is so low." Li Zhuangsheng tilted his neck. Today's mobile phones not only have low pixels, but also have extremely high latency.

However, even in the future, people will not be too critical of the imaging functions of thousand-yuan phones, let alone now.

"Yes... Apple has high pixels. When I make money in the future, I will buy you an Apple!" Zhu Zhixue patted his chest.

"Why, do you want to buy me an apple?" Li Zhuangsheng raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Zhu Zhixue buried half of her face in Li Zhuangsheng's arms, with one eye exposed, staring at the phone screen: "Well... you are always the one buying things for me... When I start working in the future, I will also give you the best!"

“Haha, I haven’t recorded it yet!”

"I'm serious!" Zhu Zhixue raised her head and looked at Li Zhuangsheng indignantly, pouting in dissatisfaction.

Li Zhuangsheng gently stroked Zhu Zhixue's head and kissed her pouting lips: "Okay, okay, I believe you. Does this mean I can eat your gigolo in the future?"

Zhu Zhixue hesitated for a moment, then nodded firmly: "Okay, you can eat my soft rice in the future, I will definitely make a lot of money and become a rich woman to support you!"

Li Zhuangsheng laughed.

"You do not believe?"

"I believe it!" Li Zhuangsheng smiled and threw Zhu Zhixue to the ground. He hugged her and gently bit her chest a few times. "Then I will be your gigolo from now on! Remember to hand over your monthly salary to me. This will give me a sense of security!"

"No problem! Eat whatever you want!"

Zhu Zhixue smiled and stroked Li Zhuangsheng's dog's head in return.

The two of them laughed and played, but soon they remembered their business and snuggled together again, facing the front camera of their mobile phones.

"Speak." Li Zhuangsheng nudged Zhu Zhixue with his elbow.

"What do you want me to say in this situation?" Zhu Zhixue also felt a little embarrassed.

"You can repeat what you just said, saying that you want to make me a gigolo for the rest of my life!"

"No, it's so embarrassing. Didn't you say you would play it when you get married? If others hear it, they will laugh at you!"

Zhu Zhixue took Li Zhuangsheng's arm, took the phone, and took a deep breath: "Well, let me tell you!"

"Well, tell me."

Zhu Zhixue adjusted her mood, pressed the record button, and said with a smile: "I want to be with classmate Li forever!"

After that, she stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Zhuangsheng on the face. Then she quickly stopped the recording button.

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned for a moment.

"Wow... so nervous, so nervous!" Zhu Zhixue fanned herself and did not notice Li Zhuangsheng's momentary distraction. She went into the photo album and watched the video she had just taken.

"Hmm... not bad..." Zhu Zhixue smiled as she watched, then looked up at Li Zhuangsheng, "But I think the angle is a bit low, would it be better if you use your phone to record it?"

"Let me see……"

Li Zhuangsheng took the phone.

"I want to be with classmate Li forever!"

Zhu Zhixue's voice rang out again on the phone, and she was half shy. Although the two had done erotic things and said a lot of sweet words, it was really embarrassing to record it.

"I think it's OK." Li Zhuangsheng didn't listen to it a second time and left. "That's enough. I see you're a little nervous. When you set off the fireworks tonight, take some more natural shots!"

"Okay!" Zhu Zhixue agreed without thinking, and was obedient. As night fell, Zhu's father cooked dumplings for the three of them and cut some sausages to steam. In addition, there were many cold dishes on the table, such as braised beef in soy sauce and pig ears.

Li Zhuangsheng said nothing on the surface, but just thought of his own family's New Year celebrations. Chen Lanying usually cooked a table of dishes and put a fish in the pot. She said that this would bring surplus every year.

As far as he knew, everyone should be about the same.

However, the Zhu family has not celebrated the New Year properly for several years. Zhu Shan can't cook, and Zhu Zhixue has forgotten that she is a student.

The three of them had a simple meal and sat in the living room watching TV, eating melon seeds and snacks, with the occasional sound of fireworks in their ears.

After a while, the Spring Festival Gala started. Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue watched the Spring Festival Gala with Zhu's father for a while, and time passed quickly.

Zhu Zhixue patted Li Zhuangsheng's arm. Li Zhuangsheng glanced at her and knew it was time to set off the fireworks, so he took the initiative to stand up and talk to Zhu Shan about it.

Zhu Shan naturally didn't say much, but just told the two to be careful. He also asked them if they would come back at night, and seemed relieved after getting a positive answer.

Zhu Zhixue also breathed a sigh of relief. She was naturally not afraid that Zhu's father would not agree. She was just glad that she could get out smoothly.

Although she knew that the creditors would probably not come again, she was still a little worried about the years of disappointment in her father.

She knew very well that gamblers never tell the truth. Zhu's father was a living example. When her grandparents were still alive, Zhu's father said he only owed 20 yuan when he owed 8 yuan, and only 50 yuan when he owed 20 yuan. He swore and swore every time. It was not until another creditor came to him that he had to confess.

Zhu Zhixue was really afraid that her father was still hiding something, and then everyone would be embarrassed, embarrassed herself, and disappointed Li Zhuangsheng.

Fortunately, at least everything went well when the two of them went out. Now all we have to do is to get our mood together and go set off fireworks with Li Zhuangsheng!
She had been looking forward to it for a whole year.

Li Zhuangsheng rode his electric bike with Zhu Zhixue on his back to his home to get fireworks, and called Li Xiuyu along. Li Xiuyu had a sour face, but he didn't say anything during the New Year.

She glanced at Zhu Zhixue who was sitting on the back seat of Li Zhuangsheng, and suddenly couldn't help but said to her, "My hands are a little sore, I don't want to ride anymore. You ride my bike, and I'll sit behind him!"

Zhu Zhixue was stunned for a moment, then realized that Li Xiuyu did it on purpose. But before she could figure out how to respond, she saw Li Xiuyu shaking his head.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything." Li Xiuyu got on the electric bike and snorted, "Let's go!"

"Are you really okay?" Li Zhuangsheng asked.

"It's okay, you can even set off fireworks!" Li Xiuyu urged, "Let's go!"

Li Xiuyu was not giving in, but he did not want to argue with others during the New Year and put Li Zhuangsheng in a difficult position. He looked very tired.

The three of them rode their bikes to the same park as last year. The park was the same as last year, with only a few people around.

"Let's set off this first!" Li Zhuangsheng took apart a board of rapid-fire cannons and distributed a few to each person.

"Biubiubiu~" Zhu Zhixue pointed at the sky a few times and said with a grin, "Is this how it's done?"

Li Zhuangsheng smiled and raised his lighter: "Yes, I'll light it and we can set it off!"

Zhu Zhixue nodded, holding the rapid-fire gun tightly in her hand, and said with emotion: "Hehe, I haven't let go of it for many years, I'm a little excited!"

Li Xiuyu frowned subconsciously: "Your family doesn't set off fireworks during the New Year?"

"Well... I used to." Zhu Zhixue bit her lip lightly.

It happened many years ago, when grandparents were still alive and she was still in primary school. Although there were always quarrels in the family throughout the year, at least during the Chinese New Year, we would celebrate the New Year in harmony.

She remembered that when she was a child, she was afraid to hold fireworks by herself, so her father held her hand and set them off together.

Li Xiuyu saw that Zhu Zhixue had a strange expression, so he thought of something and said no more.

Li Zhuangsheng didn't want to continue talking about this topic, so he took out a lighter and lit the fuses of the fireworks in Li Xiuyu and Zhu Zhixue's hands.

"boom!"

The fireworks suddenly shot out of the tube into the sky. The recoil scared Zhu Zhixue and her hands began to tremble.

"Don't be afraid." Li Zhuangsheng was quick to grab Zhu Zhixue's hand.

"Pia!"

Fireworks exploded in the night.

"I'm scared to death..." Zhu Zhixue said softly, "It's been a long time since I last watched it. It's really scary!"

"Then let's release it together. I'll help you hold it up."

"Uh-huh!"

Li Xiu Yu watched coldly and was so angry that he wanted to pick up a firework and hit Zhu Zhixue.

"Your sister is really amazing. She dares to set off fireworks by herself!"

As if sensing the murderous intent in Li Xiu Yu's heart, Zhu Zhixue pretended to praise him on the surface.

"She's even braver than me!" Li Zhuangsheng laughed. "Forget about setting off fireworks. When she was a kid, she even dared to catch mice to scare me!"

Li Xiuyu rolled his eyes at him and said coldly, "You are a coward. You were scared to death by a mouse!"

Li Zhuangsheng protested: "Hey, hey! Don't ruin my reputation in front of your sister-in-law. I'm not scared at all, I was just startled!"

"Who doesn't know who? How dare you still have the nerve to do that!" Li Xiuyu sneered, "I forgot who licked the flour in the cupboard and thought he had eaten rat poison, crying and saying he didn't want to die!"

Li Zhuangsheng blushed: "That's enough, a wise man doesn't talk about the past!"

"Haha, you look so cowardly and afraid of death, you are not a man at all!"

Zhu Zhixue listened to the two people's bickering and felt that she had no say at all. She felt sad, so she gently poked Li Zhuangsheng in the waist.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhuangsheng asked with his head tilted.

"These fireworks are so beautiful, you should buy them..."

Before Zhu Zhixue finished speaking, a familiar voice interrupted her:
"Hey, Xiu Yu, is that you?"

Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue's expressions changed slightly.

Li Xiuyu had just finished firing the rapid-fire cannon in his hand and threw it to the ground, with a look of surprise on his face: "Hu Mengdie, why are you here too?"

"Oh, just like you guys." Hu Mengdie smiled and patted Hu Mengke's shoulder, "I brought my sister to set off the fireworks."
