Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 684 Goodwill
"Anyway, you probably haven't returned the house you had before, so you can continue to keep your mistress hidden away," Li Xiuyu said casually.

"What's wrong with your eyes?" Li Zhuangsheng asked, tilting his head.

"Oh, you've drawn eyeliner. I didn't know what eyeliner was." Li Xiuyu knew that Li Zhuangsheng was trying to change the subject.

Li Zhuangsheng stared at it: "I know the eyeliner... Who did your makeup? It suits you quite well. Haha, if you traveled back to ancient times, what chance would Pan An and Wei Jie have!"

Li Xiuyu was already exceptionally handsome, and the addition of eyeliner was the perfect finishing touch. I wonder how many girls fell for her charms today.

"Heh, you've managed to get away with some peace and quiet today."

"So, how many new members did the club recruit today?"

"I don't know," Li Xiuyu said.

"Weren't you taken away to recruit new employees?" Li Zhuangsheng asked, taken aback.

"There were too many people crowding around at once, and I found it annoying, so I left early in the morning."

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless, thinking to himself, "No wonder the senior student from the club called me today to ask where I was. Didn't you promise to help with recruitment? Can't you have a little more sense of responsibility?!"
Li Zhuangsheng muttered to himself, but said nothing aloud, after all, that was just Li Xiuyu's personality.

After recruiting new members, Li Zhuangsheng continued to exercise at the club as usual.

When a man walked straight in, none of the female students stopped him, while the female students, who were wondering what was going on, all looked puzzled.

"Senior, who is this? Is he in our club?" one of the juniors asked the senior next to her in a low voice.

"He's the only punching bag in our club," the senior student said with a smile.

“I heard that!” Li Zhuangsheng frowned in displeasure.

"Haha, I was just kidding. He's Li Xiuyu's older brother, also a sophomore, your senior. We practice women's self-defense here, so we need a real man to spar with, right? Don't worry, he has a super beautiful girlfriend with a great figure, he won't lay a hand on you!"

"Is Li Xiuyu's brother a twin?"

The freshmen didn't hear the second half of the sentence at all; their dissatisfaction vanished the moment they heard that Li Zhuangsheng was Li Xiuyu's brother.

Li Zhuangsheng neither admitted nor denied it, but simply smiled.

He glanced at it briefly and noticed that the number of people this year was significantly higher than last year.

"His nickname is Brother-in-law, you can call him that too."

A familiar voice sounded behind Li Zhuangsheng. He turned around and saw that it was the former president of the women's combat club.

"It's been a long time, senior." Li Zhuangsheng smiled.

She's already a senior, and I haven't seen her in clubs much lately.

"Come and take a look, there are quite a lot of new students this year," the club president said with a smile.

“If someone hadn’t run away so early, there would definitely be more people.” The current president looked sullen and glanced resentfully at Li Xiuyu not far away. “Then we could have applied to change to a bigger activity room.”

"Let's see how many can stay this year... Every year a lot of people sign up, but not many actually make it."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Zhuangsheng went to exercise. The freshmen, on the other hand, were led through warm-up exercises.

"You should take a rest first."

After a while, Li Zhuangsheng walked up to a chubby girl and handed her a bottle of water.

The chubby girl glanced at the senior students and obeyed Li Zhuangsheng's instructions.

"Thank you, senior!" She sat on the floor, took the bottled water, and drank it. She didn't know why Li Zhuangsheng had suddenly taken care of her. She was indeed very tired, and even had the thought of giving up.

"You're welcome. Why do you want to join this club?" Li Zhuangsheng asked with a smile as he sat down next to her.

"I... because I want to lose weight, and then, I want to exercise more."

"This club is no easy task, the amount of exercise is really high... It's quite impressive that you could last this long on the first day."

"Really? Haha..." The chubby girl scratched her head and laughed shyly.

“If you really want to change yourself, then keep at it,” Li Zhuangsheng said softly. “You only reap what you sow. If you give up, you’ll really get nothing.”

"Um...I will...Thank you, senior!"

"You're welcome. I have high hopes for you. You'll definitely be a stunning beauty once you lose weight, haha!"

Li Zhuangsheng patted the chubby girl on the shoulder, smiled, and walked away.

Li Zhuangsheng was lifting weights alone when the former club president and senior student suddenly appeared.

"I saw it!" the senior student said. "You just comforted that person."

"It's not comfort, it's encouragement."

"That really suits your personality."

"What kind of personality do you have? Gentle?"

"Troublemaker."

Li Zhuangsheng's lips twitched: "Hey, that's not a very objective statement!"

The club president laughed: "Haha, I was just kidding. You are indeed very gentle. I noticed it a long time ago. Actually, I don't think highly of that person. Although many people sign up for clubs every year, very few can actually stick with it. From the first moment I saw her, I felt that she definitely wouldn't last more than a few days, and maybe she wouldn't even come the next day."

"Senior, don't peek through the crack in the door!" Li Zhuangsheng said with a soft laugh, even though he also felt that the other person was very likely not to persevere.

"You encouraged her because you felt sorry for her?"

"I don't know exactly how I feel. I just see that she's the heaviest, and I hope she can lose weight."

"What business is it of yours whether she's thin or not?"

"You know what? There used to be a school beauty in my high school. She was called the school beauty not because she was pretty, but because she was the fattest and ugliest."

Strictly speaking, there are four legendary beauties among Xingpeng students: in addition to Hu, Zhu, and Li, there is also a clown who stands on the opposite side of the three.

The other person was a year younger than him; she was his junior.

No one in the school chased after Hu Mengdie calling her "school beauty," but many people openly mocked the "fat school beauty" in this way. Li Zhuangsheng once witnessed it; he couldn't catch up with her, couldn't yell at her, and could only stand aside, both angry and embarrassed.

Not only that, according to Li Zhuangsheng's observations since childhood, overweight girls are more likely to attract unwarranted malice.

"She's the school beauty?"

“No, I just feel that they are all the same, they must have suffered a lot of malice, being ridiculed because of their body shape... The fact that she signed up proves that she wants to change. But everyone has laziness, and she certainly can't keep up with the intensity of most people's workouts.” Li Zhuangsheng shook his head. “That's why I encouraged her. I hope my encouragement can give her some motivation to persevere. Based on my experience, sometimes, others may just lack a little bit of kindness. I hope she can successfully lose weight.”

"Hehe, what a kind soul!" The senior student from the club sized up Li Zhuangsheng's face, her eyes flickering slightly, then she feigned a cold snort, "You're in a better mood now, aren't you! During the summer vacation, you were acting like you were going to die!"
