Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

It was precisely because the impression was so profound that Li Zhuangsheng couldn't forget that scene. After all, the homeroom teacher was lecturing on the podium at that time, and Xie Jiangqing suddenly bursting into tears on her seat was simply too conspicuous.

Xie Jiangqing interrupted Li Zhuangsheng again with a reproachful tone: "Alright, can you say something reliable instead of taking this opportunity to slander me!"

She glanced at Hu Mengdie, her face slightly flushed. She was afraid that Li Zhuangsheng would talk nonsense, which was why she didn't want to talk to him before!

“I didn’t slander you,” Li Zhuangsheng muttered, then thought for a moment, “And when we went to the First Mountain, you made me carry you down the mountain…”

"You're talking nonsense! When did I ask you to carry me?" Xie Jiangqing couldn't take it anymore and angrily rebuked her.

At that time, she clearly asked Li Zhuangsheng to help her down!

"It's about the same as carrying me on your back!" Li Zhuangsheng pouted. "I remember you were clinging to me like a dog, holding onto my arm so tightly, I was almost exhausted!"

"you you you!"

Xie Jiangqing blushed even more and waved her hand as if to hit him, but she stopped halfway through her hand, perhaps remembering her identity.

However, Xie Jiangqing had already begun to develop at that time. Although it wasn't a large development, the sensation from her arms and back still stirred a little something in Li Zhuangsheng's heart. He felt both annoyed and secretly pleased. Of course, Li Zhuangsheng would never say such a thing aloud!

"And also, you made me come to your house, lied to me and said you were the Moon Princess, and then spread your legs in front of me..."

"Cough cough cough! Alright, alright, alright! What's past is past!"

Xie Jiangqing completely broke down, screaming as she pressed her hand to Li Zhuangsheng's mouth to stop him from revealing more of her shortcomings.

Please forget about these dark secrets of my past, okay? Don't I have any positive aspects worth writing about? Why do you insist on remembering these things? What's your purpose in bringing them up?
Everyone has been a fool when they were young, and Li Zhuangsheng knew too much about her dark history. Although the events of fifteen years ago were already blurry for Xie Jiangqing, they were still quite vivid in Li Zhuangsheng's eyes.

What should I do? Should I kill him? Should I sneak into his room while he's sleeping and smother him with a pillow? Oh, and I absolutely must wear gloves when doing this, so I don't leave fingerprints…

"Spread your legs apart..."

However, before Xie Jiangqing could even consider how to silence them, Hu Mengdie and Li Xiuyu cast questioning and inexplicable glances at her.

"No, no...you've misunderstood!" Xie Jiangqing's cheeks were burning hot, like a monkey's bottom. She angrily grabbed Li Zhuangsheng, furious and embarrassed, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

"me……"

Li Zhuangsheng was intimidated by Xie Jiangqing's imposing manner and remained speechless for a moment.

"What do you mean, 'you'? Explain yourself! Weren't you very talkative just now?" Xie Jiangqing was furious and quickly explained the situation to Hu Mengdie.

"At the time, I was just... Ran Nian... um, that's it, I was just joking with him! I didn't expect him to actually believe it!"

Xie Jiangqing rattled on and on for a long time before Hu Mengdie finally understood.

"I see... You two were really close in elementary school!" Hu Mengdie blinked. "That was all in the past!"

Xie Jiangqing quickly waved her hand, as if afraid of being associated with Li Zhuangsheng in any way. "It's just that Li Zhuangsheng had a crush on me in elementary school, but we really have nothing to do with each other now, don't misunderstand!"
Li Xiuyu raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself, "So that's how it is. Back then, seeing how obedient Li Zhuangsheng was to her, like a lackey, I thought Xie Jiangqing had caught him red-handed!"
“You two were pretty close in elementary school,” Li Xiuyu suddenly said. “If Li Zhuangsheng hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have remembered. Back then, you two were as close as if you were dating.”

Upon hearing this, Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but twitch his lips. "How stupid of me! How could you tell that we're on good terms? Couldn't you hear that I was just making a tearful accusation against her for bullying me?"

She's the only one bullying me!

"Is that so?" Hu Mengdie's eyes widened.

"No, no, Li Xiuyu, don't joke around. We're just ordinary deskmates!" Xie Jiangqing gritted her teeth in anger, but still maintained a polite expression.

Li Xiuyu, you're trying to sow discord between me and Hu Mengdie, aren't you?! So many years have passed, why are you bringing that up now? Even if it's true, you can't just say things like that!

Hu Mengdie gave Xie Jiangqing a meaningful look. Xie Jiangqing secretly wished she could grab the two siblings and put them on a drop tower without seatbelts!
"Ahem, right, I haven't asked you guys yet!" Xie Jiangqing abruptly changed the subject, "You said you only have memories of high school, so can you do all the high school problems?"

"I guess I can," Li Zhuangsheng replied cooperatively. "I've already been tested at a hospital in Nanjing, and I can basically do everything I've learned."

"That's pretty amazing!" Xie Jiangqing joked. "Do you want to continue studying and then retake the college entrance exam to go to university?"

Li Zhuangsheng asked in surprise, "I've already graduated from university, can I retake the exam now?"

Xie Jiangqing took a deep breath and gradually calmed herself down: "It should be possible. No matter how old you are, you can take the college entrance examination."

"Really...?" Li Zhuangsheng's eyes flickered, as if he was really considering it, but after a moment he decided to give up. "Ah, forget it, high school is too tiring! I finally don't have to go to school anymore!"

Although he regrets not having any memories of his university days, he still dreams of joining an anime club and finding cute anime girls after graduation.

But now that he has experienced this unprecedented freedom, it is simply impossible for him to return to his original five-to-ten lifestyle!
Am I stupid? Unless I become a Japanese high school student! And I have Kurumi Tokisaki, Ikaros Shirakawa, Kotori Natsukawa, and Masuzu Natsukawa as my girlfriends every night!
“You can’t go back to university unless you quit your job,” Li Xiuyu said coldly.

Xie Jiangqing laughed and said, "Oh right, I was just joking, but you should be able to take the postgraduate entrance exam, part-time should be possible."

"I won't think about that too much for now... I'll just sort things out first," Li Zhuangsheng sighed.

The two chatted and laughed for a while longer. Hu Mengdie would occasionally chime in with a few words, while Li Xiuyu calmly ate the fruit platter.

"It's too late, I have to go to work tomorrow." Xie Jiangqing glanced at the time and smiled at Li Zhuangsheng, "Old classmate, can I sleep with you tonight?"

“Of course you can, you can sleep with… Hu Mengdie.” Li Zhuangsheng nodded vigorously, “Her room should be big enough for her.”

"Okay, thank you very much!" Xie Jiangqing smiled with a hint of apology. "I heard that I made you sleep alone in the small study. I'm really sorry!"

"It's alright, sleeping in the study is fine!" Li Zhuangsheng smiled nonchalantly. (End of Chapter)
