Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

The two explored the mountain for a while, and it was already afternoon when they reached the foot of the mountain.

Li Zhuangsheng originally wanted to find a more upscale restaurant to eat at, but Qin Luanyu said that any restaurant on the roadside would be fine, and asked if there were any wontons nearby. Li Zhuangsheng thought for a moment and realized that there was a Qianlixiang Wonton in the north of the city. He had been eating there since elementary school, and he found that the shop was still there on his way here.

Qin Luanyu demanded that Li Zhuangsheng drive the Ferrari as agreed, and even took out sunglasses that she had prepared beforehand and put them on Li Zhuangsheng's head.

Li Zhuangsheng drove with great fear, but arrived at his destination safely.

"How was it? Was it good?"

Qin Luanyu sat in the passenger seat with a smile, watching Li Zhuangsheng carefully parallel park, her tone teasing.

"It wasn't so much fun as it was a bit of fun, but mostly it was scary."

"You'll get used to it after driving it a few more times. I'll be your driver these days!"

"what……"

Qin Luanyu frowned: "What, you don't want me to be your driver, do you?"

Li Zhuangsheng reluctantly parked the car and unbuckled his seatbelt: "Or should I drive my husband over for you?"

"Wouldn't it be too drastic of me to downgrade my spending?"

"Why do you insist that I drive a Ferrari..." Li Zhuangsheng said helplessly as he took off his sunglasses.

"So that you'll get used to driving luxury cars," Qin Luanyu said matter-of-factly.

"Why do I have to get used to this..."

Li Zhuangsheng glanced at the center console, then reached out to close the convertible top. Qin Luanyu, however, suddenly spread her legs.

"What are you doing?" Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback.

"I saw some memes online and just wanted to try them out." Qin Luanyu coughed, then put her legs together again, looking serious. "Driving a car like this... the girl sitting in the passenger seat should be willing to spread her legs, right?"

It took Li Zhuangsheng a while to react: "But this is your car..."

Why are you even opening your legs? If anyone's going to open their legs, it's me... I'm a guy, why am I even opening my legs?
Qin Luanyu waved her hand and smiled, "It's okay. I don't like driving either. I've lent you the car for a while. Do you want to give it a try?"

What should I try?

"When you're out driving and you see a girl you like on the street, go up and chat her up. Once she gets in the car, touch her leg and observe her reaction."

"Then may I ask if the police station is owned by your family?"

"If I were truly chaste, I wouldn't have gotten into your car. Since I did, at least I won't call the police and have you arrested over something so trivial... Believe it or not, most girls would be even more proactive than you. If you want, you can even take care of things in the car, but make sure you clean yourself up before you return it!"

No, do you know what you're saying? That's too audacious! Li Zhuangsheng blushed as he listened.

"Using someone else's car to impress girls? That's such a pathetic life! Besides, I'm not that kind of person!"

"You should sleep with more girls," Qin Luanyu said seriously.

"Why?" Li Zhuangsheng was now at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Why would I discuss such shameful adult pornography with a girl? And now I'm actually able to accept it calmly!

Li Zhuangsheng is a person with an extremely high sense of shame. Before this, the only person he could casually bring up dirty jokes with was Li Xiuyu... Damn, I won't get angry if I don't think about it. That bastard always cut and pasted when he copied my videos before!
"I hope you can experience all of these lifestyles before deciding which one you prefer."

"What kind of life? Driving a sports car to pick up girls? I think that's pretty boring. Actually, I've thought about it carefully, what's the point of driving a sports car? You can't speed on the road, and even if you could, you wouldn't, it's too dangerous. Is it just to show off an expensive car to others? But I'm actually a pragmatist, and this sports car isn't comfortable to drive. Or is it to get that vanity from other people's envious looks when they see the car... I admit I might have some of those feelings. But as for what you said about using this car to pick up girls, I admit it sounds pretty cool, like a protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel, but I think it would be really embarrassing to actually do that. That kind of fun is really low-class, and the girls you pick up like that... seem kind of cheap."

Li Zhuangsheng sighed heavily and said everything he felt he should and shouldn't have said.

Qin Luanyu looked the other person up and down, her tone inscrutable: "Oh, so you're already reflecting on yourself so early?"

"Haha, but thinking without learning is dangerous."

"She's definitely more reserved now, but she's still the same as always." Qin Luanyu smiled enigmatically.

"Am I more reserved than before?" Li Zhuangsheng asked, then realized there was ambiguity in his question.

"What I mean is that you'll be a little more reserved in the future, but the essence won't be any different. Actually, I don't like that kind of lowbrow fun either; I just hope that if you're interested now, you'll get tired of it soon."

"I have no interest in that kind of thing... You think I'm a pervert!"

“Some people just say they’re not interested, but they still have a lot of ideas in their hearts.” Qin Luanyu looked at Li Zhuangsheng. “But I can see that you really don’t have that kind of interest. That’s good. Get off the bus!”

Actually, if it were before, I might have been a little interested... but since I got together with Hu Mengke, I haven't been so interested in other girls.

They say they're not interested, and they're not really interested either, which makes them more justified in condemning this kind of gold digger.

Unexpectedly, after only knowing each other for two days, the two were already able to discuss these deep-seated private and dark aspects of their lives without any reservations, and their hearts were not disgusted or repulsed. Everything was so natural.

"Is this the shop?"

After getting off the bus, Qin Luanyu pointed to a tiny bungalow by the roadside, with a sign that read "Fujian Qianlixiang Wonton".

"Um... how about we go somewhere else to eat?"

Li Zhuangsheng felt a little embarrassed. The shop, including the kitchen, was only about twenty square meters, a truly tiny, unassuming place. And this woman was a wealthy one; how could he have brought her to such a small place? Wasn't that a bit too rude?

"No need, this place is fine." Qin Luanyu shook her head. "Do you think rich people shouldn't eat here? Actually, I've eaten at roadside stalls before. Rich people aren't gods, they don't eat grains."

"Haha, if you don't mind, then come eat here. The food here is really good! Of course, that was 10 years ago, I don't know how it is now."

"If it can stay open for more than ten years, it must taste really good."

"Actually, I really loved eating this wonton when I was a child... to the point that I once suspected that they might have added poppy shells to the wonton soup..."

Qin Luanyu laughed, annoyed, and couldn't help but lightly tap Li Zhuangsheng on the head: "Why do you keep imagining these things? Just now you were imagining a water pipe being added behind the glass spring in First Mountain!"

"It's a reasonable guess, after all, the wontons at this shop are really delicious!"

"Hmm, if it's not good, I'll kill you!" "No way! You rich people have eaten all sorts of delicacies, your standards are definitely different from ours!"

"So-called delicacies from land and sea are not necessarily delicious. For example, I think foie gras and caviar, which are considered the world's three major ingredients, taste very strange. If you don't believe me, I can drive to Nanjing and invite you to try them. Anyway, it's less than two hours away."

"No need, no need... Okay, so you guys just wanted to eat something expensive."

Qin Luanyu smiled and began to reason with Li Zhuangsheng: "That's true most of the time, isn't it? Look, food is all about color, aroma, and taste, right?"

Li Zhuangsheng nodded without suspicion: "That's right."

"In fact, many wealthy people are only interested in the superficial aspects of food, since that's where the price and class are most easily discerned. The taste is secondary. This applies not only to expensive Western and French restaurants, but also to many Chinese restaurants. Many expensive Chinese dishes involve countless complicated procedures... which is also a form of appearance."

"Oh, oh, oh!" Li Zhuangsheng nodded vigorously, indicating that he had learned something, but he still didn't quite understand. "You're telling me all this..."

“What I want to tell you is that having money is just a normal attribute. As human beings, we are no different. Also, I came to eat at the wonton shop not to accommodate you, but because I really don’t mind eating at roadside stalls. I hope you understand this.”

Qin Luanyu stared into Li Zhuangsheng's eyes, speaking each word clearly.

"Oh, I understand..."

"Of course, what I really hope you can treat me as an equal, not some superior person. I can sense that although we had a pleasant conversation, you still have some reservations in your heart."

Qin Luanyu remained outspoken, her cheeks puffed out slightly, her words seemingly tinged with resentment.

As if his less-than-honest thoughts had been exposed, Li Zhuangsheng scratched his face with some shame, as if he had done something to wrong Qin Luanyu.

“If you hadn’t driven over in a Ferrari… I probably wouldn’t be in this situation now,” Li Zhuangsheng muttered.

If Qin Luanyu had simply taken a bus from Nanjing or called a rideshare, it wouldn't have inspired such fear in people.

"Because the real me is a rich man, I can drive a Ferrari, why would I pretend to be poor? I thought it would be interesting to come see you in a Ferrari, maybe I could even play a trick on you, so I came in a Ferrari. But I don't want you to feel alienated from me because of this. We are all human beings, there is no reproductive barrier!"

"I...I understand..."

Qin Luanyu raised an eyebrow, eager to try: "You don't seem to believe me? How about we have one now and see?"

Li Zhuangsheng's face turned bright red instantly: "What nonsense are you spouting? You're getting more and more frivolous!"

"Haha, just trying to lighten the mood. Actually, I wanted to show you my most authentic self. I don't want to pretend or act fake in front of you. You can't pretend forever, so I might as well be real from the start! I can drive a Ferrari, I can happily climb the first mountain with you, and I can eat wontons at this small, run-down shop with so-so hygiene. These are all my true feelings. You don't need to distance yourself from me just because I'm rich, and you don't need to feel like I'm accommodating you just because I eat at a roadside stall. This is who I am, and I hope you can get used to it soon and come to like me as I am."

Li Zhuangsheng listened blankly, while Qin Luanyu smiled with confidence and openness, like the clear sky and bright moon, like the bright and sunny spring day after the gloom has been swept away.

"Oh, oh oh..."

Li Zhuangsheng was at a loss for words and could only nod repeatedly. He thought to himself, "Qin Luanyu's 'like' must refer to the liking between friends, so I actually quite like Qin Luanyu."

After eating wontons, the two drove to another mountain, Duliang Mountain, and climbed up to Duliang Pavilion. They chatted and laughed all the way, and that last layer of distance seemed to gradually melt away without them even realizing it.

Arriving in front of the tall and majestic Duliang Pavilion, Qin Luanyu clicked her tongue and asked Li Zhuangsheng to take her picture:

"This building looks nice; it reminds me of the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan. I've been there before."

"It certainly can't compare to the Yellow Crane Tower," Li Zhuangsheng laughed. "The Yellow Crane Tower is so famous; it overlooks the town and the clouds and mist from above!"

"Actually, it's not that great. They're both built with reinforced concrete. The Yellow Crane Tower is 51 meters tall, and your Duliang Pavilion is 47 meters. Both have a floor area of ​​over 3000 square meters, so they're about the same size. In fact, the Yellow Crane Tower isn't even as tall as your Duliang Pavilion. The Yellow Crane Tower sits atop Snake Mountain, which is 61 meters above sea level, while this Yangda Mountain you're standing on is only 108 meters. Tsk tsk tsk, it's really inferior to the Duliang Pavilion." Qin Luanyu laughed as she spoke, patting Li Zhuangsheng's shoulder forcefully. "Actually, what your Duliang Pavilion lacks is cultural depth. Keep it up, become a Platinum Master, and let the reputation of the Duliang Pavilion surpass that of the mere Yellow Crane Tower soon!"

Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but complain: "Do you mean that if I become a Platinum God, I can surpass Li Bai and Cui Hao?"

Qin Luanyu gave a disdainful laugh, then turned serious and coughed, saying, "You're hopeless! You don't even dare to think about it? As Confucius once said, 'Those who lack strength give up halfway.' Now, you draw! Keep going, I believe in you!"

"Huh? Really? You really believe I can surpass Li Bai?"

"Of course I don't believe it. I was just saying it offhand." Qin Luanyu dropped the pretense, rolled her eyes, and seriously scorned him. "You can surpass Li Bai, but you'd be better off believing I can surpass Bolt. At least the difference between me and him is less than three seconds, while the difference between you and Li Bai is about three light-years."

Li Zhuangsheng's lips twitched. If the other party were Li Xiuyu, he would be fighting with her right now.

However, even if she were not Li Xiuyu, Li Zhuangsheng would still have this strong impulse.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it. It wasn't because she was rich and didn't dare to, but because the other person had experience.

Li Zhuangsheng glanced at the other person's round and plump thighs, and then remembered being choked last night, so he decisively gave up the idea.

It's not that I'm afraid I can't beat you, but I'm a magnanimous person and won't stoop to your level!
The two strolled around the Duliang Pavilion, saw a few scattered pedestrians, and took a few more photos.

"I thought you were the same height as me, but I didn't expect you to be a little shorter than me."

Li Zhuangsheng stared at the two smiling men in the photo and grinned mockingly.

"What are you so smug about? Do you believe I'll wear high-heeled riding boots tomorrow?"

Qin Luanyu glared at Li Zhuangsheng and kicked his butt.

"How can you play in high heels?"

"Do you think I'm a loser like you? I can still run faster than you even in high heels!"

"Hmph, I don't believe it!"

"Shall we make a bet?"

On a spring evening, the two playfully wrestled their way down the mountain. The sky grew increasingly somber, with the moon appearing and disappearing in the distance.

"A dream at the foot of Xiaofu Mountain in one night, the water like jade pendants, the moon like a lapel." Walking to the car, Qin Luanyu looked at the tall buildings on the mountain and suddenly sighed softly, "Today went by so fast. Fortunately, there is still tomorrow."

"Hmm, where do you want to go tomorrow? I feel like there's not much to do. Zhang Qixiang said Tianquan Lake is quite interesting, how about we go there tomorrow..."

"You said before that you didn't officially have sex with her, which means you did it informally?"

Qin Luanyu suddenly asked a question. (End of this chapter)
