Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

"Guess?" Qin Luanyu raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on her lips. "Take a guess..."

“I really can’t guess… Please don’t scare me…” Li Zhuangsheng was sweating.

Qin Luanyu's smile turned mischievous: "Actually, I have one last question for you."

"what is the problem……"

"What do you think of Hu Mengdie? You still haven't told me what happened between you two... Could it be that Hu Mengdie wanted to go back to you, and you rejected her?"

Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback.

"I was right after all." Qin Luanyu sighed inexplicably upon seeing this.

Li Zhuangsheng stared speechlessly at the heavens, unsure whether to laugh or cry: "How come you're just like Li Xiuyu..."

"It seems you two siblings have a really good relationship. You've never avoided her before. This time you're only avoiding her because you're afraid of revealing Sister Xie's privacy."

"After all, they are siblings."

"So she knows the reason, huh? She didn't say anything, so it seems she's definitely on your side!"

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his eyes and gently pursed his lips: "What do you want to say..."

"No, it's just that I feel it's really good that your sister doesn't care about these things... yeah, it's actually quite nice, hehe... I'll say it, I'll say it!"

"Just say what..."

Qin Luanyu spoke in a calm, condescending tone, even with a hint of provocation: "Why do you never seem to care about Hu Mengdie, and why does your sister seem indifferent as well...? Because it's completely over between you two. I bet Hu Mengdie had a boyfriend in high school?"

Li Zhuangsheng's face flushed slightly: "Yes... actually, uh... she hasn't even started dating yet..."

Qin Luanyu recalled that when they first met, she mistakenly thought that the two had been dating since high school... At that time, Li Zhuangsheng's expression was very strange.

It wasn't a happy look at all; it was more like a look of shame.

He was angry.

However, she herself turned into a clown the moment she confessed her feelings, and couldn't control her emotions, so she didn't think much of it.

But she later figured it out. Li Zhuangsheng's behavior was now very unusual; he showed Hu Mengdie a kind of "it's none of my business" concern.

He cared about Hu Mengdie, but only superficially, as if she were just a stranger in trouble.

But can the relationship between a husband and wife be so easily severed?

Hu Mengdie was definitely born in Lizhuang's prime. Any boy who woke up one day to find himself married to a beautiful girl like Hu Mengdie would be overjoyed. At the very least, his first instinct would be to get close to her.

Li Zhuangsheng will probably go through this stage as well.

Unless, of course, Hu Mengdie has a boyfriend. Under her persistent questioning, Zhang Qixiang recounted the entire story of the class reunion and even sent her a video link.

Actually, it's no use for Zhang Qixiang to keep it from Qin Luanyu. If Qin Luanyu has an ex, Li Zhuangsheng will find out eventually. It's better to give her a heads-up in advance.

After watching the video, Qin Luanyu felt nothing but "as expected," and instead felt like laughing. It was truly a stroke of luck.

Before her second visit, her biggest worry was still Hu Mengdie. After all, Li Zhuangsheng and she had been husband and wife, and even though they were divorced, Hu Mengdie's position in Li Zhuangsheng's heart must still be extraordinary.

Who knew that their biggest rival would self-destruct?

In her mind, Hu Mengdie must have had a boyfriend in high school, which is why she found it hard to accept the sudden change and her husband, and even did some very resolute things. However, this alone cannot explain Li Zhuangsheng and Hu Mengdie's current attitude towards each other.

Although she hadn't met Hu Mengdie many times during this trip, Qin Luanyu had already noticed the hostility in Hu Mengdie's eyes.

Actually, I was wary when I came last time, but this time it was more straightforward and less blatant.

She seemed to care a lot about Li Zhuangsheng, but Li Zhuangsheng didn't like her... It was so absurd that it was as if their souls had been swapped.

Then there's only one explanation.

“But she likes you now,” Qin Luanyu said lightly. “I can tell.”

"Heh, heh..." Li Zhuangsheng chuckled dryly, "You, you've misunderstood, haha..."

Qin Luanyu smiled faintly: "Let's have a frank chat. You don't need to cover for her. Hu Mengdie probably thinks I'm seducing you now. She'll come looking for me sooner or later."

Li Zhuangsheng licked his lips, about to speak, when Qin Luanyu continued, "If you're going to keep hiding things, then don't say anything. If you want to chat with me and speak your mind as usual, then don't cover for anyone. At least I hope that I have the highest authority with you."

“She might like me a little, but I don’t think it’s liking.” Li Zhuangsheng took a deep breath and slowly shook his head.

"So, she rejected you at first, but now she wants to go back to you?" Qin Luanyu said casually. "Actually, I think it's quite normal. She didn't know you at first, but after spending more time with you, she developed feelings for you. Seriously though, you're quite outstanding, so it's not surprising that she likes you. Her high school boyfriend might already be married by now, let alone the fact that you said she hasn't even started dating yet."

"It's not because of that... She, she didn't actually do anything wrong... She doesn't like me, so whatever she does is perfectly normal..."

"But she just happened to fall for you, so her previous rejection and dislike of you are absolutely unforgivable," Qin Luanyu sighed softly and replied calmly.

Li Zhuangsheng was already immune to Qin Luanyu's ability to guess his thoughts. He even suspected that Li Xiuyu was the one who secretly spoiled things for her, since that guy was greedy for money and wouldn't hesitate to "betray" his own brother for money.

"Right, haha, I also think my thoughts are a bit crazy..."

"Actually, bickering lovers are a common plot in anime, but the premise is that it absolutely cannot be a two-male-one-female setup, especially the female lead absolutely cannot speak ill of the male lead because of another boy. But you don't even like Koizaki Momo from 'Otaku Girl'."

"I thought you were going to talk about Taiga Aisaka from 'Toradora!'..."

"Aside from the premise that Taiga Aisaka has liked other boys, you don't like her character as a whole, do you? Moreover, even if the female lead starts to like other boys, it's based on the premise that the male lead also has a girl he likes, and he has to remain pure in body. But even so, the audience doesn't like this kind of female lead."

"That's not necessarily true. Have you seen the recently released 'The Loser'? That blue-haired guy who licked someone else's straw is surprisingly popular... It proves that audiences still really like that kind of thing. Maybe my thinking is still stuck ten years ago... People are much more open-minded now; they wouldn't even mind indirectly French kissing a woman's ex-boyfriend." (End of Chapter)
