Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 2 I was really awesome back then

Lin Ruoxi, this inconspicuous girl changed Xue Rui's life. He had seen this girl in his dreams countless times.

But they are all nightmares.

Xue Rui remembers it very clearly, it was the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2012, August th in the lunar calendar.

Xue Rui sneaked out of the dormitory to surf the Internet as if he was familiar with the route. In the moonlight, his figure was agile and he moved quickly along the wall without making any sound. Walking along the wall could avoid the attention of surveillance and patrolling teachers.

However, just as he went around the teaching building, a figure fell from the sky.

Lin Ruoxi, this thin girl who never dared to look up and speak, actually jumped down from the roof of Houde Building and fell face up in front of Xue Rui.

Lin Ruoxi had delicate features, a thin face, pale lips, and big eyes that were slightly sunken in her eye sockets. She still had her eyes open after landing, and happened to look Xue Rui in the eye.

The moonlight was like snow, and the night was as bright as day. Xue Rui saw it clearly. The full moon was reflected in the pool of blood, turning into a scarlet blood moon.

That was the first time Xue Rui saw the girl's face clearly, and also the last time.

It was this sad and strange scene that later became Xue Rui's nightmare.

So much so that he gave up the habit of playing games all night long in the last two years of high school. The only way to avoid thinking about it as much as possible was to keep learning boring knowledge and make his brain numb.

Lin Ruoxi's jump, by chance, allowed Xue Rui to be admitted to a top university.

Of course, it also left a lifelong shadow.

……

"My name is Lin Ruoxi..."

Lin Ruoxi's face turned red, her knuckles tightly grasped the wide corner of her school uniform, and her body trembled slightly.

Xue Rui frowned slightly and shouted to the male student who was making a fuss, "You're hard of hearing at such a young age? I can hear everything from where I'm standing here!"

The boys in the class suddenly became quiet.

Xue Xiaying rarely criticized Xue Rui, but just said to Lin Ruoxi gently:

"Be more confident in the future. These are all your classmates. They are just naughty and have no ill intentions."

Lin Ruoxi nodded and buried her head deeper.

……

Soon, the self-introduction session ended and the bell rang.

"Let's go to the bathroom and light a forget-me-not." Qiu Mengze jumped up, put his arm around Xue Rui's shoulders and whispered.

That's a "secret code" for lighting a cigarette.

"Go away, I'm annoyed." Xue Rui pushed Qiu Mengze away angrily.

"The more annoyed you are, the more you should light one." Qiu Mengze suddenly felt that Xue Rui had changed.

But he couldn't tell what had changed, so he reached out and touched Xue Rui's trouser pocket.

"What the hell are you doing."

The sports school uniform pants were slippery, and when he put his hands into his pockets it felt like someone was touching his legs. This made Xue Rui feel goosebumps all over, and he subconsciously wanted to give Qiu Mengze a hand.

Watching Qiu Mengze take out cigarettes and lighters from his pocket, Xue Rui pulled up his pants vigilantly.

"I'll buy it next time." Qiu Mengze smiled and took the others to the toilet.

Xue Rui watched speechlessly as the group of people left with their arms around each other's shoulders.

The motivation of his childhood friend for smoking was very pure. Qiu Mengze thought it was cool to smoke a cigarette in front of girls. In short, it was purely to show off.

Xue Rui looked at the men's restroom from afar from the back door of the classroom. Qiu Mengze was walking back and forth in front of the door of the men's restroom with a cigarette in his mouth. From time to time, he poked his head out to look around, and when he saw a strange figure, he quickly retracted his head.

Qiu Mengze was afraid of being seen by the teacher, and also afraid that the female classmates who went to the girls' restroom would not see him.

However, he was completely unaware that his furtive and stealthy posture was no different from that of a thief picking a lock.

"Damn idiot." Xue Rui cursed. It was so damn real. He was sure that he had returned to high school.

He thought that he might die suddenly in another world, and his parents would probably be very sad.

But then he thought again, the place of sudden death was the club, which was not a very suitable location.

Moreover, because he has a lot of social engagements in the business world and often pays for various clients, his membership basically consumes hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. He is considered a top-level VVIP. If he is sick, the club will visit him at home, and if he dies, they will send a luxurious flower basket.

Even if he came back to life now, it is highly likely that no one would listen to his explanation. His image was completely destroyed the moment he fell into a coma. "If he is so socially dead, then it is better not to save him. It is good to be reborn."

Xue Rui quickly accepted the fact that he was reborn;
However, his current primary goal is to completely eradicate the nightmare of Lin Ruoxi from his life, otherwise he will not be able to sleep or eat.

"The one who tied the bell must untie it." Xue Rui muttered to himself, picked up a chair with one hand and walked to Lin Ruoxi, saying, "Lin Ruoxi."

Lin Ruoxi was stunned. She carefully raised her head and secretly looked at the tall and strong male classmate in front of her through her bangs.

"Lin Ruoxi, why didn't you agree when I asked you to?" Xue Rui flipped the chair over in front of Lin Ruoxi with a bang and sat on it.

Xue Rui thought that this kind of girl was not isolated, but she closed herself off, so it would take a lot of effort to find out the reason why she committed suicide.

"I...I..." Lin Ruoxi's body began to tremble.

She had known Xue Rui for a long time, but she never had a good impression of him.

For example, he was criticized by the whole school for breaking the school backboard while dunking basketball;

Use the lights in the dormitory building to make a heart shape to chase the campus beauty;
During the break, we replaced the radio gymnastics with love songs...

In short, no matter whether they are men or women, no one will not be scared when being targeted by Xue Rui.

Now, this unruly boy came to her, and she couldn't understand why.

"Brother Rui, why are you looking for her if you don't go look for Gu Muxue?" asked a short boy with black-framed glasses.

"Who is Gu Muxue?" Xue Rui remembered it as soon as he said this.

That was the girl he had been pursuing from junior high school to high school. He did so many crazy things for her, but in the end he still failed to get her.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, this name is not as memorable as Lin Ruoxi's. He even forgot what it looks like.

Come to think of it, Lin Ruoxi often appeared in his dreams in the image of Sadako, and the name Gu Muxue was gradually forgotten since he went to college.

"This is the girl I've been pursuing for many years, the most beautiful school girl in the world." Xue Rui asked and answered himself. He didn't want anyone to notice that there was something wrong with him.

"Xue Rui, why don't you go to Class 1 to find Gu Muxue?" Qiu Mengze thought he had completed his recess task in a cool manner, and the female classmates around him had a deeper impression of him.

"Why, do I have to find Gu Muxue?"

"It's only necessary for a few minutes between classes? She looks like a ginseng fruit? Can you increase your lifespan just by smelling it?"

Xue Rui finally couldn't help but ask a series of questions, which attracted many surprised looks.

Why does it seem like everyone is waiting for him to find Gu Muxue?

Now that he is reborn, he will definitely not be a bootlicker anymore. As the saying goes... Feiyangyang follows the dog.

"I don't care about that." Qiu Mengze didn't bother to care about what Xue Rui was going to do. He took out fifty yuan and stuffed it into Xue Rui's pocket.
"You bought a small cake and milk tea for Gu Muxue this morning. This is the money she asked me to pass on to you just now."

“How much did I spend?”

"Forgot, maybe more than 20."

"I think men should be loyal and not give up halfway." Xue Rui put the money into his trouser pocket.

He suddenly felt that he might not have been completely devoted to her back then, and it was possible that he was sticking to Gu Muxue just to get kickbacks.

No wonder he always had the impression that he always treated his classmates to the canteen and his pocket money seemed to be endless. It turned out that he could make money here.

"Dingling bell~"

The bell rang and the students returned to their seats somewhat disappointed.

But no one noticed that Lin Ruoxi's hands, which had turned white from clenching, loosened.

She was glad that Qiu Mengze and the others helped her delay time, but when she thought that Xue Rui was notoriously persistent and would most likely come to find her again, she couldn't help but become nervous again.

This was the last class of the morning. The physics teacher was a little old man in his fifties or sixties. The stubble on his mouth was thicker than the hair on his head. He was obviously an experienced teacher.

But as Xue Rui listened, he began to feel sleepy again. He had some impression of each symbol, but when put together they sounded like a dream-inducing talisman.

"I was really awesome back then. I could learn even this kind of stuff."

Xue Rui praised himself a lot in his heart, and then fell asleep peacefully.

The scene of sudden death is still vivid in his mind. Now that he has a chance to live again, he cannot work so hard anymore. Xue Rui especially cherishes his sleep time.
