Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 8 Why are you running?
Xue Rui was walking on the way back to the dormitory. Many teenagers were playing basketball and screaming recklessly, causing many people to howl along with them...

This is the time when students are most relaxed, because most teachers have already gone off work, and it seems that the campus at this moment truly belongs to these students.

"Hehe." Qiu Mengze pursed his lips and winked at Xue Rui.

Xue Rui looked up and saw a couple in front of him, walking hand in hand, with extremely slow steps.

It was obvious that these two were a young couple who had just been together for a short time. They didn't know what to do at night, so they simply slowed down, hoping that the way back to the dormitory would be longer so that they could spend more time with each other.

It’s just the speed of the two of them...If there was a turtle standing by as a reference, it would probably be faster than the two of them.

Xue Rui looked at Qiu Mengze's mean expression and understood instantly.

Qiu Mengze meant to scare the couple.

Xue Rui touched his chin, lowered his body slightly, and rushed out with a sudden step. When he ran to the side of the boy, he suddenly patted his shoulder and kept shouting: "Fuck! Fuck! Run!"

"Run!" Qiu Mengze followed suit, as if there was a ferocious beast chasing him from behind.

The male student's adrenaline suddenly surged, and his body reacted faster than his brain. He quickly let go of his girlfriend's hand and subconsciously followed the two of them out, leaving his female companion disheveled in the wind.

After running for a distance, Xue Rui added with a smile: "If you don't go to the store soon, it will be closed!"

"Xue Rui! You bastard!" The male student finally realized that he was being fooled. He walked back angrily, but saw his sweetheart standing under the street light with a gloomy face and her fists clenched clenched tightly.

"Why did you shake off my hand just now?" the girl asked coldly.

"I...um...I thought the teacher..."

The boy thought for a long time but couldn't figure out why he should follow Xue Rui.

In fact, this is a human instinct. When seeing people running away, they will subconsciously follow them. Especially since Xue Rui even patted the boy's shoulder...

But this young boy naturally didn’t know this truth;

Even if he knew, the girl opposite would not let him explain.

Love is like this, boys just need to come up with different ways to make girls happy, but girls have a lot of things to consider.

……

"Hahaha, Xue Rui, didn't you see that kid's expression? It made me laugh to death!" Qiu Mengze panted heavily and handed Xue Rui a roll of change: "You just ran away with the money."

Xue Rui touched his trouser pocket and found that it was indeed his money.

"I don't know which idiot designed this clothes without even a zipper." Xue Rui cursed.

It’s obvious that students can only wear school uniforms, but the design is so unreasonable. The wide pockets will make things fall out if you run a little bit.

"I think it's stupid too." Qiu Mengze agreed.

……

"Hey, where are you going, Weasel?"

"Brother Rui, I'm going to play ball."

"Da Zhuang, why is your face swollen?"

"Don't mention it. This afternoon, an idiot smashed a hornet's nest with a basketball, and I was right there."

After an afternoon, Xue Rui gradually integrated the familiar yet unfamiliar names with the young faces of his classmates. Even if he couldn't call out their names, he could always remember their nicknames.

Walking in the dormitory corridor, Xue Rui thought back to the first day of his rebirth. He hadn't seen his family yet and wondered whether he should go home.

His home is not far from the school, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk there at most, but why doesn't he go to school as a day student?

He tried hard to recall what he thought when he was young, and finally came to a conclusion - school was more free.

Xue Rui's family conditions are very good, but his mother controls his pocket money very strictly, for fear that Xue Rui will develop any bad habits.

But it is different if you live on campus. Not only is there no one to urge you to go to bed at night, you can also sneak out to surf the Internet, and you feel more confident asking for pocket money.

Xue Rui was reborn at the age of sixteen. This body had little dependence on nicotine. He neither smoked nor surfed the Internet, and he did not need this so-called "freedom" now.

He was hesitating whether to apply for a day school. As he walked deeper and deeper, the familiar scene kept shocking Xue Rui's nerves.

The corridor was filled with the greasy smell of various low-quality spicy snacks, as well as the smell of steaming instant noodles mixed with stinky socks. Xue Rui felt nauseous.

Walking into dormitory 203, what caught my eye were four bunk beds, a pile of hot water bottles on the left, and no air conditioner above my head...

"Eight-person room? This is not a place for human beings to live!"

The poor environment of the dormitory strengthened Xue Rui's determination to go to school as a day student.

"Yibing, lend me your cell phone so I can call my mom." Xue Rui said to the big-faced boy next to him.

This was his roommate, who was fat and weighed at least 200 pounds, with an unusually large and round face, so he was nicknamed "Yiping".

At this time, Yibing was holding a Coolpad mobile phone and playing the popular Temple Run.

"It's almost time. The record will be broken soon." Yibing stared at the screen intently.

"Stop playing around." Xue Rui snatched the phone without any hesitation and called his mother Ren Qunfang.

"Stop! My score is almost higher than that of the students in the next dormitory!" Yibing angrily pounded the bed a few times.

As the phone rang, Xue Rui felt a little uneasy.

In his previous life, he almost never dared to call his mother on his own initiative, for fear of being urged to go on a blind date. However, now he is only a sophomore in high school and does not have to worry too much about this issue. Even so, he is still a little nervous.

"One cake."

Xue Rui was a little confused. How did his mother know whose phone this was? She even called out its nickname?

"Bullshit!"

"Are you crazy because of poverty? You want to win with just one piece of cake?"

"I had a four-cake card. If you hadn't picked a four-cake..."

……

Listening to the crisp and thick sound of mahjong tiles colliding, Xue Rui felt relieved instantly.

"Hello? Who is it?" Ren Qunfang's voice came from the phone.

"Mom, my name is Xiao Rui. I want to go to school as a day student. The school dormitory is too bad." Xue Rui said straight to the point.

"Then how did you live here last year? Why can others live here but you can't?" Ren Qunfang was a little impatient.

"Mom, I miss you and want to live at home." Xue Rui decided to play the emotional card.

"It's no use thinking about it. Your sister is in the third year of junior high school this year. Your return will affect her studies. Just stay in school honestly. If you want to eat something, just call mom and ask someone to bring it to you."

Xue Rui said unhappily, "How can we live in an eight-person room? There's not even an air conditioner. It's so hot. Can you bring me an air conditioner?"

"You're wishing. As soon as you call me, I get angry. It affects my luck. I'm hanging up now." Ren Qunfang hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy tone in his ears, Xue Rui looked hopeless.

Day school? No chance!

Xue Rui returned the phone to Yibing and suddenly found a lit cigarette in his left hand that he hadn't found out from somewhere.

He turned around and looked at Qiu Mengze, only to see Qiu Mengze sitting on the bed, puffing out cigarettes and saying, "Didn't you quit smoking? Why did you take it when I gave it to you?"

"Damn it, who noticed you stuffing something into my hand while I was on the phone?" Xue Rui laughed angrily.

It must have been Qiu Mengze who held it in his mouth, smacked it a few times, lit it, and then secretly stuffed it into his hand.

When a person is on the phone, the brain works at high speed and the body seems to be in a "trusted state". No matter what someone hands to them, they will subconsciously take it.

"It's grass, just smoke it, it's pure natural and pollution-free." Qiu Mengze didn't want Xue Rui to quit smoking, because then there would be no one to accompany him, so he wanted to drag Xue Rui into it.

The dormitory was filled with smoke. At this moment, Xue Rui noticed a male teacher standing outside the door, staring at him.
