After rebirth, they all moved into my house.

The preparatory bell rang, and the students outside basically returned to the classroom. The next class was a class meeting, and we listened to the head teacher, Lao Chen, announce some things.

Old Chen quickly walked up to the podium, and as soon as the bell rang, he announced the start of the class meeting.

"I have something to say briefly. There's a blackboard newspaper competition next Monday. Classes that do well can get extra points. You can come up with your own theme, or even the Mid-Autumn Festival theme. I'd like to ask two students to take charge of this. During the class's self-introductions, who were the students who said they were good at painting? Anyone volunteer?"

No response.

This is normal. No one likes to show off in such matters. Humility is a virtue. At such times, they will show more of their low-keyness and leave opportunities to those who are more capable.

Of course, the same thing happened to Lu Yuan, but he felt somewhat at ease. After all, he had not mentioned in his self-introduction at the beginning of the school year that he could draw, so this matter had nothing to do with him.

Even if students have special talents in painting, they will not jump out to say that they can do it. They instinctively think that the teacher still remembers their talents, but they don’t want to show it because it is troublesome. It is better to wait and see how the teacher calls out their names, and whoever is called will just consider themselves unlucky.

Lao Chen looked around and saw that almost every student had their heads down. He was not surprised by this and could only call on students to do it.

"If no one raises their hand, I'll be the one to choose. I think you all have no objection, right?"

The response was silence. Even if there were opinions, they would not speak out at this time.

"If you don't answer, I'll take it as your consent, then..."

Old Chen showed a fox-like smile and whispered:

"Xu Ruolin and Lu Yuan."

41. Blackboard Newspaper

The sunlight outside the window shines on the tables in the classroom, and the breeze blows, and the leaves seem to be clapping their hands in applause.

The head teacher's words seemed to be a little unexpected to the students, because Lu Yuan's name was familiar, while Xu Ruolin's name was familiar yet unfamiliar.

But no matter who it is, it seems that no one has mentioned having painting skills in their self-introduction.

Lu Yuan was a little dumbfounded. Many eyes were directed towards him, but that was not the key point. The key point was that the next second, all eyes shifted to the girl.

Xu Ruolin

As the top student in the grade, her classmates kept their distance from her.

"Teacher, can I ask why you chose me and Xu Ruolin?" Lu Yuan raised his hand and asked.

"Liu Jingyi, the cultural and entertainment committee member, happened to be sick and on leave today, so time is a bit tight. I also believe in you. One of you is the top student in the grade, and the other is the second. This is a combination that no other class can offer. You will be able to complete this task smoothly, right?"

It went very smoothly, you big-headed ghost?

Lu Yuan couldn't help but hold his forehead and complain, but he couldn't jump out and say his opinions at this time. Old Chen had just said that it was assumed that he had no opinions. He never thought that this would point out to him.

Realizing that Lao Chen was looking at him with trust, Lu Yuan forced a smile.

Many people said that they were a little confused about the class teacher's actions, but to put it bluntly, the quality of the blackboard newspaper and the evaluation it received had little to do with them. Compared with the unfinished blackboard newspaper, the students cared more about the combination of Lu Yuan and Xu Ruolin.

"The combination of the first and second in grade!"

"As for the copywriting, I guess I don't have to worry about it."

"But that's chalk writing and graffiti. Can the two of them handle it?"

"Who knows? It's none of our business anyway."

Indeed, it is none of their business. Most people would think that the person who is picked to draw the blackboard newspaper is unlucky. They would care only because the people picked are the freshman representative and the top two students in the grade.

However, for Lu Yuan, this may be an opportunity.

He and Xu Ruolin embarked on a new journey.

After school, the two who had no pressure to study in the evening naturally stayed in the classroom on their own initiative, while the others chose to go to the sports field to exercise or visit the club activities of their seniors.

Lu Yuan and Xu Ruolin sat quite far away from each other, one in the second to last row of the first group, and the other in the first to last row of the third group.

In the empty classroom, the sunset sunlight shines on the blackboard at the back of the classroom, reflecting white light.

The two of them were doing their homework. The classroom was very quiet, with only the sound of pens scratching across paper. No one broke the silent atmosphere.

This is the tranquility that belongs to Xu Ruolin. When I am with her, I can calm down at any time.

Lu Yuan secretly glanced at Xu Ruolin, but unexpectedly, as soon as he turned his head, Xu Ruolin also looked up at him.

"Student Lu Yuan doesn't have to work today?"

"……want."

Xu Ruolin's voice came, Lu Yuan recalled the agreement with Gu Jiuyi to take her to study, and replied.

"I see. If you're busy, I can handle the blackboard newspaper."

"No, that won't work. Since we've been assigned this job, let's do it together. Besides, we're classmates, so there's no need to add 'classmate' after my name. Just call me Lu Yuan."

She is still the same. If a classmate assigned to the same job by her does not do it or does it poorly, Xu Ruolin will always take care of the follow-up.

"But what about your part-time job?"

"We can still spare half an hour."

After all, we agreed to meet at seven o'clock, so I might as well eat some bread on the way to Gu Jiuyi's house.

Xu Ruolin glanced at Lu Yuan.

"You're not thinking of going there without having dinner, are you?" She ruthlessly exposed Lu Yuan's thoughts.

“…No, there are staff meals.”

There are ten thousand reasons to want to be with a girl, just make up one.

Xu Ruolin remained silent.

"What do you think, Lu Yuan?"

"It's not clear yet."

Lu Yuan stood up and looked at the blackboard at the back of the classroom. It was empty, leaving plenty of room for creativity.

"Actually, I've studied painting. So I'll do the painting, and you'll be in charge of the copywriting?"

"Don't look down on me, I want to draw with you too."

Of course Lu Yuan knew that Xu Ruolin could paint and play the piano, but he felt that he could do the graffiti-like work on the blackboard newspaper.

"Okay, I'll take care of the left side, and you take care of the right side. Let me think about the theme... I got it!"

Xu Ruolin quickly drew a sketch of the blackboard newspaper on the draft and wrote the theme on it.

"Can you draw like mine?"

She handed a sketch to Lu Yuan, who took it and opened his mouth.

"If this is to be realized, the degree of completion will be very high, right?"

"No, isn't this simple?"

Xu Ruolin blinked her eyes, as if she didn't think what she drew was difficult to realize.

Although it wasn't the first day Lu Yuan knew Xu Ruolin, he still thought she was quite Versailles...

"Then I'll hold your thighs tight." Lu Yuan knew he couldn't keep up, so he had to hold Xu Ruolin's thighs tight, both literally and in a deeper sense.

"Then you can pass me something next to me."

"it is good."

Lu Yuan went to the bathroom first, thinking of starting work after returning.

But when he returned to the classroom, he saw the girl. The classroom under the setting sun, with the sunlight pouring down, was breathtakingly beautiful.

He had read about this in other novels before. The hero returned to the classroom after playing ball and met the girl who was writing a newspaper on the blackboard. He did not regret his dream.

But he knew that he couldn't stand by her side yet.

"I am back."

"You're back? I took a look and it seems that we don't have enough materials. How about we do it next time?" Xu Ruolin thought about making an oil painting, but that would require a lot of time and energy. Fortunately, it was not a difficult task for her.

"How do you want to draw it?"

"It would be better if you paint it on."

Lu Yuan frowned.

"There's no need to be so troublesome. Isn't there a club presentation next week? By then, what you worked so hard on will be covered up by the posters of the seniors in the second year of high school." It's not that he mind the trouble, but he knows that after this blackboard newspaper is finished, it will soon be erased and the next one will be made.

After all, there is a monthly exam before National Day. It is the first monthly exam in commemoration of high school and the beginning of a nightmare.

"It's okay. The blackboard is so big, they can only stick it around."

"That's fine, as long as we aren't the ones wiping out the blackboard next time."

"Why do you say that we are causing trouble to others?" Xu Ruolin said coquettishly.

"It's because the cultural and entertainment committee member took a day off today that Old Chen arrested us. We must give her a big gift."

"I'm the one doing the work."

"What's wrong? Can't I just cheer you up as the atmosphere support?"

Who asked Xu Ruolin to make such a complicated blackboard newspaper? Lu Yuan said with a sense of righteousness that he wanted to slack off.

42. So

"Oh." Xu Ruolin did not refute and nodded to agree with Lu Yuan's slacking off.

In fact, this was the case with Xu Ruolin in her previous life when she was in the first year of high school. Her classmates treated her as a nobody, and only her first place in the school gave her a little fame.

In addition, when I was in the first year of high school, the study pressure was not that great, and it was an ordinary class, so it was rare for me to ask classmates questions. Even if there were any, I would ask the familiar classmates with good grades.

So whenever she quietly cleaned up the place and dealt with the chalk on the podium, these details that were difficult for people around her to notice were almost impossible to get recognition from people around her, after all, they took it for granted.

In fact, every student has the obligation to do this, but they think, "Since others have done it, I don't have to do it." So sometimes, they don't handle their own work well.

"I'm just kidding. Although I can't draw, you can tell me what tools you need and I'll go buy them." Lu Yuan subconsciously thought she was the Xu Ruolin he had known for three years, so he made a joke.

However, the other person was Xu Ruolin from three years ago, the Xu Ruolin he had just met.

"Is that so? Then buy some paints and a drawing board, and..." She made a list and handed it to Lu Yuan, "I'll add you as a friend and transfer the money to you later."

"it is good."

Neither of them suggested "Let's go buy it together". They were just classmates who had just met and were not that familiar with each other yet.

At least that's what Lu Yuan thought.

After Lu Yuan packed up the list, he said goodbye to Xu Ruolin.

Xu Ruolin likes to read in the classroom before leaving, as he still has to go to work.

"If you work, you should also take care of your health and not overwork yourself."

"The next sentence is 'Learning is important', right?"

"Don't interrupt me, but studying is important."

"I know."

At this time, my ex-girlfriend only knew about studying.

After returning home, Lu Yuan hurriedly had dinner and went to Gu Jiuyi's house.

Why doesn’t Gu Jiuyi, who is so rich, buy a house near No. 1 Middle School?

The one and a half hour commuting every day was enough for him to play several games.

Arriving at the familiar courtyard, the butler had obviously been waiting for a long time.

I pressed the familiar number, changed into my indoor shoes, and walked into the living room.

Well, she's not here.

I sent her a message to see if she had fallen asleep again and didn't reply.

But this time, Gu Jiuyi replied immediately.

[Come to my room.]

……

Lu Yuan looked at the information of the person who made the remarks, and clicked on the detailed information to see that it was indeed Gu Jiuyi himself.

and so…

I'm going into a girl's room again?!
