Who wants to be a male model after being reborn? I want to be a male god.

Chapter 379 Those Unfulfilled Wishes
Gu Xingruo's eyes lit up, and she immediately straightened her clothes and solemnly shook Xu Wen's hand: "Hello, Senior Xu, I'm Gu Xingruo, the new transfer student. Please give me your guidance."

Then her expression suddenly changed and she was filled with a smirk.

Gu Xingruo looked around first, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to this side, she suddenly reached out her hand: "By the way, senior, can you take me to visit the campus? Especially your dormitory?"

Xu Wen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He took a step back and said seriously, "My classmate, your intention is too obvious."

"So what? Anyway, you are my senior now, so please take good care of me in school." Gu Xingruo took Xu Wen's arm and shook her head proudly.

Xu Wen looked at her high spirits and suddenly remembered the "surprise" that the eldest lady had mentioned before.

It turns out that it was not just about successfully transferring to another school. She also wanted to use this method to add some special memories to their college life.

"Let's go, Junior Sister Gu, I'll take you to see our campus." Xu Wen took her hand.

They walked slowly along the main campus road, and Gu Xingruo was curious about everything like a real freshman.

Although she had been to Linjiang University many times before, this time it was as if she had never been there before.

She took Xu Wen to stop in front of the display boards of various colleges, take pictures by the fountain, and look up at the towering buildings in front of the library.

"Actually, I have secretly planned the date route a long time ago." Gu Xingruo admitted in a low voice.

For a long time, she always fantasized about walking on campus with Xu Wen one day.

Just like many ordinary college couples.

The two of them didn't need to think about anything but enjoying their hard-earned youth.

Now this wish has finally come true.

Xu Wen raised his eyebrows: "So you have been planning this for a long time?"

"Of course! In order to be able to transfer here a year early, I took four online courses last semester and studied until the early morning every day!" Gu Xingruo proudly puffed out her non-existent chest.

She suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Of course, and my dad also used some special methods?"

Xu Wen smiled helplessly: "Okay, money ability."

Gu Xingruo didn't understand and asked in confusion: "What superpower?"

Xu Wen rubbed his fingers together and said, "It's the ability of money, or money ability for short."

Gu Xingruo burst out laughing after hearing this.

She waved her hands: "Don't make a fuss. Anyway, my dad has too much money and doesn't know where to spend it. Donating it to education is also a good deed."

They walked along the boulevard towards the administrative building, and Gu Xingruo began to talk incessantly about the reasons why she came back early.

It turned out that she had already planned to give Xu Wen a surprise on his birthday, so she ended her trip early and asked Cao Yanan to help cover for her.

"You know, I thought about you every day during those days on the island, especially when I saw the fluorescent sea, I thought, how nice it would be if you could see it too." Gu Xingruo suddenly stopped and turned to face Xu Wen.

Xu Wen stared into her sparkling eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in his chest.

He remembered that during the video call, Gu Xingruo excitedly described the glowing sea water, saying that it looked like scattered stars.

"Don't you see it now? And it's even more beautiful than in the video." Xu Wen said softly, reaching out to brush away a fallen leaf from her shoulder.

Gu Xingruo's face turned even redder. She lowered her head and took out an exquisite wooden box from her bag: "This is your birthday present. I wanted to give it to you tomorrow."

Xu Wen took the box and opened it to find a hand-woven bracelet with a few small shells and a dark blue stone.

"I picked this up on the beach. The locals say that the blue stone can bring good luck. I weave it every night on the balcony of the B&B. Yanan laughs and says I look like an old lady." Gu Xingruo's voice was soft.

Xu Wen carefully took out the bracelet. In the sunlight, the inner layer of the shell glowed with a pearl-like luster, and the blue stone was as deep as solidified sea water.

He noticed that each shell was carefully polished, with rounded edges that would not prick the hand.

"Help me put it on?" Xu Wen stretched out his wrist.

Gu Xingruo nodded and gently wrapped her slender fingers around his wrist.

Her fingertips were a little cold, but Xu Wen felt a warm sensation when she touched him.

After putting on the bracelet, she looked at it for a while with satisfaction: "It suits you very well."

"Thank you, I like it very much." Xu Wen said sincerely, and couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead.

His heart warmed and he pulled her into his arms.

There is a pleasant floral scent in Gu Xingruo's hair.

"I miss you every day, too." Xu Wen whispered in her ear.

Gu Xingruo trembled slightly in his arms, then raised her head: "Now, can Senior Xu Wen take your junior sister to complete the enrollment procedures?"

Xu Wen let her go with a smile: "Yes, Sister Gu."

They continued walking towards the administration building. Gu Xingruo suddenly remembered something and took out a stack of photos from her bag: "I almost forgot to show you these."

The photos show the scenery she took during her travels, with the date and location written on the back of each one, as well as a brief text.

Xu Wen flipped through the books, as if he had followed her footsteps and walked through every corner of Hai Province.

"This photo was taken at the observatory. I made a wish that night." Gu Xingruo said, pointing to a photo of the starry sky.

"What wish?" Xu Wen asked curiously.

Gu Xingruo shook her head mysteriously: "It won't work if you say it out loud."

She turned to the next one, "This is a shell wind chime I bought at the local market. I've already sent it home and I'll hang it up on your birthday."

Xu Wen noticed that there was a small "XW&GXR" mark in the corner of almost every photo.
Ever since Gu Xingruo turned around and found the mark left by Xu Wen on the school wall, she has regarded this string of letters as her unique signature.

It’s on the ring and on the photos, as if he wants to sign it all over the world.

This discovery warmed Xu Wen's heart. It turned out that even though they were thousands of miles apart, she always connected them in this way.

"By the way, I also brought you something. Open it and take a look." Gu Xingruo suddenly stopped and took out a small cloth bag from the side pocket of the suitcase.

Xu Wen untied the cloth bag, revealing an irregularly shaped dark brown stone with a smooth surface and a faint salty smell.

"Volcanic stone. Locals use it to make tea, saying it can add a special flavor." Gu Xingruo explained.

Xu Wen rubbed the stone in his palm. The rough touch reminded him of Gu Xingruo's promise to take him to see an active volcano.

This humble stone carries her thoughts from her journey and is more precious than any expensive gift.

"Thank you. I will keep it well." Xu Wen carefully put the stone away.

Gu Xingruo nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek: "Happy birthday, Xu Wen, although it's a day early, but I really can't wait."

After completing the formalities, Xu Wen held Gu Xingruo's hand and walked around the campus.

The setting sun stretched the shadows of the two people very long.

Xu Wen held Gu Xingruo's hand and walked on the way back to the dormitory.

Cheerful music was playing on the campus radio, and the laughter of freshmen could be heard in the distance.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to try our school cafeteria or eat out?" Xu Wen asked.

Gu Xingruo thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the cafeteria. I want to experience the life of an 'ordinary college couple'."

Xu Wen smiled and nodded: "Yes, Sister Gu." As they were walking towards the cafeteria, Gu Xingruo suddenly stopped and said, "Look!"

Xu Wen looked in the direction of her finger and saw a small forest on campus. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the leaves, casting golden spots on the ground.

"What's wrong?" Xu Wen asked in confusion.

Gu Xingruo's eyes sparkled: "That's a great place to take pictures! We can date there in the future!"

She excitedly took Xu Wen's hand and said, "I've already thought about it. We are going to participate in club activities together, stay up late in the library together, eat ice cream by the lake in the summer, and drink milk tea in the classroom in the winter."

Xu Wen watched her talking endlessly about planning their campus life, and a corner of his heart was gently touched.

Gu Xingruo always does this, using her unique enthusiasm and directness to pull him into a colorful world.

"Okay, we'll do all of these things together," Xu Wen promised softly.

Gu Xingruo suddenly quieted down and looked at Xu Wen seriously: "You know what? When I was in high school, I often imagined such a scene. We were like ordinary college lovers, walking hand in hand on campus, going to class together, and sharing the same meal in the cafeteria."

Her voice became smaller and smaller: "Sometimes when I think about this, I can't help but laugh. Yanan always says I'm like a fool."

Xu Wen pulled her close and rested his forehead against hers: "I like little fools like you."

Gu Xingruo blushed and gently pushed him: "Hey, we are in school now, be careful of the impact."

Xu Wen deliberately moved closer: "What's wrong? Isn't it normal for a senior to care about a junior's study and life?"

Gu Xingruo burst out laughing: "Senior Xu, you will be reported for sexual harassment if you do this."

They walked into the cafeteria laughing and joking, and Gu Xingruo looked around like a curious baby.

"Wow, your cafeteria is so big! It's much bigger than our school's!" She pointed to the window.

Just like when she was outside, it was clearly not her first time here, but she pretended it was.

Xu Wen looked in the direction of her finger: "The spicy hotpot tastes good, do you want anything else?"

"Yes! And that, that and that!" Gu Xingruo nodded repeatedly.

She pointed at almost half the cafeteria.

Xu Wen raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure you can finish it?"

Gu Xingruo said confidently: "Just try a little bit of everything. You'll help me eat the leftovers anyway."

Finally they found a seat with two large plates full of food.

Gu Xingruo couldn't wait to taste the spicy hot pot, and her eyes immediately narrowed into a line: "It's delicious! Much better than the one in our school!"

Seeing her satisfied look, Xu Wen couldn't help but reach out and wipe the sauce off the corner of her mouth: "Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

Gu Xingruo suddenly put down her chopsticks and looked at Xu Wen seriously: "I'm really happy."

"Because the food in the cafeteria is delicious?" Xu Wen deliberately teased.

"Because of all this, because I can experience this ordinary college life with you." Gu Xingruo looked around the noisy cafeteria.

She lowered her head and her voice became very soft: "Sometimes I wonder what would happen now if we hadn't met again after graduating from high school."

Xu Wen held her hand: "But we met, and now we are on the same campus."

He paused: "By the way, have you arranged your dormitory yet?"

Gu Xingruo's expression suddenly became cunning: "Of course, I specifically applied for off-campus accommodation."

Xu Wen was stunned: "Off campus? Where do you live?"

"Of course it's our villa. I can drive there anyway, so it's not too far." Gu Xingruo said as a matter of course.

She blinked: "Why, Senior Xu wants me to live in the dormitory?"

Xu Wen shook his head: "I'm just worried that it's too hard for you to go back and forth every day."

Gu Xingruo waved her hand: "It's not hard, it's not hard. Anyway, I don't plan to get up early every day."

She added with a smirk, "Besides, living off campus is so much freedom. I can see you whenever I want without having to follow the dormitory's curfew."

Xu Wen smiled helplessly: "You have never followed this rule before!"

Gu Xingruo said righteously: "That's called a reasonable leave!"

The eldest lady always has many reasons.

After dinner, they strolled around the campus.

The September evening breeze was slightly cool. Gu Xingruo moved closer to Xu Wen and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Look, the stars are out." She pointed to the sky.

Xu Wen looked up and saw the night sky dotted with stars.
He thought of the island starry sky that Gu Xingruo had shown him with a projector before, and suddenly felt that the scene before him was even more beautiful.

"It's much better than what's on the projector because it's real, and so are you," he said softly.

Gu Xingruo seemed to understand what he was saying and held his hand tightly: "I'll come find you on Monday morning to go to class together, okay?"

"Are you sure you can get up?" Xu Wen looked at her doubtfully.

Gu Xingruo vowed: "This time it's different! I'm motivated now!"

She pulled out her phone: "Tell me your class schedule on Monday. I want to go to class with you."

Xu Wen smiled and shook his head, but still sent her the schedule: "The first class is at 8 o'clock, don't oversleep again."

"Absolutely not! I'll set five alarms!" Gu Xingruo was full of confidence.

When they reached the school gate, Gu Xingruo reluctantly held Xu Wen's hand and said, "Are you really not going back with me today?"

Xu Wen kissed her forehead gently: "There will be a welcome event tomorrow, I will stay in the dormitory tonight."

He paused: "Besides, we need some time to adapt to this new way of getting along, don't we?"

Gu Xingruo pouted, but finally nodded: "Okay, see you tomorrow."

The eldest lady's eyes sparkled in the night. She stood on tiptoe and gave Xu Wen a light kiss on the lips.

Watching Gu Xingruo's car driving away, Xu Wen touched the bracelet on his wrist and took out the conch that could hear the sound of waves.

He put the conch to his ear, and the sound of the waves seemed to carry Gu Xingruo's laughter, making him smile unconsciously.

The street lights on campus lit up one by one, and Xu Wen turned and walked towards the dormitory.

His sophomore year had just begun, and his campus life seemed to have become more enriched.

just
While touching the bracelet, he also touched the necklace that he had hidden inside his clothes.

These two gifts came from two different people.

They all said their gifts would bring good luck.

Xu Wen smiled helplessly.

His subsequent university life would be too difficult.
