1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 18 Reluctant

After losing face so much the day before yesterday, Meng Shulan thought this person would disappear for two days, but who knew that he didn't.

Come to think of it, Han Ning's uncle is the vice principal. He usually keeps a close eye on him and wouldn't let him do anything reckless.

But why doesn’t Vice Principal Liao care about Han Ning’s pursuit of her own affairs?
The whole class knew about it, and Meng Shulan felt that his uncle was also aware of it, but he acted as if nothing had happened.

Meng Shulan had never thought about this question before, but now she was a little confused.

Could it be that he wants me to study with Han Ning?
In his previous life, Han Ning was able to pass the college entrance examination with a satisfactory score, and his contribution was indeed significant. He had studied with him and often lent him his notes.

But at this juncture, if the purpose is just to study, the risk of gambling is too great.

After all, dating will have a greater impact on academic performance.

Meng Shulan couldn't figure it out and didn't think too much about it.

Never mind, they have nothing to do with each other now.

Meng Shulan took out her math book and continued her baseline review.

And diagonally behind her, Han Ning also returned to his seat.

He had no intention of studying and glanced at Meng Shulan with a gloomy look on his face.

The mark from the slap on his face that day had long since disappeared, but Han Ning still felt a faint pain.

Han Ning was already a 19-year-old adult, and he was slapped in the face by a girl in public. He was very angry.

But his uncle was unwilling to help him, saying that it was all his own fault.

He could have taken it slow, but he had to resort to these little tricks in secret, which pissed people off and wasted the foundation he had laid previously.

Yes, he pursued Meng Shulan, and his uncle agreed from the beginning.

She is the most beautiful girl in the school. She has good grades, is expected to get into college, and has a very good personality. Although her family is from the countryside, she has an older brother who is a soldier in the army.

Han Ning heard from his uncle that although Meng Chenggong's position in the army was not high, he was very capable and had made great contributions. The wife he married also had a good background and was very influential in the city's military region. It would be beneficial for them to become relatives with such a family.

Han Ning would like such a person regardless of her appearance, not to mention that she was a school beauty and more beautiful than any other girl he had flirted with before.

Han Ning believed that he was sincere and remained patient, not anxious.

At first, he thought that as long as he worked hard, he would be able to get this person soon.

After all, given one's appearance and family conditions, few people can resist the temptation of the world.

After getting to know her, I discovered that Meng Shulan's mind was full of books and college entrance exams, and she had no interest in anything else.

This person's heart is like a pool of stagnant water, no ripples can be created no matter how you stir it.

After a few setbacks, Han Ning gradually changed his strategy.

If direct methods don't work, he'll try indirect methods. She's a nice person and thin-skinned, and she'll always feel embarrassed after being rejected so many times.

Han Ning had already planned what would happen that day. He would first spread rumors among the boys that he was going to confess his love. Then, when the dumplings were delivered to her, it would be best if he could feed her a bite. Under her unguarded eyes, his plan would then take a crucial step.

At first, everything went smoothly.

Han Ning got a box of dumplings from Ye Ran, which were filled with pork.

Meng Shulan did not accept it. She felt bad and was afraid that people would think too much.

However, when she heard that he had asked for it from the cafeteria and it was a birthday present for a friend, Meng Shulan felt a little relieved.

Han Ning seized the opportunity and handed one to her. "Shulan, I worked so hard to get this box of dumplings. With so many people watching, please do me a favor and try one. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back to class for the next few days."

Han Ning smiled foolishly, looking harmless.

Meng Shulan let down her guard and planned to accept the call, but Han Ning didn't expect that things would get out of control from that moment on.

The disparity between her reactions before and after was so obvious that Han Ning began to suspect that her previous innocence and lack of scheming were all feigned, just to embarrass herself at that moment.

But do they have such a deep hatred and resentment towards each other?

Han Ning pinched his eyebrows, a little confused.

My uncle said that since the other party is unwilling, forget it, study hard, focus on your studies, and try to get into college. There will be many outstanding girls waiting for you in the future.

But when Han Ning thought about how he had worked in vain and was humiliated, he felt so unwilling!
Here, Han Ning was feeling conflicted and bored.

Not far from him, two tables away, Ye Ran looked at Meng Shulan who was concentrating seriously in front of her, and Han Ning, who kept his eyes on her, and bit her lip in anger.

Even after all this trouble, he still refuses to give up...

Not long after the self-study class started, the head teacher came and asked everyone to stop writing and say a few words.

The incident still revolves around adolescent matters, so everyone should not get too excited. Even if you have any ideas, you should wait until the college entrance examination is over. Don't ruin your future with a single thought and disappoint the expectations of your parents and relatives.

Everyone listened silently, glancing at Han Ning and Meng Shulan from time to time. They obviously understood who brought up this topic.

Meng Shulan was listening at first, but then she started to do the math in her head and didn't take it seriously.

After the head teacher finished nagging, he asked Han Ning to go to the stage to make an oral review in front of the whole class and apologize to Meng Shulan.

Yesterday they said they would apologize privately, but today it became public.

Although it was only in his own class, it was still very embarrassing for Han Ning.

However, this is already the best way to deal with it. The apology is not made in private, but is brought out for public display. Even if Meng Shulan does not forgive him, the matter is over in everyone's hearts.

Seeing the man standing on the podium and reciting his self-criticism sincerely, Meng Shulan sneered.

This is probably his own idea.

He has always been good at balancing interests.

At 9:30 in the evening, the bell rang for the end of get out of class.

Meng Shulan took the two books and quickly went to the hot water room.

When she arrived, Hu Bifang had already fetched water and was standing by waiting for her.

The two met, smiled at each other, and went back together carrying their respective thermoses. On the way, they met three other people from the dormitory.

Each of the three people was holding two thermoses in their hands. It was obvious that they had divided the work with others and helped each other to fetch water.

Seeing Meng Shulan and Hu Bifang, someone said, "Shulan, why were you running so fast just now? I was going to ask you to fetch water, but when I looked up, you were gone."

There are eight people in the dormitory, and except for Hu Bifang, the others are all in the repeat class.

In the past, Meng Shulan would always act with them, but today she ran away alone and walked with Hu Bifang. They felt a little strange.

After all, they were not in the same class, and Hu Bifang had a very ordinary relationship with them.

Although Meng Shulan liked reading and didn't talk much in the past, she would still inform them if anything happened. But today she was abnormal.

Meng Shulan said, "I made an appointment with Bifang before evening self-study. You guys should hurry up and get in line. We're going back first."

Meng Shulan didn't explain too much. It was just a small matter and felt there was no need.

Hu Bifang felt a little uneasy. After the three of them walked away, she asked Meng Shulan worriedly, "You didn't wait for them today. Will they not invite you to join them in the future?"

Meng Shulan smiled, "If you don't want to call me, then don't call me. You're not a three-year-old child who needs a companion."

There is no need to make close friends with someone who can remember such trivial matters.
