No one understands rebirth better than me

Chapter 233 Guan Ren's Upward Journey

The next day at school, everything was as usual.

Discussions about the sports meet are naturally still ongoing.

However, since they are high school sophomores, they can't keep it up for too long or make too much of a fuss. They can chat about it when they're free during their free time, and that's about it.

Compared to this, many people still value the upcoming monthly exam more.

"Oh well, in the end, being good at singing is not as good as being good at taking exams, and being good at writing songs is still not as good as being good at writing essays..."

During the long break, Liu Xiong sat on Guan Ren's desk, pretending to be an old man and sighing.

Xu Hui sneered from the side:
Fun fact: Ren is good at exams, and even better at writing essays.

Liu Xiong paused for a moment, then muttered a sour "Damn it."

It seems that it really is...

"Second Master."

Liu Xiong patted Guan Ren on the shoulder:

"How did you manage to get to the bottom of this?"

"Ok?"

Guan Ren, who had been lost in thought, trembled slightly and looked up blankly:

"What? Who's looking for me? Teacher Gu?"

"What are you looking for? Nobody's looking for you."

What do you mean by that?

How did we get involved with Teacher Gu?
Liu Xiong and Xu Hui exchanged a glance and then sneered:

"Second Master, you've been sitting in this corner since last semester, in close contact with that devil Gu every day. You didn't get a PowerPoint presentation, did you?"

"You look like a PowerPoint presentation; that's called PTSD."

"Oh right, you didn't get PTSD from Teacher Gu, did you?"

"No…"

"What are you feeling guilty about? You're always thinking about her and wanting her to see you."

Xu Hui and Liu Xiong had their arms around each other's shoulders:
"Let's go to the office and find Teacher Gu."

Guan Ren was speechless:

"What are you looking for her for?"

"Hehe, weren't you being stubborn and saying she didn't give you PTSD? Well then, let's go find Teacher Gu and have her help you get rid of it."

"..."

Guan Ren's eyelids twitched as he listened.

"Then thank you in advance..."

You have to admit that students these days are still quite innocent.

Some things they say don't seem to make a difference.

But when Guan Ren heard this, it made him even more guilty.

After all, the reason he was lost in thought just now was because he suddenly realized that Gu Wancheng had brought him a lot of trouble.

……

"Ugh…"

Guan Ren rested his chin on his hand and continued to drift off into thought.

Then, after a while, a pleasant, cool voice sounded beside me:

"Guan Ren, are you spacing out?"

"Sister Gu."

Guan Ren smiled politely:
"Goddess Gu, is there something you need?"

"..."

Gu Youli frowned slightly.

Guan Ren found it strange.

Unlike before, he seemed to detect a hint of reproach in her eyes...

"Who's the goddess?"

"You."

"Who identified him?"

"me."

"hehe."

Gu Youli placed a notebook on his desk.

It is a "Physics Essentials" book with the latest knowledge points added.

Guan Ren never expected that this thing could actually be updated regularly.

Of course, Gu Youli's updates to "Essentials of Physics" also have an advantage beyond just learning.

That also reminded Guan Ren that it was time to update Little Lemon Goddess's "English Essentials".

"As expected of the class monitor, hmm, how about I combine the two and call you the Goddess of Study?"

Little Pear Blossom's expression was stiff, and after stammering for a long time, she managed to squeeze out a sentence:
"Aren't you... embarrassed?"

"Ah this..."

Guan Ren wasn't actually embarrassed.

Hearing what Xiaolihua said, it seemed a bit awkward.

"what?"

Then, a brilliant idea struck him:
"How about we call her Little Pear Blossom Goddess?"

Gu Youli blinked, recalling the recent trends, and asked in confusion:

Is it popular to call girls "goddesses" these days?

Guan Ren calculated for a moment and nodded:
"That's true, but most girls don't deserve it. First of all, don't think I'm being vulgar, but if you want to be a goddess, the first thing you have to do is be good-looking, right?"

Gu Youli nodded slowly after hearing this, seemingly lost in thought.

That is true...

Would he also call Luo Xiaobei a goddess?

"So you call every pretty girl you see a goddess?"

"Hey! I'm not that kind of person!"

Guan Ren slammed his hand on the table and stood up, his face full of righteous indignation, intently staring at Gu Youli's beautiful face:
"Sister Gu, actually, you have always been the only goddess in my heart."

"..."

To be honest, Gu Youli wanted to ask again, "Aren't you embarrassed?"

But I don't know why.

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Gu Youli hesitated for a moment, then gently touched her slightly pink earlobes, and finally stammered out a soft, hesitant sentence:
"Really..."

"real!"

"What do you mean, real or fake?"

Suddenly, a girl with pigtails jumped over, smiling and blinking her big eyes at Guan Ren:
What are you guys talking about? Can I join in?

"Uh…"

Guan Ren felt it wasn't appropriate to say that they were talking about "goddesses".

"We were talking about the goddess."

"?!"

However, while he couldn't say it, there were plenty of others who could. Guan Ren instinctively shrank back and looked up at Xiao Lihua.

Little Pear Blossom was looking at Luo Xiaobei.

"Ok?"

Luo Xiaobei also looked at Gu Youli:
"What goddess? When did our class get a goddess?"

"I don't know, but you can ask Guan Ren, he knows."

"is it?"

Luo Xiaobei glanced at Guan Ren, smiling broadly:

"Guan Ren, who is your goddess?"

"Uh, it's Gu..."

broken!

Why does it feel so creepy?

Because Guan Ren had made a promise to Luo Xiaobei that he could never deceive her, he almost blurted out the name "Gu Youli" without thinking.

But for some reason, the atmosphere between the two of them is clearly not quite right right now.

As soon as the word "Gu" left his mouth, Guan Ren felt that Luo Xiaobei's smiling face as she looked at Gu Youli seemed to grow somewhat somber.

At a time like this, if he honestly admitted that he was praising Gu Youli as a goddess, wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire? Two girls?
Fortunately, goddesses are not common.

But it seems that Guan Ren is not so rare.

"Teacher Gu!"

Guan Ren continued, using the character "顾":

"I think Teacher Gu is definitely my goddess!"

"Guan Ren..."

"?!"

Today was truly an unlucky day.

Speak of Cao Cao, and other men's wives will appear.

Speaking of goddesses, Gu Wancheng is here.

Wearing a gray business pencil skirt suit, her long, shapely legs encased in light-colored pantyhose, and silver patent leather seven-centimeter high heels, she had only taken a few steps into the classroom when Guan Ren was spouting his nonsense.

What a familiar scene.

This time it's alright.

I still remember last time, at the same time and in the same place, Guan Ren was still clamoring for Gu Wancheng to take maternity leave…

Memories flooded back, and Guan Ren, drenched in sweat, glanced at Gu Wancheng.

But maybe it's because there really wasn't much this time, and they just called Gu Wancheng a goddess.

Therefore, Guan Ren did not see much anger or anything like that in Gu Wancheng's eyes.

However, her cold, almond-shaped eyes remained sharp, sweeping across the entire class in a flash:

"You didn't hear the bell ring, did you? You only start studying when I get into the classroom!?"

Especially when she saw her younger sister, Gu Youli, still standing by Guan Ren's table, Gu Youli's eyebrows furrowed:
"Gu Youli... and Luo Xiaobei, the bell has rung for class, why haven't you gone back to your seats yet? Hurry up and go back!"

"..."

Little Pear Blossom responded with an "Mmm".

Luo Xiaobei stuck out her little tongue.

The two girls went home separately.

Guan Ren then realized that the unpleasant atmosphere around him had vanished in an instant.

Tsk tsk tsk…

It has to be a mature older sister like Gu Wancheng...

How could young girls possibly withstand the aura of such a sophisticated and aloof woman? A simple rebuke cleared the fog and brought the sun to the surface.

"Guan Ren, stand up."

"Ah... ah?"

"What 'ah'? The cicadas are chirping sadly, back."

"The cicadas chirp mournfully in the cold... as evening falls on the long pavilion..."

Guan Ren recited ancient poems with his head down.

But gradually, my gaze was drawn to something alluring.

This is precisely the source of Guan Ren's troubles regarding Gu Wancheng.

……

To put it simply, it's mainly because it's summer now.

Skirt suits, stockings, and high heels have become Gu Wancheng's daily go-to outfit.

Originally, this was nothing.

Guan Ren came to school to study; he wasn't interested in these things.

Unfortunately, he was sitting right next to the podium, and he was Gu Wancheng's deskmate!

A fake deskmate: We can only be together during the long break between classes and after school in the afternoon.

A true deskmate: someone who sits next to you during class.

The key point is that Guan Ren's deskmate would be fine if she walked around while lecturing, but in the summer she didn't really want to walk around, so she just sat on the podium to lecture.

She could talk, but those long legs were rather restless; she liked to cross them.

One leg was crossed over the other, swaying gently.

They would exchange them from time to time.

Thus, the two long legs, encased in ultra-thin stockings, kept making a rustling sound as they rubbed against each other.

In addition, her skirt suit was also form-fitting and tightly wrapped around her waist and hips, which were also covered by pantyhose. Therefore, the rustling sound of the fabric was even more noticeable to Guan Ren, whose five senses were already very sharp.

The more he listened to the rustling sound, as if he were gently caressing Gu Wancheng's stockings, the more agitated he became.

Moreover, that's not all.

……

Because Gu Wancheng had one leg crossed, one of her beautiful feet was also raised in the air, and she also liked to shake it restlessly a couple of times while lecturing.

As she swayed, her heel slowly slipped out of her high heel, a little bit more, and then a little bit more…

Gradually, her soft, rounded heel slipped out of the shoe, and through the delicate fabric of the stockings, it revealed a faint, pale pinkish jade color in the sunlight.

The heel of that silver high heel was completely suspended in mid-air.

The entire high heel was held up by Gu Wancheng's toes, swaying back and forth with her restless, light taps.

Of course, because Gu Wancheng was still focused on lecturing, her footwork was a little haphazard.

Occasionally, her toes would point upwards, hooking the toes a little harder, revealing the bright red soles of her high heels.

If you hook it too lightly, it looks like it might fall off at any moment, completely revealing that soft, beautiful foot.

……

And so, almost every flick of Gu Wancheng's high heels captivated Guan Ren's heart.

This is undoubtedly Guan Ren's biggest worry right now.

Imagine having such a classmate sitting next to you.

How can I study properly now?!
How can we be positive and motivated then?!
……

In short, Guan Ren felt that attending Gu Wancheng's classes now was even more difficult than when Gu Wancheng was away on business trips.
