Reborn to prepare for the college entrance exam, you're letting me retire and make a comeback?

In Lu Qian's view, he had delivered a brilliant counterattack.

Because he saw the smile on Su Yuwei's face freeze.

It's like a piece of exquisite porcelain that suddenly develops a crack.

Seeing the woman who had once injured his kneecap in a bad mood made him feel better immediately.

"Speaking of which, how did I even fall for Su Yuwei back then?"

After the filter shattered, Lu Qian also felt that he had been an idiot.

How could you not see such obvious green tea behavior?

That's outrageous!

As our ancestor wisely said, hesitation leads to defeat, and sincerity is wasted.

It's true what they say: those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly.

Meanwhile, Su Yuwei on the other side was also completely unprepared for this turn of events.

In her envisioned script, Lu Qian should, as usual, first awkwardly explain his previous gift-giving behavior, then accept her return gift with trepidation, feeling deeply moved by her thoughtfulness and understanding, and secretly vowing to give her an even more expensive gift next time to repay her kindness.

"He rejected me, saying he was afraid Lin Shuyue would misunderstand?"

Su Yuwei's brain almost overheated.

I almost wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.

But people who are good at putting on an act usually have a good mentality, and she immediately regained her composure.

At this moment, she did not think that Lu Qian wanted to break off their relationship, and she ignored the three words Lin Shuyue in Lu Qian's words. She just thought that her behavior just now had caused Lu Qian to misunderstand and think that she was saving him money.

He quickly said, "Lu Qian, don't overthink it. I really didn't mean anything by it. I just felt that you spent too much money before. This gift I gave you isn't expensive at all; it's just a small token of my appreciation..."

She shook the small bag in her hand: "Look, it's just a small thing, I won't spend any extra money on you, please accept it, okay? We don't need to be so formal between us..."

Su Yuwei felt that her performance was absolutely brilliant.

As Lu Qian watched her performance, his gaze grew increasingly cold.

Rereading a book will bring different feelings, but it won't have a different ending.

After seeing through everything, and then reviewing your experiences with the perspective of someone who has been through it all, all those little schemes will naturally come to light.

I must have lost my mind to give her such an expensive bracelet.

In this lifetime, he would never do such a thing again.

Women aren't won over by chasing, but by attraction.

Now that everyone's been reborn, who still chases girls?

He said casually, "So you knew this gift wasn't expensive?"

"When you bought that Swarovski bracelet from me, why didn't you think it was expensive?"

"What, do you think my money grows on trees? Or do you think I'm entitled to spend it on such inexpensive return gifts?"

These words were spoken without any mercy.

If the previous rejection only embarrassed Su Yuwei, these words were like publicly exposing her true feelings, laying bare her little schemes in the sunlight.

Lu Qian has never been petty. If a dog bites him, then sorry, he has to bite the dog twice in return.

A moment of patience brings peace, but taking a step back only makes you angrier!

So they didn't hesitate to launch a beautiful counterattack.

Su Yuwei's face suddenly looked much uglier.

The classmates who were watching the show immediately changed their expressions after hearing Lu Qian's words.

"I see……"

"Su Yuwei gives gifts to other boys not because she doesn't love money, but so she can reap benefits for a longer period of time!"

"That's so cunning... I almost got played like Tom!"

The boys suddenly realized what was happening, and their gazes towards Su Yuwei changed.

After all, they would be able to get their high school diploma in a year. Everyone wasn't stupid; they all understood what Lu Qian was saying.

Think about it deeply; it's terrifying to contemplate.

Is your sister wearing a Rolex?

What a bitch!

Su Yuwei was instantly so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear.

"Lu Qian, how can you talk to me like that?"

"Have you forgotten our promise to work hard together to get into Wuhan University? We used to be such good friends, how can you talk to me like that?"

She tried to appeal to emotions and shift the topic to obscure the focus.

Unfortunately, Lu Qian now sees her no differently than he sees a moldy rag on the roadside.

Moreover, as a reborn individual, he knew all too well how ridiculous that statement was.

"Take the entrance exam for Wuhan University?"

Lu Qian chuckled as if he had heard an amusing joke: "Well, you're quite impressive."

"Good luck, Su! I wish you success!"

Return it to its original, authentic, and utterly manipulative nature.

I don't even dip dumplings in vinegar, so don't take my period for granted!

Then, he turned sideways and grabbed Lin Shuyue's wrist.

I must say, no wonder it's the hands of an eighteen-year-old girl, they're incredibly tender, which made Lu Qian freeze for a moment.

This food is so delicious!

"Hey, Lu Qian, what are you doing?"

The warm touch on her wrist made Lin Shuyue's heart skip a beat.

Lu Qian pulled her outside, saying, "Let's go, forget about all this nonsense. I'll take you to buy a gift, something much more expensive than her cheap trinket!"

"??"

After being pulled along by Lu Qian and staggering a couple of steps, Lin Shuyue seemed to have come back to her senses from what had just happened.

Seeing that Lu Qian seemed to have suddenly become enlightened, Lin Shuyue couldn't help but feel delighted.

"Okay!" she replied crisply, her voice brimming with undisguised laughter.

She quickened her pace and caught up with Lu Qian.

Their hands were clasped together, both sweaty.

……

……

Outside the school gate.

The sun is just right, the breeze is not dry.

No. 3 Road still stretches endlessly, the plane trees still provide ample shade, the sun blazes fiercely, and the wind rustles through the treetops—we were young then.

Students come and go on the road, the leaves of the phoenix trees fall downwards, and everywhere you look, there is the atmosphere of youth.

Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School is still the same Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School I remember; familiar memories of my alma mater come rushing back.

"Sigh, it really does feel like it's from a bygone era..."

Lu Qian looked at the students passing by, all wearing cropped pants or with their trousers rolled up to expose their ankles, and the feeling of rebirth overwhelmed him.

Students of all ages love this style, and I think I was the same way back then.

How should I put it? He looks very young, doesn't he?

People's aesthetic sense always changes with age, and adults may find these children's outfits outdated.

But isn't this also a kind of youth?

This reminded Lu Qian of something he had once joked about with a friend:

"When I was eighteen, I used a wooden stick to unleash a sword aura, which disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"When I was twenty-eight, I was walking down a main road at night when suddenly a gust of wind blew from behind me."

"I felt like I sensed something, and I suddenly turned around."

"That sword energy struck my neck squarely, severing the last trace of my youthful spirit."

For a moment, I was filled with emotion.

Two and a half hours after being reborn, I can finally smell a bit of the atmosphere of 2014.

Watching all this, Lu Qian smiled and said to himself:

"Go, young man, go and see the wind in your destiny."

"..."

Meanwhile, Lin Shuyue was pulled along by Lu Qian for a while, her pretty face still flushed, and her heart was beating incredibly fast.

Looking at the handsome profile of the young man with her bright, sparkling eyes, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

But she still habitually declined, saying, "Lu Qian, you really don't need to go to such lengths. Su Yuwei and I are different; we don't really need any gifts..."

"I'm so happy that you can see through Su Yuwei's true colors..."

Her voice grew softer and softer, but her tone became increasingly cheerful.

Lu Qian finally let go, which can be considered a return to the right path.

She was genuinely happy for her childhood sweetheart.

Hearing her words, Lu Qian stopped and turned to look at her.

Sunlight shone on his face, outlining his handsome features.

Lu Qian didn't say anything, just smiled mysteriously, and then slowly took his phone out of his pocket.

Open Alipay and view your balance.

"Here you are."

He shoved the screen right in front of Lin Shuyue's eyes: "I'm going to show you something amazing."

He doesn't mind showing off a little at this time.

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Lin Shuyue curiously leaned over to take a look—

Transfer record: ¥5000.00

The power of Chairman Mao!

A string of bright numbers instantly stunned Lin Shuyue.

"Why?"

Lin Shuyue stared blankly at the number on Alipay, her mind reeling: "Lu Qian... who suddenly transferred such a large sum of money to you?"

"You didn't do anything illegal, did you?"

Lin Shuyue knew that Lu Qian's parents didn't usually give him much pocket money, so this money was most likely not transferred to him by his parents.

But where would Lu Qian, a high school student, get so much money?

Lin Shuyue was somewhat puzzled.

"Of course not."

Lu Qian said, "This money came from a perfectly legitimate source."

"Then...where did you get so much money?" Lin Shuyue asked curiously.

"You got it by selling yourself."

"??!"
