Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

"Let's both get into Nanjing University..."

Li Wenyan's eyes, which showed dark circles from lack of sleep in recent days, revealed a hint of longing.

But soon, he laughed self-deprecatingly.

"I think I was able to reach the score required for NTU once this semester, but it just so happened that the question type I reviewed before the exam was on the test."

"I know my own score; it's not high enough."

"Besides, Nanjing University is quite far from National Tsing Hua University, which you want to go to, in opposite directions."

Upon hearing this...

Lin Qingxue shook her head.

"Don't think of the college entrance exam as a monster. In fact, the content of the exam is just like usual, and the question types are also similar."

"As for the distance..."

"If you can get into a good university, go for it. Don't worry about how far it is from you."

"Besides..."

Lin Qingxue spoke softly.

"You wanted to stay away from me all along, didn't you?"

These words were spoken.

Li Wenyan paused as he put the letter into the envelope.

"What I said before was just out of anger. I know I can't blame you; it's him who's been bothering you."

He looked up as he spoke, and smiled on his pale, thin face.

"I've done what I was supposed to do, and I've vented my anger."

"I'm still feeling resentful and uneasy because he tricked me and gave me a demerit."

"And you know what? Because of him, people in my class and on the street are saying how awful I am that I would do such things."

Lin Qingxue paused, and she saw Li Wenyan's resentful eyes gradually pass over her and look towards the classroom.

She moved lightly, blocking his path.

"Ayan, the principal didn't call your name. They were just chatting and didn't know it was you. Besides, you were punished for smoking, which is not allowed in the first place. It has nothing to do with him."

"I..."

Lin Qingxue paused for a moment before continuing, "We finally got rid of him, don't do anything pointless."

Li Wenyan lowered his head, stuffed the postcard back into his pocket, and chuckled softly.

"I was just saying, why are you so nervous?"

Lin Qingxue's eyes flickered slightly, and after a long while, she spoke softly.

"I'm just worried that he might influence you again and cause you to miss your exam."

Li Wenyan took a deep breath and only raised his head after a long while.

He looked at Lin Qingxue, patted his pocket, and laughed.

"It's okay. Now I know that not everyone in this school rejects me. There are also people who silently see me as a role model and encourage me."

"I'm not as anxious anymore."

"Alright, evening self-study is about to start, I'm going back."

"Xiaoxue, let's cheer each other on!"

Lin Qingxue stood there, watching his thin figure gradually disappear into the distance.

Until he walked into the next classroom and disappeared.

Lin Qingxue then withdrew her gaze, turned around, and walked into the classroom.

In class.

Liu Yun saw Lin Qingxue return.

Until they got right up to him.

I could feel her emotionless, calm gaze.

Liu Yun lowered her head even further and shrank her neck.

"Um... Qingxue, let me explain."

"I..."

But before she could finish speaking...

Lin Qingxue didn't look at her, looked away, and sat down in her seat without saying a word.

Liu Yun was stunned.

Is she... angry?

Ah...no, you couldn't tell from what she wrote at all...

Can't I even vent my frustrations?

Liu Yun felt a little down, but she still took a deep breath, patted Lin Qingxue, and wanted to apologize.

"clear..."

But before she could say anything more...

Ring ring...

The bell rang for evening self-study.

The noisy classroom immediately and spontaneously fell silent for a moment.

Lin Qingxue also picked up her pen to prepare for reviewing.

"Class is starting, everyone go back to your seats and make the most of your time to review."

Sudden.

A crisp sound came from the back of the classroom.

Lin Qingxue paused, her hand holding the pen still.

This time, the voice didn't carry the deliberate sharpness and barely concealed unease that it had the first time.

It has become much more natural.

"Do these problems, I'll check them for you when I get back during break, don't be lazy!"

"If you prepare it in advance, you can bring it directly to the podium and ask me questions."

The voice became very low, as if they were whispering, and it was somewhat indistinct.

But Lin Qingxue heard it all clearly for some reason.

Then.

A series of footsteps approached from afar.

Until I passed by her.

A gentle breeze arose.

It carries a faint jasmine fragrance.

Lin Qingxue did not look up.

But I could see it clearly out of the corner of my eye.

The figure was wearing a somewhat oversized school uniform, the hem of which swayed with the movement.

Her tied ponytail swayed as well.

That light and energetic aura drew people's eyes involuntarily.

Then I noticed the purple hair clip she was wearing at the back of her head.

"Hey, Liu Yun."

"Don't you think Xinyi looked a bit like the class monitor just now? For a moment, I even thought she was the class monitor."

Liu Yun's deskmate couldn't help but nudge her shoulder and mutter something under his breath.

"Huh? Does it look like it?"

Liu Yun, who was feeling troubled, replied subconsciously.

"No, they don't look alike at all."

"I'm not talking about looks, it's more like... um? aura?"

"I can't really explain it, and she seems to be managing us quite well now."

"Is that so?"

Liu Yun then raised her head and looked at the seat next to the podium.

That figure, head bowed, quietly reading a book.

Just one glance.

Liu Yun was somewhat stunned.

Her long hair was tied up, and her figure was wearing a school uniform that didn't quite fit.

Her face was obscured, but her condition and figure were remarkably similar to the former Lin Qingxue.

Liu Yun shifted her gaze to the person in front of her.

Lin Qingxue, who was sitting in front of them, was wearing clothes that fit her size well, making her look even more slender.

With her head bowed and long hair cascading down, she appeared even more enigmatic, as if she had returned to the beginning, to the person who wanted to shut herself off completely.

Liu Yun blinked blankly.

It does seem... quite similar.

Just like the things on Lin Qingxue's body, gradually...

Zhang Xinyi is gradually taking over.
