How come you're also my ex-girlfriend?

Jiang Yiyao is simply unbelievably beautiful.

……

Chapter 6: You're right to remind me!

"Xu Yan!"

Xu Yan, who had just finished enjoying a delicious bowl of stir-fried noodles with green peppers and shredded pork at a breakfast shop, was patted hard on the shoulder from behind.

When Xu Yan turned around, she saw a boy with an average appearance, but who was quite handsome, and most importantly, had a very flamboyant side-swept fringe.

Zhou Wentao, my classmate, was one of the few boys in the class I was on relatively good terms with—just okay, nothing special. He was one of the participants in yesterday's 'park incident,' or more accurately, the instigator.' He's 1.75 meters tall. Why mention his height? Because I'm 1.78 meters tall.

He comes from a well-off family; his father works as a minor leader in the Liangcheng Tobacco Bureau, which is barely enough to qualify him for a Brahmin family in Liangcheng. Of course, his family background is still much better than Xu Yan's.

"Huh? What a coincidence."

Xu Yan also greeted them.

Zhou Wentao immediately leaned forward, squinted his eyes, and gestured with his chin, "That girl who was at your table earlier was pretty good. I don't think I've seen her before. Does our school have any other hot girls like her?"

Xu Yan frowned slightly. Top-notch? What kind of adjectives are those? I'll record it and post it on Xiaohongshu for you.

He subtly shifted his body, slightly increasing the distance between himself and Zhou Wentao, at least enough to make Zhou Wentao lower his hand from his shoulder.

"I don't know, we just happened to be having breakfast at the same table."

It's definitely not about keeping it all to yourself; it's just that Xu Yan himself doesn't know whether his relationship with Jiang Yiyao is good or bad right now. After all, they haven't seen each other for two years, and their time together yesterday... wasn't very pleasant, so there's no need to deliberately maintain contact.

"That's a pity, I think she's much prettier than Lin Jia..."

Just as Xu Yan was about to praise Zhou Wentao for not being blind, Zhou Wentao dramatically slapped his mouth, looking as if he had said something wrong.

"Oh dear, I almost forgot, Lin Jia is your goddess, and in your heart, Lin Jia is definitely the best."

"...Don't talk nonsense. I am a materialist and I only have one belief."

Zhou Wentao was stunned for a moment, watching Xu Yan walk forward on her own, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out.

So he quickly caught up with Xu Yan and asked, "By the way, how did it go yesterday, bro? I created such a great opportunity for you guys?"

Why are there people in this world who love to bring up things they don't want to talk about?

Xu Yan shook his head, "What results can we expect from just chatting?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wentao immediately said, "Don't be embarrassed if you don't succeed. Lin Jia, there are plenty of guys who try to chat her up at school, so it's normal that it's a bit more difficult. Just think of it as fighting a boss in a game. If one approach doesn't work, try another."

Change your playstyle? Does the fact that I can't even see the health bar have anything to do with changing my playstyle?

However, Xu Yan no longer had any intention of looking at the health bar.

He simply put his hands in his pockets, looked straight ahead, and remained focused.

"Let whoever wants to hit me do it, it has nothing to do with me. You'd better not say these things again. If she blames me for spreading rumors, I won't say a word."

"Giving up already? What's important in relationships? It's perseverance. You need to understand that many times when a girl rejects you, she doesn't really mean it; she just wants to test your feelings..."

"Where have I heard that before?" Xu Yan looked at Zhou Wentao strangely, then asked, "Have you ever been in a relationship?"

Zhou Wentao stared intently at Xu Yan, "Xu Yan, I've noticed that you seem to have been hurt quite deeply by Lin Jia."

Xu Yan laughed heartily, "Are you feeling the urgency?"

"Screw you! Forget it, let's talk about something happy."

Xu Yan did have some happy things, but unfortunately he couldn't talk about the system. If he did, people would just question whether he had been reading too many novels lately.

What made you happy?

"You know there will be a diagnostic test this month, right?"

"Is this something to be happy about? I admit my last comment was a bit aggressive, but you really don't need to act crazy to get back at me. I can apologize." Xu Yan thinking that taking an exam is something to be happy about is like a prisoner finding out they've been given an extra ten years and then jumping for joy.

too crazy.

"Damn it, what nonsense are you spouting?" Zhou Wentao said irritably. "This placement test is crucial for promotion."

"You want to move up a grade?"

In the affiliated high school, the gap between the experimental class and the regular class is indeed quite large. Xu Yan's previous grades were only average in the regular class. If he did not show any outstanding progress in the test and reveal his potential, he would basically have no hope of being promoted to the next class.

Fortunately, my family didn't put too much pressure on me in terms of studying; at least they didn't enroll me in a crazy number of tutoring classes.

"Nonsense, otherwise why do you think I'm attending tutoring classes during the summer? Although there aren't many spots for promotion this time, I'm determined to get one. You should work hard too, and I'll take you to London."

"I understand. But you should go. London is too gloomy, I'm a sunny boy."

"You're so cheerful? Don't make me laugh. Tell me something to motivate you."

"what?"

"Lin Jia is also attending tutoring classes now, in the same class as me. She wants to move up a grade too."

So, it's true that he just wants to focus on studying right now? It doesn't matter, he's too lazy to even have any grand fantasies anymore.

"Then I wish you all a bright future."

The promotion to a higher grade is a scam; the students with better grades really do devour those with worse grades, so he's not going.

Realizing that Xu Yan seemed genuinely uninterested in the topic of Lin Jia, Zhou Wentao didn't want to make things awkward.

The two chatted idly until they reached the classroom.

The lively classroom was filled with a joyful atmosphere, like a gathering of old friends. Zhou Wentao immediately joined in, mainly looking for his good friends from the Liangcheng Brahman clan. However, seeing him trying to blend in by smiling obsequiously on the periphery, Xu Yan felt a pang of sadness.

Just as I was putting my schoolbag away and finding my summer homework and a pile of test papers, ready to hand them in, a figure suddenly appeared in my peripheral vision.

"Hey, hey, I'll tell you something in secret."

Dude, you don't even have a name? You just use "Eh Eh Eh" instead? At least use "Eh Eh Eh"! Dude has a two-character name!

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Xiao Yujie, the gatekeeper of the big boss Lin Jia.

"what's up?"

After all, they were classmates. Although Xu Yan had never liked Lin Jia's close relationship with Lin Jia, he still had to put on a show.

Xiao Yujie glanced around furtively, as if afraid that her words would be overheard. Then, she lowered her voice and said to Xu Yan with the excitement of revealing a mystery, "Jiajia woke up late today and came in a hurry. She didn't even have time for breakfast. You know what I mean?"

Xu Yan looked at Xiao Yujie with a puzzled expression. "I'm not a food delivery person, why are you telling me this?"

Xiao Yujie didn't notice that Xu Yan's attitude was unusual, and thought that he was just lacking in emotional intelligence.

She even felt like a matchmaker getting impatient, and couldn't help but slap Xu Yan's arm, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Hurry up and go to the convenience store to buy some food for Jiajia, aren't you going to cherish such a good opportunity?"

"I cherish..."

Xu Yan was about to blurt out a curse, but at that moment...

Back in your senior year of high school, you still have to confront this girl named Lin Jia. When you recall your on-again, off-again relationship with Lin Jia, your heart is filled with mixed emotions. When you encounter questions about her again, you feel you'll handle it better than before...

[Task: Buy breakfast for Lin Jia. Reward will be given based on your choice.]

Xu Yan: ?

The words were on the tip of his tongue, and the impatient expression he was about to make vanished instantly. Xu Yan even smiled, revealing a bright set of white teeth.

They might even get up immediately.

"Yujie, it's good that you reminded me."

Yu Jie? When did he start calling me so intimately?

Looking at the handsome and clean-cut face of the boy in front of me, I felt a surge of youthful energy and sunshine.

Xiao Yujie felt her cheeks getting warm.

Actually, if Xu Yan hadn't been so fixated on Lin Jia, but instead had chosen someone else... he would have had a pretty good chance of succeeding, right?

Xu Yan stood up and strode straight out of the classroom.

Xiao Yujie, belatedly realizing what was happening, couldn't help but lightly spit out a curse.

"That idiot, he didn't even ask what Jiajia likes to eat!"

……

Chapter 7: Are there more experts?

"Jiajia, all done!"

Xiao Yujie found Lin Jia, who was smiling and chatting with a few boys, and said smugly.

Lin Jia immediately turned around and asked Xiao Yujie in a low voice, "What did you do?"

“I told Xu Yan that you didn’t have time to eat breakfast today, and asked him to go and buy you breakfast.”

Why did you tell him?

Lin Jia gets furious whenever this is mentioned.

When she got home yesterday, everything was normal. She felt incredibly positive and was even able to get a beauty sleep early.

Two hours had passed, and dinner was almost digested, but Xu Yan still hadn't sent a friend request, nor had he come out to chat in the group.

She just couldn't understand it. Hadn't she already given him enough face? They said they could still be good friends, so why did he delete her and throw a tantrum? What was he pretending for?

I initially thought it was a minor incident, one of the most common little disturbances in my high school life, not even an accident. But for some reason, I couldn't help feeling angry.

How could a guy delete me like that? I have to get my revenge, make him send me a friend request, and then I can gracefully reject him!

So she started sending a lot of messages in the group. She thought that when Xu Yan saw her name appearing repeatedly, he would definitely not be able to hold back and would definitely think of all the past events.

He might drink a bottle of beer, smoke a cigarette, and then chat with family and friends in a seemingly normal way. But once he gets back to his room and is in bed, he can't help but open his phone, find himself in the class group chat, and send a friend request.

Lin Jia waited from 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 1 o'clock in the morning while she was lost in her own thoughts.
