"Yeah, that's right. After all, this happened."

"Can you tell me about it?" She seemed to have accepted this setting. It has to be said that kids of this era are so easy to fool.

"Not really. You were the most popular girl in the class in the first grade, the school beauty. Every day people wrote you love letters. All the boys were surrounding you, so there was no time for us to meet."

"Oh, is that so?" Although I felt a little embarrassed when others told me that I was the school belle, I was really a little proud, just a little.

"Hmm? All the girls envy you. After all, you have a good figure, you are pretty and cute, you have a nice voice, and so many boys surround you. Isn't this what girls dream of?" Tang Xin took a sip of milk tea, looking a little unwilling.

"They are just stupid. They didn't even notice such a beautiful girl."

"beauty?"

"Yeah, you."

I said to her with a smile, and then saw her face turn red at a visible speed.

"When did you learn the boys' ways?"

"hey-hey."

"Hey what? Is this what you really look like?"

"What does it really look like?" I took a sip of lemon juice and tilted my head to look at her.

"When you talked to Teacher Li this morning, and when you talked to other students, I felt that this was in line with your previous image."

"Is that so? Then what kind of person do you think I was before?" I asked her with a smile.

"Before? She was a cute and well-behaved girl, but actually she was aloof and arrogant. She kept people at a distance and often bullied other boys."

"Bullying boys?!" I couldn't help but raise my voice. With my current small arms and legs?

"Yeah, you threw love letters given to you and humiliated people from other classes who confessed their love to you in public, saying that they didn't take a piss and look at themselves in the mirror or something."

"Ah, this." My face turned red. So this is how I was in the past.

"But I just realized that you are actually quite cute in private."

"Cute or something, are you complimenting me?" It makes me even happier to hear a pretty girl complimenting me on my beauty.

"It's not these reasons that people stay away from you. Because with your personality like this, there are actually quite a lot of people who like you."

"That is?"

"Don't be angry if I tell you!" Tang Xin looked straight at me and her eyes began to wander, seeming a little hesitant.

"No." Anyway, it's not my past now, so I don't care too much.

"It's your friend Shen Jingna. She found a video from somewhere and sent it to her classmates through MMS, saying bad things about you."

"What video?"

"That's it..." Tang Xin still looked around deliberately, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to our conversation, she continued, "It was you and a very beautifully dressed girl, walking out of a hotel in the red-light district, talking and laughing."

"She also said," Tang Xin lowered her head, "She also said that you were going to fillet the corners."

"Puff!" I spat out all the lemon juice I had just drunk half a mouthful of. This sentence almost choked me to death.

This action caused everyone in the store to stop and look. I quickly waved my hands and said that I choked or something to ease the embarrassment.

"That's how it is. Everyone believed it. They all thought you were not decent. Some even came to ask you about your price..." Tang Xin's voice became lower and lower.

Pah, I put my hand on my forehead. I finally understood what was going on. It turned out that my aunt and I were suspected by our high school buddies because of this, but I explained it to them later. My aunt's company is an animation company. Because they don't have much money, they moved their office to a relatively cheap commercial and residential office building in the city. That neighborhood happened to be a famous red-light district. Although the boss wanted to move several times, it was too cheap there, almost free, so they didn't move for nearly ten years. Because I occasionally went to the company to visit my aunt on weekends and happened to be seen by a classmate passing by.

"That's too much! Shen Jingna even exaggerated it, saying that you and that mature girl came out of the hotel with a middle-aged man that day."

"That's exactly what she said."

"Puff!" This time it was her turn. The poor waiter had just mopped the floor nearby and was looking at us with resentment.

"That's my aunt and her boss. My aunt's company is in the office building over there, and she works there because the rent is very cheap. It's an animation company, not an informal company," I explained.

"Next time, please tell me the main point first." Tang Xin was a little wet and was wiping the table with a napkin. "Then why don't you explain it to your classmates?"

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to explain." This kind of thing becomes less clear the more I explain it.

"Okay, I've told you what you want to know. It's getting late, go home early." Although Tang Xin had only finished half of her milk tea, it was already nearly four forty.

"Wait." Seeing her getting up to leave, I quickly called her.

"what's up?"

"So are we friends?" I was a little looking forward to her answer.

She tilted her head and smiled, her smile as beautiful as a flower.

"Didn't I ask you to call me Xiaotang?"

AWSL

…………

When I got home, it was almost five o'clock. My aunt would definitely not be home at this time. As a new animator in the company, she is usually exploited badly. The company is also far from home, so she usually eats takeout for dinner. However, my aunt will prepare cold dishes for us to eat in the evening in the refrigerator in the morning. We just need to take them out and heat them up in the microwave. I just need to learn how to heat up cold rice or cook a little rice. But now there is a younger sister in the family. Seeing her cute sister sitting in front of the TV watching TV at this moment, I feel more responsible. For dinner, I'd better make something delicious~

On the table

"Sister, you have changed a lot today."

"Ok?"

"From the moment I walked in till now, I have been smiling~"

"Eat well! Don't talk during meal time!"

"Oh."

Chapter 7 Evening Study

In October in Jiangnan, the autumn tiger is still raging in the sky. Although it is autumn, it is no different from summer. This year's typhoon seems to be not very powerful, bypassing the coast and heading to Japan. The electric fan in the classroom is still humming and working hard. Even so, most of the students in the classroom are still drowsy, especially after noon. Even though I have been climbing for a while at noon, I still feel dizzy.

The class has turned into a lecture, and combined with my previous memories, this kind of class is simply torture.

When everyone was in low spirits, the teacher announced something at the podium - there would be a monthly exam next week.

The students, who were already in low spirits, were suddenly filled with grief. Examinations are like wars for students. Some are afraid of dying in battle, while others want to make achievements. Whether or not a student returns triumphantly even affects family harmony. Everyone's face was filled with a variety of expressions, some were happy while others were sad.

Students at this time really attach too much importance to grades, which is their only concern at the moment.

Don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Having lived two lives, I can take it easy. Besides, this kind of junior high school questions are really not a big problem. If I go to high school, I may have to review them carefully. Now, doing questions is like cutting vegetables. What I have to pay attention to are just some minor traps. After all, it is easier to make careless mistakes when I am confident.

Besides, I didn't plan to get perfect results in one exam, so I just wrote it casually. It would be strange if I did too well all of a sudden, after all, my previous academic performance seemed to have always been at the bottom.

From a distance, I saw Tang Xin turned her head with a worried look, so I gave her an OK sign, indicating that she didn't need to worry about me. I was slightly touched that someone still cared about me.

"You can come to school in the evening to study with the boarding students." Looking at the reactions of the crowd, Teacher Ye added at the podium.

The educational environment in N City is good. The school has had evening self-study since junior high school, but this is limited to boarding students. Day students can still go home to do their homework. Now Teacher Ye seems to want day students to come to the classroom to study at night, so that the class's grades can at least improve a little.

"Come to school in the evening. If you don't understand, you can ask me." I don't know when Tang Xin stood beside me.

"No thanks..." Although I didn't want to refuse her request, I was lazy. It would be too much of a pain to go to school after cooking and washing dishes at home.

"But what if you don't do well in the exam?" Tang Xin was still a little worried.

"It's okay. It's not the first or second time she did poorly in the exam. But there are Wang Hongji and others at the bottom of the class. Don't worry, she shouldn't be at the bottom." This voice came from Ma Junpeng who was sitting behind me. He seemed to enjoy mocking me.

"No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak."

Tang Xin glared at him angrily, and the latter was speechless.

"Thank you, Tang Xin, but there are a lot of housework to do when I get home, and I don't think I'll make it in time." Somehow I didn't want to see Tang Xin's disappointed look, so I had to tell her the truth.

"Is that so? Then you should review well. I will come to school. If you don't understand anything, you can come to school to ask me. I will be here until 9 o'clock."

"Thank you~ I'll tell you in advance if I come."

Tang Xin still looked a little worried, so she gave me a few instructions and left.

Being a class monitor is really hard. Seeing Tang Xin giving instructions to students with poor grades one by one, I felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Obviously, this kind of thing should be done by teachers, how can we let students do it?

…………

It seemed that because of the hot weather, the science teacher sent us home directly after the last class in the afternoon. It was almost five o'clock when we got home and cooked. So my aunt hadn't gotten off work yet, but I had already put the food on the table.

"Sister, why are we eating so early today?" Xiaoling, who was sitting at the dining table, looked at me with a puzzled look.

Can I say I don't know? Anyway, I was a little irritated and wanted to finish my housework as soon as possible.

"Auntie hasn't come yet. Shall we eat first?"

"Eat first. Just leave some dishes and rice for Auntie. Don't unplug the rice cooker. Keep it warm so the rice won't get cold."

"Sister, are you going out tonight?"

"Ok?"

It seems so. Deep down, he seems to want to go to evening self-study. Is it because of Tang Xin?

"Going out to play?"

"I want to go to school and study at night."

"Then Xiaoling, come wash the dishes. Sister can go after she finishes eating."

This? Can Xiaoling wash it clean? Is this okay?

Although she is already in elementary school, I would rather let her grow up without worries and not become the head of the family so early.

"I can do it. I've already contacted her in the home economics class at school." Xiaoling nodded solemnly, probably wanting me not to worry.

"If you finish your meal and your aunt hasn't come back yet, you can put a new bowl on top of the food. This way it won't get cold easily, and your aunt can still have hot food when she comes back. Got it?"

Finally, I agreed with Xiaoling's suggestion, gave her a few instructions, put on my backpack, and headed to school.

…………

The road to school was not easy to walk on late at night. It crossed the old housing area of ​​the entire city. The road surface was bumpy and almost all gravel, and most of the street lights had been in disrepair for a long time and were not lit.

By the time I got to the classroom, it was already six o'clock in the evening. I felt it was a miracle that I could reach the classroom safely without falling. This was really my first time to attend evening self-study in junior high school, including in my previous life.

When Teacher Ye saw me standing outside the classroom door, he widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe what was happening. The same thing happened to the students sitting in the class, whispering to each other, probably talking about something very impolite.
