Parallel Lines of Rebirth

Chapter 277: Bright eyes, shining for you and me

Views:

The next morning, Wen Liang got up on time at six o'clock and went to the master bedroom to check. His father had not returned home all night. Ding Mei was awakened by the sound of the door opening. She was half asleep and wanted to get up to cook for her son. Since his rebirth, Wen Liang's independence has made Ding Mei more and more lazy. The number of times he cooks can be counted by probability. Wen Liang stuck out his tongue, made a face at his mother, and went out to school.

Jogging along the sidewalk, you can see groups of people getting up early to exercise, mostly old men and women, with a few young people occasionally, all familiar faces, smiling and greeting each other, and then passing by. When passing by the Bayi store, Wen Liang turned in to have some breakfast. During this period, the store has added several new varieties, such as preserved egg porridge, eight-treasure porridge, spicy soup, etc., all of which are the unique secret recipes carefully developed by Li Shengli. The taste and flavor are much better than other stores, so the business is naturally more popular, so that you can see a long line in front of the door before opening every day.

Patting his stomach, Wen Liang stood by the roadside, feeling a little worried. It was not easy to exercise after eating, and his goal of running to school was ruined. If he walked, he would probably be late, and taking the bus was not what he wanted. While he was hesitating, bus No. 77 came slowly and stopped at the bus stop not far ahead. A girl in pink sportswear and white sneakers jumped off the bus and ran towards Wen Liang in a hurry.

"Jisu?"

Wen Liang didn't expect to meet Ji Su here. He took two steps towards her and said with a smile, "You are still sleepy this morning. You got off at the wrong station, beautiful lady!"

Ji Su looked a little haggard, obviously she didn't sleep well last night. She stood in front of Wen Liang, just looking at him foolishly, her eyes gradually starting to turn red.

Wen Liang knew that she was worried about him because of what happened yesterday. He was touched by the girl's thoughtfulness and lost the mood to joke. He said softly: "Okay, you see I'm fine, don't you worry..."

Ji Su didn't know what was wrong with her. She looked into Wen Liang's eyes and listened to his gentle voice. She couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and they fell like a curtain of beads. Wen Liang sighed in her heart and raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her cheek. Somehow, she suddenly remembered a song she had heard in her previous life. The lyrics read: Whenever my fingers brushed across your smooth cheek, the boy's dream became a fairy tale. Under the long eyelashes, there was a pair of bright eyes, shining with our youthful flawlessness...

The two walked to school together. Ji Su said very little along the way, and Wen Liang was mostly talking nonsense. She listened quietly, occasionally turning her head to look at the boy and smiling softly.

It was almost eight o'clock when he arrived at school. As soon as he entered the school gate, Wen Liang noticed that the atmosphere was not right. From time to time, people he knew and didn't know pointed at him. Some were even more blatant, standing there and staring at Wen Liang. Their eyes were so sharp that they were completely worthy of the word "brother".

Ji Su really couldn't stand this weird atmosphere, so he slipped away from the other side without any loyalty. Wen Liang scratched his head. Although he had a fight with Gu Wenyuan yesterday, fighting was commonplace in Qingzhou, and it was impossible for it to cause such a high-profile situation today. He walked towards the classroom in confusion, and just after turning around the first row of office buildings, he accidentally bumped into a daredevil. The kid was tall and strong, and he was about to get angry when he raised his eyebrows. When he saw that it was Wen Liang, he shouted as if he saw an alien, "Wen Liang?"

Wen Liang was in a bad mood, glared at him and asked unhappily, "What's the matter?"

The sturdy man smiled awkwardly and said, "NB!" Then he turned around and ran away.

Wen Liang was stunned and scratched his head, confused.

As soon as the door of the classroom was opened, the room that was noisy just now immediately became quiet, as if time had stopped due to the Dinosaur Express. Everyone paused for a moment. A second later, Ren Yi took the lead in clapping, and the whole classroom burst into thunderous applause.

"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"

"Student Wen Liang, how do you feel about getting first place in the exam this time?"

"Brother Wen is awesome. You finally overthrew that little bitch Ji Xiaoling. I support you!"

"Wen Liang, thank you for bringing honor to our Class 3. Of course, mainly thank you for bringing honor to our male compatriots!"

Li Bao even ran over and took Wen Liang's hand, saying, "Thank you, thank you. I finally have this month's living expenses."

Amidst the chaos of voices, Wen Liang finally figured out the whole story. It turned out that the school had been distracted by the fight between him and Gu Wenyuan yesterday, and the midterm exam rankings were not officially announced until this morning. The big red list was posted on the bulletin board in front of the building, and it quickly spread to all the first-year students. Combined with what happened yesterday, the "non-additive law" that 1+1 is greater than 2 led to the scene that confused Wen Liang this morning.

In this high school era where grades are everything, good students are always more popular than bad students. Wen Liang's defeat of Gu Wenyuan may only make others fear him, but he can get respect from others by taking the first place in the grade. Especially since the first place in the grade is almost monopolized by Ji Xiaoling, Cheng Haijun, who has always been the second, has lost his fighting spirit due to being abused, and the male students are suppressed and can't raise their heads. Wen Liang's victory this time is no longer a personal victory, but a spiritual carnival for all the boys!

Sitting in his seat, Ji Su still couldn't hide his surprise, covering his mouth and looking at Wen Liang. Meng Ke also joked a few times, full of admiration. Only Ren Yi had a sad face, picking up a few dimes on the table, muttering: "One day of eating with Old Wen, one day of eating with Old Liu, and one day of eating buns, just enough to last three days..."

Wen Liang was extremely thick-skinned, but he was also ashamed by the innocent eyes of the two little sisters. He cheated just to make his life easier in the future, but he didn't expect the consequences to be so serious. He immediately changed the subject, tapped the table with his fingers, and asked, "Brother Ren, what are you planning by yourself?"

Ren Yi bit his lip, made an expression as if he was being raped, and said, "Brother Wen, since I lent you the movie "Stick King Ba Tycoon", can you please ask Boss Liu to forgive my gambling debt?"

Ji Su and Meng Ke's eyes widened at the same time. Wen Liang coughed lightly, secretly kicked Ren Yi, and explained to Ji Su and Meng Ke: "The Stick King Ba Da Tycoon is Jin Yong's new work, known as the fourth classic after the trilogy of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, and The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber..."

Ji and Su didn't like to read these things, so they were finally fooled by Wen Liang. In fact, "Stick King Ba Tycoon" is a novel by Song Baisheng. Mr. Song is also very famous. In the 1980s and 1990s, Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts were divided into ten major schools, and Jin Gu, Wen Liang, Wolong Sheng, Yun Zhongyue, Sima Ling, Chen Qingyun, etc. almost monopolized all kinds of readers. But why did Mr. Song still show up? Because he is a thorough erotic school - not the kind of eroticism of the mandarin duck and butterfly school, but the real eroticism!

Of course, Uncle Wen, who had been influenced by major forums in later generations, disdained Song Baisheng's straightforward and stiff description style. The reason he flipped through it was just to make up for the regret of not having read such books in high school in his previous life.

Who would have thought that Ren Yi would say that in front of Ji Meng and the others? Wen Liang was so angry that he said righteously, "What happened to Liu Zhihe? Is he gambling again? I despise him for you!"

Ren Yi said dejectedly: "Liu Zhihe made a bet based on the ranking of this exam. There are five candidates for the first place. Your odds are the highest at 1:3..."

"Depend on!"

Wen Liang was speechless. Liu Zhihe knew that he would cheat. Wasn't it obvious that he was cheating by opening such a bet? The most unfortunate thing was that he didn't even know about it. No wonder Li Bao wanted to thank him. He must have bet on the right person...

"Brother Ren, you are being mean again. You bet on Ji Xiaoling, and ended up losing miserably, right? I ask, will you die if you bet on me once?"

Ren Yi felt guilty and said, "Don't be angry, or I'll give you a smile..."

"Get lost!"

During class, teachers of almost every subject praised Wen Liang. The world of teachers is naturally not as simple as that of students. It is interesting to ponder how much of this praise is for academic performance and how much is for the family strength that is not inferior to Gu Wenyuan's as shown in the fight.

The first class in the morning was math class. The old math teacher, who wore reading glasses, unfortunately admitted his mistake and praised Ren Yi. Ren Yi lowered his head in resignation. He no longer had the mind to resist this unreliable teacher.

Wen Liangna was concentrating on writing something when Ji Su suddenly poked his arm. He turned around and saw the words written on the open homework book: You really got first place

Wen Liang smiled and wrote casually at the back: Yes, the person above, don’t you still believe this ironclad fact

Ji Su's face showed a cute look of distress, and he wrote at the end: It's not that I don't believe you, I believe you can do anything... It's just that Ji Xiaoling has always been our idol, and suddenly like this, I feel a little...

Yeah, I understand. I've had the confusion of having my idol shattered, too!

You? Have you ever worshipped someone

Wen Liang paused, then turned to look at Ji Su. The girl's hair was tied behind her head, with long sideburns under her earlobes. Her fair and clean skin was as soft and smooth as a young girl's, with a delicate nose and round cheeks. She looked like a painting of a lady drawn by a brilliant brush, seeming dreamy and real, vivid and moving.

Wen Liang smiled slightly, and the ballpoint pen scratched across the rough paper, making a hissing sound: Of course, but you would never guess that the person I once admired the most was myself...

Ji Su almost laughed out loud again, rolled her eyes at him, and with a little bit of charm in her expression, she wrote: Bah!

No, I used to think I was omnipotent and omniscient, until I met a girl. She was very proud and beautiful, and the way she looked at me was as if she was looking at the air. From then on, my perception of myself was shattered... Do you know who this girl is

When Ji Su heard him bringing up old matters, his eyes rolled around and he wrote on the paper: Let me guess, is it Xu Yao

Wen Liang praised: "Student Ji Su, you really learned bad things from me!"

Ji Su chuckled, with ripples in his eyes, as if he had mustered up great courage, and wrote: I told you, if you get first place in the exam this time, I will give you a surprise.

Before Wen Liang could react, a small hand reached out from under the table and quietly placed on his thigh.
