NOVEL SIMPLE
Chapter 2
Silence.
The entire class fell silent.
You could hear a pin drop.
Their classmates gaped in shock, their eyes wide open.
Unbelievable!
The school beauty, Gu Muxi, had been forcefully kissed by Yi Feng!
Oh my God! Has the world gone mad?
Yi Feng felt the warm touch from his lips and paused, stunned.
Huh? Can he even feel things in dreams?
He licked his lips.
Holy crap, it even tastes sweet!
Do dreams even have the sense of taste?!
Yi Feng pulled back, looking at Gu Muxi, whose cheeks were as red as apples, and exclaimed in astonishment, “This, this isn’t a dream?”
“Yi! Feng!”
Gu Muxi’s cheeks were flaming. She angrily pushed him away and then threw him over her shoulder with a perfect judo flip!
“Bang!”
Yi Feng hit the ground hard, the pain in his back snapping him fully to consciousness.
He looked at the classroom ceiling, then at the astonished faces of his classmates, and finally at the date on the school bulletin board at the back of the room.
April 12, 2000.
He finally concluded in his heart.
I’ve been reborn!
Reborn back to the year 2000, the millennium!
He clearly remembered, in this year, Gu Muxi was eighteen years old.
This year, they were about to take the college entrance exam, with only 69 days left!
Yi Feng raised his hands, looking at his somewhat pale and slender arms, and couldn’t help but laugh.
I’ve really been reborn!
Since heaven has given me another chance, this life, I’ll live even more splendidly, without regrets.
And I can’t miss Gu Muxi again!
“Yi Feng, have you lost your mind?” Gu Muxi appeared in his field of view, her little face flushed, looking down at him from above.
“Hello there, Gu Muxi!” Yi Feng grinned.
Gu Muxi paused, “Hello what? What nonsense are you talking about?”
She squatted down, grabbed Yi Feng’s hand, and twisted it behind his back in a lock.
“Speak, why did you take advantage of me just now!”
“Ow ow ow, let go first!”
“You first say!”
“With so many people watching, aren’t you embarrassed? Let go first!”
Gu Muxi glanced around and indeed saw the entire class staring at them.
Their gazes were indescribably weird.
She felt uncomfortable under those stares and reluctantly let Yi Feng go.
If it weren’t for all these people watching, I would have torn you apart!
Yi Feng stood up, gasping in pain, rubbing his wrist.
Gu Muxi is still as violent as ever!
Still the familiar childhood sweetheart from my memories!
“Say it, why did you take advantage of me?” Gu Muxi wiped her mouth so hard she nearly broke the skin.
Yi Feng had a lot to say to her, but seeing Gu Muxi’s angry face, he swallowed his words.
Would confessing now… mean we can’t even be friends?
Although they joked around on normal days, bringing up romantic feelings might jeopardize their relationship.
In his memories, from childhood through to this awkward phase of high school, he had never seen her as a girl.
Similarly, it seemed Gu Muxi never saw him as a boy…
He didn’t know what Gu Muxi was thinking now. If their relationship changed too suddenly, could it backfire?
Thinking this, Yi Feng decided he couldn’t rush things and needed to understand Gu Muxi’s feelings first.
“Um… I was dreaming just now. I dreamt that you fell into a pit, so I got excited and wanted to give you CPR…” Yi Feng made up an excuse.
Gu Muxi: “…”
She pinched a bunch of soft flesh at Yi Feng’s waist, “You’re the one who fell into a pit!”
Yi Feng winced in pain, “Don’t be scared, I pulled you out in the dream!”
Gu Muxi glared at him, about to strangle him, when the class teacher, Zhao Xue, strode into the classroom.
“Class is starting!”
Teacher Zhao Xue, who taught mathematics, was somewhat old-fashioned and strict. As the class teacher, he was very strict with students, so they all feared him.
They even gave him a nickname behind his back, Demon King Zhao.
The students dared not talk about Yi Feng and Gu Muxi anymore.
Gu Muxi glared at Yi Feng before hurrying back to her seat.
Yi Feng’s seat was right behind hers, and he too sat down.
“Brother Feng, what you just did… was awesome!”
“You actually kissed the school beauty Gu Muxi!”
His desk mate, Wang Tie, leaned over, grinning and whispering in admiration.
Yi Feng turned his head to look at the honest face in front of him, proudly saying, “You don’t see your brother Feng’s courage!”
Wang Tie chuckled, scratching his head, “If only I had half of your courage”
Wang Tie, Yi Feng’s good buddy and high school best friend, the two of them always hung out together and got along the best.
“Brother Feng, kissing the school beauty Gu Muxi, such a heroic deed, will definitely spread throughout the school quickly!” Wang Tie said excitedly.
Yi Feng then remembered, crap, doesn’t that make me the public enemy of all the boys in school? Gu Muxi was the most beautiful girl in Taoyuan Middle School, with countless admirers and fans. However, due to Gu Muxi’s aloof and domineering character, she never gave any suitor a chance.
But those admirers were persistent, her desk would receive several love letters, a few roses, and some chocolate candies every now and then.
One of the perks of hanging out with her was never running out of chocolates, candies, and biscuits.
Thinking he might become the public enemy of Gu Muxi’s admirers, Yi Feng felt his teeth ache.
But, I’m someone who has died and come back to life, what’s there to fear!
Having lived for several decades, dealing with these kids was more than manageable.
“Wang Tie, if someone sends you a challenge letter or something, remember to throw it away, don’t give it to me,” Yi Feng instructed.
“Ah? What challenge letter?” Wang Tie’s thought process was slow, not catching on yet.
Yi Feng: “…”
Wang Tie was a good guy, just too simple.
“Don’t ask, just do as I say when the time comes,” Yi Feng waved his hand.
His gaze fell back on Gu Muxi in front of him, just in time to see a hint of pink under her white school uniform.
He couldn’t help but remember his middle school days when he became curious about girls’ underwear and how it supported weight. Sometimes, he couldn’t resist pulling on the straps of Gu Muxi’s bra from behind.
Just that the quality of that bra might have been poor, as it broke immediately…
For that, Gu Muxi chased him for days…
Thinking back on these embarrassing past events, Yi Feng’s lips curled into a silly smile.
“Brother Feng, what’s so funny?” Wang Tie saw him smiling foolishly and asked curiously.
Yi Feng chuckled, whispering, “Wang Tie, be honest, do Gu Muxi and I match?”
“Match, definitely match! Brother Feng, you’re handsome, majestic, elegant, and charismatic…”
“Stop, stop, stop, if you can’t use idioms properly, don’t misuse them!”
Wang Tie scratched his head, earnestly saying, “Er… honestly, I think you two really match well. Look, in the entire school, how many boys can talk to the school beauty Gu Muxi?”
“Apart from Feng bro, there’s no one else!”
“I see you two get along well on normal days, a perfect match!”
Yi Feng patted his shoulder, very satisfied, “You’re right, remember, from now on, Gu Muxi is your sister-in-law!”
“Hehe, yes, yes, brother Feng, good luck chasing her. Maybe you can teach me some skills too, teach me how to chase Xu Xiaoling!” Wang Tie nodded.
Xu Xiaoling, a flower of their class, was also Wang Tie’s secret crush.
In such an innocent period of youth, who doesn’t have a crush?
This is the thrill of youth!
“No problem, you’re my good brother, I’ll definitely help you!” Yi Feng patted his shoulder.
Suddenly, a piece of chalk flew over, hitting Yi Feng right on the forehead.
“Yi Feng, I’m teaching here, and you’re chatting in the back? Stand up!” Teacher Zhao Xue glared at him, sternly saying.
“Teacher, what’s up?” Yi Feng wiped his forehead.
Zhao Xue pointed to the math problem on the blackboard, “You solve this problem. If the complex number z=(x2+2x-3)+(x+3)i is imaginary, what is the value of the real number x?”
The rest of the class turned to look at him, many secretly laughing, knowing Yi Feng was ranked among the top ten in liberal arts but also among the last ten in math, so they all waited to see his embarrassment.
