Rebirth: Those Years When I Was a Bad Student

Zhang Wentian hadn't come up yet, so she simply walked under the tree and ate popsicles while enjoying the cool air.

In less than three minutes, she finished an ice lolly.

I started drawing on the ground with a popsicle stick to pass the time.

Suddenly a wheel came into view, and when I looked up, it was Zhang Wentian.

At this moment, he was looking down at Zhang Yumian's masterpiece. Zhang Yumian stood up and quickly swept away the traces on the ground with his feet. He glanced at the watch on his right wrist, coughed twice, and murmured, "Well, you are quite punctual."

Because of the weather, his forehead was covered with sweat. Zhang Yumian took out a tissue from his school uniform pocket and handed it to him.

Then he walked straight to the store opposite.

Zhang Wentian looked at his deskmate's back and felt something was wrong. His deskmate usually spoke very little and was often alone, but today he was really strange. Not only did he take the initiative to answer questions, he also took the initiative to talk to him.

The most important thing is that she agreed to take her home. Doesn’t she usually blush and stutter when talking to boys?

Zhang Wentian scratched his head and muttered, "Did she change her career, or is she possessed by a ghost?"

Zhang Yumian came out of the store and saw him mumbling to himself. She walked over and handed him a popsicle. "Here you go, for the bus fare."

After Zhang Wentian took it, Zhang Yumian turned around from behind him, walked to the front of the car body and said slowly, "Let me push it. You eat first or it will melt in a while. After you finish eating, you can take me."

Zhang Yumian turned her head and looked at Zhang Wentian again. She originally thought that her skin was quite dark, but compared to him, her skin was quite fair. It turned out that there was no harm without comparison.

He doesn't look tall now. The last time I saw him was when he graduated from junior high school. He was quite tall then.

Being able to grow so tall in just two years, Zhang Yumian suddenly felt hopeful that he could grow taller too.

Zhang Wentian felt a little embarrassed when she looked at him, and he touched his red ears. "I'm good-looking, so you don't have to peek at me while I'm walking, right? Why didn't you see enough of me at school?"

Zhang Yumian pushed the bicycle to his side and said lazily, "Remember to go home after school today and buy a bottle of eye drops, wash your eyes, and look in the mirror."

In fact, Zhang Wentian looks pretty good, with three-dimensional facial features and a clear jawline.

He was a decent person, but he was a bit rude. The 13-year-old Zhang Yumian was timid and self-conscious, so she often avoided him and never took the initiative to talk to him. The key point was that he kept nagging in your ear every day, so you always had a bad impression of him.

Zhang Wentian opened and closed his mouth, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself, which made Zhang Yumian feel uncomfortable.

Ask directly: "If you have something to say, please say it quickly. I see you have been holding it in for a long time. Don't you feel uncomfortable?"

Zhang Wentian said slowly: "Why don't you come to my house after school today? You know that my grandfather is a yin and yang master. You have been acting strange since this morning. Now you seem like a different person. You would never talk like this before. Actually... Actually, I now suspect that you are possessed by a ghost."

Zhang Wentian's grandfather was quite famous in the area within dozens of miles, and many people came to him for Feng Shui advice.

Their family also moved here a few years ago. They were in the same primary school class. This guy brags every day about how great his grandfather is and how he wants to inherit his grandfather's legacy in the future.

Zhang Yumian suddenly wanted to scare him, and said seriously, "Student Zhang, you figured this out. You are very brave to go with me and even ride a bike to give me a ride."

Zhang Wentian stiffened his neck and said, "I'm definitely not afraid. My grandfather is a great man. I have a seal drawn by his master. If a ghost dares to get close to me, it will be courting death."

Zhang Yumian: “…”

As he said that, he took out a purse from his neck. Zhang Yumian took it and took a look out of curiosity. There really was a piece of yellow talisman paper inside.

Zhang Yumian raised his eyes and said jokingly: "The ghost entering your body can only reincarnate as soon as possible. After all, he is already dead."

Zhang Wentian looked his deskmate up and down and asked tentatively, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhang Yumian said firmly: "I'm not feeling unwell anywhere, and didn't I just look at your spell? When did you hear that ghosts can be exposed to the sun in broad daylight?"

Zhang Wentian thought about it and agreed, but he was still curious as to why a person could change so much overnight.

Zhang Yumian saw through his doubts and whispered in his ear with a sincere face: "I am not possessed by a ghost. Actually, I am a resurrected soul."

Zhang Wentian leaned back, his right foot also stepped back subconsciously, and his expression looked a little stiff. Zhang Yumian stopped smiling and said jokingly: "No way, your grandfather is a yin and yang master, why are you so timid." Then he stepped forward and patted his shoulder and continued, "Okay, I just lied to you."

She walked over and sat on the back of the bicycle, urging him, "Let's go, or we'll be late. Don't worry, I'm a human, not a ghost."

As for why he had changed so much, he explained: "My cousin called me yesterday and told me a lot about college life. She told me to study hard, go to another city to see more of the world. Suddenly I woke up and thought I should study hard. After all, studying is the quickest way for us. She told me to be confident and generous, and I think she is right. The political class a few days ago also talked about self-confidence, self-conceit, and self-reliance. You should understand."

I wanted to explain that this morning I had fallen asleep in class and had a dream, so I talked nonsense when I woke up, but he didn't ask.

After thinking it over again and again, I decided not to say anything to avoid adding unnecessary details.

Suddenly I remembered that the little boy in front of me was only thirteen years old.

Zhang Yumian felt that the atmosphere was quite awkward, a thirty-year-old old lady was here giving chicken soup to a thirteen-year-old boy.

Zhang Wentian nodded. "I understand. I understand. My cousin is also in college and she told me the same thing."

After he stepped on the pedal, he just told Zhang Yumian to sit tight.

Zhang Wentian pondered over what his deskmate had just said and felt that it made a lot of sense.

Studying hard is not enough to prepare for college entrance exams. He also wants to see the brightly lit big cities on TV and experience the colorful college life. Although he wants to inherit his grandfather's legacy, it does not prevent him from going out to explore the world.

My desk mate is right. We should be more confident and bold, otherwise we will easily suffer losses outside.

My grandfather always said that we should not be too timid, otherwise we will be easily bullied.

Now that I think about it, it’s good that she is like this today. At least she is much better than before when she was so taciturn.

Is this what they call enlightenment?

Thinking of this, he turned around and glanced at Zhang Yumian.

Zhang Yumian would never have thought that he would have such an insight, but he just felt that he needed to be careful with what he said in the future.

After all, she is only thirteen years old now.

But who would have thought that there was a thirty-year-old soul living in Thirteen's body.

Even if her parents think she has changed too much in the future, they can hire a fortune teller and it shouldn't be a big deal.

No matter what, she is her.

Neither of them spoke along the way.

It was already 2:30 when I arrived at school, and class was about to start in fifteen minutes.

Since you have decided to be a good student, start changing now.
