Chapter 75

"No one, just sit down."

Without waiting for Li Zhuangsheng to speak, Lin Yuehua accepted it.

She recognized Hu Mengdie. Who in this school didn’t know Hu Mengdie?

The leader who was very beautiful, had many friends, was liked by many boys, was the talk of others, and stood on the rostrum shining brightly. She was also the one that Lin Yuehua envied.

Unlike herself who has a bad temper and is gloomy, she is like the protagonist of a youth film... However, although Lin Yuehua occasionally envies and admires Hu Mengdie, she does not really take it to heart.

She has what she wants, but people like Hu Mengdie are not her target.

"OK, thanks!"

Hu Mengdie sat down next to Li Zhuangsheng with a smile on her face, holding the food tray, while Lin Yuehua lowered her head and ate slowly.

Perhaps because of their previous shyness, Lin Yuehua and Li Zhuangsheng ate in a much more elegant manner when they were together. Now with Hu Mengdie by their side, they ate even slower.

Li Zhuangsheng also lowered his head and ate in silence. He felt that Hu Mengdie was a little too close to him, so he moved his butt slightly.

Hu Mengdie asked gently: "Li Zhuangsheng, how is your recovery going?"

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he had just taken a two-week leave a few days ago.

"It's fine... Nothing's wrong now." Li Zhuangsheng didn't even raise his head and shoveled the food into his mouth.

"Take good care of yourself and don't get hurt again," said Hu Mengdie.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Oh, I forgot to ask, is this your classmate?"

"Ah, yes, she is now my mentor in study."

"I see. That's good. But you just got out of the hospital, so don't work too hard."

"Well, it's okay."

The two chatted casually. Hu Mengdie asked a question and Li Zhuangsheng answered it without saying more.

Lin Yuehua occasionally looked up, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes. Are these two people familiar with each other?
If they were familiar with each other, why was the chat so awkward? If they were not familiar with each other, was Hu Mengdie too outgoing?

She wanted to ask Li Zhuangsheng what he was going to say, but seeing that he was talking to Hu Mengdie, she didn't want to interrupt. But the atmosphere was really awkward, like two lovers who were once the closest to each other, meeting again after a long separation, and being like strangers yet still connected.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but speed up her eating, intending to leave here early.

Li Zhuangsheng on the other side felt even more uncomfortable. The invisible pressure around him made him completely lose his appetite.

He didn't know the purpose of Hu Mengdie's trip, he only knew that she was reborn like him.

But why are you sticking to me after your rebirth? I am just a loser, there are so many of you, it is really not worth your looking back! Good horses never turn back to eat grass, you are different from me, it’s not that there are no men who want you, go and look for those better men! Li Zhuangsheng laughed at himself helplessly in his heart, and sighed helplessly.

"I'll go back to class first." Lin Yuehua put down her chopsticks.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Li Zhuangsheng quickly stuffed the remaining food into his mouth and swallowed it with difficulty, "Let's go back together."

"Li Zhuangsheng, let's go for a walk together." Hu Mengdie raised her head, gently grasped Li Zhuangsheng's hand, and smiled slightly. Her soft smile showed that she could not be refused. "I have something to talk to you about."

"But, I want to study, I..." Li Zhuangsheng showed an awkward smile on his face.

"It won't take you too long." "But my master will be unhappy. We agreed that we have to do dictation when we get back later."

Hu Mengdie looked at Lin Yuehua sincerely and asked, "Excuse me, can I borrow Li Zhuangsheng for a while? It will be quick and won't delay you for long."

No, no, no, don't agree to it! Li Zhuangsheng immediately signaled to Lin Yuehua with his eyes.

"Okay, we can do the dictation of the words later." Lin Yuehua nodded in agreement.

Lin Yuehua totally failed to understand Li Zhuangsheng's expression of asking for help. Perhaps in her eyes, Li Zhuangsheng was desperately asking for her consent.

After all, Li Zhuangsheng was worried that he would stop Hu Mengdie's invitation.

What are you thinking? I'm not completely unkind! Besides, Hu Mengdie's attitude is so good, and the reason doesn't make sense!
After Lin Yuehua finished speaking, she stood up and left, no longer being a "light bulb" for the two of them.

"Thank you, Master." Hu Mengdie smiled sweetly behind her.

Lin Yuehua hummed softly without stopping, but she felt a little uncomfortable, as if... someone had taken her seat.

Li Zhuangsheng is quite popular with girls. Zhu Zhixue likes him, and Hu Mengdie also looks for him... No wonder people always call him the school hunk.

"What do you mean by 'thank you, Master'? Can you please stop acting like a wife and take it for granted that my Master is your Master?" Li Zhuangsheng complained bitterly in his heart, but in action he could only follow Hu Mengdie obediently.

He thought about just running away, but that would be too obvious and Hu Mengdie would definitely notice.

Li Zhuangsheng didn't know what happened the night before his rebirth. He only remembered that after Hu Mengke confessed his love to him, he met Zhu Zhixue again ten years later. After seeing Zhu Zhixue off, he used the last bit of his battery to call Hu Mengdie to come to the park... He seemed to have seen Hu Mengdie in the park, but he had no memory of what happened afterwards.

Perhaps the two of them were reborn from this moment, so they were still husband and wife on the surface, and he was just having a quarrel. Hu Mengdie would never understand the surging emotions in his heart.

But now, he couldn't speak even if he wanted to.

Some things are done with great effort at first, then with less effort, and finally with exhaustion. At the age of 26, he returns to the age of 16. Looking back on his life, he feels that it will be smooth sailing and beautiful. He really cannot muster the courage to fight to the death.

Besides, if I really have to confess after my rebirth, I would be like a heartless scumbag who abandoned his beloved wife after my rebirth.

It's not like he doesn't have other options now. Hu Mengdie might have come to him just out of a sense of responsibility. As long as he pretends to be stupid and lets her get frustrated... she will naturally find that she now has many better options.

It is better to forget each other than to live together in misery. Isn't it?

Although this would make him feel very sad...but for Hu Mengdie, this is the best outcome.

Li Zhuangsheng hopes Hu Mengdie can be happy more than himself.

"It's really a coincidence, isn't it?"

Hu Mengdie, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.

"Ah...what?" Li Zhuangsheng came back to his senses, his face confused and embarrassed.

Lunch time is over and most students have returned to class. Except for the basketball court, the campus seems empty.

Hu Mengdie stared at the other person with a smile: "Let me tell you our names. Your name is Zhuang Sheng and mine is Mengdie. We are so destined to be together. We are a match made in heaven!"

"This, this is just a coincidence..." Li Zhuangsheng scratched his head, smiling stiffly, "Besides, Zhuangsheng Mengdie...can't be considered a pair, right?"
