Rebirth: Back to before my girlfriend dropped out of school

Outside, the sky was covered with black stars and dim. Even some of the street lights in the distance flickered for a few seconds. This place, which was as bright as day, became special. All the mourners had left, leaving only the young man kneeling on the ground.

He looked young, thin, with a circle of white on his black clothes that was even more noticeable. He knelt toward the mourning hall, his thin back hunched, his head lowered so low that his face could not be seen. He rarely moved, like a silent statue...

In front of him was a black, featureless jar. Behind the jar was a black and white photo of a young woman. She was looking into the distance, not knowing what she saw. Her brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of hostility between her eyebrows. She didn't look like someone who was easy to get along with.

………………

"What am I doing..." Xia Zhuomian looked at his hands in a trance. The familiar bedroom and the familiar face seemed to indicate...

"Back in time?"

He raised his head again to check himself in the mirror. The boy in the mirror had some baby fat and bright eyes. He looked like he had never suffered any hardship. Suffering, yes, mother.

Xia Zhuomian suddenly rushed to the living room. There were sounds of food cooking in the kitchen. He could only see a figure through the kitchen glass, but he couldn't tell who it was. Xia Zhuomian was too afraid that it was a dream. He hadn't seen his mother for a long, long time.

His hands were shaking, but he still walked in slowly, little by little, into that dreamlike world.

Hearing the sound, Xia's mother turned her head and saw her son coming over and said gently, "Xiaomian, wake up. The meal will be ready soon. I fried two poached eggs for you. They are your favorite, runny ones."

It’s really mom. Xia Zhuomian stood there stupidly, not daring to get close or speak, for fear that she would be awakened from her dream.

After finishing her work, Xia's mother walked out with the things in her hand. Seeing her son still standing there stupidly without saying a word, she said with a smile, "What's wrong with you today? Are you stupid? Why do you look so absent-minded?"

"No...no." Xia Zhuomian woke up as if in shock and immediately followed.

His mother went to call his father. Xia Zhuomian felt a warm touch on everything around him. This house carried all his memories from childhood to adulthood, but in the end, it was sold...

Looking at his father who came out, he was very young, without any gray hair caused by his mother's illness, and his face still had the warm smile of his childhood, but Xia Zhuomian didn't know how to face him.

At the dinner table, his mother and father occasionally spoke, but Xia Zhuomian was silent. When he was about to go to school after dinner, his mother couldn't help but touch his forehead and asked worriedly, "Why do you look so listless today? Are you sick?"

That hand was warm, carrying a scent that belonged only to his mother. Xia Zhuomian wanted to hug her and act like a spoiled child like he used to, to tell her about his sadness and shock, but in the end he did nothing. He clenched his hands tightly at his sides and tried his best to appear calm, "Mom, I'm fine."

He turned around, tears in his eyes, and rushed to the bedroom.

Soon, he was about to leave with his schoolbag on his back. His mother gave him lunch money. She took out a twenty-yuan note, looked at her son, and gave him another twenty-yuan note. "If you really don't feel well, take the bus back."

Xia Zhuomian looked at the money in her mother's hand and finally couldn't help but rush over to hug her mother, "Thank you, Mom."

"Why is this kid so sentimental today?" Mother Xia was also stunned. She gently touched her son's head to comfort him. Seeing her son embarrassedly running out of the house the next second, she couldn't help laughing, but didn't think much about it.

After going out, Xia Zhuomian breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy, but he didn't know who to share this joy with. He thought of someone and couldn't help but walk in another direction.

If he really goes back to the past, the person he wants to see most is that person.

The two of them were not in the same city. She lived in a very remote county town. After sitting in the car for a whole morning, Xia Zhuomian finally arrived at the destination with a sore back.

The conditions here don't look very good at first glance. When they got there, it was already noon and school was over. People were coming out one after another. Xia Zhuomian took a few glances, then turned around and went to a secluded corner. In school, students need a pass or a leave note to go out for lunch, otherwise they are not allowed to go out at will. In the past, Xia Zhuomian always heard her talk about her great achievements, saying that she had found many good places to sneak out.

After waiting for a long time, he finally saw a girl climbing over the wall. The girl was frightened when she saw someone outside and stopped jumping down.

She looked a little thin, but her face contained an innocence that he had never seen before. She was looking at him with her head tilted.

"Are you going to climb the wall to go back to school? Just go back through the main gate. The security guard won't check you. It's not easy to climb back here." She kindly reminded.

"Ah, I, I'm not." This person was so different from the one in his memory that Xia Zhuomian was a little hesitant to recognize him.

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a voice from inside, "That girl over there, come down here quickly."

"Oh no," the girl said in frustration, supporting herself against the wall with one hand. "Classmate, please move aside and let me get down first."

As she said this, she jumped down decisively. The height of one or two meters seemed particularly easy for her.

"Which class are you from?" The voice was getting closer and closer. The girl quickly grabbed the person and ran away. "Run quickly, don't let the teacher catch you."

Xia Zhuomian was dragged along like this for a long time, and only stopped when the girl turned left and right into an alley.

Xia Zhuomian was out of breath after being dragged so far away unexpectedly. The girl didn't say much. She let him go when she was safe and walked forward alone.

Xia Zhuomian came to find her and naturally would not let her leave alone, so he hurried to catch up. However, the person in front seemed to realize that someone was chasing her, so she gave up slowing down and ran forward as if there were tigers and wolves chasing her from behind.

"Wait, wait for me." Seeing that she was about to turn into the alley, Xia Zhuomian was dumbfounded. "Tong Yusui, wait for me, I have something to talk to you about." He shouted anxiously.

The wonderful recognition he had expected did not happen, and he knew that he was being guarded against.

Tong Yusui finally stopped when he called her name, turned around and looked at Xia Zhuomian carefully, "Do you know me? You don't look familiar, I don't know you."

Besides, he doesn't look like he's from our school.

So good.

Xia Zhuomian took two steps forward and licked his dry lips. Countless thoughts were swirling in his mind, but he didn't know how to explain them.

Five minutes passed, and he still didn't speak. Tong Yusui became anxious and couldn't wait any longer. "Classmate, I have something else to do. I have to leave first."

After saying that, she ran forward quickly, her figure carrying the wind, looking free.

Xia Zhuomian had been thinking about the words for a long time but still couldn't say them, which made him a little depressed. After looking at his current location for a long time, he finally found the direction. He found a small restaurant to eat and wait for her to come back. He must have a good chat with her and encourage her to study hard. It was a lifelong regret for her that she didn't go to college in her previous life, and she must not miss it this time.

On the other side, Tong Yusui cooked the meal skillfully, packed it up and took it to the hospital. His mother was about to give birth and had been waiting in the hospital for the next two days.
