"You didn't teach well in the first place." Tong Yusui had no choice. Physics was her worst subject. I heard that her score in physics was 110 in the college entrance examination. It was really worrying!

Lu Feifan choked and was speechless. After a while, he continued, "You happen to be in front of me. Listen to my physics lectures after class. At least give me a passing grade in physics. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing for me."

Being the top student in physics in the class, he did have a say. Of course, Xia Zhuomian felt that it didn't matter whether he taught or not, because he could teach it himself!

"Lu Feifan, let me switch places with you!"

"Why?"

"No."

The two people in front of him turned around and glared at him instantly. They had only asked in a low voice, but now everyone knew everything. Everyone couldn't help but look in their direction. Xia Zhuomian's face felt a little hot, and he quickly took out a book to cover his face.

As if he hadn't said it.

Luo Qingqing opened her mouth wide and looked at her new deskmate. In fact, she was very happy when she knew that her deskmate was Tong Yusui. Now seeing her lively appearance, she was even happier. She was just a little envious of her for being able to make friends with someone who was good at studying.

Wouldn’t it be great if I could ask questions anytime and anywhere without feeling embarrassed?

"Have you and Xia Zhuomian known each other since childhood? He is very nice to you." Luo Qingqing looked at her with some envy. Why doesn't she have a childhood sweetheart who is a top student?

"I'm so bad at studying, he helps me."

"I know, that's what makes people more envious!" Luo Qingqing didn't think about anything else, and neither did anyone else. The main reason was that they had all seen people in love, those people couldn't wait to stick to each other all day long, hugging each other, clinging to each other, and occasionally doing things that were inappropriate for children. In short, they were extremely sticky.

However, Luo turned his head slightly and glanced at Xia Zhuomian again, with a thoughtful look like Detective Conan, stroking his chin calmly, "I think he might like you."

"Ahem." Tong Yusui suddenly choked on her own saliva. She sat up straight. "What are you talking about? We are all students."

"So what? We have one in our class." Luo Qingqing came up and revealed a big news. Tong Yusui exclaimed in surprise. She was too careless about her classmates and didn't notice anything for so long.

But she quickly calmed her expression and gently patted Luo Qingqing's arm, "Hurry up and study, and stop thinking about those trivial things."

Luo Qingqing instantly lost all energy, said "Oh" listlessly and went back to study honestly, but as he watched, he couldn't help but laugh.

It seems that she also likes gossip. Hehe, as a fellow traveler, there is hope that she can be persuaded to rebel.

After class, the two of them left the classroom one after the other.

"Why don't you let me change seats? Don't you want to sit with me?"

"No, you chose your own seat. Why would you change the seat you chose?"

"But..." Xia Zhuomian was at a loss for words. The next second, he returned to his previous state, his tone a little aggressive, "You did it on purpose. You don't want to sit with me anymore."

There was something oddly agitated about his manner.

Tong Yusui held his hand and patiently comforted him, "Do you want to spend your entire high school career like this? Just the two of us?"

"Is it not good for just the two of us?"

Xia Zhuomian felt like he was about to cry, and he squeezed her hand tightly to draw strength from it.

Tong Yusui paused. She felt something was very wrong with Xia Zhuomian. She gently pulled him over to sit on a nearby chair. "What's wrong with you? Why do I feel like you're so anxious? Just because I'm not sitting with you?"

He seems very insecure.

"I, I don't know." Xia Zhuomian didn't know how to explain his worries and fears. Now when he heard Sui Sui ask him, he suddenly felt a little empty in his heart.

"I wanted to talk to you about the current situation between us before. We should both have our own lives. You shouldn't put all your focus on me, just like you forgot to tell Aunt Guan about Yu Cai's past life. If you pay more attention to these things, you won't forget them!"

Tong Yusui stared at him, and Xia Zhuomian lowered his head in silence.

"You should have had good friends in your previous high school life. We can see more of the outside world, make some good friends, and relax. You've already gone back to the past. Didn't you say before that the future would be different?"

"I..." Xia Zhuomian grabbed the wood under the chair with his left hand. Tong Yusui felt that his hand was very cold.

After a long moment, he finally spoke, "I, I always feel like my current life is a dream, a long-lasting dream caused by your departure. In this dream, you are alive, your parents are alive, and we are all fine. But I know that my mother is dead, my father is gone too, and only you, perhaps you are still alive. I, I am so afraid that one day I will wake up and return to that empty, hopeless reality."

"Tell me, is there really such a magical thing in the world? I go back to the past, back to the original point where nothing happened, and we can change the future?" His voice became more and more urgent, staring at Tong Yusui closely, trying to give himself a greater sense of security through her answer.

Tong Yusui was silent. She paused for a few seconds and said, "Actually, I don't believe it either, but I know that I am real, and you are real too. That's enough."

"Is this enough?" he murmured to himself.

"Of course." Tong Yusui nodded and squeezed his hand. "Touch me, my hand is soft and warm. There won't be such things in dreams."

"And even if this is a dream, we should still live it happily with a smile on our faces. Even dreaming leaves us with regrets. Xia Zhuomian, how can you be even more of a coward than me?"

When Xia Zhuomian heard this, his nose felt sore. He was indeed a coward.

He was frightened by the successive deaths of his relatives. Tong Yusui appeared and saved him, which made him extremely dependent. In his previous life, he had been going to school because school was safer. He had always been protected by Tong Yusui and had never left this circle of protection. Therefore, it was inevitable that he lacked the courage to face things independently and became a bird in a cage.

That's why he always sticks to Suisui after his rebirth. Not only because he is needed, but also because Xia Zhuomian feels at ease only when he is with her.

Tong Yusui saw him crying, his porcelain-white face filled with a hint of sadness, like a lost lamb. Tong Yusui gently hugged him and comforted him.

The bell for class had rung long ago and the campus was empty. The two of them sat under a tree, leaning on each other.

"Okay, don't be sad." Seeing that the time was almost up, Tong Yusui let him go and helped wipe the tears from his face.

"It's okay to go back a little later. If you go back too late, the teacher will come out to look for you."

The gentle sunlight shone through the leaves onto her body in circles. She was immersed in the light, like a soft-hearted god. Xia Zhuomian's heart suddenly began to pound, and he stared blankly at her as she gently wiped his tears.

Her eyes are beautiful and gentle, as dazzling as a pair of gems. There is no fierceness in her eyes, no wrinkles between her brows, she does not frown subconsciously when she is quiet, and she does not look subconsciously fierce when she looks at people.
