Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

True beauty doesn't need any adornment to look good. Take Xu Su, for example. Since her rebirth, she has never shaped her eyebrows or worn makeup. Right now, she hasn't even washed her face, yet her skin is still as white as jade, her lips are rosy, and her eyebrows and eyes are as exquisite as a painting.

Despite being born into such an ordinary family, growing up without parental love and relying on others, she showed no signs of inferiority or timidity, and always treated everyone with grace and poise.

It wasn't feigned composure; Xu Su possessed a confidence born from being pampered and spoiled, as if nothing, no matter how big, would bother her.

Her eyes held an innocent, fearless naiveté, occasionally revealing a hint of weariness—"the weariness that comes after all desires have been fulfilled."

Her whole demeanor exuded an indescribable arrogance, radiating an aura of someone who had been pampered since birth and had never been bullied.

It was rare for her to wear anything other than her school uniform, and she had never worn a skirt in the two years she had been in school. After she came out in this outfit, the people in the living room remained silent for a long time.

Xu Su herself didn't notice anything amiss and went straight to the backyard to wash up.

There was some noise in the living room only after she left.

Qian Jia rubbed her face and found her voice, "Holy crap, Su Su is getting prettier and prettier."

She could hardly believe that her best friend, whom she spent every day with, could look so stunning after changing out of her school uniform.

"I always thought that the ancient poem's 'One glance could topple a city, a second glance could topple a nation' was just an exaggerated embellishment by the ancients who had never seen the world, but I actually had that feeling just now." Huang Feng, as Mr. Chen's favorite student in the liberal arts class, only remembered this line of poetry at this moment.

"No wonder so many boys in my class like her, but they don't even dare to get close to her. She's too beautiful, so beautiful that she seems a bit distant."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ni immediately perked up, "Do a lot of boys like my sister?"

“There are so many, as far as I know, every single one of them sees her as their white moonlight.” Huang Feng muttered softly, “But your sister is too aloof. We were in the same class for two years, and she might not even know all the names of her classmates.”

She couldn't help but sigh, "This is probably the kind of face that could make all the beauties in the palace pale in comparison..."

Xu Su was far more famous at No. 1 High School than she knew. She was too cold-hearted and focused on studying every day. Apart from a few female friends, she rarely gave anyone a smile.

After getting together with Xi Zirong, her insecure and anxious demeanor made her even more careful to keep her distance from all her male classmates.

At No. 1 High School, although Xi Zirong's excellence was already at the top of the pyramid, making people look up to her, every grade had its share of prominent figures, but Xu Su didn't care about others at all.

Aside from occasionally listening to the gossip that Qian Jia and Huang Feng were talking about, I never paid attention to what was going on in other classes.

As for his own class... Huang Feng was right, Xu Su might not be able to call out all his classmates' names.

Chen Ni's eyes lit up. "Does my sister have a boyfriend? Are there any handsome guys at your school who would make her look at her differently?"

Xu Ran coughed lightly, glanced at her silent roommate beside her, adjusted her glasses, and dared not interrupt. She then looked down at Chen Jun's summer homework.

Huang Feng choked for a moment, then shook her head with a dry laugh, "...I don't know either, you'll have to ask your sister."

Chen Dong tapped Chen Ni on the head, "Chen Xiaoni, do you think Sister Su is like you, always thinking about these kinds of things? Have you forgotten the guarantee you wrote?"

Xu Su heard this sentence when she returned after washing up.

Guarantee...

She frowned, her gaze almost sharp as she looked at Chen Ni. "Nini, what did you do?"

In her past life, Chen Ni dropped out of high school in her senior year and did not take the college entrance examination. She got pregnant and gave birth early. Now she is only in her first year of high school. Has that little blond guy appeared so early?

Xu Su walked over in a few steps, grabbed Chen Ni's arm, and angrily confronted her.

"Have you forgotten what I wrote in the guarantee letter? You really went and started dating at school? Chen Xiaoni! If you dare bring some blond-haired punk back home, I'll break his legs!"

Xu Su is usually good-tempered in front of her friends, so her sudden outburst of anger startled everyone.

Chen Ni, the person involved, was completely stunned by the yelling.

"I didn't have a boyfriend, you're accusing me again!" Chen Ni felt wronged after being yelled at in front of so many outsiders. She forcefully shook off Xu Su's hand that was holding her arm and shouted back, "You keep calling me 'little blondie,' you know the school doesn't allow dyeing hair. Even if I had a boyfriend, I can't be called a 'little blondie,' can I?"

"..." Xu Su paused, somewhat hesitantly, "Really not?"

Chen Ni angrily turned her head away and ignored her.

Xu Su then looked at Chen Dong, "Then what guarantee did you just mention?"

Chen Dong hadn't expected that his casual remark would make Xu Su so nervous, leaving her stammering for a long time, unable to speak.

Huang Feng timidly raised her hand again, "I can testify that your sister did not say 'little blondie,' Su Su, you're so fierce."

Huang Feng was somewhat surprised that Xu Su was so strict with her younger sister, since she herself was in a relationship.

Isn't this a case of "the magistrate is allowed to set fires, but the common people are forbidden to light lamps"?

Huang Feng muttered to herself, while Xu Su felt somewhat embarrassed.

...Is she wronging Nini?

The main reason is that Xu Su was so agitated, given the bloody history of her younger sister's past life and the fact that the time and place were roughly the same.

“I can testify to that too.” Qian Jia glanced at Xu Su and smiled knowingly. “Your sister is just concerned about whether you’re having a ‘puppy love’ at school.”

"..." Xu Su's eyes widened, and she reflexively looked at Xi Zirong. When she met the boy's gaze, she stammered for a long time, not knowing what to say.

After a long pause, she decided not to explain anymore!

Never mind...

As long as Nini can stay away from that blond-haired guy in this life, it doesn't matter if her friends see her as an older sister who can date herself but keeps her younger sister under her thumb.

Xu Su put his arm around Chen Ni's shoulder and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, Ni Ni, I wronged you."

"I just don't understand why you always think I'd date a blond guy." Chen Ni was quite angry. "Even if I did like someone, I'd prefer a good student who excels in both character and academics."

Xu Su couldn't answer the question. She pinched her younger sister's cheek and said seriously, "Even someone who is excellent in both character and academics won't do. Nobody will do."

High school romances can easily affect grades. She and Xi Zirong did it because it wouldn't affect either of their grades. But Nini wasn't determined enough, and once she was in a relationship, she couldn't balance both.

Chen Ni felt wronged and muttered, "Fine, fine, I never intended to. I'm not good-looking, who would want me!"

"Don't say that, our Nini is beautiful." Xu Su coaxed her younger sister with a smile, "How could my sister not be beautiful?"

Ruffled Chen Ni's hair and casually made a promise to her, "I promise you, as long as you get into university, I will never interfere with you again. I won't mind if you change boyfriends every month."

Xu Su knew that as long as Chen Ni got into university, she would be free from the fate of being deceived by the young man in her previous life. Once she got to university, she could date as many girls as she wanted. Xu Su didn't intend to keep a close eye on her younger sister.

She knew, but the others didn't. When they heard her say that, their jaws dropped in astonishment.
