Rebirth of a Girl in a Boys' School

"Lin Ruofei, listen to me..." Gao Qiang interrupted Zhang Yang, saying firmly, "Let Gao Chao prepare for the next match on his own. I'll take you to the school clinic right away!"

"No!" Lin Ruofei suddenly stood up and said seriously, "I must participate in the next competition!"

"I'm the captain, listen to me!" Gao Qiang commanded sternly, "Your task now is to get to the infirmary to treat your wounds!"

"I already said, this little injury is nothing!" No sooner had Lin Ruofei finished speaking than the 'megaphone' at the starting line shouted loudly:

"All participants in the 5000-meter race, please proceed to the check-in area immediately! All participants in the 5000-meter race, please proceed to the check-in area immediately!"

"It's time to check in," Lin Ruofei said firmly, "Don't try to persuade me!"

Just as everyone was pulling at Lin Ruofei, trying to stop her from playing again, Zhang Yang suddenly asked loudly:

"I really don't understand, is it really worth it for such a small bonus or to stay in my dorm for a few more days?"

"I've already said, the competition has nothing to do with money..." Lin Ruofei stared at Zhang Yang's face, which was slightly flushed with anger, and said seriously, "It also has nothing to do with living in your dorm room..."

"Your knee is injured like this," Zhang Yang asked, puzzled. "Why are you still so determined to play?"

"Because we can't let the bad guys get away with it!" Lin Ruofei replied earnestly. "If bad guys could benefit from doing bad things, they would continue to do bad things with impunity, and wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"You're not a policeman, why would you need to set things right and uphold justice?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but retort sarcastically.

"No matter who it is..." Lin Ruofei glanced at Zhang Yang and continued, word by word, "We must not tolerate bad people doing bad things!"

After hearing Lin Ruofei's righteous words, everyone felt embarrassed to speak up and stop her.

Lin Ruofei then walked towards the starting point with an air of righteous indignation...

"I said..." Just as Zhang Yang was about to say something more, a bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, followed by a series of deafening claps of thunder.

In an instant, large raindrops began to fall with a pattering sound.

"It's raining!" Lin Ruofei, who was almost at the starting line check-in area, covered her head with her hands and shouted excitedly, "Hurry up and bring in your clothes! Oh, no... we don't have to compete!"

"This kid's really gone mad from that fall!" Yu Jialiang couldn't help but shout sarcastically, "He's started talking nonsense!"

As Lin Ruofei had predicted, the sudden downpour forced the cancellation of the upcoming match, with the rescheduled date to be announced later.

When Lin Ruofei pulled Ding Yilin back to the dormitory building, both of them were soaked to the bone.

“Zhang Yang definitely won’t let you shower in his bathroom,” Ding Yilin suggested, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the rain off Lin Ruofei’s face. “Why don’t we just go to the public bathroom together?”

"Hmm..." Lin Ruofei shook her head, pointed to her injured knee and said, "I have an injury here, so I'd better not wash it for now to avoid infection."

"How am I supposed to shower in a public bathhouse with you?" Lin Ruofei thought to herself, "Wouldn't our identities be completely exposed!"

"It's better to be careful," Ding Yilin nodded and said, "After you get back, take a quick shower and get some rest!"

"Mmm," Lin Ruofei replied softly.

When Lin Ruofei returned to her dormitory, Zhang Yang had already arrived before her and changed into clean clothes.

"Wow..." Lin Ruofei looked at Zhang Yang, who was dressed neatly, and couldn't help but exclaim, "You're really fast! Did you come back by rocket?"

"Look at how filthy you are..." Zhang Yang frowned, his face full of disgust, and said, "You look so disgusting, it's almost nauseating. Go to the bathroom and wash up right now, don't let me see you looking like this again!"

"Um... there are too many people in the public bathroom," Lin Ruofei stammered in a low voice, "I'm a little tired and don't want to squeeze in with other people."

"I meant for you to go wash up in the bathroom in this dorm room!" Zhang Yang said with a disdainful expression. "Look at you, you're soaked in rainwater and sweat, you could practically rub mud off your clothes. Go wash up now!"

"You really want me to use your bathroom?" Lin Ruofei was overjoyed and could hardly believe her ears.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I won't let you use it anymore..." Zhang Yang said, pretending to be angry.

"I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore!" Lin Ruofei happily found her toiletries and change of clothes and ran cheerfully into the bathroom.

Seeing Lin Ruofei rush into the bathroom, Zhang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew..." Zhang Yang shook his head and couldn't help but mutter softly, "I didn't even have time to wash my hair before coming out so that this girl could take a shower as soon as possible..."

Lin Ruofei didn't know how long she had been washing, she only knew that she was scrubbing the dead skin on her body again and again until she was in so much pain that she couldn't scrub anymore.

When Lin Ruofei came out of the bathroom dressed, Zhang Yang was sitting quietly on the sofa in front of the French windows, listening to his Walkman.

"I have some wound medicine in my drawer..." Zhang Yang said casually as Lin Ruofei came out of the bathroom, "Take care of your wound yourself!"

"Forget it!" Lin Ruofei waved her hand and said, "This little injury is nothing, let's avoid trouble!"

After saying that, Lin Ruofei walked straight to her bedside and collapsed onto it.

"Oh my god! I'm so tired..." Lin Ruofei muttered as she comfortably shrugged into a large "人" shape.

"If the wound gets infected, you'll be in even more trouble!" Zhang Yang took off his headphones, got up and walked to his wardrobe, found some ointment for external injuries in the drawer, then walked to Lin Ruofei's bedside and loudly scolded, "Quickly stretch out your injured leg!"

Lin Ruofei immediately obeyed and turned her body around, bringing her injured knee closer to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang sat down on the edge of the bed and carefully began to apply ointment to Lin Ruofei's knee wound...

"Ouch! Be gentle..." Lin Ruofei cried out in pain, "Please, can you be a little gentler?"

"Okay, okay!" Zhang Yang said angrily while gently applying the ointment, "What are you yelling about now? Where did your fierce spirit go? You're injured like this, and you still want to keep running!"

"Ouch..." Lin Ruofei cried out and sat up, snatching the ointment from Zhang Yang's hand. She said angrily, "Are you looking for a chance to get revenge? Applying some medicine makes it feel like you're cutting flesh with a knife. I'm speechless!"

"I've already been very gentle!" Zhang Yang shouted angrily, "You're just being too delicate, aren't you?"

"Me, delicate?" Lin Ruofei immediately sneered twice and said, "Hmph! If I'm considered delicate, then there are no tough guys in this world!"

"Give me a break!" Zhang Yang snatched the ointment back, feigning impatience, and said, "Alright, alright! I'll apply it carefully!"

"You have to blow on the wound when you apply it..." Lin Ruofei said, blowing heavily on her scraped knee...

"Hoo...hoo...did you see that?" Lin Ruofei looked up at Zhang Yang and asked, "Do you understand now?"

"Got it! There's so much to do..." Zhang Yang then applied the ointment while gently blowing on the wound with his mouth...

"You have to blow it out really hard, whoosh...whoosh..." Lin Ruofei scolded Zhang Yang while demonstrating to him how to blow it out hard.

In that instant, their faces were very close, so close that Zhang Yang could smell the minty toothpaste flavor coming from Lin Ruofei's mouth as he breathed.

Zhang Yang's heart suddenly skipped a beat for no apparent reason, and his face involuntarily flushed slightly...

Startled, Zhang Yang immediately stood up, casually tossed the ointment in front of Lin Ruofei, and said sternly, "Why make such a fuss? Apply it yourself!"

After saying that, Zhang Yang didn't dare to look at Lin Ruofei again, afraid that she would notice that he was blushing. He hurriedly walked to the sofa in front of the French windows, sat down, put on his headphones, and continued to listen to his Walkman.

"Hmph! I knew 'a rabbit's tail won't last long'..." Lin Ruofei pouted and muttered angrily, "Bad people can't pretend to be good people for long!"

"Ouch, it hurts so much! Is this fake medicine?" Lin Ruofei suddenly felt a sharp pain in her wound and shouted at Zhang Yang a few times. Seeing that Zhang Yang ignored her and was just listening to his Walkman, she had no choice but to lie down and say, "Let's rest for a while before applying the medicine!"

Before she knew it, Lin Ruofei drifted off to sleep...

In Lin Ruofei's dream, her father Lin Fushou, mother He Meizhen, and her brother Lin Ruoxuan, who owed her money, appeared again. In the dream, her father and mother actually joined forces to help Lin Ruofei collect the debt from her brother, which made Lin Ruofei so happy that she couldn't stop smiling!

In a daze, Lin Ruofei suddenly saw a blood-covered man staggering towards her. Lin Ruofei tried hard to see the man's face clearly, but the more she tried, the blurrier her vision became. The blood flowing from this mysterious man instantly covered the ground, filling Lin Ruofei's vision with a terrifying red...

Lin Ruofei was awakened by the terrifying dream. She immediately sat up straight and began to take deep breaths.

"A man covered in blood... This is so ominous. Who could it be?" Lin Ruofei wondered to herself as she tried to calm her frightened heart. "Could it be because Dad is about to be framed that I'm having this dream? But this man doesn't look like Dad at all!"

After letting out a long sigh, Lin Ruofei casually picked up her phone from beside her pillow and glanced at it: 7:45.

"Oh my god!" Lin Ruofei exclaimed, then jumped out of bed, grabbed her schoolbag from the chair, and ran out...

For Lin Ruofei, the most important thing right now is not figuring out who the unlucky man in her dream is, but getting to the classroom as quickly as possible to clock in for class. That is the most urgent thing right now!

All morning, the school was abuzz with the news that the "divine calculator" Saman was going to carry a piano from the music building at noon. Everyone was talking about it and speculating about what would happen.

Of course, "King of Gambling" Fung Wing-sing would not miss this great opportunity to start the betting season, and early in the morning he offered a high odds of 1 to 10 for the "Divine Calculator" Scattering.

Despite such high odds, the majority of students still bet on 'Bad Kid' He Zhiheng at 1 to 2 odds, because everyone believes that it is simply impossible for anyone to safely carry a piano out of the music building!

Because Lin Ruofei didn't have much spare money, she had no intention of participating in the gambling. During breaks between classes, Lin Ruofei would get together with the Gao brothers, Gao Qiang and Gao Chao, to secretly discuss tactics for the afternoon's competition.

Because many students wanted to witness firsthand the incredible feat of the "divine calculator" Saman storming the music building, the entire teaching building immediately became empty as soon as the last class of the morning ended, with everyone rushing to the music building to grab a good spot to watch.

Bored, Lin Ruofei stood at the empty entrance of the teaching building, picking at the plaster on the wall while waiting for Ding Yilin, who was going to the restroom, to go to the cafeteria together. But even after Lin Ruofei had peeled off a large chunk of plaster, Ding Yilin still hadn't appeared.

Just as Lin Ruofei was about to turn around and go to the toilet to call Ding Yilin, she suddenly saw the 'bad kid' He Zhiheng swaggering out of the teaching building with a bunch of followers.

Lin Ruofei intended to walk quietly past He Zhiheng with her head down, but unexpectedly, He Zhiheng and his group blocked her way.

"Hey! Kid..." He Zhiheng, the 'bad kid,' walked up to Lin Ruofei and said sarcastically, "Not bad, you run pretty fast!"

Because Lin Ruofei didn't want to provoke a troublesome person like He Zhiheng for the time being, and was worried about causing herself unnecessary trouble, Lin Ruofei kept her head down and didn't say a word.

"I've taken a liking to you! Come join my group!" He Zhiheng said with utter arrogance.

“But I’ve already joined the high-intensity group…” Lin Ruofei answered softly with her head down.

"It's okay!" He Zhiheng said arrogantly, "The school stipulates that each group can freely enter and leave during the competition, without time or number restrictions. As long as we report to the school in time, you can be my group member immediately!"

“But I…” Lin Ruofei slowly raised her head and said, word by word, “I still don’t want to join your group!”

Upon hearing this, He Zhiheng's face immediately darkened, and he asked sternly, "What do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean much," Lin Ruofei said calmly, "It just means I don't want to be in the same group as you!"

"Kid, don't push your luck!" He Zhiheng pointed his finger at Lin Ruofei's nose and shouted angrily, "I'm doing you a favor by letting you into my group. Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Be careful I make sure you can't even stay at Yucai anymore!"
