Rebirth of a Girl in a Boys' School

"Teacher, these documents are so heavy, let me carry them for you!" Lin Ruofei immediately snatched the large stack of new student registration forms from the middle-aged female teacher without further ado.

"Oh, no need! No need! I can manage on my own... Look at you, student... You're so considerate of your teacher!" After the middle-aged female teacher symbolically declined twice, she let Lin Ruofei carry the materials by herself.

"Excuse me, student, what grade are you in?" The middle-aged female teacher took out a handkerchief from her small crossbody bag and wiped the fine sweat from her forehead as she asked kindly, "Where are you going if you walk this way?"

"Teacher, I am a first-year student..." Lin Ruofei replied respectfully, "My homeroom teacher told me to come to 'Psychological Counseling Room 5' at 4 pm today to see Teacher Xia for psychological counseling."

"Oh, so you're a first-year student here for counseling..." The middle-aged female teacher couldn't help but look Lin Ruofei up and down, secretly wondering whether the child was here for counseling because she was 'too big' or 'too small'. Only after she concluded that Lin Ruofei was definitely called here because she was 'too small' did she smile and say, "That's such a coincidence. We're going the same way. Just follow me, and I'll take you to find Teacher Xia."

"Thank you, teacher!" Lin Ruofei said hurriedly.

Lin Ruofei followed the middle-aged female teacher to the north-facing entrance of the two-story building.

As soon as the two entered the small building, the middle-aged female teacher pointed to the corridor on her right and said to Lin Ruofei, "The psychological counseling rooms are all on the first floor, student, look this way..."

Lin Ruofei looked in the direction the middle-aged female teacher pointed and saw that along the right-hand side of the first floor, there were signs hanging one by one on the door lintels of the rooms, from "Psychological Counseling Room 1" to "Psychological Counseling Room 5".

“‘Psychological Counseling Room 5’ is the innermost room. Knock on the door first and see if Teacher Xia has come yet…” After saying this, the middle-aged female teacher reached out to take the documents that Lin Ruofei was holding.

Lin Ruofei quickly took a small step back, dodging the middle-aged female teacher's outstretched hand, and said with a smile, "Teacher, let me take the materials to your office for you first! The counseling appointment is at four o'clock, and it's still early. I guess Teacher Xia shouldn't be here yet!"

"Then... I'll have to trouble you!" the middle-aged female teacher said happily. "The archives are on the second floor. Please follow me upstairs!"

"Okay!" Lin Ruofei nodded, then followed the middle-aged female teacher up the stairs to the second floor...

The lintels of all the rooms on the second floor were covered with nameplates for the archives. Lin Ruofei looked at them carefully and saw that the numbers started from Archives 10 and ended with Archives 23, but there were no rooms with the first nine numbers.

After the middle-aged female teacher led Lin Ruofei to the door of document room 15, she took out a bunch of keys from her small crossbody bag, found one with the number 15 written on it in black pen, and opened the door to document room 15.

"Just put the materials on the table!" The middle-aged female teacher instructed Lin Ruofei to place the materials on the computer desk by the door, while turning on a computer on the desk and muttering to herself, "I need to quickly input all the new students' information into the computer!"

"Wow... is all the school's student information here?" Lin Ruofei looked at the rows of three-story iron shelves that filled the small room of less than ten square meters, and the stacks of student registration forms piled up like small mountains on the shelves, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Teacher, did you enter all this information by yourself? You're working so hard!"

"This room only contains the information for this year's junior high and first-year high school students. Sigh! We were supposed to be three teachers working together to input the new students' information into the computer..." The middle-aged female teacher sighed, "But this year, one of them had her daughter-in-law give birth to her grandson, and the other had her daughter give birth to her grandson. They both took leave to help with their postpartum care, so I had to input the information into the computer by myself. My eyesight isn't very good, and I'm not very good with computers either. The school keeps urging me to do it..."

"If the teacher needs my help, please just say so..." Lin Ruofei said with a smile, "I know a little bit about basic computer operations."

"This is already too much trouble for you. You should go downstairs and do your counseling!" The middle-aged female teacher hurriedly waved her hand and whispered, "Besides, the new students' information is personal information and needs to be kept confidential. I can't let you help me!"

"Teacher, I'll be going now." Seeing that the middle-aged female teacher wouldn't let her stay, Lin Ruofei had no choice but to leave first.

As Lin Ruofei slowly walked towards the stairwell, she glanced at the windowless archive rooms and couldn't help but exclaim with smug satisfaction, "This is truly a case of finding something without even looking for it! I had been trying so hard to find out where the student files were stored, but it wasn't convenient to ask anyone. And then, by accident, I discovered it myself! Alas, it's just a pity..."

Lin Ruofei discovered that the building was covered with cameras everywhere, from upstairs to downstairs, truly covering every angle without any blind spots!

"It's just a small, run-down second floor for storing student files. Does it really need to be so heavily guarded? It seems like it'll be quite a challenge to sneak in and find that little bastard's information!" Lin Ruofei thought to herself as she slowly walked towards 'Psychological Counseling Room 5'.

Before Lin Ruofei could even raise her hand to knock, the door to 'Psychological Counseling Room 5' opened from the inside.

The person who opened the door was also a middle-aged female teacher. However, unlike the middle-aged female teacher who managed the new student information that Lin Ruofei had encountered before, this middle-aged female teacher was not wearing her own casual clothes, but was wearing a white coat like those worn by hospital doctors.

"Oh dear!" The middle-aged female teacher in the white coat exclaimed in surprise when she saw Lin Ruofei standing at the door, "When did someone start standing at the door?"

"Hello, teacher!" Lin Ruofei said hurriedly and apologetically, "I am Lin Ruofei from Class 2, Grade 1. Our homeroom teacher, Ms. Hao, told me to come to see Ms. Xia for psychological counseling at four o'clock. You must be Ms. Xia? I was just about to knock on the door when you opened it. I hope I didn't scare you?"

"You made an appointment at four o'clock? You're a bit early!" Teacher Xia said with a smile. "But it's okay, the earlier we come, the earlier we start. Come inside and wait for me for a bit, I'll go to the restroom first..."

“Okay, Teacher Xia.” Lin Ruofei quickly nodded in agreement, “You go ahead, no need to rush…”

"The restroom is on the first floor, it won't take long. You can go inside and wait for me!" After saying that, Teacher Xia left.

Lin Ruofei did not go into the house alone, but stood in the corridor and watched as Teacher Xia, who was in a hurry to use the restroom, quickly walked into the restroom located at the end of the opposite corridor. Then, she smiled and greeted Teacher Xia, who came out of the restroom looking 'lighter'.

"Why didn't you go inside?" Teacher Xia asked Lin Ruofei while shaking the water droplets off her hands.

"I wanted to wait for you to come in together..." Lin Ruofei replied with a smile, "It's nerve-wracking to be alone in the house!"

"Oh, what's there to be nervous about?" Teacher Xia walked into the room first, picked up a white towel hanging behind the door, wiped her hands and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, we're just having a chat."

"Hehe, what we're going to talk about is my 'little brother' that I don't even have. How can I not be nervous?" Lin Ruofei thought to herself with a wry smile.

The consultation room was simply furnished with a desk and two wooden chairs facing each other.

"Sit down!" Teacher Xia pointed to the chair with its back to the door and said to Lin Ruofei, "You can sit here."

"Oh!" Lin Ruofei immediately hugged her schoolbag tightly and obediently sat down.

After drying her hands, Ms. Xia hung the white towel back on the door and then gently closed the door.

"Let me see, the appointment is at four o'clock..." Teacher Xia walked inside and sat down in her seat. She picked up a pair of glasses from the table, put them on, and began to look through a gray folder on the table.

"Lin Ruofei from Class 2, Grade 1, right?" Teacher Xia looked up and asked.

“Yes, Teacher Xia.” Lin Ruofei nodded hurriedly.

"Hmm...hmm...what we're going to talk about today is...hmm..." Teacher Xia looked down at the materials in her hand, then looked up at Lin Ruofei sitting opposite her, clutching her schoolbag tightly. After repeating this several times, Teacher Xia finally couldn't help but take off her glasses and mutter softly, "How come it was filled out 'too fast'?"

"Could it be that I filled in...big...?" Lin Ruofei tried to recall which option she had drawn on in the chaotic scene of the physical examination. However, after recalling for a long time, Lin Ruofei could only confirm that she had marked the option on the top of the experience form on the table. As for what she had selected, Lin Ruofei really couldn't see clearly.

"Tsk tsk... Hmm... This shouldn't be the case..." Teacher Xia crossed her arms, looking Lin Ruofei up and down, and continued to mutter to herself, "With these body proportions... it doesn't make sense..."

Sitting in the chair, Lin Ruofei nervously lowered her head, not daring to meet the questioning gaze from Teacher Xia opposite her. She kept mentally calculating her options: "What should I do? How can I dispel Teacher Xia's suspicions and get her to provide psychological counseling? Should I say something? I wonder if saying that I ate too much chicken injected with 'hormones' and that's why my little brother got so big..."

Ms. Xia scrutinized Lin Ruofei for a long time before finally asking, "Lin, did the examiner have a problem with her eyesight or judgment during your physical exam? You understand what I mean?"

“Teacher Xia,” Lin Ruofei suddenly stood up, turned around and threw her schoolbag onto the chair, then said to Teacher Xia sitting opposite her with a serious expression, “Since you have doubts about my physical examination results, then I will take off my pants now and let you verify it on the spot!” After saying that, Lin Ruofei stretched out her hands and pretended to unzip her pants.

Lin Ruofei's tactic is called "putting yourself in a desperate situation to survive," meaning "I'll first push myself to the very edge, and then wait for a way out." Since Teacher Xia doubts her medical exam results, the only option is to take off your clothes and show them to her. Whether she actually takes them off or just pretends depends on Teacher Xia's reaction...

"Hey! What are you doing?" Teacher Xia, who was sitting opposite Lin Ruofei, saw Lin Ruofei suddenly stand up and try to take off her pants. She quickly covered her eyes with one hand and waved her other hand frantically, saying loudly, "Who told you to take off your pants when you're alone with a man? Sit down quickly, we're about to start psychological counseling!"

"Oh..." Lin Ruofei suppressed a laugh, sat back down in her chair with a smug look on her face, and secretly praised herself for her cleverness and resourcefulness!

"Lin, don't be nervous. Let's start chatting now..." Teacher Xia's terrified expression, which had been flashing when Lin Ruofei tried to pull down her pants, vanished, replaced by a professional smile. She spoke softly and gently to Lin Ruofei:

"Our bodies and hair are a gift from our parents. Whether we are tall or short, fat or thin, handsome or not... we should accept it gladly, because it is what our parents gave us. Although we have no choice, we should still thank our parents for giving us this precious life. Despite some imperfections, we are still unique, don't you think? Lin..."

"Yes!" Lin Ruofei nodded heavily.

"Like our eyes, mouth, and ears, everyone looks different. Eyes may be big or small, lips may be thin or thick, and ears may be long or short. Regardless of whether they are beautiful or not, they are all indispensable parts of our bodies. Since they are part of our bodies, we should love them unconditionally, no matter what they look like, don't you think? Lin..."

"Mmm..." Lin Ruofei nodded hurriedly.

"Just like our physical development and growth from childhood to adulthood, each stage is different..."

Although Lin Ruofei's eyes were fixed on the incessantly talking Teacher Xia, her mind had already wandered far away. So, Lin Ruofei didn't remember a single word Teacher Xia had said from beginning to end. She only nodded and said "uh-huh" when Teacher Xia smiled and asked her a question.

After an unknown amount of time, Ms. Xia suddenly stopped, handed Lin Ruofei a form and a pen, and said with a smile, "Our pleasant chat today has come to an end. Please give me your honest evaluation of my tutoring work today."

Lin Ruofei took the form and glanced at it. It mainly consisted of questions about her satisfaction with Teacher Xia's guidance. After Lin Ruofei selected "very satisfied" for all the questions and returned the form to Teacher Xia, Teacher Xia happily announced: "This psychological counseling session regarding Lin Ruofei's medical examination results has successfully concluded!"
