Before her rebirth, Shen Xuewei was over thirty years old. After seven years of estrangement from her family and many years of hard work, she finally had her own small home.
After her rebirth...
Chapter 261 No, absolutely not
Shen Xuewei didn't want to give in, but if she didn't change her mind, the other party would ignore her.
She often had math problems to ask for help with, so she eventually changed her mind.
Ren Qinan pointed out the scope for her, and Shen Xuewei knew she was doomed when she saw that she couldn't do most of it.
She looked at Ren Qinan.
Ren Qinan glanced at her, raised his chin, and said arrogantly, "Beg me."
Shen Xuewei immediately slid down to her knees, pleading, "Please."
Ren Qinan didn't expect Shen Xuewei to be so quick to ask, and rolled her eyes at her:
"Fine, fine, I'll grant your request. I told you to beg, so beg. Don't you have any backbone?"
Shen Xuewei laughed, "Honesty is nothing."
Will her integrity improve her math skills? Will her integrity make her richer?
No, neither.
Having missed two math classes, Shen Xuewei could only study with Ren Qinan during breaks between classes.
She did think of finding a math teacher, but many students go to find math teachers after class, and she might not be able to get a turn. She might as well learn from Ren Qinan instead.
On Saturday afternoon, after class, Xu Yue rushed to Shen Xuewei's classroom to wait for her.
As expected, the last class for the experimental class was extended beyond the allotted time by the teacher.
Shen Xuewei listened to the lesson while glancing apologetically outside.
Fortunately, Ms. Miao didn't delay for too long this time. About five or six minutes after the school bell rang, she announced the end of get out of class.
As the students left the classroom one after another, Xu Yue peeked out the window and cheerfully greeted Shen Xuewei.
"Weiwei!"
Shen Xuewei pointed to the test paper on the table and said, "Wait for me a moment, I'll pack my things and be done in a minute."
"good!"
Teacher Miao, who was walking down from the podium with a book in her hand, frowned as she looked at Xu Yue, who clearly did not belong to the experimental class.
She glanced at Shen Xuewei again, said nothing, and took the book back to the teacher's office.
Xu Yue was frightened by the look Teacher Miao had given her earlier and instinctively turned away.
After packing her things, Shen Xuewei asked Ren Qinan if there was anything she needed to bring.
Ren Qinan thought for a moment, "If it's convenient for you, could you buy me a pair of slippers? Mine are almost broken in two."
What size do you need? Do you need anything else besides this?
Ren Qinan shook his head, "Just this one, nothing else. I wear size 37."
Shen Xuewei gave her an OK sign, braced herself on her own desk and the desk of the student behind her, and jumped off.
"Okay, I'll go now and bring it to you later."
Ren Qinan was looking down, taking money out of his pocket, when he turned around and saw Shen Xuewei and Xu Yue walking away hand in hand.
She called out to Shen Xuewei's retreating figure, "Weiwei, I haven't given you the money yet."
Shen Xuewei didn't stop walking; only her voice drifted over.
"I'll buy it and you can give it to me then, no rush."
Ren Qinan watched as the two figures, one tall and one short, disappeared around the corner before turning his gaze away.
When she arrived at the school's bicycle parking area, Xu Yue found her bicycle, unlocked it, and pushed it out.
She called out to Shen Xuewei, and the two were about to walk out of the school when several other boys came over.
Upon seeing Xu Yue, his eyes lit up.
"Xu Yue, Xu Yue, where are you going? We'll go with you."
Xu Yue was chatting and laughing with Shen Xuewei, but when they were interrupted, the smile on her face faded.
She politely declined, saying, "No need, I have friends with me, you guys go have fun."
Liang Hua, who was in the lead, persisted, "So where are you going? Xu Yue, how long has it been since you've spoken to me? Weren't we doing fine before?"
Why bring up the past?
If it weren't for Lin Yuru, she wouldn't have bothered with Liang Hua in the past.
She held onto the bicycle, urging Shen Xuewei to get on, ignoring Liang Hua and the others.
The more you engage with these people, the more excited they become.
If you don't talk to them, they'll eventually get bored and lose face, and they'll gradually stop coming to see you.
After settling into her seat, Shen Xuewei gave a slight push, and the bicycle headed out of the school.
The weather at the end of April is cool and comfortable in the mornings and evenings, just right for wearing a light jacket.
Trees and grass lined both sides of the road, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and earth. A gentle breeze caressed their hair and faces, and the two of them squinted slightly at the same time.
"Weiwei, let's go take some photo booth pictures later. Lots of people go there. After that, we'll go to the night market. They sell clothes and all kinds of snacks there."
"But I'm not good at taking pictures... Oh well, I've never taken pictures like this before, let's go take a look."
"Oh, right, can you make a note of this for me? Remind me to buy slippers later. If I forget, I'm going to get a beating from Sister Ren."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely remind you."
...
The bicycle stopped at a toy store on the pedestrian street in the county. After locking the bicycle, Xu Yue excitedly pulled Shen Xuewei to line up outside the photo booth.
It's the time when high schools are on holiday, and students can be seen everywhere on the pedestrian street.
Besides Shen Xuewei and her companion, there were several other girls queuing up in front of the photo booth.
Xu Yue counted the number of people.
"Weiwei, the ones before us seem to be together. After they finish filming, it'll be our turn. Quickly think about what kind of action to do next."
Shen Xuewei held up two fingers. "Isn't this enough?"
When she takes photos, she always makes one gesture: sticking out two fingers to make a peace sign.
This action will remain unchanged for the next ten years.
Xu Yue pressed her two fingers back down. "It's so cliché, there's no originality at all. Let's try something different."
That's what they said, but when it was their turn to stand in front of the selfie booth, Shen Xuewei gave a stiff smile and made a peace sign, while Xu Yue subconsciously made one as well.
She took one picture, then several more, but looking at the same pose, Xu Yue was somewhat dissatisfied.
She looked down at Shen Xuewei, "Weiwei."
"Um?"
Shen Xuewei looked up at her in confusion.
Xu Yue pressed her raised head back down, tapped her cheek with one finger, and made the classic peace sign with her other hand.
With a click of the shutter, the image was captured.
After taking the photos, the two waited a few minutes and quickly received the photos.
Xu Yue wanted an electronic version, so she left her QQ number with the boss and asked him to send her the electronic version later.
Shen Xuewei craned her neck to take a look, "When you receive it, send me a copy as well."
"Okay, no problem."
After cropping the photo, Xu Yue gave one copy to Shen Xuewei, and the two continued strolling along the pedestrian street.
At first, they held hands, but later Shen Xuewei shook off Xu Yue's hand and walked silently ahead.
Xu Yue caught up from behind, "Hey, Weiwei, other people's best friends walk hand in hand when they go shopping, why don't you like to hold hands with me?"
Shen Xuewei stopped, turned around and glared at her.
"How dare you say that? Don't you know why I don't hold your hand?"
She snapped, "Can you please stop taking the opportunity to tickle my armpits?"
