Ping'an County No.1 High School.

The men's dormitory was overcrowded, with people carrying large and small bags everywhere.

Wang Peng found dormitory 100 on the first floor, with a list of occupants and beds posted on the door.

His roommates were all there, except for him.

"Wang Peng, you're finally here." A guy with a buzz cut came over to chat.

"Yes, he's here." Wang Peng felt he looked familiar, but couldn't remember who he was.

"It's only been one summer vacation, and you don't recognize me, Zhang Chuan?" the boy said with a smile.

"Zhang Chuan, don't joke around." Only then did Wang Peng realize that this was his classmate from the third year of junior high school.

He was the second-highest scorer in Wangcun Junior High School, a lively and cheerful boy whose grades ranked tenth in the entire county.

“Our dormitory is full of hidden talents,” Zhang Chuan said. “All of the top ten students in the county are from our dormitory; they are all exceptional individuals.”

Upon hearing this, the parents in the dormitory all laughed.

Wang Peng smiled slightly. There were eight people in the dormitory, and it turned out that only two of the top ten were girls.

“Zhang Chuan is right, we can all get into Tsinghua and Peking University in the future.” He was playing the straight man for Zhang Chuan.

The parents were even happier. Whose child is this? He's so articulate.

Wang Peng tidied his bed, chatted with his roommates and parents for a few minutes, and went outside to wait for Du Lei.

The Du family father and son were waiting for him outside the dormitory building.

"Dad, you and Grandpa go back first. School officially starts tomorrow, and I'll be staying at school tonight," Du Lei said.

Du Ming nodded, "You must help each other. If anyone dares to bully you, you must tell me, and I'll kill him."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Ming." Wang Peng liked this feeling of being cared for.

"Dad, no one dares to bully us." Du Lei patted his chest. "Whoever insults me, I'll insult them back; whoever hits me, I'll hit them back."

"Oh, right, don't let anyone bully you." Du Ming sneered. "I'm leaving first. Don't forget to study hard."

Many parents and students strolled around the campus. The students wanted to see the campus where they would spend the next three years, and the parents also wanted to see their children's school.

"Hey!" Du Lei's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Wang Peng's hand. "Brother Peng, look! Two beautiful women!"

The two girls in front of them turned around at the same time.

The girl on the right has an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, doe-like eyes, and skin as white as a freshly steamed bun.

The girl on the left is wearing sneakers, slim-fit jeans, has a curvy figure, and a long ponytail.

"Hi," Du Lei said in English, "Which class are you two from?"

"Hmph, what an idiot." The girl with the ponytail glared at Du Lei, then grabbed the hand of the girl on her right. "Mengjiao, ignore him."

Du Lei was completely ignored.

"She called you an idiot, why didn't you call her back?" Wang Peng teased Du Lei.

Du Lei blushed and shouted, "Second place is Li Mengjiao, and first place is Wang Peng. Let's get to know each other."

His voice was like a loudspeaker, and both girls turned around at the same time.

Wang Peng underestimated Du Lei's shamelessness.

A kid who's already in a relationship in the first year of junior high is really shameless.

Two girls came up to the two boys.

"You're Wang Peng from Wangcun Junior High School?" Li Mengjiao looked down at him.

"It is indeed me, classmate. What advice do you have for me?" Wang Peng replied with a smile.

Li Mengjiao was the top student at Ping'an Town No. 1 Middle School, and she was naturally proud and arrogant.

She comes from a well-off family; you can tell from her clothes.

Ninety percent of the students wore handmade clothes and cloth shoes made by their mothers, but she dressed very fashionably.

"Two months." Li Mengjiao held up two fingers. "At most two months, and I'll take first place from you."

Wang Peng smiled, "It might not even take two months."

After military training, there will be a placement test. As a middle-aged man who has been reborn and hasn't touched a textbook for decades, it's unrealistic to expect to get first place right away.

Li Mengjiao was stunned. She didn't expect her opponent to not take the hit. Her punch landed on cotton.

"Wang Peng, you're only two points ahead of Meng Jiao. With a little effort, you can surpass her," the round-faced girl said smugly.

"Even a point higher is still a point higher." Du Lei stared at her. "What's your name? What was your ranking in the high school entrance exam?"

"My name is Chen Xiaojing. What was my ranking?" She put her hands on her hips. "What's your name? What was your ranking in the high school entrance exam?"

"My name is Du Lei." Du Lei's imposing manner weakened by three points.

His ranking was outside the top 200.

Chen Xiaojing, also from Ping'an Town No. 1 Middle School, ranked ninth in the county in the high school entrance examination and was Li Mengjiao's deskmate.

Only two girls were in the top ten in the entire county, and those two were them.

"Du Lei? I've never heard of him." Chen Xiaojing said even more arrogantly, "I've only heard of the top ten."

"Good grief, you look down on me?" Du Lei was completely dumbfounded.

"Alright, alright." Wang Peng put his arm around his shoulder. "Brother Lei, let's go."

Although comparing grades is childish, Wang Peng doesn't dislike it, since it's part of high school life.

"Hmph, for Brother Peng's sake, I won't hold it against you," Du Lei continued stubbornly.

"I'm letting you off the hook out of respect for Brother Peng." Chen Xiaojing put her hands on her hips, her attitude suggesting she was not to be trifled with.

"Actually, I don't have that much influence," Wang Peng laughed. "My two beautiful classmates, let's chat another day."

He put his arm around Du Lei and they left the dormitory for the teaching building to find their respective classes.

"When I call them 'beautiful women,' Chen Xiaojing calls me an idiot. But when you call them 'beautiful women,' why don't they call you that?"

"Who knows, you idiot?"

"Holy crap, you dare to insult me?"

...

Wang Peng was very happy because Du Lei had moved on from the shadow of his first love with the scumbag Feng Lingling.

He will no longer be treated like an ATM by Feng Lingling, nor will he be cuckolded by her, nor will he suffer the fate of having children who are not his own.
