Chapter 2 Reborn with a Mission
The joy of rebirth was interrupted by a voice——
“Shen Zhiyi, is this funny?”
The sound is as pleasant as the gurgling of a spring, with a slightly rising ending that sounds a bit nonchalant.
Hearing this familiar male voice, Shen Zhiyi had a physiological reaction all over his body, feeling numb and tingling, as if an electric current passed through him.
She turned her head stiffly and looked towards the podium.
After a moment of daze, she finally took in the man's features. He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. His legs were incredibly long, straight and slender. His shoulders were broad, his waist was narrow, and his back was straight. His complexion was a cold, pale white that seemed to radiate its own light. His deep, angular features were defined by a cool, hard lineament. He was as handsome as the aloof male protagonist in a comic book. At first glance, he stood out in the crowd.
She moved her gaze up an inch and met his cold black eyes.
The man stared at her unhappily, as if he was very dissatisfied with her absent-mindedness. He put down the book in his hand and said, "You come up and solve this problem."
Shen Zhiyi hadn't recovered from her rebirth yet. She stood up slowly and said to the man, "Thank you, Xiao Lanting."
Instantly, everyone burst into laughter.
The man frowned slightly, his expression was stunned for a moment, and a faint laugh escaped his throat. "Thank me?"
He looked at her leisurely, his eyes flickering with interest. "Then add one more question, along with the last question on page 29, and send them to my email before ten o'clock tonight."
Shen Zhiyi nodded in a daze.
The man was stunned for a moment, his deep eyes implying a look of scrutiny. After a few seconds, he looked away and said calmly, "get out of class dismissed."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bell for the end of get out of class rang.
With a swish, Shen Zhiyi came back to his senses from the scene of his previous life.
She quickly sorted out her situation—she was reborn, back to a year ago, when she was taking a sophomore advanced mathematics class!
At this time, the students stood up and left the classroom one after another.
But she stared blankly at the man on the podium who was surrounded by female students, feeling strange.
If she saw correctly, the man was about to kiss her.
Could it be that he really likes her?
This realization overwhelmed her.
Although she never regarded him as a teacher, she also never had any improper thoughts about him.
Most importantly, he was always strict with her and there was no sign that he liked her at all.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you thinking about?"
A hand waved in front of her face.
She looked closely and found that it was her best friend Fan Xiaoqing.
Fan Xiaoqing's eyes were teasing and full of gossip. He stared at her with a smile, "What happened to you just now? This is the first time I see you scared by Xiao Yanwang. Didn't you just ignore him and continue sleeping for the past two weeks?"
Shen Zhiyi: "The past is the past. From today on, I will respect my teacher and be a good student."
Fan Xiaoqing: “?”
"Did you take the wrong medicine?"
Shen Zhiyi didn't answer her, her eyes uncontrollably lingered on the man's stern face, and the image of him holding her heartbroken kept flashing through her mind.
A strange, wonderful feeling blossomed in her heart.
"Look at you, you look like you're missing a man?" Fan Xiaoqing joked.
Following her gaze towards the podium, he tutted, "This man is truly stunning. Did you know that the former school hunk's name was removed from the school forum overnight and replaced with Xiao Lanting's?"
Shen Zhiyi nodded, she still remembered these.
Fan Xiaoqing was not satisfied with her overly calm reaction and continued, "He graduated from a prestigious university, is only 26 years old, and is the president of a technology company. He said he came to teach in our major to enrich his spare time. People from other majors are so envious. Look, those people outside are all here to admire Miss Xiao's beauty."
"Yeah." Shen Zhiyi's face remained calm, her chin propped up as she stared at Xiao Lanting without blinking. She kept wondering in her head whether he was going to kiss her at that moment.
Suddenly, her eyes accidentally met his, and she was so startled that she turned away in panic, pretending to look at the scenery.
My face is so hot.
"Well, Xiaoqing, let's go. I'm hungry. Let's go eat."
As she spoke, she stole a glance at the man on the podium.
He didn't seem to have looked over at all, as he was concentrating on explaining a difficult problem to a female classmate.
She was inexplicably upset and quickly walked out of the classroom, grabbing her backpack.
Sudden--
“Shen Zhiyi.”
A man's deep but loud voice came, and everyone around looked at her.
She turned her head stiffly, coughed lightly, and met his gaze calmly: "Hmm?"
Xiao Lanting walked towards her, and the intimidating feeling of his height and long legs slowly approached.
He frowned slightly, as if confused about something.
The next second, his hand was on her forehead, "Do you have a fever?"
It was the first time that Shen Zhiyi felt such an intimate touch from him, the pores on her body opened inexplicably and her heart was pounding.
She shook her head.
The man bent down, lowered his head to her level, and said in a deep voice, "Where is your usual aggressive demeanor?"
He was so close, so close that Shen Zhiyi could almost count the number of his eyelashes.
My breathing became lighter.
But she could still smell the faint woody scent on the man, like the faint scent of sandalwood that had been exposed to the sun.
The smell seemed to have a kind of bewitching power, making her look at him without blinking.
If the phone hadn't suddenly become hot and woke her up, she wouldn't know what shocking thing she would have done.
She hurriedly shook her head, without saying a word, and ran out of the classroom pulling Fan Xiaoqing.
The students around laughed out loud.
Someone said to the man, "Teacher Xiao, she must have been scared out of her wits by the online comments, that's why she's being so obedient."
Xiao Lanting looked at the boy and asked, "Leave a message?"
"Well, Teacher Xiao, you may not know this yet, but Shen Zhiyi is an adventure broadcaster who often goes to strange places to hunt for curiosities. She previously announced the location of her live broadcast tonight, and many people left messages telling her about the supernatural events that happened in that place before. She must have been scared by the messages."
After listening to this, the man looked in the direction the girl left, his eyes gradually becoming deeper.
**
After walking outside, Shen Zhiyi immediately took out his mobile phone to check.
Just now, the phone suddenly vibrated, and then it burned her palm.
This is a reminder to come to work.
When she opened her phone, she found an app with an icon of a Tai Chi Yin-Yang diagram and her name: Chen Zhiyi.
Seeing this, she remembered what happened before her rebirth.
After her death, she entered the Hades Palace. Because she had the destiny of a Heavenly Master, she was noticed by the Hades and made a deal with him.
Not long ago, tens of thousands of souls fled from the underworld, and many are still wandering outside. Due to lack of manpower, they temporarily hired dead souls to do the recycling task, and she became one of the lucky ones.
As long as she helps to retrieve those souls, she can return to the human world and continue to live by relying on merit points.
At this time, she only had less than a day's worth of merit left, and she had to capture a ghost before it was exhausted in order to continue living.
She opened the app and found an electronic compass inside.
The compass showed that there was a target nearby, and the target was getting closer and closer to her.
Seeing that they were only a few steps away, she raised her head, looked over there, and immediately frowned.
