"If I, Xia Ruoming, continue to like Xu Fengwu and continue to be his bootlicker, I will stand upside down and wash my hair with Coke!" Xia Ruoming swore as she held her forehead. Her image was ruined. Damn, why didn't she remember this part? Did she drink too much? "Now you believe it, right?"
Ji Chuan still looked at Xia Ruoming with suspicion, and then slowly said: "It's okay, sister, don't swear all the time. You have to know that licking dogs is not so easy to change. What if you think of it again one day, and Xu Fengwu waves his hand at you again, you will have to go and lick him."
"You kid...are you itching for trouble?" Xia Ruoming pressed her fist and gave Ji Chuan a playful smile.
Ji Chuan immediately got scared. He was just a total otaku. Although this sister was a girl, she was born with sports expertise after all. She was a head taller than him. Although she gave up basketball for five years, she never missed a single day of exercise. She was really self-disciplined and there was no way he could beat her.
"Sister, are you really okay?" Although Ji Chuan's words were harsh, he was really concerned and even changed his way of addressing her. He had seen the scene where Xia Ruoming almost hurt herself after her defense was broken. Ji Chuan was really afraid that this was some kind of mental illness before the onset of the last breath. Xia Ruoming might die tonight. Should he notify his aunt?
"Stop talking nonsense. Let's have a barbecue together tonight, and then play Dota2. I'll show you how to play mid-lane TK. Just wait and see if I can kill the opponent." Xia Ruoming patted Ji Chuan's head, and suddenly felt something was wrong. "You still remember to call me sister? Why are you so concerned about me today?"
"I'm worried that you might get drunk again tonight and hit me with a bottle." Ji Chuan scratched his head. Xia Ruoming seemed to have really changed, but something was wrong. She looked a lot older... ?
When Xia Ruoming heard this, she suddenly sighed imperceptibly. It seemed that her willfulness had brought a lot of trouble to those who cared about her.
"I hope I didn't cause any trouble for Aunt Zhong..." Xia Ruoming asked in a low voice, only now remembering this question.
She didn't dare drink in front of Liu Ruoxue at home, otherwise she would be scolded. She could only hide in Zhong Hui's house, crying and numbing her nerves with alcohol. Zhong Hui never scolded her or stopped her, and didn't even ask what happened. She just wiped the tears from her face with a hot towel after she got drunk, and then carried her to bed to sleep.
"It's not a trouble at all. My mom even said that if you can't get up, she'll ask for leave for you. My mom has already talked to Aunt Liu. She doesn't know about your drinking, so don't worry." Ji Chuan returned to his nonchalant look.
"Oh..." Xia Ruoming just sighed again, and her hand subconsciously wanted to touch the women's cigarettes in the bag, but she found that the women's Zippo and Marlboro Black Ice did not come back with her, and she was no longer the career woman who always carried a shoulder bag.
In the future, she developed mild cognitive impairment and open-mindedness phobia, which would flare up whenever she was nervous, but a small amount of nicotine could calm her down, and she became addicted to smoking.
There is a sarcastic joke in the future world: girls who smoke and drink but are good girls.
She smoked and drank. Although she didn't know if she was a good girl, she had never been to a nightclub for the past 20 years and had only given herself to one person. She seemed to have maintained the bottom line of an ordinary person.
"Let's go to the cafeteria to eat." Xia Ruoming, who failed to find a cigarette, had to give up and prepared to take Ji Chuan to the cafeteria.
"Aren't you going home today, sister?" Ji Chuan knew this childhood friend of hers very well. Once her defenses were broken, it would take her ten days or half a month to recover. Liu Ruoxue was strict at home, so only Ji Chuan's mother was so indulgent towards her.
Speaking of which, Liu Ruoxue treats Ji Chuan well, and Zhong Hui treats Xia Ruoming well, so are these two the wrong children? Ji Chuan has always had this question in his mind.
"Go back, why not go back? You've drunk enough and cried enough. Now it's time to start a new life. From today on, I'm going to forget the past and start my life again." Xia Ruoming looked at the blue sky outside the window in the corridor with a reminiscent look.
Although she really didn't want to be tortured again in her next life, it seemed that being reborn was not bad. After all, it was difficult to see such a sky in Rongcheng ten years later. It was always gray and just looking at it was enough.
"You're just like you've lived for decades. How old are you? Don't act so old all the time. Aren't you afraid of getting old?" Ji Chuan curled his lips, with some disdain in his tone. If you act so old, you have to be obedient in front of Aunt Liu. But I have to say that after crying all night, my sister seems to have the aura of a B king.
"This is not getting old, it's growing up. Never mind, you won't understand now even if I tell you. Stopping clinging to the past and becoming more attuned to the world is also part of growing up."
"Lululu, you're still preaching after crying like that last night. Aren't you afraid of getting old? Let's go. If you keep preaching, it will be too late and there will be no seats in the cafeteria." Ji Chuan made a face and ran to the cafeteria.
"Tsk, brat." Xia Ruomeng shook her head helplessly. It seemed that her sworn brother would never grow up and had no worries. In her previous life, she received a lot of help from Ji Mengxian and Zhong Hui. In the most difficult time, Zhong Hui even sold her wedding jewelry to help her. There was no IOU, no guarantee, and they didn't even say it was a loan, nor did they tell her when she needed to pay it back. Ji Mengxian and the others just handed her a thick envelope and told her to take it in a very serious tone, without giving her any chance to refuse.
In this life, she was also prepared to pave the way for her brother's future. In his previous life, Ji Chuan was too upright and had run into obstacles everywhere. Now, she would give him a space to fully display his uprightness and straightforwardness.
Only when someone helps you in your time of need do you realize the warmth and coldness of human nature.
The mid-spring sunshine shone on her body, bringing a touch of warmth, and she felt the benefits of youth again. Her legs no longer felt like they were filled with lead, and her spirit no longer felt exhausted.
People on campus kept looking in Xia Ruoming's direction and whispering to their companions. Perhaps they knew that her confession had failed, and they were all laughing at her for being a licker for so long, or at Xu Fengwu, who was also a woman. Although she was always surrounded by all kinds of beautiful women, she never turned back to take a look, thinking that her world only had Xu Fengwu.
It doesn’t matter, she won’t continue to be stupid in this life.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, or maybe it’s the benefit of being reborn, but Xia Ruoming feels that her body is much lighter than when she remembered high school. Has her body gotten better after her rebirth?
