Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Chapter 221 Screwed

Yang Mei was packing her stuff when she heard a knock on the door. She turned her head to find Lu Xuan standing at the door of the class.

“Come in, ” Yang Mei smiled. “The school is over. I was about to leave. If you hadn’t come on time, I would have left. I thought you forgot about your laptop.”

Lu Xuan scratched his head. It wasn’t that he had forgotten about taking his stuff from her. It was just that he knew that she liked to eat something when school got over. For that thing only, he went to the school cafeteria to buy something for her.

“The maths teacher took extra time, ” Lu Xuan said with an embarrassed smile. Oh, he couldn’t tell himself that the maths teacher had to leave class early because of some personal matters. He just spends all this time selecting something for her to eat.

“Oh yeah, I heard you are in class A of Eleven grade. The teachers always take extra time, ” Yang Mei said with a nod.

“Umm…how do you know?” Lu Xuan ended up asking.

“My dad works in this school and I got admission here through a special quota, ” Yang Mei explained. “That year, I had won a music competition and Jingyuan High accepted my admission form because of that reason alone. I wasn’t in the top class because I was quite average in my studies. But you are in class A of eleven grade, it means you are good in studies.”_.

Lu Xuan only smiled. It was good that she only knew good things about him. She must not know about his dark history in Jingyuan High school. What if someone told her that he was a gangster in the school? His eyes widened in fear. No, no, she couldn’t know this.

He had an urge to smack himself. Who had asked him to be a gangster?

Since he already was a gangster and there was nothing he could do about it. He could still stop people from badmouthing him on the school forum or before her, right?

“This is your laptop, ” Yang Mei said as he handed him his laptop. “Why did you bring it to the class? Try leaving these things at home. What if you lost it? Your laptop looked quite expensive.”

“Okay, ” Lu Xuan agreed but he was already thinking of leaving something at music class.

“This is for you, ” He handed her a burger and bottle of juice.

“What’s the need of that?” Yang Mei asked.

“You helped me, ” Lu Xuan immediately said.

“No, I can’t accept it, ” Yang Mei said with a smile.

“Please, Miss Yang, ” Lu Xuan insisted. “My dad gifted me this laptop on my birthday. If I had lost it, I would be very sad, after all, it’s something my dad gave me with a lot of love and blessings. You don’t realise the gravity of the situation if I had lost it. I can’t thank you enough. Please accept my gratitude in the form of this burger and juice. Please.”

Seeing how the boy was so sincere, Yang Mei didn’t have the heart to say no to him. Wasn’t it just a burger and juice? She should not break the heart of a child, right? As an elder, she should set good examples.

“Then, I will have to thank student Lu for this, ” Yang Mei smiled as she took the burger and juice bottle.

“Student Lu?” Lu Xuan looked here and there as if he was looking for someone here. “Are there other students too?”

Yang Mei laughed. “No, I mean I have to thank you, student Lu Xuan.”

Although she found a middle ground, he was still happy about it.

“Miss Yang, can I ask you about the music competition you are preparing students for?” Lu Xuan asked her.

Yang Mei got excited. She sat on the chair while he took the desk next to her and explained him about the music competition that the students were preparing for. She was explaining with great enthusiasm, making gestures with her hands and she looked so passionate about her work. He had never found anyone more beautiful than this woman. She looked like a goddess when she talked about music.

While she was explaining, he was sitting here with his elbows on the desk and his chin placed on his palms.

He didn’t care about being an idiot at this moment.

“Student Lu Xuan, can you dance?” Yang Mei asked.

Lu Xuan, who was in a daze, was blinking his eyes from time to time.

“You can?” Yang Mei asked again. When she realised that he was lost somewhere, she waved her hand before him. “Student Lu Xuan? Student Lu Xuan?”

“Yes?” Lu Xuan came out of his trance when he heard his voice again.

“Excellent!” Yang Mei clapped her hand. “Since you can dance, why don’t you join the students in the competition? Apart from the musicians, we need a group of dancers for the competition too. Why don’t you come to me in the morning and I will give you a form to sign?”

Lu Xuan blinked his eyes. Dance and him? He didn’t recall dancing anytime in his life. How could he dance? No, he couldn’t dance at all!

What if he danced and she realised that even a monkey danced better than him?

No, no, he couldn’t do it.

He couldn’t drown his ship before coming into the water. He had to do something. He had to say no before he could make a fool out of himself.

“Please, Lu Xuan, ” Yang Mei added when she saw the complicated look on his face. “We really need help at this moment.”

Only now did Lu Xuan understand what it meant when someone said that a pleading tone of a woman could bring the King of the world to its knees. Imagine, what would happen if the woman pleading was as beautiful as an immortal fairy.

“Okay, Miss Yang, ” Lu Xuan found himself saying with a smile that suggested his spring had arrived.

‘You are screwed, Lu Xuan. You are so much screwed.”
