Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Chapter 67 Truth

“Big Boss Han?” Yan Shan stuttered as soon as he saw Han Zixin when he got out of the restroom. The school tyrant was leaning against the wall, with his arms crossed across his chest.

“What do you mean by this, classmate? How can you notice me?” An Xiulan said as she saw how the classmate was not looking at her at all. She waved her hands before him to get his attention.

“Xiao Lan, what are you doing outside the men’s washroom?” Yan Shan asked gently.

“We are following you, duh,” An Xiulan laughed but then her expressions froze as she realised what she had just done. She snitched on herself, the thought made her want to dig a hole and hide here.

Before Yan Shan could say anything or ask why they were following him, Han Zixim had to take matters into his hands before his stupid classmate decided to screw the chance that they had gotten._.

“Classmate Yan, are you still going to say that you don’t like the girl?” Han Zixin asked, raising his brow at the teenager.

“What girl are you talking about?” Yan Shan furrowed his brows and asked.

“The girl you are accompanying today,” said An Xiulan as a matter of fact.

“Oh, you are talking about Xiao Xi?” Yan Shan said with a smile and both An Xiulan and Han Zixin exchanged a look indicating how they were on nickname bases.

“Of course, I like her,” Yan Shan said with a soft smile. “In fact, I like her a lot.”

“Yan Shan! You said you will not fall into puppy love!” An Xiulan screeched, earning bad looks from the passersby. Pointing her finger at him, she said dramatically, “How could you? How could you even entertain the thought of falling in love with someone else while I was around you all this while? Do you know what I have not done to make sure that you don’t fall in love with that girl? How could you do that? Now you are going to marry her, aren’t you?”

The onlookers were giving dirty gazes at Yan Shan as they believed that he was a scumbag who was having two girlfriends at the same time.

Han Zixin glared at the dumb case and pulled her away to talk to the boy himself as he was worried that she was going to cause more problems and misunderstandings than necessary.

“You said you like the girl?” Han Zixin asked the boy who nodded his head in reply. “Then, why did you lie that you were not in a relationship with that girl when we asked you? Were you lying to the president and vice president of the school puppy love committee?”

Yan Shan was about to nod his head but then the words settled in his head and he looked at both of them in disgust and dramatically took a step back.

“How could you say that?” Yan Shan asked both of them. He looked so disgusted right now that he could vomit over these two right now.

“With our mouth,” came the reply from An Xiulan. When the two boys looked at her, she hehehed and then muttered while scratching her head, “Obviously, with our mouth.”

“Big Boss Han, Xiao Lan, I’m not in a romantic relationship with Xiao Xi,” replied Yan Shan. “Hell, I can’t even think about it with her.”

“Are you saying that your not being able to concentrate on your studies and game have nothing to do with love?” Han Zixin asked.

“It has,” Yan Shan agreed.”But it has nothing to do with the love between Xiao Xi and I. We don’t have romantic love between us.”

“Oh, does it mean she is only your fling?” An Xiulan asked in a serious tone and Han Zixin glared at her but she gave him a look by blinking her and signalling him to let her talk. “Qiao Wei told me that fling is the time period when you are considering a candidate for a potential boyfriend or girlfriend. You don’t want to say no to him/her but you don’t want to say yes either.”

Yan Shan sighed as he heard her words. “It’s nothing like that. I will tell you the truth.” He closed his eyes for a while, taking in deep breaths and then opened his eyes to say, “The reason why I have been not able to concentrate on my studies or field was love. But it’s not the love between Xiao Xi and I but between her mama and my dad.”

“What?!!!” Both Han Zixin and An Xiulan reacted at the same time.

Yan Shan nodded and brought them with him to show him a particular thing. In the restaurant, Yan Shan’s father and Xiao Xi’s mom were holding each other’s hands while looking into each other’s eyes tenderly.

“My Bà is a plumber,” Yan Shan said in a soft voice. “One day, he came to our school to repair a leaking pipe. The same day, Xiao Xi’s mama was there to deliver lunch boxes to the staff room. When he saw a beautiful and frail woman carrying those tens of lunchboxes so strongly, he fell in love with her. It was love at first sight for him after two years. The woman he had almost married after divorcing my mama left him and he was feeling lonely. Then, Auntie Xiao came to his life like a drop of rain in the hot summer…”

Yan Shan was narrating the story so tenderly that all three of them found themselves away from reality, where his father was the hero and Xiao Xi’s mana, the heroine. They were meeting on a hot summer day but as they walked past each other, the rain started pouring and she stumbled on to fell in his father’s arm.

Their daydream broke when Xiao Xi called for Yan Shan rather loudly.
