Chapter 63

Li Tangqiu's worries were not unfounded. In 1996, universities had not yet expanded their enrollment, and for a regular high school like Heyang No.1 High School, it was already quite difficult for current students to get into a junior college.

Especially, Li Tangqiu knew that Xiao Fei was a rural student from a not-so-well-off family. Being able to attend a university was already quite good, and who knew what might happen if he were to repeat another year?

Li Tangqiu now felt an impulse to hide Xiao Fei's acceptance letter.

To prevent the promising candidate for a key university from being tempted by this shabby junior college and impulsively deciding to attend. If that were to happen, who could he complain to?

Li Tangqiu was hesitating.

What he didn't know was that Xiao Fei had already seen the text on the acceptance letter in his hand.

H Province Commercial College?

This school really seemed to be纠缠 (entangled) with him to the death.

In his previous life, after the 1997 college entrance exam, Xiao Fei was admitted to this junior college, even though he hadn't applied to it. He had no choice but to attend the commercial college, spending three years in a campus that resembled a quadrangle courtyard. The experience of finding a job after graduation was truly a bitter and painful history that he couldn't bear to recall.

Xiao Fei never thought that after being reborn, he would unexpectedly encounter it again.

He felt a bit amused and frustrated.

"Mr. Li, is this my acceptance letter?" Xiao Fei reached out and took the acceptance letter from Li Tangqiu, who was still in a daze.

"Ah?! Yes, it's yours, indeed it is your acceptance letter. However, Xiao Fei, this school isn't very good. The state no longer guarantees job placement, and you'll have to find a job on your own after graduation. If you really go to this school, your future employment will be a big problem. Listen to me, don't go, and instead, repeat another year to aim for a key university. I believe you have the capability," Li Tangqiu said hurriedly.

So, this was what Li Tangqiu was worried about.

Xiao Fei smiled and suddenly "tear, tear" a few times, tearing the acceptance letter into pieces and throwing it into the trash can.

Li Tangqiu was speechless and stood there in shock.

He didn't expect Xiao Fei to tear up the acceptance letter and throw it away.

It was quite rare for a student to have the courage to tear up their acceptance letter. This required a tremendous courage, like burning one's boats and fighting with one's back against the wall.

However, he was then filled with wild joy. Now he didn't have to worry about Xiao Fei attending H Province Commercial College. It seemed that Xiao Fei was a very independent person.

At this moment, the class bell rang.

Xiao Fei said goodbye to Li Tangqiu, "Mr. Li, you're busy, I won't disturb you. I'll go find Yan Zhang."

Leaving Li Tangqiu's office, Xiao Fei went upstairs to the entrance of Class 1 of the Literature Repeaters. His heart suddenly beat fiercely because he saw a pretty short-haired girl sitting in the middle of the third row.

Who else could it be but Xu Fengjuan?

Although he mainly came to the school to find Yan Zhang, he couldn't deny the strong desire to catch a glimpse of Xu Fengjuan.

Still the same bob cut.

Still the same delicate face.

She sat at her desk, her left hand pressing on a book, her right hand holding a pen, writing and drawing with such focus and dedication, oblivious to the noise around her.

His eyes were fixed on her.

He examined her carefully, looking again and again.

As if trying to imprint her current appearance firmly in his heart.

Even when a classmate walked by and greeted him, he didn't hear.

Many of the students in Class 1 of the Literature Repeaters were Xiao Fei's former classmates. Seeing Xiao Fei come, they naturally wanted to say a word to him. But they didn't expect Xiao Fei to be so dazed and unresponsive.

Following Xiao Fei's gaze, they saw Xu Fengjuan, who was diligently studying at her desk, and they started to tease her.

"Xu Fengjuan, someone is looking for you."

"Xu Fengjuan, someone has fallen in love with you, please give them a chance!"

"Xu Fengjuan, don't you feel the burning gaze on you? Be careful not to be melted by this intense admiration!"

These guys were making a commotion, laughing and shouting.

Xiao Fei was startled by his own behavior and quickly adjusted his state, kicking these guys who were teasing him to the side.

Xu Fengjuan was also startled.

Her deskmate, a skinny girl, pushed her playfully and whispered, "There's a boy outside the door watching you, he seems to be in love with you."

Xu Fengjuan looked up and saw Xiao Fei's gaze.

Xiao Fei smiled slightly and nodded at her, trying his best to appear charming.

Xu Fengjuan recognized the boy outside the door, who was grinning like a foxtail flower, as the annoying guy who had approached her at the North Street Elementary School exam site.

She immediately felt a strong aversion and coldly snorted, then lowered her head again.

Xiao Fei was a bit taken aback.

The situation seemed a bit dire.

Xu Fengjuan seemed to have a prejudice against him and didn't even want to look at him. What was going on?

In his previous life, they only started to contact each other after the college entrance exam and after they both entered university. Xu Fengjuan had once told Xiao Fei that she had a good impression of him during her repeat year and had always kept his image in her heart.

In this life, it seemed that his rash approach last time had altered the course of history.

This made Xiao Fei very depressed.

Xiao Fei touched his nose, trying to hide his sense of defeat, and thought that he would wait until he finished his current tasks and officially came to repeat the year to try to change Xu Fengjuan's impression of him.

At this moment, he saw Yan Zhang and You Gui coming up from downstairs.

He was about to go to meet them.

A tall and fat guy walked past him, looking up with his nose in the air, giving him a haughty glance and snorting.

"Hmph!"

He walked away gracefully, heading downstairs.

Wang Fei?

It was Wang Fei.

Xiao Fei didn't expect that his first encounter with Wang Fei in this life would still be filled with tension.

Wang Fei was one of Xiao Fei's best friends in his previous life. Their friendship lasted for many years, and they played together quite well.

This person had a contradictory personality. He could be generous and open-handed, but also cunning and shameless. But in general, he was a good drinking buddy.

Wang Fei came to repeat his studies from a high school in a town below.

He was quite smart and had good academic performance.

In his previous life, after Wang Fei repeated his studies at No.1 High School in 1996, he ranked first in the literature repeaters class in the first few exams organized by the school, becoming Li Tangqiu's new favorite.

However, he was later overtaken by Xiao Fei, who firmly suppressed him.

In the competition for exam results, the two of them actually built a friendship, forming a small circle around them. In the second half of the repeat year, they ate, drank, watched videos, and played video games together, getting more and more excited. In the end, none of the people in this small circle did well in the 1997 college entrance exam. The best performer, Zhu Xilin, only got into the provincial finance college, Yan Zhang and You Gui barely managed to attend the teacher's college in X City, and Xiao Fei was admitted to the provincial commercial college as a supplementary candidate.

This was what they called "God makes one mad before He destroys one."

This kind of self-destructive life change during the repeat year was not uncommon, and it was said that a few cases would appear in the repeat classes of Heyang No.1 High School every year.

In his previous life, Xiao Fei unfortunately fell victim to this curse.

Wang Fei was the trigger for the curse.

Reflecting on the past, it was truly a cause for sighs and laments.
