Chapter 5: So you're really called Chen Fan?
The next morning, Chen Fan came to school full of determination.
As soon as he entered the classroom, he saw Su Ruochu sitting at her desk.
"Morning, student council president."
Chen Fan greeted her with a smile, but Su Ruochu's face turned red and she quickly lowered her head.
Ah, the wife is perfect in every way, except for this shy nature, which is really too shy.
Even in the previous life, when the two had confirmed their romantic relationship, Su Ruochu was still an extremely shy and traditional girl.
Chen Fan remembered the first time he finally managed to "lure" Su Ruochu to a hotel, but then he recklessly suggested wanting to try some new styles.
The consequence was that she immediately kicked him off the bed.
As a result, the wife didn't let him touch her for the entire night.
Comrades, these are bloody and painful lessons learned.
Chen Fan silently reminded himself in his heart.
He must learn from this experience and keep trying.
Courting a girl is hard work, and one must never be too hasty.
At this moment, Su Ruochu secretly passed a shopping bag to him.
"What's this?"
Chen Fan opened it and took a look, realizing they were his school uniforms.
He took them out and immediately smiled.
"You even washed them for me?"
He quickly put them on and then took a deep sniff.
"Smells great, what brand of laundry detergent did you use?"
"My wife... deskmate is just skillful."
Su Ruochu turned her head away with a red face.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll ask the teacher to change our seats."
"No, no..." Chen Fan quickly surrendered.
"I promise I won't say anything else!"
For the rest of the morning, Su Ruochu noticed that Chen Fan really didn't "harass" her again.
During class and break time, this guy was constantly holding his textbook, flipping through it, and occasionally writing or drawing with his pen.
He didn't even listen to the teacher's lecture, always immersed in his own world.
Su Ruochu curiously peeked at what he was doing and found that he was marking down some key points.
"What is he doing?"
Su Ruochu was puzzled.
"Could it be that he's trying to start working hard now? Isn't it a bit too late?"
Finally, on the third time she snuck a glance, Chen Fan suddenly looked up and grinned at Su Ruochu.
Su Ruochu was immediately startled like a frightened little rabbit, hastily averting her gaze as her heart pounded.
Chen Fan smiled and didn't bother her.
Instead, he lowered his head and continued flipping through the book.
To be honest, he didn't have a system or cheat codes after being reborn.
His only advantage was that he had taken the college entrance exam once before.
He had done all those exam questions before.
Although many years had passed and he had forgotten most of the questions.
But some of the key questions, Chen Fan had a deep impression of.
After all, those questions had tortured him mercilessly back then, and he couldn't answer many of them during the exam.
For example, Chen Fan clearly remembered that the last six analytical questions in math were worth 70 points.
He knew what the last three analytical questions were that had countless test-takers scratching their heads and crying in pain.
He knew which article was used for the reading comprehension in this year's college entrance examination in Chinese.
He knew this year's essay topic was about discussing different perspectives on life's problems and different solutions through the understanding of four symbolic shapes.
He knew the reading comprehension and essay topics for this year's English exam, and he also knew the science questions...
...
With all this, plus his current level of knowledge, striving for a score of 553 was absolutely possible.
During the noon break, his good buddy Guo Shuai came over.
"Brother Fan, wanna go out for a meal?"
Chen Fan shook his head: "You go ahead, I'll eat in the school cafeteria."
"The cafeteria food sucks, let me treat you to a nice meal outside."
Chen Fan immediately stood up.
"Let's go!"
"Damn! Did you have to be so real about it?"
Chen Fan smiled: "You rich kid, if I don't take advantage of you, who else would I take advantage of?"
Guo Shuai didn't get angry and just laughed as he put his arm around Chen Fan's neck.
"Don't worry, even if I have to keep treating you until the college entrance exam, I can afford it."
Chen Fan looked touched: "Indeed a great buddy. Could you lend me 20,000 yuan then?"
"Damn. You might as well just sell me and take the money."
The two joked and laughed as they left the classroom.
The college entrance exam was coming soon, and the school's supervision had obviously relaxed quite a bit.
When leaving the school, as long as you wore your student ID, teachers generally turned a blind eye and let you go straight out.
The restaurant across from the school gate was booming with business. If you went too late, you might not be able to get in line.
Chen Fan and Guo Shuai carried their trays with dejected looks, gazing at the room full of students.
"Maybe we should just get takeout and eat back in the classroom," Chen Fan suggested.
"No way. Look over there!"
Guo Shuai excitedly pulled Chen Fan through the crowd, and from afar, Chen Fan saw Su Ruochu eating.
Guo Shuai grinned and approached them.
"Two beautiful ladies, what a coincidence! Mind if we join your table?"
Su Ruochu and a girl named Li Na from their class, who they were on good terms with, were eating. When Li Na saw Chen Fan, her expression became slightly awkward.
Li Na smiled and asked, "Couldn't find seats? Sit with us."
She then got up and moved to sit together with Su Ruochu.
"Thanks, thanks."
Guo Shuai quickly pulled Chen Fan to sit down.
Chen Fan kept his head down and ate, while Li Na kept stealing glances at him.
Chen Fan couldn't stand it anymore and looked back at her.
"Do I have something dirty on my face?"
"Hehehe! No!"
Li Na grinned as she stared at Chen Fan.
"Chen Fan, why did you kiss Su Ruochu yesterday?"
As soon as she said that, Guo Shuai, who was eating, immediately sprayed out his rice.
Meanwhile, Su Ruochu's face turned bright red as she quickly pushed her friend.
Chen Fan, however, didn't seem fazed at all.
"That... was just a misunderstanding. I was having a nightmare about getting married."
His response made Li Na laugh.
"So you think our student council president is your wife?"
Chen Fan secretly glanced at Su Ruochu and quickly shook his head.
"That's what you said, I didn't say that."
Li Na continued to probe, "Then let me ask you, do you like Su Ruochu?"
"Yes!"
Chen Fan didn't hesitate and nodded in admission.
His response left Li Na stunned, while Su Ruochu, standing beside her, blushed and stood up.
"I'm done eating. I'm going back first."
"Hey, Ruochu, don't leave yet, I haven't finished asking."
Li Na called out anxiously a couple of times, then got up and chased after her.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to tease Chen Fan, "A can of chocolate candies, and I can tell you one of Su Ruochu's secrets."
"Remember, it has to be chocolate."
Watching Li Na grinning as she left, Chen Fan shook his head.
My wife's secrets, do I need you to tell me?
Seeing that Guo Shuai was still staring intently outside, Chen Fan couldn't help but knock on the table.
"What are you looking at?"
Guo Shuai gave an embarrassed grin.
"Brother, what do you think of Li Na's looks?"
Chen Fan was taken aback.
"You like Li Na?"
I didn't notice that.
In his previous life, he didn't remember Guo Shuai ever pursuing Li Na.
Across from him, Guo Shuai smiled sheepishly.
"Li Na's looks might not be exceptionally beautiful, but don't you think she looks great when she smiles?"
"Especially her smile, it really reminds me of my ex-girlfriend."
Chen Fan was surprised, "You had an ex-girlfriend?"
"Of course. My ex-girlfriend was Li Bingbing."
Damn!
I shouldn't have asked that.
Chen Fan lowered his head and continued eating silently.
"You still haven't told me what you think of Li Na."
"Hmm, not bad... I support you pursuing her!"
Chen Fan said vaguely as he ate.
Guo Shuai was in a great mood.
"Just for that comment from you, I'll treat you to this meal today."
Chen Fan immediately raised his hand.
"Miss, two more chicken drumsticks!"
...
After finishing lunch, Guo Shuai went to the restroom in the back.
Chen Fan stood alone by the roadside, his mind still frantically trying to recall the content of the college entrance exam questions.
At that moment, a few young men pushed open the restaurant's glass door and barged in.
"Who knows Chen Fan from Class 7, Grade 3?"
"Who's looking for me?" Chen Fan called out in confusion.
Those young men immediately turned and walked out. One of them, with a spiky hairstyle, glared at Chen Fan and sneered.
"So you're really called Chen Fan?"
