MTL - The Reborn Scholar Wants To Counterattack

Chapter 3: Seventeen again

 “Are you a fool?! Let’s go!” Gu Weimian turned around angrily and grabbed the man’s collar.

The man lowered his eyes and looked at Gu Weimian quietly, as if he was not facing a scene of blazing fire, but a refreshing blue sky and blue sea, and said in a long voice: "I won't leave."

"I'm going to die!" Gu Weimian's hand on Huo Yan's collar continued to tighten, and despair gradually overwhelmed her.

 There is also strong doubt and confusion.

"I know." A low, hoarse male voice sounded in Gu Weimian's ears.

 In the firelight, the man's deep eyes had a calming power, which made Gu Weimian calm down instantly.

She didn’t understand. Aren’t they enemies? Why did Huo Yan come to save her?

 Even...even without regard for one's own life.

The flames have engulfed the man's lower body and spread to his chest. His hands are still as steady as a mountain, as if he will continue to support her standing forever after he dies.

 “Boom!—”

There was a loud noise and everything returned to darkness.

Gu Weimian closed his eyes, all questions ended with death.

 …

"boom-"

Gu Weimian only felt a sharp pain behind him. His back hit the wall, and there was a burning sensation.

 A familiar voice that I haven’t heard for a long time sounded in my ears.

 “You! You hit me?!”

 Gu Weimian had a splitting headache and reluctantly opened her eyes. She couldn't focus her eyes for a long time. With great difficulty, she finally fixed her eyes on the other person's face.

 Gu Siyu.

She is so young, she looks only 17 or 18 years old.

She held her right cheek with one hand, her eyes filled with disbelief. Where her hand was not blocking it, there was clearly a red slap mark.

 A simple movement, Gu Siyu did so beautifully and lovingly.

Gu Weimian leaned back on the table behind him, his brows furrowed and his palms stinging. Was this slap given by her?

 Gu Siyu sobbed and said, "I said I would give you cheat sheets for the next exam, why do you still beat me?"

Gu Weimian blinked, cheat sheet?

 My head hurts, and my whole body is still in a trance.

She glanced around and saw a classroom. A teacher wearing a white shirt and a gray suit was standing on the podium, looking sharply at this side.

What the **** is going on? Wasn't she already dead? She died in the fire. How could she be here again in the blink of an eye?

 The pain in my back is a constant reminder that this is reality.

Gu Weimian held her forehead with one hand, her face grimacing from the headache, and the natural sunlight made her pupils shrink.

Beside her, Gu Siyu was still sobbing, which gave her a headache.

She narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Stop crying."

Gu Siyu's eyes widened in shock, her lips trembled, she was so frightened by Gu Weimian that she could not speak.

The head teacher Zhao Yueyun's eyes sharpened and he scolded with a cold face: "Gu Weimian, what's the matter with you? Are you allowed to beat your classmates casually?!"

 Gu Siyu looked at Gu Weimian, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes. It was excitement that Gu Weimian was about to fall into the dust!

 Come on, let's make a scene and slap her again! Send Gu Weimian to **** completely!

Gu Weimian frowned, and the long-standing memory was reviving. It seemed that something like this happened in class that year. Because she failed in the first mock test, Gu Siyu said something in front of her, and she became angry for a moment. , and slapped Gu Siyu.

After Gu Siyu was beaten, she told the teacher that it was because she did not make cheat sheets for herself during this mock test.

Because of this incident, Gu Weimian was criticized by the whole school and even received a penalty. The whole school knew that Gu Weimian cheated in the exam, although she did not.
