Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle

Chapter 17

“Wang Tie, do you have a plan?” Wang Tie asked curiously.

“Come here.” Yi Feng beckoned him closer.

Wang Tie leaned in, and Yi Feng whispered in his ear.

Wang Tie’s face lit up, “Yi Feng, you’re brilliant!”

“Your plan… is wicked!”

Yi Feng patted his shoulder and grinned, “Guaranteed to give Hou Zixing a sour experience.”

…

During the afternoon, Class 2 and Class 1 had PE together.

Hou Zixing sat on the steps of the sports field, watching Gu Muxi play shuttlecock in the soccer field, smiling stupidly.

Gu Muxi, in her loose school uniform and ponytail, her exquisite and beautiful face always wearing a sweet smile, her skin as white as jade shining under the sun.

“Gu Muxi looks so beautiful today!” Hou Zixing rested his chin in his hands, never taking his eyes off her.

“Heh, Gu Muxi is our school’s belle. Of course, she’s beautiful. Go for it, Brother Xing! You’ll definitely win her over one day!” a skinny youth with sharp features encouraged.

“Yeah, I think Brother Xing and the school beauty are a perfect match!”

“Right, Brother Xing will definitely win Gu Muxi’s heart!” Several male classmates chimed in supportively.

Students passing by gave them a wide berth.

Hou Zixing was known as a tyrant in Class 2, tall and strong with a formidable presence. No one dared to mess with him, and his entourage only added to his intimidation.

Hearing their encouragement, Hou Zixing’s confidence soared, “Of course, no matter what, I must make Gu Muxi mine!”

Suddenly, on the field, he saw Yi Feng approach Gu Muxi and they started talking. Gu Muxi seemed to lash out playfully, and Yi Feng turned to run, initiating a playful chase on the field.

Hou Zixing’s face darkened instantly.

“Damn, that little punk Yi Feng is still pestering Muxi!”

“Xu Hao, remember to keep an eye on him after school. Don’t let him escape!”

“I’ll teach him a lesson!” Hou Zixing declared.

Xu Hao, the skinny youth, whispered back, “No problem, Brother Xing. Leave it to me. I’ll block him after school!”

Hou Zixing snorted, “That punk Yi Feng is in for it.”

Saying this, he clenched his fists, making a sinister cracking sound.

“Heh, with his skinny frame, Brother Xing can easily beat him!” Xu Hao smirked.

Hou Zixing boasted, “Even if I let him use one arm, I’ll still knock him down!”

He had been infatuated with Gu Muxi for three years. With graduation approaching, he was determined to make his move in these last two months before they went their separate ways.

But first, he needed to remove the obstacles around Gu Muxi, especially Yi Feng, who had publicly kissed her and stolen her first kiss.

Unforgivable!

His gaze fixated on Yi Feng, watching him and Gu Muxi play on the field only fueled his anger.

“Damn it, let’s go!” The more he watched, the angrier he became. Unable to act in school, he chose to walk away to avoid seeing more.

Leading his group away, Hou Zixing glanced back at Yi Feng, sneering in anticipation of their confrontation.

Meanwhile, Yi Feng, noticing Hou Zixing’s departure, smirked, having already anticipated his reaction.

“Yi Feng, you stop right there! Who said I have elephant legs? Explain yourself!”

“Or I’ll tear you apart!” Gu Muxi threatened, baring her cute little fangs as if to pounce on Yi Feng.

Yi Feng raised his hands, “Stop!”

“What now?” Gu Muxi halted, waiting for his explanation.

“No, no, I was wrong. I take back what I said about your legs being like elephant legs,” Yi Feng stated solemnly.

Gu Muxi seemed satisfied, “That’s more like it. You only learn your lesson after a beating!”

“No, I meant they’re more like crocodile legs! Hahaha!” Yi Feng couldn’t resist teasing her further.

“Yi Feng, you’re dead meat!” Gu Muxi lunged at him, pinning him to the ground on the grass.

“Take this, my deadly cross lock!” Gu Muxi wrapped her arms around his head, locking it against her chest, while her legs entwined his arms and body, immobilizing him.

Yi Feng, nearly suffocated, pleaded, “Let go, let go, I’m dying here!”

Gu Muxi eased her grip slightly, smirking, “That’ll teach you!”

Yi Feng gasped for air, resting his head against her chest.

Hmm… it’s surprisingly soft and comfy…

He closed his eyes, savoring the moment.

“Yi Feng, you okay?” Concerned, Gu Muxi thought she had choked him unconscious.

Seeing Yi Feng’s smug smile and how he rubbed his head against her chest, she exploded.

“Yi Feng, you jerk!” With a kick, Yi Feng was sent flying.

Her cheeks flushed to her neck, a mix of embarrassment and anger.

This awful guy! Taking advantage of me!

How despicable!

“Chill, Gu Muxi, don’t act rashly. Rash actions are the devil’s work!” Yi Feng advised as he stood up, rubbing his backside.

Gu Muxi clenched her fists, ominously warning, “Don’t resist, don’t struggle, it’ll be over soon, hehe…”

Yi Feng: “∑(o_o；)！！”

At that moment, only one thought crossed his mind.

Run!

He turned and fled.

“Stop running! Stand still!” Gu Muxi shouted, chasing after him.

The chase resumed, drawing the attention of their classmates.

Chen Jiajia, watching from the sidelines, commented to Wang Tie, “Don’t they look like a couple of lovebirds?”

“Heh, yeah, they’re a perfect match!” Wang Tie chuckled.

Chen Jiajia sighed enviously, “I wish I had a relationship like theirs… It’s so nice.”

Wang Tie suddenly remembered something urgent, “Oh, I gotta go!”

“I almost forgot something important!”

…

As the PE teacher blew the whistle for class to end, Hou Zixing and Xu Hao were plotting how to confront Yi Feng after school.

Suddenly, Wang Tie, rushing back, accidentally collided with Hou Zixing.

“Damn, watch where you’re going!” Hou Zixing scolded, grabbing Wang Tie by the collar.

“Sorry, sorry, it was an accident,” Wang Tie apologized, holding a bottle of ice-cold Coke.

“Are you Yi Feng’s desk mate?” Hou Zixing glared at him.

“Uh, yeah, I’m Wang Tie.”

“Whose drink is this?”

“This is… for Feng, Yi Feng…”

“I’ll take it. If he’s brave enough, let him come to me!” Hou Zixing snatched the

Coke, arrogantly declaring.

Wang Tie bowed his head, saying nothing, seemingly defeated.

“Get lost!” Hou Zixing shoved him away.

Wang Tie ran off without looking back.

“Ha, what a coward. Yi Feng is probably just as cowardly,” Hou Zixing mocked.

He opened the Coke and took several big gulps.

“Ah, nothing beats an ice-cold Coke!” He belched contentedly.

After a confrontation, Hou Zixing left the field, unable to bear watching Yi Feng and Gu Muxi’s playful interaction any longer.

Yi Feng, noticing Hou Zixing’s departure, couldn’t help but smirk, aware of the upcoming challenge.

“Yi Feng, stop! Who said my legs look like elephant legs? Explain yourself!”

“Or I’ll tear you in half!” Gu Muxi charged at Yi Feng, threatening to unleash her deadly cross lock.

Yi Feng managed to calm her down, only to provoke her further by comparing her legs to those of a crocodile, leading to another playful chase that captivated their classmates.

Chen Jiajia and Wang Tie observed their antics, envying their close and teasing relationship, unaware of the confrontation Yi Feng would soon face with Hou Zixing.
