Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle

Chapter 38.1

On the way to school.

Gu Muxi and Yi Feng were each riding a bicycle forward.

Yi Feng rode behind, looking at Gu Muxi’s empty rear seat, still feeling some reluctance.

Gu Muxi really, what kind of gift is a bicycle to return the favor?

Yi Feng could only smile helplessly.

“Stop!”

Gu Muxi suddenly shouted ahead and stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Yi Feng also stopped behind her.

“Yi Feng, it’s time for you to keep your promise. Go buy me two old ice pops, two of them,” Gu Muxi stretched out two fingers.

Yi Feng pulled a face, “Eating ice pops early in the morning, aren’t you afraid of diarrhea?”

“I love to eat, what’s it to you?”

“Alright, alright, I really give up on you, I’ll go buy them for you.”

“Hehe, remember, two, don’t cheat.”

Yi Feng parked the bike next to the small shop, then bought two old ice pops from the owner.

“Here, for you.” Yi Feng handed both to her.

Gu Muxi joyfully took them, immediately opened the package, and started licking.

Yi Feng watched her, seeing her stick out her tender little tongue, licking the old ice pop again and again, occasionally putting the ice pop in her mouth and sucking on it, her tongue skillfully twirling around.

He stared so hard that he swallowed his saliva covertly.

“Gu Muxi, I didn’t expect you to be quite good at licking.”

“Of course, I’ve eaten no less than a thousand old ice pops! This is the best way to eat them!”

Gu Muxi didn’t catch the innuendo, thinking Yi Feng was talking about her licking the old ice pops.

“Hehe, I didn’t expect that eating old ice pops could also cultivate a good skill with the tongue, I’ll have a hard time dealing with you in the future!” Yi Feng chuckled softly.

“Hm? What do you mean hard to deal with?” Gu Muxi didn’t hear clearly and asked.

“Cough cough, nothing, just eat your old ice pop, we still have to go to school.” Yi Feng coughed twice, changing the subject.

Gu Muxi huffed, showing off a row of white teeth with two cute little canines, bit into the old ice pop, snapping off a piece.

Yi Feng inexplicably felt a chill down there…

“Wow, so many computers…” Gu Muxi, while eating, suddenly noticed a newly opened internet cafe next door, through the window, she saw people setting up computers.

Yi Feng noticed too.

The millennium was the year internet cafes started to become popular, with only a dozen or so in the entire city of Guang.

Mainly because computers were so expensive at the time, opening an internet cafe was costly, and to break even quickly, they had to charge a high price for internet access.

Now, internet cafes charge 10 yuan per hour, which is unaffordable for the average person, especially students.

Despite this, it still attracted many people to surf the internet, showing a strong ability to attract money, basically full every day, and you had to queue up to play.

By the second half of the millennium year, internet cafes in Guangxi City began to slowly increase, also becoming the preferred entertainment method for this generation of youth.

Yi Feng still remembered a saying that circulated back then, “Want to get rich, open an internet cafe,” in this era, opening an internet cafe was a lucrative business.

From the millennium onwards, the next 10 years were the golden era for internet cafes, with cafes opening up in every city across the country, more than game arcades.

In Yi Feng’s plan, opening an internet cafe was part of his business empire!

This easy money-making opportunity, such a big trend, he wouldn’t miss it.

“I really want to try playing on a computer…” Gu Muxi looked hopeful.

“Have you never been to an internet cafe?” Yi Feng asked in surprise.

Gu Muxi shook her head, “Internet cafes are so expensive, 10 yuan an hour, that can buy a lot of old ice pops!”

She really wanted to try, but the cost of internet access deterred her.

“Do you want a computer?” Yi Feng smirked and asked.

“Of course, I do, but a computer costs at least seven or eight thousand yuan now, a good one is even more expensive, where would I get that much money?” Gu Muxi turned and gave him a look.

“Forget it, let’s not look anymore.”

Gu Muxi moved to the other side, continuing to eat her old ice pop, but couldn’t help glancing over at the internet cafe.

Seeing this, Yi Feng secretly chuckled, once a person desires something, that desire is unstoppable.

He turned his eyes, probably knowing what to give her for her birthday next week.

Gu Muxi finished the old ice pop in big bites, then got on her bike and called out to Yi Feng, “Yi Feng, let’s go!”

…

The days of school were filled with review and endless problem-solving, everyone was preparing for the upcoming major exam.

As the college entrance examination approached, the atmosphere in the classroom became more tense, such days were calm yet monotonous.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

Yi Feng and Gu Muxi spent the week reviewing together, supporting each other, even after school, he would go to Gu Muxi’s room to study with her.

That Friday night, Yi Feng was in Gu Muxi’s room reviewing physics.

This was his weakest subject in science, and he planned to study it well, aiming to do well in every subject.

Re-taking the college entrance examination, he didn’t feel much pressure, confident in scoring full marks or near full marks in mathematics and English, without the pressure of these two subjects, he found studying somewhat easier.

“Yi Feng, can you solve this math problem?” Gu Muxi suddenly came over with her workbook and asked.

A fragrant scent entered his nose, Yi Feng looked up and saw Gu Muxi staring at him with her big watery eyes.

But Yi Feng’s gaze moved slightly downward, catching a glimpse of Gu Muxi’s loose neckline, a beautiful sight indeed, and his eyes were instantly fixated.

A phrase suddenly popped into his mind, when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

“Hm? What are you looking at?” Gu Muxi asked in confusion, following Yi Feng’s gaze, she looked down and realized what Yi Feng was looking at…

She blushed instantly, hurriedly covering her chest with her hands.

“Ah, what? I wasn’t looking at anything.” Yi Feng feigned ignorance.

“Go die!” Gu Muxi, blushing, kicked him out with one foot.

“Ouch! You violent maniac!”

“You big pervert!”

They accused each other.

Gu Muxi jumped up, then landed on Yi Feng, pinning him down, baring her teeth and said, “I’m going to gouge out your eyes!”

“Hehe, Gu Muxi, I don’t think you have the ability, watch out! Dragon Claw Hand!”

“Ah! You dare to resist? You’re asking for it! Deadly Cross Lock!”

The two of them started wrestling on the ground as soon as they disagreed.

“Knock knock.”

Just then, there was a knock on the door, followed by the door opening, and Li Wan appeared at the doorway.

She was stunned by the scene before her.

“You… what are you doing?”

Only to see Gu Muxi on top of Yi Feng, her hands around his neck, while Yi Feng held Gu Muxi’s waist…
