Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

When they reached the bar where the little get-together was organised, the majority of the classmates were already there. They saw Wang Yuxi as soon as they entered.

“Hello, best friend, “Wang Yuxi grinned as he saw Lu Xuan and hugged holding his drink in one hand.

“Captain Wang, don’t you have duties to discharge?” Lu Xuan raised his brow.

“Damn man, when you call me Captain Wang, my heart beats loudly and dramatically, “Wang Yuxi winked at Lu Xuan and the latter made a bad face.

“You still talk nonsense, “Gu Shangyan commented.

“Oh, isn’t it Genius Gu?” Wang Yuxi laughed. “The star of the Jingyuan High Class A.”

“Well, that was Han Nanxian but I will take the gesture behind the compliment, “Gu Shangyan said, fist-bumping with him.

“You still don’t like to take compliments, do you?” Wang Yuxi asked.

Gu Shangyan merely shrugged.

“Hello, man, “Lu Mingze aka Idol Mochi appeared and shook hands with Gu Shangyan. “Where is your sister?”

Wang Yuxi and Gu Shangyan raised their brows as they saw Lu Xuan and Lu Mingze behaving as if they hadn’t seen each other.

“She went to make a call, “Gu Shangyan said and Lu Mingze looked disheartened.

“I wonder how you got promoted, “Lu Xuan snickered. “I thought Han Zixin is usurping all your promotions and merits.”

Wang Yuxi looked proud as he said, “There can only be one Captain in a team and that’s me. The brave and great Captain Wang.”

The other three men rolled their eyes.

“Don’t tell me he got promoted again, “Lu Mingze commented and Wang Yuxi looked as if someone had made him swallow a lemon.

Lu Mingze burst into laughter. “Han Zixin seriously got promoted again? What is he now?”

“Deputy Chief of Police, “Wang Yuxi mumbled.

“At twenty-five?” Gu Shangyan’s eyes widened. “He is impressive.”

“Stop praising him or my sister will join the bandwagon. What else? She didn’t stop even breathing when she began complimenting him, “Lu Xuan said.

“Are you jealous?” Wang Yuxi grinned.

Lu Xuan gave him a look. “Why would I be?”

Wang Yuxi and Gu Shangyan began making talk and another old high school classmate joined them.

Lu Mingze’s gaze fell on a face in the crowd and he moved to approach her but before he could reach her, Lu Xuan stood in his way.

“If you don’t want me to break your pretty face, back off, “Lu Xuan said in a dangerously calm tone.

“What else do you know apart from breaking bones?” Lu Mingze cocked his brow and sarcastically asked. He was not someone who was scared of Lu Xuan.

“Breaking bones is better than breaking hearts, “replied Lu Xuan. “At least broken bones can be put together but broken hearts?”

“Don’t you think you are overstepping your boundaries?” Lu Mingze questioned. “She is my girlfriend. I have every right to talk to her.”

“Ex-girlfriend, “Lu Xuan corrected him. “You and Shen Yue broke up a long time ago. If you don’t recall, let me remind you, she is the same girl you left for your so-called dreams all alone in a foreign country. She was scared and alone in that country because of your stupidity when you were touring the world with your band. You and her ended a long time ago. Now don’t harass her.”

“Look, we will be fine if you stop interfering between the two of us, “Lu Mingze said. “You and your sister have been filling her ear with venom against me.”

“Oh god, he is still stuck on that line?” An Xiulan groaned as she appeared. Looking at Lu Mingze she said, “Hi, Idol. Long time no see. This was not how I thought we would meet again.”

Lu Mingze heaved out a sigh. “Xiulan, for old times sake…can you ask her to at least hear me once?”

“I’m not falling for the same trick, “An Xiulan said with a smile. “You said this last time too and my friend wasn’t herself for a week. You know what, Idol? People break up all the time. It’s not the end of the world. If one can fall in love, they can fall out of love too. Is it too much to accept your mistake and move on? She is trying to move on and shouldn’t you let her? She said it’s best for her if you don’t harass her each time she sees you or she will be forced to leave the friend circle.”

Lu Mingze looked at them sadly and nodded his head, before leaving. When he left, An Xiulan looked at her brother and said, “You both are close friends. You shouldn’t have ruined your friendship with him.”

“When his dumbass broke up with her, he accused her of cheating on him with me. I broke his nose and jaw, “Lu Xuan said with a snort. “He ruined the friendship when I was just checking up on Shen Yue for you.”

“I wonder where the sweet Lu Mingze got lost, “An Xiulan sighed.

“Do you know what’s going on between Shangyan and Shen Yue?” Lu Xuan asked.

“I don’t, “An Xiulan said. “What’s going on between the two of them? Yoona thinks they are dating. She is talking nonsense, right?”

“They are not dating for sure, “Lu Xuan said. “I’m just afraid that they will come emotionally close and get themselves in a complicated position. Emotional vulnerability does a lot of bad things to people. Shen Yue is recovering from her bad breakup with Mingze and Shangyan is trying to forget his decade-old relationship.”

“There is no hope for Yoona and Yan Ge?” An Xiulan asked him.

“What do you think?” Lu Xuan asked her.

“I don’t know, “An Xiulan said. “They make me afraid to fall in love.”

“They really do, “Lu Xuan said in a soft voice. “But don’t worry, we will figure it out.”

“How?” An Xiulan asked him.

“I don’t know, “Lu Xuan answered. “For the first few times, we will fuck up. Break everyone’s heart. Blame the world. Then, blame ourselves. Maybe then we will reach the right path, learn what we need to and let go of this fear inside our heart.”
