NOVEL WEB Chapter 17 - The Match Begins
Chapter 17 : The Match Begins
After a calm reflection of over ten minutes, Ye Feng was certain that he had been reborn. Glancing through the window at his classmates, Ye Feng unexpectedly noticed that Yan Huan and Feng Yifei were already flirting with each other.
“This pair of b*tches, they claimed to have no connection until after graduating from university, but they are already together while in high school. I’ll deal with this pair sooner or later.”
Ye Feng shifted his gaze to Xia Shiyu, his eyes filled with tenderness. Xia Shiyu attentively listened to Wang Yi’s lecture, occasionally taking notes. Observing as a bystander, Ye Feng noticed Xia Shiyu occasionally looking toward Su Lin causing his eyebrows to furrow.
“Why is Xiaoyu looking at Su Lin? That guy is not a good person. Maybe it’s also just a coincidence that Lin Xiaowan is next to Su Lin.”
“This should be the time when Uncle Xia is in the hospital. No, I have to find a way to help him. I was really crazy in my previous life. How could I put all my energy into Yan Huan and leave a lifelong regret?”
“Fortunately, I’ve been reborn. I can make up for the regrets of the last life. Xia Shiyu, this life, I won’t let you face difficulties alone.”
“I need to find a way to make money. Uncle Xia’s illness can’t be delayed. Missing the best time means waiting for death.” Ye Feng quickly noticed the time on the blackboard.
97 days until the college entrance exam.
“Today is March 3, 2002. This… Isn’t today the day the school donated money to Xiaoyu?”
“Lottery? Scratch cards won’t do. Writing novels? No, it’s too slow. Selling internet cafe permits? Where can I get an internet cafe permit? Internet cafe… games… games!”
A glint flashed in Ye Feng’s eyes as he thought of a quick way to make money. However, this method required money, and not just a couple of thousand yuan. It needed at least more than fifty thousand yuan. Where could he get that much money?
“To help Uncle Xia, I can only borrow money from Xiaoyu for now. Later, when I earn money, I’ll help her with the medical expenses.”
“At this time, Xiaoyu shouldn’t be completely disappointed in me. It shouldn’t be a problem to borrow from her, right?” Ye Feng looked uncertainly at Xia Shiyu’s delicate face, but unfortunately, Xia Shiyu hadn’t glanced at him from start to finish.
Ye Feng felt an ache in his heart, speculating that Xia Shiyu might be disappointed in him by now. “No, I can’t let this go on. I have to help, let’s just borrow fifty thousand.”
“In the past life, the ‘Fate Necklace’ rose to over six thousand per piece. It happened after the monthly exams, yes, Xu Jie personally told me that. We used to go to the internet cafe together every day. He kept talking about it until the end of the college entrance exam.”
The [Necklace of Fate] bug had spread far and wide in his previous life so there was definitely no mistake about it.
Su Lin looked at Ye Feng, who was muttering non-stop, and his eyes flashed. ‘I’ve already dug a hole for you, just waiting for you to jump in, Ye Feng.’
Ring~!!
As the bell rang, Wang Yi didn’t delay the class and directly dismissed it. He walked out of the classroom with the teaching materials and saw Ye Feng standing in the corridor.
Initially intending to give Ye Feng some advice, he ended up just snorting. In his view, someone like Ye Feng was beyond redemption; reminding him was just a waste of time. It was better not to see and not to bother.
Then he remembered the hospital visit. “Ye Feng, go to the hospital with Shiyu later. You’re not allowed to go to the internet cafe, okay?”
Ye Feng nodded, followed by another wave of self-blame. Last life, he and Xia Shiyu went to the hospital together but slipped away halfway to play CF in the internet cafe. Now he regretted it and wanted to give himself a slap.
Only when Wang Yi descended the stairs and disappeared completely did Ye Feng enter the classroom.
“Brother Feng, let’s go play games together at noon?”
Ye Feng recognized that it was his good friend Xu Jie. He shook his head. “I have something to do at noon, so I won’t be playing games. You can go alone.”
“Didn’t we agree, Brother Feng? [City of Angels] is going to have a new world boss. We have to prepare in advance.”
Ye Feng waved his hand, “After school, let’s go together.”
“Great!” Xu Jie saw that Ye Feng agreed and ran away happily.
As Ye Feng was about to find Xia Shiyu, he was surprised to see Xia Shiyu sitting next to Su Lin, and Su Lin was rummaging through his backpack.
Su Lin searched through his backpack, then looked embarrassedly at Xia Shiyu, chuckling nervously, “Shiyu, sorry, I think I forgot to bring your notes from home.”
Shiyu looked at Su Lin’s awkward and impolite smile and thought it was very cute. “Pfff~!! Ahahaha…”
“…”
“Shiyu, I didn’t mean to. I was in a hurry to bring it this morning, but… how about I go home during lunch and bring the notes to you?” Su Lin looked at Shiyu carefully.
Xia Shiyu shook her head, “No need, it’s just a notebook. If it’s useful to you, keep it.”
Su Lin was surprised, “Keep it with me? What about you? Don’t you need to study English too?”
Xia Shiyu confidently smiled, “Review English? Su Lin, have you forgotten my English scores?”
Only then did Su Lin remember that Xia Shiyu had excellent English scores, consistently scoring above 145 every time. Unlike Su Lin, whose weak subject was English, Xia Shiyu’s weak subject was math. As for Lin Xiaowan… She had no weak subjects.
“When did Shiyu get so close to Su Lin?”
“I didn’t expect that I was the only one in the class who didn’t know anything in high school. Su Lin actually already tried to pursue Shiyu in high school, but he didn’t succeed in the previous life. I’m such an idiot.”
Ye Feng felt that even though Su Lin didn’t succeed in the end, he still had to stop him. He felt that Su Lin didn’t have good intentions getting close to Shiyu.
“Shiyu… What notebook? Can you show it to me?” Ye Feng’s face was filled with what he thought was a very kind smile.
Shiyu looked at Ye Feng and frowned. “Feng, your English score is always 20 to 30 points. Even if I show it to you, you won’t understand.”
Su Lin suddenly laughed. “Hahaha! Interestingly, I didn’t expect the last place in our class to be so determined. ”
Ye Feng frowned. “As long as you want to study, it’s never too late. Su Lin, do you think it’s funny that I want to study? ”
Su Lin: “…”
