FSC [QT] Chapter 52.2

Obviously, He Zhan’s appearance today made Yu Lingli and Li Xi’s gossip burn on Jiang Baobei. When Jiang Baobei came back from buying water, they couldn’t wait to ask questions even before she could sit down.

“A boy just came to see you, but he recognized me as you.”

Qiu Wu explained to Jiang Baobei who looked puzzled.

“You mean he called my name right in your face?”

Jiang Baobei had heard of He Zhan’s name, but for her, who was reborn from the age of forty to sixteen, that was already a long-ago memory.

“I don’t know him, right?”

Jiang Baobei, who came back to her senses, replied doubtfully. Neither Qiu Wu, who was now sixteen years old, nor Jiang Baobei, who was sixteen years old, had anything to do with He Zhan.

She had all of Jiang Baobei’s memories and was certain that He Zhan did not exist in Jiang Baobei’s sixteen years of life.

Jiang Baobei vaguely felt that maybe He Zhan had not found the wrong person, otherwise, he would not have found Qiu Wu with a clear goal. The so-called wrong person was more like he had got Qiu Wu’s name wrong.

It was just that Jiang Baobei kept this guess in her heart and didn’t say it out loud.

After all, there were two gossip queens sitting behind her. If they heard this guess, there would be many versions of the rumor.

“Jiang Baobei, do you really not know He Zhan? But he called out your name himself.”

Yu Lingli and Li Xi were a little suspicious. Even if she didn’t know him, He Zhan came to their class to look for someone, so he must have some plans for Jiang Baobei.

“Oh, do I need to know all the seniors with poor grades?”

Jiang Baobei was very good at bluffing people when she had a straight face, especially the domineering aura she had accumulated from working hard for more than ten years to become a senior executive in her previous life.

Yu Lingli and Li Xi both shut up and did not dare to ask any more questions.

But Yu Lingli and Li Xi couldn’t help but murmur in their hearts, where did Jiang Baobei get the confidence to say that He Zhan’s grades were poor? Did she forget that she was at the bottom of this year’s high school class?

The two of them were just like the eldest brother laughing at the second brother.

Could it be that He Zhan came to Class 1-Grade 3 specifically to find Jiang Baobei just to meet the junior girl who was at the bottom of the class like him?

If they thought about it carefully, it might not be impossible. Maybe there was a special sympathy between the poor students, wasn’t there?

Of course, they only dared to think about this idea in their hearts, but they did not dare to say it in front of Jiang Baobei.

“Don’t worry. He Zhan is not as bad as the outside world reports. At most, his grades are a bit poor.”

Jiang Baobei comforted Qiu Wu in a very low voice. After listening to her words, Ah Wu’s eyes changed slightly.

It was obvious that Jiang Baobei said that she didn’t know He Zhan before, but the meaning of her words just now was that she knew He Zhan very well.

That unexplainable feeling of disobedience came to her heart again.

Qiu Wu thought of Jiang Baobei being kind to her for no reason and felt that there were more and more mysteries surrounding Jiang Baobei.

But Jiang Baobei thought even more.

She had not remembered the name He Zhan for more than ten years, but when she heard the name, the memory she once thought was very distant became extremely clear.

She could not forget that when she became the object of teasing and ridicule by the whole school because of a prank, only He Zhan, the boy who was rumored to often act as the school bully, dismissed it.

“Hey, it’s such a boring and childish game. Is the person who came up with this idea sure he’s not weaned?”

These were He Zhan’s exact words. That free and easy man had always been unscrupulous, so he could still point at Lin Lei’s nose and call him a scumbag.

This was what ‘Qiu Wu’ wanted to scold at that time.

But there was no doubt that if she was the one who said these words, her situation would be even more difficult during the three years of high school.

What’s more, ‘Qiu Wu’ at that time was not as strong as she was later. Her iron will was honed in those three years.

For her, He Zhan said what she wanted to say but didn’t dare to say, and to a certain extent, he breathed a sigh of relief for her.

This emotion was not mixed with any feelings between men and women.

For the former ‘Qiu Wu’, He Zhan was the person who gave her courage during that time, and he was the person she was grateful to. That’s all.

After being reborn, He Zhan actually had an intersection with ‘herself’ early on.

Jiang Baobei looked at her good-looking and beautiful self, and her mood was a little complicated, but she confirmed one thing.

The person in front of her was ‘herself’, but from the moment she was reborn in Jiang Baobei’s body, they were already independent individuals.

She could protect her and pamper her, but Qiu Wu’s future should not be controlled by her.
