Chapter 2: In the past life, I pursued Qingxue and was also a "licking dog"?

When Qi Yun said goodbye to Lian Qingxue in his previous life, he was already in the intensive care unit of a hospital.

After high school, he never saw Lian Qingxue again. But she came to the hospital on her own initiative.

The atmosphere in the hospital was already bad. His ward was full of critically ill patients, and there were people dying and crying from time to time. Most of the patients were silent and their family members had sad faces.

Living inside made people feel gloomy.

But when Lian Qingxue walked in, for a moment, the entire ward seemed to be illuminated.

With her exquisite appearance and powerful aura, if it weren't for her self-introduction, Qi Yun would never have thought that she was his female classmate from that corner.

She came specifically to visit him after hearing about his illness.

Although their identities had changed greatly since they last met each other long ago,

the two chatted happily together as if no time had passed at all.

Lian Qingxue only came to see an old classmate,

but Qi Yun was someone who would soon die; what did he care about identity?

When Lian Qingxue left, Qi Yun asked her: "Why weren't we close during high school? Why did you come here just for me?"

"You may not remember," replied Lian Qingxue with a smile. "But back then you always brought me eggs."

"Eggs?" Qi Yun suddenly realized something. "You mean I copied your homework in exchange for eggs?"

"That egg might not be important to you," said Lian Qingxue with a smile. "But at that time it was the best thing I could eat."

Qi Yun really didn't remember anymore.

During high school he liked playing around and often couldn't finish his homework so he found someone else's work to copy off of early in the morning.

Sometimes he would ask Lian Qingxue to copy her work. But since they weren't very familiar with each other, it wasn't appropriate to just copy without giving something in return. So he exchanged the eggs that he brought from home for her homework.

The eggs were just boiled white eggs and he didn't like them much, so giving them to Lian Qingxue didn't bother him.

Who could have thought that Lian Qingxue would remember this after ten years?

Lian Qingxue seemed to have come only to see an old classmate, but when she left, she had put a lot of money into Qi Yun's hospital account.

Qi Yun wanted to pay her back but never got the chance before his death.

...

In his mind, he kept thinking about the matter with Qingxue. Qi Yun and Wang Shang walked to the school gate.

The students of No.1 High School supported half of the snack street, and food trucks were parked on both sides of the street one after another.

There were many students queuing in front of each stall, and the air was filled with the fragrance of food.

Qi Yun was immediately attracted. As he grew up, he always felt that these snacks had a special taste that he had never tasted before.

The two ran to buy two pancakes at a pancake stall. Wang Shang ate them hungrily while Qi Yun turned around and came to a noodle stall: "Give me a bowl of beef noodles."

"You eat so much?" Wang Shang exclaimed.

"I'm bringing it for someone."

"Bringing it? Oh, you're bringing something for Zhang Mengyao again? Let me tell you, why don't you confess your feelings?"

"...Who is Zhang Mengyao?"

After some confusion, Qi Yun finally figured out who this Zhang Mengyao was - his crush from high school!

What's even more ridiculous is that although she was younger than him, she already knew some green tea tactics by herself.

In his past life after high school ended, Qi Yun once confessed his feelings to her.

Zhang Mengyao's response was very simple: "I treat you like my brother."

Brother my ass!

Damn it!

So I used to be a lickspittle too?

...

Qi Yun returned to the classroom.

Zhang Mengyao was chatting with her best friend in their seats. Her family was considered wealthy, and she had already started dressing up in high school.

The school did not allow jewelry such as earrings or necklaces, so she wore a butterfly-like hair accessory on top of her head, with slightly curled ends.

She immediately stood out from the others.

Not only Qi Yun, but many boys in the class liked her too. Some even secretly called her the "class flower".

When Zhang Mengyao saw the beef noodles in Qi Yun's hand, her friend quietly laughed and said,

"Mengyao, Qi Yun bought you dinner again!"

"Pfft! Who cares?" Zhang Mengyao rolled her eyes.

"Qi Yun is pretty good though. He treats you well and he's handsome too. If he confesses to you, would you say yes?"

"He doesn't have good grades and his family isn't that great either. I'd be stupid to say yes!"

Zhang Mengyao watched as Qi Yun walked towards them from outside the door holding a bowl of noodles - it was for her after all!

She smiled sweetly and reached out to take it from him but he dodged away...

Both of them watched as Qi Yun walked towards the back of the classroom and placed the beef noodles on Lian Qingxue's desk.

Qi Yun looked at Zhang Mengyao speechlessly - she almost ruined his plan!

This was his first investment!

Investment target: Lian Qingxue!

"Lian Qingxue, I bought beef noodles for you!"

Across from him sat a girl who looked up at him blankly with bright eyes filled with confusion.
