2 Title is hard so I just say : Return before the Exam

I rushed toward the hoard of monsters, trying to kill some of them but...

How unfortunate, before I can even kill one, I immediately got smashed to the ground by the monsters. Fortunately, the pain only lasts a second, after that it's like falling into a soft cotton bed.

I died...

"Brother!", Haha... I actually can hear my little sister's voice before I died. Is she waiting for me up there? are mom and dad with her too?. Well, don't worry, brother's coming...

Or so I thought.

"Brother, Wake Up! We're gonna be late!", Wake up? Late? what...

Realizing something's wrong I felt my eyes slowly open. In front of me was the same girl I dreamt about every night.

Cute white face, Long black hair tied into a ponytail by a black hairpin, Watery clear eyes, and soft-looking pink lips. She's wearing a blue and white uniform and a blue skirt, Long white-colored socks, and pink shoes. All that plus her pouting face right now hit a 100/100 score immediately.

"Hmph, I woke you up for so long! don't blame me if you're late for your college entrance exam! Stupid brother", Said the girl still pouting.

... I froze for a second, and unconsciously came forward and hug her.

This softness, this warmth, is it... is it real?.

The girl was surprised by the sudden hug, "Wawawawa what are you doing, brother?".

"...I'm not dreaming... right?", I don't know why I asked this but the girl's words immediately broke my last line of defense.

"Ngghh it's not a dream okay! now release me!", the girl said that but she didn't struggle at all.

Tears immediately fell from my eyes, wetting the girl's clothes. "Good, good it's not a dream...".

The girl seems to freeze when she felt her clothes wet, and then replaced by panic, "B-brother are you okay? did you have a nightmare? if you don't feel well I'll tell mom".

I released her and shook my head, "No need, it's just a bad nightmare, I'll get over it soon".

"Are you sure?", The girl still looked at me with worry.

"Yeah, go down first, I'll catch up in a while", I pat her head and said.

"Then be quick, mom has made breakfast, don't linger for too long otherwise the food gonna get cold", The girl nodded and then left my room.

...

I stood up from my bed and went to the bathroom. I took off my clothes and looked at myself in the mirror. Just to be sure, I punched myself in the mirror. Feeling the pain, I laughed quite hysterically.

"I really returned, and it was before the college exam as well", Hah~ I stopped laughing and washed my tear-stained face, when I'm done, the guy in the mirror immediately looked different. There's no more childishness in those eyes and it was replaced by maturity way beyond the age of the skin.

That mature-looking blue eyes immediately perfected the appearance on the mirror, his sword-shaped eyebrows, and his knife-shaped face picturing the suaveness of a man. His black hair was always messy but it didn't reduce his appearance at all. Instead, it adds the feeling of a lazy but dashing man.

He's not buffed but not thin either, even so, he still had a natural 4 pack from the morning routine he always does.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I smiled. I'm really handsome!.

After admiring myself for a few minutes, I went to bathe.

...

...

After he's done bathing. Ye Feng opened his wardrobe and took out his black and blue school uniform.

When he's done wearing them, he doesn't immediately go down but stopped and thinks of a starting plan. If he wanted to play the game, he would need a gaming helmet and it would cost around 400$ to buy 1.

His family was not poor, but the money they had are not enough to buy a set of virtual gaming helmets without at least being hungry for a few days. There's no way he's gonna do this to them.

Then he remembers something. The government gives out scholarships of 500$ for the 1st rank of the college entrance examination.

In his last life, Ye Feng was ranked 21 in the country. Just so you know he had a target university at that time but they only accept rank 1-20 students. He was so close at that time and becomes so frustrated that he learn all the college entrance examination answers.

Luckily, he still remembers al- well not all actually, just some. He just hope he can have some knowledge of it when he saw the questions.

Hah~ I'll reread those questions later.

Ye Feng slapped both of his cheeks with his palm and then went downstairs.

...

Downstair, his father, mother, and little sister were already waiting at the table. Seeing them again, his eyes felt unconsciously cloudy.

"Brother already came down, can I eat now?", The little girl look bright and asked the woman on the table. This is Ye Feng's little sister, she's called Ye Qiqi, Younger by just a year. She was not his blood sister but was adopted one day. At that time Ye Feng was still a few years old when he found her and told his parents.

She was so cute and frail when Ye Feng's parents see her. Since they didn't have any daughter and Ye Feng's mother always wanted to have a girl, coupled with her cute looks they decided to adopt her. A few years later, they still don't have another child so they felt that adopting her was the best choice they had ever done and started loving her more.

"Well, wait until he sits down and let's pray", This is Ye Feng's mother, she's called Su Ran. She's already in her late 30s but she still had white and flawless skin, even her age does not erase her beauty. Her slight smile without showing her teeth radiated the beauty and matureness of her age. Her slightly brown hair flowed until it reached her waist and more, her bright blue eyes showing gentleness to all she sees. She's a very religious person and Ye Feng's father was attracted by her consistency even though he's not a religious person.

After Ye Feng sat down, the Mature looking man on the other side nodded and started the prayer, "Let's all thank god that has protected us till this day and let us feast on this delicious food", This is Ye Feng's father, Ye Zhao. He was not a religious person at first, but after he married Su Ran, he proved his determination by entering the religion she was in. Just like Su Ran, his age doesn't reduce his appearance by any bit. Instead, his mature-looking and gentle face gave a sense of a gentleman. His straight sword-shaped eyebrow was a little raised and his black eyes were always steady. Contrary to Ye Feng's messy hair, Ye Zhao's hair was very tidy. Ye Feng really inherited most of his appearance.

"Yay!", Immediately after the prayer was done, Ye Qiqi immediately charged the plate of meatballs on the table with her fork.

"Don't be too hasty, no one will take it", Su Ran gently reprimand her.

"Oh...", Hearing that Ye Qiqi slowed her hand.

Looking at the familiar scene, Ye Feng's eyes became cloudy again and unknowingly tears fell without him knowing. Ye Jian saw this and asked with care, "Son, is there something wrong?", his son was always a strong kid, he rarely sees him cry. Even when he was small, when he was hurt he didn't cry at all, instead, he laughed.

Su Ran and Ye Qiqi also looked at him with concern.

"Brother, are you really okay?".

"Qiqi said you have a nightmare, is the nightmare really bad?".

Ye Feng realizes just now, he hurriedly wipes his tears with his sleeve and laughed, "Haha, don't worry, what nightmare could make me cry? a little chili jam just splashed to my eyes just now so tears fall haha...".

Seeing they still didn't believe it, he raised his hand and showed his little arm muscle, "If you don't believe it here, even nightmare will run away from me".

Seeing he didn't want to tell them, they can't do anything.

Ye Qiqi even said, "Maybe he's so scared of the college entrance exam that he had nightmares that he doesn't know anything when the exam started".

Hearing that all of them laughed. Su Ran shook her head with a slight smile, "This kid...".

Seeing the gloomy atmosphere disappear and be replaced back by the warm atmosphere Ye Feng smiled widely.

Ye Qiqi let out the tip of her pink tongue in a cheeky manner.

...

After the family finished their breakfast, they left the house in a car and went to the Penguin Highschool, it was the school Ye Feng and Ye Qiqi were in. Ye Feng entered the school before Ye Qiqi but Ye Qiqi was too smart that they decided to let her hop-year. So now they are in the same year and same class. Ah, just so you know, Ye Qiqi was ranked 13 in the country in Ye Feng's previous life, but she decided to follow her brother's university.

After they arrived, they both got down from the car and waved goodbye to their parents.

"Good luck, don't worry if you failed, we won't blame you", Su Ran smiled and said. Ye Feng knows that this was for him. So he said, "Don't worry mother, my goal is number 1". I know you won't blame me, but I'll blame myself.

Hearing that Father Ye laughed, "That's my boy, go, go now and bring home that number 1 rank". Even though he looks like a gentleman, Father Ye still acts a little unrestrained.

After their parents left, Ye Feng and Ye Qiqi followed the class and seat that was assigned to their Student ID.

Coincidentally, they are in the same class and seated beside each other as well.

"Hehe, brother we are a neighbor", Ye Qiqi waved at him and Ye Feng chuckled.

When the decided hour arrived, the door to the classroom was opened and two teachers brought two stacks of papers, it was the exam paper. After the exam paper was given Ye Feng sighed in relief. Luckily it's no different from the one in his last life.

The first exam was Language. The time limit to do it was an hour.

After 10 minutes, Ye Feng was already done and since there's nothing to do, he slept on the table. Who knows Ye Qiqi would misunderstand him and signaled him with a small, "psst", wanting to probably give answers.

Ye Feng want to say no need but the Inspector saw their movement and came to their seat.

"What are you doing?".

The inspector took both of their exam sheets and examine them. The inspector founds out that both of them are already finished. It was just 10 minutes passed and they both already finished?. 8 minutes is impossible to write the long answer that fast so they should just finish answering so copying must be impossible. Besides, the two paper has their own distinctive way of thinking about the problem that was given.

One of them was full of youth life and the beauty of the world while the other was full of human emotion and the maturity of seeing the world.

The inspector raised his eyebrow and looked at both of them. He very much likes the latter writing and had an urge to take the writer to the university he was teaching.

Since there's no problem, the inspector returned their paper and remind them not to interact with each other. As you might guess, the former was written by Ye Qiqi and the latter was written by Ye Feng.

1 Hour passed and the Exam sheets were taken. They are given 30 minutes of rest before the next one.

Both Ye Qiqi and Ye Feng stayed in the class while others went somewhere else.

Ye Qiqi asked Ye Feng, "Brother, why did the Inspector didn't say anything to you when he found us?".

Ye Feng looked at her helplessly, "You know it's bad but you do it anyway. Well, that's because I'm already finished".

Ye Qiqi seems surprised when he told her, "Brother, I don't know you're so smart!".

"... You little, you think your brother is stupid?", Ye Feng gave her a knuckle to the head.

"Owie, I'm just saying...", Ye Qiqi holds her head and pouted.

30 minutes passed and the next exam started. This time it was math and although Ye Feng had a little difficulty, in the end, he's finished in 30 minutes.

The next one was Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. All which he solved in 20, 30, and 33 minutes respectively. Luckily all of them were no different from the one in his last life so he solved them all easily, except for physics that he had a little difficulty with. Now, they just need to wait for the result.

After the exam, they went to the gate and for their parents to come.

While waiting, there was this guy that went in front of them with a bouquet of flowers and said to Ye Qiqi, "I like you, please be my girlfriend". The guy was pretty handsome with blond hair and green eyes. For some reason, Ye Feng was annoyed but didn't do anything. Whatever she chooses he will follow it.

This proposal attracted the students and the people around them. Some even shouted, "Accept, accept". Unfortunately for them Ye Qiqi shook her head and said, "Sorry, I already have someone I like".

Hearing that, the boy doesn't seem to give up, "The guy you like didn't appreciate you right? Why don't you forget about him?".

Seeing him forcing it Ye Feng stood in front of Ye Qiqi and coldly said, "She refuses you, don't force it".

Seeing Ye Feng's scary eyes the guy was a little scared but stood his ground. That was until Ye Qiqi said, "No, actually he treats me very well".

Huh? I didn't know Qiqi had a boyfriend. Ye Feng thought and turned looked at her in confusion but he found that she looked at him with a smile as well and he can very much see his reflection in her eyes.

The guy that was rejected felt a little angry after getting rejected and throw the bouquet of flowers to the ground and left.

At the same time, their parent's car arrived and they went home.
