So You're the Fucking Chen Fan?

Early the next morning, Chen Fan arrived at school brimming with determination.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he saw Su Ruochu sitting at her desk.

"Morning, class rep."

Chen Fan greeted her with a smile, but Su Ruochu blushed and quickly lowered her head.

Ah, my wife is wonderful in every way, except she's just too shy.

Even in his previous life, after they had officially started dating, Su Ruochu had still been a very shy, traditional girl.

Chen Fan remembered the first time he had finally managed to "lure" Su Ruochu into a hotel. His big mouth had gotten him into trouble when he suggested trying something new.

She had kicked him straight off the bed.

Then she hadn't let him touch her again for the rest of the night.

Comrades, these are lessons learned through blood and tears.

Chen Fan silently cautioned himself.

I have to learn from my mistakes and keep at it.

Wooing a girl takes work. I mustn't rush it.

Just then, Su Ruochu quietly handed him a shopping bag.

"What's this?"

Chen Fan opened it and found his school uniform inside.

He took it out for a look and immediately grinned.

"You even washed it for me?"

He quickly put it on, then took a deep sniff.

"Smells great. What brand of detergent did you use?"

"My wi... desk mate is so thoughtful and capable."

Su Ruochu turned away, her cheeks red.

"If you keep saying things like that, I'll ask the teacher to move my seat."

"Don't, don't..." Chen Fan quickly surrendered.

"I promise I won't say it again!"

For the rest of the morning, Su Ruochu found that Chen Fan really didn't "pester" her again.

Whether during class or between lessons, he kept leafing through his textbooks, occasionally scribbling things down with a pen.

He didn't even listen to the teacher lecturing at the front, completely absorbed in his own world.

Curious, Su Ruochu stole a glance and saw that he was marking various key points.

What is he doing?

Su Ruochu was puzzled.

Is he trying to start working hard now? Isn't it a little too late?

Finally, the third time she peeked, Chen Fan suddenly looked up and grinned at her.

Like a startled little rabbit, Su Ruochu hastily looked away, her heart pounding.

Chen Fan smiled and didn't bother her.

Instead, he lowered his head and went back to his books.

To be honest, he had been reborn without a system or any special cheat.

His only advantage was that he had taken the college entrance exam once before.

He had worked through every question on that exam.

Although many years had passed and he had forgotten most of them,

Chen Fan still had a vivid memory of some of the crucial major questions.

After all, those questions had put him through hell back then, and he hadn't managed to answer many of them during the exam.

For instance, Chen Fan clearly remembered that the last six worked-solution questions in math were worth seventy points.

He knew what the final three were-the ones that had left countless examinees tearing their hair out and crying in misery.

He knew which passage would appear in the reading comprehension section of this year's Chinese exam.

He knew that this year's Chinese essay prompt asked students to discuss different perspectives on problems in life and different ways of solving them, based on differing interpretations of four graphic symbols.

He knew this year's English reading comprehension passages and essay topic. He also knew the science exam...

With all that, combined with his current knowledge, he definitely had a chance of scoring 553 if he gave it everything he had.

When classes ended at noon, his best friend Guo Shuai sidled over.

"Chen Fan, want to eat out?"

Chen Fan shook his head. "You go ahead. I'll eat in the cafeteria."

"What's good about cafeteria food? I'll treat you to a proper meal outside."

Chen Fan promptly got to his feet.

"Let's go!"

"Damn! Could you be any more shameless?"

Chen Fan smiled. "You're loaded. Who else am I supposed to mooch off?"

Guo Shuai wasn't offended. Laughing, he slung an arm around Chen Fan's neck.

"Don't worry. I can afford to treat you every day until the entrance exam."

Chen Fan looked deeply moved. "Now that's a true brother. Could you just lend me twenty thousand instead?"

"Damn. Why don't you sell me for the money?"

The two left the classroom, laughing and chatting.

With the entrance exam fast approaching for the seniors, the school had noticeably eased its checks.

As long as students wore their student ID cards when leaving campus, the teachers generally turned a blind eye and let them through.

Business was booming at the restaurants across from the school gate. Arrive too late, and you might not even get a place in line.

Holding their plates, Chen Fan and Guo Shuai stared gloomily at the room packed with students.

"How about we get it to go and eat in the classroom?" Chen Fan suggested.

"No need. Look over there!"

Guo Shuai excitedly pulled Chen Fan through the crowd. From a distance, Chen Fan spotted Su Ruochu eating.

Guo Shuai approached with a grin.

"Well, fancy seeing you two beauties here. Mind if we share your table?"

Su Ruochu was eating with Li Na, a girl in their class she was close to. When she looked up and saw Chen Fan, she became visibly flustered.

Li Na asked with a smile, "Couldn't find a seat? Sit with us."

With that, she stood up, picked up her plate, and moved to sit beside Su Ruochu.

"Thanks, thanks."

Guo Shuai quickly pulled Chen Fan into a seat.

Chen Fan kept his head down and ate, while Li Na kept sneaking looks at him.

Eventually, Chen Fan couldn't take it anymore and looked up at her.

"Is there something on my face?"

"Hehe! Nope!"

Li Na stared at Chen Fan with a mischievous grin.

"Chen Fan, why did you kiss Su Ruochu yesterday?"

The moment she said that, Guo Shuai sprayed out the rice he had been eating.

Su Ruochu's little face turned bright red, and she hurriedly nudged her friend.

Chen Fan, however, remained perfectly composed.

"Well... it was actually a misunderstanding. I was having a nice dream. I was getting married."

That made Li Na laugh.

"So you mistook our dear class rep for your wife?"

Chen Fan stole a glance at Su Ruochu and quickly shook his head.

"You said that, not me."

Li Na pressed on. "Then tell me, do you like Su Ruochu?"

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fan nodded and admitted it.

His answer left Li Na stunned, while Su Ruochu stood up beside her, blushing.

"I'm done eating. I'll head back first."

"Hey, Ruochu, don't go! I'm not done asking yet."

Li Na called after her anxiously, then got up to follow.

Before leaving, she didn't forget to tease Chen Fan. "One jar of chocolates, and I'll tell you a secret about Su Ruochu."

"Remember, it has to be chocolate."

Watching Li Na run after her with a grin, Chen Fan shook his head.

Why would I need you to tell me my wife's secrets?

Seeing Guo Shuai still staring intently outside, Chen Fan couldn't help tapping the table.

"What are you looking at?"

Guo Shuai gave an embarrassed chuckle.

"Chen Fan, what do you think of Li Na's looks?"

Chen Fan froze.

"You like Li Na?"

I never would have guessed.

Why don't I remember Guo Shuai ever pursuing Li Na in my previous life?

Across from him, Guo Shuai chuckled a little sheepishly.

"Li Na isn't especially pretty, but don't you think she has a lovely smile?"

"Especially when she smiles-she really looks like my ex-girlfriend."

Chen Fan was surprised. "You have an ex-girlfriend?"

"Of course. My ex is Li Bingbing."

Damn!

I shouldn't have even asked.

Chen Fan lowered his head and went back to eating.

"You still haven't told me what you think of Li Na."

"Yeah, yeah, she's nice... I'm all for you pursuing her!"

Chen Fan mumbled around his food.

Guo Shuai was delighted.

"For saying that, today's meal is on me."

Chen Fan immediately raised his hand.

"Ma'am, two more chicken drumsticks!"

After lunch, Guo Shuai went to the restroom near the kitchen.

Chen Fan waited alone by the roadside, still racking his brain for the contents of the entrance exam.

Just then, several young men pushed open the restaurant's glass door and barged inside.

"Who knows Chen Fan from senior class seven?"

"Who's looking for me?"

Chen Fan called out, puzzled.

The young men immediately turned and came outside. One of them, sporting a wild afro, stared at Chen Fan with a sneer.

"So you're the fucking Chen Fan?"
