When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

Chapter 3



Getting Close to You, You Want Me to Focus on Learning?

“Luo Feng, do you want to die!?” Cursed the student in front of him.

Luo Feng was still in shock. He hugged his knees and stared at the boy in the front row with his eyes wide open. This person’s appearance was too unique. The top of his head was like a cruel competitive circle, and every strand of hair had its own territory. They didn’t disturb each other, and when they gathered together, it was the most fashionable afro style in that era.

Luo Feng always relied on this person’s hair to sneak a nap when he was in school.

“Lei Jin, you’re not bald yet?” Luo Feng was overjoyed. This lush head would turn into “adult-mode” in a few years’ time after all.

Lei Jin, the afro boy, rolled his eyes at Luo Feng and said angrily, “Have you gone silly from sleeping? What nonsense are you talking about!”

Luo Feng wanted to reply, but he heard an impatient roar from the podium.

“Why are the students at the back arguing? I can hear your voices from the podium! Why don’t you come up and talk?” The form teacher, Yu Pingrong, waved her pointer, the bamboo stick, which made a whooshing sound in the air.

She was short, but her voice was loud. She was very strict with her students usually. The students went silent with the deterrence of the pointer.

Lei Jin rolled his eyes at Luo Feng and turned around.

Just as everyone thought that class was about to continue, Teacher Yu added. “Lei Jin, why haven’t you cut your hair? Get your mother here tomorrow!”

The audience immediately burst into suppressed laughter. Lei Jin buried his head and cursed Luo Feng 10,000 times in his heart.

Luo Feng laughed as well. He raised his head and looked around at the familiar environment.

The dark green curtains, the familiar blue school uniform, and the crew cuts and ponytails were both novel and nostalgic.

Luo Feng’s aching knee kept reminding him that everything was real!

He was reborn!

He was reborn in his high school days!

His deskmate did not laugh along with the rest of the class. She was staring at the blackboard with a pen in her hand.

Ai Tingya was in a very difficult situation when she was a student. Her washed-out school uniform was an inheritance from her previous senior. Her head was curled up at the back of her neck in a daze. She had always shrank into herself due to her inferiority complex.

Her entire body was screaming the word ‘unremarkable’. It was really unimaginable that she would be an elite in the business world in the future.

What was even more unbelievable to Luo Feng was that the person who would accompany him to the end of his life would be Ai Tingya. He could only blame himself for having poor judgment when he was young and mistook the scumbag girl for a treasure. He had to seize this opportunity after being reborn!

He supported his chin with his hand and sized up Ai Tingya brazenly.

Right at this moment, Luo Feng felt his vision blur.

He raised his hand to rub his eyes and realized that there was a floating golden symbol above Ai Tingya’s head.

He then turned towards the other students. There was actually a string of percentage numbers above their heads. From one to dozens, they looked like random numbers.

Luo Feng looked at these numbers in confusion, not understanding what they meant. Was it referring to luck or lifespan?

When he looked at Ai Tingya again, there was no number above her head, but an endless symbol!

If the numbers represent lifespan, would it mean that Ai Tingya would live until the end of time? Luo Feng shook his head and rejected this idea.

He recalled the last moments of his previous life. He was asked what he would wish for if he could live another life. Luo Feng said he wanted a pair of discerning eyes, therefore this string of numbers he saw must have some special meaning, so he had to slowly explore it.

“Why do you keep looking at me?”

Ai Tingya asked timidly just at that moment.

She tilted her head slightly, not daring to look directly at Luo Feng. She took a quick glance before retracting her gaze like a little rabbit. Her entire body felt uncomfortable sensing his gaze. It was as if there were burrs on her butt, as if she could shake off Luo Feng’s gaze just by moving.

She looked very pitiful when she cowered.

Luo Feng noticed the pen in her hand.

He remembered that he had accidentally kicked the cap of this pen away. The reason why it left such a deep impression on him was because he saw Ai Tingya squatting in the aisle and searching for it below the seats after school.

Ai Tingya was born in an orphanage. She had no parents, so she felt that even buying a pen was a burden to the orphanage. Luo Feng, who had a happy family, might not be able to understand the feeling of grieving overnight for a pen cap.

More importantly, Luo Feng felt that Ai Tingya was making a mountain out of a molehill, so he didn’t think much of it and went home at that point in time.

Luo Feng’s heart ached thinking of this. He took out a new pen from the drawer and pushed it to Ai Tingya: “Sorry I lost your pen cap, this is for you.”

Ai Tingya looked at him in surprise and then at the pen on the table. She only said. “Pay attention to the class.” Then, she buried her head in her notebook.

Luo Feng knew that she wasn’t a greedy person. Ai Tingya wouldn’t accept a pen for a pen cap, so he simply took Ai Tingya’s pen and threw the new pen to her.

“The ink of your pen looks like it can run more smoothly, let’s exchange pens.” He said forcefully.

Ai Tingya didn’t dare to snatch it back since she was in class. She stole a glance at Luo Feng, pursed her lips, and unscrewed the cap of her pen. She continued to pretend that she didn’t care and take notes, but her tightly pursed lips betrayed the nervousness in her heart.

How could Luo Feng not understand Ai Tingya’s personality after being deskmates for two years? She would definitely change them back after class given her strong self-esteem.

Luo Feng wanted to be nice to her, but he was afraid of scaring her. He rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea.

“Ai Tingya, the semester exams are nearly here. Can you tutor me?” Luo Feng leaned nearer to Ai Tingya and whispered to her.

Ai Tingya subconsciously dodged. She covered her ears that were hot from the whisper and repeated. “Focus on the class!”

What a model student.

Luo Feng sighed in his heart. He might be the first guy to be so close to Ai Tingya. Her face was as red as the red clouds in the sky, but she could still force herself to focus on the blackboard.

No wonder her future was promising. This might be the difference between a top student and a bad student.

Actually, Luo Feng himself wasn’t a bad student.

His grades were above average even though they weren’t top notch. His form teacher’s evaluation of him was: “Smart, but he doesn’t put in the effort.” Moreover, he was considered a mischievous type who could easily lead other students astray because he was unrestrained and loved freedom.

Hence, he took the last few rows with a group of bad students and became neighbors with the trash can.

Ai Tingya was in the last few rows because she requested it. She felt that she would feel the gaze of others if she sat in the front row, so she sat at the back.

Luo Feng knew that he couldn’t strike up a conversation during class, so he could only wait for the bell to ring.

Luo Feng made up his mind. He must be responsible for Ai Tingya and not let her suffer anymore because of how she cared for him in his previous life, as well as her deep-rooted feelings for him!

...

Moreover, even though he didn’t know what the string of mysterious numbers visible to him represented for the time being, they definitely had some special guidance. Luo Feng would definitely seize this opportunity! He would pull Ai Tingya along to the peak of her life!
