Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 9 brings us back to the senior year classroom.

The next day.

At 6 a.m., Ye Fan was jolted awake by his alarm clock.

Last night, Liu Ruyan and I chatted until midnight before going to sleep.

Although he had only slept for 6 hours, he felt refreshed and in great spirits.

I went to the washroom.

After quickly washing up, I looked at myself in the mirror and felt exceptionally handsome. My sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards towards my temples, and my starry eyes shone with a cold light like the moon reflected in a cold pool. The natural upward tilt of my eyes concealed a hint of youthful sharpness.

If someone of Ye Fan's age who doesn't know him sees him for the first time, they will feel a sense of pressure.

Of course, this is not Ye Fan boasting, but a true reflection of his appearance. He does indeed have outstanding looks, or as people would say in later generations, he is incredibly handsome!

This hairstyle looks a bit low-class. At this time, he had long hair with bangs that reached his eyebrows and a middle part, the same hairstyle as Chicken Bro, the intern who trained for two and a half years a few years later.

"I'll have to get a new hairstyle sometime!" he muttered to himself, then thought of Zhao Mingzhe's unique mushroom haircut, and he couldn't help but feel even more compelled to get one.

Ye Fan's outstanding looks are naturally due to the excellent genes he inherited from Ye Linzhang and Gu Ruoning. Back then, Ye Linzhang was a handsome young man in the surrounding area, and Gu Ruoning was, needless to say, a recognized campus beauty during her university days.

If not.

How could he maintain such a harmonious relationship with the beautiful girls in his class!

I strolled leisurely into the living room.

He skillfully pulled open the drawer under the coffee table.

Take out a ten-yuan note.

There's always some loose change in this drawer, just for Ye Fan to use for meals in case of emergencies. If Old Ye and his wife have something to do and don't come home in time, Ye Fan will take money from here to go out and eat, or he'll go to Zhao Mingzhe's house for a free meal, so he won't starve.

During school hours, he and Zhao Mingzhe would always eat breakfast outside.

----------------

6 points.

The two met at the alley entrance right on time.

I walked towards the school, less than two hundred meters.

There is a breakfast shop specializing in southern Fujian that has been open for over 20 years.

The aroma wafting through the air.

Ye Fan subconsciously swallowed. He was very familiar with this taste; he could smell it every day on his way to school. But he hadn't eaten it in so long and couldn't wait to try it.

The wontons at this shop are absolutely delicious, especially the sesame oil from Luxi that's drizzled on top at the end—it's simply unbeatable.

There were also fried dough sticks, fried to a golden brown and crispy perfection, just right, so delicious.

There are so many kinds of food, like xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), caitou guo (radish cake), and so on...

Ye Fan ordered a bowl of wontons and a piece of radish cake. He liked to eat wontons with radish cake.

Zhao Mingzhe prefers to eat wontons with fried dough sticks.

The two of them ate heartily, as if they were tasting these delicacies for the first time, or like children who had been hungry for a long time. Upon closer inspection, they also resembled two children far from home, reminiscing about the food from their hometown.

.................

6:45.

The two appeared in the classroom on time, five minutes before morning reading.

He and Zhao Mingzhe did not sit together.

Ye Fan's deskmate was a girl named Pei Yi'an. She got along very well with Ye Fan and his friends. She was a girl who could take a joke. She was 178 cm tall and sat at the very back of the table. She was incredibly beautiful.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, flowing smoothly like a black waterfall. Her face was dignified and beautiful, with delicate, natural eyebrows that complemented her eye shape. Her eyes were bright and expressive, with a slight upward tilt that added a touch of liveliness. Her long eyelashes seemed to curl naturally, making her gaze even clearer and more affectionate. Her eyes were like autumn water, and her every move exuded an outstanding temperament that was hard to conceal. She appeared extraordinary and charming.

"Good morning, Ye Zi," Pei Yi'an said, tidying up his desk.

"Yi'an! Good morning! I remember Lao Jiang is having a mock exam today, right?" he replied while holding his books.

"Yes! It's the last mock exam."

-----------------

Jiang Wenyuan served as Ye Fan's homeroom teacher for three years during Ye Fan's high school years. Despite being over forty-five years old, he was able to discern his students' interests and even had some knowledge of the animation field, making him a very approachable "neighborly homeroom teacher".

He was slightly plump, often wearing loose shirts and gold-rimmed glasses, with a warm smile always playing at the corners of his eyes behind the glasses. He had a harmonious relationship with his students and was well-liked by them, who often called him "Old Jiang".

During breaks, he could always be seen surrounded by students in the hallway, either discussing the latest anime series or teasing him about his increasingly noticeable belly.

This "Old Jiang," who always carries throat lozenges, can accurately remember each student's preferences. During the sports meet, he wore an XXL class uniform and awkwardly performed cheerleading. When the memes of his expressions, which were secretly taken by students, circulated in the class group, he straightened his glasses and said seriously, "Remember to Photoshop abs onto the teacher."

After evening self-study, you can often see him carrying a late-night snack, walking with students under a lot of pressure on the playground. His shadow under the moonlight is stretched round and warm by the streetlights.

-----------------

Old Jiang walked into the classroom carrying a large stack of test papers.

He habitually adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, took a close look at everyone in the classroom, and immediately spotted Ye Fan at the back. He felt that this kid had a different vibe today.

After morning reading.

Jiang Wenyuan said, "Everyone who needs to use the restroom, hurry up and go. Class monitor, distribute the test papers to everyone."

Class monitor Wang Hongtao went up to get the test papers and then started handing out curlers to each student.

When it came to Ye Fan's paper, he wanted to throw it on the ground, so he placed the paper directly on the edge of the table, and the paper slid down immediately.

Ye Fan reacted quickly, grabbing it and saying with a smile, "Class monitor, be careful."

He knew Wang Hongtao was doing it on purpose.

The reason is that Wang Hongtao likes Pei Yi'an, but Pei Yi'an doesn't pay much attention to him. Then, Pei Yi'an sits at the same table as Ye Fan and they have a very good relationship. So he always opposes Ye Fan, but it's all in secret. On the surface, he always pretends to be a good student.

"Oops! I'm so sorry, Ye Fan, I was so careless."

Wang Hongtao apologized and left immediately.

"Damn, it smells like green tea."

Ye Fan didn't care. In his previous life, he might have said a few sarcastic remarks, but now he was too lazy to argue with such people, and they would basically have no contact after graduation.

Wang Hongtao comes from a well-off family and has good grades. He should have no problem getting into a regular 985 university if he performed normally. However, his character and magnanimity determine what kind of person he is.

In life, you're bound to encounter some rotten apples.

The correct approach is to avoid it, not to step on it.

-----------------

"With only 25 days left until the college entrance examination, these 25 days will be the most crucial and important 25 days of your lives. The success or failure of the past twelve years of hard work will hinge on this one moment."

"I hope everyone can remain calm and focused, and give it their all in this final sprint."

"As the last complete mock test before the college entrance examination, I hope everyone can give it their all and be in top form so as to identify and make up for their shortcomings."

"If problems are identified at this point, there is still ample time to make adjustments. If you still cannot master the relevant knowledge on the day of the college entrance examination, then no one will give you a chance to make up for it."

"Let the exam begin!"

Ye Fan ignored Lao Jiang's words of wisdom and advice.

He took the exam paper, opened it, and took a look.

The questions inside were exactly the same as the ones I had done in my previous life. My memory was indeed complete and incredibly detailed. Even the mistakes I made after the test and the revisions to the correct answers were clearly visible in my mind.

The more carefully Ye Fan thought about it, the clearer his memory became.

In my previous life, I barely got into a 985 university, but it was one of the lower-ranked ones. My parents were so happy that they threw a big banquet in our hometown.

Based on this memory of being reborn, becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination would be a piece of cake.

If I get into Tsinghua or Peking University in this life, my parents will probably be so happy they'll throw a huge banquet.

However, his goal was not Tsinghua or Peking University, but Nanjing University in Jinling.

But that's a story for another time.

..........

Ye Fan began to write furiously.

He immediately searched his mind for the correct answer, revised from his previous life, and wrote it directly on the answer sheet.

It was finished in less than half an hour.
