Back To 20s: School Belle Is Mine

Gu Muxi leaned on the desk, turning her head to look out the window, at the window of the opposite house.

Yi Feng's room window was tightly closed, the curtains drawn.

"Stinky Yi Feng, hasn't he come back yet?"

Gu Muxi muttered.

Then, she got up to grab the clothes prop and poked Yi Feng's room window with it.

"Stinky Yi Feng?"

She called out, but there was still no response from the other side.

Where on earth had this guy gone gallivanting?

Why hadn't he come back yet?

The door behind her opened.

"Uh, Muxi, what are you doing?" Li Wan came in with a plate of fruit, seeing Gu Muxi poking Yi Feng's window with the clothes prop.

Gu Muxi was startled, quickly retracting the clothes prop, and turned around.

"Nothing, mom, you walk so quietly, you scared me."

Li Wan saw through her thoughts with one glance, a mother knows her daughter best.

"Are you waiting for Yi Feng to come back?" Li Wan set down the fruit plate with a smile.

Gu Muxi's cheeks reddened, she pouted and stubbornly argued, "I am not, not waiting for him, who waits for him?"

Li Wan chuckled, "Come, have some fruit."

Gu Muxi put the clothes prop away and went to eat the fruit, the plate contained sliced apples.

Li Wan sat on the bed watching her, then suddenly asked, "Muxi, do you like Yi Feng?"

"Cough cough cough—"

Hearing this, Gu Muxi nearly choked on an apple, coughing several times.

"Mom, what are you talking about, I, I don't like him, only a fool would like him!" Gu Muxi argued with a flushed face.

"Oh, is that so?" Li Wan saw her embarrassed look and covered her mouth to hide a laugh.

"I think Yi Feng is quite nice, a kind kid, and quite clever."

Gu Muxi chewed on her apple, casually said, "Mom, where is he nice, I can't see it, he just knows to bully me."

"He bullies you? I don't believe it." Li Wan shook her head.

Gu Muxi: "…"

Mom, are you his mom or my mom?

"How does he bully you?"

"Yesterday at school, he…" Gu Muxi was saying, but suddenly her cheeks flushed red, and she swallowed her words back.

Thinking about her first kiss being stolen by Yi Feng in front of everyone, she felt embarrassed…

Li Wan smiled, "Alright, eat slowly, I'll go cook, your dad will be back soon."

"Rumble—"

Suddenly, there was lightning and thunder outside, and the sky was covered with dark clouds.

"Ah, it looks like it's going to rain heavily, Yi Feng that kid didn't bring an umbrella, did he?" Li Wan went to the window, muttered to herself.

After speaking, she left the room.

"Rumble—"

The thunder sounded again, and rain started pouring down like beans, quickly turning into a downpour.

Gu Muxi closed the window, staring at the rain hitting the glass somewhat dazedly.

Stinky Yi Feng really didn't bring an umbrella, did he?

And… his bike was punctured by me, how is he going to come back?

Could something happen?

Stinky Yi Feng wouldn't be soaked like a drowned rat, would he?

Or… fall into a ditch?

Gu Muxi uneasily returned to her desk to continue leaning over, staring out at the heavy rain in a daze.

After a while, she got up and ran out of the room.

"Mom, I'm going out for a bit."

She took two umbrellas, put on rain boots, opened the door, and ran downstairs.

Li Wan peeked out from the kitchen, a smile on her lips.

"This child…"

"She says she doesn't care about Yi Feng on her face, but she cares more than anyone in her heart…"

…

Gu Muxi held an umbrella at the entrance of the residential quarters, looking towards the road entrance.

Why hasn't stinky Yi Feng come back yet?

The rain started to lighten.

She sat on a bench at the entrance, waiting for over half an hour.

Suddenly, a bicycle appeared at the road entrance.

She stood up to look, and as the bicycle got closer, she recognized that the person riding it was Wang Tie, with Yi Feng sitting behind.

"Yi Feng!"

Gu Muxi's face lit up with a smile, waving her hand to greet him, also secretly relieved.

Hearing her, Wang Tie steered the bicycle towards her, stopping in front of her after a short while.

"Finally arrived!" Wang Tie wiped the water from his face, completely soaked, looking like a drowned rat.

"Miss Gu, I was saying…"

"Stinky Yi Feng, where did you go? Why did you come back so late?!" Gu Muxi bypassed him, holding the umbrella, and went straight to Yi Feng, scolding him.

Wang Tie was frozen in place.

"…"

Hey hey, don't ignore me!

I'm a person too!

"I didn't expect it to rain, halfway back it started pouring, I rushed back as soon as the rain lightened."

"Hehe, could it be… you were specifically waiting for me?"

Yi Feng held something in his hands, got off the bike, wiped the rain off his face, staring at her, grinning.

"Who, who was specifically waiting for you? Definitely not, I, I was waiting for my dad!" Gu Muxi's cheeks flushed, her eyes a bit flustered, quickly changing the subject.

"Huh? Don't you have a raincoat? Are you brain-damaged?"

"Having a raincoat and not wearing it, letting yourself get soaked by the rain?"

"Isn't that just asking for trouble?"

She nagged while stepping forward a few steps, using her umbrella to shield him from the rain.

Her umbrella was a bit small, the two had to get very close to completely cover both of them.

Yi Feng smelled the refreshing scent coming from her, even being scolded felt good.

Was she caring about me?

This little girl is tough on the outside but soft on the heart.

"What's in your raincoat?" Gu Muxi got closer before noticing the raincoat he was holding seemed to have something wrapped inside, her expression filled with curiosity.

What could be so important that he'd rather get soaked than wear his raincoat?

"Let's go inside first."

He quickly ran back, getting under the shelter.

Gu Muxi followed with a puzzled look on her face.

"What treasure are you holding?"

"It's a birthday gift for you."

"Ah?"

Gu Muxi was stunned.

"But my birthday isn't until two weeks from Saturday!"

"No matter, I'll give it to you twice."

Yi Feng lifted the raincoat, revealing a 1.3-meter-tall pink pig plush toy from within.

The plush pig had two backpacks hanging on its trotters, looking adorable and very cute.

"Happy early birthday, Muxi."

Gu Muxi looked at him in shock, her heart pounding.

He, he braved the rain without wearing his raincoat, just to keep this gift for me dry?

Just because… it was a birthday gift for me?

Her heart swelled with surprise and emotion, her nose tingling.

"Stinky Yi Feng…"

"Don't you like it?"

"I like it!"

"Do you like the color?"

"I like it!"

"Do you like the style?"

"I like it!"

"Do you like me?"

"I like… Huh? Stinky Yi Feng! Taking advantage of me again!"

Gu Muxi's cheeks flushed, snatched the pink pig plush toy from his hands, and said haughtily, "I'm keeping this gift!"

Then, she left an umbrella behind, holding the pink pig and turned to leave.

Her cheeks were burning, and she had to leave before she embarrassed herself in front of Yi Feng.

"Whoa, brother Feng, did Miss Gu just blush?" Wang Tie was amazed.

"If even you noticed, then she probably did." Yi Feng smiled.
