Rebirth of the Rich Second Generation's Growth Diary

Chapter 91 Of course I'm chasing her

Li Xu ran a long circle along the pedestrian path in the community. When he came back, he was speechless to see Lei Yinbing still fiddling with his bicycle in the same place.

He could have pretended not to see it just now, but now this was the only way back. Li Xu didn't plan to go around in a big circle and go back from another direction, so he walked over slowly.

Lei Yinbing was concentrating on putting on his chain.

It can be seen that Lei Yinbing does not ride a bicycle often... otherwise, he would not have crashed for no apparent reason on such a good road.

I don't ride often, so I've never encountered a situation where the chain was broken and I needed to replace it.

But Li Xu stood there and watched for a few seconds, speechless...

Why is it so difficult to put on a chain?
Lei Yinbing had the habit of pushing his glasses. As he did so, he got several oil marks on his face without even noticing.

Some people couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and Li Xu said, "You can't get it up like this."

Lei Yinbing was startled and looked up, only to see that it was Li Xu.

Li Xu squatted down and said slowly, "Let me do it."

“This… is not necessary…”

"Hang it up here. You don't need to hang up too much. It's impossible to just stretch the chain up and tighten it. Look, only two or three sections are needed here..."

As Li Xu spoke, he turned the pedals of the bicycle, and the chainring turned accordingly. The two or three sections of the chain that were hung up engaged with the parts that were not hung up, and then with a "snap", all of them were hung up.

Li Xu only took a few seconds to hang the chain back on. Lei Yinbing opened his mouth and said a little unnaturally: "Thank you..."

"Hehe...it's nothing. You'll know what to do next time."

Li Xu casually patted the oil off his hands.

Seeing this, Lei Yinbing took out a pack of toilet paper from his pocket and took out the last piece.

Li Xu smiled and said, "You should just wipe your own face. I don't need it."

Lei Yinbing was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously wiped it with paper, and the result was a black patch.

Li Xu was already running away slowly, humming a little tune.

Lei Yinbing turned his head and looked in the direction where Li Xu left, remaining silent.

……

"I can't stay in this class forever. I'll definitely be moving to Class 4 or 5 next... Of course, we'll have to see how Class 4 and 5 are divided into arts and science."

Xiong Haiyang chatted with his friends in the class and talked about their future plans.

Overall, I am satisfied with the life here.

In this era, studying abroad is still an extremely intimidating gimmick. Students stay abroad for several years, but in fact, the education they receive is more of the domestic one. Especially during the annual holidays, they will return to China for tutoring. This made Xiong Haiyang's grades always among the best during the years he was abroad.

Except for a few elite schools abroad, the textbooks for junior and high schools are much simpler than those in China. Domestic students can often make great strides in mathematics after going abroad.

Having been used to being treated as an idol abroad, I was initially a little worried about the gap when I returned to China.

But after returning home, I found that it was not the case.

Although his subjects such as mathematics, which were considered top-notch in his previous high school, are only mediocre here, his English is good.

He has absolute confidence in this subject.

Precisely because of his proficiency in English, many people here admire him very much.

Of course there are some areas that I am not satisfied with.

Zhao Ming said, "You and Tang Qiaoning are probably the best at speaking English in our class right now. Honestly, I really envy you. Abroad...isn't the ultimate goal of learning English to interact with foreigners?"

Hearing Tang Qiaoning's name, Xiong Haiyang's expression changed subtly and he shook his head: "It's different."

He recalled his time with Tang Qiaoning abroad. At that time, Tang Qiaoning was still an innocent little girl who loved to cry. After several contacts, she was impressed by his amazing knowledge and intelligence, and began to admire him.

The sentence Tang Qiaoning said most often was: "Wow, Xiong Haiyang, you are so amazing, you even know this..." Xiong Haiyang recognized Tang Qiaoning at that time. Although she was a little stupid and thought a little simply, she had a good vision, so he would usually take care of her.

Occasionally, Tang Qiaoning would praise other people in the school, but in Xiong Haiyang's eyes, they were all mediocre.

Tang Qiaoning was easily deceived by appearances, so she would correct her earnestly.

But after returning to China, Tang Qiaoning gradually changed.

Before school started, she came to me and said she wanted to introduce a friend to me. She praised him for being smart and funny. At that time, I had some... doubts in my heart.

But I have never been a jealous person.

Then let's see what kind of person he is. But when we met, he was just a guy who couldn't even speak Chinese English well. I don't know what Tang Qiaoning thought was so great about him that she praised him so much in front of her.

So, after a few clicks, his true level was exposed, and Tang Qiaoning should be able to see it clearly, right?
Unexpectedly, Tang Qiaoning was somewhat dissatisfied with this.

Forget it, forget it, you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.

"Being good at English isn't anything to brag about." Xiong Haiyang shook his head. "Having your own independent judgment and cognitive thinking skills is what's most important. Tang Qiaoning's still a little behind. Being good at English... after spending so much time abroad, she should definitely improve."

"Birds of a feather flock together. Over time, you'll slowly become like the kind of people you make friends with. This is especially true in terms of cognition. People with less talent will gradually converge with those with more talent. Therefore, it's important to choose the right people for your interactions."

Xiong Haiyang sighed and said, "After returning to China, she went astray..."

Zhao Ming felt a little strange when listening to what Xiong Haiyang said, but he did not refute it. However, he did not know Tang Qiaoning very well. He just thought she was a very beautiful girl. He did not express his opinion on this matter. He smiled and changed the subject.

After chatting for a while, Xiong Haiyang suddenly brought the topic back to Tang Qiaoning. After a moment's deliberation, he asked Zhao Ming, "Are you familiar with Li Xu?"

"Uh, I'm not very familiar with him. I just know that his family should be quite wealthy, but I'm not sure what they do specifically."

Most of the students in the class did not know each other's family situations. The impression that Li Xu was very rich was also caused by his exaggerated behavior in the beginning in this class.

"Does he like Tang Qiaoning?" Xiong Haiyang asked.

"I really don't know." Zhao Ming has no habit of talking nonsense behind people's backs. If he doesn't know, he doesn't know. It's hard to guess about such things.

Xiong Haiyang shook his head and stopped talking about this topic. Instead, he said, "There are quite a lot of people in love in this school..."

Zhao Ming nodded: "Yeah."

Xiong Haiyang smiled. When it comes to love, he has completely different ideas from those people in China... There is no such thing as early love or late love. Love is love, and there is no need to be so shy about it.

Xiong Haiyang was willing to share some of his views on love with Zhao Ming, saying, "Brother, I've heard a piece of advice: the person you like is determined by your vision on the one hand, and your position on the other."

Xiong Haiyang lowered his head. "It's normal to like Tang Qiaoning. After all, she's pretty. But guys who like this kind of girl... probably don't have much substance."

Zhao Ming felt a little unhappy... The reason was that he liked Tang Qiaoning very much, but he couldn't say this out loud.

Zhao Ming then asked, "Do you have someone you like?"

Xiong Haiyang glanced at Zhao Ming, pondered for a moment, and then said slowly, "Forget it, it's not something shameful, I'll tell you."

"The one I like is a girl who is one grade higher than us."

Zhao Ming then continued to ask, "Is it very profound?"

"She's very talented!" Xiong Haiyang said confidently. "She's talented, has substance, and is very elegant. I've also made inquiries about her, and she's never been in a relationship... More importantly, she just rejected the advances of a second-generation rich kid who I heard was incredibly wealthy."

"Oh……"

"From this, we can tell that the girl is a girl who pays attention to her inner world and doesn't care much about material things."

"As I said before, the person you like is determined by your vision and also by your position."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Zhao Ming looked at Xiong Haiyang curiously.

"Of course I'm going to chase her." Xiong Haiyang said as a matter of course.
