Rebirth: Once Again With You

Chapter 159 Evaluation (1)



Even while sitting in the class, Li Caiyi's mind still wandered to yesterday's incident. How come Meng Renshu suddenly dreamt about his previous life's memory?

For now, the only thing she knew was that Meng Renshu couldn't remember the content of his dream once he woke up, which meant he had no control over what he could remember and not. What happened to Meng Renshu probably wasn't rebirth like her, but something else.

Li Caiyi frowned as she scratched the point she had just written on her notebook, feeling that her mind had gone awry.

In some web novel she had read, there were few instances where the female and male lead would regain their previous life's memory. What if that was also the case here? But then again, another question arose.

Meng Renshu only partially regained his memory while she got a complete memory. What was it with this contradiction?

Li Caiyi flipped the pages of her notebook, and her gaze fell on the information she had written about Shen Qiang and the weird sensation she felt earlier.

She had a crazy theory in her mind. However, she dared not to think too deeply because she desperately hoped her theory was false.

Li Caiyi still remembered how she prayed so strongly at the end of her life so she could reunite with Shen Qiang. Nevertheless, it seemed the heavens had another plan for her since they threw her back to the current timeline, where she still had a chance to fix her mistake.

Li Caiyi naturally thought Shen Qiang would also get reborn like her because they committed suicide at the same place and the same time, but what if the one who got reborn wasn't him?

Just like in the web novel, where the male and female lead would reunite to clear up their misunderstanding, what if the male lead in this story wasn't Shen Qiang but Meng Renshu from the very beginning?

Li Caiyi felt dreadful thinking about that idea. Because if her theory was true, her chance to meet Shen Qiang would become almost non-existent. She would have no other way to identify Shen Qiang anymore, even if the person himself stood in front of her.

Even now, Li Caiyi felt she stood at the farthest place from him, and there was nothing she could do except wait for him to find her.

Besides, this information regarding Shen Qiang she had written on the notebook, which she had no recollection of, bothered her so much.

It felt like the situation slowly got reversed, where Meng Renshu remembered things, and Li Caiyi became a regular high school student from this timeline.

If this rebirth mechanism was something God had decided for her, she wanted to sue that God for being half-assed in his blessing. Li Caiyi honestly had no control over this situation, and it pissed her off as much as it frustrated her.

Li Caiyi couldn't focus on the class at all, thinking about the various possibilities that might happen.

***

At lunchtime, Li Caiyi bade goodbye to her friends as she made her way to the backyard garden, where she and Shao Jingfei had promised to meet. He asked to meet up there for some reason, but Li Caiyi didn't mind as long as she could talk with him.

It had been a while since she last talked to him since Li Chunhua's kidnapping incident. This would be an excellent chance to show him her new novel!

Li Caiyi walked on the stone path leading to the backyard garden and glimpsed Shao Jingfei, who sat on the bench near a big tree while humming something.

"Shao Jingfei!" Li Caiyi called him to announce her presence.

Shao Jingfei turned his head and raised his hand. Li Caiyi walked over to him hastily.

"I'm sorry. Did I make you wait for too long?" She asked him as soon as she stopped in front of him.

"No, I just arrived myself. Have a seat first." Shao Jingfei flashed a grin while patting the spot beside him.

After they sat side by side, Shao Jingfei said to her first, "So what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Actually, I want to tell you I have finished my novel."

"REALLY?!" Shao Jingfei shoved his face closer to her with a glint of excitement in his eyes, making Li Caiyi have to lean back so she could have some space.

"Uhh… yeah. That's why I want you to check on it."

"Show me!" Shao Jingfei rubbed his palm together as though he expected her to put out some money.

Li Caiyi dug out her phone and sent the file to Shao Jingfei, which he immediately opened and examined carefully. The atmosphere suddenly turned quiet since the talkative one was very silent.

Li Caiyi didn't know Shao Jingfei could look this serious when immersed in something he truly felt passionate about. His eyes were moving as fast as his finger scrolling down his phone screen, to the point Li Caiyi doubted if he even read it properly or just skimmed through it.

While Li Caiyi was waiting for him, she absentmindedly moved her leg as she enjoyed the breeze touching her cheek. Her life after rebirth had been so hectic that the spring quickly passed.

In no time at all, it was almost a midterm exam. Li Caiyi wondered if she could pass the same exam again. If only she could remember what kind of question appeared on the exam in the past, or better, some lottery number in her previous life.

"I get it!"

Li Caiyi flinched at Shao Jingfei's loud exclamation. She rubbed her chest to calm down her heartbeat before she asked him. "Have you finished reading some of it? What do you think?"

"As expected, you are born to be an author, after all!"

"I remember you said the same thing last time. Do you like my new story?"

"Yes, very much. Especially how you gave the supporting characters the chance to redeem themselves. It opened an alternative path for the main character's development and increased the depth of the story at the same time. And then…."

Li Caiyi's jaw hung open when Shao Jingfei chattered about the plus and minus of her story so quickly like he was chanting a mantra.

It hadn't been ten minutes since he read the story, yet he could easily recite what happened in the third chapter with amazing precision. This meant that he had a full grasp of the story and not only skimmed through it.

What a god-speed reading skill! Li Caiyi was dumbstruck by Shao Jingfei's hidden talent.
