Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 271 - 118: Qin Shiqing, What Is Your Ideal Type of Guy Like? (3)
"Little Speaker, let me have a look!"
The others all clamored to see it, passing it along one by one, each astonished.
When it reached Xiaoyanzi, Su Zelin couldn’t help but glance over too.
He wasn’t curious whether Zhao Mingxuan’s girlfriend was pretty or not; he wanted to know if she was the woman from his past life.
Even though they weren’t on good terms in the past life, when Zhao Mingxuan got married, he did invite him. Whether it was to bury the hatchet or to show off, that remained unknown.
Su Zelin graciously attended, so he had seen the bride.
However, she was not a good woman.
At least, as far as Zhao Mingxuan was concerned, she wasn’t a good wife.
In the first few years after Zhao Mingxuan got married, he would always boast about his wife at gatherings.
But a few years later, he never mentioned her because he had divorced her.
During their school days, Zhao Mingxuan really liked Sun Yanzi, and every time they had a KTV gathering, he would sing Sun Yanzi’s particular song the most, which had only two words for the title.
One of the lyrics went like this—"Love is a light, green until you’re flustered."
It must be said, this really had a touch of mysticism.
But come to think of it, it’s not that surprising.
The girl had a bit of a background in Beijing.
Love during the school years is pure, but upon entering society, she gradually became not so pure.
Zhao Mingxuan’s father was somewhat significant in Jianglan, but even the greatest leader in such a small city couldn’t compare to a minor official in Beijing.
The outcome of a strong woman and a weak man is always tragic; Zhao Mingxuan couldn’t hold on, and the kite was bound to snap.
Should I find an opportunity to give him a heads up?
The photo circulated throughout the whole class for a week before finally returning to Zhao Mingxuan.
Amidst a chorus of envy and jealousy.
Zhao Mingxuan felt a bit inflated, thinking that he was the true protagonist and that a loafer like Su Zelin was nothing.
He even observed Qin Shiqing’s expression specially.
Those guys in high school who’d had a dream girl but couldn’t get her always harbored a slightly special psychology. After getting a decent girlfriend, they couldn’t wait to show her off in front of their dream girl.
See, you didn’t choose me, but I found someone as good as you or even better—it’s your loss!
However, Qin Shiqing showed no visible expression and was chatting and laughing with Su Zelin, which suddenly dampened Zhao Mingxuan’s thrill, making it feel utterly tasteless.
You desperately showed off to your dream girl, assuming she would feel sad, remorse, or even regret it for life. But alas, it’s all just the wishful thinking of a young person—the other party has no such thoughts at all.
Zhao Mingxuan, feeling his interest dwindling, could no longer hold his drink, and tried to rally his spirits, "Let’s end this small topic here, and move on to the next segment—answering classmates’ questions."
"Next up, everyone present has to answer two questions from others!"
"As long as the questions aren’t too excessive, answer them truthfully!"
"If there are multiple questions, pick the two with the highest interest!"
"Let’s start according to the old student number order, number one, Qin Shiqing!"
The student numbers were based on the admission scores when they entered high school. Qin Shiqing ranked highest in the school and naturally was number one.
This little Q&A game is somewhat like a softened version of truth or dare. People were quite interested in it, plus the first was the class’s goddess, Qin Shiqing.
"Qin Shiqing, do you have a boyfriend?"
A boy rushed to ask the first question.
Nobody had any objections; this was one of the things they wanted to know.
"Not yet!"
Qin Shiqing smiled and shook her head.
"Qin Shiqing, then what’s your ideal type of guy?"
The second boy also threw out a question, which was what everyone was most concerned about.
Dozens of eyes gazed at Qin Shiqing again.
The one who can match the goddess, what kind of person would that be?
Qin Shiqing hesitated for a moment, then spoke again: "Actually, my requirements are pretty simple. He doesn’t need to be a graduate from a prestigious school, just someone optimistic and cheerful, attentive and considerate, someone who knows how to take care of people, and it’s okay if he has a few small bad habits. Of course, I also hope to have many beautiful moments and memories with him."
All the boys were astonished upon hearing this.
The goddess’s requirements are indeed not high.
Could it be me?
Qin Shiqing finished answering, then it was number two, then number three.
The most frequently asked questions still revolved around relationships because everyone loves this gossip.
...
Number thirty-two was Xiaoyanzi.
Someone asked: "Xiaoyanzi, how did you come to decide to become a teacher? That doesn’t seem like your personality!"
"Who says I can’t be a teacher? I can be gentle too, okay?"
Tang Yan widened her Karolina eyes.
She thought others had some misperceptions about her.
"Oh, come on, with your machine-gun mouth, gentle? I’m starting to pray for your future students!"
The boys couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Back in school, they didn’t dare to casually banter with Tang Yan, afraid of being scolded, but this Q&A session changed things.
Lu Haoran thought to himself that Xiaoyanzi did have gentle moments, like when she stood up for him during their graduation photo; that was quite gentle.
It was a kind of domineering gentle, but an honest person quite enjoyed it.
"Xiaoyanzi, then what kind of partner are you looking for?"
Someone else asked.
The honest guy immediately perked up his ears, heart pounding—that was the answer he most wanted to know.
Tang Yan thought for a moment: "Well, as long as he listens, it’s okay."
The honest guy was ecstatic.
I might not have many merits, but I’m very obedient!
After Xiaoyanzi, it was Lu Haoran’s turn—they were sequentially numbered, which was a fate of sorts.
Regarding this straightforward and honest classmate, the others didn’t know what to ask, so they went with the topic of choosing a partner.
Faced with so many people, even after social growth, Lu Haoran still blushed.
But he mustered the courage and calmly said, "Everyone knows I’m not good with words, and I often feel at a loss when things happen, so I’d like to find a lively girl with a bit of opinion; we could complement each other."
After he spoke, the honest guy’s heart was pounding like crazy, almost jumping out of his chest.
He had the feeling he was almost confessing to Xiaoyanzi.
Tang Yan also blushed slightly.
The others noticed nothing abnormal between the two.
A guy like Lu Haoran looking for a lively girl with opinions was indeed normal.
But everyone was slightly amazed.
In the past, Lu Haoran would stutter talking to girls, now he was speaking so fluently in front of an audience.
After a few more people answered, it was Su Zelin’s turn.
The slacker’s student number was 36.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that he hung at the end of the class rankings in high school; when Su Zelin first got into Secondary School Number Two, his grades weren’t too bad and he ranked in the middle to lower part of his class.
When he took the stage, the room suddenly quieted down because, being the rebel and outlier of the class back then, most kept him at a respectful distance. Relations weren’t necessarily bad, but they always felt they weren’t the same kind of people, and thus had no common language.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Lu Haoran was about to throw out a random question to give his buddy an easy out.
Then Qin Shiqing spoke first: "Su Zelin, I heard you became class monitor in college. Is that true?"
As soon as these words came out, the room burst into noise.
"No way, Su Zelin became class monitor, are you kidding?"
"I’m fainting; could Su Zelin really be a class monitor?"
"This is too unbelievable!"
"..."
The rebel of the class had become the leader of a college class—everyone found it incredible, as if the sun had risen in the west.
In fact, when Lu Haoran, Qin Shiqing, and Xiaoyanzi first heard this news, they had the same reaction.
Zhao Mingxuan was even more dumbfounded.
Holy crap, are all the people in their class blind? How could they elect this black sheep as class monitor?
Lu Haoran thought this question was brilliant and a chance for Zelin to shine.
It’s still Shiqing who’s clever; I didn’t think of it!
Seems like it’s not just me who likes to praise Zelin—Shiqing also wants to sing his praises!
