Chapter 39: CH 39

The final event of the second day was the 4×200-meter relay. Song Xici couldn’t participate due to a sprained ankle, so Jiang Qingyue casually ran the last leg as if nothing had happened and helped Class A1 secure first place, successfully concluding the sports meeting.

“Hey, weren’t you carried to the medical room by Brother Han yesterday because of your sprained ankle?” a curious classmate asked. “How come you’re running today?”

“He suffered from heatstroke yesterday,” Ren Shuhan replied. “Don’t pay attention to those details.”

“Haha, they’re a couple, so they can hug if they want. Why bother with all the fuss?”

“After the hug, they probably exchanged temporary marks. Tsk tsk, I can smell the scent of wine from Brother Qingyue even from a distance.”

“Who knows, maybe they opened a bottle of an 82 year old Lafite in the medical room?”

Ren Shuhan chuckled and shooed them away. “If you can smell it, stay away. Be careful not to get stopped by traffic police on your way home.”

“Even if we get stopped, we’re not afraid. After all, only Brother Qingyue will have an alcohol test result that exceeds the limit. Hahaha…”

“…Get lost.” Ren Shuhan felt exhausted. Who knew that he wouldn’t get to experience it because he had to wait until his wife turned of legal age.

The monotonous routine of studying resumed. Although Qingyue didn’t agree to Song Xici’s bet, he still devoted himself to studying day and night. Ren Shuhan often tried to persuade him to take a break, but Qingyue found it fascinating and claimed that resting was boring.

Well, in the world of top students, I shouldn’t make assumptions.

Ren Shuhan, on the other hand, enjoyed himself more. Every day, he thought about dating and having fun, savoring his youth. He experienced campus romance once again, reliving what he had forgotten in the previous world. Since he was gradually picking up his academic studies, his grades shouldn’t be too bad. Besides, he had already admitted to Qingyue that his identity as a top student had collapsed. He had no burden of maintaining any pretenses and was too lazy to pretend to be someone he wasn’t.

Most importantly, Qingyue’s academic performance this time was average, which didn’t put much pressure on him. It didn’t make him feel like he had to strive hard just because his wife was so outstanding—or at least, that’s what he thought.

Then, the results of the joint examination were released, and Jiang Qingyue ranked first in the grade.

Ren Shuhan: ? I thought you said your level was similar to mine, and that you were only reviewing by explaining the problems to me?

“Uh,” Jiang Qingyue innocently replied, “I thought my level was just average.”

He wasn’t lying because his memories were messed up with the events from the previous world.

Just before the exams, the main transmigration system finally completed its update and suddenly popped up a reminder, startling Ren Shuhan, who had forgotten about the system.

However, there was one thing Ren Shuhan never forgot—the previous world.

“What about the previous Qingyue?” That was his greatest concern. He feared that his beloved would be left alone in the parallel world.

“The previous book has been archived,” the system reassured him. “The data of partially overlapping characters has all been transferred to this book.”

Ren Shuhan asked again, “So, Qingyue has also come to this world? Can you restore his memories from the previous world? How many more books will I have to go through?”

Surely he couldn’t go searching in each book?

It was actually fine if he had to search for him, but he didn’t want to think of Qingyue suffering from injustice because of the original owner’s actions or settings.

“The characters’ memories are overloaded, so the system can only provide vague memories for binding, which will assist the host in searching for them after each transmigration,” the system replied. “The specific books and their contents are still being analyzed, and it depends on the host’s physical recovery condition.”

So, Qingyue’s memories are all fuzzy? It feels a bit disappointing.

However, the upgraded system provided two additional functions, which were still useful.

One function was to shield all the important characters from the protagonist’s aura, and the other was to automatically compensate for the loopholes caused by the closure of the protagonist’s halo. In other words, Song Xici’s system functions were completely disabled, and the fuzzy memories of the Song family and Jiang Qingyue returned.

After that, the Song couple still didn’t choose to contact Jiang Qingyue.

Although it was a bit realistic, they couldn’t fully accept this non-biological child. Fortunately, Ren Shuhan had made preparations in advance and didn’t let the system restore all of Jiang Qingyue’s memories from the original owner. Instead, it removed the past involving the Song family, which meant that Jiang Qingyue wouldn’t recall those familial relationships and wouldn’t feel sad because of their loss.

Song Xishi did come to see Jiang Qingyue once.

He still had some feelings for this younger brother, but they weren’t deep. Song Xishi comforted Jiang Qingyue and assured him that their family would continue to support him, asking him not to worry about his livelihood.

“I’m not worried, really,” Jiang Qingyue sincerely said. “I know that Mom and Dad don’t have any feelings for me, and I understand them.”

Because Ren Shuhan had marked him, the conservative-minded Jiang Qingyue now relied heavily on him. Moreover, with the return of vague memories from the previous world, it was only natural for him to depend on his own Alpha for everything.

“Don’t pretend to be strong,” Song Xishi said, unimpressed. “Your previous grades were always average. Now that they suddenly improved, it’s clear that you lack a sense of security. You shouldn’t tire yourself out too much in the future, but you also can’t be like Xici… Ah, his grades used to be very good. He became lax after going home for a month, and his grades plummeted. Both of you need to find a balance.”

Jiang Qingyue: “? Hmmm.”

If I had known, I would have agreed to his bet!

Song Xici’s grades dropped because the upgraded system blocked his halo.

Actually, Ren Shuhan didn’t care about what kind of aura he had, but in a school like Yi High School, where everyone was studying diligently, even if Qingyue and himself had good grades because of cheating, they had also put in efforts to study in their previous world. In this world, they couldn’t slack off. Upon learning that Song Xici lying around all day might take away the spots of their classmates, Ren Shuhan decided to turn off his halo.

“So, what Song Xiyue said was true. His grades are really trash. Did he cheat last time?”

“Who said he was good at everything? I heard that he went looking for a fight and was easily defeated by Brother Han with just one move. Isn’t that a humiliation he brought upon himself?”

“I used to think he was a good match for Brother Han, but now… well, he’s really not as good as Song Qingyue.”

“Did you hear? Song Xiyue has already been marked by Brother Han. I really didn’t expect that. I thought he had used some means, but it turns out Brother Han himself admitted that he pursued Song Xiyue when he entered Yi High School. What’s going on?”

“Do we even need to guess? Based on my years of experience reading novels, it’s definitely because Brother Han used to be too aloof. Just think about how icy he used to be towards Song Xiyue, always indifferent to him. But once Song Xiyue left, he was dumbfounded. What else could he do? Spoil him?”

“Hahaha, I can already picture it. He had to quickly start chasing his wife to the crematorium, right?”

“Wait a minute, something’s not right. Didn’t Brother Han not even know what Song Xiyue looked like before? Didn’t he need his photo?”

“Aren’t you interested in seeing photos of the person you’ve been thinking about?”

“Ah, those two are from the same family, but the difference between the brothers is too tragic.”

In the comments that Song Xici used to enjoy listening to, where people would criticize and belittle others, he went from being the protagonist to being the target himself. And the person he wanted to hear praise about, the one they envied and resented, shifted from him to Song Xiyue.

Song Xici was about to cry from anger.

Currently, if he were to reveal his Omega identity, his classmates’ evaluations of him would be much friendlier. However, as he had just been marked by Yan Huan, once he removed the isolation patch on his gland, it would emit the scent of another Alpha. At that time, if he were to be questioned, he would lose face.

After he calmed down, he went to find Yan Huan who directly told him, “Don’t come looking for me. I have someone I like now. I was just helping you out that day.”

He realized that even the spare tire didn’t love him either.

In the end, Song Xici transferred to another school and went abroad to study. The Song couple had only just recognized him as their biological child, and they didn’t want him to be so far away from home. However, Song Xishi made the decision and allowed him to leave because he learned about the note from Ren Shuhan.

Ren Shuhan had learned about the author of the note from the system, but without any other evidence, he simply forged it. He directly wrote a new note in Song Xici’s handwriting and handed it to Song Xishi to handle.

The two brothers couldn’t get along, and their bickering was just childish. Song Xishi considered it immature. However, spreading the news of Jiang Qingyue’s biological parents being imprisoned in school was going too far. So, Song Xishi wanted both brothers to be as far away from each other as possible and even deducted a considerable amount from Song Xici’s living expenses.

Ren Shuhan had initially wanted to teach Song Xici a lesson, but in the end, he didn’t take action because he was still a minor. However, Song Xici, unwilling to be so lonely and miserable, bribed a few thugs before leaving. He had them spread rumors online and in the high school campus about Jiang Qingyue’s biological parents.

This was…Hehe.

Unable to bear it, Ren Shuhan directly used the system to find these thugs and had them spread the news in the opposite direction. It revealed that Song Xici was actually an Omega, pretending to attract the attention of Alphas, and even went so far as to intentionally collide with his brother during the sports meet. This news spread to both schools, giving Song Xici a grand entrance but a dispirited exit.

Upon hearing this news, Chu Lu initially thought it was Jiang Qingyue’s doing and couldn’t help but admire and respect him. He intentionally visited Yi High School and found Jiang Qingyue.

“You’re quite cunning, huh?” Chu Lu said. “Why did you do such obvious things, and he still likes you?”

Jiang Qingyue didn’t quite understand his meaning, but thinking about his “kindness,” he patiently replied, “Actually, I didn’t do anything. He had feelings for me from the beginning, and it was his initiative.”

“Ah?” This was considered doing nothing? Chu Lu was shocked. He couldn’t believe that such an innocent-looking person on the surface could casually say such terrifying things. “Why?”

“I don’t know either.”

This question had also puzzled Jiang Qingyue for a long time. That day, his world was a blank slate, and his memories only consisted of hazy images and critical voices. Anxiously, he picked up a math book from the shelf, holding it close to his chest, pretending that he could draw infinite security from it. Suddenly, a beam of light shone in, and a handsome Alpha youth called his name, illuminating his world.

At that time, he wasn’t called Qingyue yet. He thought: it would be so nice if I were truly called Qingyue.

“Maybe it’s because we’re childhood friends.”

As he finished saying this, the system had already finished filtering Song Xiyue’s memories and imported them to him.

Jiang Qingyue remembered his past with his Alpha.

Me reading the last line : ( : ౦ ‸ ౦ : )

(I’m actually more used to having the love interest remember their past lives at the end of the novel, so that’s why I was surprised lol) 

Anyways, there’s only one chapter left for this arc! It passed by so quickly  (´• ω •`)ﾉ
