Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Han Zixin was standing outside the waiting room when he felt someone dragging him inside. As he looked ahead, he saw none other than anyone but his best friend dragging him inside.

An Xiulan raised her perfectly arched brow at him, "Are you hiding from me, Cheat Prince?"

Han Zixin gulped back the words as he looked at her.

"Am I so beautiful that you are blinded by it?" An Xiulan asked dramatically, blinking her eyes at him.

"You are growing narcissistic day by day, " came the reply that made her snort.

"I'm not narcissistic, I'm just highly self-aware, " An Xiulan replied, flipping her hair and crossing her arms over her chest. "Why were you hiding outside?"

One thing An Xiulan couldn't understand was why he was standing outside the room while all of the people who wanted to meet her were inside. She could have used her big brain to find the answer. But it was evening and she had been on a diet for almost 10 days straight where she only ate boiled vegetables and meat to maintain her figure. Thus, she could only use her big brain once a day.

Just like how we couldn't use a big electric device on low voltage in the same way she couldn't use her big brain on small energy. If she ended up using it, she was sure that her brain circuit would crash. And she still had one round to live.

Han Zixin flicked the forehead of Littleblockhead whose thoughts were reflecting right on her forehead. "Stop running the wheels of your brain. I was not hiding from you. You were busy with your family and I just wanted to give you time with them to spend. Moreover, as your best friend, I was waiting for my turn."

"Aren't you my family too?" An Xiulan furrowed her brow. "I thought best friends are family. Am I wrong?"

Her simple and innocent question made it hard for Han Zixin to rebuke. In the end, he sighed as he said, "You are right. I'm your family."

His words were so soft and delicately spoken that he could hear the fast drumming of his heart when he said those words. How could such simple words have such an effect on him? He couldn't understand. But he knew that those words meant a lot to him. To be considered someone's family was a very beautiful feeling.

"So, what did you bring for me?" An Xiulan asked, shamelessly. "Didn't I tell you on We Chat how I have been shrunk to fit into the smallest size clothes present on the market? Do you know how many years it had been since I had a piece of chocolate? I hadn't had a bite of delicious food because Mr Yun asked me to keep my calories in the count. He said, unlike some people my body had a more tendency to grow fat. Did you bring something for me or not!"

According to her, it was the duty of a best friend to feed her yummiest food.

"Are you taking acting classes?" Han Zixin asked.

"Excuse me?" She reacted with furrowed brows.

"You have a lot of potential being a drama queen. So, you should consider taking acting classes, "Han Zixin replied, suppressing his laughter. " Can you think about something other than food?"

A Xiulan stared at him in horror.

"Look at your pot belly, " Han Zixin chuckled as he poked at the belly that was bulged out due to her overeating once again. He had seen An Qinyan feeding her daughter some homemade dishes. He was sure that she had cried over the phone about how much she was bullied here. Food was An Xiulan's sensitive point and she wouldn't mind using cheap tricks for it.

"You should always compliment me, not highlight my shortcomings," An Xiulan grumbled.

"Best friends are the highlighters. They highlight your shortcomings so you can improve yourself, " said Han Zixin like a wise man. "If I keep on praising you, covering your mistakes then wouldn't you become narcissistic who couldn't see anyone I've yourself. I am here to keep your feet on the ground."

"You mean attacking me with words all the time, " An Xiulan retorted.

Han Zixin gaped at him. "I attack you with words? How could you say this straight on my face?"

"Alright, " An Xiulan snorted and took a few steps. "Since I can't say the truth to your face, I will do it to your back, legs, head, feet etc. But no one will stop me from speaking the truth."

"You are ridiculous, "Han Zixin scoffed.

"I know that I'm ridiculously charming, " An Xiulan said, rolling her eyes. "Now don't look at me with your mouth hung open. A mosquito will enter. Imagine what if the mosquito bites the inside of your body, how will you itch?"

"Little block head!!!"

What had these people turned her to be? They trained beauty queens to be eloquent but her eloquence was deadly and ridiculous… Not ridiculously charming!

"How could you speak nonsense all the time?" Han Zixin muttered to himself.

"Lu Xuan says I have a PHD in speaking nonsense, " An Xiulan replied in a very proud tone. "I don't know what he meant but I checked on the internet that PhD holders are very intelligent and educated. So, I took his jeer as a compliment. Ain't I amazing?"

"Amazing? Even the girls I meet outside are more amazing than you, " Han Zixin retorted.

It was An Xiulan's time to gasp. She pointed her finger at him and said, "Take back your words."

"No, " Han Zixin stubbornly said.

Cheat prince, I'm in the process of getting offended, "An Xiulan informed. " 5…4…3.5…3.4…3.3…"

"You are such a brat, " Han Zixin muttered. "Alright, I take my words back."

"Good, " She grinned and took out her phone and started recording the video. "Repeat after me… I…Han Zixin…promise to take out An Xiulan for her then favourite tea a hundred times to apologize for the greatest sin I have committed."

Han Zixin was repeating after her but when he realized what he was about to do, he looked at her in horror.

"Wait, what? Which sin are you talking about?" Han Zixin asked her.

"Sin of talking about other beautiful and amazing girls with me, "An Xiulan replied with a devilish smile.

"That's not how it works!"

"Oh, cheat prince, that's how it works these days, "She kindly smiled at him, batting her eyelashes. She batted her eyes so hard that her false lashes came out.

"Both of you! What are you doing here?" An Xiulan stiffened when she heard Lu Zhaolin's strict voice.

"Scumbag daddy?" She turned her head to look at her father standing there holding Xiaobao. She closed her eyes and cringed. How could she say all the wrong things at the wrong times?

[Gosh, why does she feel as if she has done something scandalous?]

"Hello, Uncle Scumba… I mean Uncle Lu, "Han Zixin greeted the old man. He was courting death by calling this man Scumbag! It was not his fault. This man's daughter had eaten his brain out. The leftover brain cells that he had…he utilised on her again.

"What are you doing here, boy?" Lu Zhaolin asked as he walked ahead to stand beside the two children. "Why did you not go with your grandfather?"

"Lu boy!" They heard the voice of a hearty old man. "I didn't know initially that my old comrade Old Man Bai's son owns the hotel." The three people turned their gazes to see Grandpa Han coming with another old man. "Old man, meet my granddaughter. Xiulan quickly greeted Your grandpa Bai."

An Xiulan looked at the newcomer and bowed her head in greeting.

"What a sweet child, " Old Man Bai said. He turned to look at his childhood friend and asked, "I didn't know your son had another daughter. I thought Xiao Xian is Han Ziqiu's only son."

Han Qian snorted. "Look at my cute granddaughter. Do you think my struck-up son could ever have a role in making such a cute kid? She is this Lu boy's daughter but I took her in as my granddaughter."

"Grandpa, did you come to meet me?" An Xiulan asked the old man.

"Of course, how can I leave without meeting you?" Han Qian said as he patted her head. He turned to look at Old Man Bai and said, "Old man, look how bad food your son's hotel serves. My granddaughter lost all her chubby cheeks in a week. My heart aches to see how she can't eat delicious food."

The Old Man Bai looked at An Xiulan who nodded looking at him and wiped her non-existent tears.

[Grandpa, you still love me. I thought you only loved Lu Xuan now."

Lu Zhaolin, who couldn't understand what on earth was happening here, turned to look at Han Zixin who just shrugged his shoulders as if his daughter crying pitifully in front of two old men wasn't a big deal?

Was his daughter really starved here?

And why was with Old Han to claim his daughter as the granddaughter?
