We're all graduates of this school. It's summer vacation now, and we'd like to go in and take a look. Is that okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man shook his head, \"No, no. The school has rules. No outsiders are allowed to enter the campus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not even for graduates?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan retreated helplessly, shrugging at the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai looked at Chen Fan with a schadenfreude expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Fan, failed, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You'd have to be a ghost to get in like that. Watch me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he swaggered over to the security guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandpa, do us a favor. We'll just go in for a quick look around and leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he mysteriously pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and tried to stuff it into the old man's pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a little gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go away, go away!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man waved Guo Shuai away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't try that with me. I don't smoke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don't leave, I'll call the school office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai retreated with a sheepish look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miscalculation, this old guy actually doesn't smoke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This comment made everyone burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Gao Xiaohu, who was trying hard to look cool on the side, almost couldn't hold back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What now? Should we climb over the wall?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai looked at Chen Fan, \"From the old spot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu was curious: \"What old spot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan explained with a smile: \"In the past, Guo Shuai and I would occasionally climb over the wall at the west courtyard to go out and use the internet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah? You're going to climb over the wall to get in?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Xiaoxi beside them was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's not. Some of us are wearing skirts today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, what's there to see in this school? We've had enough of it already.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan glanced at her and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You may despise this place now, but in ten or twenty years, you'll find that everything here is the most unforgettable beautiful memory of your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan then looked at Su Ruochu: \"What do you say? Want to climb the wall?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu pursed her lips and walked towards the security room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandpa, I'm Su Ruochu from Class 7, Grade 3, graduating class of 2000. Our homeroom teacher was Wang Qiming. We'd like to go in to visit him, is that okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man looked at Su Ruochu, \"Are you really Teacher Wang's student?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu smiled sweetly, \"I wouldn't lie to you, would I?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not.\" The old man chuckled, \"You look like an honest girl, you wouldn't lie.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can go in. But remember not to run around, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man came out, opening the gate while giving a couple of reminders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We know, thank you, Grandpa.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu stood at the school gate, turning her head to smile at Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan and Guo Shuai blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai mumbled softly: \"The old guy's that age, and still can't resist a pretty face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking in the familiar campus, every blade of grass and tree was so familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though it had been three years since the college entrance exam, Chen Fan felt as if everything had just happened yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could even vaguely hear the sound of students reading aloud from distant classrooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan and Su Ruochu were feeling nostalgic, their faces full of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others, however, didn't have such feelings at all. Guo Shuai was strutting around the campus like a bandit entering a village, his eyes searching everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where's Old Wang? Do you think Old Wang is at school today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should we go to the office and give Old Wang a surprise?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan ignored this guy's antics and instead turned to Su Ruochu and asked, \"Want to go take a look at the classroom?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu looked towards the teaching building and shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are people having classes in there, let's not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Xiaoxi came over with a grin at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cousin, you were in Class 7 of Grade 3, right? I'm in Class 4 of Grade 3.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's your homeroom teacher?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You definitely don't know her, because she only transferred to No.4 High School last year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to go to the teaching building, the group could only wander around the campus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Administration building, dormitory area, library, electronic reading room, gymnasium...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's the point of the school library anyway?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai complained as they walked, \"We studied here for three years, and I still don't know what the inside of the library looks like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Except for when it opens at the beginning of each new semester to distribute new textbooks, I've never seen the library open.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan laughed, \"Even if it were open, so what? Would you actually go in and borrow books every day?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You never know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai said mysteriously in a low voice: \"I heard that the library occasionally has some rare editions that are hard to find elsewhere.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My cousin told me that he found an illustrated edition of 《Jin Ping Mei》 in their school library.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan looked helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guo-zi, you have a girlfriend now. How can you still be so thirsty?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai argued confidently, \"Having a girlfriend can't stop my thirst for knowledge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The sea of knowledge is boundless, I really want to improve myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they arrived at the playground, seeing Su Ruochu and the other two girls whispering together, Chen Fan looked at the familiar podium opposite and suddenly felt inspired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, he quickly ran towards the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where's Chen Fan going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's he up to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miaomiao was the first to notice this and couldn't help but remind Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan's retreating figure in surprise, shaking her head in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't know what Chen Fan was going to do either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under everyone's gaze, Chen Fan climbed up to the podium in one breath, then stood in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down at the few people in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai joked, \"What are you doing, Brother Fan? Preparing to give a speech under the national flag?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan, however, stared at Su Ruochu walking over from afar and suddenly shouted loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Su Ruochu from Class 7, Grade 3, I like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I like you! Su Ruochu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan's shout not only stunned Su Ruochu and the others, but even a group of sports students playing football in the distance stopped and looked over curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Fan is awesome!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai, being very supportive, put his fingers in his mouth and whistled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miaomiao and Gao Xiaoxi smiled at Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the person involved, Su Ruochu hadn't expected Chen Fan to suddenly pull such a stunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was so embarrassed that her face turned completely red, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to hide in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... come down quickly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Say yes to him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoo whoo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group of sports students in the distance also started to join in the commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan jumped down from the podium with a big laugh, then quickly walked to Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? Aren't you embarrassed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu pinched Chen Fan helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan scratched his head and grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, when I was in high school, I always had a dream. That was to shout out that I liked you in front of the whole school when I went up to receive an award someday.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unfortunately, my grades weren't good enough, so this dream was never realized.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now it's good. I've finally fulfilled that dream from back then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu blushed and lightly spat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're shameless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Xiaoxi, however, pulled Su Ruochu with a gossipy look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, cousin, so you two were dating in high school?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu glanced at Chen Fan: \"I didn't agree to date him in high school.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan immediately nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right. Your cousin wasn't easy to pursue back then, it took me a lot of effort...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Xiaoxi smiled at Chen Fan: \"If you could win over my cousin, you must be excellent too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan felt greatly gratified: \"This kid has had good taste since she was young.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Xiaohu beside them was gnashing his teeth in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy was clearly just a scumbag, why was cousin still so fond of him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guo Shuai, what are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Miaomiao shouted, and everyone noticed that Guo Shuai had also climbed up to the podium like Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy opened his arms with a deep expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miaomiao, I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, a high heel flew up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miaomiao stood on one foot below, shouting with a red face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get your ass down here right now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1474,"2026-06-05T15:06:40.703Z",1,"novelbin.me","e0dd6469acbe3d8c067fa1b1dd35c29ab5b311d340d85b1580d1973d42346bbe","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-429","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-427",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
