37: Chapter 37 Breathtaking Beauty

Zhao Yang looked toward the ticket gate.

He saw a girl with a delicate and pretty face, struggling to carry a suitcase as she passed through the ticket gate.

The suitcase looked very worn, but it had been kept very clean.

The girl walked into the waiting room with a natural expression and found a corner to sit down.

Looking at the girl before him, a slight trance flickered in Zhao Yang's eyes.

Zhao Shiyu...

The top student in her grade at Changcheng No. 1 High School, and also the most beautiful girl at Changcheng No. 1 High School—one could even say without a single peer.

Although Song Xi was indeed worthy of being called a school beauty, in the eyes of all the boys at Changcheng No. 1 High School, the title of school beauty actually suited Zhao Shiyu better.

The reason was very simple.

Clothing and appearance naturally affect one's attractiveness.

Due to family circumstances, the clothes Zhao Shiyu wore were basically all old, and sometimes she would even wear boys' clothes.

It couldn't be called attractive at all.

And as for her appearance.

Zhao Shiyu went completely bare-faced every day, and her hair was just casually tied up.

But Song Xi was different. Song Xi was indeed pretty, but the clothes she wore every day were carefully selected and very exquisite.

She would also wear light makeup every day, and she would even have special hairstyles done to enhance her overall appearance.

With so much careful styling, Song Xi could only barely manage to match Zhao Shiyu's beauty, and they were both called school beauties.

Who was superior and who was inferior was naturally very easy to distinguish.

"She's so beautiful!"

Wang Ming watched Zhao Shiyu for quite a while before slowly withdrawing his gaze. He looked at Zhao Yang beside him and sighed as he spoke.

"Compared to that woman Song Xi, I truly admire Zhao Shiyu. I think most people in our school like Zhao Shiyu more!"

Hearing Wang Ming's words, Zhao Yang was immediately speechless and rolled his eyes at Wang Ming.

"Tell me something everyone doesn't already know!"

"Hehe!"

Wang Ming chuckled for a moment.

"By the way, I heard that Zhao Shiyu scored nearly 700 points this year, ranking in the top 50 in the province! I heard that admissions officers from Peking University and Shuimu University went to her house! That's amazing!"

Wang Ming said with emotion.

"That's normal. She was never bad at exams. In our school's two elite classes, she could be considered to have been crushing us with ease all along!"

Zhao Yang knew a bit about Zhao Shiyu. This girl's grades at Changcheng No. 1 High School had always been far ahead.

Many schools wanted to poach her.

But Changcheng No. 1 High School protected her very well; after all, a student who could score in the top 50 in the province only appeared in Changcheng No. 1 High School once every few years.

Zhao Yang and Wang Ming were chatting.

At this moment, Zhao Yang's thoughts gradually drifted away.

Zhao Shiyu!

This girl was no simple person; she could be called the most promising student in the entire Changcheng No. 1 High School.

Before his rebirth, Zhao Yang had seemed quite successful, having become a middle manager at a major chip company, young and promising.

But Zhao Shiyu was even more extraordinary. Not only did she graduate early with her doctorate, but as soon as she graduated, she was invited by a certain major company to join their laboratory with a high annual salary of one million.

At an entrepreneur forum, Zhao Yang had met Zhao Shiyu.

The two of them had even chatted a few times.

At that time, Zhao Yang had even secretly developed feelings for Zhao Shiyu.

However, the Zhao Yang of that time also understood that he and Zhao Shiyu were impossible!

They were simply not on the same level.

She was a favored daughter of heaven, a top-tier genius in their elite circle.

He was just a middle-level manager; even with some connection when they first entered the circle, wanting to be together?

It was practically a pipe dream.

Unexpectedly, after being reborn, the first time he saw Zhao Shiyu would be under these circumstances...

While Zhao Yang's mind was drifting.

"Son, son!"

Father Zhao's voice came from the side.

Zhao Yang quickly gathered his thoughts and looked at Father Zhao in front of him.

"Ticket checking has already started. Since you've decided to go to Beijing alone, then so be it! Your mother and I won't see you to the platform! Indeed, you've grown up! It's time to be independent!"

Father Zhao's eyes were full of reluctance, and he smiled as he spoke to Zhao Yang.

"Alright, Dad!"

Zhao Yang nodded at Father Zhao and said.

After speaking, Father Zhao, Mother Zhao, and the nearby Father Wang and Mother Wang left together.

Zhao Yang and Wang Ming carried their luggage to the ticket gate.

Zhao Shiyu, who was nearby, also came over.

She took an extra look at Zhao Yang. Clearly, she felt Zhao Yang looked familiar and guessed he was a schoolmate, but Zhao Shiyu did not speak.

They came out of the ticket gate and onto the platform.

Zhao Yang and Zhao Shiyu arrived at the same platform to wait for the train.

At this moment, Zhao Yang finally couldn't help it.

"Are you also in Car 13?"

Zhao Yang asked, looking at Zhao Shiyu curiously.

Zhao Shiyu hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Do we know each other?"

Zhao Shiyu's red lips parted slightly, and a sweet, clear voice sounded softly.

Wang Ming's eyes lit up, and his gaze instantly shifted from Zhao Shiyu to the Zhao Yang beside him.

"You probably don't know me, but I do know you. Let's get to know each other. Classmate Zhao Shiyu, my name is Zhao Yang, from Class 17."

Zhao Yang did not act timidly like other high school students; instead, he introduced himself to Zhao Shiyu in a natural and poised manner.

"Oh, I've heard of you."

After saying that, Zhao Shiyu remained silent.

Zhao Yang did not speak to Zhao Shiyu again. Before his rebirth, he was already over thirty and had been working in society for many years.

Naturally, he could not be shy like other boys his age.

He turned his head to look at Wang Ming beside him and asked, as if no one else was around.

"By the way, Wang Ming, after getting off the train, will there be a bus from your school to pick you up?"

"Yes."

Wang Ming was not as natural as Zhao Yang. In fact, for any boy at Changcheng No. 1 High School, standing next to Zhao Shiyu, it was impossible to act natural.

There was no helping it; Zhao Shiyu was too beautiful and too pure.

She was like a lotus flower rising from the mud without being stained.

Her grades were good, too.

Except for her poor family situation, one could hardly find any flaws; she was like a fairy descended from heaven.

That cold and aloof temperament made all the students at Changcheng No. 1 High School afraid to profane her.

They wouldn't even dare to let Zhao Shiyu be the female lead in their dreams.

"I... I called the vocational college admissions department last night to ask about this."

It took a while for Wang Ming to calm down, though his tone was still a bit flustered, after all, Zhao Shiyu was standing right next to the two of them.

They were standing very close. At Changcheng No. 1 High School, no boy would dare to get this close; there weren't even many girls who could get within two meters of Zhao Shiyu.

As the girl with the best grades at Changcheng No. 1 High School, who was guaranteed to get into Qinghua or Peking University and even had a slim chance of ranking in the top few in the province, the school's protection of Zhao Shiyu was very thorough.
