Reborn as a woman in a superpowered society: My father remarried and gained an older sister.

A series of foundational courses, including basic education in literature, history and philosophy, study of Xia Dynasty classics, study of Western classics, literature retrieval in the humanities, and academic paper writing.

Each course has a corresponding number of credits.

To graduate successfully, credits from required courses alone are not enough; elective courses are also necessary.

However, elective courses don't start until the second year, so there's no rush.

Before the formal start of classes, Gu Qing's class also appointed class officers.

Jiang Ziran, who had long intended to run for class monitor, unsurprisingly won the position with a very high number of votes.

Gu Qing did not run for any class officer positions.

Besides the side hustle plan I had prepared, the pressure of studying was also a factor.

High school can be built up through accumulation, but now he is about to face a completely new curriculum.

Even if some courses are interconnected with his existing knowledge, he still needs to study more.

After four classes on the first day, it was already afternoon.

Perhaps because of the heavy rain this morning, the temperature is now very comfortable.

"Gu Qing, what are your thoughts on the club?"

After class, Jiang Ziran, who was walking out of the classroom with Gu Qing, asked.

"I'm not considering it for now," Gu Qing replied.

"Then you'd better consider it. If you join in your freshman year, you can run for minister or vice minister in your sophomore year. If you get an award, you can get extra credits!" Jiang Ziran said.

"correct!"

Jiang Ziran suddenly asked again, "If you're not interested in clubs, would you like to join the student council with me?"

"I don't need to consider that. I feel like I definitely won't have enough time."

Gu Qing refused the offer to join the student council without hesitation.

Speaking of the student union, it seems that during military training, the student union president tried to contact him under some pretext.

Gu Qing had initially assumed the other party would try to ambush him again, but to his surprise, they hadn't shown up yet, which saved him some trouble.

However, although the student council president didn't come to stop Gu Qing, there were other people there.

Seeing Su Xiyue standing at the school gate with a silly grin on her face, Gu Qing walked over.

Just as he stepped through the school gate, a surprised female voice suddenly rang out from behind him:

"Murong Qing!"

128. The so-called past

A familiar yet unfamiliar name came from behind.

Gu Qing paused slightly in mid-air before landing steadily.

He turned around, his eyes filled with doubt.

Noticing this, Su Xiyue jogged a few steps forward, came to Gu Qing's side, and looked in the direction he was looking.

Before me stood a beautiful female college student, her expression filled with surprise.

"I had some suspicions when I was reading the forum posts, and I never expected it to actually be you!"

The female college student quickly stepped forward, looked at Gu Qing, and spoke with a hint of excitement in her voice.

Gu Qing looked at the newcomer, her delicate brows furrowing slightly as she began to think rapidly.

A few seconds later, a young, innocent face slowly matched the person in front of it.

"My surname is Gu now. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Gu Qing spoke in this way, his words revealing undisguised indifference.

Su Xiyue, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but move closer to Gu Qing.

She could sense that Gu Qing seemed to feel some disgust towards the person in front of her.

Based on her understanding of Gu Qing, unless his bottom line was crossed, Gu Qing would not express his emotions so clearly.

"Don't you remember me? I'm your cousin, Murong Yi. It's been five or six years since we last saw each other, hasn't it...?"

The girl in front of him seemed eager to get close to Gu Qing, but Gu Qing turned and left without hesitation.

Su Xiyue glanced at the girl who claimed to be Gu Qing's cousin a few more times, her eyes thoughtful, before quickly following behind Gu Qing.

The girl named Murong Yi watched Gu Qing's departing figure, reached out her hand, but did not chase after him.

……

On her way home, Gu Qing stopped by the market to buy some ingredients.

Sensing that Gu Qing didn't want to talk, Su Xiyue silently became the mover.

Although the girl who called herself Murong Yi didn't say much, she brought a lot of information.

She knew that Gu Qing's original surname was not Gu; it was only after her uncle's divorce that she changed it to her father's surname.

It's truly unexpected that Gu Qing's original name was Murong Qing, which is also a rather uncommon surname.

Gu Qing never mentioned the past, and although Su Xiyue was a little curious, she wouldn't be foolish enough to ask.

However, she could sense that perhaps Gu Qing's past was not all happy memories.

The two returned home, changed into slippers, and Gu Qing went straight into the kitchen.

Su Xiyue couldn't offer much help, but she kept hovering around Gu Qing.

One minute she'd be making an excuse to take yogurt from the fridge, the next she'd be coming to the kitchen to wash her hands.

Seeing this, Gu Qing had no choice but to stop what he was doing, looked at Su Xiyue, and sighed:

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

This is a lie.

Su Xiyue gave her judgment immediately.

Gu Qing's coldness is a cool coldness, not a cold indifference; the two are completely different.

In the past, Gu Qing only gave people the feeling of being distant, but today at the school gate, he showed a rare kind of disgust.

Is it the person Murong Yi that you hate, or is it the past that this name evokes?

Su Xiyue believes the latter is more likely.

"Have a drink."

Su Xiyue didn't say anything, but handed her a glass of water.

Gu Qing glanced at Su Xiyue, then took the water glass and took a sip.

"I forgot to mention, I just used this cup, hehe!"

Su Xiyue then smiled foolishly.

"Stop loitering around in front of me and get back to your work!"

Gu Qing gave her a sharp, unfriendly glare.

Murong Yi's sudden appearance did indeed cause a great disturbance in Gu Qing's emotions.

Just as Su Xiyue guessed, he didn't have any aversion to Murong Yi himself.

However, the name Murong Qing, or even the surname Murong, made him feel somewhat disgusted and nauseous.

Never expect a gambling addict who has lost everything to still have any sense of reason.

The divorce between Gu Yuan and Gu Qing's biological father was not peaceful; in fact, it was quite tragic.

This is why Gu Qing has a deep-seated aversion to that family.

However, these are all things of the past, and there's no need to bring them up again and cause unnecessary distress.

As for Su Xiyue, for some reason, she seems to be growing up very quickly, and her eyesight has improved.

The meal for two was prepared quickly.

Su Changqin provided a fairly high standard of living expenses, and considering that Su Xiyue was still developing, Gu Qing adopted a standard of three dishes and one soup.

When the food was served, Gu Qing ladled out two bowls of soup to let them cool, while Su Xiyue began serving rice.

The two sat facing each other and began to eat.

Perhaps it was because the food in the school cafeteria wasn't very good, or perhaps it was because she hadn't eaten Gu Qing's cooking in a long time, but the girl had a particularly good appetite.

After Gu Qing finished eating and started drinking soup, Su Xiyue cleaned up all the leftover food on the plate.

Finally, feeling unsatisfied, he simply turned the rice upside down onto the plate containing the vegetables.
