Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Cringey Non-mainstream Memories

After a brief conversation, Wang Yi saw through it all.

Song Yang was quick-witted and spoke well, but he was lazy and couldn't endure hardship!

If he did a small, unlaborious business, he could live quite well.

However, without capital, he could only idle around.

He'd ask his maternal grandmother about Song Yang's situation later.

If his character was acceptable, Wang Yi could hire him to sell off-size shoes.

Getting paid daily and not being tired would naturally be a great job for Song Yang!

Wang Yi could also earn money more efficiently!

Of course, if his character was problematic, then forget it.

The next morning, Wang Yi ate the noodles with a quick-fried topping his maternal grandmother cooked before taking the bus back to the county town.

Ding-dong, a text message appeared before his eyes.

[Lin Ziyi: Wang Yi, why aren't you replying to my QQ?]

"QQ?"

Only then did Wang Yi remember that his generic brand feature phone with a keypad could actually access QQ!

It was damn amazing!

But the 2-inch small screen hurt his eyes to look at!

He wondered how he managed to chat all night on his phone back then! Ridiculous!

As soon as he opened QQ, dozens of messages came rushing in.

Two were from Sun Rui, asking if he was going to driving school today.

The rest were all from Lin Ziyi, more than twenty of them!

Wang Yi didn't even look at them, directly blocking Lin Ziyi.

He then opened QQ Zone and looked at the posts he had made, the corners of his mouth twitching:

[The wind messed up your beautiful hair, stirring whose heartstrings!]

"Was this damn thing posted by me?"

Wang Yi was dumbfounded; those dead memories almost killed him!

The key thing was that many people had liked and commented below!

The most popular one was from Lin Ziyi: [My beautiful hair, your heartstrings]!

Damn me!

I can't take it anymore!

Goosebumps were all over him!

Wang Yi felt completely unwell, and quickly right-clicked to delete, afraid of others seeing it! But then he despaired! Perhaps he was quite "sick" back then; there was more than just one similar non-mainstream post!

It's over!

Too horrible to recall! Fortunately, in this era, everyone thought it was normal, even considering it quite literary.

After all, 2007-2011 were the glorious years of non-mainstream culture!

Wait another two years, when the post-90s generation grew up, they would know how unbearable those years were to look back on…

It was also fortunate that his alma mater was strict, checking hairstyles: boys couldn't cover their foreheads, and girls couldn't cover their ears.

Otherwise, in a moment of madness, getting a Funeral Love Family direct lineage hairstyle would be a definite dark history! The kind nailed to a pillar of shame!

Delete, must delete!

Forget it, too many to delete!

Tired! Let it be destroyed!

Wang Yi directly locked his entire QQ Zone! He even almost deactivated his QQ account along with it!

The past was too horrible to recall!

Afterward, Wang Yi deleted his Martian script QQ signature.

Hmm, this was much more proper.

Looking at other people's non-mainstream posts, Wang Yi just wanted to burst into laughter.

The unspoken understanding between post-80s and post-90s people meeting in the future—don't mention the non-mainstream days of yore!

A few more text messages came:

[Lin Ziyi: Wang Yi, why did you lock your QQ Zone?]

[Lin Ziyi: And you deleted our QQ signature too?]

[Lin Ziyi: Didn't we agree never to change it? Wang Yi, you've changed!]

"???"

"Our QQ signature?"

Wang Yi then remembered that when their relationship was ambiguous, their QQ signatures were paired Martian scripts!

But ever since the exam results came out, within a few days, Lin Ziyi had unilaterally changed her QQ signature!

Wang Yi understood and stopped bothering her.

This time, Wang Yi had merely changed his QQ signature first, and Lin Ziyi actually got anxious!

What?

If you can do it, why can't I?

You've been spoiled by her!

[Lin Ziyi: Wang Yi, I'll give you one minute, change it back immediately!]

[Lin Ziyi: I'm very angry, and the consequences will be severe! The kind that can't be appeased!]

"Hmph, woman! Be angry or don't be angry!"

Wang Yi shook his head and directly blocked Lin Ziyi's phone number as well! Phew, it was finally quiet.

He just couldn't understand why most women admired strength.

In his previous life, after learning that Wang Yi didn't do well on the exam, Lin Ziyi became exceptionally cold and quickly became a stranger.

But now, why was Lin Ziyi fawning over him a bit?

It was baffling!

He arrived at the driving school.

Sun Rui was already there, looking at him with a wry smile.

"Why that mischievous expression?"

Wang Yi said.

"Brother Yi, what did you do to Lin Ziyi? You made her cry!"

Sun Rui teased.

"Don't talk nonsense, what did I do? Didn't I just block her!"

"Pfft! You blocked the class beauty!"

Wu Qi, who was drinking water, directly spat it out and gave a thumbs-up:

"Brother Yi, awesome, a role model for our generation, I'll follow you from now on!"

"Alright, don't call me Brother Yi, call me Godfather from now on! My Good Big Son!"

Wang Yi laughed.

Wu Qi's face completely darkened:

"…"

"What? You don't want to? Then never mind, sigh, you don't know what you missed today!"

Wang Yi sighed and walked to the side to sit down.

Wu Qi rolled his eyes:

"Pretend, keep pretending! Acting like a wealthy bachelor!"

It wasn't until many years later, when he recalled this ordinary afternoon, that Wu Qi truly understood what he had missed!

Becoming the Good Big Son of the richest man would definitely not be a loss, but unfortunately, he missed it…

Li Xin and Lin Ziyi walked over, heading straight for Wang Yi.

They had an aggressive stance, as if coming to hold him accountable.

After the Gaokao, the five of them enrolled in Xingwang Driving School, and coincidentally, they had the same instructor.

Yesterday, Wang Yi and Lin Ziyi didn't come, so Li Xin, Sun Rui, and Wu Qi practiced Subject 3 all afternoon.

Two were scolded into social withdrawal, and one was scolded until crying!

This was the record of Instructor Qian Xingguo!

"Wang Yi, is it appropriate for you to treat Ziyi like this?"

Li Xin spoke with an attitude of defending the wronged:

"You are truly heartless!"

"???"

Wang Yi was stunned, how was he heartless?

Wasn't he just treating Lin Ziyi with the same attitude Lin Ziyi had towards him in his previous life?

In his previous life, no one called Lin Ziyi heartless, but now he was heartless?

Fairy inequality?

"Xiao Li Zi, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't speak carelessly. Lin Ziyi and I have no relationship whatsoever, don't slander me!"

Wang Yi said helplessly.

Thinking carefully, the two truly hadn't made their relationship official.

After all, they had agreed that high school studies were important, and they wouldn't date!

"Who are you calling Xiao Li Zi!"

Li Xin was a bit angry, reaching out and pinching Wang Yi.

Lin Ziyi also walked over, grabbed Wang Yi's hand, and bit down directly!

"Ah, that hurts!"

"Lin Ziyi, are you a dog?!" Wang Yi's face darkened.

"Wang Yi, I hate you!"

Lin Ziyi said coldly, turned, and walked away, no longer speaking.

"Haha, serves you right! Good bite!"

Li Xin gloated, then followed her, comforting her:

"Ziyi, don't be angry. Didn't you say before that you couldn't accept someone whose school was worse than yours? Now, this counts as him being sensible, right?"

Lin Ziyi nodded:

"You're right, I shouldn't be angry. But his indifferent attitude makes me feel stifled! Can you understand?"

"Never dated, so I don't understand."

Li Xin had been single since birth and hadn't figured things out yet!

Sun Rui leaned in mischievously:

"Brother Yi, what's it like to be bitten by the class beauty?"

Wang Yi's face darkened:

"How about I find a dog for you to try?"

"???"

Lin Ziyi was extremely angry:

"Wang Yi, you called me a dog! I'll bite you to death!"
