Thorny Black Rose

  Li Yifan is usually ordinary in class, although he made a comeback in this final exam, but his usual image of being down-to-earth and honest for more than a year can't be changed overnight.

  Originally, when Dong Qichang and they said to bet a round, Yue Ling already felt very surprised, but now Li Yifan actually stood in the swimming pool with his head up and told Dong Qichang that he wanted to play a big one, such momentum really couldn't help but make Yue Ling feel surprised.

  Dong Qichang and Gao Junzhe attended elementary and middle school, but they didn't attend the same school. However, Yue Ling and Li Yifan walked together all the way, always in the same class. As for their family situation, Yue Ling was clearer than anyone else.

  His parents were ordinary people, although they had opened a small restaurant at home in the past two years and their living environment had improved somewhat. However, he usually didn't have fifty yuan on him, so where did he get the guts to dare gamble with Dong Qichang and the others? Now, Yue Ling was really unsure.

  Li Yifan took off his swimming cap, revealing a head of half-long hair that stuck to his skull. His originally ordinary-looking face had somehow become extraordinary, with high cheekbones, a pointed chin, and a straight nose bridge. A pair of large eyes shone with a hint of spirituality, and the eyelids flickered, making them sparkle even more. The white skin beneath seemed to glow, and the red lips appeared to possess a breathtaking beauty that could startle one's heart.

  The afternoon sunlight passing through the frosted glass of the swimming pool roof became soft and shone on Li Yifan's face. At this time, from the side, his profile had a Greek sculptural beauty, with clear-cut edges. When did Li Yifan become so handsome?

  This feeling is just like that ordinary and unremarkable ugly duckling from before, suddenly transforming into a white swan.

  Suddenly, Yue Ling felt that Li Yi Fan was so strange to her. Seven years of classmates, she didn't even know when this boy had undergone such a transformation.

  Whether from appearance or behavior, he has become so strange and distant.

  "Alright, you go ahead and say it, how do you want to bet?"

  Dong Qichang looked down at Li Yifan in the swimming pool, this guy was actually courting death, originally he still wanted to lead him step by step, but unexpectedly he actually jumped up and came to send himself to death, well then he would help him out, push him a bit.

  "One hundred at a time, I think it's still manageable."

  For fifty bucks, Li Yifan really looked down on it. Chen Peng, who was next to him, quietly pulled Li Yifan's hand underwater. Today he only brought a few swimming vouchers and buffet coupons, with only a dozen or so yuan in cash on him. Not to mention one hundred, even fifty he didn't have.

  Li Yifan's swimming skills are good, he believes, but how good they actually are, he hasn't personally verified. What if they lose later? Neither of them has the money to pay up.

  Li Yifan patted his old friend's hand lightly and gave him a reassuring look, Chen Peng could only swallow back the words that had reached the tip of his tongue.

  "Alright, one hundred yuan once."

  Dong Qichang's mouth was slightly raised with a hint of mockery, one hundred yuan wasn't even enough for him to have a good time at the restaurant or KTV on an ordinary day.

  "Oh! It seems there's a good show to watch, but Old Dong only gets one hundred yuan at a time, isn't that a bit too little?"

  "That's right, this doesn't seem like your style at all?"

  "It's just that this is a bit too little, Old Dong. You know, when we go to Haagen-Dazs, we don't just get this much."

  The young masters who followed Dong Qichang began to shout loudly, apparently they knew Dong Qichang's strength, and in their eyes, Li Yifan was already a dead man.

  "Haha, that also depends on their ability, everything should be done within one's capacity. They don't have that much money, do you want them to take off their swimsuits and return the money too?"

  At this time, Dong Qichang's confidence was bursting, to know that the 100m freestyle was his strong point, generally around 1 minute and 30 seconds, and when he was fast, he could reach within 1 minute and 20 seconds. Such a result is far from comparable to the Olympic record of forty or fifty seconds, but for a seventeen-year-old amateur player like him, it's already very good.

  Just saw Li Yihua's ugly swimming posture, he didn't believe that Li Yihua could defeat him.

  Li Yifan just smiled slightly after hearing what he said and didn't say anything more.

  "If you guys are feeling bored, why don't you create some excitement for yourselves on the side? You can play among yourselves."

  Dong Qichang said with a confident face to several friends around him.

  "Come on, everyone knows your swimming skills. Just because he can beat you, does that mean we should bet on him to win? Who would buy that? No one would, are we supposed to play against ourselves?"

  Several rich young men were familiar with Dong Qichang and knew he was a good swimmer, so at this time they didn't take Li Yifan seriously.

  "I'll play with you guys, whatever size you open, I'll take on a dish of that size."

  At this time, a soft and sweet voice suddenly came from under the swimming pool. A group of people shifted their gaze, and when they saw the person in the swimming pool, several rich boys next to Dong Qichang immediately whistled.

  Li Yifan was also surprised when he heard the voice beside him. He turned around and took a look, just in time to see a girl wearing a black swimsuit next to him, taking off her swim cap and shaking out her long hair.

  Among the dripping water droplets, he seemed to see a black rose in full bloom!

  What is she doing here? When Li Yifan saw the face of the person next to him, he felt a little surprised. This world was really small enough that he could see her here.

  In Li Yifan's high school career, in his class of three, if Tang Tian was a proud and sacred snow lotus, then the only one who could echo with her in the whole grade would be this thorny black rose in front of him, whose name is Wang Huan, also a class flower of Class Three.

  Yue Ling is also very beautiful and can be called the class flower in Class 3, but she is just a class flower-level beauty. Compared to Tang Tian and Wang Huan who are not only suitable for being class flowers but even have the potential to be evaluated as school flower-level beauties, there is still a certain gap.

  Tang Xiang is proud and aloof, usually not giving any male student in the class a second glance, to the point where even many female students think she's a girl who is hard to get close to.

  Wang Huan and Tang Tian are two extremes, she is the kind of absolutely passionate and outgoing girl, her figure is relatively tall, about 1.7 meters or more, and her chest is exceptionally full, usually likes sports, can run and jump, usually has a tomboy style.

  Li Yifan can remember very clearly that in their high school days, their class won the championship several times at the inter-school sports meet, all thanks to Wang Huan and her female teammates' outstanding performance.

  Unlike the traditional aesthetic view of Chinese people, Wang Huan has a strong physique and wheat-colored skin, a pair of majestic tiger eyebrows, under which is a pair of sparkling and shining eyes, high-bridged nose, small mouth, and a melon-seed-shaped face, often giving people a visually stunning impact.

  She is also a beauty that meets the aesthetic standards of Westerners, healthy, outgoing and lively in personality, loves to talk and laugh, and is also an athlete on the sports field.

  In her previous life, Li Yifan didn't have a few words with Tang Tian in high school for three years. However, she had one or two encounters with this thorny black rose, but that was also when she was serving as the logistics staff at the sports meeting and had the opportunity to say a word or two to her.

  This girl is a rose with thorns. In high school, many boys only dared to admire her from afar and didn't dare to tease her because of her bold personality. Whether they were young masters or rich heirs, none of them dared to provoke her easily.

  What's more, she has an extraordinary background!

  Li Yifan couldn't have imagined that this girl, who had nothing to do with him in her past life, would suddenly appear here at this time and have such an unexpected encounter with him?
