The examinees that were admitted this time were divided into four classes. According to the ranking from high to low, the classes were: Heaven Class A, Heaven Class B, Earth Class A and Earth Class B.

Gu Dashun got the second place in the exam and of course entered the Heaven Class A. On the other hand, Xiao Liulang got the second place to the last and entered the Earth Class B.

As for Gu Xiaoshun, he was also assigned to Earth Class B.

Originally, Gu Dashun thought Gu Xiaoshun saved a big shot, but in the end, he could only get people into the worst class. It seemed that the other party wasn’t much of a big deal in Tianxiang Academy.

"That's the Earth Class B. Go ahead." After showing Gu Ershun the way, Gu Dashun turned around and made his way to the Heaven Class A.

Since childhood, Gu Ershun had always dreamt of going to school like Dashun. Now that he finally got his wish, he felt very elated.

However, he was a little displeased to think that he and Xiao Liulang were in the same class. Although he didn't know much about the meaning of “Heaven Class A” or “Earth Class B”, Xiao Liulang was the second to the last in the rankings. What kind of class could he go to?

Later, he must go find that Lord that Gu Xiaoshun saved and ask him to transfer him to Gu Dashun's class!contemporary romance

Gu Ershun naturally thought that there wasn’t anything wrong with this idea.

He glanced contemptuously at the students present, then raised his chin and was about to go in. Suddenly, the teacher in the classroom said, "Who are you?"

Gu Ershun answered, "I'm a new student, Gu Ershun."

The teacher stopped looking at him upon hearing his answer and said indifferently, "Where did you come from to sneak into this class? This class has no such person. Get out of here."

Gu Ershun was stunned.

All the students focused their eyes on him so that Gu Ershun flushed with embarrassment, "I... I am..."

"Has Gu Xiaoshun arrived yet?" The teacher interrupted him.

The classroom was quiet.

"Has Gu Xiaoshun arrived yet?" "The teacher asked again.

The students began to whisper to each other.

Gu Xiaoshun, Gu Ershun. It was clear what the relationship between the two was, and yet the teacher didn’t even ask him...

The students continued to mutter between themselves, and the way they looked at Gu Ershun became even more thought-provoking

Utterly embarrassed, Gu Ershun went to find Gu Dashun, expecting Gu Dashun to solve this problem for him, but unexpectedly, class A had already started.

Gu Ershun had nowhere to go. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

When classes ended, Gu Dashun was called out by the teacher of his own class.

"Teacher Chen." Gu Dashun saluted respectfully.

Teacher Chen thought for a moment before he asked him, "You know about your brother’s admission to the academy, right?"

Gu Dashun nodded his head, "I know that a steward of the academy personally sent my brother's admission documents to the village. May I ask… Is there something wrong?"

Teacher Chen frowned and said, "The one who was admitted was Gu Xiaoshun, but the one who came was Gu Ershun. Did you know?”

As soon as Gu Dashun saw Teacher Chen's expression, he knew something went wrong. His eyes flashed with meaning and he looked down, "I didn’t know. I left home first. Those two are my younger brothers from Second Uncle’s family." [T/N: This might be late but, in ancient China, cousins of the same surnames were more like brothers and sisters especially when you all live in the same residence.]

"I see. Go back to class first." Teacher Chen said.

"Teacher, my younger brother..." Gu Dashun looked at Teacher Chen with an uneasy look on his face.

Teacher Chen waved his hand and said, "It’s alright. It’s the business of your Second Uncle's family and has nothing to do with you. You can go back to class now. Right, you did well in the exam and the Dean is very optimistic about you."

Gu Dashun went back to class.

He looked at the direction of the hallway.

Gu Ershun was too stupid, he should not have said anything.

…...

After going to the market, Gu Jiao went straight to the former stall. Everyone seemed to know that she was going to sell mountain goods here, so they had reserved this spot for her early.

Gu Jiao brought freshly picked mushrooms and dried black wood ears.

"Is this edible? Is it not poisonous?" Asked the auntie who sold sweet potatoes as she pinched a piece of black wood ears.

"Goods that I sell are edible." Gu Jiao replied.

After being exposed to the sun and dried up, black wood ears had already lost their tannin and porphyrin and would not cause any toxic reactions.

The aunt who sold sweet potatoes believed her and asked, "Can I still exchange sweet potatoes with you?"

Gu Jiao nodded, "En."

Most of the black wood ears and mushrooms in the basket had been traded for cheap goods by the vendors nearby. Only the remaining small portion was really sold to passers-by.

Gu Jiao grabbed the back basket with one hand.

The basket had radishes, sweet potatoes, squash, pumpkin and everything else you could think of, and yet such a heavy basket was easily carried by her.

The crowd watched dumbfounded as she walked out of the market.

Gu Jiao didn’t return to the village, but rather went to a dusty alley.

Xue Ningxiang also came to the market today.

Her mother-in-law’s chronic rheumatism in the leg had acted up again. She couldn’t afford to go to the town physician, so she had to go to the market to buy some medicinal herbs from a travelling physician.

After she bought the medicinal herbs, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar figure on her way home.

She looked intently at the other party and made sure that she had seen it correctly. Her doubts grew.

"Why is she here? Why is she going to such a place?"

Behind that alley wasn’t a good place to go. As far as Xue Ningxiang knew, there were gambling houses, brothels and shady workshops there...

Xue Ningxiang couldn't figure out what Gu Jiao was doing there.

Had she been cheated or...

Xue Ningxiang frowned and quickly followed.

However, as soon as she passed through the alley, Gu Jiao disappeared. Opposite her was a big gambling house, and on the left was a brothel. She didn’t know what the building on the right side was, however, mournful and shrill screams could be heard from there from time to time. Some people with a bloody nose and a swollen face had even been thrown out, then they vomited blood and fell to the ground, unable to get up again.

Xue Ningxiang was so frightened that she quickly turned around to go back, but then she was blocked in the alley by several hooligans.

"Yo, where did this little lady come from? Really pretty, ah!"

"Exactly! Why don’t you accompany these several big brothers to have fun?"

As the two men at the front talked, they stretched out their wandering hands toward Xue Ningxiang at the same time. Although the other two behind didn’t move, they also let out a lewd laughter.

The four of them swarmed around her so that she couldn’t escape.

Xue Ningxiang tried to scream for help, but one of the men covered her mouth.

Apparently, this wasn’t the first time the four of them had done this kind of thing as they worked perfectly together. One person covered her mouth while the other two lifted her up, and then all of them began to touch her evilly.

Xue Ningxiang was unable to scream and unable to move. Tears of despair welled up in her eyes!

Just then, a cold voice came from behind several people, "Hey, get out of the way."

Several men were having fun when they suddenly heard a woman's voice. They were secretly delighted. Someone had delivered herself to their door again?

But when they looked around, they saw a little girl with a red patch on her face.

Forget that her face was ugly, but even her body was thin and had yet to develop well.

Several people suddenly lost interest in pressing her down. The man covering Xue Ningxiang’s mouth shouted, "Get lost child!"

"I said, get out of the way."

Her voice was soft and her tone had a trace of indifference, but somehow a strange chill filled everyone's hearts upon hearing it.

"Ha." The same man covering Xue Ningxiang's mouth sneered disdainfully. Then she let go of Xue Ningxiang and walked towards Gu Jiao.

He threw a punch at Gu Jiao!

Xue Ningxiang couldn’t bear to look directly at the scene and closed her eyes!

Kacha!

"Ah——"

The sound of a bone breaking and a miserable scream startled everyone.

Without giving anyone a chance to react, Gu Jiao grabbed the collar of the next man and slammed him against the wall, knocking him unconscious on the spot.

The other two rushed at her, but they didn’t even touch a piece of her clothes when their vital part was kicked in succession by her. The next moment, they were lying on the ground, unable to get up.

At that moment, the first man who had fallen to the ground suddenly got up and swung a brick towards the back of Gu Jiao’s head.

Everyone But Me Is Reborn

Her father is a coward and senselessly filial. Her mother is weak and gullible. Her elder brother is a wastrel.

When she married into the Wangfu, she suffered and was coldly treated. And by the time she was in labour, she was fated to die with the unborn child in her belly.

This was supposed to be Ning Nuan's life.

However this time, everyone but her is reborn.

Ning Nuan is at a loss. She felt that her dad has suddenly become the pillar of the family, her mother’s temper became fierce, and even her elder brother, who would only walk the dogs and play with birds all day, has begun picking up books and reading them carefully.

There is also that juvenile that shows up at the wall of her courtyard everyday, calling her “Ah Nuan, Ah Nuan” with an honest face.
