Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 464 I admit that I am indeed 'exceptionally gifted' in certain areas.

The bell finally rang, and the classroom was instantly filled with the noise of people getting up.

Ye Fan stretched and was about to call Li Yifeng and Shi Kai to go to the toilet to "relieving himself" when a tall and beautiful figure precisely blocked the exit in front of his seat.

It is Su Luming.

A half-smile, a hint of inquiry, played at the corners of her lips, and her beautiful eyes seemed to pierce through Ye Fan's disguise as she stared straight at him.

Ye Fan raised an eyebrow in surprise: "What's wrong, Miss Su? What can I do for you?"

Su Luming didn't beat around the bush; he got straight to the point, his voice clear yet carrying an undeniable certainty: "That mysterious tycoon from the Jinling Auto Show who's been all over the internet, is that you?"

She tilted her head slightly and added, "Even though the photos are blurred, that figure, that way of walking, and that... feeling, it's so much like you."

Ye Fan's heart stirred slightly, but his face maintained a nonchalant expression of surprise, neither confirming nor denying it. He simply chuckled and said, "Hey, Miss Su, you flatter me too much. If I really had that kind of wealth, would I be sitting here taking classes? I'd be laughing in my sleep!"

Su Luming was clearly not so easily fooled. She took a small step closer, her probing relentless: "Come on! You're always so secretive. Tell me, how did you do it? You're so young..."

She couldn't find the right words for a moment, her eyes filled with curiosity and a hint of...admiration?

Looking at the bright and beautiful face before him, and seeing the sparkle in her eyes, Ye Fan's playful smile deepened.

He deliberately misinterpreted her meaning, leaning forward slightly and lowering his voice, which was somewhat mischievous and ambiguous: "Amazing? Hmm... I admit that I am indeed 'exceptionally gifted' and 'superbly capable' in some aspects."

His gaze swept meaningfully across Su Luming's face: "However, I wonder if it's the 'aspect' you're referring to, beautiful Su?"

"Whoosh!" Two red blushes instantly spread across Su Luming's cheeks, all the way to her ears! She was both embarrassed and annoyed, never expecting Ye Fan to steer the conversation off-topic in this way and on this occasion!

"You...you pervert!" She stomped her foot and muttered angrily, her hands unconsciously tightening around the books.

Ye Fan achieved his goal and successfully shifted the focus of the conversation.

He chuckled, and taking advantage of Su Luming's momentary daze, nimbly squeezed out from between the seats, patting Li Yifeng, who was watching the show, on the shoulder: "Let's go, Lao Li, Shi Kai, let's go relieve ourselves!"

Su Luming was left standing there, watching his dashing departing figure, feeling both angry and helpless.

Su Luming calmed his racing heart and turned to look at the quiet ancestral spirit.

She leaned closer, a hint of resentment and probing in her voice: "Zuling, when Ye Fan came back to class, didn't he tell you anything? Like... about the car or something?"

Xian Zuling raised her head, her clear eyes filled with pure confusion: "Luming? No. He just asked me if I'd been eating on time these past few days, that the fridge was almost empty, and that we should go grocery shopping together after class."

Her answer was simple and honest, with absolutely no information related to being a "super-rich" person.

"Oh...I see." Su Luming responded with some disappointment and didn't ask any further questions.

But her conviction remained undiminished.

That confidence and sense of control that emanates from his very being, along with the occasional display of composure far beyond that of his peers... it's definitely him!

As Su Luming watched Ye Fan disappear through the classroom door, his gaze gradually shifted from shame and annoyance to a strong, burning desire for conquest.

His excellence and his stature far exceeded my previous expectations...

A clear and bold thought grew wildly in her heart, eventually turning into a silent declaration: No! How can I let someone else beat me to such a dazzling man? Su Luming, from now on, he is your target! I'm going to pursue him!

However, this confident and ready-to-"strike" beauty from Soochow University was unaware that the "dazzling target" in her eyes had already regarded her as an important pawn in his grand plan.

Even the entertainment company he is currently building, which embodies the dreams of Han Yiying and Feng Timo, has a name that cleverly reverses her name, Su Luming—"Minglu Culture."

Is this merely a coincidental, quirky act, or a veiled declaration of possession? Only Ye Fan himself knows the answer. The threads of fate, unknowingly, have already intertwined and become entangled.

......

Ye Fan, Li Yifeng, and Shi Kai returned after "letting loose" with their game. Just as they stepped through the back door of the classroom, Ye Fan paused, looked at Su Luming who was still deep in thought beside his seat, and said in a casual yet familiar tone, "Beautiful Su, let's have dinner together at the Bamboo Grove Courtyard tonight. It's been a long time since we've gotten together. We'll invite Lao Li and the others along tonight."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible glint flashed in Su Luming's eyes, but he immediately curled his lip, his tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction and probing: "Oh~~ so it's a group activity? I thought someone had a change of heart and was going to treat me alone."

Ye Fan smiled and strode back to his seat. As he passed her, he slightly turned his head and whispered a meaningful remark: "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, no rush!"

These words were like a pebble thrown into a lake, creating ripples in Su Luming's heart.

While she was still pondering whether this "opportunity" was just polite talk or a hint, Ye Fan had already plopped back down next to Li Yifeng, the two of them arm in arm, continuing their "chatting" that had just been interrupted.

There's one class left before school ends.

Ye Fan idly twirled his pen, feeling that time was passing exceptionally slowly.

Cell phones in that era were nowhere near as "fun" as they are in later years; scrolling through short videos to kill time was simply a pipe dream. He could only stare blankly at the backs of the heads of the students in front of him, or at the occasional birds flying by outside the window.

Li Yifeng, standing next to him, was completely focused, fiddling with the rudimentary stock trading software on his phone screen. His brows were furrowed, his fingers swiping across several green candlestick charts, and he was muttering to himself.

"Tsk... this pullback shouldn't have happened..."

Ye Fan glanced at the "environmentally friendly" color on his screen, couldn't help but chuckle, and nudged him with his elbow: "Hey Lao Li, how about we cut our losses? We don't need the 'Nanjing University Buffett' title, do we?"

"Stop?" Li Yifeng suddenly raised his head, his face filled with the tragic determination of a warrior cutting off his own arm: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The Warren Buffett of Nanjing University is not just a name; if he can't even withstand this little storm, how will he ever establish himself in the financial world?"
