Chapter 6

Author: Sunflower
The moment I heard that familiar voice, I almost burst into tears from relief. "Derrick! Derrick, I'm locked inside!"

Derrick tried the door from the outside. It would not budge. "Don't panic. Wait here. I'll go get the janitor for the keys."

Just then, thunder cracked loudly across the sky. A second later, the classroom lights went out all at once.

"Ah!" I screamed, covering my ears as I crouched down on the floor.

Derrick had only taken a couple of steps away when he heard me. He ran back

    I heard that Matthias went back to the gang leader, hoping to make money again by reselling pirated discs.Instead, he found Evelyn in the man's arms, kissing him without restraint.Rage took over him. Matthias lunged at the man, and a fight broke out on the spot.The outcome was never in doubt.He was beaten badly, and with that, he lost his last chance to turn his life around.…Four years passed in the blink of an eye.I graduated from the School of Economics and Trade and smoothly stepped into my father's company, eventually taking over the business.During those same years, Derrick had been building something of his own. By the time I graduated, he was no longer just an old classmate; he had become my business partner.One evening, after a business dinner and a few too many drinks, we called a driver to take us home.The car pulled into the garage.However, the driver did not leave.He stayed seated, staring at me through the rearview mirror for a long moment before fi

    The impact was too strong. They kept rolling until Matthias's back slammed hard against a rock, forcing them to stop.That same day, he was rushed to the hospital. The initial diagnosis was a spinal fracture. From then on, he probably would not be able to do any heavy labor.The school sent Derrick and me as student representatives to visit him, carrying a fruit basket.Before we even reached the room, we could hear arguing from inside.Matthias lay there with bandages wrapped around his waist, struggling to lift his upper body. He clutched Evelyn's arm, refusing to let her leave.Evelyn looked at him with clear disgust, trying to shake him off but failing."Matthias, how many times do I have to say it before you understand? We're over."His voice was hoarse as he asked, "What about our future? Didn't we say we'd always be together?""Future?" Evelyn let out an icy laugh. "What can you even give me now? Look at yourself. You might not even have a future."Matthias still held o

    Evelyn's grades were still at the bottom, just like always. However, Matthias's drop was shocking.I had climbed 15 places. He had fallen 15.Then, he was only two ranks ahead of me.People were already looking at him differently, whispering with regret about the fall of a former top student.Matthias sat at his desk with his head lowered, a dark aura hanging over him.Suddenly…Crack!The pen in his hand snapped in two.…Soon, it was time for Derrick's competition exam.As a responsible student, I personally walked him to the entrance of the test center."Check your stuff again. Make sure you didn't forget anything," I said, reminding him.Derrick casually opened his file folder and showed me. "All set. See?"That check nearly gave us a heart attack. His admission ticket had been swapped out for a blank sheet of paper."What the hell? Which idiot did this?" Derrick shouted.Luckily, I had been worried something like this might happen, so I had printed extra copies in a

    A genius was valuable, sure. However, our school had never been short on geniuses. Judging by what Matthias was doing then, he was acting more like an idiot than anything else.From that day on, Matthias really did stop attending classes and stayed home with Evelyn. However, instead of softening the teachers, his actions turned him into a joke among the students."Matthias actually stopped coming to school for Evelyn. That's so romantic!""Romantic? It's senior year. This is just insane.""I saw him after school the other day. He was in an alley with Evelyn and a bunch of sketchy guys, smoking.""No way. Has the former top student fallen that far?""He hasn't been to class in forever. I wonder if he can still keep his genius title.""The mock exams are coming up soon. I'm so nervous."Derrick poked me from the side. "So, mock exams. Feeling confident?"Of course, I was. Even if I felt a little nervous inside, I could not show it.I answered seriously, "Don't worry, Coach. I'l

I screamed, covering my ears as I crouched down on the floor.Derrick had only taken a couple of steps away when he heard me. He ran back immediately and, without thinking, kicked the door open.Dim emergency lights from the hallway spilled into the room."Come on." Derrick held out his hand to me.It was still raining outside. We shared one umbrella as we walked, neither of us speaking. The silence felt awkward."Were you here to grab something?" I blurted out, just to say something.Derrick held up the book in his hand. It turned out to be a math competition workbook.He laughed a little. "Kind of embarrassing, but I staye

    Over time, the two of them actually started dating.In my previous life, to help Matthias do well on his exams, I bought him an endless supply of supplements. Whatever practice papers or materials he needed, I never once said no.In the end, Matthias got into Kingswell University just like he wanted, yet he credited everything to his talent.I was honestly curious whether this so-called genius could really balance love and studying at the same time.One day, I walked into the water fountain to fill my bottle and accidentally caught them kissing. Matthias had his back to me, bent slightly as he wrapped Evelyn tightly in his arms, his whole presence calm and restrained. Evelyn looked at me over his shoulder, her eyes glistening. She even let out a soft, deliberate murmur and raised her brows at me.Unfortunately for them, that same day, the dean caught Matthias and Evelyn together.Our homeroom teacher stormed off with Matthias to the office. Even from far away, I could hear him si
