Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 135 - 134: Gu Xiaoqing’s Educational Work
Indeed, it’s a big table full of dishes.
A braised fish, a chicken stewed with mushrooms, a plate of cooked meat, two cold dishes - cold mixed fungus and smashed cucumber, along with a big bowl of rice and a bowl of seaweed egg soup.
Gu Xiaoqing felt a bit embarrassed.
This big lunch clearly showed He Cui’s meticulous preparation, and coming here uninvited did indeed cause them quite a bit of inconvenience.
He Cui called out to several children.
"Hurry up, hurry up, pick up your chopsticks and eat."
She served each person a bowl of rice, packed firmly, fearing they wouldn’t have enough to eat.
Gu Xiaoqing didn’t hold back either, she was hungry.
From yesterday to today, the food at the small restaurant really tasted average. She was indeed hungry.
So she ate heartily and without pretense.
He Cui really liked it, frequently picking up food with her chopsticks to put in Gu Xiaoqing’s bowl.
"Eat more, eat more."
In her heart, she said this child clearly is an honest one, no pretense here.
Lots of girls in this compound are all picky when they eat, holding a bowl as if counting grains.
They even call it dieting.
Bai Zhongyuan was dumbfounded seeing Gu Xiaoqing eat food so heartily.
Was this rough-mannered girl really that graceful and refined Gu Xiaoqing he just saw?
Looks can be deceiving indeed.
His sisters, when they eat, compete on eating less, eating more gracefully it seems.
All just taking small bites without making a sound or opening their mouths wide.
Looking at Gu Xiaoqing eating so much and taking big bites, but she didn’t make any sound, exuding a sense of genuine beauty.
This is what eating is.
Bai Zhongyuan couldn’t help but see Gu Xiaoqing with newfound respect.
To be honest, Bai Zhongyuan’s first impression of Gu Xiaoqing was just based on Fang Shaonan’s remarks.
About the thrilling incident with the traffickers involving the girl.
He once thought these were deeds only a wild, rambunctious tomboy running around could accomplish.
Which fit all his fantasies.
But meeting Gu Xiaoqing, she was so cultured, neither arrogant nor servile, well-mannered, elegantly polite. Despite looking plain, distinctly different from city kids, this girl was genuine, no facade, truly like someone walking in from another world.
Still such a lively person, so the legends about this girl’s bravery like a soldier were a burst of heroism, completing this deed with such immense courage.
Saving so many.
Bai Zhongyuan somewhat understood why he was always thinking about Gu Xiaoqing.
Just meeting this girl today made the visit worthwhile.
After the meal, He Cui cleaned up the dishes.
Gu Xiaoqing wanted to help but was stopped by He Cui, directing the children to chat elsewhere, since Gu Xiaoqing rarely visited, her son always mentioned her. A good chat would fulfill her son’s wishes.
Fang Shaonan took Gu Xiaoqing to his room.
Bai Zhongyuan certainly wasn’t leaving.
Why would he leave?
He wouldn’t want to miss out on such an interesting girl. Bai Zhongyuan wasn’t willing to leave.
Fang Shaonan gave Bai Zhongyuan a glare, this guy had no sense, already had his meal, yet wasn’t leaving.
Bai Zhongyuan was smug, his expression was the reply.
The gentleman likes to join in the fun.
Fang Shaonan ground his teeth in frustration.
Gu Xiaoqing looked around Fang Shaonan’s room, filled with models of guns and military vehicles, evidently a military enthusiast.
"You’re in high school now?"
Gu Xiaoqing asked.
She wanted to know more about Fang Shaonan, the two of them previously only managed to escape without discussing personal matters.
Fang Shaonan nodded, "I study at City High School. What about you?"
"I’m in junior high, here to participate in a competition this time."
Gu Xiaoqing explained.
"How have you recovered?"
Fang Shaonan was still remorseful about Gu Xiaoqing’s injuries.
Seeing Fang Shaonan’s expression, Gu Xiaoqing knew he was still feeling guilty, so she playfully waved her arms, stretching them, "See, I’ve recovered really well. I could still fight those traffickers again now."
Making Fang Shaonan burst out laughing.
Transitioning back, Fang Shaonan said, "Then you should come to City High School later. I’ll ask Dad to talk to Uncle Fang. If he doesn’t agree, I’ll run away from home."
This guy wanted to make it up to Gu Xiaoqing.
In Fang Shaonan’s heart, he believed he failed his duty to protect the weak, causing Gu Xiaoqing’s injuries through his inaction. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Outside the open door, He Cui, carrying a plate of fruit, frowned. This kid says anything he likes, thinking City High School is easy to get into. Even Fang Shaonan’s father had to work hard to get him in.
If it weren’t for two families being old comrades, and Mr. Fang’s current position, they might not have agreed.
Already starting to act crazily.
He Cui, suppressing her displeasure, wanted to go in to stop Fang Shaonan from continuing his reckless talk.
Gu Xiaoqing was just a rural kid, and if she believed she could come to the city to study, what if she clung to their family and it became hard to resolve?
After all, there was the so-called debt of gratitude from the rescue intertwined.
If outsiders learned of it, they’d say their family was ungrateful.
Just as she was about to take a step, she heard Gu Xiaoqing’s voice.
Soft yet gentle, full of feminine grace, yet carrying deep resolve and determination.
"You better not act recklessly. City High School, I do want to study there, but I want to rely on my own efforts to get in, not by using connections or favors. I won’t take them. Besides, I’m planning to take my entry exams next year, so don’t disrupt my plans. I’m a top student."
Gu Xiaoqing lightly blocked Fang Shaonan’s words, this kid remains a child, threatening to run away without facing consequences.
Fang Shaonan said indignantly, "How can you be like this? I meant well! Truly a case of good intentions mistaken for livers and lungs."
Feeling somewhat aggrieved.
Gu Xiaoqing chuckled and patted Fang Shaonan’s shoulder, "Helping people isn’t about imposing help. You should help when people need it, but if they don’t need your help, forcing it isn’t called help, but insisting on it becomes antagonizing.
Think about it, is that making sense? Besides, you’re grown up now, but you threaten to run away frequently. I feel sorry for your mom, raising such a thankless kid. Never thinking of your parents’ hardship or considering adults’ difficulties, always acting on impulse. That’s not being a man, that’s being reckless."(To be continued.
