Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation-Chapter 712 - 432: Don’t Be Petty

It was past one in the afternoon, and the sun blazed down like a fiery furnace.

In the urban area, outside a shopping mall, Huang Zhongfei was at a Huawei authorized store, with decor that was simple and clean. Guided by a saleswoman, he selected the latest Huawei P6 smartphone.

The saleswoman snuck glances at Huang Zhongfei’s handsome face, offered him the best discount, and threw in a power bank and headphones as extra gifts—service was exceptionally on point.

Yu Wen accompanied Huang Zhongfei to buy his phone, her appearance suggesting she was nothing more than the young master’s maid.

Cui Yu was nearby, explaining phone features to Jiang Yanan.

As for Meng Gui, he drifted between the counters.

He’d been dragged there by his good brother Cui Yu as a wingman, and had Cui Yu not promised him a hot pot meal, Meng Gui wouldn’t have set foot outside in such scorching weather.

Before they left, the saleswoman made a request:

"Hello, you have a really good image, could I take a photo of you with the phone you’re buying?"

Huang Zhongfei stopped, beaming a youthful and sunny smile, and politely declined, "No need, I’m just an average person."

Yu Wen stared infatuatedly at his unparalleled profile and thought frantically, ’If you’re an average person, then Cui Yu and Meng Gui are downright subhuman!’

Huang Zhongfei’s modesty made Yu Wen’s liking for him skyrocket.

She had praised her class leader for his good looks many times, and each time he was exceedingly humble, as if unaware of his own attractiveness.

She fleetingly felt the class leader had a certain charm.

The saleswoman, offering gifts, hoped to take a photo of Huang Zhongfei.

However, Yu Wen wouldn’t allow it; to have such common and vulgar people touch her class leader, "His photo is not for the likes of you!"

Yu Wen quickly led the class leader away from the Huawei authorized store.

"Zhongfei, don’t you already have a 5s? Why buy another one?" Cui Yu wondered.

"I’m just supporting our domestic phones," Huang Zhongfei said.

Outside, the sun was scorching, so they found a cold drink shop to sit down in. Yu Wen was still seething over the saleswoman’s many tricks.

Smelly woman, daring to covet her class leader.

Yu Wen wished she could tear her apart with her bare hands, but with the class leader by her side, she didn’t want to make a bad impression.

The mere thought of the class leader, frowning with his handsome eyebrows, disgustedly saying, "Yu Wen, you’re so crude, I hate you!" filled Yu Wen with immense fear. She absolutely, definitely didn’t want to become that kind of vulgar woman!

But Yu Wen wanted others to understand what they tried so hard to gain, she could easily obtain.

Yu Wen forced a sweet, fake smile and in the sweetest voice, coyly said, "Class leader, the surroundings here are so nice, let’s take a photo together?"

Huang Zhongfei agreed, "Sure, let me call over Cui Yu, Meng Gui and the others."

Yu Wen’s expression stiffened. Why call them over to spoil things?

But Huang Zhongfei had already called them, and Jiang Yanan with Cui Yu, Meng Gui joined in.

Yu Wen said, "We’re out having fun for once, let’s take a group photo."

Meng Gui said, "I’m fine with anything."

Yu Wen stood in the center, took out her phone, and inwardly planned to crop the others out after the photo, so that only she and the class leader would be in it.

This was going to be their couple’s photo.

Yu Wen raised her phone, unlocked it, and opened the camera app in front of everyone.

As everyone knows, with many smartphone cameras, when you exit the app, the next time you open it, it’s on the last page you used.

Today, while waiting for the class leader, Yu Wen had used the front camera as a mirror to check her appearance, snapping various selfies.

Thus, the image that now appeared on the phone screen in front of everyone was a close-up of Yu Wen’s face...

Not many can handle a camera in their face, and Yu Wen’s large nostrils were now in full view.

Cui Yu burst out laughing, "Yu Wen, your nostrils are so round and big, you’re the spitting image of Pea Shooter!"

Yu Wen froze.

She quickly looked at the class leader and saw he was looking away.

No matter if the entire world laughed at her, as long as the class leader didn’t, Yu Wen could still maintain her composure because the class leader was her entire world.

...

After the selfie, they headed to the mall.

Reaching the entrance, they saw a plump figure sitting on the steps crying, drawing the attention of many passersby.

Glancing at her figure, Cui Yu said to Meng Gui, "Could it be that she’s been dumped?"

Like a sage who had attained enlightenment, Meng Gui spoke with profound ambiguity, "Perhaps her faith has collapsed."

Cui Yu, eyeing the girl’s broad frame, mumbled to himself, "Getting dumped at that size isn’t surprising."

Cui Yu was a classic skinny guy who couldn’t gain weight no matter what he ate, so he never understood overweight people.

Neither planned to meddle further and were ready to walk past.

But Yu Wen, wanting to show her kindness in front of the class leader, said, "She looks so pitiful, crying like that."

Jiang Yanan commented, "Who knows why."

"We can’t just ignore this," Yu Wen said, pulling out a packet of tissues, her smile radiant and saintly as she walked towards the crying girl, leaving the others with only her back in view.

Yu Wen felt like an angel descending to earth, ready to save all from their suffering.

Surely only someone like her was worthy of the class leader!

Finally, Yu Wen stopped in front of the steps, extended her hand of mercy, and with a compassionate voice said, "Don’t cry, here, wipe your tears."

Then, the girl looked up, revealing an ugly angry fat face to Yu Wen.

The plump girl yelled out, "Fuck off, it’s none of your damn business!"

Seeming to harbor a great fury within, she suddenly stood up, flailing her thick arms and pummeling Yu Wen.

Yu Wen was stunned by the onslaught and had no time to react!

By the time Cui Yu noticed, Yu Wen was being mercilessly beaten on the ground by the plump girl!

Cui Yu burst out angrily, "Dammit!"

Meng Gui was equally enraged; though they often clashed and had conflicts with Yu Wen, she was still a classmate, and what’s more, they had invited her out to hang out today!
