Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 302: Completely Forgotten

Having ended the call with Lin Ruixian, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but look at the two dialogue boxes and complain, "What a rip-off!"

It’s just asking him to stay a while longer in U Country, and not only does he want all his expenses reimbursed, he actually wants me to help out at his store for a month after I recover?

Sneaky businessman! Sneaky businessman! Even Ling Tianyou wouldn’t do something like this!

Oh, wait, these two are just the same, like two peas in a pod.

She got up and drove to the hospital, where Shen Hanyin’s condition seemed much better than before.

At least when speaking, she no longer sounded as weak as she did previously.

Seeing her gradually getting better, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but smile sincerely, "Isn’t it possible you can be discharged in a while?"

Shen Hanyin sighed and shook her head, "It’s still early! The doctor said I need to stay at least another month."

Gu Ningyue held her cool fingertips, "It’s okay, a month will pass in the blink of an eye. You’ve already gotten through so many days, isn’t it moving fast now?"

Shen Hanyin responded, but a trace of sadness flickered in her eyes.

Gu Ningyue caught her emotion and couldn’t help asking, "What’s wrong? Are you troubled by something?"

Could it be that Ji Zhiye came to the hospital to see Shen Hanyin? If that’s the case, she must give him a hard time!

Why is this person always lurking around?

"Oh, it has nothing to do with Ji Zhiye." After all, they were sisters, Shen Hanyin already knew what she was thinking with a single glance from Gu Ningyue: "It’s the captain’s assistant who came and said some nauseating things."

Gu Ningyue was taken aback, "The captain’s assistant? What did they say?"

After the venomous snake incident in Shen Hanyin’s group last time, Chen Qinghui was dismissed.

Now, the captain’s assistant should be a new assistant.

If that’s the case, why would Shen Hanyin still be unhappy? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Shen Hanyin thought for a while and then shared what happened this morning, "Li Ru is a member of the group, she had a little fame before, but it was mostly given by her parents, and she’s somewhat lacking in skills, but she’s quite adept at currying favor with the leaders. She’s always wanted to replace me. With Chen Qinghui’s downfall this time, her becoming the captain’s assistant was actually expected. However, having her as the assistant means my days might be much harder."

"She came over this morning, claiming to visit me, but in reality, it was a veiled gloating that she can now cover everything with one hand. Although my position hasn’t been replaced by her for now, judging by how she spoke today, if I return a few days later, I might not even be a substitute teammate."

She’s loved this group ever since she joined right after graduation.

Being able to achieve the top position today and become the mainstay of the group is the result of her working tirelessly.

Just thinking that she might have to give up or have her efforts sabotaged because of Li Ru infuriates her.

Listening to Shen Hanyin, Gu Ningyue frowned and recalled the time she went to the theater to find Shen Hanyin: "Is it that girl wearing a black T-shirt, with a ponytail, and a tiny mole like a matchmaker’s mole on the corner of her mouth?"

Even though the two hadn’t interacted, for some reason, when Shen Hanyin mentioned Li Ru, that person’s image automatically appeared in her mind.

Shen Hanyin was a bit surprised, "Yes, that’s her. Did she talk to you that day?"

In memory, Gu Ningyue and Li Ru hadn’t actually chatted!

How did Gu Ningyue know?

Gu Ningyue chuckled, "You focus on recovering well first. Before you’re healed, she will come to curry favor with you on her own."

Shen Hanyin looked at Gu Ningyue, "What do you intend to do?"

Gu Ningyue’s smile deepened, "Don’t worry, it’s just fighting fire with fire!"

Since Li Ru enjoys disgusting others so much, it shouldn’t be hard to return the favor and disgust her.

The reason a petty individual triumphs is mainly because they have to be petty first.

And the things a petty person does will become leverage against them, not too difficult to find.

Li Ru is so eager to come to the hospital to declare her triumph and tell everyone of her victory that she doesn’t mind letting her taste the flavor of falling back to square one.

"I’m fine, don’t hurt yourself. I’m already grateful for what you’ve done for me." Seeing Gu Ningyue’s attitude, Shen Hanyin wasn’t too happy: "Besides, I still have a month before discharge, and after that, I must do rehabilitation at home. It’s not like I’ll quickly return to work. As for this matter, just let it be!"

"As long as I don’t care, what can she do to me?"

Shen Hanyin, relying on her abilities, the captain will know what to do.

Everything will return to how it was after she goes back.

Gu Ningyue sighed looking at Shen Hanyin, "You! Sometimes you’re too laid-back. Do you think that if you spare her, she’ll spare you? If it were that simple, wouldn’t the world be too wonderful?"

Shen Hanyin didn’t speak, but undeniably, Gu Ningyue’s words had swayed her.

She thought of the memory of the snake hissing its tongue at her, seemingly ready to take her life at any moment.

"So..." Shen Hanyin looked at Gu Ningyue, "How do you plan to do it?"

Gu Ningyue just smiled without answering, stood up, and patted her hand, "Leave the dirty work to me! You just stay true to yourself."

Though it was said jokingly, there was also a bit of sincerity in Gu Ningyue’s words.

Shen Hanyin is pure and innocent, with hands so clean that even the slightest stain might become her blemish.

If given the choice, though Gu Ningyue didn’t wish to become Shen Hanyin, she couldn’t deceive herself about her envy towards Shen Hanyin.

If her family were happy, if her parents hadn’t... maybe her own hands wouldn’t be stained with blood.

And the life Shen Hanyin leads is exactly the kind she idealizes as happiness.

If possible, she wouldn’t mind taking the original’s place to protect the unique Shen Hanyin.

After all, she is so good to her.

After all, she is her only friend in this world.

After all, genuine feelings are precious.

Gu Ningyue left, and looking at her back, Shen Hanyin’s eyes filled with a faint mist.

When did the roles between them become reversed?

The girl who once cried in her arms has unknowingly stepped in front of her.

From the birthday party onward, Gu Ningyue seemed to transform into a different person.

What has Gu Ningyue been through during this time?

It must have been painful, yet Gu Ningyue didn’t come complaining as she used to, instead changing completely.

Everything appears to be heading in a positive direction; as Shen Hanyin looks at the fresh bouquet at the bedside, maybe she should completely forget about that person sooner...
