Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 677 - 676: Want to be Famous?

Turns out Zhen Yu was also feeling annoyed at this moment!

She turned on the living room light, finished getting water, and was about to drink when she suddenly realized that her underwear was missing!

This was... rather speechless...

It must’ve been her doing, right? It must have been! Zhen Yu vaguely seemed to have a slight impression of it!

After scratching her head, she decisively gulped down the water in one go and hurried back to the bedroom!

After entering the dark bedroom with arms crossed over her chest, Zhen Yu didn’t delay and immediately said, "Han Mingyue! You, you go sit on the sofa for a while!"

"...Oh!" Han Mingyue really didn’t dare to say or ask anything and obediently went out!

As soon as he left, Zhen Yu immediately dived onto the bed to search around! It didn’t take long for her to find something, but the location of the object seemed to be where Han Mingyue had been lying, right where his head had been resting?!

"Don’t think too much! Don’t think too much!" Zhen Yu brainwashed herself while quickly putting it back on!

As soon as she was dressed, the lost sense of security returned immediately!

Only then did Zhen Yu sit on the edge of the bed, took several deep breaths, and checked the time on her phone before getting up and leaving the bedroom.

——

As soon as she went out, Han Mingyue almost reflexively looked right at her!

His intense gaze, just one look, almost made Zhen Yu retreat back into the bedroom!

Thankfully, she HELD on!

After straightening her back, Zhen Yu asked with a seemingly calm but actually tense voice, "It’s almost nine o’clock! Why haven’t you gone home yet?"

"I was thinking of waiting until you sobered up before leaving! But, uh cough!"

While talking, Han Mingyue suddenly stopped and even coughed to hide his nervousness.

Fortunately, Zhen Yu didn’t call him out on it! Instead, she directly changed the subject, "That, the manuscript submissions for both publishers are due, why don’t you go to Qi University with me?"

"Sure! Shall we go now?"

Han Mingyue knew that only near Qi University were there post offices and mailboxes, and Zhen Yu always went there to submit her manuscripts.

"Yeah! Let’s go! I’ve already packed and stamped the envelopes, just need to mail them!"

Zhen Yu nodded while explaining, and took both hands from behind her back.

She was holding two thick kraft paper registered mail envelopes.

At this moment, Han Mingyue really didn’t have the mind to think about anything else! So, the two of them, one after the other, turned off the lights, locked the door, and went downstairs in silence.

Walking side by side on the road, not talking seemed a bit off! So after hesitating for quite a while, both of them opened their mouths simultaneously.

"I,"

"I..."

"You go first!" Han Mingyue politely gave way for Zhen Yu to speak ’ladies first!’

"I don’t want to live in the dormitory anymore come September!" Zhen Yu, who was normally quiet, made a shocking statement!

"What?" Han Mingyue turned his head in surprise to look at her. "Is it because of your roommates?"

"Yeah! Lately, they’ve been arguing more and more fiercely! They don’t stop at noon or evening! I’m too lazy to get involved, but listening to it often is also annoying!"

"..." Han Mingyue thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Is it really safe for you to live alone...?!"

"What’s unsafe about it? Ju Ming has already been thrown in jail!"

After saying this bluntly, Zhen Yu suddenly felt she shouldn’t bring up that scumbag!

So she quickly switched gears, "Besides, public security has improved a lot compared to a few years ago! There are cameras everywhere!"

Han Mingyue pondered for a while but eventually did not chip in.

After walking a bit further, Han Mingyue suddenly switched to a new topic and asked the question he had been wanting to ask.

"Is this the last batch of manuscripts you sent to Old Lin?"

"Yeah! Finally, I’ve got one less thing to worry about!" Zhen Yu said with a sigh.

"The high school portion? So when school starts in September, will the students at First High School be able to use your calligraphy copybooks?"

"Ah? It seems like it, right?!"

When Han Mingyue asked this, it caught Zhen Yu off guard! Suddenly she wasn’t so sure anymore...

After hearing her uncertain tone, Han Mingyue asked again!

"Is it or isn’t it?!"

"It is!" This time Zhen Yu answered with certainty!

"Old Lin told me so! He said it’ll be promoted throughout the entire province in all elementary and high schools!"

"...Then you’ll become famous pretty soon..."

For some reason, Zhen Yu sensed an inexplicable hint of melancholy in Han Mingyue’s voice, so she instinctively asked what was on her mind.

"Do you really want to become famous?!"

"..." Han Mingyue closed her eyes silently, took a deep breath, and said, "I don’t want to become famous! I just think that after you become famous, well... your life might not be as peaceful as it is now."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yu frowned and pondered; she really couldn’t see how her life would change after becoming famous because of a set of calligraphy copybooks!

"Could it be... that people will come seeking my calligraphy? That seems unlikely..."

---

Han Mingyue nearly wanted to kneel at her girlfriend’s straightforward and linear thought process.

What he really meant was—after Zhen Yu became famous, she might receive more love letters and attract more male suitors!

How could she have thought of someone asking for calligraphy?!

What do these even have to do with each other...

"Sigh!" After sighing, Han Mingyue gave up on trying to explain and moved on to another topic.

"There’s something I almost forgot to tell you! A few days ago, I received a call from the writer’s publishing house. They said my award-winning work has been included in ’The First National New Concept Essay Contest Selection’, and they specifically called to ask for my mailing address to send the sample copy."

"That’s great news!" Zhen Yu almost didn’t have to think before responding, "Just now you were saying how I’m going to be famous, but now it’s your turn! Once the ’Selection’ goes on sale, you’re going to be famous nationwide! That’s way more impressive than me!"

"...Not necessarily! It’s just a ’Selection’; it’s not a collection solely of my writings," Han Mingyue said, half-believing.

"How could it not be!"

Zhen Yu thought to herself, you don’t yet realize how widespread and popular the ’New Concept Essay’ book was throughout the country back in its day!

It’s not to say that everyone had a copy, but it was almost like that!

With this in mind, Zhen Yu then asked, "Did the publishing house tell you when the book is expected to be on sale?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"It seems it’ll be around the National Day holiday."

Hearing this, Zhen Yu suddenly grinned.

"Hehe! That means I might enjoy a month of fame at school at most before you take over for me! Buddy! I’m rooting for you!" When Zhen Yu said the last sentence, she even deliberately patted Han Mingyue’s shoulder!

But then Han Mingyue caught her hand and held it tightly...
