Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 689 - 688 Quite So!

The fight between the two drunkards didn’t actually happen; they just shoved each other a few times before being separated by their classmates who were present.

Cao Zhixin, still unconvinced and held back by two male students, attempted to continue questioning Zhen Yu, who just mentioned her brother and turned to leave.

"Sorry, little sister! I’ve caused you trouble again..."

Hearing her brother suddenly say this, Zhen Yu uncharacteristically fell silent for a moment.

"I know! Ever since our parents got divorced, I’ve always been troubling you! But now it’s finally over! I’ve finished the college entrance exam! From now on, just leave everything to me! You just focus on your studies! I’ll listen only to you from now on! I won’t listen to anyone else! Including our dad, our mom! I don’t believe in them anymore!"

"She, the things she said, were all fucking lies! I won’t believe her bullshit anymore! I now see through her! In her heart, the one she raised by her side is her real son! What the fuck am I then?! Do I even matter to her at all?! Huh! Little sister! You tell me! Do we matter to her at all?! Ever since she had that son, what has she given us?! She no longer cares about us in her heart! Like that time on my birthday, ha! I was really stupid! I’m just a dumbass! Haha..."

The way home wasn’t too long, yet Zhen Yan mumbled all the way.

Zhen Yu listened silently to his drunken truths, feeling a deep sympathy for her brother!

Because he was truly hurt by their mother.

But if you asked her now, whether she regretted exposing their mother’s facade in front of her brother, she would definitely say—no regrets!

It’s better to recognize the situation early than too late!

If the financial issues hadn’t been revealed recently, but instead a year later, or even after Zhen Yan finished his four years of college, the heartache and shock he would have suffered would have been much heavier by then...

——

Fortunately, Zhen Yan was just a bit too talkative and didn’t need anyone to help him walk; nor did he display any strange drunken antics.

After returning home, Zhen Yu listened to him rambling for half an hour before coaxing him to wash up and go to bed.

The next day, she still had a full day of final exams, and it was too late to think more. After settling her brother, she also went straight to bed.

The next day Zhen Yan couldn’t even get up for his morning run, and Zhen Yu didn’t try to wake him; she just headed out on her own.

When she returned from her run, she saw that her brother had already bought breakfast and was sitting on the sofa waiting for her.

"Little sister, you’re back! Hurry up and wash up! Don’t you have an exam after breakfast?" Zhen Yan said, eager yet with a guilty conscience.

Zhen Yu glanced at him and said somewhat amusedly, "Don’t be so nervous! Your alcohol tolerance is quite good! It’s just that you talk too much."

Zhen Yan half-doubting, "...I really didn’t make a fuss?!"

He regretted drinking so much the night before upon waking up in the morning; not because of anything else, mainly fearing he was following in his father’s footsteps—getting drunk and throwing tantrums! After watching for so many years, he knew too well how annoying a man could be when drunk...

"Really not!"

Zhen Yu paused and then suddenly added, "But you must never drink with strangers in the future, I’m afraid you’ll be sold by someone and still help them count the money!"

Zhen Yan’s eyes twitched fiercely, somewhat helplessly he retorted, "Is it necessary?"

"Absolutely necessary!" Zhen Yu’s expression was both serious and earnest.

Zhen Yan had no choice but to believe this, "...Okay! I’ll remember that."

——

Zhen Yu thought that last night’s events were just a minor incident!

Yet, after a day of exams, she was directly blocked by two ’surprises’ outside the main gate of First High School!

At that time, she was discussing the last major question on the math exam with Han Mingyue, with each of them having different answers, yet both felt confident about their own solutions.

Then, just as she casually looked up, she saw the two suitors standing not far from the school gate!

So, Zhen Yu’s steps involuntarily paused for a moment.

Han Mingyue was walking side by side with her. As soon as she fell half a step behind, he immediately sensed her change of demeanor!

Following her gaze, he looked up and understood why Zhen Yu reacted that way.

Without much thought, Han Mingyue took the initiative and grabbed Zhen Yu’s hand, even though they were still about five steps away from the First High School gate.

The students following behind them burst into an uproar!

The whispers quickly grew louder, and the topic of discussion shifted from the exam questions to their relationship...

Zhen Yu did not try to break away from Han Mingyue’s hold; on the contrary, she grasped his hand back directly!

Her action unexpectedly brightened Han Mingyue’s sour mood, causing his lips to curl into a smile and his eyes to light up immediately!

His decision made just moments ago was now even more firmly set!

——

Outside the school gate, Ling Yang and Cao Zhixin were obviously not in a good mood!

In fact, if the two hadn’t yet left the school gate, Cao Zhixin was ready to rush over to forcibly separate them!

That’s what he thought, and that’s exactly what he did! The moment Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue walked out holding hands, Cao Zhixin dashed forward, taking three steps as if they were two, shouting, "Let go of her!"

Ling Yang, however, stood still.

He just quickly curled one side of his lips into a sneer, then immediately put on a face full of disappointment!

"Cao Zhixin! Are you sick?" Seeing the physically strong but simple-minded guy rushing up to Han Mingyue in an instant, Zhen Yu didn’t hesitate to throw a high kick!

Cao Zhixin had to hit the brakes! He stopped three steps away from them!

"So it’s him! What do you even see in him, Zhen Yu? You’re so tough, so skilled! I used to admire you for your strength! But you chose such a pretty boy?! I am really puzzled! How could he possibly be a match for you?"

Cao Zhixin is such a mindless person! After he finished his college entrance exams, he completely disregarded Zhen Yu’s well-being at school and blurted out the love triangle scandal right at the First High School gate!

"I thank you for your compliment!"

Zhen Yu was fuming inside and was about to lash out violently, but was forcefully held back by Han Mingyue!

And he said, "This isn’t worth fighting over!"

"How is it not worth it? It absolutely is!" Zhen Yu shouted angrily!

Han Mingyue tightened his grip on her hand, softly persuading, "Sweetheart! Stop it! This is the school gate; we shouldn’t fight here."

Zhen Yu’s chest heaved with anger, but she finally listened to Han Mingyue’s advice.

But she already made a plan in her mind...

"Cao Zhixin, you like getting beaten up, right? After the exams, I’ll make sure you get what you want! I’ll beat you until you are down looking for your teeth!"
