Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 693 - 692: Settling Down

The parent-teacher conference was attended by Mr. Han and Zhen Yan. Exactly what Teacher Cao discussed with the two of them, Han Mingyue and Zhen Yu could not eavesdrop on.

But after Mr. Han returned home, he severely reprimanded Han Mingyue!

He didn’t actually force the young couple to break up, but he did order his son to keep his distance from Zhen Yu in school from now on...

After returning home, Zhen Yan did not reprimand his sister either, but he proved to be quite capable when it came to conveying messages.

"Little sister, Teacher Cao was serious! No repeats! He told me to tell you that if you dare cause trouble in his class again, he will definitely make an example out of both of you! Detention, school-wide announcements, he won’t hesitate to use them! You know he has always been someone who doesn’t show favoritism! So from now on, you and Han Mingyue had better behave yourselves at school!"

Zhen Yu really took these words to heart, so she nodded solemnly in agreement.

There’s a time and place for everything! She and Han Mingyue are still students after all, and she realized that she had indeed been rash before!

She should have lured him away to a place far from the school, some secluded spot, before settling their issues.

But it’s too late for regrets now that things have reached this stage! All they can do is lay low for a while...

——

The end of the parent-teacher conference signified the official start of summer vacation.

In order to attend Bai Xue’s parents meeting, Mrs. Bai and Bai Yong came to Qi City a day early and temporarily stayed at a hotel.

After the conference, Bai Xue accompanied her mother to meet with the property owner to handle the real-estate transfer paperwork.

So, Zhen Yan was also roped in by Zhen Yu to go through the transfer paperwork for the shop she bought. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Since Zhen Yu had nothing to do with it, the only people who went were Zhen Yan, Bai Xue’s family, and the heads of household of the two sellers.

And from the time they arrived until they left, it was Zhen Yan who was busy helping the Bai Family with everything! Not only did he pay for the taxi fares to and fro, but he also helped Mrs. Bai in and out of the taxicab, folded and unfolded the wheelchair, and took them all out to lunch, among other things.

Other than making sure her younger brother didn’t run off and get lost, Bai Xue didn’t help out with anything else.

So much so that after a day’s worth of things were done and the mother and her children were dropped off at the hotel by Zhen Yan! As soon as he left! The door closed! Mrs. Bai sighed and said, "Ah! Zhen Yu is a good one! And this Zhen Yan isn’t bad either! Xiao Xue, if you could be with him, Mom would be relieved!"

Bai Xue was initially startled! Then a look of helplessness filled her face as she said, "Mom! Zhen Yan and I, it’s impossible! He doesn’t like me at all!"

"I think it’s you who doesn’t like him!" Mrs. Bai bluntly finished her sentence, then hesitantly asked, "Xiao Xue! You, you don’t already have a boy you like, do you?!"

Bai Xue’s face suddenly turned red, then immediately paled!

"Mom! What nonsense are you talking about! I, I just want to study hard right now, and then, like Xiao Yu said, get into a good university! So I can be self-sufficient in the future! And also support you and my brother!"

Mrs. Bai hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she didn’t call out her daughter’s little trick.

Finally, she sighed deeply and said, "As long as you have this kind of awareness, it’s good! With our family’s current situation, Xiao Xue, if you start dating some random boy, they would probably just be interested in your looks! You’re young, you don’t understand what those men are really like! If he is attracted to you now just for your looks, he could well be attracted to someone else in the future! If you don’t have a skill to fall back on, once you’re older, and your beauty wanes, it’s quite possible he will do like your father did, run off with some young and pretty girl! By then, what will you have to support yourself with?"

Bai Xue went silent when her mother mentioned her father.

But Mrs. Bai summed it up with, "Ah... All you can do now is study hard! Only by getting into a university can you be free from worries about food and drink in the future! And not need to rely on anyone!"

Bai Xue: "... Mom! I understand all that you’ve said! Don’t worry! I know what I should and should not do!"

"Glad to know! Glad to know..."

——

The Bai Family’s house was sorted out quickly! Considering Mrs. Bai’s poor health, it was Fu Yu’s father, who is also Mrs. Bai’s elder brother, who personally hired a vehicle and accompanied it to deliver the Bai Family’s belongings from their old home in Laha Town to Qi City.

When the truck arrived, the Han Family Brothers and Zhen Family siblings were helping clean Bai Xue’s house, so they all worked together to move the items into the house and placed them where they belonged.

After the work was done, Fu’s father didn’t stay long; he simply urged Mrs. Bai to call him if anything came up, and then hurried back with the vehicle.

And so, the Bai Family officially settled down in Qi City.

——

Ten days quietly passed, not only had Zhen Yan finished submitting his university application, but also the physical examination required for regular admission had ended.

All the high school graduates were now just waiting to receive their university acceptance letters.

Of course! That’s if they managed to get admitted.

After saying goodbye to his little sister, a carefree Zhen Yan took the plane to the Capital with Zhang San.

Meanwhile, the Sincere Internet Cafe near Qi University was temporarily left in the hands of Zhen Yu, who would visit it every day.

Besides dedicating time every morning and evening to writing calligraphy for submission (for Editor Huang), Zhen Yu also began to focus on the renovation of the clothing (tailoring) store.

——

Since the store would be manned by Mrs. Bai most of the time, Zhen Yu made sure to discuss the renovation details with Mrs. Bai as much as possible.

One thing was to consider accessibility for her as a disabled person; the other was that Zhen Yu wanted to communicate more about the business direction and philosophy of the store with Mrs. Bai.

Then Zhen Yu found out that, although she and Mrs. Bai were from different generations, their ideas or aesthetics were mostly in agreement in most cases, and they both preferred — custom handmade!

So, Zhen Yu seized the opportunity and tentatively asked Mrs. Bai if she was willing to learn embroidery from her.

Mrs. Bai was overjoyed, of course! She nodded her head in agreement immediately!

Just like she said to Bai Xue, having a skill was so valuable!

In this day and age, it was hard to find a master to teach embroidery!

She didn’t expect that Zhen Yu could do it!

Although Mrs. Bai might not believe the lie about "grandma teaching it", she didn’t plan to question it either!

Thus, Zhen Yu began to visit the Bai Family even more frequently.

At such a time, Fu Yu unexpectedly came to Qi City! And upon his arrival, he moved straight into Bai Xue’s house!

"Big cousin! I’ve brought everything I need for High School! I’ll settle down here and spend the summer vacation! Once the school term starts, I’ll go straight to school to register..."
