Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 694 - 693: Thinking Clearly!

Fu Yu is, after all, Mrs. Bai’s nephew, so even if he didn’t mention it, Mrs. Bai would never send him away!

Thus, regardless of whether Bai Xue was willing or not, Fu Yu naturally moved into her new home.

However... after encountering Fu Yu at Bai Xue’s house on the first day, Zhen Yu never stepped foot in the Bai Family’s home again from the next day forward!

Naturally, this wasn’t solely because Zhen Yu hadn’t planned to personally watch over Mrs. Bai every day, teaching her embroidery! It was more so because she decided to simply handle the matters she had planned for the following few days ahead of time!

First, she got up early! She specially asked Old Wang, the contractor who had helped her with internet café renovations and was now renovating her clothing store, to pass along some embroidery supplies and simple pattern books that Zhen Yu had asked He Baihe to help print early in the morning to Mrs. Bai.

Then she made a special phone call, asking Li Si for help to occasionally check on the renovation progress and quality of the clothing store! Incidentally, she also asked him to relay a message to Mrs. Bai if he happened to meet her.

"Learning the craft of embroidery requires patience, you must practice slowly, and practice makes perfect."

And so, Mrs. Bai, who was utterly oblivious to the convoluted dynamics between her nephew and Zhen Yu, naturally accepted this explanation and diligently practiced according to the methods Zhen Yu had taught her a few days prior.

Bai Xue, however, suffered as at least three to five times a day, she would be asked by Fu Yu— "Where exactly is Zhen Yu living now?!"

Needless to say, Bai Xue definitely would not tell!

In fact, she often had to counsel or even rebuke him!

"Aren’t you with that girl from your class, what’s-her-name Wang? Why are you so concerned about Xiao Yu now!?"

Every time Fu Yu heard this question, he would evade it with a change of subject.

"That’s all in the past! Why bring her up!"

——

But Zhen Yu, having temporarily handed over these matters to others, wasn’t able to just stay home and write calligraphy every day!

Because she was busy!

The ranch had actually replied to her before the college entrance exam, but the leader of the dairy factory had always been tied up!

It was only a few days ago that the leader finally managed to give her a call! He said that he barely managed to free some time recently, and within the upcoming week, he could accompany Zhen Yu to visit the ranch, with Factory Director Lu also joining them.

Therefore, Zhen Yu, of course, had to prioritize the schedules of these two busy people and swiftly finalize the arrangements!

After all, Boss Tian from the ranch had been waiting for quite a while already!

If they delayed any further, it would be troublesome if someone else got there first...

Thus, no longer managing the clothing store, Zhen Yu immediately embarked on a spur-of-the-moment trip!

Destination—Fuyu Ranch! Mode of travel—road trip!

The driver was naturally Boss Tian! Because he actually took the trouble to drive to Qi City to pick up Zhen Yu and the others!

——

And unlike last time, this time, Zhen Yu didn’t bring Han Mingyue along.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but that she couldn’t!

Ever since Mr. Han came back from the parent-teacher conference, he locked Han Mingyue at home, forbidding him from going anywhere!

And he justified it by saying—

"Take advantage of the summer vacation when you have the time to thoroughly tutor your younger brother’s studies! So that he won’t fall behind after starting High School! You should also take this time to review your own studies! After all, you’re about to choose your major..."

From the text messages sent by Han Mingyue and his few words during their phone calls, Zhen Yu could understand perfectly clear!

Mr. and Mrs. Han actually didn’t disapprove of him being with her!

However, they probably considered that both of them were still in high school. That’s why the elders might want to suppress the young couple’s relationship, hoping they would consider matters beyond studies only after a couple more years...

Both of them truly understood the reasons!

Yet, they were truly unhappy about it.

Although they knew well that the elders were looking out for their and her well-being, and for the sake of their future or some long-term plan!

But after all, hearts are made of flesh...

Therefore, even though they had only been separated for a short while without seeing each other, Zhen Yu still felt somewhat ill at ease.

Even to the point that she suddenly found herself missing him a little...

But Zhen Yu couldn’t just go to see him, especially knowing that Uncle Han and Aunt Han wanted to keep her away for the time being!

So, she had no choice but to pack her days full to the brim, trying her best not to think too much about it.

——

This trip to the ranch was purely a business inspection.

Walking around and making occasional stops, the group of three would suddenly discuss some questions with Boss Tian.

After touring around the entire ranch quite extensively, through subtle eye contact, Zhen Yu understood that Factory Director Lu and the factory leader approved of this ranch!

Since that was the case! With both sides interested in sealing the deal, everyone tacitly and unitedly took their seats at the dining table.

It was still Boss Tian hosting the meal.

There’s no helping it! That’s just the Northeastern people, or rather a common practice among most businesspeople.

Only at the dining table can business be conducted! No liquor, no deal!

However, without Han Mingyue and Zhang San accompanying her, Zhen Yu was teetotal!

Therefore, naturally, the leadership from the dairy factories took the place of Zhen Yu in the drinking session.

In Boss Tian’s eyes, since the people were specifically brought by Zhen Yu, and she wasn’t left out of the negotiations, they were considered her allies!

He, a grown man, would feel rather embarrassed drinking directly with a young girl - it would hurt his pride!

——

Fortunately, Zhen Yu had a clear mind! She wanted to use this opportunity to give Factory Director Lu and the others a good push, hoping that more factory personnel would start buying ranches on their own, then handing them over to the dairy factory for self-operation!

So right from the start! Zhen Yu directly discussed the price issue with Boss Tian.

After much back-and-forth, Boss Tian fixed the price at 600,000 and wouldn’t budge a cent lower!

Actually, at that time in ’99, the price was a bit high.

But the symbolic significance of buying this ranch for Zhen Yu was greater than its practical value!

Otherwise, why wouldn’t she use the money to buy an apartment or a shop in the Capital? Wouldn’t the appreciation of real estate value be more attractive?

She did all this! Only because she felt that only if she took the lead in this venture, could she show everyone the kind of sweet deals she got out of it, inspire others to follow suit, and implement the concept of self-operated and privately owned ranches in the dairy factory!

So in the end, she still agreed and closed the deal for the ranch at a price of 600,000!
