Chapter 699: Chapter 698: Meeting at the End of the Road

Zhen Yu was still skeptical about Liu Ting and Qian Duoduo’s speculations, and after hesitating for a while, she asked uncertainly, "Do you guys think... could this be true?"

"Why wouldn’t it be?" Liu Ting blurted out without even thinking: "Besides, if you want to know whether it’s true or not, why not just go see him in person to find out?"

That’s why people often say familiarity breeds fear!

Having not seen Han Mingyue for a while, Zhen Yu suddenly felt a bit shy at the thought...

She raised her hand and yanked off the black hairband she used for her little ponytail! Her hair instantly covered her face!

Then she picked a few fallen hairs from the hairband, tossed them to the ground, and whispered softly, "Maybe I should just forget it."

"How can you just forget it?!" Liu Ting was the first to disagree. "If you don’t go see him and he doesn’t come out, do you plan to avoid him the entire summer vacation?"

"Actually, it’s not a big deal not to see him..." Zhen Yu fiddled with the hairband in her hand as she said, "After all, we can text and call each other."

"How is that the same thing! Ah! I really don’t understand you guys!" Liu Ting complained helplessly.

Qian Duoduo, on the other hand, felt the complete opposite of Liu Ting! Having had experience in love, she felt like she understood Zhen Yu’s feelings perfectly!

Once the other two fell silent, she persuaded, "How about we just wait a bit longer! If he really wants to see you, he’d definitely find an opportunity to sneak out! Maybe in a few days, he’ll take the initiative to contact you!"

Actually, Zhen Yu was quite confident in Han Mingyue, it was just that she was not too sure about Mr. Han and Mrs. Han’s attitudes! Now that someone suggested waiting, she quickly agreed, going along with the advice with a nod.

——

Seeing this, Liu Ting also very tactfully moved on from the topic.

Feeling the mood dip a little, she suddenly had a whimsical thought, "How about we play some cards? Zhen Yu, do you have any at home?"

"Ah, we don’t have any! But we should be able to buy them nearby!" Zhen Yu quickly answered and then suddenly changed her mind, "Anyway, it’s cooler in the evening. How about I take you guys for a walk? We could visit First High School, how about that?"

"Sure!" Both Liu Ting and Qian Duoduo got excited at once!

Casually, Liu Ting said, "I actually wanted to ask you if you could take us for a visit tomorrow!"

"But it’s so late, will the school let us in?" Qian Duoduo was somewhat concerned.

"Don’t worry! I know the gatekeeper well, he will definitely let us in!" Zhen Yu answered with a smile as she spoke, "Back when my brother had just finished his middle school exams, we went in just like this!"

Suddenly recalling the time when her family of three had first arrived in Qi City, the smile on Zhen Yu’s face faded a lot.

Fortunately, Qian Duoduo and Liu Ting were busy grabbing their wallets and changing their shoes, none of them noticed her expression.

Zhen Yu took a moment to steady her breathing, trying her best to quickly shake off the unhappiness. Then she made her way to the door as well.

"Here’s some Floral Dew, spray some on to keep the mosquitoes away." Before opening the door, Zhen Yu took the bottle of Floral Dew from the shoe cabinet by the door, opened the cap, and sprayed some on herself.

Seeing this, Qian Duoduo immediately extended her hands and said loudly, "Give me some more! Mosquitoes always go for me!"

"Me too!" Liu Ting quickly followed.

——

It was still Grandpa Wang on duty at the school gate, and the three girls’ entrance into First High School was just as smooth as it had been back then.

Zhen Yu led them around, stopping here and there, introducing whatever they saw like a professional tour guide.

Until they stood in front of the two dormitory buildings, looking at the locked iron gate, did Zhen Yu finally beckon the two to sit down on the steps at the entrance.

"Let’s sit here for a bit! I can take the opportunity to tell you about what the dorms are like inside."

"I really wish I could go in and take a look right now..." Liu Ting said with regret.

Qian Duoduo didn’t mind as much, "What’s the hurry? As long as you get in, you’ll have to live here for three years!"

"Duoduo is right! I hope by then you guys can all get along with your roommates!" Zhen Yu said with heartfelt sincerity.

Her words made it clear there was something going on! So Liu Ting immediately said: "What’s up? It sounds like you don’t get along with your roommates!"

Zhen Yu spoke the truth, "That’s right, I don’t! So starting in September, I won’t be living on campus anymore! My home is close anyway, commuting is quite alright!" After pausing, she added: "It’s just a bit of a pity! You guys are just about to move in, and I’m about to move out..."

Hearing this, Liu Ting and Qian Duoduo both fell somewhat silent, not sure if it was because Zhen Yu was moving out, or because they were thinking of their own future roommates.

Seeing their reaction, Zhen Yu quickly changed the subject! "Well, the boys’ and girls’ dorms! They actually look the same..."

The three girls lingered for quite some time at the dormitory entrance, talking not just about accommodation but also some other things.

If it hadn’t been pitch dark near the cafeteria, they might have even gone to take a look when Zhen Yu mentioned it!

It was after they had chatted about enough that Zhen Yu stood up, patted the dust off her pants, and said: "Let’s go! Time to head home! And pick up a deck of cards on the way!"

"Sure!" Qian Duoduo agreed, and was just about to stand up when her eyes suddenly widened!

Her whole body just froze on the spot.

How could she have run into him here??

Oh, right!! If she could come to Qi City, so could he...

"Duoduo!!"

Lu Wei called out in surprise, lifting his leg as if he wanted to run towards Qian Duoduo, but Lu Huai grabbed him firmly in place.

This wasn’t because Lu Huai knew anything about the relationship between Lu Wei and Qian Duoduo, but purely because Lu Huai had animal-like instincts! He detected danger from the cold look in Zhen Yu’s eyes!

"Ah ha, haha! Zhen Yu, you brought friends to, to play, huh!"

As he spoke, Lu Huai sidestepped forward, positioning himself to just shield Lu Wei behind him.

Before this moment, Lu Huai had never felt the hairs on his body stand up quite like they did now when facing Zhen Yu! Not to mention struggling to even speak coherently... He could feel that Zhen Yu was genuinely harboring some bad intentions towards him, or rather towards his cousin!

After understanding Lu Huai’s action! Zhen Yu appropriately eased her emotions and decided to give him face.

"We’re done playing! Best to mind our own business!"

Zhen Yu enunciated the word ’disturb’ very clearly! She believed that given Lu Huai’s intelligence, he would definitely understand her subtext.

So after she said this, she turned and, without looking back, reached out her hand to pull up Qian Duoduo.

Then she turned to Liu Ting, who had already rushed to the forefront and stood between the two groups, and said: "Let’s go, Liu Ting!"
