Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 706 - 705: Favoring Romance Over Friendship

Chapter 706: Chapter 705: Favoring Romance Over Friendship

After saying those words, Mrs. Han got up and left.

The living room was then left with only Han Mingyue, who sat on the sofa, deep in thought.

He understood what his mother wanted to convey and did indeed take her words to heart, but this did not mean that he fully agreed with what she had said!

The reason for Han Mingyue not mentioning the promise over calls and texts to Zhen Yu initially was that he didn’t quite know how to start the conversation!

It’s often said that the more you care, the more cautious you are! At that time, he was really afraid that a miscommunication would lead to a misunderstanding by Zhen Yu...

Thus, after delaying it for a few days once he figured out what to say, Han Mingyue simply didn’t want to tell Zhen Yu anymore!

Perhaps, there was a bit of pride playing tricks inside him...

And so, the matter got delayed until now!

During his youthful vigor, Han Mingyue was able to hold back from initiating a meeting or directly inviting Zhen Yu to his house for so long, which was indeed quite steady of him.

However, Bai Xue’s timely arrival stimulated him a bit! Thus, even someone as mature as Han Mingyue couldn’t hold back anymore...

After sitting on the sofa for a long while, Han Mingyue finally made a decision! If Zhen Yu didn’t come to see him tomorrow night, then the day after tomorrow, right after he wakes up, he would definitely call her first thing!

To personally tell her that he missed her! He wanted to see her immediately...

—

Han Mingyue had planned it well and was also prepared for the high likelihood that Zhen Yu might not take the initiative to see him.

Yet, Zhen Yu didn’t get angry with him as he imagined nor did she act pretentiously!

That evening, after she returned from the park, she first took Qian Duoduo and Liu Ting to a snack shop near First High School to have some ready-made dinner, then headed home.

Unexpectedly, just as she arrived downstairs at her building, she saw Bai Xue who had been waiting there with her brother...

Bai Xue hesitated for a moment upon seeing so many people — unsure whether to bring up Han Mingyue in front of the other two.

But Zhen Yu directly asked: "Did you go see Han Mingyue yesterday? What did he say?"

Zhen Yu did not mince her words, and Bai Xue soon caught on! For the other two, this was likely no secret anymore! Thus, she spoke straightforwardly in front of the three of them.

After hearing what Bai Xue relayed, Zhen Yu didn’t think twice and immediately shoved her home keys into Qian Duoduo’s hands, telling her to open the door herself!

Then she hurriedly pulled Bai Xue and her brother away.

Zhen Yu’s eager demeanor made Liu Ting shake her head! She smiled while shaking it and repeatedly exclaimed loudly to Qian Duoduo: "Zhen Yu really is the type with ’love over friends’! Look at this! It’s blatantly favoring her romantic interest over friends! I used to wonder how such people existed when I first heard this phrase! I didn’t expect I’d actually witness it today! Zhen Yu, this guy, haha..."

Qian Duoduo had no comment on this, or perhaps for her, at the moment, she preferred not to engage in any topics related to love.

After Liu Ting talked for a while and found it meaningless, she gradually stopped talking too.

Thus, after they went upstairs and entered the apartment, the two freshened up briefly and then sat on the sofa together, watching TV while waiting for Zhen Yu.

On the other side, Zhen Yu barely ran far while pulling Bai Xue before she was shaken off!

"Ugh! What are you pulling me for? My little brother can’t even keep up with us!" Bai Xue first complained, and then added, "Besides, you’re going to look for Han Mingyue, I’m not going! Why did you drag me along?! I need to take my brother home!"

"Uh!" Zhen Yu only then realized, and immediately felt extremely embarrassed!

"Oh! I forgot!"

Bai Xue was preoccupied with the thought of her mother being alone at home and didn’t pay much attention to Zhen Yu’s expression or reaction. She just said, "Fine, fine! If you’re in such a hurry, go ahead! My brother and I are heading home!"

"Oh! Okay!" Although Zhen Yu agreed, she didn’t move.

Bai Xue didn’t bother with her and immediately walked away with her brother.

After watching the siblings walk away for a while, Zhen Yu finally managed to calm her frantic mind.

She then followed behind Bai Xue and Bai Yong towards the gate of the community. It was only after she left her own community that Zhen Yu finally took a deep breath, fixed her route, and headed towards the direction of Han Mingyue’s new address.

Zhen Yu didn’t walk fast because she had only been to Han Mingyue’s new address twice!

Once just after his family moved, and once shortly before Zhen Yan’s college entrance examination.

Along the way, she stopped frequently, carefully recognizing the surrounding buildings, fearing that she might miss a side road.

Sure enough, what she feared came true! As she walked, Zhen Yu realized she was lost...

It wasn’t that she couldn’t find her way back home, but that she couldn’t find—the way to Han Mingyue’s house.

—

No choice! Given this situation, Zhen Yu could only seek help through a phone call.

Pulling out her cell phone, she dialed Han Mingyue’s number. The ’beep beep’ from the receiver only sounded twice before someone picked up!

There was a hint of slight nervousness in Han Mingyue’s voice,, "Hello! Xiao Yu! You,"

"Listen to me first!"

At this moment, Zhen Yu just wanted to see him quickly; she had no interest in chatting on the phone! So, she immediately interrupted him and directly said: "I can’t find your house! Can you come out and meet me?"

"Huh? Where are you?!" Han Mingyue was first stunned, then shocked! Fearing that Zhen Yu might have gotten herself lost!

"Here, there’s a Lele Billiards Hall, and a Jinhai Hardware and Sundries store,"

"Which street are you closer to? Can you find a place we both know and wait for me there?"

"Close... near Zhonghua Road! I just walked past a kindergarten that seemed like the one we walked past last time! I mentioned it then,"

"I know! Head towards the kindergarten now!" Han Mingyue didn’t let Zhen Yu continue speaking and instructed her, "Once you reach the entrance of the kindergarten, don’t wander off! Wait there! I’m coming to find you now!"

"Oh, okay!" As Zhen Yu agreed, she turned around and retraced the path she had followed coming in.

"Let’s hang up the phone for now! Give me a call when you get to the kindergarten entrance and tell me if it’s Zhongtian Kindergarten!"

"It seems there was a character ’Zhong’, but whether it’s Zhongtian I really don’t know..."
