Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 729 - 728: I Don’t Care Anymore

On the other end of the line, Mrs. Zhen barely had time to think before she responded with surprise and doubt: "What do you mean? Xiao Yu, make yourself clear!"

"Make myself clear?" Zhen Yu replied with a scoff, "Ha! I finally understand the saying ’like father, like son, like mother, like daughter.’ But while you may follow grandma’s footsteps, I absolutely will not end up like you!"

"How can you speak to me like this!" Mrs. Zhen immediately grew unhappy upon hearing this. "Back in the day, I, I did what an older sister ought to do, giving way to my younger brother! After all, you’re the elder one,"

Before Mrs. Zhen could finish her sentence, Zhen Yu interrupted her firmly!

"I don’t have a brother!"

Mrs. Zhen was taken aback! Now, she finally understood—her daughter was truly furious...

Constrained by her daughter’s dominance over the years, Mrs. Zhen was actually somewhat afraid of her! So when Zhen Yu stood her ground, Mrs. Zhen softened a bit. "Oh my! We’ve strayed too far from the topic. We can’t clear this up over the phone! Just tell me, why did you call?"

Mrs. Zhen didn’t need to ask, Zhen Yu was about to bring it up anyway! And now that Mrs. Zhen had taken the initiative to ask! So Zhen Yu immediately voiced the decision she had just made, "Zhen Yan didn’t explain it to you clearly, did he? We three have already split up the family! Understand? Whatever you want to do, like opening an internet café, that’s your business! Don’t call me again in the future! And don’t even think about my brother’s internet café! Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?! What can you possibly do to me?!"

Because her daughter had mentioned her younger son earlier, so Mrs. Zhen almost didn’t need Zhen Yu to state the threat explicitly to understand it immediately! "Are you still planning to side with the Gus to fight me for custody of the child? I am your mother! Your own mother!"

—

Even a clay figure still has three points of earthiness, let alone Mrs. Zhen who had been infuriated by her daughter’s talk of partitioning the family and then brazenly threatened about the child! So she burst out all of a sudden! And went on to smash the pot to pieces as she shouted into the phone, "I am concerned! I’m concerned! Since you’ve said it, that we’ve already split up the family, then this internet café is a matter between me and my eldest son! What’s it to you, you wretched girl! Do you think you have the right to meddle?!"

Zhen Yu bit her lower lip tightly, not talking back.

Then, just as Mrs. Zhen waited, highly agitated and emotionally charged, ready to have a big argument with her daughter, the call was suddenly hung up!

"Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu! Sigh...." Seeing that Zhen Yu was not responding, the poor at persuading Han Ming Yue had no choice but to stand up and walk over to her side. After embracing her, Han Ming Yue began to gently pat her back.

Mrs. Zhen’s shouting had been so loud that Han Ming Yue, who was sitting opposite Zhen Yu, had heard every single word clearly!

Thus, seeing Zhen Yu’s reaction, Han Ming Yue could especially empathize with her current mood.

After all, she just couldn’t bring herself to be ruthless...

That’s what Han Ming Yue was thinking! Just as Zhen Yu buried her entire head in Han Ming Yue’s waist, she suddenly spoke up!

"I don’t care anymore."

"Then don’t care anymore," Han Ming Yue understood in her heart that Zhen Yu meant she didn’t want to deal with the affairs between Zhen Yan and Mrs. Zhen anymore!

"Actually, she’s right, this matter has nothing to do with me! Whatever Zhen Yan decides to do, after all, it’s his thing." Zhen Yu said this abruptly and sniffed her nose.

Upon hearing this, Han Ming Yue’s hand, which had been patting her back, suddenly stopped and slowly tightened its grip!

—

Luckily, the two were in a private dining room at a restaurant, so noticing his change in movement, Zhen Yu slowly raised her hands and wrapped them around Han Ming Yue’s waist.

"I know you mean well, I just can’t do it!" After saying these words, Zhen Yu’s nose suddenly felt incredibly sour!

So she hastily lifted her head that had been pressed against Han Ming Yue’s chest and blinked her eyes. Then she continued, "After all, if she wanted to leave me behind when she divorced Zhen Halong, she could have."

"She doesn’t want you, but I do!" Han Mingyue blurted out these words without even thinking!

Then, before she could finish her sentence, her face turned as red as a Fuji apple!

Zhen Yu, however, felt the chill in her blood warming up again due to his directness...

After a brief silence, Zhen Yu spoke up, "Let’s go! Time to change our phone numbers!"

"?"

Han Mingyue looked at Zhen Yu, puzzled as she let go and stood up, wondering if she meant to cut off all contact completely...

In reality, he only guessed half right.

After they both changed to local SIM cards of the Capital, Zhen Yu immediately called Zhen Yan.

"Hello! Little sister! Did you report in smoothly?" Zhen Yan also had his school opening today, so he wasn’t able to accompany his sister in person.

"Quite smoothly! This is my new local number."

"I know! I’ll save it in a bit!"

"You can save it, but don’t give this number out to anyone! Especially don’t let her find out!"

"...What’s wrong? Did something happen?" Zhen Yan immediately sensed that their mother must be causing trouble again when he heard his sister’s words!

"It has nothing to do with me! You guys figure it out yourselves! Just keep anything that involves me a secret from her!" Zhen Yu didn’t want to say too much. Since she’d already decided to stay out of it, she really wouldn’t mention it anymore.

——

Zhen Yan knew what kind of person his sister was; now that she had even said "It has nothing to do with me," he knew she wouldn’t waste more words with him. So he directly said, "Well, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up then!"

Zhen Yu let out a long sigh, "Go ahead and hang up."

Right after hanging up with his sister, Zhen Yan immediately called their mother!

As soon as the call connected, Zhen Yan said loudly, "Hello! Mom!"

"Ah, Xiao Yan! It’s the first day of your school today, right? Why are you calling me at noon? Your brother’s sleeping!"

Hearing his mother’s faint complaints, Zhen Yan fell silent awkwardly.

Then, he lowered his voice and asked, "Did you call my sister today? What did you talk about? Did you fight?"

"Ah... that! Let’s talk about it when you have time to come over!" Mrs. Zhen suddenly felt a bit guilty, and with her younger son asleep, she couldn’t be disturbed! So after tossing out these few words, she hurriedly said, "Xiao Ci is sleeping right now! There’s nothing important, so I’m going to hang up!"

Beep—Beep—

Zhen Yan, speechless, pulled his phone away from his ear and stared blankly at the screen going from lit to dark for a few seconds.

It turns out that after all his asking around, he got nothing, and it only added to his worries! This really is... annoying and irksome!

So after scratching his ear, Zhen Yan still decided—"Screw this! I’m not dealing with it anymore!"

After all, it wasn’t the first day that his sister and mother were at odds! If there really was an issue, then it could wait until it became urgent!
