Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 785 - 784: Focused Strike

Han Mingyue’s mind stirred! And then an idea suddenly burst forth from her lips.

"You could try adapting my novel first!"

Zhen Yu was startled by her words, and then she felt as if she had pushed open a door to a new world...

It was like a moment of revelation! Zhen Yu suddenly found another kind of possibility between her and Han Mingyue—Love!

Another way for her to collaborate closely with Han Mingyue and grow together!

And she found... the most suitable path for herself, where she could better utilize her talent in painting and calligraphy!

"Why didn’t I think of this earlier?! It’s like not seeing what’s under my nose..."

Han Mingyue: "It’s not too late now that you’ve thought of it."

Zhen Yu nodded, "Yeah! I’ve always known that my talent in painting and calligraphy is much stronger than in writing! It’s just that I could never think of what I could do with them! But now... I feel like I’ve finally found the path I should take..."

Han Mingyue asked very seriously, "...Comic artist?"

"Yes! Comic artist!" Zhen Yu said confidently: "I will definitely turn your books into the hottest works!"

"Then go for it!" After saying this, Han Mingyue raised her hand and smoothed Zhen Yu’s untidy hair, "But now it’s very late. We should go to sleep."

Zhen Yu looked up absently at the clock, "Ah? Oh my gosh! I need to wash up!"

"Pfft..." Zhen Yu in such a fluster was not a common sight, so Han Mingyue couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

——

Because Monday morning was all compulsory classes, the next day, Han Mingyue and Zhen Yu got up early to rush back to school.

It’s the morning rush hour for work, so taking a taxi was out of the question!

Luckily, Zhen Yu’s house was close to the school, but even so, it took them over half an hour of walking to reach their respective dorm buildings...

The reason they had to return to their dorms first was that this overnight stay had been so sudden, and all their books for class were still in the dorms!

But to be honest, they were a bit late coming back. Usually, at this time, they would have been seated in the classroom.

When Zhen Yu opened the door to the dorm, she still saw her three roommates.

They were all dressed and ready to leave, but they were all sitting on the beds or stools in the lower bunks!

None of them had left...

Shi Mei and You Qing each had a backpack, while Sun Shuhan slung one over each shoulder!

Zhen Yu: "What are you all doing..."

"Ah, you’re finally back!" Shi Mei was the first to jump off the stool and rushed to the door, "We would have been worried to death if you hadn’t come back!"

You Qing also immediately stood up, "Right! Didn’t you say you’d be back last night when you called?"

"Let’s go! We can talk on the way." Sun Shuhan moved towards Zhen Yu in her usual unhurried manner, but her words were urging everyone to leave.

So Zhen Yu had no choice but to take her backpack, watched You Qing lock the door, and walked with them towards the second teaching building.

After they left the dormitory area, Zhen Yu couldn’t help but ask, "Why didn’t you go to the classroom to wait for me?"

Hearing this, the three roommates exchanged looks with each other, none of them speaking immediately.

——

Their strange reaction made Zhen Yu instantly sense something was wrong!

So she directly asked: "Is there something concerning me that you find difficult to speak about?"

Since she had asked, the three roommates couldn’t keep quiet forever.

Eventually, You Qing, the dorm monitor, took the lead. Her expression was apologetic, but she bravely asked, "Zhen Yu! You and Han Mingyue didn’t come back to the school last night, and, um... you know what I mean, right?"

Zhen Yu, of course, understood! And she got it instantly!

But being asked such a private question in broad daylight, even the always composed Zhen Yu could hardly bear it.

So her face turned bright red at once! Then after opening and closing her mouth several times, she finally managed to utter two words.

"...No!"

There were three audible sighs of relief, one after another, leaving Zhen Yu nearly overwhelmed with bewilderment.

She glanced from one to the other, then finally asked confusedly, "Why are you all so worried about this?"

Before she finished speaking, Shi Mei blurted out, "Because we were afraid you’d be taken advantage of before we got the story clear!"

"?" Zhen Yu was confused, "What story wasn’t clear?"

"It’s about your boyfriend, who now, according to others, is the boyfriend of the student council president!" Sun Shuhan spoke in a tone neither light nor heavy, as if discussing trivial matters. However, the content was somewhat startling.

"Oh... you mean that rumor!" Zhen Yu finally understood that her roommates had also heard the gossip.

——

With just a few more steps before entering the teaching building, You Qing couldn’t help but seize the last moments to ask, "Has Han Mingyue come clean to you!? So this means the rumor is false, right!? What do you plan to do?"

Zhen Yu nodded, "Yes, it’s false! As for what I plan... can going to a lecture at the literature club with him on Thursday count?"

"It counts! That’s a great idea!" Shi Mei immediately agreed: "The rumor started with a female student from the literature club! You should take a stand against them! Not only should you go this Thursday, we’ll also go with you! Right, girls?!"

"Right! We’ll all go together! To show support for Zhen Yu." You Qing agreed and then suddenly sized Zhen Yu up and down.

She then said, "This outfit won’t do! We don’t have classes this afternoon, let’s go shopping! I must—"

Zhen Yu quickly interrupted You Qing, "That really won’t work! I have things to do this afternoon!"

Sun Shuhan: "Then tomorrow afternoon! We don’t have classes then either."

Zhen Yu was exasperated, "Do I really have to go?"

"No way!" Shi Mei was the first to object, "You have to beat them in all aspects! Not just with height! But with figure! With beauty! You two remember this! On Thursday, I’m definitely taking Zhen Yu to get her hair done!"

Now Zhen Yu really could only cover her face with her hands.

"Please! Have mercy, leave me be..."

"Nonsense! We’re doing all this for you..."

But before You Qing could finish her retort, she was interrupted by Sun Shuhan.

"We’re almost at the classroom! No more talking... looks like we can only sit at the back today!"
