The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 139: Chapter 139: Like Him

Hearing her daughter’s voice, Ding Yuejun quickly looked up and smiled, saying, ”Yiyi, it’s fine if I come over. You don’t need to get involved. This place is really big. I estimate it can’t be cleaned in one day. I can come back tomorrow.”

”Mom, since I’m free anyway, let’s clean together. Once school starts, I might not have much time,” Yiyi said, picking up a cloth and starting to wipe the windows.

Seeing that her daughter had already started, Ding Yuejun didn’t say more.

While working, the mother and daughter talked.

Ding Yuejun had been pondering for several days and finally asked the question she had on her mind.

”Yiyi, I noticed you seem quite familiar with that Gu Tingyu. Are you... are you guys very close?” Originally, she wanted to ask if her daughter had feelings for him but felt it was too direct, so she posed the question more tactfully.

Seeing her mother asking carefully, Yiyi openly said, ”Mom, I think Gu Tingyu is great, someone worth entrusting my life to.”

What happened in the past life wasn’t Gu Tingyu’s fault, yet he decided to be responsible for her. Even when she entered Medicine Valley, he was committed to saving her, keeping his distance from other women in the meantime. Such a man is responsible, a man worth entrusting one’s life to.

Hearing this from her daughter, Ding Yuejun stopped what she was doing, staring at Yiyi in astonishment and asking, ”Do you mean... you like that Gu Tingyu?”

”Yes, I like him.”

Yiyi admitted it without hesitation.

”Thud...”

The cloth in Ding Yuejun’s hand fell into the basin. After recovering from her surprise, she said, ”Yiyi, this period is crucial for you. You... you should focus more on your studies.”

”Mom, don’t worry. I’ll definitely study hard. I must get into college so I can be closer to Gu Tingyu.”

”Yiyi, you...”

Hearing her daughter say this, Ding Yuejun suddenly felt a bit heartbroken. So her daughter felt she wasn’t worthy of Gu Tingyu and wanted to strive harder?

In fact, from the conversation between Gu Tingyu and that Housekeeper Fang, she already knew the Gu Family in Shangjing must be quite powerful. So has her daughter become self-conscious?

”Yiyi, actually... we don’t necessarily have to find someone with such good conditions. We can completely find someone whose conditions match ours. In the future, Mom will earn money earnestly and prepare a good dowry for you. By then, the man’s family won’t have any opinions about you, and you won’t feel inferior.”

Hearing this from her mother, Yiyi quickly said, ”Mom, you don’t need to prepare a dowry for me. Besides, I’m not feeling inferior. I just think I can become better. That way, standing beside Gu Tingyu would be more fitting because he’s excellent himself.”

Talking about Gu Tingyu, Yiyi’s eyes sparkled, making her already bright eyes more dazzling.

Seeing her daughter like this, Ding Yuejun knew Yiyi was serious.

”Yiyi, do you really like Gu Tingyu that much?”

”Mom, I know you’re worried, but rest assured, even if I really like Gu Tingyu, I won’t let myself be aggrieved.”

Although her daughter said this, Ding Yuejun still felt a bit worried.

”Mom, I’m not even considering these things right now. The only thing I need to focus on is how to get into a good university, so you don’t need to worry.”

Seeing her mother worry in advance, Yiyi found it both funny and endearing.

”It’s good that you’re thinking like this. Indeed, your studies are the most important thing right now.”

Ding Yuejun smiled after hearing this but still kept the matter in her heart. She suddenly felt she needed to work hard, too. Only if they got better could her daughter have more confidence.

Yiyi didn’t know that just because she said she liked Gu Tingyu, her mother, Ding Yuejun, set an enormous goal in her heart.

Originally, Ding Yuejun wanted to ask many more questions, like when her daughter started liking Gu Tingyu or what exactly she liked about him, or why she was so set on him.

But upon seeing her daughter’s bright, determined expression, Ding Yuejun didn’t ask any more.

Her daughter had always been a person with ideas and judgment, and she trusted her daughter.

Even though the mother and daughter chatted while working, their hands didn’t slow down, and in one day, they cleaned the entire courtyard inside and out.

”Yiyi, shall we invite your sister and the others over tomorrow? Having a new home deserves to be shared with them.”

Yiyi smiled and nodded in agreement.

The next day, Ding Yuejun invited Mo Xiaohong’s family to their new home for a meal.

”Mom, Yiyi, is this what you bought?”

Looking at the large courtyard, Mo Xiaohong felt it was incredible. It only seemed like a New Year’s time had passed, and the family already bought a house.

Not only Mo Xiaohong, but even Zeng Jiahe was quite surprised.

He was more familiar with Houshan Town, so he understood the rent and housing prices. Even if the owner was eager to sell, this courtyard house wouldn’t be cheap. He really didn’t expect his in-laws to have such capability, and it gave him some pressure.

The happiest one among them was Mo Shan, who ran around, full of curiosity about every part of the courtyard.

Yiyi led Mo Xiaohong’s family around the courtyard, while Ding Yuejun almost finished cooking. After the family had their meal, they sat and chatted for a while.

”Mom, Yiyi, we should head back now.”

After Mo Xiaohong’s family left, Yiyi and her mother started tidying up again, then finally went back to their rooms to rest.

The two days flew by quickly, and by Monday, Yiyi was back at school, carrying her backpack.

Though it was the last semester of the third year, the first class on the first day was still relatively relaxing, and all the students listened attentively.

After the morning classes were over, Yiyi planned to take Fei Erya home for lunch.

Unexpectedly, Yang Liu was waiting for Yiyi at the school gate.

”Yiyi, Er Ya, over here.”

Hearing Yang Liu, Yiyi and Fei Erya quickly approached.

”Teacher, why are you here?”

Hearing this from Yiyi, Yang Liu was briefly at a loss for words, finally saying somewhat reluctantly, ”Yiyi, I specifically came to find you.”

Fei Erya heard this and quickly smiled, saying, ”Teacher, Yiyi, then I’ll head back first.” She waved her hand, saying goodbye to the two of them.

At this moment, Yang Liu organized her thoughts and said to Yiyi, ”Yiyi, could you take a look at A Cheng’s sister for me?”

Yiyi raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and said, ”This seems a bit inconvenient. I’m here, and Brother Fang’s sister is in Shangjing. It’s hard for me to have an opportunity to meet her.”

Yang Liu hurriedly said, ”Don’t worry about that. Fang Can has already come from Shangjing.”
