The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Invitation

After delivering the medicine pills to Huichun Hall, Yiyi was completely focused on her studies, and she handed over all the payment from this batch to her mother.

”Yiyi, keep this money for yourself.”

Yiyi quickly stuffed the wallet into her mother’s hand and said, ”Mom, I’ve already kept some money to buy herbs. As for the rest, you keep it. You should buy more fabric, otherwise the store definitely won’t manage with just this little.

Seeing her mother reluctant to accept the money, Yiyi faked anger and said, ”Mom, do we really need to distinguish between what’s yours and what’s mine between you and me?”

Hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yuejun finally hesitated no more and accepted the money from her daughter, feeling her heart warm.

”Mom, I’m heading back to class now.”

”Alright, go quickly. Luckily, you woke up early this morning, or you would be late.”

Yiyi nodded and smiled, but before she reached the school gate, she saw Zheng Xiangqiao approaching her, ”Yiyi, I’ve finally found you. Ever since we bumped into each other in town last time, we haven’t met. You’re something else, why haven’t you come to find me?”

Seeing Zheng Xiangqiao, Yiyi couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows and said coldly, ”What do you want from me?”

”Yiyi, can’t I look for you even if there’s nothing wrong? We’re good friends, isn’t it normal for me to come looking for you? But this time I do have a reason. I’ve recently found a job and I’d like to treat you to a meal. You must come, at the Kaixin restaurant on the street.”

Hearing this, Yiyi was somewhat surprised.

She really didn’t expect the lazy Zheng Xiangqiao to have found a job. This was something that had never happened before, it seems some things have slowly started to change.

Thinking of this, Yiyi did not refuse and nodded, saying, ”Alright.”

When Yiyi agreed, Zheng Xiangqiao’s eyes lit up. She then smiled and said, ”Then it’s settled, see you at Kaixin restaurant this Saturday noon.”

”Okay.”

Yiyi said faintly, ”I have to go to class, I’m leaving now.”

After saying this, she left without further ado, turning away from Zheng Xiangqiao.

Seeing Yiyi’s indifferent demeanor, Zheng Xiangqiao’s face immediately turned sour.

Originally she wanted to show off to Mo Yiyi that she had found a job as a clerk in a department store, which had been hard for her to get. But unexpectedly, after arriving at school, she overheard two teachers discussing Mo Yiyi, saying her academic performance had improved significantly, and that she was likely to get into college.

Hearing this, Zheng Xiangqiao’s eyes were full of jealousy and resentment.

Obviously, they all grew up in the same village, why can Mo Yiyi go to high school and university, while she has to start working early to make money. Finding a job as a department store salesperson took a lot of effort, but if Mo Yiyi graduates, she’ll definitely find a much better job.

Why should it be that way? Mo Yiyi used to have a worse life than hers, now she’s becoming superior. So she immediately changed her plan and invited Mo Yiyi for lunch together.

On Saturday, Yiyi arrived at Kaixin restaurant on time, surprisingly, besides Zheng Xiangqiao, Zhang Liangyue was also there.

Seeing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.

”Yiyi, you’re here, come sit down. The food in this restaurant is quite good, make sure you eat more.”

Zhang Liangyue beside her looked at Yiyi in surprise, only to feel that the girl in front of him was strikingly beautiful, with porcelain white skin, exquisite features, and a tall, slender figure that was dazzling. Is this really Zheng Xiangqiao’s friend Mo Yiyi? Why does she seem like a completely different person?

But soon, Zhang Liangyue got excited again.

Originally he was somewhat repelled by Zheng Xiangqiao’s suggestion, but seeing Mo Yiyi now, he suddenly became quite eager.

”Yiyi, I and Xiang Qiao were just talking about you, and here you are, please have a seat.”

Seeing Zhang Liangyue’s reaction, Zheng Xiangqiao’s face immediately darkened.

She thought it was one thing for Zhang Liangyue to be coaxed into luring Mo Yiyi, but it was another for Zhang Liangyue himself to be interested in Mo Yiyi. At this moment, she suddenly regretted, unsure whether this decision was right.

Yiyi looked at the two with varying expressions and lowered her head, curling her lips into a smile.

This was somewhat familiar. Each time Zheng Xiangqiao asked her to meet, Zhang Liangyue started to appear more like a lingering nuisance, making her intensely annoyed until Zheng Xiangqiao resorted to low tactics.

Thinking of this, Yiyi’s expression turned icy cold.

Zheng Xiangqiao suppressed the fury in her heart and reluctantly forced a smile, looking at Yiyi, said, ”Yiyi, have a look at the menu and order more of what you like.”

Yiyi took the menu without hesitation and ordered several meat dishes.

Seeing Yiyi ordering dishes like braised pork and fish, Zheng Xiangqiao felt her heart ache, yet had to put up a happy front, but her eyes were void of joy, only coldness remained.

Yiyi pretended not to notice, and once the food arrived, she happily ate the dishes, and since someone was treating, she certainly wouldn’t hold back.

”Yiyi, don’t just keep eating, I heard your academic performance has improved significantly, perhaps you’ll even go to college,”

Seeing Zheng Xiangqiao’s probing look, Yiyi couldn’t help but smile.

”Yes, I’ll continue to go to college.”

Hearing this, and seeing Mo Yiyi’s confident and composed face, Zheng Xiangqiao felt a burning jealousy in her heart, unable to stand Mo Yiyi having a better life than her.

”Yiyi is really amazing.”

Zhang Liangyue praised with a full smile from the side.

Hearing this, Yiyi glanced at him indifferently and said, ”Do I know you well? Please don’t casually use my name.” Today she came here to see what Zheng Xiangqiao was up to, but had no interest in being irked by them.

Seeing Yiyi’s cold face, Zhang Liangyue was momentarily stunned and felt very displeased. It has been a long time since someone ignored him like this. He’s from the city, a teacher, failing to acknowledge how many people yearn to become his acquaintance, yet this girl before him was acting indifferent.

However, it was precisely Yiyi’s attitude that further sparked his competitive spirit.

Seeing Zhang Liangyue’s embarrassment, Zheng Xiangqiao’s lips curled slightly, eyes filled with irony, but since she made a decision, she couldn’t disrupt her plan, ”Yiyi, Brother Zhang is complimenting you, don’t be so indifferent.”

Upon hearing this Yiyi put down her chopsticks, stood up, and said, ”Since you’re treating me to a meal, now that the meal is over, I’ll be leaving.”
