The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 400: Chapter 399: Hope We’re Not Interrupting

Hearing Wei Hanliang’s words, Ding Yuejun nodded and said, ”Yes, I’m here to buy some groceries.”

Wei Hanliang replied, ”The groceries here are indeed quite fresh.” As he spoke, he glanced somewhat apologetically at Ding Yuejun and said, ”I’m really sorry about last time, I didn’t expect my wife to say those things. I truly apologize.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun quickly said, ”It’s okay, last time wasn’t your fault, you don’t need to apologize. Besides, your wife has already apologized.” Although Zheng Xiangxin had apologized reluctantly at that time, she at least did apologize.

Seeing Ding Yuejun say this, Wei Hanliang couldn’t help but smile and said, ”Alright then, I won’t say more apologies. If there’s a chance next time, please let your family join us for a meal as an apology gift from us.”

”There’s really no need.”

Seeing Ding Yuejun insist, Wei Hanliang didn’t say more, ”Okay, go ahead with your shopping, I’ll head back first.”

”Take care, Mr. Wei.”

Ding Yuejun smiled and bid farewell to Wei Hanliang. After the man walked away, she turned around and continued walking forward.

However, at the street corner, which she didn’t notice, Zheng Xiangxin was tightly watching from that side. She had just clearly observed the interaction between Wei Hanliang and Ding Yuejun. Even though she couldn’t hear what they were saying, just seeing the two of them chatting amiably made her tremble with jealousy. She hid in the shadows, watching Ding Yuejun shop, and only emerged from her hiding spot after Ding Yuejun had left.

”Ding Yuejun, you bitch, I won’t let you have your way.”

Zheng Xiangxin clenched her fists, her expression twisted with rage.

On the other side, after returning home, Ding Yuejun happily began preparing things. Seeing Yiyi return, she quickly waved her over and said, ”Yiyi, take a look at these and see if you like them. If you don’t, I’ll go buy more tomorrow.”

Seeing so much stuff in front of her, Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh and said, ”Mom, you bought too much.”

”It’s not too much, really. There are so many of you going this time, I’m worried it won’t be enough. Tomorrow, I’ll check the streets again and buy some more stuff.”

”Mom, it’s really enough. Zhirong and Er Ya also said they’ll buy things, so there’ll definitely be enough. Plus, we’re only going for two days and one night, we can’t eat that much.” Yiyi, seeing her mother eager to buy more, quickly persuaded her.

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun said, ”Alright, I won’t buy more, but you still need to confirm with Zhirong and Er Ya. In case they didn’t buy anything, what we have might not be enough.”

”Mom, I got it.”

Only after Yiyi made the call and knew that Wei Zhirong and Fei Erya had bought plenty of food did Ding Yuejun feel relieved.

On Saturday morning, Gu Tingyu came over quite early. He greeted Old Master Ding and Ding Yuejun first, and only then did he look at Yiyi. His gaze was filled with an unfathomable tenderness.

Yiyi was also very happy to see Gu Tingyu. She quickly ran up with a smile and asked, ”When did you get back? Did you arrive home last night?”

”Yes, I got home in the middle of the night yesterday.”

Hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but express concern: ”Won’t you be tired today for the trip, since you didn’t get enough sleep? Why don’t you rest here for a bit and I’ll wake you when it’s almost time.”

”No need, I can sleep in the car later. Besides, even if I don’t sleep all night, I can still hold up.”

Feeling a bit sorry for her prospective son-in-law, Ding Yuejun quickly went to the kitchen to make him some sweet egg soup, ”Tingyu, have a bowl later. You must eat breakfast heartily.”

Seeing this, Gu Tingyu naturally nodded. He not only drank the sweet egg soup but also ate a large plate of meat buns.

”Mom, we’re full.”

Seeing her mother still serving them buns and pancakes, Yiyi quickly stood up and said.

Seeing that the two had indeed eaten quite a bit, Ding Yuejun didn’t insist anymore and just said, ”Later, double-check to see if you’ve forgotten anything.”

”Mom, I’ve already checked, nothing’s missing.”

”That’s good, you should head out now so as not to keep others waiting.”

At this time, Old Master Ding glanced at Gu Tingyu and said, ”It’s fine to go out and have fun, but you must be careful.”

”Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’ll protect Yiyi well.”

Old Master Ding gave him a sidelong glance and said, ”You definitely must protect Yiyi well, but you two aren’t married yet, so there are certain things you need to be mindful of.”

Though Old Master Ding didn’t say it outright, everyone understood the implication.

Yiyi couldn’t help blushing and glanced at Old Master Ding, motioning for him to stop. They were aware of it themselves.

However, Old Master Ding paid no heed to Yiyi and kept his eyes straight on Gu Tingyu.

Gu Tingyu seriously replied, ”Rest assured, Grandpa, I understand.”

Seeing Gu Tingyu’s response, Old Master Ding was also relieved. He knew Gu Tingyu’s character but was still concerned for Yiyi—he couldn’t help but speak. Fortunately, his beloved granddaughter had found a dependable partner, ”Alright, it’s getting late, you better get going.”

When Yiyi and Gu Tingyu arrived at the meeting point, Fei Erya and Fan Qianshu were already there.

”Yiyi...”

Fei Erya was very happy to see Yiyi and quickly waved to her.

Yiyi approached with a smile and asked, ”Er Ya, we haven’t seen each other for so long. How have you been lately?”

”I’m good, but since sophomore year started, school has been more demanding, so I’m busier than before. What about you guys, do you have many classes each week?”

”We have more classes than in freshman year, but it’s manageable.”

The two girls hadn’t seen each other for a while, so they felt they had endless topics to chat about.

On the other side, Gu Tingyu and Fan Qianshu found themselves with little to say after their greeting. Eventually, Gu Tingyu shared Elder Guan’s last situation with him, concluding with, ”Elder Guan was a heroic figure in his youth, but in his old age, he became confused. It’s truly a shame.”

Fan Qianshu nodded in agreement and said, ”Yes, it really is a shame.”

Thinking back on his previous admiration for Elder Guan, he couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful; being too greedy can cause one to lose direction.

As they conversed, the Wei siblings also arrived, but they had brought someone else along.

”Yiyi, Er Ya, sorry we’re late.”

Seeing everyone was there, Wei Zhirong quickly ran over to apologize, her eyes bright and a smile on her lips. It was clear she was in a good mood. ”Yiyi, Er Ya, we have an extra person this time, but you should know him too—it’s Xie Yuanzhou.”
