The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 468: Chapter 467: Unexpected Encounter

Ding Yuejun saw Yiyi and Fei Erya return, and quickly said with a smile, ”Yiyi, Erya, you’ve finished visiting and are back! Sit down and rest for a bit, dinner will be ready soon.”

”Thank you, Aunt Ding.”

Hearing Fei Erya’s words, Ding Yuejun quickly smiled and said, ”Erya, why are you being so polite with me? Alright, sit with Yiyi for a bit. I’ll go check if the food is ready in the kitchen.”

Shortly, Ding Yuejun returned, and Old Master Ding came along with her.

Fei Erya, seeing Old Master Ding, was still a bit timid. After all, the old man had a commanding presence that made him appear somewhat serious.

However, when Old Master Ding saw Fei Erya, he kindly smiled and said, ”No need to feel restrained, just treat it as your own home.”

Seeing this from Old Master Ding, Fei Erya quickly nodded with a smile, feeling much more relaxed.

Soon, the food was served. They chatted and laughed throughout the meal, after which Fei Erya followed Yiyi to her room.

”Yiyi, I’m not going home this holiday because... because Qianshu plans to have me spend the New Year at his place.” At the end of her sentence, Fei Erya felt a little embarrassed, as she and Fan Qianshu had only recently met the parents, and she felt their relationship might be progressing a bit fast.

Yiyi, hearing this, smiled and said, ”If Fan Qianshu is inviting you to their home for the New Year, it means their whole family has accepted you and welcomed you. So that’s great! Going to the Fan Family for New Year is okay, but no need to stay overnight. After all, you have a place to stay in Shangjing. However...”

Yiyi couldn’t help but ask,

”Did your dad agree? If you’re spending the New Year at the Fan Family, your dad might feel lonely at home by himself.” Fei Zhangda had long since divorced Yan Jie, so if Fei Erya didn’t return home, he truly would be alone.

Upon hearing Yiyi’s concern, Fei Erya sighed and said, ”I’m also worried that my dad might feel lonely at home, which is why I haven’t agreed to Qianshu yet.”

Seeing Fei Erya’s conflicted expression, Yiyi suggested, ”Why not invite Uncle to Shangjing for New Year? The festive atmosphere here is wonderful, and he could experience the Shangjing New Year spirit.”

Hearing this, Fei Erya seriously considered it before saying, ”Alright, I’ll ask my dad first. If he agrees, we’ll celebrate in Shangjing. If he doesn’t want to come, then I’ll go home to keep him company for New Year and not go to Qianshu’s.”

Seeing that Fei Erya had made a decision, Yiyi nodded with a smile.

After wrapping up this conversation, Fei Erya and Yiyi moved on to talk about other things, eventually touching on Ding Yuejun’s birthday.

”Erya, what do you think I should prepare for my mother?”

Yiyi had been thinking about this lately but hadn’t settled on a gift. Meeting Fei Erya and chatting today, she naturally asked for her opinion, thinking an extra perspective might spark some ideas.

Fei Erya thought seriously and finally suggested, ”How about buying Aunt Ding a handbag? I’ve seen many people on the street with beautiful handbags lately, and I think Aunt Ding might like one too.”

Hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh, ”Why didn’t I think of that? Alright, I’ll get my mom a handbag.”

There seem to be some handcrafted leather and sheepskin bags available now. I must choose a nice one for my mother then.

After chatting for another while, Fei Erya went back.

Yiyi began to study new herbal recipes, as well as some pois...ons.

Having faced several dangers, she felt pois...ons could be quite useful and might come in handy during critical times. However, new herbal recipes weren’t easy to develop, while pois...ons were relatively easy to concoct. After all, among the recipes Yiyi remembered, there were quite a few for pois...ons.

Seeing the time was getting late, she stopped her research and tidied up before setting it aside.

The next day, after breakfast, Yiyi went to school for her classes.

”Yiyi, has something happened at home recently? I noticed you took a few more days off last week.”

Tao Cuizhu, upon seeing Yiyi, could not help but ask with concern.

Yiyi, upon hearing this, smiled and said, ”Everything is fine now; it’s all been resolved.”

Hearing this, Tao Cuizhu didn’t pursue further but instead shared the progress of the lessons in recent days with her. Given Yiyi’s academic performance, there was no worry, ”You have good grades, so you’ll be fine in the final exams. Just spend some time catching up on the notes from these days.”

Cao Panpan, nearby, nodded in agreement, ”Yes, Yiyi’s grades are good, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

Feng Yudan was the most anxious one.

”Oh... With final exams approaching, I have no idea how I’ll do this time.” Although she had made significant progress compared to before, she still felt inferior to Yiyi and Tao Cuizhu.

Wei Xiweng, hearing Feng Yudan’s words, gave her a glance and said, ”You must believe in yourself; we’ve all seen your efforts this semester, so continue working hard for good results.”

Feng Yudan unexpectedly blurted out, ”Wow... Xiwen, I just realized your stern look is really beautiful.”

Wei Xiweng, with her long beautiful hair and a charming, delicate face, was very recognizable, and the playful stern look she gave just now was indeed quite beautiful.

The others nodded in agreement, ”Yes, Xiwen is indeed very pretty.”

Wei Xiweng, hearing this, couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless, ”Yudan, we were talking about you, and how did it switch to me? Don’t think you can brush this off; we’ll ensure you study hard in the coming days.”

Feng Yudan quickly nodded and said, ”Okay, okay, I’ll definitely study hard.”

Laughing and chatting, the group walked towards the classroom.

The first class today was Professor Qian’s course on Chinese herbal medicine. Once they sat down, they hurriedly took out their books.

Since it was near the end of the semester, the courses were pretty much wrapped up. After discussing a few key points, Professor Qian began reviewing with the students.

Yiyi listened intently, taking many notes throughout the morning.

”Yiyi, are you going to have lunch in the cafeteria?”

Hearing Tao Cuizhu’s question, Yiyi shook her head and said, ”I won’t be eating in the cafeteria today. I have some errands to run downtown at noon.”

”Alright, hurry off then.”

Tao Cuizhu and the others didn’t inquire further. After bidding Yiyi goodbye, they headed straight to the cafeteria.

Meanwhile, Yiyi went into town to look at bags.

There weren’t many bag shops nowadays, nor a vast selection. After looking at several, none caught Yiyi’s eye. She was about to head back to school when she bumped into Zhuang Caixin.

Zhuang Caixin saw Yiyi and quickly approached with a smile, ”Yiyi, what brings you here? Don’t you have classes today?”

Seeing Zhuang Caixin, Yiyi smiled and replied, ”I came to buy something, so I came here during lunch break. I’ll be heading back to school soon.”
