Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 229: Chapter 212: Puppy Love - The Trendy Frontier?

```

”What???” Luo Qianqian yelled out in surprise, startling her next-door neighbor Luo Shufan and Lin Jiayou, especially Luo Shufan, who thought of his sister’s fainting incident and looked terrified. Both quickly came out and asked, ”What happened?”

”It’s nothing, it’s nothing,” Luo Qianqian quickly snapped back, stunned. ”I was just surprised by the exam results. You two go back to studying.”

Only after recognizing that it was indeed his sister’s voice, did Luo Shufan let go of his worry. Still, he admonished from outside the room, ”Don’t overthink it. The doctor said you need to relax.”

”I know,” Luo Qianqian said impatiently, opening the door, ”I was just a bit shocked, no need to be that worried. Look, I’m totally fine. Brother Jiayou, drag my brother back inside. How can they end class early? This tutor is so irresponsible. You should fire him immediately.”

Lin Jiayou’s mouth twitched as he pulled Luo Shufan back to their room.

”What’s with the doctor?” He Wenyu frowned, puzzled as to how within less than half a year’s time, she couldn’t understand anything that was being said.

”Nothing serious. First, explain your situation to me properly,” Luo Qianqian said seriously as she closed the door, ”Let’s deal with your issue first!”

Looking at Luo Qianqian’s darkened expression, He Wenyu pouted slightly with a hint of grievance, ”It’s all your fault. At the time, you annoyed me, and I thought I definitely must not listen to you, I had to go against your wishes on purpose. And then when school resumed and we were re-assigned classes, we ended up in the same class, even sitting together. We were together day in and day out, and later when he asked me ’do you want to date me?’, I agreed without a second thought, because I knew for sure you would disapprove, and it gave me a sense of achievement at the time to agree...”

”Hmm, and what happened after that?” Luo Qianqian didn’t add much. She had also gone through a phase of rebelling against whatever her mother and brother said, always insisting on doing the opposite.

”After that? There’s not much to it, just like any couple at school, we hung out together every day, ate together, went home together, and occasionally went out on weekends. But now we go out less, I’ve heard his mom enrolled him in a weekend class, so he doesn’t have much free time.”

Luo Qianqian scoffed. A weekend class? More likely daily life lessons for delinquents. And he was keeping it a secret from Xiao Yu, too.

”I see,” Luo Qianqian nodded. ”How far have you two progressed?” she asked curiously, but her gaze on her fingers carried a hint of a threat.

”What do you mean how far?” He Wenyu’s face flushed as she turned her head away.

”Holding hands, hugging, cheek kissing, kissing, and...” Luo Qianqian’s voice grew lower and lower.

”Just holding hands, you’re thinking too much,” He Wenyu quickly cut off Luo Qianqian’s imagination, or her face would burn red with embarrassment.

Luo Qianqian’s face brightened instantly, satisfied, she nodded, ”At least you know what’s important. Stop at that for now, and if you’re still together in college, then consider the next steps.”

He Wenyu nodded as if it were the most natural thing, ”Of course. Although he’s not a bad guy, if you don’t approve of him, he must have his flaws. We’ll wait until you’re satisfied before considering anything else.” He Wenyu smiled sweetly, hugging Luo Qianqian’s shoulder, ”Ah, Qianqian, you’re so squishy, unlike the girls in my class who aren’t soft at all.”

”Get lost, hmph, remember what you said.” Luo Qianqian snorted and then suddenly remembered something, ”You’re in the same class as him?”

He Wenyu’s face drained of color, and she let go of Luo Qianqian’s arm, hanging her head in silence.

”Come on, time for a test,” Luo Qianqian said without hesitation, pulling out a test paper selected by Xu Tianyi and generously handing one to He Wenyu.

”Oh no, let’s keep arguing instead...” He Wenyu moaned as Luo Qianqian ruthlessly pushed her in front of the desk, then looked at the test paper as if it were an alien script, ”This doesn’t seem like what we’re learning now...”

”You even know what we’re learning now? That’s rare.” Looking at the test paper, Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but admire Xu Tianyi’s grasp of her academic progress.

”I do listen in class...”

”What about homework?”

”I’ll go home and get my homework right now!!!” She quickly opened the door, ran downstairs to her room to grab her backpack, and then hurried back upstairs.

Huang Yueran watched her daughter and softly shook her head. Still, having a responsible goddaughter like this made the girl look respectable. A smile crawled up her lips, ”Old He, get up early tomorrow and buy fresh pig trotters!!!”

Looking at the heart drawn on He Wenyu’s notebook, her face was filled with confusion, ”Wouldn’t the teacher say something about this?”

”You’re still young and don’t know, now being in a relationship is very fashionable.” He Wenyu took on a lecturing tone, ”In our school, when a couple gets together, they distribute wedding candies to the whole class. There are three couples in our class now, and they all have very good relationships.”

”Don’t know if you’ve heard this saying.”

”What?”

”Show off your love, and you’ll break up fast.”

”Get lost.” He Wenyu tossed a book at Luo Qianqian, ”But you’re still young, don’t think about these things, just focus on your studies. If you dare to have an early romance, I’ll tell your brother, anyway, you have plenty of brothers at home.”

”Do you think my brother can control me? Brother Jiayou is also in an early romance.” Luo Qianqian spread her hands, ”You guys go ahead and stay on the cutting edge of trends, okay? My brother and I will happily remain out of style.”

”That’s how you should be.” He Wenyu covered her mouth to steal a laugh, ”By the way...” He Wenyu suddenly looked at Luo Qianqian hesitantly.

”What’s wrong?”

”Did you know a girl named Sun Xuan transferred to our school?” She asked with a peculiar expression.

Luo Qianqian suddenly realized and laughed lightly, ”Are you talking about that girl from First Middle School who was cheating on her boyfriend, even with three or four others?” Just thinking about it with her heels she knew what would be said (Xiao Luo: I just love your thoughtful heels).

”So it really is you. I’ve heard it a few times before and thought it was someone with the same name.” He Wenyu wore an expression of surprise, then a cheeky grin, ”I heard that a lot of the handsome guys in your class have fallen under your pomegranate skirt?”

”Nonsense. Besides Xu Tianyi, all the others came to my mom’s wedding. Did you see me give any special treatment to anyone?” Luo Qianqian pouted, ”You better not tell me you couldn’t see from the main table, I saw your gaze fixed on me the whole time.”

He Wenyu, annoyed and embarrassed, punched Luo Qianqian on the shoulder, ”You have the nerve to say that? You didn’t even invite me to join in the fun, and your sister gets along well with me too.”

”Linlin, huh? Her personality is indeed a bit like yours.” Luo Qianqian shook her head, a smile on her face, ”But you’re that kid’s big sister, it’s natural for you to have a good relationship with her. What are you showing off for?”

”Hmph, I act more like a big sister than you, who was such an irresponsible bridesmaid and ran off halfway through.” He Wenyu said indignant.

”You’re one to talk. You didn’t even wear a skirt to my mom’s wedding, hmph.” Luo Qianqian began inflicting her tickle attack upon He Wenyu.

”Oh right, there’s one more thing.” He Wenyu suddenly turned serious, stopping Luo Qianqian’s attack.

Luo Qianqian looked up, puzzled.

”Jingjing is in a relationship now, with Jiang An.”

”What? Is this becoming a trend now? How come I didn’t know?” Luo Qianqian was utterly bewildered.

”It happened on your birthday, and we agreed we’d tell everyone during the Children’s Day celebration,” He Wenyu said calmly.

The next day, Luo Qianqian went to school in a daze, only to see two pieces of chocolate on her desk. She looked back at Pei Yutian with a puzzled face, ”What’s this about?”

”Wedding candies. If you’re in a relationship, you have to give out candies. Du Xue and Li Tianci in our class got together.”

Luo Qianqian’s face was filled with bewilderment. What’s going on? Is this fashionable? It seemed like overnight, everyone around her had started blowing pink bubbles?
