Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1029: Chapter 1009: No Disturbance in the Future

”Can’t really go back?” Zhao Wenxuan looked at the resistant expression on He Wenyu’s face and frowned. This girl was someone he’d been fond of, so when did she drift away from him unknowingly?

”What’s past is past.”

He Wenyu sighed, looking at the young man in front of her, and surprisingly, there was a bit of relief on her face, as if she’d untied some knot in her heart.

”Why?”

”Only kids ask why.”

Zhao Wenxuan was stunned for a long time before he too sighed.

The happiest and carefree memories, are they truly unreachable now? His eyes shifted downwards: ”How have you been recently?”

...

Luo Qianqian looked at the person in front of her, a hint of amusement on her face.

She just felt like it was someone she knew, but she didn’t expect it to be him.

”Zhang Sheng, when did you become so domineering?” Looking at the tattoo stickers on him, Luo Qianqian raised an eyebrow; he wasn’t like this a year ago, was he?

Upon seeing Luo Qianqian, Zhang Sheng quickly discarded the cigarette in his hand and coughed repeatedly: ”So it really is you?”

”Really me? Who else could it be?” Luo Qianqian looked speechless: ”What are you doing here?”

”...I came here to have a smoke.” Zhang Sheng said seriously: ”And you? School’s started, why aren’t you back? What are you wandering around here for?”

Luo Qianqian shrugged, walked over to Zhang Sheng, looked at the cool motorcycle, and the dozen people in the alley: ”Are you here to beat me up or kidnap me?”

”How could that be? What’s our relationship?” Zhang Sheng waved his hand, his eyes passing over Luo Qianqian to look behind her.

Luo Qianqian looked back, where He Wenyu and Zhao Wenxuan were talking.

A bit of confusion on her face: ”Do you like Xiao Yu?”

The next second, Zhang Sheng shook his head like a rattle, waving his hand dismissively.

”How could I? I like those with big...you know...”

”Xiao Yu’s development is quite good.” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes.

”I like those with long, wavy hair...”

Is that one condition or three? Luo Qianqian really wanted to ask this, but considering her age, she held her tongue.

After all... she always had a smart, obedient, and sensible image in front of her friends.

”Short hair can grow, straight hair can be permed, those things don’t matter.” Luo Qianqian smirked.

”I like clingy ones.”

Malt sugars are sticky...

”Those who like you will naturally stick to you, those who don’t like you can’t avoid you fast enough, how would they stick to you?” Luo Qianqian shrugged: ”Just admit it, you like Xiao Yu.”

”Yeah, I like her, so what? So what? I just said, how could there be a second Luo Qianqian?” Zhang Sheng rolled his eyes, turned around, and waved his hand: ”You all head back first, later I’ll treat everyone to BBQ and drinks.”

Watching the people leave, Zhang Sheng frowned: ”I have a cousin, well, he’s not one of those who’s always fighting and causing trouble, but he’s the type, and then, he took a job, someone offered half a million to buy the jade pendant you wear.”

I saw the name and thought it was familiar, so I took the job...

Luo Qianqian nodded: ”Good thing it’s you, because the last group of people is already inside.” She casually pointed behind her, raising an eyebrow: ”Do you know who offered the money to buy it?”

”I didn’t ask, I’ll ask my cousin later.” Zhang Sheng shook his head, glanced in the direction behind him, looked at Luo Qianqian with some embarrassment, and then quietly shifted his gaze away: ”Can you not tell her?”

”Am I that gossipy?” Luo Qianqian tugged on his sleeve, pulling him to squat by the wall: ”Did you see that guy? That’s Xiao Yu’s ex-boyfriend.”

”...I know.” Zhang Sheng rolled his eyes: ”But didn’t they already break up long ago?”

”Long ago? How long ago?” Luo Qianqian frowned.

”I heard him say...it seems like middle school...”

Luo Qianqian squinted, middle school?

”By the way, when are you going back?” Zhang Sheng’s face held a bit of reluctance: ”Can’t I at least treat you to a meal?”

”I’ll definitely come to your celebration meal when you get into college.” Luo Qianqian smiled and patted his shoulder.

She could visibly see the change in his expression.

Immediately frowned.

”I’m going straight to a third-tier college, just need to pay, I can’t compare to you, but I’m still a college student.” Zhang Sheng said, scratching his head embarrassedly.

Luo Qianqian slightly frowned: ”Why?”

”I can’t study anymore, I feel like getting out sooner is more fun than reading.”

Luo Qianqian curved her lips: ”In that case, you’ll never catch up to Xiao Yu.”

Zhang Sheng’s face turned white, furrowing his brows tightly: ”It’s as if I could catch up even if I did things differently.”

”Think about it, far away in a foreign land, Xiao Yu is all alone, you suddenly appear, in the same school, same department, wouldn’t that bring you closer? As a fellow local, a classmate, and a university alumnus, you must understand the principle of proximity, right?”

Listening to Luo Qianqian, Zhang Sheng felt like it did make some sense, lowering his head as he frowned.

Luo Qianqian glanced from afar and saw the two over there still chatting, her brow furrowing.

A gleam flashed in Zhang Sheng’s eyes: ”Could I really?”

”Of course... as long as you get into the same school as her.” Luo Qianqian earnestly replied.

”Oh right.” Luo Qianqian’s lips pressed into a straight line: ”Your cousin, does he have a small gang?”

”Yeah, but it’s not his, and it’s not exactly small, he should be some kind of strategist...what’s up?” Zhang Sheng raised an eyebrow.

Luo Qianqian frowned: ”I want to meet your cousin for a chat.”

”Sure, when? I’ll call him for you.” Zhang Sheng agreed readily.

After all, this matter needs explaining to the cousin anyway.

”Tomorrow? Seven o’clock in the evening, at Apollo Cafe.” It was arranged there last time, so might as well do it there again this time.

”Alright, when does your school start?”

”Tomorrow.”

”Then you...”

”I’m accompanying Xiao Yu to high school, just need to go back to my school for finals, already cleared it.”

What can she do? She’s got connections, enjoying a carefree and easy university life.

”What? Which school? Isn’t Xiao Yu at a girls’ school? And it’s a boarding school...” Zhang Sheng slightly frowned.

Luo Qianqian nodded: ”More or less.” She looked over at He Wenyu, who was already looking relaxed as she came over, nudging Zhang Sheng: ”You should go, don’t forget tomorrow.”

”Okay.” Riding the motorcycle, waving his hand, Zhang Sheng sped off.

In his current appearance, he was really embarrassed to face He Wenyu.

He Wenyu looked at Luo Qianqian standing by the wall, back to the wall, watching the traffic ahead, and then at the row of cigarette butts by the wall, her eyes narrowed into slits.

”Finished talking?” Luo Qianqian looked at He Wenyu’s expression, raised an eyebrow, and didn’t explain.

”Mm.” He Wenyu nodded: ”Let’s go, I’m hungry.”

It’s all over, the future is bright, because there’s no disturbance.

Neither of them asked each other anything, bought food, and went home.
