Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 637: Chapter 378: Choice (2)

”Hehe...” Luo Ye chuckled, feeling a bit embarrassed. ”I was just lacking some confidence, you know. Actually, I was pretty set on not joining Fierce Tiger at first.

But after giving it more thought, I reckoned that going to Fierce Tiger would offer many conveniences I don’t have in Team A, like the freedom to travel, which is a very tempting condition.

After all, there’s more than just Wenxin Garden under my name. Sometimes, having that freedom is more important to me than anything else.

Plus, if I had that freedom, I could visit Grandpa’s place more often and make up for the filial piety my mom hasn’t been able to show for all the years she’s been away.

These past few days, I’ve been struggling with whether joining Fierce Tiger would mean I’m deviating from my original intention of becoming a soldier. Until today, it suddenly dawned on me that what I need to do is not to fret over the formality, but to practically consider which choice would more conveniently allow me to take care of family and friends.”

”I knew Ye’er would figure it out on her own.” Ye Xuan affectionately ruffled her hair. ”Joining Fierce Tiger and expanding your social circle can only be beneficial.

Of course, the downside is that Ye’er will have to strive for everything on her own; neither I nor Captain Jiang can watch your back anymore.”

”Have some faith in my abilities,” Luo Ye sighed with relief. ”I don’t have to be on tenterhooks anymore. By the way, Yang Xing came to see me, told me all about his plans, and even left the antidote with me.”

”That means he’s really going all out now,” Ye Xuan shook his head. ”Feng Yuning’s personality is quite like Feng Tianzhi’s, just that Feng Tianzhi has moral boundaries in everything, whereas she plays by the rule ’if you’re with me, you’ll prosper; go against me, and you’re doomed.’

Ever since Wang Liqing took over Furma in Sha City, Old Sir Yang started to have some ideas. He thought of winning over the Wu Family through her. It’s likely Feng Yuning misinterpreted Old Sir Yang’s intentions, thinking to secure a status for the child in her womb, hence she made a drastic move. What a shame that she was too obvious, and with Yang Xing’s intelligence, how could he not have guessed?”

Luo Ye widened her eyes incredulously: ”When did you find out?”

”The moment Wang Liqing had an accident, I sent the Ye Family intelligence team to thoroughly investigate. Since it involved the Wu Family, we were worried there might be something fishy. However, it turned out to be just a bloody case triggered by a woman’s jealousy.” Ye Xuan shook his head and sighed. ”With such a woman, it’s hard to say whether it would be a blessing or a curse for Yang Songping to marry her back home.”

Luo Ye pondered for a moment and asked, ”Yang Xing has changed so drastically; could it be that Yang Songping knew it was Feng Yuning all along and helped to cover it up?”

Ye Xuan nodded, ”That’s likely. The case was cleanly swept under the rug, and Wang Liqing’s family had long declined. They were completely powerless in this matter.”

Luo Ye snorted, ”Men are indeed fickle. But at least this confirms that what Yang Xing said today is true, and the medicine could be real as well. However, no matter what, since we know about his plans, we can’t let him know...”

”Ye’er...” Ye Xuan looked at Luo Ye with a wry smile, not sure what to say.

Luo Ye chuckled, ”You’re an exception.”

Ye Xuan playfully asked, ”What about Luo Feng?”

Luo Ye shot him a glance, ”Isn’t that obvious? My brother is, of course, an exception too.”

”You...” Ye Xuan helplessly stroked her head and handed her the phone. ”Now that you’ve made up your mind, go ahead and notify Chairman Lin.”

”I got it,” Luo Ye pouted. ”You just want to say that I need to recognize my own position and stop troubling the big chief to condescend.”

Ye Xuan: ”...” It seems that being unreasonable is a privilege of women in love.

Vice Chairman Lin on the phone was naturally extremely happy. He laughed heartily, saying he’d immediately inform the school authorities to lift her restrictions and return her phone, promising to process the paperwork right away and urging her to quickly go take six two-inch bareheaded color photos for urgent use!

After hanging up, Luo Ye, rubbing her forehead, felt conflicted: ”Why do I feel like in Vice Chairman Lin’s eyes, I’m just a rebel?”

”He’s worried about the cooked duck flying away, of course, he wants to wrap things up quickly. Let’s go, I’ll take you to the photo studio. Luckily, I don’t have much to do today, I can be your dedicated chauffeur, how about that?”

”There are still rules to follow. I’ll go to the captain’s office to ask for leave first and get my phone back. Meanwhile, you wait for me in the parking lot.” As Luo Ye stood up, she added, ”From this moment on, I’m free. Sigh, when I come back, I’ll have to explain properly to Star Manipulating Moonlight and hope they won’t be mad at me.”

When Luo Ye went to request leave, the principal’s call had already reached Team Five’s office. Hang Menglin’s gaze towards Luo Ye was a mixture of complexity and jealousy.

She wanted to go to Fierce Tiger too, but when she sought Vice Chairman Lin who admired her so much, he told her she wasn’t qualified!

This young girl, ten years her junior, was about to climb over her head, which certainly made her feelings complex!

Feng Tianzhi, on the other hand, was very happy. Since the day he advised Luo Ye, he hadn’t mentioned it again. Days passed without Luo Ye taking any action, and he was actually worried.

Now, finally, the matter was settled!

Luo Ye returned to her dormitory at five-thirty in the afternoon, feeling thrilled. After Ye Xuan took her to take those two-inch photos at the photo studio, she was encouraged by the photographer to take a set of portraits.

From the photographer’s gleaming eyes, it was clear how happy he was to have these two models come his way.

After the shoot, he generously offered the portrait set for free, saying: ”Artists love beauty the most, and having encountered such a handsome guy and a beautiful lady is a great blessing from heaven.”

As they left, Luo Ye curled her lips, ”It’s just colored pupils, right? I’ll wear purple colored contacts next time and see if his gaze warms up to me by three degrees!”
