Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1183 - 706: Going to B University

As Wen Su finished speaking, Mr. Wen’s face darkened, and he waved to Luo Ye, ”Ye’er, who knows when you’ll return once you leave. Go keep Grandma and your aunts company for a while.”

Knowing that the old man wanted to send her out to reprimand Wen Su alone, Luo Ye quickly stated her stance, ”Grandpa, Second Brother’s request is not unreasonable. I know what to do, you can rest assured...”

The old man interrupted her, waving his hand, ”Go out.”

”Yes.” Luo Ye had no choice but to leave.

”Little Su, do you think it’s appropriate to have Ye’er repay the debt you owe?” Mr. Wen’s face was so dark it could drip water.

Wen Su hesitated slightly, ”Grandpa, in families like ours, even if Ye’er doesn’t participate in the mission, it’s not hard to find out the truth. It’s just lending a helping hand. Why isn’t it okay to help?

Of course, my main reason isn’t because of Lu Qingqing. Lu Dongdong is breaking through a new energy technology and is at a critical moment. If he gets distracted and makes a mistake, it would be a great pity.”

Mr. Wen sighed heavily, ”You really pinned a big hat on me. I didn’t say we shouldn’t handle this matter; your mistake was asking Ye’er for help. Do you know how many people are watching her every move? Don’t you know your own sister’s temperament? Little Su, I’m very disappointed in you!”

Wen Su remained silent for a while, then sighed heavily as he figured it out, ”Grandpa, I’m sorry, I really didn’t think it through.”

”Little Su, Grandpa knows you prefer an ordinary person’s life, but being born into a family like ours makes it impossible to live freely like ordinary people.”

”Grandpa, I understand.” Wen Su nodded, ”I really got used to hiding behind my big brother and not having to deal with anything, but from now on, I will take on my own responsibilities.”

”Little Su, it’s not that Grandpa is forcing you...” the old man sighed again, ”The Ye Family treats Ye’er well, but having a maternal home to rely on is still very important.”

Wen Su frowned, ”What are you worried about? Have you discovered something wrong?”

Mr. Wen waved his hand, ”Not really, but the development of a family depends on the younger generation. Your brother’s path is already set, so you have to take on the Wen Family’s responsibilities. Xiao Ke, at most, can just lend you a hand.

As for Little Pumpkin, first of all, he’s young, secondly, his temperament is too soft. I want to send him to military school for some toughening up. His future development will depend on his own growth.

Your father’s generation can still protect the Wen Family for ten more years. It sounds long, but during this time, if you all don’t mature, the Wen Family will decline in no time.

With Ye’er’s character, she can’t possibly turn a blind eye to her maternal family matters after marriage. I don’t want Ye’er to be criticized by her in-laws for protecting her own family.”

After pondering carefully for a while, Wen Su sighed lightly, ”Indeed, who can say for sure if people will change in ten years? Grandpa, I understand now. Next year, I’ll start working at the Wen Family to ease my uncle’s burden.”

”Good, that’s good.” Old Mr. Wen showed a relieved smile. He had always been worried that his decision back then would have hurt Wen Su’s feelings. Now it seemed he was overthinking.

...

Old Mrs. Wen, two aunts, Wen Ke, and Wen Nan were sitting in the living room chatting when they saw Luo Ye come out of the study. They happily waved, ”Ye’er, come.”

Aunt Li Niangying jokingly said, ”Ye’er, you alone top the four of us. As soon as Old Mrs. Wen sees you, her spirits lift instantly.”

”Aunt is jealous of me, hehe...” Luo Ye playfully sat beside Old Mrs. Wen, ”Grandma, Aunt is jealous of how well you treat me.”

”This girl...” Old Mrs. Wen affectionately stroked her head, ”Your grandpa always has things to fuss about, calling Ye’er to the study for no reason...”

Wen Ke pouted and interrupted, ”I wish Grandpa would call me in there too, but unfortunately, I haven’t even gotten a chance to sit in the study.”

Luo Ye glanced at her sideways, ”Grandpa is just being considerate of you, is that not okay?” Seeing Hua Rong smiling at her, Luo Ye moved closer to sit down, ”Little Auntie, are you not nauseous anymore?”

”Occasionally, I still feel a little uncomfortable.” Hua Rong sighed softly, ”No wonder they say you won’t understand your parents’ kindness until you raise children. I haven’t even given birth yet, and I’m already exhausted by it.”

Luo Ye nodded seriously, ”Yes, it must have been so difficult for Grandpa and Grandma to raise Little Uncle. How much hardship must they have endured?”

”This girl...” Old Mrs. Wen shook her head with a smile, ”You’re trying to make fun of your Little Uncle again.”

”Who told him to be so hopeless? Not only does he always worry us, but he also makes Little Aunt upset...” Mou Ye sighed dramatically, ”Little Auntie, men are just big kids. You should be more tolerant, but don’t spoil him too much. When it’s time to scold, scold; when it’s time to hit, hit. If he dares throw a tantrum, Grandma and Grandpa will surely protect you.”

Over there, Wen Ke and Little Pumpkin were already laughing together, and Old Mrs. Wen also found it funny yet helpless. Li Niangying lightly patted Luo Ye, ”If I hadn’t seen you, I’d have thought some old-fashioned old lady was advising her daughter-in-law.”

Hua Rong, however, became serious, ”Ye’er, I returned because I remember the kindness from the family early in the morning, but that doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven him.

If a couple can’t even have basic trust, what’s the point of staying together? I’ve already told him there’s a three-month trial period. If he passes, we’ll stay together; if not, we’ll each go our own way.

However, regardless of what happens between us, I’ll give birth to the baby. I can give him custody, but when the child is young, it will stay with me.”

”Rongrong, what nonsense are you talking about?” Old Mrs. Wen glared at her daughter-in-law, ”The baby in your belly can hear you, aren’t you afraid of hurting the child’s feelings by saying such things?”

”It’s not even formed yet, how could it have feelings.” Hua Rong whispered.

”Even if the baby isn’t formed yet, it can still feel. From now on, you aren’t allowed to say these things in front of the child...”

The little ones exchanged glances quietly, admiring the old lady. Not saying these things in front of the child, doesn’t that mean... there’s no chance to say it?

Wen Tong happened to come downstairs and quickly joined the conversation: ”Mom is right, Rongrong, you can’t say these things in front of the baby anymore. He would be sad.”

”You...” Hua Rong glared at him out of anger, pulling Luo Ye, ”Ye’er, I’ll sleep with you tonight, and for the upcoming days, I’d like to borrow your room for a while, okay?”

”Yes, yes, yes...” Luo Ye nodded continuously. At this moment, the aggrieved pregnant woman was the queen, anything she said she agreed to.

As for what comes next, it depends on little uncle’s own skills. Moving back to the Wen Family is definitely better than staying at the Hua Family, right? Moreover, Hua Rong coming back is a turning point.

Wen Su came out of the study and called Luo Ye out alone. Hesitating for a moment, he reached out and patted her head, ”Ye’er, second brother has been irresponsible.”

”No, I think second brother is actually very responsible...” Luo Ye observed his expression, ”Were you severely scolded by Grandpa?”

”No, Grandpa enlightened me. I’ve been used to being carefree for years, but it’s time to take on responsibility.”

”Actually, the first time I met second brother, I felt that second brother was always deliberately concealing himself. At the time, I wasn’t familiar with you and was embarrassed to ask. Later, when we got closer, I didn’t feel that anymore, so I never asked.

Thinking about it now, my first impression was right. Second brother isn’t used to being carefree; he’s also taken that as a responsibility, like an actor who remains in character after the play ends.”

”No wonder...” Wen Su tapped Luo Ye’s forehead, ”Ye’er, lucky for you, you were born in modern times. If it were ancient times, being so smart... might not have been a good thing.”

”Alright, I’ll take that as a compliment.” Luo Ye laughed lightly as she walked back, ”I won’t chat with you anymore. I need to rest early.”

Wen Su quickly pulled her back, ”About Lu Qingqing’s family matters, Ye’er, it’s better not to get involved. Grandpa will send someone to investigate.”

”Grandpa is overthinking, but sure, we can do both. I guess Grandpa has been planning to do this for a while. He’s just worried about my safety.

Really, just thinking about it with my toes, Director Lei will definitely leave a secret line to protect us. How could he just send Zhao Qianqian and me out without care?”

Wen Su’s eyes quickly filled with laughter, ”Does Ye’er still need protection?”

”Of course, second brother, are you not planning to protect me?” Luo Ye blinked, ”Well, second brother has to protect Sister Qingqing, so you probably won’t have time for me. Big brother is still the best...”

Wen Su smiled bitterly, ”Your mouth sharp as ever, but Grandpa specifically instructed that the Wen Family should only be Ye’er’s help, under no circumstances should we be a burden.”

”Hehe, Grandpa really is on my side.” Mou Ye raised her eyebrows proudly, ”Go back and comfort Sister Qingqing. I won’t take up second brother’s time.” As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly darted off, leaving Wen Su no chance to retort.

...

Early the next morning, Old Master Wen sent Wen Bao to take Luo Ye to B University. As they reached the gate, a jeep spun in from the side, forcing Wen Bao to slam the brakes hard. When they stopped, the cars were only a centimeter apart!

The jeep’s window rolled down, and Zhu Hongyu stuck his head out, ”Little Luo Ye, it really is you! Have you talked things over with your family, and come to give me an answer?”

”Mr. Zhu...”

”Is that how you drive? What if our young lady gets hurt?”

Interrupted, Luo Ye glanced at the flushed and angry Wen Bao, and a smile curved on her lips, ”Mr. Zhu, I’ve known Wen Bao for so many years, and it’s the first time I’ve ever seen him this upset. You’re really something.”

Zhu Hongyu raised an eyebrow, ”With my driving skills, think I’ll cause an accident?”

”What if I had braked a bit slower? What would the situation be now?”

Zhu Hongyu got out of the car and leaned against the door, ”If your driving skills are that bad, are you really fit to be Little Luo Ye’s driver? I mean, are you serious? Such a small thing, and look how scared you got.”
