Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl
Chapter 126: Confession Scene

Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Confession Scene

Just in time, her partner came over, so Zhen Yu stood still for a while, thinking that it wouldn’t be bad to go over their lines together.

Wang Meng placed his jacket down and hurriedly walked toward Zhen Yu. Feeling her gaze on him, Wang Meng got a bit excited and took a deep breath right after standing in front of her.

"Nervous?" Zhen Yu asked him with concern, sensing his behavior, although she herself felt a bit nervous too.

Zhen Yu was inwardly drumming her fingers, thinking that today was just a rehearsal and it felt okay, but she had no idea if she would become as nervous as Wang Meng when it came to the actual performance tomorrow.

Indeed, Wang Meng was quite nervous; after all, with his last girlfriend, he hadn’t formally confessed or sent a love letter or anything; she had agreed right away when he casually asked. So this was his first time confessing! Psyching himself up, Wang Meng softly called the girl’s name, "Zhen Yu."

"Shall we start?" Zhen Yu asked, turning her head to the side, still thinking Wang Meng was about to rehearse lines with her.

"Be my girlfriend!" Wang Meng thought Zhen Yu was waiting for him to make a move, so he stepped around in front of her and mustered his courage to speak out loudly.

Zhen Yu was stunned, "..."

Wasn’t I informed to come for a rehearsal as a host? When did it become a confession scene?

Was it Qiao Xian, that bastard tricking me? Or still tricking me? Huh?

At this moment, Qiao Xian at home sneezed three times in a row, while his mother nagged, "Are you catching a cold? Wear more clothes tomorrow!"

Qiao Xian rubbed his nose, there was no stuffiness or runny nose! He didn’t feel cold at all!

Sigh! It’s just inexplicable.

-

Zhen Yu was also completely dumbfounded.

There was no way she was going to accept it! Apart from hosting together, he was a stranger to her – how could she agree to him. What’s more, puppy love was wrong! Zhen Yu stepped back subtly to increase the distance between them and said in a firm voice, "I’ll pretend I never heard this, and you should never bring this up again."

Wang Meng looked at the girl’s expressionless face and felt something was off. Shouldn’t a girl who’s being confessed to be blushing shyly? Why wasn’t her face turning red at all?

And what did she mean by ’pretending to have never heard?’ And ’never bring this up again’ – what’s with this rejection? Why wasn’t she playing by the rules of the script?

Shouldn’t she be saying ’I need to think about it’ or ’We’re not familiar enough’? Now what was he supposed to say after preparing his ’give me an answer tomorrow’ and ’we’ll get to know each other with time’ lines?

In a brainstorm, Wang Meng quickly searched for the best way to continue the conversation, but Zhen Yu had already quietly sidestepped two paces away, standing more than a meter away from the boy.

-

Wang Meng ultimately decided to confess once more, "Zhen Yu, be my girlfriend!"

Zhen Yu looked at Wang Meng, her voice colder than before when talking to him, "The second time."

Wang Meng instantaneously panicked, thinking his past relationship had been brought to Zhen Yu’s attention, "What second time? This is my first time confessing to a girl! Last time she pursued me!"

Zhen Yu pulled a wry smile, not expecting that he actually had a history of puppy love, "Confessing three times comes with a surprise, do you want to give it a try?"

"Ah?" Wang Meng was bewildered, but then suddenly realized ’the second time’ referred to himself.

So, could this ’confessing three times comes with a surprise’ mean if he confesses one more time, she will agree?

Wang Meng clenched his fists and walked up to Zhen Yu once more, looking at her with a ’sincere’ gaze and said again, "Zhen Yu! Be my girlfriend!"

Almost as soon as the words had left his mouth, the world spun around, and when Wang Meng came back to his senses, he was sprawled flat on the ground with a dumbfounded expression.

His mind was full of questions.

Shocked or not?

Happy or not?

Surprised or not?

Zhen Yu slowly squatted in front of him, prodding Wang Meng’s temple with a rolled-up script.

When Wang Meng looked up at her, she coolly said, "Confess again, and I’ll break your legs!"

Wang Meng shrank back as if scared out of his wits.

Only then did Zhen Yu gracefully stand up and find an empty seat to sit down.

-

After about five or six minutes, the music teacher arrived.

Wang Meng had already gotten up from the ground by then, finding a seat far away from Zhen Yu to sit down.

During the rehearsal, Wang Meng was blatantly overcautious, much to the teacher’s dissatisfaction.

Zhen Yu was fed up after practicing twice, so she took advantage of the teacher’s distraction to whisper to Wang Meng, "Let’s not encroach on each other’s life."

Wang Meng stood there stunned for a while, but then during the next practice, he no longer felt the dreadful fear from before.

The morning passed by quickly, and it was almost 12 o’clock when the teacher finally let the two leave, reminding them repeatedly to maintain a good condition.

Zhen Yu rushed home to eat lunch, and while lying on the little heated brick bed for a noon rest, her mind was far from as calm as it seemed on the surface.

Including her past life, this wasn’t the first time Zhen Yu had been confessed to, but in her past life, she had already been in college when that happened.

She didn’t expect that the unnoticed little pitiable person from her previous life, having lived anew, would be pursued in the first year of junior high school.

This is a good thing, isn’t it?

Only by becoming excellent yourself can others see the sparkle in you.

If you’re always just a ball of pitch-black mud, who would care about you?

-

It’s the end of another month; let’s check the system!

Zhen Yu silently thought, and a transparent display screen appeared in front of her.

Seeing that she had a total of 15 ability points, Zhen Yu was very pleased, but upon seeing the long list of data awaiting allocation, she instantly became saddened.

Sob sob sob... This is too hard for me!

After adding 10 points to Inference, Zhen Yu allocated the remaining 5 points to Analysis.

Just as she was about to close the interface, she suddenly uttered a soft ’huh’.

She seemed, sort of, maybe, probably, to have seen her writing increase by 1 point...

She zoomed in on the screen to take a closer look, indeed it did!

Heaven won’t drop pies on you, but it looks like continuous reading and diligent essay writing still pay off!

After closing the system, Zhen Yu silently counted the days; it has been almost twenty days since she mailed her submission to the "selected novels" publication. If it wasn’t selected, in about ten to fifteen days, the manuscript should be returned to her.

Suddenly, she kind of didn’t want Han Mingyue to see it! What to do? Mainly because the content of this novel...

Could it possibly lead Han Mingyue to have some unnecessary, or even negative, associations?
