Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl -
Chapter 130: A Daily Sigh
Chapter 130: Chapter 130: A Daily Sigh
Zhen Yu aimed a kick at the older cousin’s butt, sending him stumbling several steps away, then rolled up her sleeves and went to help Han Mingyue.
"Get inside the house quickly!" she exclaimed.
Of course, Han Mingyue refused.
The scuffle ended in less than three minutes.
After taking quite a few punches and kicks from Zhen Yu, the older and second cousins left, slamming the door, after spouting some harsh words.
Clearly, Han Mingyue didn’t fare any better! There was only one visible mark on his face, how many times his body was hit, only he knew.
As soon as the two left, Zhen Yu quickly pulled Han Mingyue into the small bedroom to look for the box with medical supplies.
While searching, she scolded, "Are you stupid? If you can’t fight, don’t rush in! Look at you," her words came to an abrupt stop mid-lecture.
Han Mingyue was silently sitting in front of Zhen Yan’s desk, biting his lower lip, with his eyes and eyebrows lowered, listening obediently to her scolding.
After Zhen Yu stopped talking, the room suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Zhen Yu was so focused on finding the medicine that she didn’t notice, but Han Mingyue began to feel increasingly uneasy.
Zhen Yu found some iodine and cotton swabs, thought for a moment, and also picked up the Red Flower Oil, then walked over to Han Mingyue.
"What are you dazing off for? Take off your jacket! Aren’t you hot?" Zhen Yu put down the items on the desk and pulled over her own chair to sit opposite Han Mingyue.
Only then did Han Mingyue realize that he had been sitting in a heated room wearing a cotton jacket. He quickly stood up.
But as soon as he straightened his left arm, he let out a light ’ah’ and stiffened in place.
Zhen Yu urgently commanded, "Don’t move!" before walking behind him and gently helping him take off the jacket.
"Where does it hurt? Your arm or your back?"
Han Mingyue cast his eyes downwards: "..."
"Speak up." The gentle urging voice was soft, yet it tickled the boy’s ears and his heart.
"Shoulder."
"...First, sit down! I’ll apply some medicine on your face."
The injury on his face was not serious, it was just a punch after all.
However, there was a virtually invisible small cut near the corner of his eye which they only realized when the iodine stung.
This discovery process involved the girl almost laying across the boy’s face to look...
Her breath on his face, her soft fingertips gently resting on his cheek, eyes meeting eyes, the boy quickly blushed like a peach blossom, while the girl thought he was just hot.
Such obtuseness...
After treating the wound on his face, and just as the boy caught his breath, he suddenly heard the girl, expressionless, instruct, "Take off your shirt."
"Ah cough cough cough cough..." Han Mingyue choked on his saliva, and Zhen Yu looked at him helplessly before getting up and going to the living room.
When she came back, she carried a cup of warm water over to him.
Han Mingyue took it and was about to drink when he heard her urge, "Drink quickly! After that, take off your clothes."
The boy’s hand stiffened, then he slowly began to drink.
But a cup of water has only so much, and eventually, almost having his clothes forcibly removed by Zhen Yu, Han Mingyue reluctantly took off his sweater, cardigan, and one sleeve of his shirt, in embarrassment.
With a grim expression, Zhen Yu stared at the bruise near Han Mingyue’s shoulder blade, contemplating when she would get another chance to beat up those two cousins.
Because Han Mingyue was very fair-skinned, the bruise looked quite shocking. Aside from that spot, there were two other not-so-serious areas on his left arm.
"Go lie down on Zhen Yan’s bed, I’ll rub it for you." Zhen Yu directed Han Mingyue like a puppet, and he obediently lay down.
Then...
Zhen Yu’s inner monologue: "Red Flower Oil is pretty effective."
Han Mingyue: Facial temperature too high, causing a short circuit in the brain and paralysis of the thinking system.
——
Zhen Yu didn’t speak of this matter at lunch with Zhen Yan.
Thus, when Mrs. Zhen returned home with a sullen face in the evening, it gave Zhen Yan a start. He thought Zhen Halong and the mistress had gone to create trouble at Shoe City again!
In her heart, Zhen Yuxin was clear as a mirror; Aunt Cheng must have gone to bother Mrs. Zhen.
The two cousins got beaten up and wouldn’t go home without tattling!
She knew this would happen, yet in the afternoon, she didn’t go to Shoe City to warn her mother.
Firstly, she wanted to see if her mother, after half a year of running a business independently and continuous ’brainwashing’ from her, would have improved; secondly, Zhen Yu wanted Aunt Cheng to come looking for trouble once, after which she would teach this woman with facts what consequences messing with her would bring!
When Han Mingyue left in the afternoon, Zhen Yu told him not to come over tomorrow morning as she had errands to run.
Thus, even though she was sitting at the dining table facing her mother’s cold expression, her own face was slack and she wasn’t worried at all.
Mrs. Zhen glared at her daughter for a while, but seeing no reaction from her, she couldn’t help but feel disheartened and said, "Zhen Yu, why did you get into another fight..."
"What? Xiao Yu fought someone? With whom?" Upon hearing this, Zhen Yan was alarmed. If anyone dared to bully his sister, he would settle the score with them tomorrow!
"You, stop adding your two cents!" Mrs. Zhen snapped at her son first, then turned to Zhen Yu and demanded, "Who is that kid who fought for you?"
Zhen Yan’s heart skipped a beat, "Oops! Neither Fu Yu nor I were there, it must have been Han Mingyue! If Mrs. Zhen finds out..."
Zhen Yu, however, wasn’t worried and lied with a straight face, "Who helped me fight? They’re just too ashamed to find an excuse for not being able to beat me!"
Mrs. Zhen somehow believed her right away, whether it was because Zhen Yu was too composed or for some other reason.
"These two scoundrels! They’re ganging up to bully my daughter!"
Zhen Yan gaped, "..." Is that really how it works?! Mom, you’re too gullible!
"Your Aunt Cheng came to the store causing a scene, insisting you brought outsiders to beat up her son and demanded compensation! What are you going to do about it?"
"Just prepare the money," Zhen Yu replied indifferently.
Zhen Yan became anxious immediately. "What? You’re really going to pay?"
Mrs. Zhen was a bit conflicted, "How much should we give? Your Aunt Cheng is bound to ask for a huge sum!"
Zhen Yu said, "A hundred or two hundred should be enough."
"Well, that’s not too much. Alright then, after all, you caused the trouble! It’s only right to give something after beating someone up."
Mrs. Zhen didn’t see anything wrong with this, leaving Zhen Yu to sigh lightly.
Sigh, teaching slowly, it’s hard to tell who’s the daughter and who’s the mother at times...
Zhen Yan continued to grumble dissatisfiedly until Zhen Yu discreetly shot him a look, and he immediately quieted down, catching on.
After dinner, the siblings shut themselves in the small bedroom for a private talk.
As soon as the door closed, Zhen Yan eagerly approached Zhen Yu, "Little sis, what’s your plan now?"
"Fight again tomorrow! If she causes a fuss, I’ll fight back. Let’s see who gets impatient first," Zhen Yu said lightly.
"You’re bold! I’ll join too!" Zhen Yan grinned, his smile reaching his ears, happily said.
"If you want to go, then go!" Zhen Yu didn’t mind, since they’ve trained for so long, having a ’real battle’ wasn’t a bad thing.
At worst, she would end up like Han Mingyue and just need to apply medication upon return.
