After a morning of chaos, Bai Xue finally managed to kick her cousin out of the house.
Then, after dinner, during her mother’s digestion period, she took her brother to visit Zhen Yu’s house.
Knock knock—
"Hey! Soone’s knocking at the door!? Could it be your boyfriend?"
Liu Ting, who was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons, imdiately shouted upon hearing the knock!
Qian Duoduo hurriedly lifted her arm and nudged Zhen Yu, "Put down the bowl, I’ll wash it! You go and check!"
Zhen Yu didn’t utter a word, but turned on the faucet with an air of calm yet slightly tense.
After quickly rinsing the soap bubbles off her hands, she shook them dry and walked out of the kitchen.
But when she opened the door, Zhen Yu was t with Bai Xue’s eyes full of self-congratulatory intent...
"Xiao Yu! I have good news! Fu Yu’s mom took him away!"
"Oh." Zhen Yu responded lightly, letting the siblings into the house.
This was indeed good news! But finding out that the visitor wasn’t Han Mingyue, Zhen Yu couldn’t feel happy at all at that mont.
"What’s the matter with you? Why do you look so down?" Bai Xue noticed that Zhen Yu seed off, so she casually asked.
Then she realized there was another darker-skinned girl sitting on the sofa!
"Hey, you have guests over! Ah? Aren’t you Xiao Yu’s middle school classmate? I recognize you!"
"Hello! I’m Liu Ting!" Liu Ting also rembered who Bai Xue was and quickly got up to greet her.
"You all take a seat first! Qian Duoduo is in the kitchen! I’ll call her! They just finished their middle school exams, so they ca to Qi City to have fun for a few days." Zhen Yu’s last words were an explanation to Bai Xue about the purpose of her classmates’ visit.
"Ha! Hello, I’m Bai Xue! This is my brother Bai Yong! That’s great, Xiao Yu finally has soone to hang out with! I’ve been worrying about her at ho these past few days! I was so afraid she’d be alone at ho, eh? Han Mingyue still hasn’t co to see you?"
Bai Xue really had a knack for touching on sensitive topics, one after another! She was originally talking to Liu Ting, but suddenly turned around and called out to the receding figure of Zhen Yu heading to the kitchen!
Zhen Yu’s figure montarily stiffened, then she answered loudly, "No!"
"This boy! What on earth is going on with him?" Bai Xue imdiately beca suspicious!
From her perspective, Han Mingyue didn’t seem like the kind of person who could endure this long without seeing Zhen Yu!
A strong intuition told her that sothing must have gone wrong!
This feeling only flashed by, but Bai Xue imdiately grasped it, unusually holding her breath this ti! She secretly planned to spend less ti at Zhen Yu’s house before making a beeline to find out directly from Han Mingyue!
Qian Duoduo and Bai Xue knew each other, so when she ca near the sofa with Zhen Yu, she proactively greeted Bai Xue.
Bai Xue had sothing on her mind, so she cut to the chase and started the conversation: "Did you just arrive today? What are your plans for fun?"
Liu Ting was straightforward, and as soon as Bai Xue asked, she quickly replied: "We arrived yesterday! We spent today shopping!"
Zhen Yu waited until she finished before adding: "Today, I just discussed with them, we’ll go to the park tomorrow! It’s not far from here, you can see animals and go boating on the lake, I think it’s a great idea!"
She didn’t ask Bai Xue to join because she knew Bai Xue couldn’t leave now! Bai Yong needed soone with him...
Because she didn’t ask, neither Qian Duoduo nor Liu Ting presud to invite on their own initiative.
Nevertheless, Bai Xue enthusiastically shared with them about the fun places in the park...
——
After chatting for about ten minutes, Bai Xue stood up with her brother and told the three people that there was still sothing going on at ho, so they needed to leave early.
Qian Duoduo and Liu Ting both stood up politely.
Zhen Yu didn’t pay much attention and directly followed Bai Xue and her brother to the door.
As a result, while at the door changing shoes, Bai Xue secretly tugged at Zhen Yu!
Zhen Yu imdiately understood the hint and quickly changed her shoes, too, and escorted the siblings downstairs.
Once they were out of the building door, Zhen Yu said, "What’s up?"
"It’s nothing serious. I just wanted to ask you, how many days are they going to stay in Qi City?" Bai Xue had no need for formalities with Zhen Yu, so she spoke frankly, "Didn’t you say you would tutor ? Looking at the situation now, it’s certain that I’ll have to wait until they leave. So I just wanted to get a sure answer in advance to avoid any later inconvenience,"
"I understand! They should be staying for at most five days! It’s not convenient for you to keep coming to , so once they leave, I’ll co to you!"
"Oh! Alright, then I’ll just wait for you to co to !" Bai Xue forgot that Zhen Yu could co to her after her cousin had been staying at her place for so long... As soon as she realized it and was about to leave, Bai Xue’s steps faltered again!
"There’s one more thing..."
——
After hearing that Lu Huai wanted to tutor Bai Xue, Zhen Yu stayed silent for quite a long ti.
Seeing this, Bai Xue felt uneasy and suddenly had the illusion of waiting for judgnt.
Eventually, Zhen Yu weighed it in her heart for a while before deciding not to ddle in the emotional affairs of these two people!
After all, the tutoring would take place at her house! With her there as a big "lightbulb", they couldn’t get into any trouble...
So under Bai Xue’s complex gaze, Zhen Yu finally nodded gently and simply said, "Okay!"
These two short words sounded like divine music to Bai Xue! The smile on her face blossod instantly!
This Ru Hua-like smile dazzled Zhen Yu, but in a mont of thought, she suddenly rembered Han Mingyue...
Comparing the two, Zhen Yu felt a pang of lancholy and simply waved her hand and turned to go upstairs.
This abrupt departure left Bai Xue montarily stunned! Then she sowhat realized what to do next and pulled her brother along, rushing straight towards Han Mingyue’s family pharmacy.
"Han Mingyue! Han Mingyue!"
Her voice reached before she even entered the door! This was exactly how Bai Xue was!
So before she could lift the curtain that blocked flies and mosquitoes, Mrs. Han already knew what her visit entailed!
Thus, when Bai Xue had one foot inside and another still outside, she heard Mrs. Han mutter in a voice neither too loud nor too soft, "Why do those who should co never show up, but those who shouldn’t be here keep sneaking into my house?"
"???" Bai Xue’s little head was filled with big question marks...
It was clear the words were filled with hidden criticisms! But the key issue was—since the sumr vacation started, this was her first visit!
So... who was Mrs. Han talking about?
"Ah! Bai Xue, it’s you? Where’s Xiao Yu?"
Just after Mrs. Han finished speaking, she realized the visitor was soone she knew! So she quickly got up to look behind Bai Xue!
