Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 17 - With Me, It’s Enough

"What? Divorced?" Bai Xue only paid attention to the latter part, since these siblings are bouncing around alive, it means drowning wasn't a big deal.

But she didn't know that both siblings had climbed back from the brink of death.

"My dad cheated."

"So who are you living with?"

"With my mom."

"Right, right! You definitely shouldn't live with your dad, wouldn't he have the stepmom all ready for you?!"

"..."

"What does your mom rely on to support you all? Does she get the shop and house?"

"The house and shop went to my mom, the goods went to him!"

"What will you do if there's no goods?"

"Switching careers! Selling shoes."

"Ah? Your mom's switching careers? Selling shoes is great! I'll tell my mom to buy shoes from your place in the future!"

"No need! Only buy if you like them!"

Bai Xue noticed that Zhen Yu was acting strangely today, always speaking in short bursts, and her face was utterly expressionless, so she said, "Zhen Yu, you seem like a completely different person!"

"Clunk" went Zhen Yu's heart, but her face revealed nothing.

It's fine! Don't be scared! She doesn't know anything!

"I haven't changed!"

"Still say you haven't changed? You didn't talk like this before! Are you upset because of what happened with your dad?" Bai Xue asked cautiously.

What setback? What setback have I suffered!

It's not my husband! I wasn't the one cheated on!

Not me! Not me!

I even kicked that woman with great satisfaction!

Zhen Yu grumbled internally while pondering.

Do I speak too little when chatting?

Hm! I need to pay attention to that!

Better to chat less with others in the future!

-

Zhen Yan and Bai Xue's little brother came back into the living room, unaware of when they had returned.

"What setback? My sister beat her up!"

"Beat up who?"

"The mistress!"

"Xiao Yu is really that tough?" Bai Xue found it hard to believe.

"Of course! You didn't see it, but when my sister kicked her," Zhen Yan boasted to Bai Xue, "my sister knocked that foul woman to the ground with one kick, and she cried so miserably!"

Zhen Yu viciously retorted internally: "That's her playing you with her drama! You straight man cancer! It's a sickness! Needs to be cured!"

"Right! My sister also took the toilet broom from our place to beat her up good, even I felt sick watching!"

Bai Xue's expression was indescribable; she opened her mouth, "Did you really use the toilet broom to hit her?"

"Yep, the one for sweeping maggots." Zhen Yu said with a matter-of-fact tone and a disgust-inducing statement.

Zhen Yan and Bai Xue exchanged glances and both made a 'vomit' gesture.

-

After a while, Bai Xue suddenly brought up one more thing, "How much child support does your dad give?"

Zhen Yan looked at Zhen Yu, and Zhen Yu shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

She really didn't know; she had been too busy recently and hadn't found the time to ask Mrs. Zhen.

Bai Xue, acting like an experienced person, said: "I'm telling you! It's best to get your dad to pay the child support in one go, or else it should be once a year! If it's monthly, then you just wait for the trouble!"

"How so?" Zhen Yu asked, while Zhen Yan also stared at Bai Xue with a curious face.

Bai Xue's gossipy heart was greatly satisfied, and she immediately began to enlighten them.

"At first, my dad used to give my brother and me monthly living expenses, and it was pretty good initially."

"But after he remarried, that damn woman constantly interfered saying there was no money! My mom had to work, and we had to go to school; we couldn't just block his doorstep every day demanding money, could we?!"

"How was it resolved?" Zhen Yu suddenly had a premonition that the child support money from Mr. Zhen wouldn't be easy to get either.

-

In her previous life, Mr. Zhen was extremely stingy with the living allowance, with no minimum, only lower.

It's probably all that woman's idea, she didn't dare let Mr. Zhen not provide, after all, Mrs. Zhen had already died then, and they surely couldn't starve to death!

If Mr. Zhen wouldn't take care of them, he would be criticized by people who knew him.

Later, when she started to work and earn money, the living allowance was cut by 30%.

That woman said that Zhen Yu had grown up, and the law considers someone a grown-up who can support themselves from the age of sixteen.

Zhen Yu didn't respond; she cried about how hard it was for Mr. Zhen to provide for the family, and thinking she could indeed earn money now, she acquiesced to it.

It's just not known whether the events of her previous life were due to that woman's behind-the-scenes manipulation or if they had Mr. Zhen's silent permission and support...

-

Zhen Yu sighed. In this life, she didn't want to comply with that woman's wishes anymore!

Although she was reborn, she was just a junior college graduate with an ordinary job before her rebirth, and the system was of no help either; she didn't have the ability to make Mrs. Zhen wealthy overnight.

It was still uncertain if Shoe City would make a profit, so it seems she needed to figure out a way to resolve the child support issue.

Otherwise, it would be too hard for Mrs. Zhen to earn money and support the family alone.

"Resolution? I think a few of my uncles visited his house one after the other! They probably threatened him, or maybe they beat him up! Served him right!"

Zhen Yu: "..."

Sure enough, mothers and uncles are formidable! Fists are the undeniable truth!

Zhen Yan hesitated for a second, then looking at Zhen Yu, he said, "Our uncles..."

"No need! I'm enough," Zhen Yu said, her chin raised, radiating a strong presence, unwittingly gaining the trust of the other three present.

All three nodded firmly, and Bai Xue's brother even stretched his little arm and cheered, "Go for it!"

"..."

I really want to grab him and give him a squeeze, chubby and plump, his flesh must be so soft and squishy...

Zhen Yu gripped one hand with the other, restraining herself...

-

"Right! What's the deal with you two nearly drowning? You went to play in the water and took your sister with you? That's impossible, right?" Bai Xue found the opportunity to shift the topic.

"I didn't take her! She didn't nearly drown with me! She, um..." Zhen Yan started to explain, just about to share his sister's embarrassing drowning incident, when Zhen Yu, who had quietly approached him, suddenly covered his mouth with her hand.

Zhen Yu warned him with her eyes not to bring it up again!

Zhen Yan quickly nodded in agreement, signaling Zhen Yu to let him go.

As Zhen Yu let go and was about to move back to where she'd been seated, Zhen Yan suddenly burst out at a rapid pace, "She fell into the water tank!"

While saying this, he quickly tossed his head back, and Zhen Yu's hand slapped his cheek.

With the sentence complete, Zhen Yan turned his head back, raising an eyebrow at his sister.

"Pfft! Ahahaha..." Bai Xue, dumbfounded by the siblings' antics, didn't react until she heard the words 'fell into the water tank', and then she burst out laughing and collapsed on the Kang bed, bereft of any image.

"Water tank? Sister Xiao Yu fell in? Was it Sima Guang who smashed the tank to save her?" Bai Xue's brother asked in a delicate voice.

"Ouch! I can't even! Haha... Sima Guang... ahahaha..." Bai Xue tried to sit up, but when she heard her brother's comment, she rolled over laughing.

"There was no Sima Guang," Zhen Yu said sourly, but still explained, "Han Mingyue saved me!"

"Han Mingyue?" Bai Xue fell silent in confusion, "The top ranking student in our class?"

"Mhm."

"If it hadn't been for him, my sis would have been a goner right there!" Zhen Yan recalled the incident with a lingering sense of fear, "Fu Yu said it was Han Mingyue who spotted her first."

"The two of them pulled my sister out together, and then Han Mingyue told everyone to quickly find his dad, we all thought if we couldn't find Uncle Han, Xiao Yu would be doomed..."
