Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 24 - Go Pound Sand

```

Not until Han Mingyue saw that Zhen Yu had reached the end of one story and the beginning of another did she finally open her mouth.

"Xiao Yu."

Zhen Yu looked towards Han Mingyue, "Hmm?"

Han Mingyue swallowed, "I heard that Uncle Zhen is getting married."

After saying this, she nervously watched Zhen Yu, observing her reaction.

Zhen Yu's eyes were deep wells, seemingly absorbing every ray of light that entered them.

Her expression didn't change at all, and she said with an unusually cold tone, "That's normal."

"You're not normal!" Han Mingyue contested silently in her mind.

Is this the kind of reaction a daughter should have upon hearing her father is remarrying?

Shouldn't you at least express some anger? Or perhaps even resentment or something...

Your expression didn't even twitch an eyebrow, how is that normal?!

Thinking a lot, but Han Mingyue didn't say anything.

She only asked quietly, "Will you go?"

Hell no! I'm afraid I can't help but turn that couple's brains into mush if I go there!

Of course! In front of the person she secretly loved in her past life, whom she wanted to grow up with in this life, Zhen Yu had to maintain some image!

"I won't go." Using two ice-cold words as before, then Zhen Yu refused to discuss this matter further by burying her head in a book!

She prepared dinner and waited for her mother and brother to come home.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhen started talking about hiring someone, "Two friends both recommended someone, but I don't know which one to choose."

"Just meet with them," Zhen Yu suggested straightforwardly.

"That won't do! If I call them over and don't hire them, my friends will hold it against me! Ah, this is troublesome! Suddenly, two of them..."

"Call them both! I'll talk to them."

"...Okay."

Mrs. Zhen happily left the matter to her daughter.

She talked a bit more about that fashionable woman, then Mrs. Zhen stopped talking, her face showing some hesitation.

Her expression was too unusual, even Zhen Yan, that blockhead (a nickname Zhen Yu had privately given to her brother half a month after her rebirth), noticed it, let alone Zhen Yu?

But Zhen Yu just sat there without moving, not asking or making a sound, waiting for Mrs. Zhen to decide whether to speak or not.

But Zhen Yan was blunt, and he just opened his mouth to ask, "Mom! What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"..." Zhen Yu held her forehead with her hand.

My silly brother, where did you see that mom's expression looked like she's feeling unwell? I am speechless!

Mom's expression clearly showed uncertainty about whether to speak or not...

I also have a 'blockhead' remark I'm not sure if I should make...

In the end, Mrs. Zhen still made up her mind and spoke out.

"Xiao Yan! Xiao Yu! Your dad's getting remarried!"

"What?" Zhen Yan raised his head sharply, then lowered it again.

Zhen Yu just watched her brother clutch his fists tightly without saying a word.

Seeing that her children remained silent, Mrs. Zhen simply decided to break the jar and spilled everything out.

"I heard it from Sister Li from the neighboring shop, she said the date is set for August 5th." Mrs. Zhen paused before saying, "If you two want to go..."

"Not going!"

"I bloody well won't go!"

Zhen Yu and Zhen Yan said no at the same time, unlike Zhen Yu's calm demeanor, Zhen Yan's emotions were much more agitated.

```

"Mom! Don't be sad! Let me beat up that woman for you later!"

...You say beat her up just like that? Did you even get my consent?

Before Zhen Yu could finish her complaints, Zhen Yan suddenly turned his head and instructed, "Little sister! Aim for the face this time! Make her swell up like a pig's head, that would be perfect!"

...Hey brother~ have you not heard of the saying 'Don't hit the face when you beat someone'?

Could I really do something so tasteless?

Could I? That's absolutely out of the question!

The main thing is----- hitting the face, what if she calls the police then...

"Little sister! Make sure it's before the 5th!" Seeing Zhen Yu not responding, Zhen Yan raised his voice and called her again, even setting the exact date~

Zhen Yu couldn't bear it anymore, weakly objecting, "Bro, can't we be more civilized? Violence won't solve problems..."

Zhen Yan glanced at her sideways, and the meaning in his eyes made Zhen Yu want to strangle him.

You call yourself civilized? You already hit her twice!

If violence won't solve problems, then how come that 'Beautiful Shoe City' wasn't beat up—oops, I mean, why did they immediately give in after a beating?

"Little sister!" Zhen Yan said somberly, "We have to vent Mom's frustrations! If Bro had your skills, I would have done it myself already!"

...Thank goodness you don't! Otherwise, I'd likely have to bail you out of the police station sooner or later!

And also! What kind of frustrations are you talking about venting! They should be vented on Mr. Zhen if anyone!

Your man doesn't love you anymore, are you going to blame the other woman?

It was your own failure to see clearly when you married him! It was you, the flower at home, that wasn't enticing enough!

Why must women make things hard for other women... right, Mom?

Zhen Yu looked at Mrs. Zhen.

Clearly, it was not.

Mrs. Zhen had no objections whatsoever, if it weren't for her weak fighting abilities, she likely would have charged into battle herself...

Zhen Yu was defeated under the combined glaring of her mother and brother.

Hugging herself, she truly was the embodiment of a helpless little victim.

Zhen Yu touched her head as she walked to the small bedroom, pondering how to 'hit the face' properly.

Having read too many novels about trashing scum and making a comeback, she had seen all sorts of tactics in books.

But those were just stories, to actually do that in reality, she was sure the police would invite her for a chat!

She was clearly a lawful, powerful, democratic, cultured, and harmonious successor to socialism, so why was she now being pushed into such deeds...

Mom, are you corrupting the young minds, do you even understand the consequences?

After pondering for a while and not coming up with a plan, Zhen Yu simply decided to let it go, there were still a few days left, she'd deal with it when the time came!

The next day it was Zhen Yu's turn to help at Shoe City, and early in the morning, she followed her mother to the store.

Mrs. Zhen sent word to her friends in the morning, and by afternoon, the two girls who were referred for work had arrived.

As per Mrs. Zhen's preference, the recruits were all around twenty years of age, the big young women who didn't seem much different from the girls around town.

After handing them over to Zhen Yu, Mrs. Zhen busied herself with the customers.

The two girls hadn't expected to be speaking with this little girl and couldn't help but size her up curiously.

"Let's start with self-introductions," Zhen Yu stood up from her stool, short in stature compared to the other two, but stood with her hands in her pockets, full of presence.

"My name is Zhang Fang, graduated from high school but didn't get into university, now looking for a job!" the shorter girl immediately replied.

The slim tall girl spoke softly, "My name is Li Li, finished junior high, previously helped with farming at home, also, also looking for a job."

"Could you say that again louder?"

"Eh?" Li Li was startled for a moment, then, seeing that Zhen Yu was looking at her, took a deep breath and repeated it louder.

"Walk around the store for ten minutes, then come back to me after ten."

Zhang Fang and Li Li exchanged a look, finding that the little girl had already taken a seat and buried herself in a book; they had no choice but to start looking around.
