Rebirth: Back to before my girlfriend dropped out of school

"No." Tong Yusui shook her head. Helping stray animals was a good suggestion, but she couldn't let go of raising a kitten. She would never be able to raise a second kitten in her lifetime.

"It's time for dinner." Guan Zilan's voice came from downstairs. Tong Yusui stood up. She helped Xia Zhuomian pat his clothes, and then tidied up her own clothes and his hair, which was a little messy.

It would be fine if she just cried by herself, why did he cry with her? What a fool.

"Let's go!"

"Oh!"

Xia Zhuomian followed him downstairs and realized that he was still holding the little ball of fur in his hand. "Well, do you still want this?"

"Come on!" It's not a solution to keep avoiding it. She should learn to face it. Besides, it's just a ball of fur, not like a cat at all. It's just that she was too sensitive at the time and cared so much about it.

When they went downstairs, they saw a man going in and out getting cutlery.

When Tong Yusui saw clearly, she paused. This person looked so familiar...

Tong Yusui turned around subconsciously, but Xia Yuansheng had already seen her. He uttered a cry and walked over, "You..."

"Dad, this is my friend, Tong Yusui, and also my deskmate." Xia Zhuomian, who had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, began to introduce Tong Yusui to Xia Yuansheng.

Tong Yusui had no choice but to turn around again and greeted him awkwardly, "Hello, uncle!"

"That's good, haven't we met before?"

"Yes, my uncle helped me at that time. I have always wanted to thank him, but he passed away so quickly that day that I didn't have the chance to thank you."

"Xia Yuansheng, what are you talking about? Come and serve the dishes." Guan Zilan started talking in the kitchen. Xia Yuansheng didn't bother to explain and quickly ran to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

But I felt a little uneasy. It was obvious that this little girl was not a good person. Don't think that just because she is pretending to be well-behaved, everything that happened before can be ignored.

He hid in the kitchen and whispered to his wife, "Honey, is the girl in the room the friend our son is going to entertain? Do you know her?"

"Of course I know him, what's wrong?"

"I, do you remember what I told you about at the Mu family banquet? She is that girl."

"Really?" Guan Zilan couldn't stir-fry anymore and her face changed instantly. She remembered that Tong Yusui was injured some time ago, and the thought instantly came back to her. Xia Zhuomian, you've hidden so much from your own mother, you deserve to be punished.

"Hey, how did Xiaomian and her become friends?"

"Alright." Guan Zilan was in a bad mood, even her husband was not happy with her. "You don't ask where a hero comes from. They are just children. Why are you worrying about them? I'm warning you, don't look at Xiao Sui with tinted glasses. If your son makes trouble for you, I won't help you."

"Then am I not helping him?" Xia Yuansheng whispered softly, but in the end he didn't say anything more and went out with the soup.

Tong Yusui also told Xia Zhuomian about her previous encounter with her uncle. Xia Zhuomian was stunned for a moment. If he had known it would be so complicated, he would have refused when his mother asked to treat Suisui to dinner. Now, it was even more troublesome.

"Forget it, I'll explain it later." Before coming here, Tong Yusui had already been thinking about how to make up her own experience, because there was a high possibility that she would be asked about it. Now with the variable of Xia Yuansheng, she had to polish the story.

"The dishes are ready." Guan Zilan came out with a bowl. Tong Yusui and Xia Zhuomian quickly stood up to take it, but Guan Zilan dodged them. "It's okay, I'll do it."

She put the bowl down and filled half a bowl of soup for Tong Yusui. "Try it and see if you can get used to it."

Tong Yusui took a sip and praised her enthusiastically, "Auntie, your cooking skills are very good. The soup is delicious and rich. It tastes very good."

"Yes, Mom, today's soup is really tasty, and the saltiness is just right. Mom will serve you a bowl for you to try. It's really delicious." Xia Zhuomian was also very supportive and stood up to serve her half a bowl.

"Your mother's cooking is always delicious." Xia Yuansheng was unwilling to be left behind.

Guan Zilan squinted her eyes and smiled. It was quite pleasing to have her cooking skills recognized. She scooped a spoonful and tasted it. It was indeed good and delicious.

"This prawn is fresh and tastes good. Come and try it."

Guan Zilan picked up another shrimp for Tong Yusui.

"Thank you, Auntie." Tong Yusui took it quickly. They didn't ask any questions during the whole process. Instead, they introduced each dish to her attentively and encouraged her to eat more.

After much persuasion, Tong Yusui felt a little full and all the prepared remarks she had made were of no use.

After dinner, Xia Zhuomian cleared the table, Uncle Xia went to wash the pots and dishes, and Guan Zilan took her to sit on the sofa.

Turn on the TV, "If there's anything you want to watch, I'll find it for you."

"I seldom watch TV. I just watch whatever my auntie watches."

Guan Zilan was not polite and found the drama she had been following a few days ago and continued watching it.

After a while, Xia Zhuomian came over with a plate of fruit and said, "Have some fruit."

Then I went to the kitchen to help Uncle Xia.

Guan Zilan picked a grape and handed it to Tong Yusui. "Xiao Mian and I went to buy this fruit together. I asked him to buy some grapes, but he said you don't like them and that you can only eat grapes. He also said that you don't have a favorite fruit, but you hate apples, grapes, and mangosteens. He wouldn't let me buy any of those."

"Actually, I can eat them all." Tong Yusui sat up straight in an instant.

"Relax." Seeing her so nervous, Guan Zilan laughed, "That's not what I meant."

"Xiaomi told you about my past life, didn't I? Actually, I didn't believe it before, but I've slowly started to believe it lately."

She looked at Tong Yusui, extremely serious, "He cares about you very much, and I can't control that no matter what. I just hope that you can treat him better."

"By the way, no premature love."

"I will." Tong Yusui's eyes lit up instantly. She never thought that today would be so smooth. She was extremely nervous when she came and kept thinking about what to say.

"Thank you, Aunt Guan. Actually, I don't know how to explain this to you. We're not actually in a relationship. We've already formed a tacit understanding, which is to study hard, make progress together, and witness each other's future. I'm also thinking about how to improve my grades. I feel like there's a tacit understanding between him and me that resonates with each other."

"Okay, no need to say more." Hearing her excited explanation, Guan Zilan laughed. She used to think that her son cared too much about the other person, but now it seems that they care about each other, and they seem to have entered a stable period, not at all like two people who just started dating.

This way she can feel a little more at ease.

"By the way, there's one more thing. Are you familiar with Mu Xingzhou?"

"I'm not familiar with it." Tong Yusui hesitated for a second and then said immediately.

"Oh, I see." Guan Zilan frowned. Then she probably didn't know much.

"What are you talking about?" The father and son finally finished their work and came over to sit down.

"Just chatting." Guan Zilan frowned and thought of Yu Cai, and responded impatiently.

Some time ago, she went to see Xiumei and said that Yucai had made a fortune and wanted to send her son and daughter to study abroad.

His son is about to graduate from high school and his grades are average, so it's reasonable for him to go to school abroad. But his daughter is only in elementary school. Why send her abroad at such a young age?

Li Xiumei was also worried about this matter, so she told Guan Zilan that she wanted her help to persuade her.
