Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Tea room

Seeing that her son was familiar with the guest list and didn't need her to explain it to Xia Youmi, Wei Youzhen got up and left to check on the dinner preparations.

She doesn't care about any of her relatives, whether they are close or distant.

But those three guests, who are also board members and whose relatives have been admitted to Jiyu University this year, are the only ones who connect Xia Youmi to the storyline, and will be proven on the day of the birthday banquet.

Only Mr. and Mrs. Zhuo and the two of them were present for dinner. Teacher Chai's meal was delivered to the room in advance, and he also agreed to meet with Xia Youmi after dinner.

Because Zhuo Yi was there to mediate, the atmosphere at the dinner table was exceptionally good.

Everyone was smiling.

It was already 7 p.m. when Xia Youmi finally met Teacher Chai.

"Come on, girl, let's take a walk together."

“Okay.” Xia Youmi was not intimidated at all. She stepped forward, took Teacher Chai’s hand, and the two leisurely went out.

Contrary to expectations, Teacher Chai was dressed in simple sportswear with fluorescent strips to indicate not to bump into her, making her seem particularly down-to-earth and approachable.

Zhuo Yi and his two assistants followed at a distance, each worried about being left behind.

but,

Instead of discussing various trivial matters, Teacher Chai immediately started talking about the part that interested her the most, which was Xia Youmi's paintings from the period before she returned to China. You could see that pain gave birth to inspiration, but it was just a little short of the person who was about to appear and move closer to bloodshed.

Her mental state is almost back to the state of the accident in her childhood.

Furthermore, because she is more mature and has experienced more, and because the current conflict is precisely related to the core of the accident, Xia Youmi will see things more clearly and extremely than she did when she was younger, and she will be more deeply hurt.

Teacher Chai then instructed Zhuo's mother to hurriedly call the person back.

When it comes to the point where outsiders have no choice but to intervene, no matter how considerate and caring Ren Zhuoyi is, he cannot fully empathize.

Aside from women, women whose minds are not clouded.

You can tell Xia Youmi's state of mind from her paintings and a short story told by Zhuo's mother. You can also tell about her teacher's potential talent. Even when talking about topics unrelated to the main plot, Xia Youmi can still listen attentively.

Immerse yourself in the experience and enjoy the freedom of communication.

If it weren't for Ms. Chai's assistant pointing to the time and stopping them, they could have continued their walk until nine o'clock.

After the initial excitement came exhaustion, and Xia Youmi fell into a deep sleep, not continuing to analyze the plot.

Some things are hidden in the little things of daily life, and there has long been an opportunity to change them; the choice to change them is also in our hands.

A dreamless night.

With three days to go until the birthday banquet, Xia Youmi spent the rest of her time chatting with her teacher, Zhuo Yi, in addition to practicing dance with Zhuo Yi under the guidance of Teacher Chai and Zhuo's mother, as a form of exercise.

now,

She finally understood why the family considered inviting Teacher Chai to give lectures as the most authentic way.

The people they brought out were indeed more gifted.

Xia Youmi can dance and has a certain level of comprehension, but this is a duet, which requires coordination in many aspects. Such details might be difficult for even two individually skilled dancers to find in a short time.

A rigid, methodical teacher may not be able to teach someone who isn't interested well; at best, they can only rely on exceptional memory and physical coordination to complete the dance. But the exchange of glances between dancers is very difficult to master—how to do it naturally, how to achieve the perfect balance—even lovers may not be able to grasp the nuances.

With the teacher's guidance, their dance transformed from a task into an art.

This was an ability that transcended science, and Xia Youmi gradually became convinced.

Zhuo Yi became addicted to it.

In addition to daily practice, they would dance with Xia Youmi every night after showering. This time, they would control the music, and the rhythm didn't need to consider whether it looked decent to the guests.

Free, unrestrained, and intense.

Restraint, elegant confrontation.

Scalding hot, yet restrained tearing.

The two became more and more in sync, and even if they jumped up and down in a sweat, they would only feel refreshed.

and,

The benefits of getting involved, besides mitigating the damage from later plot developments, also allow Xia Youmi to legitimately avoid participating in the arrangements and setup of those banquets. Whenever she had free time after talking with Teacher Chai, just as she was about to be called away by Wei Youzhen, Zhuo Yi would come and snatch her away from her mother.

Seeing the two of them, who were clearly more compatible than before, full of energy and smiling, Zhuo's mother couldn't bear to separate them. She could only scold her husband, Zhuo Gao, and then pull her youngest son, Zhuo Xuan, who had just returned home, to help.

Compared to before,

Zhuo Xuan was quite familiar with Xia Youmi, so it wasn't surprising that she greeted her as "teacher" or "sister-in-law" when she was home.

Furthermore, he could tell that Ms. Xia became much more lively during classroom interactions.

Zhuo Xuan witnessed this spirit even earlier than his brother, and Xia Youmi's behavior at home was not at all abrupt.

just,

Besides completing the tasks assigned to him by his family, Zhuo Xuan would go out every day without explaining why, but it was nothing more than to have further interaction with the female lead. Xia Youmi had no interest in prying into this.

She pieced together the truth behind the subsequent manipulation of public opinion from the guests she had visited in advance.

The original text suggests that Professor Chai will most likely still come.

However, Xia Youmi probably didn't return early. She didn't learn dance from Teacher Chai, nor did she socialize. She and Zhuo Yi likely checked into the Zhuo family's house two days and one night earlier, and neither of them took on the responsibility of performing the opening dance.

The original text mentions Zhuo Gao and Wei Youzhen dancing, and mentions Zhuo Yi meeting with guests, but Xia Youmi hardly ever appears.

Or, even if they appear, they are not noticed and are not significant enough to be included in the main storyline.

This,

At least in the eyes of some people with ulterior motives, this fueled the rumors of the eldest son's marital breakdown.

The fact that the eldest daughter-in-law wasn't even invited out to broaden her horizons on such an occasion shows that the Zhuo family doesn't value her at all and considers her dispensable. Therefore, when they see someone targeting the commoner female lead and dragging her into it, they don't need to give her any face or defend her.

At the same time, it was also a test of Zhuo Yi's attitude.

Some members of the board of directors have already set their sights on the position of chairman Yue Jia. It seems that some are eyeing the second son, while others are eyeing the side of the eldest son, whose position is about to be vacated.

Hitting two suspicious competitors at once is the most cost-effective thing to do. They are also careful to avoid being the direct cause of the accident, and merely use the students' jealousy to ignite public opinion.

When the news arrives, suppress it from superiors and ignore it from subordinates.

It can, at least invisibly, strike the other party and cause them trouble.

Therefore, it would be best if these proud commoner sons, in order to prove that they were not trying to climb the social ladder, would hold a grudge against the Zhuo family, refuse their ambiguous goodwill, and voluntarily distance themselves from them. Time will wash everything away.

Let them swim back into the pool.

Let those small fry watch from outside the castle; they're not worthy at all.

Having figured out where the troubles would lie, Xia Youmi could only wait and see.

Treat it as a game.

No matter how many side quests you unlock, you won't die.
