Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

"When you're done with your work, sit down and rest for a while. Don't overwork yourself."

"Even the smallest ailment, such as a headache, fever, or backache, should be taken to the doctor. Don't delay."

"Your health is the most important thing. Only then can I feel at ease here."

On the other end of the phone, Chu Yu sat on an old wooden chair, the light around her dim and soft.

As she listened to her daughter's words of advice, her eyes gradually welled up with tears, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up slightly.

With a gentle smile, she softly replied, "Mengran, don't worry, Mom will take good care of herself."

"But you and Chen Dong are studying at a university outside, in a place where you don't know anyone. Don't work too hard."

"Studying is important, but health is the foundation of everything. If you overwork yourself, your mother will be heartbroken."

"If you encounter any difficulties in your studies, and the teacher explains it several times but you still don't understand."

"If you have any grievances or feel upset, you should tell your mother. Don't keep it to yourself, or you'll get sick."

Chu Yu paused, took a deep breath to calm herself, and hesitated before continuing, "Also, Meng Ran, spend the money you need to spend outside, don't be stingy."

"If you want to eat something delicious, like the small cakes from your favorite cake shop."

"Or if you want to buy something, even a nice piece of clothing, don't hesitate. If you don't have enough money, just tell your family."

"No matter how hard Mom works, even if she has to take on multiple jobs, she won't let you have any financial difficulties."

Hearing her mother's words, Chu Mengran felt a sudden pang of sadness, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice choked with emotion.

"Mom, I know. I don't need the money. Dongzi started his own business while he was in college and earned several hundred thousand yuan."

"On the contrary, if you need money, just give me a call and I'll have Chen Dong transfer the money to you."

"So don't worry about me, I'm doing fine here."

"Dongzi takes good care of me; he's very good to me."

“Last time I was sick, he was busy taking care of me, buying medicine and cooking porridge. He was more attentive than I was to myself.”

Hearing these words, Chu Yu felt relieved of some of her worries.

"That's fine, that's fine."

At this point, Chu Yu fell silent for a moment.

Her fingers unconsciously tugged at the hem of her clothes as she cautiously probed, "Mengran, Mom wants to talk to you about something."

“You know what kind of beastly things Meng Zhengguo has done. I feel disgusted and my heart aches just thinking about it.”

"I really don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. Mom is wondering, if we were to officially divorce, what would you... think?"

Chu Mengran didn't hesitate for a moment. Her eyes instantly became incredibly firm, and she said resolutely, "Mom, I absolutely support you!"

“This kind of person is not worth any more of your effort; his actions are utterly depraved.”

“You should have left him a long time ago. You’ve been swallowing your anger and suffering so much.”

“If you divorce him, you can live a comfortable life from now on, and I can rest assured.”

"Don't worry about what others say. Those gossips don't matter. Your own happiness is the most important thing."

Hearing her daughter's firm answer, Chu Yu felt reassured.

Her tense nerves finally relaxed, and the tears in her eyes could no longer be held back, sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto the back of her smooth hand.

"Okay, with you saying that, Mom feels more confident."

"Mom has really had enough of him. She doesn't want to maintain her marriage with him for even a day longer."

“If it weren’t for your feelings, Mom would have gone to court to divorce him long ago.”

The mother and daughter chatted for a long time.

Chu Mengran made new friends through the club activities she participated in at school.

From the interesting teacher she encountered to the haggard vendor Chu Yu recently met while shopping at the market.

The neighbor's cat gave birth to a litter of adorable kittens.

They shared everything, big or small, about every little detail of their lives.

Until Chen Guilan's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.

"You two have been chatting for quite a while now. It's getting late, so you should both get some rest. You both have things to do tomorrow."

Chu Mengran and Chu Yu then realized that they had been talking for a long time.

Chu Mengran glanced at the wall clock; the hour hand had already pointed to the dead of night.

Both of them were reluctant to part, but they knew they couldn't waste any more time.

"Mom, I'll hang up now. You get some rest. Goodnight."

Chu Mengran's voice was filled with a deep sense of reluctance as she gently bit her lip, as if she could hold onto the time she spent talking to her mother.

"Okay, Mengran, you should go to sleep early too. Goodnight, my darling daughter."

Chu Yu said softly, her voice full of tenderness and longing.

She gently stroked the telephone receiver, as if she could touch her daughter far away in Beiping.

As the dial tone came through the phone, Chu Mengran slowly put it down.

I felt both heartache for my mother's ordeal and hope for her future.

She clenched her fists and secretly vowed to make sure her mother would live a happy life in the future.

Meanwhile, Chu Yu, who had just hung up the phone, planned to hire a lawyer in a couple of days to file for divorce from Meng Zhengguo.

The wheels of time roll ever onward, and two months and five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these intense yet fulfilling days, the four programmers in the 361 Company's programming team were like four tireless warriors.

They threw themselves wholeheartedly into the battle of game development.

They worked day and night, and the office lights often stayed on until late at night.

The code on the computer screen, like dancing musical notes, records their hard work and dedication.

Finally, thanks to everyone's tireless efforts, the highly anticipated cartridge game "I Run an Inn in Chang'an 1" was successfully released.

It is like a dazzling new star, about to shine in the gaming market.

To celebrate this milestone moment, Chen Dong booked a spacious and bright private room at a three-star hotel well in advance.

The moment everyone stepped into the private room, a festive and lively atmosphere greeted them.

Colorful balloons hung on the wall in a neat and orderly fashion, like cheerful and jumping elves, adding a touch of liveliness and joy to the whole room.

On a spacious round table, there were exquisite tableware, the white plates shimmering softly under the light.

Comfortable chairs were neatly arranged around the room, as if waiting for everyone to start this joyous feast together.

Chen Dong meticulously prepared and spent over a thousand yuan to prepare an incredibly lavish banquet.

The table was laden with delicious dishes, each exuding an enticing aroma, as if rewarding everyone for their hard work.
