Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1570: Chapter 915: Passing the Flower with the Drum

Yaoguang pretended to look into Xing Nong’s pocket and sighed: ”Qiu’er, what I’m saying is, if you have a boyfriend, when should you use him if not now?” As she said this, she glanced at Lu Lu, ”If he’s this stingy before marriage, how will you live after you’re married?”

Lu Lu’s lips curled up slightly: ”Yaoguang, what you’re saying is that I should pay for this meal, is that right?”

”How can I interfere in your couple’s affairs?”

Xing Nong rolled her eyes: ”Tch, Demon, we’ve known each other for so many years, do you think I don’t know what you’re planning?”

If Lu Lu pays, you’ll accuse me of not keeping my word; if Lu Lu doesn’t pay, you’ll say he’s stingy. No matter what we do, it’s wrong.

Demon, I just want to remind you that luck turns, and if it ever turns your way into my hands, then... hmm... ”

”Threatening me?” Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, ”You think I’m easily scared?”

”You two, that’s enough. This big table of people is waiting.”

”Zhan Hao, are you feeling sorry for your wife?” Xing Nong wasn’t buying it at all, staring at Zhan Hao who stepped in to mediate, with a face full of disdain, ”If you really care for her, settle things with your family first, and don’t let her feel wronged when she visits your home!”

”Qiu’er!” Yaoguang quickly stopped her, looking at Zhan Hao nervously, ”I said it’s possible I’d visit your home for the new year, I... just said I was a bit nervous, nothing more.”

”Demon, really?” Luo Lian couldn’t stand it anymore, ”You haven’t even married into the family yet, and you’re already acting like a wronged little daughter-in-law. You’re not like this before us!”

Xing Nong nodded in agreement: ”Exactly, you’re like a big bad wolf with us, and a little lamb in front of them. You care more about love than friendship!”

”You all...” Yaoguang paused, not knowing what to say. She understood they were using the opportunity to apply pressure on Zhan Hao so she could be accepted when she visited his family. She was grateful to them, but... would Zhan Hao be angry that she shared everything with her friends?

Seeing her thoughts, Luo Lian whispered in her ear: ”Silly, if he can’t even handle this, then wouldn’t staying with him be exhausting in the future?”

”Alright, I understand what you all mean. Yaoguang is lucky to have friends like you. Don’t worry, she won’t feel wronged when she visits my home.

Here’s the deal: if my family does anything to embarrass Yaoguang, I’ll immediately go back with her to Island City for the New Year!”

”Zhan Hao, as a man, your word should be reliable. What if you break your promise?” Xing Nong challenged with a face full of disbelief.

”If I dare break my promise, you all can decide what to do!”

”Alright, you said it. We’ll wait to see your actions. If you let Yaoguang feel even a bit wronged, how about crawling around the campus when you return?”

Yaoguang quickly said: ”Qiu’er, change the punishment to something else...”

”No need to change it! Let it be decided...” Zhan Hao interrupted Yaoguang, stating seriously, ”Have faith in me!”

”It’s not a matter of faith. Who knows what might happen suddenly? Are you really going to fall out with your family for me?”

”If they make things difficult for you, temporarily falling out is no big deal.”

”You two...” Tang Luo, who had remained silent, couldn’t help but shiver, ”Please consider the feelings of the single classmates, will you?”

Ying Nuo also playfully added: ”Exactly, if you’re going to show off your love, do it privately. Flaunting it in front of everyone isn’t nice.”

”...”

Everyone laughed and joked, yet Qu Yue, who usually enjoyed lively occasions, sat blankly, showing no interest in what was happening.

Ye Xuan noticed and gently pinched Luo Ye, who was chatting with Luo Feng, and gestured with his chin towards Qu Yue.

While listening to Luo Feng talk about Li Zejun’s marriage progress, and keeping an eye on the commotion around Yaoguang and Zhan Hao, Luo Ye hadn’t noticed Qu Yue’s unusual behavior. With Ye Xuan’s reminder, she frowned slightly. Since she knew Qu Yue, she never saw him this downcast before.

”How about you chat with my brother.” Luo Ye said as she switched places with Ye Xuan, sat beside Qu Yue, and poked him: ”Young Master, what are you thinking about so intently?”

”Huh?” Qu Yue was momentarily stunned, coming back to his senses, lifted his glass, ”Ye’er, I didn’t rest well last night, my mind’s a bit cloudy. Here, I toast to you.”

”Who wants to drink with you?” Luo Ye snatched the glass from his hand, ”Young Master, it’s not like we just met, we know your personality, what’s really going on? Tell us, let everyone help brainstorm, it’s better than you brooding alone, right?”
