CHAPTER 435: CHAPTER 434: REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NEW GENERATION

Dormitory 105 is currently a picture of serenity.

Three middle-aged women are praising each other’s children while listing the faults of their own daughters, each displaying great humility!

The three girls occasionally help each other, but mostly they are chatting. They all seem very happy!

Zhen Yu had just popped her head in at the dormitory door when she was spotted by the woman facing the door! She immediately greeted enthusiastically: "Yo! Another one! Who brought you here? Are they not behind you? Come in! Come in!"

When everyone inside heard, Bai Xue immediately screamed, "Xiao Yu!"

Another exquisite aunt immediately said, "Oh, you know each other! That’s great! It’s easier to get along when you know each other!"

"She doesn’t live here! She lives upstairs!" Bai Xue, straightforward as always, revealed Zhen Yu’s intention, "She came to see me!"

"Xiao Yu, have you packed up everything already!? So fast?"

"Yeah! Just waiting for you!"

"Ah... mom mom mom!" Bai Xue immediately urged her mother, "Mom, let’s hurry!"

"I know, I know! Look at you," Mrs. Bai kept busy while scolding her daughter, "You are such a big girl now and all you do is yell! Why don’t you help out?! How can I be at ease when I go back?!"

The exquisite aunt immediately chimed in, "Absolutely! Look at my girl! If there’s a bed, she just collapses on it... sigh! We mothers are always worried sick about them!"

Seeing nothing was amiss with Bai Family, Zhen Yu left first, as she still had to speak with the people waiting outside.

——

Before lunch, the three families visited several shops and purchased all the necessary daily supplies.

Then Mrs. Bai suggested taking her daughter to shop for clothes in the city center! Zhen Yu thought that she probably didn’t want to always have meals with others.

With Mr. Han present, Zhen Yu naturally had no room to invite people. So, the Bai Family mother and daughter went their way first.

Mr. Han took his son, and the Zhen siblings for a meal, as he was about to leave Qi City and go back to the town after eating.

During the meal, besides advising the three to get along well, he also mentioned Mr. Zhen!

"Zhen Yan! Uncle knows you’ve already turned eighteen, a grown man. Xiao Yu is more mature than you, her big brother, in every aspect. You two must support and love each other! Never, never let each other down!"

Zhen Yan almost immediately promised, "I will! Uncle Han! I’ll definitely take good care of my sister!!"

"Your father... he’s in trouble himself now! If you siblings ever face difficulties, just tell Uncle! I can’t promise to sell everything I own, after all, I still need to provide for Ming Yue and his brother! But whatever I can do, I won’t hold back!"

Zhen Yu was silent for a while, eventually not wanting to carry doubts into the future.

"Uncle! Zhen, how did you persuade him?"

Han Youliang answered clearly, despite Zhen Yu’s vague questioning.

"You must have arranged it early! He’s not a fool! What’s the use of fighting over the custody of a daughter who has neither money nor property? It’s better to leave some leeway..."

"You actually remember Zhen Yan’s birthday?!"

"Sigh!" Mr. Han sighed deeply. "It’s all thanks to Aunt Han! We men just don’t remember dates like birthdays or holidays! It came up when I discussed it with her... so as they say, destiny is predetermined!"

——

Mr. Han didn’t let the kids see him off, so after lunch, he took the bus to the long-distance bus station himself.

The three left behind looked at each other for a while, but eventually, Zhen Yu spoke first.

"Military training starts tomorrow, let’s go back to the dorm and rest!"

"Ah? Right! You freshmen have military training!" Zhen Yan sympathetically looked at his sister and Han Mingyue, "Then go and lie down for a while! Starting tomorrow, it’s going to be tough for you..."

Zhen Yu silently nodded.

She wasn’t too worried about herself.

What concerned her more was Han Mingyue, who had ’recently recovered from a serious illness’! She feared his body, having just recovered, could not withstand the ravaging of the late summer heat.

And then there was Bai Xue, the little flower bud of our nation! She would definitely be wilted by the sun...

After handing a bottle of sunscreen to Han Mingyue at the dormitory building and reminding him to apply it, Zhen Yu briskly turned and went upstairs.

Dinner can be talked about at dinnertime!

Upon returning to the dormitory again, Zhen Yu found it was already full!

Upon her entrance, Ren Jing, who was on the lower bunk, immediately looked over! But just as Zhen Yu met her gaze, she swiftly moved her eyes away.

What’s the deal? It’s like seeing a ghost upon seeing her!

Zhen Yu silently mumbled to herself, thinking about picking up the basin and soap to go to the Water Room to wash her hands.

"Zhen Yu! The Dormitory Aunt is looking for you!"

Hu Xi, who was sitting on the upper bunk opposite, spoke up since Ren Jing and Zhang Lili both remained silent.

After all, Zhen Yu had just left when the dormitory supervisor came! It was only the three of them present.

Now, it wouldn’t be good if she didn’t pass the message on to Zhen Yu. What if it caused a delay in something important...

"Oh? Thank you!"

Zhen Yu was somewhat surprised, but still thanked her, then headed straight for the door.

——

When she arrived at the first floor and asked around, it turned out the Dormitory Aunt was just passing a message; the person who really wanted to see her was the freshman year director.

Zhen Yu had no choice but to leave the dorm building and head to the academic building!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Come in!"

Entering an office where many people were busy with their heads down, Zhen Yu stopped in her tracks.

She didn’t know which director she was supposed to find, nor did she know if she should disturb the teachers who were intently working. Therefore, she silently shifted towards a side of the door, making space at the entrance, and stood aside at an unobtrusive spot, silently waiting.

It took a full three to five minutes before a teacher suddenly looked up and asked casually, "Student, who are you looking for?"

"Hello, Teacher!" Zhen Yu bowed and straightened up, saying, "The freshman year director asked me to see him."

Hearing this, the male teacher immediately called out to a middle-aged woman sitting diagonally in front of him, "Director Feng! The student you were looking for is here!"

Director Feng, the middle-aged woman, quickly looked up, her gaze sharp as she turned towards Zhen Yu!

While being sized up by the other, Zhen Yu was also discreetly assessing her. If things went as expected, she would be under her jurisdiction for the coming year.

"You’re Zhen Yu, right! I’m notifying you now, you will give a speech as the representative of the new students at tomorrow’s opening ceremony!"

Zhen Yu pursed her lips.

Frankly, she had little interest in such attention-grabbing activities!

But as she had already been officially informed, there was no way for her to refuse.

So she could only bow her head and bend over, "Understood, Director Feng."

Possibly due to being busy with many things, Director Feng, seeing her agreement, instantly waved her hand.

"Go back! Prepare your speech well!"
