Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 742 End of Sophomore Year
Lu Yuanqiu turned around: "Then I won't take off my clothes!"

Liu Wangchun: "Who cares about you?"

Lu Yuanqiu continued to scrutinize their backs with regret. He had been staring at Bai Qingxia's beautiful back all night without finding a chance to touch it, and now he had to change his clothes back.

He stood up and walked towards Zheng Yifeng, who was sitting opposite him. The guy was still slumped over, somewhat silent, and hadn't said a word yet.

"Still thinking about your mother?" Lu Yuanqiu asked, his hands instinctively reaching into his two trouser pockets, but he paused, feeling two soft things. He took them out and looked down; they were Bai Qingxia's and Liu Wangchun's stockings.

...After the presentation at the banquet, it seemed as if he had put it back on.

Lu Yuanqiu chuckled, sitting down next to Zheng Yifeng with two stockings twirling in his hand. He wondered who the sexy suspender stockings in his hand belonged to—Liu Wangchun? He vaguely remembered her taking them from the dressing room. Bai Qingxia certainly wouldn't wear something like this.

Lu Yuanqiu tilted his head back and covered his face with another black stocking; he was only interested in Bai Qingxia.

"What are you doing?" Zheng Yifeng turned his head.

Lu Yuanqiu answered with his eyes closed: "Health preservation."

Zheng Yifeng sighed and murmured, "I just wanted to find out where my father is now, but I didn't expect that the matter of my mother would cause me such a headache."

Lu Yuanqiu took off the stockings and turned his head: "By the way, is there any news about the matter I asked your second uncle to investigate last time?"

Zheng Yifeng: "I got in touch with my mother's friend in the United States. That person did know my father and said that what my father did during the five years he went to the United States was to investigate the cause of my mother's death. But she never saw my father again after that, and she hasn't seen him since."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Didn't you ask her where your father lived in the United States back then?"

“I asked her, and she gave me the address. My second uncle is arranging for people to go and look for him, but there’s still no news. The search area will probably have to be expanded. It’s impossible for him to have lived in the same place for so many years. Besides… we can’t be sure that my father’s later disappearance was really because he went to the United States.”

"I think it's pretty much true, because he has a history of going to the United States without telling his family."

There was a commotion on the second floor. Two girls came downstairs. Bai Qingxia changed back into the clothes she had come in and was carrying a paper bag. The paper bag clearly contained the dress that Liu Wangchun had given her. Lu Yuanqiu liked this backless dress.

Liu Wangchun: "The driver is waiting. Are you all ready? If you are, let's go."

Bai Qingxia carefully stepped up the stairs and echoed, "Go back to school and hurry up and review for the final exams, Lu Yuanqiu."

After the two girls finished speaking, their gazes suddenly fell on the two stockings on the table.

Liu Wangchun: "Why are the stockings here?"

"Oh, I brought it back," Lu Yuanqiu explained.

Looking at the stockings spread out in strips, Bai Qingxia felt a bad premonition.

Zheng Yifeng walked towards the villa entrance with his hands in his pockets, calmly reporting, "Lu Yuanqiu smelled the one on the left."

"So what? Is it illegal for me to smell my girlfriend's stockings? Pfft." Lu Yuanqiu retorted openly.

Bai Qingxia frowned, stamped her foot anxiously, and pointed to the suspender dress on the table: "This is mine!"

"Huh?" Lu Yuanqiu was stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw Liu Wangchun jumping up.

"Take my kick!"

"Fuck!"

On the way back, Lu Yuanqiu looked like he had been kicked and crippled by Liu Wangchun, and he lay on Bai Qingxia's lap, unwilling to get up.

Bai Qingxia was too lazy to pay attention to him and let him sleep like that. Unless Lu Yuanqiu was being naughty and his face was burying itself in her thigh, she would gently slap his face and then glare at him.

"You really need to study hard when you get back. Everyone else has finished the college entrance exam, but our exams aren't over yet." Bai Qingxia's voice, urging Lu Yuanqiu to study, rang out from above as she gently rubbed his chin.

Lu Yuanqiu found her noisy, so he lifted the hem of her short-sleeved shirt to cover his head. In the warm, fragrant space, Lu Yuanqiu's gaze followed the warmth of her lower abdomen upwards, only to be abruptly blocked by Bai Qingxia. She pressed her hand against the fabric below her chest, blushing as she pulled the short-sleeved shirt back down. This time, she slapped Lu Yuanqiu's face harder: "Behave yourself!"

"Is Lu Yuanqiu awake yet? If not, why leave him in the car?" Liu Wangchun asked from the passenger seat.

Lu Yuanqiu immediately sat up and stretched: "You're awake."

Are you kidding me? You really want to leave him on the highway?

Lu Yuanqiu glanced at Zheng Yifeng, who remained silent. He hadn't participated in any of the conversation in the car, his head resting against the window the whole way, his eyes seemingly lost in the pitch-black night.

In fact, Lu Yuanqiu could understand his feelings. Not only had he not found his father, but he had also learned that his mother's cause of death was "murder." All sorts of miscellaneous information and speculations flooded his mind today. Everyone has a mental threshold, and even someone with his most powerful brain is no exception.

“Zheng Yifeng, it’s time to fulfill your promise to me.” Lu Yuanqiu said to him.

Zheng Yifeng continued looking out the window, replying calmly, "Have you figured it out? Tell me."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Smile."

Bai Qingxia and Liu Wangchun both looked over upon hearing this, curiously observing the scene.

Zheng Yifeng turned his head and looked at Lu Yuanqiu with a puzzled expression: "That's it? Actually, you can make good use of this request. Like Zhang Yifei, I will definitely keep my word."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Of course not. You are my good friend. Don't talk about not going against your conscience or hurting yourself. Even if you go against your conscience and hurt yourself, I believe you will definitely help me if I am in trouble, just like I will do everything I can to help you right now."

Zheng Yifeng laughed.

Lu Yuanqiu: "We're even for now."

……

A month later, the holidays began, and Lu Yuanqiu and the others officially ended their sophomore year.

Big Ben Milk Tea Shop.

Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia knew that Zhong Jincheng was taking Luo Wei back to Lucheng today. They heard that Zhong's father had driven all the way from Lucheng to pick up his son and daughter-in-law, so they took advantage of the morning to come to the store to help the young couple pack their things.

Luo Wei's belly was four months along, and it was slightly undulating, like the beer belly that middle-aged men develop after drinking too much.

She's been helping out at the bubble tea shop lately. The work isn't strenuous, and since Zhong Jincheng has to attend classes, Luo Wei has saved him a lot of trouble.

"Senior sister," Lu Yuanqiu called out from the doorway.

Luo Wei, supporting her lower back, turned around and smiled, "You've arrived?"

Upon seeing this, Bai Qingxia immediately stepped forward, took the cardboard box from her, placed it aside, and helped her sit down: "You need to rest more, leave the heavy work to us."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Where is Zhong Jincheng?"

Luo Wei sat down and explained, "He's packing his things in his dorm."

Seeing the many purple grapes on the table in the shop, Lu Yuanqiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "You didn't hear that eating grapes will make your child have big eyes, did you?"

Luo Wei nodded: "Yes."

"Why?" Bai Qingxia looked at Lu Yuanqiu in confusion.

　I estimate the novel will be finished the month after next, which is the original planned schedule. I just wanted to let you know since someone asked about it.
