Rebirth Must Be Happy

Chapter 140 [139] What if I really can't recognize him? (Fourth update, please subscribe)
After playing around for a while, Chen Xingruo asked, "Sister, do you want to know why Mom and Dad hate each other so much?"

"I want to, but I don't know."

Chen Xingzhu shook her head, leaning against the pillow. "Do you know?"

"Yes, I've found out."

Chen Xingruo leaned against the pillow in the same position as her sister, her fingers twirling her sister's hair between her fingers, and said casually, "Dad and Mom, as well as Li Gaoyuan and Li Gaoyuan's wife, who is also Li Yunxue's mother, were all college classmates and roommates."

"When I first entered university, my parents met by chance and then organized a social event for the people in two dorms. Since my parents were the organizers, they were naturally regarded as a couple by the other roommates, and the others formed their own teams."

"But in fact, Dad liked Li Yunxue's mother, and Mom liked Li Gaoyuan. They didn't like each other, but everyone else was trying to bring them together, and since they both wanted to be in a relationship, they ended up getting together in a daze and eventually got married..."

After a moment of silence, Chen Xingzhu asked, "Don't they like each other?"

"Ah."

Chen Xingruo nodded. "Later, Li Yunxue's mother died. Dad was very sad. Mom realized it. Then the two of them checked their accounts and found out that they had been deceiving each other for more than ten years. They both felt that the other had delayed them because if either of them had told the truth, there would have been no mistake."

She winked at her sister: "Sis, do you know why I'm telling you all this?"

Chen Xingzhu immediately thought of Xu Jinhuan, understanding the situation perfectly, but deliberately asked, "Why?"

"To show off!"

Chen Xingruo smiled, her smile as radiant as a blooming flower. "When we were little, you always acted like the older sister, like you knew everything... But now? I know more, don't I?"

"Yes, yes, you're really amazing now."

Seeing her happy, Chen Xingzhu was also happy, but she also felt a pang of sadness for some reason and asked, "Did Dad tell you?"

"No, Sister Shan told me."

Chen Xingzhu thought for a moment: "Who is Sister Shan?"

"The concubine that Dad married, who is also our stepmother, is named Yu Peishan."

Chen Xingruo said very casually, "But we usually call each other sisters..."

He paused for a moment, then added, "I call her sister, and she calls me sister too."

"what?"

Chen Xingzhu was a little confused, "You...she..."

"I was the one who brought her together with Dad."

Chen Xingruo proudly boasted to her sister, "Once, Dad went to a teahouse to discuss business, and I went with him. I got lost while wandering around. Yu Peishan was in college at the time and was working as a hostess at the teahouse. She helped me, so I introduced her to Dad."

"Anyway, Dad will take a concubine sooner or later. He doesn't lack money, so he wants to find a young and beautiful wife. Yu Peishan grew up in the mountains. Her mother was sold into the mine. Her father died in an accident while working in the coal mine a long time ago. Her mother was almost beaten to death by her grandparents for sending her to university. They felt that her mother was wasting money by supporting a girl's education."

"She was young and beautiful, but she lacked money. She wanted to bring her mother to Beijing so she could live a good life for a few years. So I taught her how to get close to my father and created opportunities for her. Before she even graduated from university, she got pregnant with my father's child."

“Dad talks about business all day long, and he’s always surrounded by all sorts of little devils. I’m the one who helps him come up with ideas, and we work together to fight off these demons and mistresses… We have a great relationship.”

She got excited again as she said this: "Sister, let me tell you, kids are so much fun, but now that he's a bit older, he's not as cute as he was when he was little, and he bothers me every day."

Chen Xingzhu had no experience with this, but seeing her sister's joy, she knew that she had been happy all these years, so she also became happy and nodded with a smile: "Yes."

"I've also studied boxing, I'm pretty good at fighting. If it weren't for finding you, I wouldn't have put up with this humiliation today. If that Xu Jinhuan had dared to touch my hand, I would have kicked him flying..."

Chen Xingruo snorted, "Don't let his big size fool you, he might not be able to beat me."

That's obviously bragging. In a real fight, without weapons, physique is always the primary factor determining combat effectiveness.

However, Chen Xingzhu didn't expose her sister, and said with a smile, "He won't fight back."

"I'm not afraid of him even if he fights back."

Chen Xingruo said confidently, "Sis, if he dares to bully you in the future, just tell me, and I promise I'll scold him until he can't lift his head up... I'm very good at scolding people." "Impressive, impressive."

Chen Xingzhu believed this without a doubt and nodded gently in praise, "Do you talk to Dad like that too?"

"No, I'm also very good at being charming."

Chen Xingruo became even more smug, "Sis, I'll teach you later. Let me tell you, sometimes being charming is much more effective than being fierce. It's not just a trick you can use with Dad; you need to know how to be charming with your boyfriend or husband too..."

Chen Xingzhu thought of Xu Jinhuan again, blushing as she asked, "Have you ever been in a relationship?"

"No, but I'm really good at dating!"

Chen Xingruo said matter-of-factly, "When I was in elementary school, I helped Sister Shan win over our dad. In junior high, I even helped my deskmate pursue our class monitor, who was very handsome. Although we didn't succeed, it was because that guy liked me, so it doesn't mean I'm bad at dating."

"In my first year of high school, I tutored my deskmate again, the same one from junior high. This time, she liked a boy who played basketball at our school..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Xingzhu smiled and asked, "He likes you too?"

"You can't like me every time, can you?"

Chen Xingruo rolled her eyes at her sister, "This time it worked. The two of them secretly went to a hotel a few days ago and kept it from me, thinking I didn't know... I'll interrogate her when I get back."

"what?"

Chen Xingzhu's worldview was somewhat shattered. "How old is she?"

"The same age as me."

Chen Xingruo seemed unsurprised. "I go to a private school, which some people call an elite school. The management is actually quite strict, but there's always a way if you're determined... Several of my classmates are like that."

"..."

Chen Xingzhu didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Hey, sis, you can't do this!"

Chen Xingruo added, "We look exactly alike. If you get together with that Xu something... well, that would be the same as me..."

As she spoke, she blushed slightly, but still fiercely warned, "Anyway, you're not allowed... even if you get married in the future, you're not allowed to let him see you undressed, wouldn't that be the same as him seeing me undressed?"

What are you thinking about?

Chen Xingzhu found it both funny and embarrassing, and gave her sister another slap, saying, "Don't talk about this anymore, let's change the subject."

"Can I see it?"

Chen Xingruo thought for a moment, then asked her sister very seriously, "I want to see what the differences are between us... We can't be the same even if we take our clothes off, can we?"

"go away!"

Chen Xingzhu felt a strong urge to kick her sister off the stage, finding her even more annoying than Xu Jinhuan.

"Shall we go out and have fun tomorrow?"

Chen Xingruo thought about it for a while, feeling a little shy, so she changed the subject, "How about we invite that Xu something-or-other to come along? I'll wear your clothes tomorrow, but don't tell him I'm coming too. I'll pretend to be you and see if he can recognize me this time..."

She was still resentful that Xu Jinhuan had seen through her disguise as her sister during the day, and wanted to get revenge by mocking him.

"No."

Chen Xingzhu immediately refused. For some reason, she thought of what her sister had just said, such as "admitting mistakes after marriage."

She didn't want to see Xu Jinhuan mistake someone for someone else!

Most importantly, what if Xu Jinhuan really can't tell the difference?
