Rebirth Must Be Happy

Xu Jinhuan offered a string of thanks, which drew a burst of laughter from the students below, who were getting impatient.

Many students near Class 3 of Grade 1 looked over, wanting to see which one was the girl who was nominated for thanks. Some people who already knew this beautiful girl also took the opportunity to openly take a look.

Even though Song Zhiyu had just finished her performance, being called out and teased in front of the entire school made her cheeks flush. However, she was not angry; instead, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

She had served Xu Jinhuan tea and water, but only two or three times at most. As for providing him with inspiration, that was out of the question. She hadn't even returned to China yet, and his game was almost finished.

Xu Jinhuan lied, most likely to silence her by mentioning her name at this moment, lest she thank Chen Xingzhu but not her, and then be mocked by her later...

She could see through Xu Jinhuan's thoughts, but she was still very happy.

Regardless, the fact that he thought of these things shows that he still cares about me...

Li Yunxue pouted, a little dissatisfied and a little envious, and looked up at Xu Jinhuan on the podium.

Why doesn't Brother Jinhuan thank himself?

"...I hope that my award can inspire everyone. For example, when you are tired or doubt your ability to succeed, you can think of me. Xu Jinhuan can win the national first prize, so why can't I succeed?"

Another burst of laughter erupted on the playground, and some boys even shouted, "That's right!"

This immediately drew an angry glare from his own homeroom teacher.

"Study time is precious, so I won't waste everyone's time. That concludes my remarks."

Xu Jinhuan skipped over a lot of tedious and philosophical content, quickly and decisively ending the boring speech segment.

"Whoa Whoah"

The students below applauded enthusiastically, praising him highly for not wasting his life, even though this was the second time he had wasted it.

Next, Chang Yanqiu spoke, and he was noticeably more nervous, but this made the school leaders and teachers very gratified and satisfied, because compared to Xu Jinhuan, this was a serious, earnest, and normal commendation speech.

Xu Jinhuan was just making those interactive moments and throwing in jokes all the time. If you didn't know better, you'd think he was doing a stand-up comedy routine. He didn't look serious at all.

"Let's give another round of applause to our two students!"

After Chang Yanqiu finished speaking, Liang Hongtao led the students in applause again, and then announced, "Okay, that concludes today's commendation ceremony. Dismissed!"

The students, who had been standing in neat rows on the playground, suddenly broke apart and surged toward the playground gate.

"I'm sorry, Professor Zhuang and Professor Fu, I had a sudden inspiration and changed a couple of lines at the last minute."

Xu Jinhuan ran off the stage with his medal hanging on his arm and went to find his homeroom teacher and his wife to sincerely apologize, saying, "Next time I will definitely read strictly according to the script."

"Next time..."

Fu Qingxuan rolled her eyes, too lazy to say anything more to him. She waved her hand dismissively, as if shooing away a fly.

Zhuang Cheng'an felt both helpless and somewhat amused.

Do you think it's so easy to get this level of recognition again?
"Brother Huan, your sister is at our school too?"

"Brother Huan, what does your sister look like?"

Xu Jinhuan walked towards the gate of the playground. Several boys came over to greet her enthusiastically, but it was obvious that they all had ulterior motives.

Xu Jinhuan said irritably, "Get out of here! If you dare to harass my sister, I'll castrate you all one by one!"

Xie Zhiqiang also came over, wanting to return the favor, but he couldn't beat him even in the game, let alone in real life, so he didn't have the confidence to say, "If you dare to mess with my sister, I'll slap you." He just pouted and asked, "Are you going back for breakfast?"

"Go back."

Xu Jinhuan nodded. "Why don't you go practice driving and take your sister's car over to drive?"

"forget it."

Xie Zhiqiang was tempted, but quickly gave up, because he would definitely have to pay for the gas himself. He wanted to save his pocket money to go find "Tao Tao" after the college entrance examination, and he couldn't waste his money on such meaningless showing off.

There are no more girls in school who can make his heart flutter, so he needs to spend his money wisely and not waste it.

The group parted ways on the school path. Xie Zhiqiang and the others went to the cafeteria, while Xu Jinhuan went to the school path next to the bicycle shed, where Song Zhiyu and Chen Xingzhu were waiting.

Song Zhiyu seemed very excited, gesturing wildly as she spoke to Chen Xingzhu. Xu Jinhuan walked over and vaguely heard words like "Zhiyu...they're all dumbfounded."

He walked over and asked curiously, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'only pay'?"

"nothing."

Song Zhiyu shook her head, unwilling to tell him the truth, and cheerfully said, "Let's go home for dinner, I'm starving."

"sister!"

Just as they were about to get on the bus, Li Yunxue walked over with another girl. She greeted Chen Xingzhu excitedly, then glanced at Xu Jinhuan and called out shyly, "Brother Jinhuan~" Chen Xingzhu nodded gently, while Xu Jinhuan waved and smiled, "Going to eat, right? Eat more, bye-bye."

"..."

Li Yunxue was hoping he would call her to get in the car together, but she nodded with a hint of disappointment and asked, "Are you going home for dinner?"

"Yeah, bye-bye."

Song Zhiyu waved to her, then grabbed Chen Xingzhu's arm and they both climbed into the back seat of the car.

"Is Chen Xingzhu really your sister?"

Watching Xu Jinhuan drive away, the girl next to her couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going home for dinner with your sister?"

"..."

Li Yunxue didn't know how to answer, because if she said that her sister rented a place outside, people would definitely ask why she didn't live at home.

How did she answer?

She said she was jealous that her older sister was prettier than her, and that she had been making trouble for her and bullying her since they were young, which forced her to move out of the house.

Chen Xingzhu is so famous at school that if she were to say it out loud, the whole school would probably know about it very quickly.

How would you all view yourself?
She finally felt a pang of regret for what she had done over the years, and forced a smile, saying, "I don't want to eat at home. I'm so tired of eating here since I was a child... Let's go to the cafeteria."

Do you think she's stupid?

Inside the car, Song Zhiyu asked Chen Xingzhu curiously, then said with dissatisfaction, "She's always pretending to be stupid, as if she can act like nothing happened, and everyone else has to play along and pretend nothing happened too..."

Chen Xingzhu said, "You've been spoiled."

"It's only because you're so kind, Sister Xingzhu, that if it were me..."

Song Zhiyu hummed twice and then said, "Brother, say something!"

As Xu Jinhuan carefully followed the crowd out of the school gate, he asked, "What do you guys want to eat for breakfast this morning?"

"You just know how to eat!"

Song Zhiyu was a little dissatisfied and muttered, "But since you still know how to thank me, I won't hold it against you..."

She chuckled to herself and turned to look at Chen Xingzhu: "Sister Xingzhu, are your classmates making fun of you?"

Chen Xingzhu shook his head.

Xu Jinhuan had already told everyone that the S500 belonged to her, so the few hundred yuan developer fee was nothing to her. Her classmates were already immune to it, and even Zhou Wei and the others just joked about it without taking it seriously.

The three returned home and heard Xie Wanqing whispering, "Auntie, Auntie, come and see, Xiao Guai is peeing on the toilet..."

"I gonna go see!"

Xu Jinhuan rushed over and saw Xiao Guai squatting on the toilet with her legs apart, clinging to the upright toilet seat to steady herself. The blue water in the toilet bowl, which was filled with toilet cleaner, quickly faded and turned yellow.

After Xiao Guai finished peeing, it was about to reach out its paw to press the flush button when it suddenly turned around and saw a bunch of stupid humans staring at it from the doorway. It meowed and then ran over to rub against Chen Xingzhu.

Chen Xingzhu squatted down, picked it up, and put it back on the toilet, saying softly, "Flush it first."

Little Guai obviously didn't understand, but seeing her pointing at the flush button, she still jumped up, stepped on the flush button with her paw, and some water came out.

It's not an adult yet. Although it has been well-nourished during this period, it only weighs a little over 5 kilograms and can't fully push down the flush button.

"Wow, you could be a social media influencer!"

Xu Jinhuan clicked her tongue in amazement. Seeing Xie Wanqing about to get food as a reward for Xiao Guai, she ignored them and went to get bowls and chopsticks to prepare for dinner.

"sister,"

While eating breakfast, Chen Xingruo made a video call to her sister. She was already familiar with the others, so she asked her sister to turn on the speakerphone and said, "I asked around, and the second season of The Voice of China is probably going to start next March. What songs do you think I should sing?"

Chen Xingzhu asked in surprise, "Isn't the first season still airing?"

Today is only September 3rd, and the first season of The Voice of China has only just finished airing its eighth episode; the mentor group assessments haven't even finished yet.

"Yes, but it's very popular, so there will definitely be a second season, and the second season will probably have even more people, so I need to prepare even earlier."

Chen Xingruo sighed, "If I had known earlier, I would have participated in the first season. Maybe I would already be famous by now..."

Xu Jinhuan was about to say something sarcastic when Song Zhiyu spoke first: "It's also possible that you're already completely finished." (End of Chapter)
