Reborn in 2006, I met Mr. Zhou from the past.

Chapter 106 You're My Friend

"Alright, alright then." Su Fengnan, knowing when to stop, said with a smile, "We've become friends through a misunderstanding. Let's get to know each other again. I'm Su Fengnan, eighteen years old, and a senior at Zijiang County No. 2 Middle School."

Zhang Xinrui also said seriously: "Zhang Xinrui, seventeen years old, is a senior in Class 1 of Experimental Class 3 at Zhucheng Experimental No. 3 Middle School."

"Wow, you go to a top-tier high school! What university do you want to go to?"

The light in Zhang Xinrui's eyes dimmed instantly at the mention of university, and her tone became dejected: "I love dancing and have been studying for several years. I want to take the art exam. But my mother strongly disagrees. She hopes that I can go to a key university through a proper exam and then take the civil service exam in a stable way."

"So, that's why you argued with your mom and ran away from school without even going to school?"

Zhang Xinrui bit her lower lip and nodded silently.

Su Fengnan glanced down at her phone; it was already 10 p.m. "You just ran off like that? Your parents are probably frantically searching for you all over the world right now."

Before Zhang Xinrui could even reply, a frantic shout came from not far away.

"Xiao Rui!"

Zhang Xinrui turned around abruptly, her eyes instantly welling up with tears again: "Brother, you're finally here!"

She got up and ran over, grabbing Zhang Wenhao's arm tightly, her eyes brimming with tears, looking utterly pitiful.

"Xiao Rui, tell me what happened? Your parents have been calling me non-stop!" Zhang Wenhao looked his sister up and down nervously, making sure she had no injuries before letting out a long sigh of relief.

When he received Zhang Xinrui's call and learned that she had encountered bad people but had been rescued by kind people, he immediately dropped his engagements and rushed over. He was terrified the whole way and ran two red lights before finally arriving.

"So what did you tell them?" Zhang Xinrui asked in a low voice.

"I told them you were with me, and they told me to get you back safely." Zhang Wenhao sighed helplessly.

"Brother, I don't want to go back. You absolutely can't tell my parents about tonight. If they find out... I'm really in trouble. Just let me stay for the night, and you can take me to school tomorrow morning."

Seeing his younger sister's pleading eyes, Zhang Wenhao had no choice but to give in: "Fine." After all, she was the only girl in the Zhang family this generation.

Then, Zhang Xinrui recounted in detail her argument with her parents, her runaway from home, her encounter with bad people, and how Su Fengnan saved her.

Zhang Wenhao was terrified and filled with lingering fear: "What about the person who saved you?"

Zhang Xinrui pulled Zhang Wenhao to Su Fengnan, pointed at her and said, "Brother, it was this Su Fengnan who saved me. She even cut her hand while saving me."

By the light of the streetlamp, Zhang Wenhao finally saw Su Fengnan's face clearly. His heart skipped a beat, secretly delighted that she was the girl from yesterday. He had been so worried about his sister that he hadn't even noticed his benefactor's appearance.

"Su Fengnan, I'm Zhang Xinrui's brother. Thank you so much for tonight. If it weren't for your courageous help, the consequences for my sister would have been unimaginable." Zhang Wenhao's tone was sincere and his attitude was very polite. "Please leave me your contact information so my whole family can come and thank you in person another day."

He already had a very good impression of Su Fengnan, and now that she had saved his younger sister, his gratitude was beyond words.

Su Fengnan waved her hand and said calmly, "No need to be so polite. Anyone would have done the same. It's good that everyone is alright."

Zhang Wenhao's gaze fell on Su Fengnan's bandaged arm, and he turned to Zhang Xinrui and said, "How about this, Xinrui, let's take Su to the hospital to have her wound re-examined."

"No need," Su Fengnan quickly interrupted.

All she wanted to do now was get back to the hotel and rest. She had refrained from leaving earlier so as not to interrupt the siblings' conversation, but now she was truly exhausted.

"The wound isn't deep, and it's already bandaged. There's no need to go to the hospital. It's so late now, and everyone has school tomorrow, so you should all go home and rest."

Zhang Wenhao looked at Zhang Xinrui, his eyes asking: Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?

Feeling a little guilty under her cousin's gaze, Zhang Xinrui tugged at Su Fengnan's sleeve and advised, "Su Fengnan, why don't we take you to the hospital? With my brother here, it won't be any trouble at all."

"You saw the wound yourself, it's really nothing, it'll be fine in a few days." Su Fengnan looked at Zhang Wenhao, her tone firm. "Zhang Xinrui was also frightened tonight, Brother Zhang, why don't you take her home to rest as soon as possible?"

This is indeed the truth, and if we keep arguing about it, who knows how long it will drag on.

"Then wait for me a moment."

After Zhang Xinrui finished speaking, she turned and ran into the pharmacy next door. A little while later, she borrowed paper and pen, quickly wrote down a series of contact methods, and ran back to shove them into Su Fengnan's hand.

"Here's my phone number and QQ number. You have to add me when you get back! You're my friend now, so we should keep in touch." She paused, then added, "By the way, don't you have a cell phone? Tell me your number, I'll save it."

Su Fengnan looked at the neat handwriting on the paper, folded the note, put it in her bag, and then gave Zhang Xinrui her number. Zhang Xinrui immediately dialed the number, and after hearing the beeping sound, she hung up with satisfaction.

"Save it too."

"Okay. You guys go home now, I'm going back too."

"Wait a moment longer."

Where do you live?

The brother and sister spoke almost simultaneously. Zhang Xinrui immediately grabbed Zhang Wenhao's arm: "Brother, come here for a second."

She pulled Zhang Wenhao into the pharmacy. Su Fengnan wanted to leave directly, but felt it would be impolite, so she stood there and waited.

A moment later, the two came out, Zhang Wenhao carrying a bulging paper bag.

Zhang Xinrui placed the paper bag on the chair in the waiting area and introduced the items one by one as if presenting a treasure: "This is for replenishing blood, this is for brain and calcium supplementation, and this also helps boost immunity... Su Fengnan, these are things I bought for you, as a small token of my appreciation. Please accept them and don't be offended."

Looking at the bag full of health supplements, Su Fengnan sighed inwardly. This girl was sincere, but most of these supplements were just a scam. However, everyone cares about their image, so she naturally wouldn't show it.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need it. Now that you're safe, I'll be going."

"Where does Su live? I can give you a ride." Zhang Wenhao quickly offered.

"I don't live far away, it's nearby," Su Fengnan replied vaguely, not wanting to trouble them any further.

She turned to Zhang Xinrui, her tone gentle yet firm: "Zhang Xinrui, I really don't need these things. It's getting late, I have to go back now. You should go too, we'll contact each other again later."

After saying that, without waiting for their response, Su Fengnan waved her hand and said, "Bye-bye."

She turned and walked away quickly. Zhang Xinrui instinctively reached out to grab her, but couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.

Only after Su Fengnan's figure disappeared into the night did Zhang Wenhao regretfully turn his gaze away: "Never mind, let's hurry home. Since we have her contact information, we'll find some time to properly thank her later."
