Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl
Chapter 316 - 315: Five Boys

Chapter 316: Chapter 315: Five Boys

Sunday morning, as agreed, the Han Family Brothers arrived early at the Zhen Family’s house.

Zhen Yu had insomnia last night, and felt a headache when her mother woke her up this morning.

Despite that, she still had to go to the Children’s Palace for the semi-finals today, so she reluctantly stuffed down some breakfast and left with her brother to catch the bus.

Even though it was early on a Sunday, the bus was still crowded.

After boarding the bus, the three boys surrounded her in the middle, trying to minimize her contact with strangers.

The Children’s Palace was quite far from the Zhen Family’s home, requiring over half an hour by bus.

The bus had only been going for about ten minutes when, whether due to poor ventilation or motion sickness, Zhen Yu suddenly felt nauseous.

She tried to suppress the feeling, but still didn’t feel well.

She had no choice but to tug at her older brother in front of her, "Brother! Get off at the next stop! Urgh, I feel like vomiting!"

"What’s wrong, little sister?" Zhen Yan immediately turned around, and Han Mingyue also looked at her anxiously.

Zhen Yu indeed looked quite pale, and Zhen Yan signaled the Han Family Brothers and prepared to get off the bus!

He led the way, Han Mingyue protected Zhen Yu, and Han Jiayang brought up the rear as they all struggled to move toward the rear door.

The bus was extremely crowded, and the people who had managed to find a spot to stand were unwilling to move.

Zhen Yan, using his height and strength, forcefully pushed his way through! The people he pushed were cursing, and even one middle-aged man raised his hand as if to push him back.

Zhen Yan quickly grabbed the man’s wrist and shoved him backward. The man stumbled into the people behind him and instantly backed off.

Seeing Zhen Yu holding her mouth and Zhen Yan only managing to push a few steps forward, Han Mingyue knitted his brows.

He decisively let go of the handrail with his left hand and pulled Zhen Yu into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Hold on a bit longer."

Then he suddenly shouted loudly, "Ah! You vomited on me!"

The cursing in the bus abruptly stopped! The passengers next to them immediately retreated as far as possible, clearly afraid of getting dirty.

Taking advantage of the passengers’ distraction, Han Mingyue tightened his grip on Zhen Yu and, pushing Zhen Yan, they rushed toward the rear door!

Han Jiayang immediately followed his brother’s lead, vigorously pushing from behind to help.

Zhen Yan, thinking his sister had indeed vomited, pushed forward non-stop, and the crowd parted to avoid them!

—

The bus wasn’t very long, and when the four of them reached the rear door, the crowd closed back up like wheat blown by the wind.

Zhen Yan turned sideways to edge backwards, making space at the door, also trying to give his sister a bit more room to stand.

As soon as the bus reached the next stop, Zhen Yu raced off, running to a roadside trash bin, and holding her chest, she began to vomit!

While vomiting, she still thanked the design of the trash bins in this era. Fortunately, it wasn’t the kind where you throw things in from the side; otherwise, she would truly feel sorry for the sanitation workers...

Han Mingyue and Zhen Yan both stood by Zhen Yu’s sides, looking at her worriedly.

It was then that Zhen Yan realized that Han Mingyue’s clothes were completely clean! He then understood that it was a trick played on the bus earlier.

Han Jiayang had already been sent by his brother to a nearby shop to buy water for Zhen Yu.

"You can still go to the competition like this? How about you just take a taxi home! And then give your teacher a call!" Zhen Yan said impulsively.

After vomiting up her barely-eaten breakfast, Zhen Yu felt much better.

She took the water Han Mingyue handed her, rinsed her mouth a few times, and spat on the roadside grass, then wiped her mouth with the back of her hand.

"There’s nothing wrong with me now," Zhen Yu swallowed her saliva, "Let’s take a taxi directly to the Children’s Palace!"

"Are you sure?" Han Mingyue couldn’t help but ask, "If you ride again, do you think you’ll feel like vomiting?"

Zhen Yu flashed him a smile, "No worries! Taking a taxi is fast, we’ll arrive soon!"

"...Alright then." Seeing Zhen Yu was determined, Han Mingyue gave up persuading and turned to flag down a cab at the roadside.

——

By the time they got out at the Children’s Palace, Zhen Yu hadn’t thrown up again.

However, she looked completely wilted, leaning on Han Mingyue’s shoulder the moment she stepped out of the car, seeming frail and powerless.

Han Mingyue stood firmly and let her lean on him, daring not to move an inch!

In front of Zhen Yan, he perfectly portrayed the posture of a utility pole.

Right after Zhen Yan paid the taxi fare, he hurried over to support his sister. "Little sister, how are you feeling? Should I help you inside to sit for a bit?"

"Okay." Zhen Yu barely agreed when she shrugged off her brother’s hand, pressed on her stomach, and bent over, "Wait a moment! Let me squat for a bit."

"Stomach ache?" Han Mingyue squatted down alongside her and asked softly.

"No, just a bit of acid reflux." Zhen Yu shook her head, "Might really be motion sickness."

"You didn’t eat much in the morning and then stood for such a long time! Next time something like this happens, just take a cab directly!"

"Okay! I got it." Zhen Yu felt a wave of stomach acid pass and attempted to stand up, but Han Mingyue quickly helped her.

——

"Zhen Yan! Zhen Yu! Over here, over here!"

As soon as they entered the competition-specific hall, they heard someone calling the siblings from afar.

The four of them turned their heads together.

Zhen Yan, recognizing who it was, turned his feet and walked towards them with a smile.

The other three had no choice but to follow.

Zhen Yan first had Zhen Yu sit down, then greeted the two opposite, "Third! Junior Brother Lu! How long have you both been here?"

"What’s up with Zhen Yu?"

"Why, what happened to Zhen Yu?"

Although Cao Zhixin and Lu Huai said it differently, their concern was the same.

Zhen Yu didn’t want to engage with either of them and silently covered her mouth, suffering on her own.

Zhen Yan, however, fumed internally: "I’m talking to you guys, and none of you answer! But all care about why my sister is unwell! You think I’m just decoration?"

At that moment, Zhen Yu was the only one sitting in the middle, with five boys standing around her, forming a semi-circle.

Zhen Yan and the two brothers looked at each other, no one spoke further.

Han Jiaoyang stood aside, enjoying the drama, watching Zhen Yan and the other guys silently clash with their glances!

Han Mingyue’s attention remained on Zhen Yu, seeing her still in discomfort bending down; he couldn’t help but whisper, "Is it because your stomach is too empty? Should I have Jiaoyang go buy something for you to eat?"

The melon-eating Han Jiaoyang: "..."

Why! Why is it always me! She’s your girlfriend! Not mine...

"No need, I don’t want to eat right now." After refusing, Zhen Yu tugged at him without lifting her head, "Why are you standing there stupidly! Sit down fast!"

Almost the moment Han Mingyue sat down, Cao Zhixin suddenly stepped forward, intending to sit on the other side of Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yan, being extremely close to his sister, almost instinctively plopped down beside Zhen Yu first!

He muttered internally: "Making me look bad! Daring to fancy my sister right in front of me! Keep dreaming!"
