Rebirth: Growing Up Together

"???"

Xu Cheng was so scared that his soul flew away.

"Don't talk nonsense, Lin Wanzhou. I, I, I don't have that kind of thought..."

The girl glanced at her key parts and blushed as she spat.

"Rogue."

"But didn't you refuse just now?"

"I just don't have the strength!"

The two were silent for a while, and then tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again.

After all, if you really look into it carefully, neither of their thoughts just now were so pure.

The car slowly stopped in the hotel parking lot.

The two got off the car together.

At this time, a red banner had been posted at the entrance of the hotel, with the words "Congratulations to Lin Wanzhou" written on it.

Before entering the hotel, many people who had just arrived had already greeted Lin Wanzhou.

"Zhou Zhou, you were very smart when you were little. You always ranked first or second in the class. As expected, you did very well in the college entrance examination. Please come home in a few days to tell your sister Sasha about your thoughts and experiences."

There are many similar requests, and some people even want Lin Wanzhou’s study notes.

This made the girl feel a little overwhelmed.

She thought that if she agreed, she would have no personal time at all this summer, so she might as well open a cram school.

"Aunt, I'm busy recently. Let's wait for a chance later."

"No, your sister is already in the first grade of junior high school. I heard that the second grade will be the critical period..."

Xu Cheng interrupted and spoke politely.

"Aunt, how about you let me help you with your guidance? I'm doing OK in my studies, and my college entrance exam score is the same as Zhou Zhou's."

The aunt looked at Xu Cheng for a long time, but she didn't know who the person who called her aunt was.

However, Lin Wanzhou on the side immediately became anxious.

She had often heard Guo Zining talk about the romance novels and TV shows she had read, in which there were stories about women falling in love with male tutors.

Just thinking about it seems taboo. A mature boy and a young girl staying in the same room for a long time. Who can guarantee that there won't be any fishy goings-on between the two of them?

“No, no.”

The girl hurriedly pushed away Xu Cheng, who was trying to impress her relatives, and said, "Let me help, aunt!"

Her tone was full of determination.

The aunt was moved by her words and kept praising Lin Wanzhou for being sensible. She smiled so hard that the corners of her mouth almost reached her ears.

After his aunt left, Xu Cheng asked Lin Wanzhou curiously.

"Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"Let me give you some advice on what happened to my relatives."

Xu Cheng looked at her strangely, "Are you afraid that I'm with your cousin and you're jealous?"

"Who, who is jealous!"

The girl said stubbornly, "I was afraid that you, a hooligan, would do something bad to my cousin. Just now, you even tried to rape me in the car..."

"Shhhhhhh."

Xu Cheng quickly covered the girl's mouth, "You can't say that word casually, Lin Wanzhou, what kind of weird thoughts are in your head? Am I that kind of person?"

When he let go of her hand, Lin Wanzhou spat twice.

"Your hands are so salty!"

"..."

"How dare you call me weird! Well, if one of my dad's friends wants me to tutor the boy in his family, will you let me go?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Humph, why are you still blaming me? I think you have all these weird ideas in your head."

"..."

After she said that, Xu Cheng found that it was true.

The two people are equally good, and neither can be accused of double standards.

The banquet hall was full of people.

Xu Cheng looked around and saw his father and mother at a glance.

He Ying and Gao Manman work in the same unit. Many of her colleagues were present, sitting at a table and talking happily.

As for Xu Jianghe, as soon as he entered the door, he was surrounded by a bunch of acquaintances of Lin Wanzhou's father's business. Everyone rolled up their shirt sleeves and tried hard to say a few words to this business star.

At this time, Lin Qingyuan felt that it would be a good thing to have a closer relationship with Xu Jianghe.

He helped with the introductions with a smile on his face, especially when introducing his company's new investor "Mr. Chen", his tone towards the financier became noticeably more enthusiastic.

"Mr. Chen" politely toasted Xu Jianghe with a glass, and made eye contact with Xu Cheng across the crowd, but they soon separated.

"Let's go sit at the table where our seniors are sitting." Lin Wanzhou suggested.

Xu Cheng naturally had no objection. The child should of course sit at the children's table.

"Today's protagonist is here."

Pei Xueqi brought a few girls to join in the fun. After a while, everyone raised their glasses and clinked juice.

"Congratulations, Zhou Zhou. If I could go to a school as good as yours, my mom would be so happy."

"Hee, thank you, senior."

Pei Xueqi leaned closer to Lin Wanzhou's ear again.

"I heard that Xu Cheng is in the same school as you. Wouldn't it be much more convenient when you two go to school?"

The girl's face suddenly turned red.

"S-Stop talking nonsense. I won't make things convenient for him."

After a while of commotion, Lin Qingyuan wanted to pull Lin Wanzhou to go around each table, say thank you, and toast everyone.

Of course, Lin Wanzhou doesn’t drink alcohol, so he drinks juice instead.

The girl felt that this scene was a bit tense, so she pulled Xu Cheng to toast with her, and Xu Cheng agreed without thinking.

In fact, even if Lin Wanzhou didn't mention it, he would have taken the initiative to follow...

Father Lin invited a lot of people, and there were several tables of relatives alone.

Xu Cheng followed Lin Wanzhou and toasted at each table. Suddenly, he had the illusion that the two were getting married.

"Lin Wanzhou, do you feel like we are the bride and groom toasting the guests?" While Lin Wanzhou's parents were not paying attention, Xu Cheng whispered in the girl's ear.

Lin Wanzhou blushed and secretly stepped on him.

"Like your head!"

As the table that Lin Qingyuan cares about the most, the table where "Mr. Chen" is sitting is naturally indispensable.

After entering the box, Lin Qingyuan enthusiastically introduced everyone to Lin Wanzhou one by one.

In particular, Mr. Chen was introduced in detail.

"Zhou Zhou, this is Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen has helped Dad a lot."

"Uncle Chen."

After hearing his father's introduction, Lin Wanzhou politely greeted Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen also stood up at this time.

"I've heard that the daughter of the old Lin family is a good student. Congratulations on your success in the imperial examination today, Wan Zhou."

After a glass of wine, Father Lin was about to leave with Lin Wanzhou with a smile, but was suddenly stopped by Mr. Chen.

"Lao Lin, don't leave yet."

Father Lin was puzzled, "What's wrong, Mr. Chen, is there any dish that doesn't suit your taste today?"

"no no."

Mr. Chen waved his hand, "Lao Lin, your daughter is such a good student, shouldn't you drink a little more today? Come, I'll pour you three cups, and you drink them all."

"Uh...this..."

Father Lin looked at his wife and was suddenly in a dilemma.

Gao Manman came out to smooth things over.

"Mr. Chen, our old Lin is not in good health, so he won't drink much today."

At this time, Mr. Chen's face flashed with displeasure, "Oh, Mr. Lin doesn't give me this face."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

It was only then that the people around realized that something was wrong. Mr. Chen's tone sounded like he was going to cause trouble.

Lin Qingyuan hesitated for a few seconds, waved to Gao Manman, and said to Mr. Chen with a smile.

"It's okay, it's just three cups, I'll drink it."

He was about to reach out for the wine glass, but his hand was blocked by Mr. Chen.

He said to Gao Manman with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, look, Lao Lin can drink, right?"

He then turned his gaze to Lin Qingyuan.

"Lao Lin, if you can drink, let us all see how much you can drink today."

Under the gaze of everyone at the table, Mr. Chen picked up a whole bottle of Moutai at his feet, unscrewed it and handed it to Lin Qingyuan.

"If we continue to cooperate."

"Then drink the whole bottle for me in front of everyone today..."

Chapter 344: The Youth's Trick

The lobby outside the private room was still noisy.

The private room was already unusually quiet.

"Mr. Chen" stood in front of the table, holding a bottle of wine and confronting Lin Wanzhou's father.

His words of drinking the whole bottle made the atmosphere in the room tense.

"Hahaha, what are you doing?"

Lin Qingyuan's business friend stood up and tried to smooth things over. "Mr. Chen, please stop joking and scaring Old Lin. The child is still here. Old Lin and I will accompany you for a drink some other day. Is that okay with you?"

"Mr. Chen" shook his head without giving any face.

"Lao Lin, I heard that you can drink with other people, why can't you drink with me?"

Lin Wanzhou was already very angry at this time, like a cat with its fur standing on end. She wanted to say something but was stopped by Xu Cheng behind her.

"Shhh."

"???"

Under her puzzled gaze, Xu Cheng moved forward from the crowd, stood in front of her, and quietly pulled her little hand.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

"Well……"

Lin Wanzhou glanced at his tall and broad back and said nothing more, but just held his big hand tightly with her small hand and did not let go.
