Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 823 - 822: Setting Him Up

Maybe it was because the two of them had been out for quite a while, so when Han Mingyue and Zhen Yu walked back into the private room, everyone looked at them with a particularly ambiguous expression. Liu Yu even bluntly insisted they had to drink as a penalty.

Han Mingyue quickly tried to dissuade them, "Come on, don’t make a fuss! Even if there has to be a penalty drink, it should be just me!"

But Liu Yu insisted on making a scene, wanting them to drink a linking-arms toast in front of everyone...

Zhen Yu’s eyes rolled slyly. Watching the increasingly enthusiastic Liu Yu, she suddenly decided to ’mess with him’ a bit.

So she said, "A linking-arms toast isn’t out of the question, but..."

"But what?" Liu Yu, not thinking much of it, fell right into Zhen Yu’s trap and immediately asked.

"But we can’t be the only ones drinking! There has to be a best man and maid of honor for a wedding, right? You’ll have to find someone to drink with us!"

Liu Yu felt something was amiss and rebutted, "That’s not right! This is a penalty drink! Why should others join?"

Zhen Yu smiled, "For a penalty drink, we would just drink directly! There’s no linking-arms tradition in penalty drinks."

"No! You two must drink with linked arms!" Liu Yu clearly wasn’t planning to let them off easily.

"Alright! Then find someone to drink with us!"

As Zhen Yu said this, she deliberately glanced at Sun Shuhan!

Liu Yu, shocked, immediately wanted to stop Zhen Yu, afraid she’d say something inappropriate.

"Zhen,"

But Zhen Yu quickly added, "Or you could just drink two glasses by yourself! I’ll pretend you’re drinking with yourself!"

"Whew..." Liu Yu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was almost scared to death by Zhen Yu just now...

——

"So, are you going to drink or not?"

Zhen Yu deliberately put Liu Yu in a tough spot for a moment, then let him off gently.

First, to let him know that if he didn’t drink, then Zhen Yu wouldn’t drink with linked arms either.

And second...

Liu Yu naturally understood, so after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, "Drink! I’ll join the two of you!"

As soon as he said this, Tian Mingyuan and Zheng Fan, who had been watching the interaction between Liu Yu and Zhen Yu, suddenly came to life and immediately started chanting, "Drink with linked arms! Drink with linked arms! Drink with linked arms..."

Han Mingyue looked at Zhen Yu worriedly, given her limited drinking capacity...

"Can you handle it? If not, I’ll drink both,"

But Zhen Yu declared, "I can handle it! Why can’t I?"

As she spoke, she suddenly stood on tiptoe!

Grabbing Han Mingyue’s arm, she tried to whisper in his ear, "I dug this hole myself, even if I have to kneel, I’ll push him in!"

"You, ha ha..." Han Mingyue was both angry and amused but still let her do as she pleased.

Luckily, she was only drinking beer, unlike him and Liu Yu, who were drinking spirits...

The next moment, amidst everyone’s uproar, Zhen Yu with a slightly flushed face linked arms with Han Mingyue and finished a cup of the linking-arms toast.

Then as soon as she sat down, she looked at the two cups of spirits in front of Liu Yu and smiled without saying a word.

Liu Yu, seeing her gaze, laughed heartily and straightforwardly picked up one of the cups!

And loudly said, "Rest assured! I’ll definitely drink! With this glass, I wish the two of you a long and happy marriage!"

Zhen Yu continued to smile, but still refused to speak.

At this moment, after Liu Yu finished the first glass, he was about to reach for the second glass.

But suddenly, Sun Shuhan tugged at his sleeve under the table, giving him a discreet side-eye!

Then... Zhen Yu received the words she had been expecting all along.

——

"Xiao Yu, you and Han Mingyue each drank one glass, just let Liu Yu join with one glass as well!"

"Heh... Alright then!" Zhen Yu laughed, "For Shuhan’s sake, you can skip the second glass, Liu Yu."

"Ah, okay! Then I won’t drink it..." Liu Yu finally realized, bursting into cheerful laughter!

Seeing this, Tian Mingyuan and Zheng Fan immediately and tacitly started teasing Liu Yu and Sun Shuhan.

"Oh... Seems like someone is feeling heartache..."

"Sigh! Long, cold nights with no one to cuddle up with!"

Sun Shuhan was already quite shy, and upon hearing these words, her face instantly turned beet red, so much so that it seemed like she would bleed!

She wanted nothing more than to dive under the table and never come out!

Liu Yu thought, this isn’t good!

How could he just stand by and watch others tease his future girlfriend?

After all, the meal was nearly over anyway, so why not... call it a night!

"Ah, so, has everyone had enough to eat? If so, why don’t we find a place to hang out?"

Shi Mei, being someone who loves to join the fun, perked up at this suggestion.

She quickly chimed in, "What should we do? I’m not just full, I’m overstuffed!"

The rest of the group also echoed, "Yeah! We’ve eaten enough too."

Liu Yu’s eyes darted around, and then he said, "It’s so cold, why don’t we hit the internet cafe?"

Upon hearing that, Shi Mei and You Qing exchanged a quick glance! Then the two of them simultaneously drew out the word, "Internet cafe..."

——

Zhen Yu thought that tonight she probably laughed the most since she reborn.

It wasn’t that she intended to laugh, but her two roommates were simply too whimsical!

Not only making playful faces at her, but also throwing winks her way!

Making her so overwhelmed that she had no choice but to say, "Alright then, let’s go to the internet cafe! I’ll cover the internet fees tonight!"

Han Mingyue immediately turned to look at Zhen Yu upon hearing her offer, sensing something.

Zhen Yu gave an imperceptible nod, then called out to everyone, "Is everyone decided? If so, shall we head out now?!"

Liu Yu was the first to stand up.

Grabbing the coat draped over the back of his chair, he put it on as he said, "Let’s go, let’s go! Hurry up! The night is young, and we can play a bit longer!"

"Mm." Sun Shuhan replied softly, but in agreement, as she too got up and started putting on her down jacket.

Only then did Han Mingyue lean in to Zhen Yu and whisper, "I’ll go settle the bill."

Then he grabbed his down jacket and walked out of the private room first.

The internet cafe wasn’t too far from here, but neither was it close. Yet after some discussion at the restaurant entrance, they still decided to walk there.

Originally, the girls were walking in one line and the boys in another.

But as they walked, the formation gradually began to change...

When Zhen Yu turned around at the internet cafe entrance, she realized two people were missing from the group!

"...You Qing!" Zhen Yu gestured for their dorm leader to look behind.

It’s embarrassing! What now? 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

You Qing and Shi Mei turned around at the same time and discovered that Sun Shuhan and Liu Yu were nowhere to be seen.

Then after exchanging a glance, they both shook their heads at Zhen Yu.
