Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1043: Chapter 612: Intentions (Part 2)

Luo Ye sighed lightly and came to Bai Qingchu’s bedside, patting her comfortingly: "Tomorrow, I’ll take leave to visit Senior Brother Qi. Give me the address."

"Luoluo, thank you for your kindness, but right now, even if you see my cousin, you wouldn’t recognize him. He doesn’t want people who know him to see him like this, especially... you."

Luo Ye was momentarily stunned and quietly returned to the bedside. Xing Nong hesitated: "Qingchu, does... Senior Brother Qi like Luoluo?"

"Yes, from the first time he met Luoluo, my cousin liked her. But he understands, given his situation, there’s no way he could have a relationship with Luoluo. So, he kept these feelings buried in his heart.

Until last time when I visited him, maybe out of regret, he told me about it. Actually, I’ve always wanted to tell Luoluo, but I was worried she might overthink it."

"I..." Luo Ye paused, "I should go see him."

"Thank you, Luoluo." Bai Qingchu promptly wrote down the address and handed it to Luo Ye, "My cousin, despite his age, has never been in love. You are the first girl he likes, and I think, subconsciously, he wants to see you."

Luo Ye took the note, staring blankly at the bright, cold moonlight outside the window. Her understanding of life and death might differ from others, but no matter what, the thought of such a young life nearing its end made her extremely uncomfortable.

The others were either lying down or sitting, unable to sleep, until the sky showed a faint white. The urgent assembly whistle didn’t sound, and Xing Nong stretched: "Who spread the false rumor? What a way to toy with people."

Yu Na yawned: "Li Xiaobei overheard Coach Bai chatting with a teacher on the way, saying there’d be an emergency assembly tonight, so she came over specially to report it."

"Why do I feel like it was deliberate?" Yaoguang frowned, "Is this Coach Bai really that bored?"

...

After morning exercises, in the office of Team Five.

Feng Tianzhi and Bai Yan were sorting materials when Luo Ye knocked and came in, saluting: "Captain, Instructor, I have to go out for a bit."

"Alright."

"Why do you have so many errands?"

Feng Tianzhi and Bai Yan spoke almost simultaneously.

"I’m going to see Senior Brother Qi Ziheng..." Luo Ye paused, her eyes reddening, "Last night, Bai Qingchu said Senior Brother Qi might... not make it."

Feng Tianzhi stood up: "I’ll go with you."

Luo Ye shook her head: "No need, I’ll go alone."

Considering Qi Ziheng’s feelings, none of them followed, including Xing Nong and Yaoguang, all asking her to convey their regards. Everyone did this so Qi Ziheng wouldn’t keep his words bottled up inside. If Feng Tianzhi went too, Qi Ziheng wouldn’t be able to say anything?

"He was once a member of GF University, so it’s only right for me to visit." Feng Tianzhi insisted.

"I’ll go too." Bai Yan also stood up, aware of Qi Ziheng’s situation, even if she dislikes Luo Ye, she couldn’t nitpick at this matter.

"Let’s go." Feng Tianzhi led the way outside.

At this point, Luo Ye couldn’t refuse anymore, hesitated a moment, turned and followed out, planning to find an opportunity to speak alone later. If she declined further, she’d seem suspicious.

...

On the road, Feng Tianzhi glanced at Luo Ye: "You don’t seem too well-rested, didn’t sleep last night?"

"No." Luo Ye shook her head, her eyes intentionally scanned Bai Yan, and sure enough, a faint smile was on her lips.

Now, she could confirm the emergency assembly rumor was deliberately spread by Bai Yan, but she couldn’t understand the point of keeping them up all night—isn’t it pointless?

Feng Tianzhi stopped the car: "Take a rest on the back seat, I’ll call you when we arrive."

"No need, I can’t sleep."

"Alright." Feng Tianzhi hesitated a moment, looking at Bai Yan, "Coach Bai, cancel tonight’s march, we’ll reschedule it next week."

Bai Yan stiffened her voice: "Just because Luo Ye didn’t rest well? Captain Feng, aren’t you being too frivolous?"

Luo Ye’s lips curled, understanding now that the false rumor was intended for this purpose. Ah, it seems money indeed corrupts one’s nature.

If Grandma didn’t get part of the Bai family’s wealth, how could Bai Yan become like this?

"Isn’t the reaction a bit over the top?" Feng Tianzhi glanced at Bai Yan through the rearview mirror, "When you proposed this plan, I didn’t oppose it, thinking your intentions were good. Now, why does it feel off?"

Bai Yan straightened her neck: "What’s off? I just dislike leaders being partial, especially in a military school."

Luo Ye looked mildly at Bai Yan: "Coach Bai, what do you dislike most about me?"

"You’re misunderstanding, why would I dislike you?" Bai Yan sized her up, "After all, we’re relatives, shouldn’t I have higher expectations for you?"

"It’s fine, just feel your actions are sometimes juvenile. Purposely spreading false news last night was to make us sleep poorly for a surprise attack today, wasn’t it?" Luo Ye chuckled lightly, "Actually, I should thank you, if not for spreading that rumor, we wouldn’t know Senior Brother Qi is hospitalized."

"You spread false news?" Feng Tianzhi frowned, "Coach Bai, as school management, is this really appropriate?"

"What’s inappropriate?" Bai Yan leaned back, provocatively staring at Feng Tianzhi, "Truly capable cadets wouldn’t care about such news. Testing cadet’s mental resilience this way, don’t you think it’s very effective?"
