Before her rebirth, Shen Xuewei was over thirty years old. After seven years of estrangement from her family and many years of hard work, she finally had her own small home.
After her rebirth...
Chapter 176 A Little Whiter
Of course, if Chen Fanglan had brought the same or even more people with her today, they might have gotten into a fight.
However, in reality, Chen Fanglan only brought Shen Xuewei with her today.
So, since she couldn't afford to offend them, she had no choice but to hide.
Although she appeared to be the same as before, the previous incident still affected Chen Fanglan's mood.
After skating a few laps with Shen Xuewei, the two left the skating rink and sat on a bench to change their shoes.
At that moment, the sound of a conflict came from the ice rink, and the two men looked up at the rink at the same time.
Those young men had a conflict with a group of teenagers.
The teenagers might not be as strong as the young men, but they outnumbered the young men by a factor of two, resulting in a close fight.
Xu Yue, who had seemed to have a good temper earlier, was now furious, her eyebrows almost standing on end.
Two teenagers and a young man were fighting. She went up and launched a sneak attack, grabbing the young man's head and pulling out a handful of his hair.
The scene was so chaotic that many people inside the skating rink ran out and stood outside the railings to watch.
The commotion was so loud that it attracted the attention of the skating rink staff, who rushed over to mediate.
Chen Fanglan pointed to the chaotic ice rink and said, "Weiwei, if you have so many friends around you in the future, don't be a coward."
"Remember what Auntie said, go up and kill them."
However, she didn't intend to let Shen Xuewei see such a violent scene any longer.
He covered Shen Xuewei's face, turned her head back, and led her outside.
"Let's go, stop looking. We've been skating for so long. Let's go get a milk tea with your aunt."
"Okay, Auntie, I want bubble tea and chicken wings too."
"Okay, when we get there we'll see if there's anything else, and order a lot more. When we get back, we won't cook, it's too much trouble."
The two arrived at the milk tea shop, ordered two cups of milk tea and some snacks, and then quietly began to eat.
The two of them had used up a lot of energy at the ice rink and were quite hungry.
After finishing her meal, Chen Fanglan touched her mouth and gave Shen Xuewei a wink.
Shen Xuewei skillfully took out a small pack of tissues from her bag and handed one to her.
She took one tissue, wiped her mouth, and put the rest of the pack back into her bag.
Then, he took out a small mirror and a lipstick from his bag and handed them to Chen Fanglan.
After wiping her mouth and touching up her lipstick in front of the mirror, Chen Fanglan smiled with satisfaction.
Two or three days passed quickly, and on the 28th, Shen Xuewei got up early.
Before Chen Fanglan got up, she had already packed her things.
Chen Fanglan also got up an hour earlier than usual, looking at the time displayed on the alarm clock and then at Shen Xuewei, who had already prepared everything.
She threw back the covers, stretched, and slowly got out of bed.
"I told you to come earlier, but I didn't tell you to come this early..."
Shen Xuewei packed her slippers into a bag. "It's better to pack everything up early so I don't rush later and forget something, which would be a hassle."
Chen Fanglan walked towards the toilet with her eyes half open. "Okay, just do whatever you think is best."
"Let me brush my teeth first, then I'll take you to the bus station."
After brushing her teeth and washing her face, she went to the bathroom and came out. During this time, Shen Xuewei had already gone downstairs to buy breakfast and returned.
After finishing her breakfast, Chen Fanglan looked at Shen Xuewei's bulging bag and suddenly remembered something. She went back to her room, rummaged through her drawer, and took out two bottles of children's sunscreen for Shen Xuewei.
"Take this back with you. Remember to apply it if the sun is strong."
She smiled, noticing that Shen Xuewei's face was slightly paler than when she first arrived.
"Look in the mirror. Isn't your face a little paler than when you first came here last month?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Xuewei went to look at herself in the mirror.
It seems... she has indeed become a little bit paler, she thought uncertainly.
These days, she applies sunscreen every time she goes out.
You might not notice it when you look at yourself every day, but once someone points it out, you realize that your skin has indeed become a bit whiter.
It seems this sunscreen is effective.
Her bag was already stuffed full and couldn't hold any more, so she put the two bottles of sunscreen in the bag containing her slippers.
Chen Fanglan changed her clothes and walked towards the bus station with Shen Xuewei.
Most buses at the passenger station depart every fifteen minutes.
Buses that go directly to Fuxing Village only depart every thirty minutes.
However, Shen Xuewei was very lucky. As soon as she arrived at the bus station, a minibus was about to depart for that destination.
She quickly boarded the bus with her things in her hands, found a private window seat, took out the mask she had specially bought from her bag, and put it on.
Chen Fanglan walked outside the car window and spoke to Shen Xuewei.
"Weiwei, remember to get off at Fuxing Village. Don't oversleep and miss your stop."
Shen Xuewei stuck her head out of the car window a little, nodded, and replied loudly, "Auntie, I know, I won't miss the end of the road."
As the car started moving, Chen Fanglan waved goodbye and watched it drive out of the bus station.
Once the car was out of her sight and could no longer be seen, the smile on her face slowly faded.
She slowly walked out of the bus station, hailed a motorcycle nearby, and was taken to the entrance of the beauty salon.
Shen Xuewei is going back to school, and she's also coming back to work.
After the ticket seller collected the fare, Shen Xuewei hugged her things tightly to her chest, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.
As the minibus drove along, people kept getting on and off, and the number of people on the bus gradually increased.
As the journey progressed, the bus, which had initially become quite crowded, gradually emptied out, eventually becoming so packed that not even all the seats were occupied.
After passing Mingda Town, Shen Xuewei seemed to sense something and woke up.
As she watched the familiar scenery flash by on the roadside, she leaned back up in her seat, her body initially slumped.
As they approached Fuxing Village, she mentally prepared herself for a moment, and after a few seconds, called out to the driver:
"Master, stop when we get to that big rock ahead."
The driver didn't say anything and continued driving until the car slowly came to a stop near the large rock.
Shen Xuewei had already packed her things. As soon as the car stopped and the door opened, she got out of the car with her things.
Some familiar villagers saw her and greeted her.
"Hey, isn't this Weiwei? Why are you getting off the car so early in the morning? Where have you been?"
Shen Xuewei smiled at her, "Good morning, Aunt Liu. I just came back from my aunt's place and stopped by to visit my second aunt."
"Oh, so you just got back from the city. Go on, your second aunt was talking about you to me the other day."
"Okay, Aunt Liu, I'm going to my second aunt's house now. I'll talk to you again next time."
After passing through the village, we soon arrived at the Chu family's residence.
