Rebirth: Recovering My Treasure Girl

Chapter 279 Out of sight, out of mind

"No, you can go do some work beforehand. I can just go by myself." Ye Shiqi said.

Chen Yang smiled and said: "It's okay, monitor. I'm going to visit another bookstore anyway, so we just happen to be together."

Ye Shiqi thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay then."

After saying that, the two of them took their books and went to the cashier.

After paying the bill, the two walked out of Xinhua Bookstore side by side.

Chen Yang pointed to one end of the street and said: "Squad leader, there is a Wenquxing Bookstore 20 minutes away. Although it is smaller than Xinhua Bookstore, it has quite a lot of books, especially study materials. How about we go over and have a look?"

Ye Shiqi nodded and said, "Yes."

Then, the two of them walked forward.

After walking for a short while, Ye Shiqi suddenly asked: "By the way, it will be reported tomorrow. Zhou Lin should be back, right?"

Chen Yang said: "Maybe, but I don't know the details. I had very little contact with her during the Spring Festival."

Ye Shiqi asked: "Why? Didn't you talk on the phone?"

Chen Yang shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to talk on the phone, it's that her parents don't allow it..."

"Why?" Ye Shiqi asked again.

Chen Yang thought for a while, and then told the story of the last time he went to Tanzhou and accidentally bumped into Zhou Lin's father on the street.

"It turns out there is such a thing, no wonder." Ye Shiqi expressed understanding.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Shiqi said: "If I were Zhou Lin's parents, I wouldn't allow you two to have any contact."

Chen Yang smiled helplessly, shook his head and comforted himself: "It's okay. Anyway, I will report tomorrow and I can see you at school."

Ye Shiqi nodded slightly but said nothing.

Later, Ye Shiqi asked Chen Yang about his learning goals for the new semester and whether he wanted to achieve a higher ranking in the midterm exam.

Chen Yang told Ye Shiqi that his idea was to break into the top 10 in the class in the final exam this semester.

Seeing that Chen Yang had set a goal, Ye Shiqi was secretly happy and relieved for him, and at the same time she couldn't help but say some words of encouragement.

Just when Ye Shiqi was getting excited, Chen Yang's pager suddenly rang.

Chen Yang stopped and took out his pager and saw that it was Zhou Lin's home number.

Chen Yang was immediately overjoyed, and his expression couldn't help but become a little excited.

"Monitor, I'm going to call you back. It'll probably take a while. Why don't you go to the bookstore first and I'll come back to you later." Chen Yang said and started looking for a public phone nearby.

Ye Shiqi understood Chen Yang's appearance as soon as she saw it, and asked, "Is it Zhou Lin?"

Chen Yang nodded: "Yes."

While talking, Chen Yang had already seen a "public phone" sign hanging at the door of a small shop on the street.

The next moment, Chen Yang walked towards the small store, and Ye Shiqi followed him.

When Chen Yang found out, he turned around and said, "Squad leader, don't wait for me. I guess I won't be that fast."

Ye Shiqi shook her head and said, "It's okay. You fight slowly. I'm not in a hurry anyway."

At this time, Chen Yang was only thinking about returning Zhou Lin's call as soon as possible, so he stopped caring about Ye Shiqi.

After walking over to pick up the receiver, Chen Yang quickly dialed Zhou Lin's home number.

Ye Shiqi didn't follow too closely and waited quietly under a street tree on the side of the road.

As soon as the call tone finished ringing, the call was answered.

"Hello, Chen Yang?" A soft and pleasant female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's me." A smile instantly appeared on Chen Yang's face. He was very familiar with this voice. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhou Lin.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yang asked, "Is it inconvenient for you to answer my call now?"

Zhou Lin's voice immediately came from the receiver: "When you paged me earlier, my parents were both at home, so I couldn't answer your call."

"My parents were out just now, so I had time to answer your call, but no one answered my call to your house, so I paged you."

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Lin asked: "Chen Yang, are you taking to the streets?"

Zhou Lin had already heard the sound of cars and noise from Chen Yang's side.

Chen Yang said: "Yes, I went to Xinhua Bookstore."

"Why did you go to Xinhua Bookstore? Are you going to buy tutoring materials again?" Zhou Lin asked.

Chen Yang smiled and said: "No, I just want to find the phone numbers of several publishing houses so that I can inquire about the specific matters of submission."

Zhou Lin perked up when she heard this and asked, "So your novel has been finished, right?"

"Yes, and I have already printed it out and will bring it to school for you tomorrow. You should give me more opinions then." Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Hearing what you said, I can't wait. I really hope I can see it now." Zhou Lin is looking forward to it.

Chen Yang immediately said: "This is easy to handle! I will go home to get it now. You wait for me at home, I will be there soon!"

Zhou Lin was startled by Chen Yang's words and said quickly: "No, no, my parents will be back soon. If they meet me, I will be in trouble!"

When Chen Yang saw that Zhou Lin was serious, he couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha, I'm just teasing you. Don't be afraid if I don't get there."

Zhou Lin breathed a sigh of relief and laughed at the same time, and then she couldn't help but yell at Chen Yang.

At this time, Ye Shiqi, who was not far away, was observing Chen Yang. Seeing him smiling very happily, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

The next moment, Ye Shiqi became out of sight, out of mind, and simply turned away from Chen Yang.

At the same time, Zhou Lin on the phone suddenly asked: "By the way, Chen Yang, have you decided which publishing house to apply for?"

Chen Yang replied: "Not yet... By the way, Zhou Lin, there is something I want to ask..."

Just when Chen Yang wanted to ask Zhou Lin if her mother knew anyone from the publishing house, Zhou Lin suddenly interrupted him.

"Chen Yang, my parents are back, so I won't tell you anymore." Zhou Lin said.

Before Chen Yang could reply, the phone was already hung up.

Chen Yang listened to the busy tone of "Du, Du, Du" and shook his head helplessly.

Chen Yang put down the receiver and paid the phone bill, then turned around and looked for Ye Shiqi.

Ye Shiqi was standing under a street tree five or six meters away. The afternoon sun shone through the gaps in the street trees and fell on Ye Shiqi's body and cold face.

Her long hair fluttered gently in the wind, and a few strands of hair swayed slightly beside her cheeks, immediately adding a touch of softness to her cold and arrogant face.

Just as Chen Yang was about to walk over, two young men in their early twenties happened to pass by.

One of them immediately noticed Ye Shiqi, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He couldn't help but whistle at her, with a somewhat frivolous smile on his face.

After blowing the whistle, the man did not forget to call his companions to watch Ye Shiqi together.

The companions were also amazed when they saw Ye Shiqi, and the two of them immediately laughed and talked in low voices.

Of course Ye Shiqi heard the whistle and saw these two people smiling at her.

But she still remained cold and quiet, as if nothing had happened.

The two young men leaned together and whispered a few words, then suddenly changed direction and walked towards Ye Shiqi.

"Beauty, are you a college student?" the young man whistling asked.

Ye Shiqi is relatively tall among girls, and her dressing style is more mature than that of a high school student, so she can easily be mistaken for a college student.

Ye Shiqi didn't speak, just looked at the two of them for a moment, then turned away and ignored them.

"Beauty, don't be so aloof! We are both college students and would like to get to know you, okay?" the whistler asked again.

Ye Shiqi still didn't respond.

Upon seeing this, his companion pulled the whistler man and whispered: "Forget it, let's go."

The whistling man was reluctant and continued to stalk me: "Beauty, which school are you from?"

Ye Shiqi just showed an impatient expression and was about to speak when a voice came from behind the two young men: "Squad leader, let's go."

The two young men looked back and saw a boy who looked like a high school student.

Ye Shiqi heard the voice and looked over, and found that Chen Yang was looking at her with a smile.

Chen Yang ignored the two boys and said, "Squad leader, my dad's police station is nearby. He said he would be here in five minutes and asked us to wait for him here."

Before Ye Shiqi could speak, the whistler man's companion had already pulled the whistler man forward.

"Let's go quickly. Dad will be here soon. It will be terrible if he treats us as hooligans."

The Whistle Man was also worried about this happening, so he immediately followed his companion and walked away.

After the two of them walked away, a disdainful smile appeared on Chen Yang's face: "You are so timid, how dare you come out to strike up a conversation?"

Ye Shiqi said, somewhat dumbfounded: "Chen Yang, didn't you say your dad was a doctor last time? Why is he a policeman now? Isn't your dad's profession too fickle?"
