Rebirth Must Be Happy

Why is Lao Ding calling you?

In the Xie family's living room, Tao Menghua saw Xie Zhanpeng return from answering the phone and, while picking up a piece of apple that the aunt had just cut, asked, "Is it because of Wanqing?"

"Correct."

Xie Zhanpeng sat down on the sofa. Seeing Tao Menghua hand him a piece of apple, he waved it off, indicating he wasn't in the mood. He frowned and said, "I said I feel Ding Wenjie isn't a good match for Wanqing at all, and that she has better options, so I won't keep her from going..."

"What do you mean?"

Tao Menghua lost her appetite and quickly asked him, "Are they angry?"

"I don't think so."

Xie Zhanpeng hadn't fully processed the subtle words Ding's father had spoken on the phone, and after a moment's thought, he asked, "Do you still remember that Xu Jinhuan?"

"remember."

Tao Menghua was even more puzzled, "Why bring him up?"

Xie Zhanpeng asked, "Do you remember, Xiaoqiang said before that Xu Jinhuan made some money making games..."

"It's just a few thousand yuan a month."

Tao Menghua said dismissively, "He does have a conscience, though. Wanqing lent him her computer before, and he still knows to help her this time. But what can you do with 1500 yuan a month? He's about to take the college entrance exam, and he's not doing anything productive... But I heard from Xiaoqiang that this kid's grades are pretty good..."

As she was rambling on, Xie Zhanpeng suddenly interrupted, "Old Ding just said that this Xu Jinhuan drives an S500L."

"..."

Tao Menghua froze, thinking she had misheard. "Xu Jinhuan opened... what?"

“S500,”

Xie Zhanpeng also found it unbelievable, "I thought I misheard, but it seems that Ding Wenjie saw it with his own eyes, and it even had a Beijing license plate..."

"impossible?"

Tao Menghua said incredulously, "How could he afford a car like that?"

Xie Zhanpeng drives a Mercedes-Benz E-Class; he doesn't even dare to dream of an S300, let alone a 500, which starts at two million.

"I'll go ask Xiaoqiang."

Xie Zhanpeng thought for a moment, then got up and went to Xie Zhiqiang's room, with Tao Menghua following him.

Xie Zhiqiang was sitting in front of the computer when his parents suddenly pushed the door open and entered. Startled, he quickly pressed a few keys on the keyboard and clicked the mouse randomly, asking, "What do you want?"

The school is relatively humane. It's summer vacation now, and they've given us a two-day weekend, but that won't be possible after this. He wanted to play a few more games today, but Tao Tao didn't log on at all.

Xie Zhiqiang found it boring to stay in the internet cafe, so he went home for dinner. However, after dinner, he couldn't resist logging back into the game on his home computer, hoping that "Tao Tao" would come online.

Just as I was getting bored and looking for something interesting to watch, my parents barged in.

"I remember you and Xu Jinhuan were deskmates, right?"

Xie Zhanpeng called his son out and returned to the living room. Only then did he leisurely ask, as if having a casual chat, "Are you two very familiar with each other?"

"He transferred to another class."

Xie Zhiqiang wondered if his parents had taken the wrong medicine, as they had suddenly started showing concern for Xu Jinhuan. However, he still replied, "We're not in the same class anymore."

Tao Menghua asked, "So you two are still in contact, right?"

"Have."

Xie Zhiqiang nodded, took a piece of apple to eat, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Xie Zhanpeng asked, "You said before that Xu Jinhuan made a game?"

Seeing that he was being reluctant to speak, Tao Menghua simply asked, "Do you know how much money he made from that game?"

"I know."

Xie Zhiqiang didn't really want to bring this up because it made him feel like a good-for-nothing, but since his parents asked, he didn't hide it. He put on an attitude that he didn't care at all and continued to eat his apple, saying, "It's about eight thousand a day now."

"How many?"

Tao Menghua thought she hadn't heard clearly, "One day?"

"correct."

Xie Zhiqiang nodded, "The advertising fee is over eight thousand a day..."

"More than eight thousand a day?"

Xie Zhanpeng and Tao Menghua were both shocked and incredulous. Tao Menghua asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Xie Zhiqiang's tone became a little impatient, "Isn't my sister his assistant? My sister can see the game data on her phone. Last month, the advertising fee was 20 yuan, and it's still increasing every day."

"..."

Eight thousand a day, two hundred and fifty thousand a month, that's three million a year!

This is net income, not the revenue from running a company or factory!
Not to mention compared to Xie Zhanpeng, even compared to Ding's father, he is no less than him.

Xie Zhanpeng and Tao Menghua exchanged a glance, speechless, but their expressions showed a mixture of shock and delight.

Suppressing his excitement, Xie Zhanpeng asked again, "Xu Jinhuan bought a Mercedes-Benz S500L?" "He didn't buy it."

Xie Zhiqiang shook his head and said, "The car belongs to Chen Xingzhu, the girl who shares an apartment with my sister."

Although he suspected that Xu Jinhuan had ulterior motives towards his sister, he didn't want his parents to cause trouble for Xu Jinhuan, so he deliberately added, "She's Xu Jinhuan's girlfriend. Her dad gave her the car, but she can't drive, so Xu Jinhuan drives her to school."

"..."

Xie Zhanpeng and Tao Menghua fell silent.

The couple were secretly pleased that their daughter had good taste, but they never expected to hear this news from their son.

"Xu Jinhuan's girlfriend?"

Tao Menghua still wouldn't give up, "What does her family do? Have she and Xu Jinhuan already established a relationship?"

"They're not officially dating yet, but it's pretty much a done deal. Almost everyone in the school knows that Xu Jinhuan transferred classes because of her."

Xie Zhiqiang told him basically everything he knew, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Why are you asking about this?"

Xie Zhanpeng and Tao Menghua exchanged a glance. Tao Menghua coughed and said cautiously, "It seems to me... that Xu Jinhuan and your sister have a pretty good relationship?"

"That's because I..."

Xie Zhiqiang was still trying to cover for Xu Jinhuan when he suddenly realized what was going on and stared at his parents, asking, "What do you mean?"

Xie Zhanpeng took out his phone and showed his son the photo Xie Wanqing had sent him, sighing, "Your mother and I were too hasty in this matter and didn't see Ding Wenjie's true colors... Sigh!"

He sighed again, looking somewhat remorseful. "I just explained things to Ding Wenjie's parents, and Ding Wenjie promised that he won't bother Wanqing anymore."

"Can I go home now, sister?"

Xie Zhiqiang was initially angry when he saw the photo, but after hearing what his father said, he was immediately overjoyed. "Does my sister know?"

Xie Zhanpeng said, "I haven't had a chance to tell her yet."

"Your sister doesn't need to rush home either,"

Tao Menghua said, "She's preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, so it's better for her to stay there and study properly... We can visit her often and invite her back for a meal or something, isn't that enough?"

"..."

Xie Zhiqiang had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he was slow-witted and it took him a while to become alert: "You guys don't think that because Xu Jinhuan is making money, you want my sister to be with Xu Jinhuan, do you?"

"What do you mean by that?"

Xie Zhanpeng put on a stern face and said, "Are we that kind of people? It's not like your parents are selling their daughter..."

"But then again, Xu Jinhuan is actually a pretty good person."

Tao Menghua recalled, "I hadn't paid much attention before, but he was quite tall and handsome. Although he was two years younger than your sister, there's nothing wrong with a relationship between an older woman and a younger man..."

"In the end, isn't it all about seeing how much money Xu Jinhuan can make?"

Xie Zhiqiang was worried that his parents would cause trouble for Xu Jinhuan, so he deliberately didn't dare to mention the matter between Xu Jinhuan and his sister. He never expected that his parents would want his sister to be with Xu Jinhuan.

He was both shocked and angry, but then he calmed down and said, "Xu Jinhuan and Chen Xingzhu are already together, so you shouldn't even think about it."

"Didn't you just say you weren't really together?"

Tao Menghua retorted, "Even married couples can get divorced, let alone those who aren't even in a relationship! With your looks and figure, what guy wouldn't like you?"

"I don't want to talk to you about it anymore."

Xie Zhiqiang was furious and got up to leave, but Tao Menghua shouted, "Stop!"

Xie Zhiqiang turned to look at his parents.

Tao Menghua and Xie Zhanpeng exchanged a glance. Tao Menghua said, "Your sister has been away from home for so many days, and you don't even care about her?"

She stood up and said, "Don't you know where your sister lives? Come along and go see your sister..."

"I dont go."

Xie Zhiqiang stood still. "You said you were going to see my sister, how am I supposed to know if you were just passing by Xu Jinhuan's house?"

After saying that, he added in his mind, 'And maybe my sister is at Xu Jinhuan's house...'

"Let's go, let's go, your mom has been talking about your sister for days."

Xie Zhanpeng also got up to urge him, but seeing that Xie Zhiqiang still didn't move, he said, "Haven't you always wanted to get a new computer?"

"I'm not going to get a new computer!"

Xie Zhiqiang was very tough and unyielding, "If I go, you'll definitely try to persuade my sister to be with Xu Jinhuan..."

Xie Zhanpeng said, "I'll change it for you tomorrow!"

"me……"

Xie Zhiqiang stammered for a moment, then said, "I want the high-end configuration!"

As he followed his parents out the door, he thought to himself, 'Anyway, with Chen Xingzhu around, even if my parents want Xu Jinhuan to become my brother-in-law, it's impossible...'

...Right? (End of Chapter)
