Rebirth in 2011: Starting as an Advertising Genius

The wind keeps its promise, the flowers never fail, year after year they never disappoint, the setting sun and the evening breeze, morning and evening.

Chen Jianghe, 18 years old

I thought that as long as you give your heart, you're bound to find your soulmate in this world.

Later, he learned that fate is something that can only happen when there is a beginning.

------------

When they first entered university, for various reasons, many college students hadn't made any new friends yet and generally maintained close contact with their high school classmates.

Furthermore, students from the same high school or county in college tend to maintain closer contact. This situation usually lasts for 2-3 months, and as everyone makes new friends, the contact gradually decreases.

"Jiang He, let's get together tonight. Chen Wanting just said she's going too, you two can come together!"

Chen Jianghe was in his dormitory, replaying the events of the day in his mind, when suddenly he started coughing.

Upon clicking, I found a user named Xia Nan.

He searched his memory,

Oh, we were high school classmates, and then we both got into the same university.

However, they have basically lost contact since the end of the first semester of their freshman year.

Who else did he just mention?

Chan Yuen-ting?

Damn memories flooded back again. If I remember correctly, this person seemed to have a very unusual relationship with me!

Or rather, theoretically, shouldn't she be considered his girlfriend?

Why in theory?

It's highly likely that she'll bring a senior from her school to the party tonight, and then officially announce that he's her boyfriend.

Back in high school, Chen Jianghe had a crush on her.

At that time, Chen Wanting sat in front of him. Every day, she would have a bag of fresh milk in her drawer. When it was hot in the summer, Chen Jianghe would fan her with a book from the back seat.

【Huh! Was I such a simp back then?】

As luck would have it, the two got into the same university (a vocational college). Perhaps out of guilt, or perhaps wanting to experience the feeling of being in love after being free from constraints, they have been eating and walking together since the start of the semester, although they haven't officially become boyfriend and girlfriend. However, they have been doing so together for a while, but recently it has become less frequent. Chen Wanting explained that she signed up for the Student Union and has to participate in various activities, so she doesn't have enough time.

The full name of the Student Union is the Federation of Student Societies, which is similar to the Student Council.

No wonder!

Once you join the student union or other student associations, you can immediately meet many people, including upperclassmen, which would put Chen Jianghe at a complete disadvantage.

He didn't really want to attend this party.

But then I realized that I hadn't seen these high school friends for a long time. We had drifted apart for various reasons, and I had even lost contact with some of them. But there were others with whom I still had a pretty good relationship.

"Okay, I'll be there!"

As for Chan Yuen-ting? He had no interest in contacting her.

-----------

6pm.

They also chose Pengcheng Restaurant, located behind the Suzhou Crafts Institute, for their gatherings, serving hometown cuisine.

What can a group of freshmen talk about?

It's nothing more than the latest things happening at school, like which clubs I've joined, the student council, and what games I'm playing lately.

Looking at these young faces, Chen Jianghe felt a pang of sadness.

He hadn't seen most of the people there for over a decade, and among them, only Tian Ke maintained a good relationship with him, and the two would often get together.

Looking at his friend who is now so young,

Some memories flooded his mind.

Tian Ke's family runs a clothing business, and this year a large batch of their goods went unsold, leading to their bankruptcy. It took them a long time to pay off their debts.

Even so, when Chen Jianghe needed money one year, Tian Ke still borrowed 100,000 yuan from online lending platforms for him without hesitation.

Given this friendship, and since there was an opportunity to avoid it in advance, Chen Jianghe didn't intend to let Tian Ke's family go bankrupt again.

"Ke'er, how are the sales at your family's clothing store lately?"

"what?"

Tian Ke was talking about a pretty girl he met after joining the badminton club when Chen Jianghe suddenly asked a question.

"I don't know about the family business, but it should be alright. My mom even gave me an extra 2000 yuan for living expenses this month!"

Okay, fine!

Chen Jianghe could understand; he was just a student, and it was perfectly normal for him not to know about his family's business.

"Then ask your aunt and uncle. I saw the news the other day that the clothing industry is struggling this year, with many companies going bankrupt. We have some GG marketing assignments in class, and I can help them create a promotional plan!"

Ok?

Tian Ke was a little confused!

He was just bragging when he said that the girl in the badminton club was really hot.

But how come you're so professional all of a sudden?

"Okay, I'll ask later!"

Chen Jianghe didn't care about Tian Ke's perfunctory attitude. After all, Tian Ke, at this age, wasn't mature enough to handle the situation after her family went bankrupt.

"Hey? Jiang He, why didn't you come with Chen Wanting?"

One by one, several students from a small county in northern Jiangsu arrived. Xia Nan, as the organizer, saw Chen Jianghe alone and asked him a question.

Although the two haven't officially confirmed their relationship, they implicitly acknowledge that Chen Jianghe is currently pursuing Chen Wanting, and that it's only a matter of time before they get together.

Chen Jianghe said casually, "We haven't been in touch much lately!"

"Forehead!"

Xia Nan and the others were caught off guard and were about to ask questions when the door to the private room was pushed open again.

Chen Wanting walked in holding a boy's hand.

"Everyone's here? Let me introduce you all. This is my boyfriend, Guo Wei, a sophomore in the Environmental Art Design Department!"

Everyone: ? ? ?

Everyone glanced at Chen Wanting, then at Chen Jianghe. The group of young people were somewhat at a loss as to how to handle the current situation.

Chen Jianghe seemed to have anticipated this scene. He quickly stood up, stepped forward, and shook Guo Wei's hand:

"Hello, senior! Thank you so much for treating us to dinner today!"

Guo Wei: ? ? ?

When did he say he was going to treat us?

This meal would cost at least 300 yuan, and his monthly living expenses are only around 1000 yuan. If he were to pay for it, it would be a huge loss for him.

Besides, with 300 yuan, he could book two hotel rooms!

but……

The atmosphere has been set; what if he refuses?

He came here under the guise of being Chen Wanting's boyfriend, so he needed to save face to some extent. Besides, he was only a sophomore, and if he said he wouldn't pay in front of these younger students, he would be the one who lost face.

Guo Wei glanced at Chen Wanting with a hint of helplessness.

Chen Wanting's expression was also not very natural. She didn't expect Chen Jianghe to act so unpredictably.

These kinds of meals are supposed to be split equally among everyone, and it should only cost 50 yuan per person at most. Why is it suddenly going to cost 300 yuan?

That's not the main point. The main point is that she originally wanted to show off that she was dating a senior from her university.

Logically, she and her boyfriend should be the ones stealing the show tonight.

Incidentally, she could also let Chen Jianghe know that there was no future for her and him.

She had already been deliberately distancing herself from Chen Jianghe during this period.

After entering university, I realized how naive my high school classmates were. My current boyfriend is not only a minister in the student union, but he also has frequent contact with many teachers and external resources, and has seen a lot of the world.

In comparison, Chen Jianghe, aside from offering words of comfort and concern, couldn't provide her with much more knowledge or experience.

"Okay, consider this my boyfriend treating everyone to dinner today!"

In any case, the meal ended up being a mess; it seemed only Chen Jianghe was focused on eating, while the others looked rather lost.

Tian Ke, in particular, wanted to speak several times, but in the end, he didn't know how to start.

After eating for about half an hour, Chan Yuen-ting made an excuse to leave, but her boyfriend did indeed pay the bill.
