Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

In May, the midday sun, in particular, scorches the earth.

Chen Jianji stood in front of the bus stop at the entrance of the village, carrying his schoolbag.

He glanced at Chen Guochang, who seemed somewhat absent-minded, and asked in bewilderment.

"Dad, Mom wouldn't have abused you to the point of mental breakdown, would she?"

Chen Guochang came to his senses.

"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"

As he spoke, he subconsciously reached into his pocket, wanting to grab a cigarette.

But when I reached inside, I realized that the cigarette pack had been confiscated last night!

Chen Guochang then stopped and patted Chen Jianji on the shoulder.

"I've discussed what you told me yesterday with your mother, and we'll see how to handle it."

"Now, you should focus on your studies, and you don't need to worry about making money."

Chen Jianji stared at him quietly for a long while.

Like him, Chen Guochang is not good at hiding his emotions.

His joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness were all written on his face.

Just like now, his face was still full of worry, but it was clear that he wasn't worried about how his family would develop.

But Chen Jianji doesn't seem to remember anything that happened at home during this time in his previous life.

"Dad, has something happened at home?"

He finally couldn't help but ask.

"Dad, just tell me. Even if the family is bankrupt, I can handle it."

Chen Guochang was speechless with exasperation.

"What do you mean by bankruptcy? Our family is one of the better-off families in the village. Even if things get really bad, you won't go hungry."

Is there anything else Chan Kin-kei wants to say?

But then a car horn sounded in the distance.

The bus hadn't even stopped, but the doors were already open.

People got off the bus in twos and threes.

Chen Jianji then spoke.

"I have to get on the bus now, or I won't have time to talk to you anymore."

Chen Guochang laughed and scolded.

"You little rascal, you've hardly been home these past two years, but it's unusual for you to be concerned about the family now."

"Get in the car and go back to school. Don't get in the way. It's much quieter for your mom and me when you're not home."

"Alright."

Without further hesitation, Chen Jianji stepped into the car.

But as soon as I stepped onto the pedals...

Chen Guochang hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Xinyi will be transferring to your school this Monday. If you have time, please take good care of her."

Chen Jianji looked back.

So, it was because of Zhang Xinyi?

Zhang Xinyi is his aunt's daughter.

His aunt is Chen Guochang's younger sister.

What could be causing Dad so much worry? Has something happened to my aunt?

Chen Jianji suddenly remembered that in his previous life, his cousin did not seem to have taken the college entrance examination.

Instead, after graduating from high school, for some unknown reason, she went abroad with her aunt.

My parents have never mentioned this.

Or perhaps it was because she saw that he was so focused on Lin Qingxue that she didn't want to bother him.

But in this life, Chan Kin-kei has come to understand that family is more important than anything else.

Chen Jianji waved and smiled.

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

After he finished speaking, he turned around, got into the car, and put the change he had prepared into the machine.

The car door was quickly closed.

Outside the car window, the scenery flashed by, and Chen Guochang, who had been standing at the bus stop, gradually became a small black shadow until he disappeared.

Chen Jianji also looked away.

Don't worry, Dad. This time, I will take good care of my cousin and share the burden of the family.

Chen Jianji tightened his backpack and walked to the back of the bus to find a seat.

The bus takes a long, winding route and it takes a full two hours to get to the school.

Chen Jianji gets carsick, especially when he sits in the back, but there's nothing he can do about it since the back is spacious and convenient for sleeping.

I had just sat down in the corner of the car.

The phone in my pocket rang.

Chen Jianji picked it up and took a look.

It was a call from Zhang Ziliang.

He pressed the call button.

"Hey, Brother Kei, where are you?"

Zhang Ziliang's excited voice rang out.

Chen Jianji put his schoolbag in his arms and looked out the window.

"I just took the bus back to school from home."

Zhang Ziliang asked eagerly, "Was it the D1 bus that came to the school from the village entrance?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then get off at Jiangnan Xinyuan halfway there. We'll go to Liu Hai's house; his computer's fixed, so you can go over and play some games!"

Chen Jianji rubbed his head, which was starting to feel dizzy from the bumpy ride.

"Didn't you spend the whole night at an internet cafe? Aren't you tired?"

Zhang Ziliang complained on the other end of the phone.

"We couldn't go to the internet cafe last night because you weren't there. Unlike you, who's always betraying your teammates."

Chen Jianji pursed his lips.

"Speaking of which, at this crucial moment of the college entrance examination, the other three were probably dragged back home by their families, right?"

"I know you guys well enough; you're just as good at betraying your teammates as I am."

After being exposed, Zhang Ziliang said helplessly.

"Just tell me if you're coming or not. His family isn't here all afternoon, only Liu Hai and his brother are here. We're going to get some fresh air; we're all suffocating at school."

"I'm almost there on your bicycle, just come on over."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianji looked up at the bus stop posted on the side panel of the bus.

It is 15 stops away from the school, while Jiangnan Xinyuan is only 8 stops away.

Chen Jianji rubbed his increasingly dizzy head before speaking.

"Okay, I'll ride my bicycle back to school then, you can take the bus."

"We can ride back together."

"You're too heavy, it's too much for you."

"I'll ride you."

"Get lost!"

After hanging up the phone.

Chen Jianji put his phone in his pocket and then hugged his backpack.

As the bus swayed along, my eyelids gradually grew heavy, and I drifted into a half-dream, half-awake state.

Only when I heard the jarring announcement of the arrival time did I slightly lift my eyelids.

Until I don't know how much time had passed.

[Ding! Xinhua Square Station has arrived. Please exit from the rear door. Please be careful when the doors open and walk carefully after disembarking.]

Chen Jianji glanced at it, still a little confused.

Yes, hang in there, the next stop is just around the corner.

Chen Jianji turned to the side, shifting to a more comfortable position, and looked out the window at the bustling crowd scrambling to get on the bus.

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out from not far inside the car.

"Xiaoxue, how much do you earn tutoring? You only bought 50 yuan worth of workbooks at the bookstore?! Add in travel expenses, aren't you losing money?"

Chen Jianji was stunned.

Even the dizziness in my head has subsided considerably.

That sound...

It's Li Wenyan!
