Rebirth: My Childhood Sweetheart Came into My Arms

A few seconds later, Lan Yuan attacked again.

He Ziyu hung up without hesitation and blacklisted his number.

In his past life, this guy used him and then kicked him to the curb in the same way. This time, he was just giving him a taste of his own medicine.

"I happened to hear my father mention the Lan Group when I went to the company a few days ago. Apparently, they've fallen to the point where they have to borrow money everywhere," Jiang Chengyu said.

"Serves him right," He Ziyu rolled his eyes. "Who told him to talk such bad things about me behind my back? Calling me incredibly stupid, overestimating myself, and seeing me like a rock in a cesspool... And he still wants me to help his family through their difficulties? Does he think everyone else is an idiot?"

"He even said I was a toad trying to eat swan meat. With his looks, a swan? I'd say he's more like a roast goose... No, that's not right. Calling him a roast goose is an insult to roast geese. Geese are so cute, unlike him, who's like a walking telephone pole, without even a head..."

After He Ziyu fired off a rapid-fire barrage of words, Jiang Chengyu couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Now that you've rejected him, do you feel much better?"

"Of course, it felt incredibly comfortable." He Ziyu hugged Jiang Chengyu's arm. "But I doubt he'll let it go so easily. Be careful these days, I'm worried he might take his anger out on you..."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of him." Jiang Chengyu lifted He Ziyu's chin and looked him in the eye. "But you, try not to have a direct confrontation with him. If that guy comes to provoke you again, tell me immediately, and I will never let him get away with it."

Jiang Chengyu's figure was reflected in He Ziyu's pupils.

After a long pause, he smiled slightly.

"Brother Yu, do you know, my biggest wish in this life is for you to be safe and sound."

"Leave the fighting with the little monsters to me from now on."

"Your safety is the most important thing."

……

In the afternoon, Lan Yuan indeed changed his number and launched a barrage of calls to him. He Ziyu blocked one number, and Lan Yuan changed his number again.

After changing more than a dozen phone numbers, Jiang Chengyu couldn't take it anymore, so he grabbed He Ziyu's phone and pressed the call button.

"He Ziyu, you finally answered the phone! Let me tell you, this isn't over between us! If you keep avoiding me, I'll expose everything about you and Jiang Chengyu, and let everyone know that you, He Ziyu, are a man-loving bastard..."

"Is liking men something shameful?" Jiang Chengyu retorted. "You always use this to attack Ayu, which actually shows that he doesn't have any other flaws. Thinking about it carefully, it's actually a compliment to him."

"You are, Jiang..."

"So go ahead and say what you want to say, no one's stopping you." Jiang Chengyu said calmly, "But if you keep harassing Ayu, who knows what I might do next."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, and then Lan Yuan's restrained voice came through.

"Jiang Chengyu, don't be too happy yet. He Ziyu is treating you well now, but who knows, one day you might end up like me, kicked aside by him."

"besides……"

"The schemes he set up for me today prove that he is a very cunning person. Sooner or later, he will use those dirty tricks on you."

Jiang Chengyu was not afraid at all when he heard Lan Yuan's threat. Instead, he chuckled and said, "You don't need to worry about our private matters."

After hanging up the phone this time, Lan Yuan didn't call back, probably knowing it would be pointless.

He Ziyu: "What did he say to you?"

Jiang Chengyu: "It's the same old stuff, nothing new."

"You're lying, he must have been talking badly about me to you." He Ziyu snatched the phone back from Jiang Chengyu's hand. "That guy doesn't dare threaten you, he can only try to sow discord between us. I saw through him a long time ago."

"Do you think I would believe him?"

"Of course not..."

"If you don't know how, then it's the same as not saying anything at all, right?" Jiang Chengyu smiled. "Ayu, this kind of divisive tactic only works on two people whose relationship was already weak to begin with."

"But we are different."

"In my heart, even if the whole world is against me, I firmly believe that you will stand by my side."

"I believe you think so too, right?"

He Ziyu: "Of course, you are the most important person to me in this world besides my parents..."

"So you can rest assured." Jiang Chengyu put his hand on his shoulder. "I know you better than anyone else what kind of person you are. You don't need to hear secondhand information from them."

"Brother Yu..." He Ziyu looked directly into his eyes, "Every time you say these things to me, I feel like I've had the best luck ever."

Why?

"Because you're too good," He Ziyu's eyes flickered slightly, "People always say that good things happen in this life because you accumulated good karma in your past life, but I know I didn't."

In his past life, he let down too many people and missed out on too many things.

Being able to enjoy Jiang Chengyu's unwavering love after his rebirth was something he never dared to dream of.

But now, the wish has come true.

Jiang Chengyu stood right in front of him, her eyes and heart filled with nothing but him.

He was so happy that it felt almost unreal.

"How can I be as good as you describe me?" Jiang Chengyu raised his hand and rubbed He Ziyu's face. "You see, I'm usually very boring and don't know how to be romantic. You think I'm good, but that's just love blindness."

He Ziyu pouted and once again wrapped his arms around Jiang Chengyu's waist like a koala.

"I don't care, I just think you're the best, better than anyone else..."

This guy still doesn't realize that what he can give is far more than he imagined.

He Ziyu already knew all of this in his previous life.

……

"Eat up, eat as much as you want, it's on me today."

In the barbecue restaurant, Liu Wen leaned back in his chair and greeted the people at the table like an old man.

After receiving the five thousand yuan, He Ziyu first bought himself a pair of sneakers, and then spent the rest on eating, drinking, having fun, and treating his friends to meals.

"Brother Wen, you've struck it rich lately? Didn't you just treat us yesterday?"

"Yeah, if you know a way to make money, bring one of your brothers along! My counterfeit shoe business is really bad lately, and I'm struggling to make ends meet."

Liu Wen looked smug as a bunch of his cronies fawned over him.

"Want to know how to make money? Fine, each of you toast me and I'll tell you."

After Liu Wen finished speaking, the people at the table looked at each other in bewilderment.

After a while, a boy stood up first.

"Brother Wen, let me toast you!" After saying that, he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Liu Wen immediately revealed a satisfied smile.

"Look how sincere Xiao Liang is, and look at you guys! Xiao Liang, from now on, I'll tell you all the ways I make money."

The awkward situation changed because of the boy's initiative.

Some of those who had been holding back put aside their pride, raised their glasses, and gathered around Liu Wen.

"Brother Wen, I salute you!"

"Go away, I'll go first..."

"Brother Wen, I've actually been a fan of yours ever since the first time I watched you play in the league!"

In order to figure out how to make money, everyone at the dinner table was willing to put aside their pride, and Liu Wen also enjoyed the feeling of being immersed in hypocritical flattery.

He had felt incredibly stifled for too long when he was Lan Yuan's underling.

Now that I've risen to power, how can I not enjoy being the center of attention and admired by everyone?

"Alright, alright, I see your sincerity." Liu Wen asked everyone to sit back down. "I'll tell you where this money came from now on."

After Liu Wen's incredible description, everyone's eyes widened in amazement.

"He Ziyu? You mean the young master of the He family at your school?"

Does he also like playing basketball?

Liu Wen clicked his tongue. "You guys don't know, he used to watch our basketball team play a lot when he was in junior high school. Back then, he would bring Lan Yuan water and food every day."

"So he doesn't actually like Lan Yuan, he just likes his basketball skills?"

"Of course!" Liu Wen said with beaming eyes. "Now that Lan Yuan is no longer capable, I'm the only one carrying the team. He saw that I have the ability, so he came to humbly ask for my advice."

To exaggerate his own abilities, Liu Wen told those people that he obtained the money by "teaching He Ziyu to play ball".

He both slapped Lan Yuan in the face and boosted his own reputation.

He was a master of the art of killing two birds with one stone.

"Could we teach him how to play too? Although his skills aren't as good as Wen's, we should be more than capable of teaching him, right?"

Liu Wen shrugged. "I don't know about that. He definitely picks the best teachers. If you think you have the ability, then go ahead and give it a try."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately thanked Liu Wen profusely for telling them this great way to make money.

"Oh, right." Liu Wen thought of something, "When you go to see him, don't say that I recommended him, otherwise he'll think I thought he was too bad a student and recommended him to someone else."

"Okay, okay, no problem..."

The dinner table was filled with laughter and chatter, and the clinking of glasses added to the lively atmosphere.

At the end of the meal, Liu Wen waved his hand and called the waiter to pay the bill.

A minute passed.

Two minutes passed.

Five minutes passed, and the waiter who was supposed to be there right away still hadn't arrived.

Liu Wen couldn't stand it anymore, so he rolled up his sleeves and stood up, ready to argue with the restaurant owner.

Before he could even step out of the private room, he was pushed back by a brute force.

Liu Wen staggered a couple of steps, and when he regained his balance, he was shocked to find that the person standing in front of him was none other than Lan Yuan, whom he had been making fun of these past few days.

"What are you doing here?" Liu Wen was a little tipsy and could only see Lan Yuan as a double image.

Lan Yuan stared at him without saying a word.

Everyone else in the private room was stunned, staring at the two of them. Some of the busybodies even secretly took out their phones and turned on the recording function.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Are you mute?" Seeing that Lan Yuan remained silent, Liu Wen grew impatient, pushed past him, and walked out. "Don't block the way if you have nothing to do, you're annoying..."

Unexpectedly, Liu Wen was pulled back again as soon as he finished speaking.

Immediately afterwards, in full view of everyone, Lan Yuan swung his fist and smashed it hard into his face!
