On a long street, there were many old tall buildings, and Zhou Jielun's posters were pasted on the walls. The passers-by were in a hurry and looked old-fashioned.
"Am I not dead?"
Li Xinghe pinched his thigh hard. "It hurts! I can't believe he's still alive!"
The familiar tall buildings, the familiar roads, the familiar fruit shops, and the fat boss. Wasn't this the commercial building he worked in ten years ago?
"Qing Hai, Hu Hu, and Wang You led to the death of many people and the disappearance of 270 people..."
"The next piece of news will be opened on No. 10, and there will be 240 members of the company coming to take part in the meeting..."
In the fruit shop, the fat boss was reading the news while eating melon seeds. The volume was very loud, and the buzz exploded in Li Xinghe's mind.
An earthquake? An earthquake? An earthquake? Wasn't this something that happened in Italy?
Li Xinghe had a very deep impression of him, because as a volunteer, he had gone to the gracefully built hospital. He would never remember the time wrongly.
At the same time, the newspaper on a newspaper stall was blown to the ground. It showed the date of April 20th.
"I was reborn back to ten years ago?"
In his previous life, Li Xinghe was a financial man. He had been working for more than ten years, but he still couldn't make it. His girlfriend asked for a sky-high betrothal, which caused his parents' accidental death. The compromising marriage was full of calculations and oppression. Finally, he was depressed and went on the road of suicide.
But he didn't expect that what awaited him was not hell, but rebirth!
The scenes of his previous life flashed before his eyes. Li Xinghe suppressed the excitement in his heart. Since he had been reborn, he swore to himself that he would change the tragic fate of his previous life!
While he was lost in thought, the phone in his pocket rang.
"Li Xinghe, why haven't you come yet? My parents have been waiting for you for a long time! I'll give you ten minutes. If you don't come now, you'll have to bear the consequences."
After the phone was hung up, Li Xinghe was stunned. "Eat? April 20th? Isn't this the day of my father's car accident?"
Li Xinghe would never forget that day!
The betrothal gifts were worth 200,000 yuan, but his girlfriend, Hu Xiaxuan, and her family were not satisfied. Once again, they asked for 100,000 yuan for betrothal gifts. Their family was already in a desperate situation. After learning of this matter, his father did not say a word. After a day of hard work, in order to earn more betrothal money, his father continued to stay up late and work overtime at night. As a result, he died in a car accident due to fatigue.
What made him angrier was Hu Xiaxuan's attitude. Not only was she not sad at all, but she was also thinking about the compensation of her father's company.
Although he was angry, Li Xinghe finally compromised in his previous life.
He had feelings for Hu Xiaxuan, and he didn't want to come back with the betrothal gift. He couldn't waste his money.
What he didn't know was that this was the beginning of his miserable life.
Today, Li Xinghe could be reborn, and he would never make the same mistake again.
Hu Xiaxuan, I'm going to tell you everything today!
When they arrived at the appointed high-end restaurant, the family of three were waiting. The beautiful woman with white skin, beautiful face, and long legs was her girlfriend, Hu Xiaxuan.
No matter how beautiful a woman was, she couldn't be touched.
"What are you doing? I can't believe you're late for dinner with my parents!" Hu Xiaxuan shouted arrogantly.
Li Xinghe sat down with a gloomy face, and the waiter handed over the menu.
"There's no need. I'll leave after a few words."
"Li Xinghe, what do you mean?" Hu Xiaxuan was annoyed and was about to lose her temper, but was stopped by her mother-in-law, Fang Qin.
"Xia Xuan, you and Xinghe will spend the rest of your life together. Stop arguing."
"That's right!" Hu Lijun, the father-in-law, echoed, "Xingxing is a man. He can do anything at home. He has to give some face to men outside."
The old couple, who usually only knew how to help their daughter, had changed the direction of the situation today. Li Xinghe was not grateful at all because he knew what his family was planning.
"You want to add another 100,000 betrothal gifts, don't you?"
The three of them were all stunned. Hu Xiaxuan asked in confusion, "How did you know?"
Li Xinghe sneered. "I also know that this money is used to buy houses for your parents in the downtown area. The betrothal gifts from my family are only enough for the down payment. After getting married, I have to pay back every month."
Hu Xiaxuan's face was full of surprise. They did plan to do so, but how could Li Xinghe know it in advance?
"My parents also want to live closer to us. Besides, they have worked hard all their lives. Shouldn't they buy a new house to show their filial piety? They don't retire much every month. They can't let the two old people bear the burden, can they?"
"Ha ha..."
Li Xinghe was so angry that he laughed. "According to what you said, shouldn't we buy a house for my parents to fulfill our filial piety?"
"Your parents are so old. It's good to stay in the countryside! Why come to the city to join in the fun? If they really have the money to buy a house, they can take it out to hold a wedding ceremony for Cai Li."
Hu Xiaxuan! How dare you say such things?
Li Xinghe hated the woman in front of him very much, and hated himself for constantly compromising and enduring in his previous life.
Their union was just the beginning of a nightmare. In her previous life, a wedding banquet had exhausted her father's compensation. After getting married, not only would she have to return the loan every month, but she would also have to pay the living expenses from time to time.
The old couple were not easy to deal with. Seeing that Li Xinghe was so easy to bully, they kept finding excuses to ask him for money until he was squeezed dry. They even asked him for money to buy a car. Li Xinghe disagreed, so Hu Xiaxuan secretly borrowed a loan-making car from him with his ID card.
The whole family sucked Li Xinghe in like locusts. Even so, Hu Xiaxuan did not treat his family well. Not to mention her relatives, even her mother had never allowed her to enter the house. Because her mother was from the countryside, Hu Xiaxuan was not even willing to call her mother.
When her father passed away and was treated like this by her daughter-in-law, the anger in her mother's heart came to an end after a year.
On the contrary, Hu Xiaxuan did not feel the slightest bit sad. On the contrary, she felt that there was no burden on her. She was secretly delighted.
All kinds of things in his previous life flashed through his mind. Li Xinghe was so angry that he wished he could give his family a few slaps.
"Li Xinghe, what are you yelling at?" Hu Xiaxuan crossed her arms over her chest and said in an imposing manner, "It's not easy for my parents to support me. This amount of money is nothing. You should pay."
"It's not easy for your parents, but it's easy for my parents." Li Xinghe said angrily, "For the sake of betrothal and marriage, my parents took out all their savings and even planned to sell the house to let us have a glorious wedding. In order to let me get married, they were so tired that they didn't even want to go to the hospital. Do you think all this is what you should do?"
"We can't afford a wedding. It's best if we can sell that shabby house. If we rent a two or three hundred apartment, we'll have more wedding plans."
"Are you crazy?"
Li Xinghe's face was full of disbelief. People could be shameless, but they couldn't be so shameless, could they?
"Humph! You poor guy! If you don't have money, just tell me you don't have money. If you can't give me the happiness I want, don't waste my time!"
Hu Xiaxuan became angry from embarrassment and shouted, "I'm telling you, Li Xinghe. There are so many rich people chasing me. If it weren't for your handsome appearance, I wouldn't have bothered to talk to you."
"I'll put my words here today. If we can't afford 300,000 yuan of betrothal gifts, we'll break up!"
Li Xinghe sneered. Break up? That was exactly what he wanted to say.
"Okay!"
"What?"
Li Xinghe's straightforward attitude stunned Hu Xiaxuan. "Shouldn't he be begging me for an apology?"
At the same time, the quarrel between the two attracted a lot of attention, and Hu each of them was so angry that her face turned red.
"Li Xinghe, are you really going to break up with me?"
"It's you who broke up with me. I agree." After that, Li Xinghe got up and was about to leave.
"Hey, sir, you haven't paid the bill yet. I don't know..."
The waiter had been paying attention to the situation here. Seeing that the two sides had broken down, he hurried forward to ask.
Li Xinghe did not look at the bill. If he remembered correctly, this meal cost him more than 2,000 yuan at that time, which was equivalent to a month. He would not continue to be a sucker in this life.
"I'll pay for whoever gives the order!" After that, Li Xinghe turned around and left without hesitation.
