After Su Lin finished explaining his plan, Lin Xiaowan and Xiao Yu fell into a thoughtful silence. Su Lin’s ideas for the supermarket were very comprehensive, covering all aspects of the business. Finally digesting the information, Lin Xiaowan asked, “Su Lin, what would Xiaoyu and I do then? We’re just high school students with good grades, nothing more.” Su Lin shook his head, “No, you both haven’t realized your potential. Let’s start with you, Xiaowan. Your logical thinking is clear,…-

Ye Feng lay on his bed, staring despondently at his somewhat faded pillow. Life had lost its luster for him as he began to question his existence. Reborn with a second chance, he had thought he could quickly amass his first fortune, rise to power, win over his childhood sweetheart and white moonlight, and reach the pinnacle of life. But reality had dealt him a harsh blow. Repeated failures led him to introspection. Even with a rebirth and enhanced memory, he realized he was still fundamentally flawed. He…

“Mom, don’t listen to their nonsense, I just…” Before Ye Feng could finish, a sharp slap landed on his face. Liu Mei, tears in her eyes, looked at him incredulously. “Xiao Feng, there’s no one else here. Tell me, what did you do with that 80,000 yuan?” Ye Feng struggled to speak, knowing he couldn’t avoid the truth any longer. “I… I invested it.” “Did you make any profit?” “I lost it… lost all of it,” Ye Feng choked out. “All 80,000?” “There’s a few thousand…

Seeing Lin Xiaowan still sulking, Su Lin couldn’t resist and gently patted her head again, “Alright, don’t be mad anymore. How about this? I’ll treat you to a big meal at noon. I heard there’s a new barbecue restaurant nearby. Their pork belly is especially delicious – crispy and not greasy at all.” Lin Xiaowan, who hadn’t had breakfast, was easily tempted by Su Lin’s suggestion. “Barbecue? Where?” “There, there! But let’s make a deal, Xiaowan. If we go for the barbecue, no more…

For the first time, Su Lin realized that despite Lin Xiaowan’s seemingly delicate appearance, she possessed surprisingly strong wrist strength. Had his body not been enhanced, he believed his arm would have been sore for days from her grip. After traversing several rooms, they finally reached what was referred to as the ancestral hall. “Su Lin, why is there a breeze in this ancestral hall? Isn’t it a sealed room? How can there be wind inside?” Lin Xiaowan’s hair stood on end from the cold…

Seeing one girl after another coming out in tears, the queue outside was getting longer, and most of the boys accompanied the girls. It was evident that girls were truly a contradictory group, lacking a clear understanding of their own abilities and seeking excitement unnecessarily. Su Lin looked at Lin Xiaowan, whose face had turned a bit pale, feeling somewhat sympathetic. “If you’re really scared, we won’t play this. We can go for the activities you mentioned.” Lin Xiaowan shook her head.…

On the weekend, in the residential area, Lin Xiaowan got up early. Unprecedentedly, she carefully dressed herself while getting ready, though it wasn’t heavy makeup. She tidied up her appearance from her outfit to her hairstyle. “Darling, are you done? Why are you taking so long today?” Lin Xiaowan examined herself closely, made sure everything was fine, and then opened the door. “I’m done, Mom. You’re usually the one who spends the most time in the bathroom. Dad and I never complain, but…

On the other side, when Ye Feng returned home, he once again saw the house filled with smoke. His mother, Liu Mei, was sitting at the dining table, wiping her tears. Ye Weimin was nearby, furrowing his brow and smoking a cigarette. Ye Feng was puzzled. It hadn’t even been a day; everything was fine when he left in the morning. How did things turn out like this in the afternoon? “Mom, I’m back,” Ye Feng greeted with a smile, trying to cheer up Liu Mei. Seeing Ye Feng return, Liu Mei grabbed his…

As Ye Feng prepared to leave, Lin Xiaowan called out, “Ye Feng, you haven’t mentioned the time yet. We can’t possibly continue this competition into university, can we?” Ye Feng’s mouth twitched slightly before he replied, “Let’s make it the final monthly exam.” “Alright, then the final monthly exam it is,” Su Lin nodded in agreement. Seeing Su Lin accept the bet, Ye Feng knew there was no point in staying any longer. He headed towards the playground to watch Feng Yifei’s…

Ultimately, the three of them headed to the playground, drawn by the bustling excitement. “Wow, so many people! Are they all here to watch Yan Huan and Feng Yifei run laps?” Su Lin laughed, “They might be here for Yan Huan, but as for Feng Yifei? Who cares about him?” “Why is everyone so interested in Yan Huan instead of Feng Yifei?” Xia Shiyu asked, clearly confused. Su Lin glanced at her and shook his head, “Xiaoyu, you probably won’t get why, maybe Xiaowan knows.” Lin Xiaowan…
