Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!

In the twin room of the hotel, Cheng Zhu and Jiang Wanzhou were awakened by a phone call for check-out.

Both groggily got out of bed, then went to the bathroom to brush their teeth and wash their faces.

Cheng Zhu had slept very soundly.

Perhaps because he had stayed up late right after being reborn, he felt extremely fatigued.

But fortunately, he was still young and in good health, feeling totally refreshed after a nap.

Even in his past life, after Cheng Zhu had made a fortune, his body hadn't been completely drained by indulgence.

He was actively taking care of his health and fitness.

His thought was simple, "I must take care of my body, my mind is already twisted enough, my body must stay healthy."

After checking out, the two hopped into the Mercedes G parked in the parking lot.

Jiang Wanzhou suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, my cousin said to invite you to dinner, and to bring my other cousin along too."

If Shen Minglang knew that Jiang Wanzhou had distorted his original words like this, he would probably be furious.

"Sure, but not today. Let's do it tomorrow," Cheng Zhu said.

A gathering with friends was quite normal; he had just won some money playing with Jiang Wanzhou and Shen Qingning, so a meal was nothing.

Moreover, Shen Qingning was his future schoolmate. It would be good to build a rapport in advance—certainly not because she was pretty, wealthy, and could do splits.

While driving, Jiang Wanzhou asked, "Why not tonight?"

"Because tonight I feel like eating at the restaurant," Cheng Zhu replied directly.

In his previous life, when he started his business in Wu City, his parents lived in Hangzhou. He might not eat a meal cooked by his father even once a month.

Having tried the food at Yunlai Restaurant the day before, he realized why he had been chubby as a child.

Don't look down on chubby people; that's because you've never eaten at their homes and don't know how delicious their cooking is.

It can be said that their chubbiness is well-justified.

"Alright then, tomorrow it is," Jiang Wanzhou said.

He also felt that since he hadn't gone home the night before, it would be best to go home for dinner today and mark his presence.

Following Cheng Zhu's guidance, Jiang Wanzhou drove him to the Yunlai Restaurant.

"I want to go in and sit for a bit, haven't seen Little Youzi for a long time," Jiang Wanzhou said.

"Sure."

It was afternoon and not yet mealtime, so the restaurant was pretty empty.

Cheng's dad and his mother Xu Yun were selecting vegetables, and his sister Cheng Youu was watching TV.

"You're back. Wanzhou is here too."

"Uncle, Auntie," Jiang Wanzhou greeted.

Cheng Zhu, following him, sat down next to his sister.

"Brother, Brother Jiang," Cheng Youu greeted politely.

"What are you watching?" Cheng Zhu asked.

"Balala the Fairies!" Little Youzi responded in a sweet, milky voice.

Cheng Zhu: "....."

Hearing this name, he was reminded of a once-popular meme: "Rain Girl Has No Melon."

He glanced disdainfully at the TV, but five minutes later, he actually got engrossed!

It was faster paced than most local dramas, not draggy, had no inserted ads, decent fight scenes, thrilling and moral, plus no one could resist magical girl transformations!

—Damn, good show!

This tall young man, who looked like a bully and was about to enter college, sat beside his sister, engrossed in watching with her.

On the other hand, the gloomy Jiang Wanzhou showed no interest, as he preferred domineering CEO dramas.

"I see you looking down on our Prince of Fun," Cheng Zhu glanced disdainfully at him, indicating that he himself had become a fan of the show.

In reality, he didn't care what they watched; he just wanted to spend time with the adorable Little Youzi and foster common interests.

As mealtime approached, Cheng's dad headed to the kitchen, and Xu Yun followed to help.

Little Youzi immediately peeked in the direction of the kitchen, like a little burglar.

Once sure her parents wouldn't come out for a while, the round-faced girl raised her little hand, signaling Cheng Zhu to lean closer.

"What's up?" Cheng Zhu asked softly.

"Brother, this is my pocket money," Cheng Youu opened her pocket, showing the two coins inside.

"Awesome!" Cheng Zhu didn't care what she was babbling about; he just praised her.

But he thought to himself, "Nice one, old Cheng. You always get caught hiding your own money, and now Little You even picked it up."

"Mom too, every time she finds the stash, she confiscates it all. The kids see everything."

Jiang Wanzhou stretched his neck to peep and teased, "Little Youzi, you better hide it well, don't let your shameless brother steal it!"

"Not at all!" Cheng Youu suddenly grabbed Cheng Zhu's big hand with her two little ones and pried his fingers open.

After that, she reached into her pocket, took out two coins, one in each hand.

"I asked mom why all my red packets go to her, but brother gets to spend his after finishing university."

"Mom told me it's because brother is an adult now, and he has many, many expenses."

After saying this, she raised the two one-yuan coins in her hands and gently tapped them together, making a crisp sound.

"I'm worried brother won't have money to spend, so I'm giving you all my money!"

The round-faced little girl bowed her head and stuffed the money into Cheng Zhu's palm.

After speaking, she kept turning her head to look towards the kitchen, urging continuously, "Brother, you better hide it quickly, make sure to hide it well~"

...

...

This year, the summer was still very hot, but Cheng Zhu felt the two coins in his palm were very cold, bringing him a hint of coolness in the summer heat.

However, his palm felt cold, but his heart was melting.

"Damn, do I have to earn two billion for her?" Cheng Zhu thought to himself.

Right in front of Little Youzi, he solemnly put the two dollars into his pocket and zipped it up.

Joking, he might never be willing to spend this money in his lifetime.

To be cherished! Kept and cherished!

Listen up, you seductive vixens outside, if you can't reach my sister's level of dedication, don't even think about seducing me!

At that moment, Cheng Youu raised her little hand and grasped one of Cheng Zhu's ears, then leaned her mouth close, whispering, "Be careful about mom~ and also, this money is for brother, don't share it with Brother Jiang."

Jiang Wanzhou, who always had sharp ears: "....."

Kids will be kids, I'm the super-rich second generation, do you think I care about your two dollars?

What I care about is having a sister like you, okay?

Jiang Wanzhou turned to Cheng Zhu with a serious look, "Cheng Zhu, I've seriously considered it, and I want to become sworn siblings with Little You."

"Scram, scram, scram!" Cheng Zhu instantly got annoyed.

"What level are you, to compare with me?" He was utterly unwilling.

Affection was one thing, but don't think about intruding on our sibling bond.

Jiang Wanzhou pouted, thinking about whether to persuade his parents to have another child.

But then he thought again, not every girl was like Little You, too risky, better forget it.

...

On the other hand, Shen Qingning was at home reading a book when her phone began to vibrate repeatedly, receiving a video call invitation from Lin Lu.

She hung up and called back instead.

The voice actress used a very cutesy voice and said, "Humph! Honey, why won't you accept my video call, could it be that there..."

"Spit it out," Shen Qingning's tone was icy.

"Oh!" Lin Lu responded, but still cheerfully said, "What did you mean in your WeChat message? You're not thinking of inviting that scumbag brother of yours to dinner, are you?"

Lin Lu's voice suddenly changed, becoming sticky sweet, "I've never been in love before, you naughty, pushing me into a pit."

"He doesn't deserve it; your winning money didn't have much to do with him," Shen Qingning cut straight to the point.

"Ah?" Lin Lu paused.

Holding her phone, Shen Qingning concisely summarized the situation.

"So it's because of the bets made with Jiang Wanzhou's friends, right?" Lin Lu got it.

"Right," Shen Qingning said.

After speaking, she added, "So if my brother tries to use the winning money as an excuse to invite you to dinner, ignore him."

—Indeed, his own sister.

"Alrighty!" Lin Lu quickly agreed.

Then, she used a very sweet voice, "Then let me take you out to dinner tomorrow, I miss you."

"Disgusting," Shen Qingning's tone was cold, but she quickly explained, "I'm not free tomorrow, I have to have dinner with my cousin and his friend, and also bring my brother along."

"Huh?" Lin Lu, upon hearing this, suddenly became vigilant.
