“Okay!’ I left my phone number to Professor Dong and walked out of his office. This is amazing, I got a powerful support, it’s no problem even if I don’t go to class anymore. It seems to be fine even if I don’t take exams, right? Gaga!

When I got back to the classroom, I saw Zhang Jiaming there again, and was chatting with Zhao Yanyan on my seat. Zhao Yanyan showed a look of contempt, and cried out towards me as if she was looking for help after she saw me come in, “Liu Lei, what did Professor Dong find you for?”

I quickly ran back to my seat and said to Zhang Jiaming, “Sorry, my girlfriend’s looking for me, please excuse me!”

Zhang Jiaming stood up with an expression of dissatisfaction. Right before leaving, he turned to Zhao Yanyan and said, “Zhao Yanyan, consider it!”

Zhao Yanyan didn’t even look at him, so Zhang Jiaming could only glare and leave in annoyance.

“Why did you think of asking me for help, don’t you dislike me as well!” I said with a smile.

“Yeah, but you’re not as despicable as them, so might as well use you as a shield!” Zhao Yanyan said craftily.

I knew that her impression of me in her heart has already changed, I didn’t point it out though, I merely said, “Professor Dong wants to establish a software company and wants me to help!”

“You? Oh yeah, you didn’t say it yet, have you learnt computing before?” Zhao Yanyan was very confused about my shocking performance during the class in the morning.

“Of course, don’t you remember? We took lessons together at the Shaoniangong in Songjiang city, and even entered a national computing competition together!” I said.

“Che, here you go again! Can’t you be more creative, this lady is no fool, can’t you use a more interesting method?” Zhao Yanyan twitched her mouth and said.

“What do you mean by interesting?” I faint, Zhao Yanyan actually still thinks that I’m making up a story to trick her just to pursue her.

“Such as asking me out to play, or giving me some flowers…” Zhao Yanyan said casually.

“Do you mean that you agree to go on a date with me?” Hearing Zhao Yanyan say that, I knew that our relationship seemed to improve once again.

However, Zhao Yanyan instantly realized that there was something wrong with what she said. She explained with an embarrassed blush, “It’s just that Zhang Jiaming wanted to ask me out, so I said it casually, don’t misunderstand!”

“I didn’t misunderstand, didn’t misunderstand, hehe!” I really wanted to laugh loudly! I disregard that lesson was about to start, and swiftly jumped out of the classroom window.

Zhao Yanyan freaked, the building we were studying in was one with staircases, the window was one and a half floors above the ground. Zhao Yanyan thought to herself, this fellow can’t have fallen to his death, right. So, she quickly ran over to the window to see, when she saw my fleeting back, she felt a sudden sweetness in her heart. She smiled meaningfully and muttered to herself, is there a need to be so happy?

I ran all the way to the school gate, then rushed in after seeing a flower shop.

“This student, do you want to buy flowers?” said a chubby old man towards me.

“Yes, shop owner!” I said with a pant. With my current body condition, I didn’t use up any stamina to ran, the reason I was panting was because I was too worked up!

“Hehe, for your girlfriend?” The chubby old man asked with a chuckle.

“Yeah… Kind of,” I wasn’t sure what sort of relationship I currently had with Zhao Yanyan.

“Oh, then that means you didn’t get her yet?” The chubby old man smiled. “Then buy roses, you can buy 1, 11 or 99. Of course, that would depend on your economic ability, the effects are pretty much the same.”

Hehe, this old man is really interesting, there’s actually someone that runs a business like him, he actually told me the effects were pretty much the same! Just what other shop owners wouldn’t want to sell more!

Thus, I smiled, “Then I’ll have 99, help me package it please!”

“No problem,” The chubby old man swiftly took out 99 roses from the bucket, placed it on the wrapping paper, and then poured a bit of glitter-like decoration on it and bundled it all together. Then he asked, “Do you want to leave a message?”

“No need, thank you Chubby Uncle, how much is it?” I received the flowers and asked in satisfaction.

“99 kuai,” replied the chubby owner.

I handed him a hundred kuai note, and wanted to say that there’s no need for the change. However, I felt like it would make it seem like it was out of pity, so I didn’t. That’s because this Chubby Uncle was rather nice, and the flower wasn’t expensive.

The chubby owner handed me a one yuan coin, which I casually tossed into the donation box at the school gate for the students in poverty.

I didn’t care that it was lesson time, and directly rushed into the classroom with flowers. When I saw that it was still Professor Dong’s lesson, I instantly let out a sigh of relief, greeted him, then returned to my seat.

Seeing that I brought a bouquet of flowers in, the entire class couldn’t help but sigh. However, since I acted rather amazingly normally, and they saw that the professor didn’t have any issues with it, they didn’t say anything.

Yet, Zhao Yanyan seemed like she was burning up, her face was bright red, even redder than a tomato.

“For you!” I handed the flowers to Zhao Yanyan.

This is way too awkward, Zhao Yanyan thought to herself. Originally, she didn’t plan on receiving it, but then she thought of how Liu Lei’s action would be even more awkward if she didn’t take it! Thus, she quickly grabbed the flowers and put it underneath the table, then said angrily, “Who told you to buy flowers!”

“You!” I smiled.

“… But I didn’t tell you to go right now! I really got screwed by you!” Zhao Yanyan dipped her head in embarrassment and said.

“It’s alright, since everyone knows about our relationship…” I chuckled.

“Who has any relationship with you!” Zhao Yanyan turned around, ignored me and started to read her textbook.

Seeing Zhao Yanyan’s appearance, I couldn’t be happier. Hehe, don’t think that I don’t know, you are pretending to read the book full heartedly, but you haven’t flipped a page in so long.

As my happy life started, trouble came again, causing me to couldn’t help but leave my darling Yanyan for a while.

The situation was like this, after class that day, just as I escorted Zhao Yanyan back to her dorm, my phone rang. I took it out and saw that it was Chen Weier.

“Weier, what happened?” I asked.

“Hubby, something happened at home. My mom just called me and told me that dad got taken away!” Chen Weier said anxiously.

“Taken away? Who took him away?” My first reaction was – could it be a kidnapping for ransom? That was because Chen Weier’s family had already gotten richer with Mother Chen’s restaurant, they probably managed to save up a million or so.

“It’s the police.”

Hearing that, I let out a sigh of relief, it’s easy to deal with as long as it’s not a kidnapping. Thus, I asked, “Why di the police arrest your dad?”

“My mom didn’t say it clearly, but the basic premise if that my dad hit someone… What should we do!” Chen Weier said anxiously.

“Don’t get worked up, where are you, I’ll go over to find you immediately. If it can’t be helped, then I’ll go back with you!’ I said.

“I’m at the school gate!” said Chen Weier.

“Okay, wait for me, I’ll be there immediately, “I said. Then I explained to Zhao Yanyan rashly, telling her that I had something urgent to take care of, so I have to leave now.

The class was instantly filled with a round of laughter, causing Zhao Yanyan to stomp her feet in anger. She was truly annoyed with my lack of motivation!

“Hai hai! Liu Lei, according to what I know, you sleep in my lesson every time, you finally aren’t sleeping, yet you aren’t paying attention in class, this studying attitude isn’t right…” The professor started scolding me continuously.

After that, he immediately changed his tone and said, “Okay, let’s continue to look at this program, the program should be written like this…” With that, he started writing on the blackboard, as if he forgot about me. However, he didn’t tell me to sit down.

Isn’t this deliberately messing with me! Yet, since the professor didn’t speak, I should sit down, since I should respect my teachers at school a bit more.

However… Hehe, since you messed with me like that, shouldn’t I repay you in full as well? AS I looked at the program he wrote on the blackboard, a plan arose.

“This program can be written like this…” The professor explained as he wrote. “Alright, does anyone have any questions?”

“Professor, the way you wrote the program is too tedious, although the execution result is the same, why not make it more simplified?” I immediately said.

Everyone in the class, including Zhao Yanyan, looked at me with a weird expression. They didn’t understand why I, a student that never listened in class, would suddenly say that, could it be that I was deliberately causing trouble?

The professor pushed his glasses up and said to me, “Oh? Then how does Liu Lei think it should be simplified?”

I walked towards the stage, took a piece of chalk, and started writing on another blank space on the blackboard. The hundred plus lines of code was simplified to fifty something lines.

When I put down the chalk and walked back to my seat, the professor looked at me with a shocked expression. Then, he nodded understandingly, which actually caused me to become a bit confused.

I took the chance to sit down. Hehe, the feeling of standing like an idiot really isn’t good!

“The program after Liu Lei’s simplification is very good, not only did it improve the code, it also improved the efficiency of execution, this will use less RAM…” The professor started to tlak about the program I wrote.

Zhao Yanyan looked at me with an admiring expression, but said, “You guessed it, right!”

“…” This made me recall what Zhao Yanyan had said to me during high school as well.

“Don’t you never study?” Zhao Yanyan asked me in confusion.

“Ugh… Who said I don’t study, it’s just that I spend all the time during the day to chat you up, and have no time to study, I have to fight through the night under the lights every day….” Gaga, I did fight through the night every day, but I fought Chen Weier during the night.

“Che… I’m going to ignore you now!” Zhao Yanyan turned around with a blush.

Hehe, I don’t believe that you can escape my grasp!

“Liu Lei, come to my office for a moment!” said the professor after class.

Going to the office? It can’t be, he can’t be scolding me due to me taking his spotlight, right?

I followed the professor to his office… Huh? Faculty head’s office? This geezer is the faculty head? F̲u̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g hell, now I’m screwed! I thought he was just a normal professor.

“Liu Lei, you don’t remember me?” The professor closed the door, poured a cup of water for me, then sat back onto the sofa.

“You…” I swept over the name plate on the office table. Dong Yuchen. I don’t have any memories of that, why did he ask me this? Could this guy be reborn as well”

“Professor Dong, have we met before?” I asked in a testing manner.

“Yeah, not only have we met before, I even gave you a prize!” With that, Professor Dong turned on the computer on his desk.

A prize? I was more and more confused, when have I gotten a prize before? Could it be the National Teenage Computing Competition I entered with Zhao Yanyan? I thought back to it. The person that presented me with the prize did seem to be him, the only thing that changed was his hairstyle. Thus, I said, “Professor Dong, are you talking about that National Teenage Computing Competition?”

“Yeah! You remember!” Professor Dong nodded, “That was the first national computing competition, and I was the main judge, so I had a really deep impression of you! I still have your piece from back then!’ With that, he opened a file, and executed an application, causing the computing screen to instantly show my the piece I wrote back then, Zhao Yanyan in a white jacket standing at the entrance of Huaxia University.

Suddenly, Professor Dong pointed at the computer screen and said to me after thinking about it a little, “This girl is the girl sitting beside you in class?”

I nodded.

“No wonder, I felt that this girl looked really familiar the first day! Yet, why did you think about using Huaxia University as the background back then?” Professor Dong asked.

“Ugh… That’s because we set Huaxia University as our target in the future,” I said casually. Of course I couldn’t say that I was reborn!

“So it’s like that! It seems like you guys got what you wished for. However, Zhao Yanyan back then didn’t look the same as now, right? Your piece…” Professor Dong finally asked me the fatal question.

“Ah!” I momentarily blanked, f̲u̲c̲k̲, I can’t let him continue asking like this, otherwise, I’ll let it slip sooner or later, so I had to quickly change the topic. Thus, I said perfunctorily, “This is also my imagination of what she is like after she matures, I didn’t think that it really is similar, haha.”

Professor Dong nodded, but didn’t continue delving on it, he started to get to the main point, “Fortunately you didn’t sleep today, otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that someone so talented was among my students!”

“Hehe!” I chuckled dryly in embarrassment.

“Oh yeah, I’ve been getting troubled over talents recently. The situation is like this, our school’s computing faculty is preparing to start a software company, mainly for Hanzi character recognition! I’m going to be the leader for this project, come and help out, Liu Lei!” said Professor Dong.

“Okay,” I thought about it, then said. “however, this projects seems to need a lot of funding, do we have enough money? From what I know, not only does the software for OCR have to be good, it also needs to be supported by the scanning hardware!”

“Hehe, the chancellor already approved us for the funding, we can use the money from the school’s Huaxia Investment!” said Professor Dong. “Liu Lei, it seems like I didn’t find the wrong person, you even know OCR, so you did do quite a bit of research on recognition systems!”

Huaxia Investments? Isn’t that the company Zhang Jiaming is in charge of, it seems like Wang Peng was right, the money in Zhang Jiaming’s hands can’t be underestimated!

“I just read a bit of it on foreign websites!” I said humbly. Hehe, the amount of profit for OCR wasn’t a lot, so I didn’t get Uncle Zhao and then to research it, since I had a lot of incomplete projects on hand. However, this doesn’t mean that I don’t understand about it.

“Okay, that’s a promise. I’ll get a few more students to research with us, I’ll notify you by phone after it’s all set!” said Professor Dong.

That’s why, in order to not disturb Zhao Yanyan’s listen in class, I started sleeping whenever class started. This made me recall the high school times, I was like that as well, Zhao Yanyan would listen intently on the side, while I slept my days away.

Zhao Yanyan was already completely speechless, she thought more than once, why’s this person like that, sleeping whenever class starts, and it just had to be beside her!! Although she didn’t have anything to do with him, the professor didn’t think so! Looking at the professor’s ambiguous gaze, they must have misunderstood that he was her boyfriend. Ai, so embarrassing, why does this fellow like sleeping so much!

Just as I was enjoying my sleep, I was slapped away. I opened my eyes, and saw an okay-looking boy in a suit stand in front of me.

“Hey, this classmate, can you sleep somewhere else?” The boy deliberately posed very coolly and said.

F̲u̲c̲k̲, I intentionally got pissed, is this person a r̲e̲t̲a̲r̲d̲? How’s it his business where I slept? Thus, I said coldly, “Why do I have to go somewhere else?”

That boy clearly blanked, then said very cockily towards me, “You don’t know who I am?”

“Are you a r̲e̲t̲a̲r̲d̲? Did your head get kicked by a mule?” I found it hilarious, first, this person tells me to sleep somewhere else, and now he asked me if I knew him! The world truly is big enough for all sort of things to happen!

Hearing that, the boy’s face turned green. He was kind of a famous person in Huaxia University, right? However, he thought about it, this person was a new student in first year, it’s normal for himself not to be unknown to them, thus he said, “I’m called Zhang Jiaming, from the second year of Business Management!”

Zhang Jiaming? Never heard of him. I tried my best to think about the memories from my previous life. There wasn’t this person! It seems like as time passed our reborn, the butterfly effect is more and more apparent. The things that has begun to happen is completely different from my previous life.

When a student beside Zhang Jiaming saw my expression that still confused, he quickly explained on the side, “This is the manager of Huaxia Investments!”

Huaxia Investments? Oh, I remember, I do have some recollection of this name. Huaxia Investments is an investment organization that Huaxia University established in order to encourage students to start their own business, it invests in the company that the students establish in exchange for a portion of shares. It was somewhat similar to the current venture capital firms, but this organization strictly focused on Huaxia University’s students.

Seeing that I nodded, Zhang Jiaming’s lackey continued proudly, “How’s that, hurry up and move, our Director Zhang is going to pick up a girl! I’m telling you, if you get into a good relationship with our Director Zhang, he can send eighty or a hundred thousand to you instantly!”

F̲u̲c̲k̲, it’ll be weird if this funding is managed by this person don’t lose way too much money. Now I also understand why a lot of the businesses that students start fail, the management regulations are too terrible!

“Sorry, I’m not interested in your investment. Okay now, please stop disturbing my sleep… Oh, also, if you have any ill thoughts about my girlfriend, I’ll make sure you leave here horizontally!” I said coldly.

“Brat, don’t not recognize when someone is praising you! I’m telling you, there is no advantage for you if you offend Director Zhang, it’ll cause you to have lots of trouble in Huaxia University! Director Zhang getting interested in your girlfriend is her fortune, many girls throw themselves at our Director Zhang, but he’s not interested at them at all!” Zhang Jiaming’s lackey barked wildly at me as he pointed just like a s̲h̲i̲t̲t̲y dog.

“Oh? Then try!” I reached my hand out to pick him up like someone picks up a chicken.

“What… What are you going!” The lackey clearly did not expect I’ll use force.

“What? You are barking wildly beside my ear and disturbing my sleep, don’t you know that the consequences are severe?” I lifted him up with one hand casually with minimum effort and said.

“Okay now, this classmate, let’s not get angry!” Seeing that I wasn’t any kind of nice guy, Zhang Jiaming quickly tried to calm us down. Then he scolded that lackey, “Wang Peng, how many times have I told you about your s̲h̲i̲t̲t̲y mouth, it’s always causing trouble for me!” With that, he gave a cue to Wang Peng.

“Ugh… Ah, hehe, sorry, Director Zhang!” Wang Peng immediately understood him.

“What’s the use of saying sorry to me, hurry up and apologize to this classmate!” said Zhang Jiaming.

“Oh, this classmate, I’m so sorry!” said Wang Peng.

“Hehe!” I snorted coldly and threw Wang Peng to the side. This pair of master and servant was clearly acting, do they think that I can’t tell. If this Zhang Jiaming did not signal Wang Peng, would he dare to act so cockily!

“Alright, sorry for disturbing!” Zhang Jiaming did very well to cover, but from the lecherous gaze he looked at Zhao Yanyan with, as well as the spiteful gaze he looked at me with, how was it possible for me to not understand what he was thinking!

It just that I was busy pursuing Zhao Yanyan right now, so I didn’t have the time to deal with them. Since I spent all my time with Zhao Yanyan every single day aside from when I’m sleeping, I wasn’t scared of him doing anything.

“Why were you so aggressive towards them just now!” After Zhang Jiaming left, Zhao Yanyan asked me with a blush. It was clearly because I called her my girlfriend just now.

“It’s obvious that that Zhang Jiaming didn’t have any good intentions, he clearly just want to chat you up, and didn’t that Wang Peng say it a well!” I said.

“So you have good intentions? Don’t you want to… that me?” Zhao Yanyan blinked and looked at me with a smiling and not smiling intention.

During university, I was able to retain the good habit of never bringing my books to class.

This day, I truly wasn’t sleepy, perhaps I slept too much recently, causing me to not be able to even fall asleep. I just brought Chen Weier to get a room every day, causing the girly to be dead tired, while praying for Zhao Yanyan to return to my embrace quickly. Otherwise, she would be screwed to death by me.

Seeing that I wasn’t sleeping and blanked out while staring at her on the side, she pushed the book between us embarrassedly and said, “Let’s share a book, you should listen to class, otherwise, what are you going to do during the test! Don’t think that I’ll give you the answers!”

Hearing that, I felt a sudden joy, that means Zhao Yanyan started caring about me! Hard work truly does pay off! Just as I was getting happy, I heard someone suddenly call my name, “Liu Lei, come and answer the question just now!”

I raised my head in confusion, and saw the professor in charge of the lesson looking at me.

F̲u̲c̲k̲, isn’t he messing with me, how am I supposed to know what the question was!

Just as I was getting annoyed, Zhao Yanyan kicked me and said quietly, “The second to last line on page 69!”

I quickly picked up the book and swiftly flipped to the page and started reading, “Huaxia University Press, set price 29.38 yuan…” F̲u̲c̲k̲, just as I was thinking about how caring the chick Zhao Yanyan was, actually telling me the answer, I saw that I misread the page number, and actually flipped to page 96.

In order to not cause any awkwardness, I quickly gave Liu Yue a cue for her to watch Zhao Yanyan as I drag Zhao Junsheng out and tell him the current situation.

“It can’t be, Xiao Liu, why is it so much of a coincidence! Ai, this time I can’t help you either!” Hearing my troubles, Zhao Junsheng said helplessly.

“I’m trying to think of a way, but Yanyan doesn’t believe what I’m saying at all!” I shook my head and said.

“This is easy to deal with!” Zhao Junsheng suddenly said.

“What, Uncle Zhao, you have a good plan?” Hearing Zhao Junsheng say that, I quickly asked.

“Mhmm. What I mean is that you can pursue her again!” Zhao Junsheng gave two dry coughs and said.

“F̲u̲c̲k̲!” I’m going to faint, I thought it was some kind of amazing plan, he’s actually telling me to pursue Zhao Yanyan again! However, this might be a good method! But, can I succeed?

“You pursued her once and have the experience, so it’ll definitely be easier!” Zhao Junsheng drove me on and said.

“What easy, she was young then, so it was easier. Don’t you see how protective she is of herself, how am I supposed to pursue her!” I complained.

“Hai hai! So you tricked my daughter like that, you finally admitted it!” Zhao Junsheng smiled evilly and said.

“Ugh… Let’s not talk about this for not. Talk about how I’m supposed to pursue her! Uncle Zhao, you don’t want Yanyan to find another boyfriend, right!” I quickly changed the topic.

“Of course I don’t hope so, you’re my boss, of course I want to marry my daughter to you!” said Zhao Junsheng.

“Say, Uncle Zhao, why are you getting less and less serious the older you get. Can you say something useful? Zhao Yanyan has no more relationship to my, then the shares under her name can be yours now. Doesn’t that mean that it’s more beneficial for Zhao Yanyan not to be with me?” I shrugged and said.

“About this… Aren’t I just making a joke to relax the atmosphere!” Zhao Junsheng said in self-mockery. “However, I will teach you an ultimate move. For pursuing girls, you just have to be thick skinned, pester her shamelessly, you’ll succeed ninety percent of the time!”

“Shamelessly? Pester? Does that actually work?” To be honest, I really didn’t like this sort of bad ideas.

“Why doesn’t it work! I tried it out myself! Look, Yanyan’s mom is pretty, right? At the time, she was very tsun, but ever since I failed pursuing your mom, I concluded that you have to be brave to pick up girls, and be shameless!” Zhao Junsheng said proudly.

“Really?”

“Of course!”

“Are you sure?”

“Very sure!”

“Then I’ll try!”

“I hope you succeed, I’m waiting for my grandchild!”

“…”

After listening to Zhao Junsheng’s shocking advice, I stayed in Zhao Yanyan’s ward the following day. I just don’t believe that I can’t move her!

Yet, Zhao Junsheng’s attitude towards e also turned from disgust to the current… beyond contempt! I even wondered if Zhao Junsheng’s idea actually worked, if I didn’t know that he didn’t dare to screw over his own boss behind the scene, I would have gone to take his company apart in anger! Wait, it seems like that is my company!

In the end, I couldn’t help but dial Zhao Junsheng’s number.

“Uncle Zhao, the method you taught me didn’t work!”

“What’s Yanyan’s attitude towards you right now?”

“Beyond contempt!”

“That’s right!”

“That’s right? What’s right? It’s right when she’s beyond disgusted with me?”

“Now, you don’t understand. Understanding a woman’s heart is like trying to find a needle in the ocean! The more she dislikes you, the more it means that you are in her heart, it’s only bad if she’s emotionless towards you!”

“Is that so? Then I’ll try again!”

“Kay, then call me again when she slowly starts to not dislike you! I’ll tell you what to do!”

“Okay! I understand!”

I hung up the phone, and couldn’t resist laughing. There is actually a father that teaches other people to pursue his daughter, haha!

Since Zhao Yanyan got into a car crash not many days after reporting in, most students didn’t remember her. Although Zhao Yanyan was unusually beautiful, most people wore camouflage clothing and a military cap, so they couldn’t tell at all.

When Zhao Yanyan returned to Huaxia University to go to school, she immediately brought about a commotion in Huaxia University! Even students in the second and third year ran over to the entrance of the first year’s Computing classroom to have a look at this beauty that had a chance to become the new school beauty of Huaxia University.

Yet, a shameless fellow would always appear at this beauty’s side. Regardless of it being class time, or lunch time, this fellow was always around her. Initially, a lot of the male students were very angry and wanted to teach this shameless fellow a lesson, but they were often beaten to a pulp but this fellow. As time went on, nobody went to cause trouble for him, they would only despise him in their hearts.

Of course, this fellow was definitely me! How could I possibly let other people appear at Zhao Yanyan’s side!

At the start, Zhao Yanyan ignored me always pestering her, and continued to act as she please. Yet, as time passed on, Zhao Yanyan couldn’t handle it any more.

“Say, what exactly do you want to do! You’re always behind me!” Zhao Yanyan finally could not resist it, and spoke to me.

“Of course it’s to pick you up!” I said shamelessly. My purpose was already crystal clear, it would be bad if I actually tried to say it in other ways.

“You…” Zhao Yanyan didn’t think I would be so direct either, and so didn’t know what to say.

“What about me, isn’t it better if I’m honest. Am I supposed to say that I’m just going the same way as you? You wouldn’t believe me even if I said that!” I shrugged an dsaid. I understood Zhao Yanyan too well, I knew exactly what she was thinking.

“…” Zhao Yanyan became completely speechless, then finally said. “Then just follow…”

Every lunchtime, I would go and fight with Zhao Yanyan to buy her meal. At the start, this chick wouldn’t agree no matter what, but in the end, she couldn’t defeat me, so she tried to give me the lunch money. Of course I wouldn’t accept it!

In the end, Zhao Yanyan just stopped arguing. After class every noon, she would go to the canteen with me and find a way to seat to wait for me to buy the meal.

I snickered in my heart, was I not far away from success? At least Zhao Yanyan didn’t despise me as much as she did at the start. However, I still had a self-conscience, I knew that although Zhao Yanyan didn’t despise me, she was still far from liking me!

She just felt rather helpless towards me, since I wouldn’t go away no matter what she did, she might as well just let me be. At least this way, she had someone caring for her every day. The felling wasn’t bad. When Zhao Yanyan watched me walk in front every time school ends, and help her open a path, there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, it seemed very familiar, but she wasn’t willing to think about ti.

On the other hand, I would sit by Zhao Yanyan’s side every lesson. Of course, at the start, in order to be lazy, I chose the computing faculty. Ignoring that fact that I already studied it once during my previous life in university, I was also in the computing industry in my previous life, and so the computing knowledge I had was deeper than ones I learnt now by several times!

“Is it about Yanyan?” My heart immediately tensed up. I know that Liu Yue calling me right now was most likely about Zhao Yanyan, that was because Liu Yue was rather independent, for things related to the business, she would only tell me the situation of the revenue every year, and not mention other things to me.

“Yes… Zhao Yanyan woke up, but she…” Liu Yue paused for a moment.

“What happened? Just say it!” I asked anxiously. My voice subconsciously loudened by several times, causing the people around me to stare at me.

“But she doesn’t remember you anymore!” Liu Yue said with a sigh.

“Don’t remember me? What do you mean!” I asked anxiously.

“When I mentioned you, she was completely blank, but she remembers everyone else… The doctor said that the shockwave to her brain caused her to have partial amnesia…” Liu Yue explained.

I received two news at the same time, a good news and a bad news.

I don’t know if I should be happy or depressed at this moment.

However, Zhao Yanyan being safe is my biggest comfort! No matter what, I’ll hurry to the hospital first!

Although Liu Yue said that she would get someone from the car shop to come and get me at the airport, I couldn’t wait any longer, and so I hurried towards the hospital after stopping a cab.

After I got to the entrance to the ward, I hard clear laughter from within. Who else was it apart from Zhao Yanyan!

My sullen mood immediately lightened, I don’t know why, but I felt a bit more relaxed at this moment. Perhaps, this is the feeling of truly loving someone.

I knocked on the door and walked into the ward. When I saw Zhao Yanyan, who was smiling happily as she chatted with Liu Yue, I really had an urge to rush up and hold her in my embrace, but I restrained myself.

When she saw me enter, she frowned and looked at me. She felt like the person in front of her was unusually familiar, but she couldn’t remember him. As for Liu Yue, she quickly said, “Liu Lei, you came back!”

“Oh! So you’re Liu Lei! Liu Yue has always mentioned you these few days, you must be Liu Yue’s boyfriend, right?” Zhao Yanyan smiled at me.

I faint… She really doesn’t recognize me…

Hearing Zhao Yanyan say that she kept on mentioning Liu Lei, Liu Yue’s face couldn’t help but heat up. When she heard Zhao Yanyan say that Liu Lei is her boyfriend, her face immediately blushed. She didn’t know why, but even though she felt that it was clearly wrong, as if she was taking advantage of Zhao Yanyan, she couldn’t help herself.

Seeing Liu Yue blush, I couldn’t help but sigh silently. However, I didn’t have the main d to consider other matters right now.

Looking at Zhao Yanyan’s innocent look, I suppressed the urge of telling her what happened before. I know that even if I said it all, she can’t accept it all right now. However, I did have to draw a clear line with Liu Yue for now, or else it would be even harder for Zhao Yanyan to accept me. Thus I smiled and said, “Hehe, we’re just normal friends.”

The moment I said that, Liu Yue expression darkened a little, but it returned to normal very quickly. Zhao Yanyan did not notice, but since I was extremely sensitive, I was able to feel Liu Yue’s change, it’s just that, what was I supposed to do right now?

“About that… I’m going out to buy something, Yanyan didn’t eat breakfast yet…” Liu Yue also felt the awkward atmosphere, and found an excuse to leave the ward.

“Yanyan…” Seeing that Liu Yue left, I was unable to suppress the feelings within my heart, so I said passionately as I sat down beside Zhao Yanyan.

Zhao Yanyan felt rather wrong about my way of addressing her. She frowned and said in displeasure, “I don’t know you, call me Zhao Yanyan, we aren’t very familiar with each other…”

“I… Do you really not remember me?” I asked without giving up.

“What’s wrong with you, I’ve never seen you before!” Although Zhao Yanyan just woke up and felt a bit blurry, she didn’t have such a person in her memory. From her perspective, this person was clearly trying to get close to her with a thick face, and he even called her “Yanyan” intimately!

“Yanyan, if you don’t remember me, then can you remember who you spend the three years of high school with?” I continued to ask.

Three years of high school? Zhao Yanyan tried her hardest to think, but did not recall anything. Although she remembers tads and bits of some things, it was as if she couldn’t recall something important. However, she just thought that this was a normal case of just waking up, the doctor had said that it was normal, so she didn’t treat it as anything. She never would have thought that she would completely forget someone.

“Please stop talking? I just woke up, the doctor told me not to use my brain too much, but I can tell you, I really don’t remember someone like you!” Zhao Yanyan said mercilessly.

“Yanyan, actually… actually we’re a couple!” I couldn’t suppress my emotions anymore and finally spoke out the truth. I continued, “Yanyan, did you forget, we were deskmates in high school, we learnt about computers at Shaoniangong together. Your first time lying to your home was sneaking out to the theatres with me, which was where we had our first kiss, also, we went to Yanjing to enter the National Teenage Computing Competition, and in the hotel we…”

“Enough, haha!” Zhao Yanyan interrupted my words and laughed coldly, “Liu Lei-tongxue, don’t you find this hilarious? This is so old, pursuing a girl using this method is too outdated!”

The words “Liu Lei-tongxue” caused my heart to feel cold. This means that Zhao Yanyan had completely drawn a boundary between her and I. She actually treated my words as a way of pursuing her! However, thinking about it, it did seem like the plot from some third-rated tv show!

I knew it was pointless to continue, so could only shut up.

At this moment, Liu Yue returned. When she saw Zhao Yanyan and I look in different directions, acting extremely awkward, she said, “I bought three people’s portion, let’s eat together!”

Coincidentally, I didn’t eat anything since I just got off the plane, and was truly a bit hungry, so I didn’t act courteous. I just received the chopsticks and started eating. This caused Zhao Yanyan to frown, as she said to me, “Why are you so thick-skinned, you don’t feel awkward at all!”

The moment I said that, not only I, but even Liu Yue felt troubled! However, Liu Yue didn’t say anything, since she couldn’t help in this situation either.

Before we finished eating, Uncle Zhao pushed open the door. Seeing that I was here, he said happily, “Xiao Liu, you’re here! Did you finish taking care of the things in Hong Kong?”

“Yeah, Uncle Zhao, I handed it to the branch office manager, Zhang Jiang, to handle,” I said.

“Dad, who is this person?” Suddenly, Zhao Yanyan interrupted Uncle Zhao and my conversation and asked while pointing at me. She seemed to be very displeased with the familiarity between Zhao Junsheng and I.

“Yanyan, you…” Zhao Junsheng looked at his darling daughter in confusion as he said strangely, “What did you say?”

I forcefully held back my laughter. Guo Qing is truly able to b̲u̲l̲l̲s̲h̲i̲t̲, don’t I know what he’s like when he was at school! What’s more, if he dared to hit Ye Xiaoxiao, would I have let him off!

“Hai hai! Alright now, let’s stop fighting. The Underworld -Meeting is a meeting to solve issues peacefully, you might as well get your subordinates to fight outside instead of fight like this!” Uncle Xing waved his hand. He wasn’t offending either side like this.

Hearing that, Boss Yao returned to his seat in anger with a savage light still shining out from his eyes.

“Alright everyone, let’s talk about any issues we have. No getting physical! The main purpose of this Underworld meeting is so that we can discuss about the splitting of territory properly…” said Eleder Xing.

“How do you want to split it? Does everyone want to quit Hong Kong and leave the territory to us, the Three Rock Gang?” Hearing that they were wanted to split the territory, they understood that they got envious that his territory is large, and to force him to give some up due to them having more people.

Seeing that Guo Qing was so cocky, they were all furious and looked towards the Azure Gang. From their perspective, if someone acted so cockily in front of the Azure Gang, the Azure Gang would definitely not be fine with it. To their surprise, the boss of the Azure Gang, Zhou Feng, acted like he didn’t hear it and just sat their leisurely.

These people thought about it for a moment, perhaps it was because of the Three Rock Gang being rather powerful recently, so the Azure Gang wasn’t willing to make them the enemy. However, since they (the other gangs) had so much people, would they be afraid of the Three Rock Gang? They believed that if they fought with the Three Rock Gang, the Azure Gang wouldn’t say anything, right!

“What’s there to talk about! I’ll just say it directly, ever since a mainland gang came to Hong Kong, our good days have come to an end and have never felt peaceful!” Boss Li, who had a bad temper, stood up and said.

“Yeah, our subordinates grabbed two girls to play on our own territory, but then a certain gamg’s people rushed over and kicked them into eunuchs!” Another boss that didn’t say anything also said suddenly.

“Boss Chen, your Bamboo Snake Gang did cross the line. What we should avoid most is r̲a̲p̲e̲. Then again, there is the police to deal with this, how’s that the business of a certain gang? Are they national security?” Another boss said.

“…”

Hearing their rambles, I looked at the people that were acting. It was clear that they had already discussed it before hand! They aimed to target the Three Rock Gang in order to force Guo Qing to give somethings up since they have more people, however, their plan was not going to succeed!

“Excuse me, is the certain gang you’re talking about us, the Three Rock Gang? It seems like you guys, the bosses of various gangs, seemed to have blabbered on for quite some time!” Guo Qing looked at these clowns and laughed coldly.

“Yes! That’s right, it’s you guys, the Three Rock Gang!” This time, everyone there except the Azure Gang and Elder Xing all answered together.

“Oh? Is that so, so it seems like us, the Three Rock Gang, got in the way so much… Since its like that, then I think…” Guo Qing paused for a moment, then said. “Then everyone just stop being in Hong Kong, please excuse yourselves!”

“What? What the f̲u̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g hell do you mean? Do you mean that you’re going to go against all of us gangs?” Hearing Guo Qing said that, the bosses of various gangs immediately got pissed off. They all stood up and pointed at Guo Qing.

“Whatever, weren’t we enemies before?” Guo Qing said like he didn’t care at all.

“F̲u̲c̲k̲! Bros, get the people and murder then!” Boss Li, who had a terrible temper, roared.

A group of black suited hulks holding assault rifles immediately rushed in. However, the target of these people aren’t us, but the bosses that were badmouthing us!

“Don’t move, whoever move dies!” The black suited hulk in the lead said coldly.

“Who… Who are you people? The spies we placed near the Three Rock Gang’s headquarters didn’t report any news in?” Elder Xing was rather calm, and so he asked these people. He had already sent spies to the Three Rock Gang’s headquarters and different properties, one the Three Rock Gang makes any moves, he can get prepared beforehand. However, there wasn’t any news before at all!

At this moment, the Azure Gang’s boss, Zhou Feng, who haven’t spoken till now, directly walked in front of me and said, “Director Liu, what should we do next?”

“Do whatever needs to be done,” I said plainly. Sometimes, you can’t be soft when you’re dealing with these people. What’s more, leaving these people were would just be harmful.

“Do it!” Zhou Feng waved his hand, and gun shots instantly rang out. The group of bosses that were still pissed off just a moment before instantly became a group of corpses. The only one left was Elder Xing, who was sitting wide-eyed at the center of the meeting room.

“What, are you very confused? Are you wondering why am I standing together with the Three Rock Gang, even though we were complete enemies a month ago?” Zhou Feng smiled towards Elder Xing and said.

Elder Xing nodded stiffly.

“The reason is simple, the boss behind the Three Rock Gang and us is the same person!” With that, Zhou Feng said to the subordinate beside him. “Send him on his way, he knows too much!”

A gun shot rang out, and Elder Xing fell onto the floor. I didn’t say anything while looking at the room of dead people. The laws in Hong Kong was different from the mainland. Fights between mbs happened rather often, and the police couldn’t do anything about it. What’s more, these people were trash, each one dead is one less to deal with.

I got Guo Qing and Zhou Feng to deal with cleaning up together. Within a night, Hong Kong’s underworld was completely reshuffled, since the other gangs lost their bosses, they were absorbed by the Three Rock Gang and Azure Gang very quickly.

As for why the Azure Gang stood on my side, that was simple. Chen’s Corporation is the Azure Gang’s largest shareholder. Now that Chen’s is under my wing, Zhou Feng naturally had to pay his respects to me! When he found out that I am the boss behind the scenes for the Three Rock Gang, Zhou Feng was shocked for a long way. He felt like they were unable to fight against the Three Rock Gang, now that they shared the same boss, they might as well make peace. I also ordered Guo Qing to not attack the Azure Gang.

After all, the underworld has its meaning of existence. There will always be groups that wanted drugs or prostitutes, you can’t ban it completely, that’s why I decided to leave these industries to the Azure Gang.

After dealing with it all, I should also return to school. It did take more than a week’s worth of time here, the military training at school is over already, and class has officially started.

When I got off the plane after arriving in Yanjing, the phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Liu Yue.

“Liu Lei, did you come back?” Liu Yue’s special voice rang out form the phone.

“Aye, I just got off the plane and turned on the phone when your call came through,” I said.

“There’s a good news, and a bad news…” Liu Yue hesitated for a moment, then said.

“Alright, with this, my research is not far away from success!” Although Sun Sikong was a bit disappointed in me not agreeing to him being my assistant, seeing that I agreed to help him research it, he was still very happy!

The following thing was the construction of the lab. I got Du Xiaowei to buy an island in international waters. This way, it would become a private territory protected by international laws. Without the owner’s permission, nobody can just go on the island! Although the price was very expensive, it was nothing for me, the richest man in the world.

As for the safety issues, I got Du Xiaowei to send a team of faithful direct disciples to protect Sun Sikong’s safety and to prevent the information of the lab being stolen! Ever since I taught the martial arts I created to Du Xiaowei, he taught it to his mercenaries, and of course, some of the more important things like the development of the mental powers was only taught to his direct disciples. Even though their mental powers was like a droplet of water compared to the ocean when compared to me, it was far too easy to deal with normal people!

Don’t say that the security is way too tight, what I was researching here is advance technology on Earth or even in the universe. Although there are no more pirates in this era, there are still a lot of special agents! I don’t want these things to leak out too early!

This private army that was in charge of security was absolutely loyal, Du Xiaowei had already added a mental mark into their brain while he was teaching them out to develop the powers. The mark told them to be absolutely loyal towards Liu Lei and Du Xiaowei, if there was conflicts between the their orders, then Liu Lei’s orders will be the final order.

I was very moved when he did this, he seems like Du Xiaowei did respect me, the martial great-uncle quite a bit.

As for the construction of the laboratory, I used the Animasian’s data as reference and designed it with Sun Sikong together.

Seeing that I prepared everything so nicely for him, Sun Sikong was very glad. He didn’t care whether this was an island with no one on him, it was fine as long as he could do research.

At the same time, I chose some of the information that the Animasians gave me and printed it out for Sun Sikong. When he saw it, he acted like he got some sort of treasure and refused to let go of it!

I ordered Du Xiaowei’s disciples to try and satisfy Sun Sikong’s needs as much as possible and left a card with five billion in. Then, I also left my phone number to Sun Sikong.

After doing all that, the Underworld Meeting was about to start as well. Of course, before that, I had something very important to do…

The Underworld Alliance was afraid of the Three Rock Gang not going, and so, they deliberately got someone to send another invitation over. At the time, I was actually very confused about why the Underworld Alliance was so thoughtful?!

Don’t think that the negotiation and fights between mobs all happened at night. That was something that would only happen in novels or on tv. The Underworld Meeting this time was no difference from a meeting between government officials, it was set at nine o’clock in the morning at Tianchen Hotel’s meeting room. Tianchen Hotel was opened by a rich person in Hong Kong and was no affiliated with any gangs. The location as set here in order to make it fair.

In the morning, after eating breakfast, I got on his extra-long Hongqi with Guo Qing. The driver was Ma Qiang. We didn’t bring any other subordinates there since more people didn’t help in that sort of situation. What’s more, if fighting actually started, I can do it by myself.

Just after entering the hotel, I saw a row of people in suits standing by the door as if there wasn’t anyone there. The mobs in Hong Kong were very cocky and very open, they did hide around like the gangs in mainland.

When the people at the door saw us come over, they immediately reached out to stop us, “We booked this place already, it’s not open today!”

“B̲a̲s̲t̲a̲r̲d̲! Are you blind!” Ma Qing immediately got unable after seeing them dare to block off boss and chief. He immediately went up and gave the person a flying kick, causing him to fall over, then he threw the invitation onto the floor.

The suited man had wanted to explode, but once they saw the name on the invitation, he immediately stopped! The Three Rock Gang in Hong Kong was famous for being kind and caring towards the civilians and merciless towards other gangs!

Thus, the other black suited people quickly turned respectful, “So, it’s the arrival of Boss Guo, and Ma-ge, sorry, sorry, please come in!”

They didn’t know my identity, so they just thought that I was an accompanying subordinate. Yet, I didn’t mind.

When we arrived at the meeting room, I noticed that twenty something people were inside already. When they saw us come in, they glared at us predatorily. Why did I feel like we were lambs entering a tiger’s mouth? However, we seem to be wolves in a sheep’s skin…

“Aiya, Boss Guo, you made us wait so long. Is the Three Rock Gang so big that you’re not taking us small gangs seriously?” Just as we entered the door, a fatty said sinisterly.

“Yeah, that’s right, I’m not taking you seriously,” Guo Qing looked at the fatty and said plainly.

The fatty thought that he could insult Guo Qing a bit, but he didn’t think that he was insulted instead.

Ma Qiang ignored the other people, and got two clean chairs for Guo Qing and I to sit down on. Then, he stood behind us.

Ma Qiang’s action caused the other people to start silently guessing my identity. He was already a boss in Hong Kong, it was natural for him to be respectful towards Guo Qing, but what was the identity of the other person?

After we sat down, the elder on the seat of honor coughed twice and said, “Alright, the boss from every gang is here. Let’s start the meaning! It might be the first time for some people to participate in the Underworld Meeting, so I’ll introduce myself. I am the chairman of the Hong Kong Underworld Alliance in, everyone calls me Uncle Xing!”

“Ai, back in the days, we all got our territory with a knife by knife, gun by gun. It’s the peaceful era now, even young people can be bosses!” Another boss continued.

Guo Qing didn’t even look at that fellow and said, “Yeah, it’s a peaceful era. I think Boss Yao’s subordinates all lack training now. Last time, a hundred something people were got hospitalized by ten odd of my subordinates, mine didn’t even manage to warm up.”

“You!” Boss Yao instantly went speechless. Thinking about what Guo Qing said was truth, he immediately got pissed and slammed down on the table. Then he stood up and pointed at Guo Qing, “You little b̲a̲s̲t̲a̲r̲d̲, I’m telling you, don’t get full of…”

Before he finished, a cup flew over and smashed on his front teeth, instantly knocking off several of his front teeth. Boss Yao covered his bleeding gum and stuttered out something that couldn’t be heard.

Guo Qing was the one that threw the cup. After that, he said, “Sorry, when I was in school, whenever the teacher points at me, I’ll get angry, and throw something on the table in reflex, so it became a habit! How about this, later on, when the meeting is over, I’ll get someone to put on a few golden teeth for you?”
