Chapter 31 – Test



“But this fifty-percent is only the profit form this version, if there is a future version, I can only promise that I will prioritize working with your company over other ones assuming that you all are providing the same conditions,” I reminded him.

Zhao Junsheng didn’t think I still had this method! However, the experience from my previous life tells me that, the rights to the future versions must be in my own hands, this is a chicken that can lay golden eggs, only if I firmly control the rights to the future versions, I would be able to have absolute authority in front of Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng looked at me in surprise, he wasn’t able to imagine that this would be said from the mouth of a sixteen years old, this both shocked him and intrigued him.

However Zhao Junsheng didn’t say anything much in the end, and just looked at me, only after a long while did he speak again, this time, it made me really surprised.

“Fine, then that’s that, I’ll get my secretary to draft the contract, and then we’ll sign it later,” Zhao Junsheng said.

I didn’t think Zhao Junsheng would answer my condition so easily, this was completely different form his attitude at the start. What caused him to change so much? Or was he just testing me from the start?

Although I clearly understood the value of my input method, but fifty-percent was still a bit too high, I had thought Zhao Junsheng would negotiate the price with me a bit more, I didn’t think he would make the decision so quickly.

Very soon, Zhao Junsheng’s secretary drafted two copies of the contract, I looked over it, there wasn’t any major problems, my additional condition was also clearly stated on the contract. I signed my name on it, Zhao Junsheng did the same and then stamped it, then gave me a copy, and got the secretary to put away the other one.

“Xiao Liu, you didn’t eat before you came right?” Zhao Junshng asked.

“No, Xu-laoshi called me to tell me to come over when I just got home,” I answered honestly.

“Then Zhao Yanyan didn’t come with you?” Zhao Junsheng used a very normal tone and asked.

“No, she went home first,” I answered casually. However just when the words left my mouth, I noticed something amiss. “How do you know Zhao Yanyan?” I asked.

Zhao Junsheng slammed the table and roared, “Brat, you’ve got guts, you managed to got my darling daughter and you’re still asking me who I am?”

Zhao Yanyan, Zhao Junsheng! ****, there can’t be such coincidence in this world right? This person is actually Zhao Yanyan’s father? In other words, my father-in-law? From Zhao Junsheng’s attitude, it seems like he knew Zhao Yanyan and my relationship from the start. Then why didn’t he mention anything when I first come in? Or mention it when we were signing the contract, then use it to threaten me, I might actually give the input method to him without taking anything in return. Now that everything’s sorted, why did he suddenly mention it?

“Oh, it’s bofu!” I forced a smile.

“Heh! Don’t try to act close with me. If you want our cooperation to continue, then stay away from Yanyan,” Zhao Junsheng said coldly.

“I’ll give you another ten percent of the profit, leave Yanyan,” Zhao Junsheng was expressionless.

“Hehe, does Uncle Zhao think that your daughter is only worth so much?” I laughed coldly.

“Twenty percent!’

I looked at him without saying a word.

“Thirty percent, that’s my bottom line!”

I still didn’t say anything.

“Heh, don’t not recognizing kindness! Fine, our cooperation is now terminated!” Zhao Junsheng looked away after saying that.

“Hehe, Uncle Zhao, you thought that I was a child that doesn’t understand anything right? Terminated cooperation? Once the contract is signed, then it will be effective legally, do you think you can terminated it with just a word? But ——“ I took out the contract from my pocket, and continued, “But since you don’t want to cooperate, then I won’t make it hard for you, I can even gift the input method to you without anything in return! But, remember, telling me to leave Zhao Yanyan, that is impossible! I truly feel ashamed for Zhao Yanyan for having a father like you, did you think I would leave Yanyan for a bit of cash? Dream on, I can tell you right now, Yanyan is priceless to me!” I casually threw the contract onto the floor, and leisurely stopped out of the office.

“Ai! Young people are just impulsive, how am I supposed to be comfortable handing my daughter to you!” Zhao Junsheng’s mocking tone could be heard from behind me.

What? Handing his daughter to me? My heart shook, what show is Zhao Junsheng putting on! Suddenly, I understood everything, this was all Zhao Junsheng’s trap from the start, he was testing me. At the start, he was testing if I had the ability to support his daughter, then it was to test the position that his daughter had in my heart. This old fox, I swore in my heart.

“Okay, Uncle Zhao, your show’s over, I wonder if I, your prospective son-in-law, passed? I turned around and said with a smile. Haha, I could finally feel avenged, I was really looking forward to seeing Zhao Junsheng’s expression after his plan gets seen through.

As expected, Zhao Junsheng’s mouth was wide open, and only being shocked for a long while did he say, “So you saw through it?”

“Uncle Zhao, if your goal was truly to make me leave Yanyan, then I think you didn’t have to spend so much on signing a contract with me,” I said calmly. After seeing through Zhao Junsheng’s thoughts, I held the initiative, so I didn’t have to drag it on.

“That’s right! The young man has a future,” Zhao Junsheng said with a smile. “I don’t want to interfere too much in the things of you young people. However, everything has a limit, you’re still young, I don’t want you two to cause anything for me. As for what I’m talking about, Xiao Liu you’re smart so you should understand.”

“Ahhh ——“ Cold sweat started dripping from me, of course I understand what he was talking about, but if I tell this dad-in-law in front of me that I already ate Yanyan, would he murder me here and now?

“Be better to Yanyan, I won’t let you go if I find you that you bullied her!” Thank god that Zhao Junsheng didn’t notice my abnormality and continued.

“I understand, Uncle Zhao. My heart is true to Yanyan, I will take care of her for a life time,” I quickly said seriously.

“En, okay,” Zhao Junsheng looked at his watch and said. “I have a meeting later, so let’s leave it here.”

I walked out of the front door of Tianheng Computers, and thought about what just happened. Zhao Yanyan’s father was actually Tianheng Computers’s general manager, was this fortune or misfortune? But from Zhao Junsheng’s current attitude, this may not be a bad thing. Firstly, Zhao Junsheng’s company had the same nature as the industry I worked in in my previous life, this improved my starting position by quite a bit. Secondly, and most importantly, is that if I receive Zhao Junsheng’s support, then Zhao Yanyan and I don’t have to hide when we’re together.

Chapter 30 – Buying it all with Fifty-thousand



To be honest, I want to spend more time with Zhao Yanyan too, but as an adult, I knew that you can’t be impulsive, if we allow Zhao Yanyan’s parents notice our relationship too early because of a moment’s greediness, I’m sure normal parents would interfere, this would undoubtedly become a huge obstacle for Zhao Yanyan and my relationship.

Although I could be certain right now that Zhao Yanyan will not leave me, I was not willing to take a risk. It’s all over if her parents get agitated and make her transfer schools, this was something easily done for Zhao Yanyan’s grandpa who was a provisional official.

I got Geezer Xu’s call when I just got home, “Xiao Liu, why didn’t you pick up the phone?”
“What is it, Xu-laoshi, I just got home!” I asked weirdly.

“Do you have time in the afternoon?” Geezer Xu asked anxiously.

“Yeah, why?” I said.

“Come to the Tianheng Computers at Number 4 Fazhang Road , Director Zhao is very interested in your program, and wants to talk about the specifics with you,” Geezer Xu said.

“Okay, I’ll be right there!” I said excitedly! The results of my hard work has finally been recognized!

“En, directly find Director Zhao after coming here, Zhao Junsheng, I have to rush home, or else that chick Ruoyun would think that I ran out to drink again!” Geezer Xu said with a wry smile.

“Okay, then I’ll go over immediately,” I hung up the phone, and went downstairs.

The address that Geezer Xu gave me was really easy to find, I could see Tianheng Electronic Computer Technology Limited’s large signage.

I went into the company, the receptionist at the door stopped me,“Little student, who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for Director Zhao,” I said.

“Do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked.

“No, but Director Zhao asked me to come,” I replied.

“Okay, let me ask,” the receptionist dialed a number on the phone, “Hello, Director Zhao, I’m Xiao Li, there is a student saying that you asked him to come?”

After hanging up the phone, the receptionist asked me, “Are you Xu-laoshi’s student?”

I nodded,

“Then there’s no problem, I’ll take you to Director Zhao’s office,” after that , the receptionist took me to the door to a room, and said to me, “You can go in now, Director Zhao is waiting for you inside.”

I knocked n the door, a middle-aged man’s voice came out from within, “Please come in!”

I opened the door and asked, “Is this Director Zhao’s office?”

The middle-aged man momentarily blanked when he saw me, then immediately returned to now. He looked at me then said, “Hello, my surname is Zhao, Zhao Junsheng, the general manager of Tianheng Computers, how should I address you?”

“Director Zhao, I’m called Liu Lei,” I said.

Zhao Junsheng nodded without a sound, then said to me, “Okay, Xiao Liu. Don’t call me Director Zhao, call me Uncle Zhao, it doesn’t count as me taking advantage of you with my age right!”

“How could it!” I said, “Then I’ll call you Uncle Zhao.”

Zhao Junsheng got a chair for me, then got me to sit with him beside the computer, and asked me, “Xiao Liu, did you really make this input method?”

I nodded, then asked, “Is there a problem?”

“No,” Zhao Junsheng shook his head, and said, “I just wanted to double check, if I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I would find it really difficult to believe that a high school student wrote an input method like this!”

“You flatter me Uncle Zhao, I just fooled around without anything to do,” I replied embarrassedly.

“Don’t be humble now, Xiao Liu, I have faith in your input method. Name a price, how much are you selling it for?” Zhao Junsheng asked.

“Then how much do you think it’s worth?” I questioned back. This was my natural reaction, I was already an old fox in business, obviously I would be natural during incidents like this.

“How about this, Xiao Liu. A buyout price, fifty thousand kuai. I will buy the entirety of the input method’s copyright, and want the rights to all the following versions,” Zhao Junsheng said confidently. Fifty-thousand kuai was already not a small sum in the software market of 1994, although this isn’t Zhao Junsheng’s limit, from his perspective, this money was already an astronomical figure in the eyes of a high school student.

“How about this, Uncle Zhao, I’ll calculate a sum for you,” I replied without any reaction. “My input method is currently the most convenient to use, and the easiest to learn Chinese input method, I believe Uncle Zhao is more familiar about this than me. If this input method was put onto the market, I believe that it would be able to take over the market really quickly, as long as advertisements are done properly. I’m sure Uncle Zhao understands what kind of people the majority of the WPS users are, asking these government officials to spend time to learn Wubi, do you think that’s possible? My input method is different, anyone who knows pinyin can use it, especially to those people whose pronunciation aren’t standard, this is definitely the most suitable input method for them. For example, let’s look at the word “chi rou”, I think a lot of people whose pronunciation aren’t standard would read it as “chi you”, and my input method is able to make a judgment on which character it actually is usually the characters before and after for these characters that are easily mispronounced. I believe this input method will completely replace any input method on the market once it is released.”

“I know about all this, this is why I have faith in this input method. But what is it that you’re trying to tell me?” Zhao Junsheng gazed at me.

“It’s nothing special, all I want to say is the value of the input method and the profit it will bring far surpasses this fifty-thousand kuai, perhaps even more than ten, a hundred, or a thousand fifty-thousand kuai if the following versions are included,” I replied slowly.

“Then how much do you want?” Zhao Junsheng started to test for my bottom line.

“Fifty percent of the net profit,” I said calmly.

“Fifty percent? What a daylight robbery! Speaking about conditions with me, Zhao Junsheng, and not thinking about your own ability. I will spend a hundred-thousand at most, not a penny more,” Zhao Junsheng said with indignation.

“I have no intention of forcing you to work with me, I believe that if I sell the software directly to Kingsoft, then they might be more interest,” I said in a reasonable manner, completely disregarding his attitude.

“Good! Good! Good!’ Zhao Junsheng said good three times in a row, “Heroes truly comes from youths!”

“Uncle Zhao is flattering me. I am only a maker that wants my creation to make the most profit,” I continued to say with a smile.

“Okay, then fifty-percent it is!” Zhao Junsheng decided.

Chapter 29 – Who’s the Beauty?



I saw Xu Ruo Yun’s look of surprise when I got out of the door, but truth be told, the only little girl at this age I was interested in is Zhao Yanyan, the others just didn’t do it. Although Zhao Yanyan was also sixteen years-old, I had unspeakable feelings for her, in hindsight it might have been because I mixed my adult feels in it as well.

During the award ceremony, my program was decided as the champion without argument, Xu Ruo Yan’s work, which got second place, was also a picture, but her one was black and white, from the detail of the pictures, her one was much crude. The remaining work by other people were very simple, most of them were just a logo or a small object, even more people just had text.

Seeing my work, Zhao Yanyan had an expression of unhappiness, and pinched my leg with her hands, “This picture is so familiar! Tell me, who’s the beauty? What relationship does she have to do with you!”

I faint, I didn’t think Zhao Yanyan would ask me that, how was I supposed to explain it! However, Zhao Yanyan didn’t give up, and was hell bent on making me tell her who the person is.

Finally, since I couldn’t do anything else, I made up a name and situation. Yet I could tell that Zhao Yanyan didn’t believe me, and kept on gazing at the picture with a suspicious look in her eyes.

I monopolized both first prizes in this competition, Geezer Xu, who went with me onto the stage to receive the prize, had a face full of happiness, his smiling wrinkly face was like a big fagao.⌈1

In the end, I didn’t get anything except two certificates, I already lost interest in these kind of things used to please children. On the other hand, Geezer Xu relentlessly got me to hold up the certificates to take photos with me. I knew that as long as nothing happens these pictures will be hung in the lobby of Shao Nian Gong, to be used as promotion and advertisement.

The copy of the program that I coded was taken away by Zhao Yanyan, I asked her why, and she told me that she wanted it as a keepsake.

I kept sweating⌈2⌋, from my test paper to the bed sheet in the motel to today’s program copy, does this chick have some collection interest.

We took the train back to Songjiang that night, during the journey, Xu Ruo Yun’s attitude towards me improved a lot, and her attitude towards Zhao Yanyan was unbelievable. The two chicks talked continuously the entire journey, and occasional let out sounds of laughter. I really don’t understand women’s thoughts.

Seeing that his own granddaughter became more open, Geezer Xu was so happy that he couldn’t even close hismouth. The only person that suffered was me, because Zhao Yanyan left me in at the side. I could only talk a little with Geezer Xu, what was the most infuriating was that Geezer Xu always tried to bring to topic to where I have learnt computing before and the sorts, I perfunctorily answered all of those.

However the geezer didn’t get the hint, I was already answering him so perfunctorily yet he’s still asking, it forced me to change the topic, “Oh yeah, Xu-laoshi, I wrote a little program, and want to sell it to a software company, do you have any contacts?”

“You wrote a software? What’s it for?” Geezer Xu didn’t believe that I could code a software that could sell for money.

“En, it is a Chinese input method add-on for WPS, and is better than the original input method, I believe if it was advertised properly, it’s popularity will be over fifty percent,” I said confidently.

“Ah!” Geezer Xu exclaimed, he knows about input methods, normal people, including himself, didn’t hold the ability to produce it.

“Can I look at it?” Geezer Xu asked excitedly, he knew that if I got any results, he, as the teacher, would also have the right to show off.

“Sure, when we go back, it’s in Shao Nian Gong’s computer,” I said.

“If the input method is really as good as you say, I can help you promote it a bit, I have contacts with several software companies in both our city and Yanjing,” Geezer Xu said.

“Then thank you!” I said politely.

“I’m your teacher, what are you being so courteous for!” Geezer Xu said with a smile.

I thought, although Geezer Xu didn’t teach me any knowledge, he is more or less an elder in the computing industry, with a living resource like him, I’ll could definitely use his help stepping into the computing industry in the future.

Thus I respectably said, “Then I’ll trouble you!”

When I showed the input method I programmed to Geezer Xu, Geezer Xu couldn’t be more surprised, his mouth was wide open, just like a frog.

“Wait, Xiao Liu. I’ll immediately get in contact with a friend at a software company for you, I didn’t think that I, Xu Jinde’s, student will also have a day where they succeed!” Geezer Xu didn’t mind me on the side, and hurriedly ran out to make a call.

“Director Zhao, it’s me old Xu!” Geezer Xu said into the phone.

“Director Xu, what do something you need?” the person on the other side of the phone called Director Zhao said enthusiastically.

“I have a student, he made a software, and wants to find a company to work with, so I thought of you, Director Zhao!” Geezer Xu said.

“Aiya, Xu-laoshi! I’m your student, don’t Director Zhao, Director Zhao. If it wasn’t for you teaching me knowledge in the past, could I work in the computing industry? I wouldn’t have my success without you!” Director Zhao said humbly, “What software is it? What’s so special about a one that a student made?”

“Hehe, you’re underestimating me, not looking at who’s student it is, weren’t you my student before?” Xu Jinde praised himself.

“That’s true, what program did he code?” Director Zhao asked embarrassedly.

“An input method, I see a good future for it!” Geezer Xu said.

“Okay, since I have time later, take it over for me to have a lot, and I can also treat you to a meal,” Director Zhao said.

“Fine, that’s a promise. Wait for me at the office!’ Geezer Xu hung up the phone happily.

“Xiao Liu, I’m going to take your program to Tianheng Computers in our city for them to have a look, the Director there is also one of my students in the past, there should be a chance for this,” Geezer Xu said to me after returning.

“Okay, then please help me laoshi, I’ll go back first and wait for your information,” I said.

After walking about of Shao Nian Gong, I saw Zhao Yanyan, who was waiting for me not too far away. I waved towards her, the chick immediately came over, and immediately hung on me, “Why were you so slow, didn’t you say it’ll only take a while?”

“Isn’t it all because I wanted to sell the program for a high price, or else how can I support you in the future!” I hugged Zhao Yanyan and placed her back onto the floor.

“As if I can spend a lot~” Zhao Yanyan pouted and said unhappily.

“Fine, it’s that I don’t want to eat soft rice⌈3⌋.” I coaxed.

“That’s more like it,” Zhao Yanyan held my hand and walked with me to the Bus 6 station.

“The competition is over, there is no reason not to return home now,” Zhao Yanyan sighed and said.

Chapter 28 – A Dream



There were a few channels in the motel that were airing very old films from Hong Kong or Taiwan. I had seen it those no less than ten times in my previous life, and was naturally uninterested, although Zhao Yanyan did watch it with interest, and occasional let out loud laughs.

I woke up really early the second day, because I noticed that Zhao Yanyan’s leg was on me, and made it hard for me to breath. I carefully moved it away, in fear of waking up Zhao Yanyan, who was in deep slumber.

I went over to the window, the day hadn’t lit up yet, so it was a blurriness of grey outside. I don’t know why, but my heart suddenly felt a sense of guilt. Due to losing Zhao Yanyan in my previous life, I used my thirty years old intelligence and experienced to swindle Zhao Yanyan of her heart, and even had intercourse with her too early. Thinking about all this, I thought that I’m very selfish. I’m scared of losing Zhao Yanyan once more in the future, so when Zhao Yanyan suggested that I could eat her, I accepted almost without a slither of hesitation. Although Zhao Yanyan says she definitely doesn’t regret it, she is still only sixteen, I can’t be certain that she wouldn’t come to regret this hastiness as she ages.

I wanted to take out a cigarette from my pocket in a habit, but there was nothing inside. This was a habit of mine in my previous life, whenever I had something bothering me, I would smoke in front of the window, but after I had been reborn, I haven’t touched cigarettes for a long time. However, this was good, since smoking brings so much harm to the body, I might be able to quit smoking using this chance.

“Hubby, don’t leave me,” a voice interrupted me. I thought Zhao Yanyan woke up, but when I turned back to see, the chick was still sleeping, she was sleep talking.

I walked over, and gently caressed Zhao Yanyan’s face, and said softly, “Yanyan, I will love you for two lives.”

As if the chick heard my words, the corners of her mouth turned up, and revealed a sweet smile.

I embraced Zhao Yanyan, leaned on the head of the bed and fell asleep once more. When I woke up, I found that Zhao Yanyan was already awake, and had opened her eyes to silently watch me in my embrace.

“When did you wake up?” I yawned and asked.

“Just now,” Yanyan said faintly. “Liu Lei, I had a dream just now.”

“It’s okay,” I comforted. “Dreams are all fake.”

“No,” Zhao Yanyan shook her head, and said sobbingly. “It was very real, I dreamt that you didn’t want me anymore, I chased after you, but I could never catch up…”

“I would never, never,” I comforted her. A girl is a girl, even treating a dream as reality.

“Hehe,” Zhao Yanyan smiled craftily. “But then you turned around, hugged me and said that you would love me for two lives.”

I sweated, how was this a dream, isn’t this what I said just now?

“What time is it?” I felt relieved seeing that she was alright.

“En, it’s seven something, let’s pack up and go downstairs!” Zhao Yanyan reluctantly crawled out from my embrace, got off the bed, then went back on her own bed to find clothes.

I went to the bathroom, after cleaning myself up, I looked my watch, seven forty-five, the time was just right.

When we got downstairs, we saw Geezer Xu and his granddaughter standing in front of a bus, and waved to us when they noticed us.

We got on the bus, and noticed that most of the passengers were students wearing all kinds of uniform, most of them are participating while representing the local schools or training centers. I saw that there were only two girls, Zhao Yanyan and Xu Ruoyun, but these boys didn’t react at all, as if they didn’t exist. Four words immediately flashed across my mind: A bunch of nerds.

The typing competition rules were simple, just type accordingly to the alphabets that were getting shown on the screen, the one who gets the highest point in the designated time wins.

This was a piece of cake for me, my typing speed of eight hundred something letters per minute in my past life isn’t just for show. I was already hiding half of my ability during the competition.

The results were quickly shown after the contest ended, it was all computer calculated. I was the first, with an average of 402 letters typed per minute, Zhao Yanyan was the sixth, an average of 171, it was an improvement from her previous speed. Xu Ruoyun’s result wasn’t bad, third, 201 letters. To be truthful, there were almost no different in the results between second to sixth, only I had a terrifying and awe-inspiring result.

Geezer Xu got so excited that golden light were coming out of his eyes, his face was full of emotions. Only then did Xu Ruoyun finally look at me with a slightly more friendly gaze.

Zhao Yanyan didn’t really feel anything about getting sixth herself, and was instead interested in my first place, and kept on asking Geezer Xu, if the first place would have a price. Geezer Xu also shook his head and said that he didn’t know.

From my perspective, the programming contest on the second day was unusually chaotic, the rules were a mess, the questions were a mess, even the grading criteria were a complete mess, but it was due to this, my piece was able to coincidentally take first place.

The situation was like this, the contest topic was to write a demonstration program, it could demonstrate some text, or a picture, as long as it was something made up of dots.

When the contest organizer’s use of language wasn’t precise enough, the contest was fated to become chaotic. If you were proficient in LOGO, then pictures or text were rather easy, but it was comparatively harder using other languages. I really don’t understand what the person that came up with the topic was thinking, but you can’t blame him, since computers were not yet popularized in Huaxia, there weren’t many people that could use it from the start, if the contest rules were too strict, then it would be impossible to continue.

I chose to use assembly language, although this was an extremely difficult language to use, I had used this language to write the same code no less than a hundred times in my previous life during university. After it is completed, it is a picture of Zhao Yanyan after she matured. This code was still fresh in my mind.

I didn’t even need to think, and speedily typed out the code from my memories using the keyboard, and finished it in one go. When the mature and beautiful Zhao Yanyan appeared on my screen, I didn’t even take ten minutes, and the contest time was the entire morning.

Since I had always treated Zhao Yanyan as my goddess when I went to university, this picture was a perfect interpretation after my deep thoughts, under the setting sun, Zhao Yanyan wore a small white coat, and stood at the entrance of Huaxia university, every tiny detail was precisely annotated.

I copied the file with the completed code and picture with a floppy disk, wrote my candidate number and name, then handed it to the judges.

“You finished?” the judges looked at me in surprise, and thought it to be unbelievable, how could I finish that quickly?

“Yes,” I nodded, then walked out of the venue.

Chapter 27 – Remembered in my heart



“Liu Lei, you’re mine!” Zhao Yanyan said happily, the redness on her cheeks did not fade a bit.

“En, you’re mine,” I said.

“You can’t not want me in the future,” Zhao Yanyan’s tears fell softly, and dropped into my heart.

Likewise in Yanjiang, the Zhao Yanyan in my previous life was so far away. Yet she is in close proximity to me in this life, I changed history at this very moment, Zhao Yanyan became my right and proper wife.

Neither her nor I expected, in a motel, this cramp room, became our bridal chamber. This was all too sudden, yet it seemed so natural, there wasn’t excessive talks, all of it came naturally.

Communication on a spiritual level was far greater than a thousand, ten-thousand words. This moment, was scorched in my memory, forever remembered.

Zhao Yanyan carefully folded up the bed-sheet, and placed it into her backpack.

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“It’s my first time, of course it’s to be a keepsake!” Zhao Yanyan didn’t shy away, and just walked naked around in front of me like that, causing my heart to feel cluttered.

Zhao Yanyan didn’t notice that my sexual desires have been aroused behind her, and was pushed onto the bed instantly…

“Don’t cherishing me at all, it’s my first time today!” Zhao Yanyan was very dissatisfied with my second coming.

“But it’s my first time too!” I pretended to be innocent and said.

“…#¥%…” Zhao Yanyan was speechless.

The two of us took a hot shower one by one, when I came out, Zhao Yanyan already got dressed, the bed sheet has already been changed, who knows how she talked to the reception desk.

At noon, Geezer Xu called us to eat. Zhao Yanyan and I were like newlyweds, and sweetly walked out of the room under each other’s support.

What welcomed us was Xu Ruo yun’s look of disdain, and she coldly said a sentence, “How old are you guys, not being ashamed!” Then she left first.

Geezer Xu saw my unhappy expression, and immediately came over to smooth things over, “Don’t take it to heart, the chick Ruoyun is like that!”

I snorted in annoyance, then went downstairs with Geezer Xu.

After lunch, Geezer Xu wanted to take us around. Zhao Yanyan had just turned from a girl into a woman, and even walking took a lot of effort, so used the excuse of being unwell to stay and rest back at the motel. I naturally had to stay behind as well, leaving only Geezer Xu and Xu Ruoyun to go out.

“Does it still hurt?” I asked quietly when we were going back to the room.

“Of course, don’t you see it taking me a lot of effort to even walk? If not then I would go out!” Zhao Yanyan let out a slightly unhappy sigh and leaned on me.

“Sorry…” I said lightly, because at that moment I didn’t know what I was supposed to say.

“Hubby ——“

“En?”

“It doesn’t hurt now, how about we try again,” Zhao Yanyan stuck her whole body over, and said to be in a smooth voice.

“……·#¥%…—*” I was speechless once again.

Zhao Yanyan and I didn’t do anything else, we just left traces of our love from everywhere, from the motel bed to the floor, then to the bathroom, I could clearly feel the deep love that Zhao Yanyan has for me.

We got tired after that, so we embraced each other and lied on the bed. Zhao Yanyan snuggled in my embraced, and told me about her love.

I caressed Zhao Yanyan’s smooth back, and told her a sad story. The main character of the story was also called Liu Lei and Zhao Yanyan.

When Zhao Yanyan heard the “Liu Lei” in the story die, her face was full of tears.

When we woke up, the sky was already dark, the street likes shimmered, becoming a gorgeous blur.

“Are you hungry?” I asked Zhao Yanyan, who just woke up.

“A little,” Zhao Yanyan said. “You?”

“I’m starving…” I looked at the watch, it was already eight at night, and we didn’t know if Geezer Xu and his granddaughter returned yet.

When Zhao Yanyan and I finished getting dressed, it was already half an hour later. We locked the door, and noticed that the adjacent room was pitch dark, it looks like the two didn’t return yet.

We left the motel, and walked slowly on the streets. Zhao Yanyan’s body had already restored, and jumped around happily.

“Liu Lei, why do you think this is called Changan Street?” Zhao Yanyan asked me loudly while pointing to the road sign.

“I don’t know, could this be the Changan city during the Xihan era? I bullshited.

“What?! You illiterate, Changan city is in Xian, what did you learn in history!” Zhao Yanyan mocked.

“Hehe,” I was completely useless at history, but I do know quite a bit if you were to ask me about the future.

“So this is the capital city? So pretty!” Zhao Yanyan stopped pestering me about my illiteracy, and was attracted by the busy scenery around us.

The 1994 Huaxia capital city, was completely different from the edifice-filled, flourishing Yanjing, but compared to Songjiang city that was even more behind, this was already a first class metropolis.

The warm night autumn winds blew past our cheeks, with a hint of refreshing coolness. I pulled on Zhao Yanyan’s hands and arrived at a street stall, the owner immediately come over and greeted us, “What would your two like to eat?”

“Yanyan, have you eaten Maxiao before?” I asked after taking a glance at the menu.

“Maxiao? What’s Maxiao?”The word was very foreign to Zhao Yanyan.

Only then did I remember, the word Maxiao would only be understood by people that have lived in Yanjing, it’s just an abbreviation for Mala Crayfish. It is a dish that Zhao Yanyan really loved in the previous life, she would always order it every time at company gatherings, and gets really happy while eating it. However, because the number of black-hearted businessmen increased, the originally natural crayfish were started to be bred with chemical waste, after eating crayfish, the people would get a weird kind of disease, Zhao Yanyan never had anymore.

Suddenly my mind returned to 1994, the crayfish at this time should not have been contaminated, if we don’t eat it now, then we’ll never get to eat it.

“It’s just Mala Crayfish,” I explained.

The stall owner also praised himself on the said, “This xiaoge is obviously someone who understands food from first glance, we are not praising ourselves, the crayfish here is definitely the best in Jingcheng!”

Zhao Yanyan has never eaten it before, and seeing the enthusiastic promotion of it by the owner, we ordered five Maxiao, and a few skewers of lamb.

When the Maxiao came, Zhao Yanyan only took a bite, then started breathing out hear, then shouted after drinking a mouthful of soft drink, “So spicy, so spicy! I’m not eating it anymore! What is this!”

It looks like Zhao Yanyan’s ability to eat spicy food, has not been developed. Since she’s not eating it, then I won’t hold back, and demolished the remaining four and Zhao Yanyan’s remaining half.

When we returned to the motel, we found Geezer Xu who returned with tons of bags. Typical farmer actions, I sighed! However in 1994, a lot of people were proud of being able to bring stuff from other places back home.

Geezer Xu handed me the itinerary for the competition, then reminded me about the things to look out for doing the test. Then finally told me that we were going to meet at eight the next morning at the motel lobby, so don’t be late.

I looked at the itinerary, the competition was over two days, the geezer registered me for two, one was typing, the other was programming. Zhao Yanyan only had typing.

The competition was held near Ganjiakou, I didn’t understand why was the organized place so far away, judging with my experienced from my previous life, the organizer and the motel must have some link, but this was none of my concern, since there’ll be a bus to take us there tomorrow morning.

Zhao Yanyan and I watched a bit of TV at night, noticed that there aren’t many good shows, a lot of the channels were airing the popular sitcom I love my home.

Chapter 26 – First Time to Yanjing



Time passed really quickly, it was already the October break half a month later in a blink of an eye, it was also the date for Zhao Yanyan and I to go to Yanjing to participate in the teenage computer competition.

The transportation fees, competition fees were all paid by Shao Nian Gong. If I didn’t get reborn, then I would definitely be moved by this, and think that Shao Nian Gong was place that truly thought about teenagers. However it was different now, I was all clear about these subtle actions, what Shao Nian Gong had given up was way too tiny compared to the fame it would bring if we won.

Geezer Xu personally lead us this time, with us was a pretty yet quiet girl that also will represent Shao Nian Gong to enter the competition, she was about the same age as me. There was an unspeakable feeling looking at her, although she didn’t share Zhao Yanyan’s delicate beauty, there it was another style. If Zhao Yanyan was a pretty girl from a respectable family, then that girl could definitely be called a cute girl from a small family.

I definitely never saw this girl before, Zhao Yanyan was the only girl in Shao Nian Gong’s computer class, even if my eyesight was terrible, I couldn’t have thought of a girl as a boy, especially not a beauty.

It was the people from Shao Nian Gong that bought the tickets, one top bunk, two middle bunk and one bottom bunk. Geezer Xu got the bottom bunk, I originally wanted to go on the top bunk and leave the middle gunk for the two girls, I didn’t think that the other girl climbed to the top bunk first.

“Xu-laoshi, who is she?” Zhao Yanyan curiously asked Geezer Xu, who was eating instant noodles.

“Oh her, she’s my granddaughter. She wasn’t interested in the competition at all, but when she heard that our Shao Nian Gong got a genius like Liu Lei, she wasn’t convinced, and wanted to compete,” Geezer Xu said while smiling.

Although Geezer Xu didn’t praise Zhao Yanyan, when Zhao Yanyan heard that Geezer Xu praised me as a genius, her face was full of smiles, as if happier than praising herself.

“Grandpa, why are you so annoying! Saying random crap!” Before Zhao Yanyan and I said anything, Geezer Xu’s granddaughter’s head popped out from the top bunk and said unhappily.

Why was this girl so disrespectful, I frowned in my heart. However, Geezer Xu’s expression didn’t seem to care, it looked like he got used to it. But I was still unable to resist and scolded, “No matter what, he’s your grandpa, does he need you to teach him about what to say?”

The girl heard it, then replied with dissatisfaction, “And who are you? Why do I need you to teach me what to do?”

“Humph,” I laughed coldly, “I’m not anyone special, but I understand children of HUaxia respecting elders is the most minimal virtue!”

“How am I disrespectful! You don’t even know how good my relationship normally is with grandpa! A dog with a mouse, a busy body, I hate the kind of people like you, who with just a little bit of talent, starts pretending to be a savior and scold other people!” After saying that, the girl shrunk her head back.

What was that! What did it mean I had a bit of talent? So baffling, I can’t be bothered with her.

Geezer Xu comforted me on the side, “Xiao Liu, don’t take it to heart. This child lacks familial warmth from a young age, she have followed me ever since her parents got divorced, so her personality is a bit withdrawn, so don’t take it to heart!”

I shook my head while smiling wryly, I didn’t think this girl has that kind of background, the child from a single parent family will always have a bit of a rebellious attitude whether it was big or small, and she even have a parent. I thought she was just spoiled, it seems like I was wrong about her.

Nothing was said along the way. Geezer Xu’s granddaughter, who I only found out afterwards was called Xu Ruoyun, came down to eat and for the bathroom, she stayed in her bunk to read all the other time.

The next morning, we arrived at new Huaxia’s capital city —— Yanjing. Zhao Yanyan was really excited, and kept looking here and there, as if interested about everything. Although Xu Ruoyun didn’t show anything on the surface, her curious gaze was the same as Zhao Yanyan’s.

Geezer Xu temporarily took upon the role of a tour guide, and continuously introduced the culture and scenery of Yanjing to us. The two chicks really enjoyed it, but I wasn’t. Yanjing, I couldn’t be anymore familial this city, I’ll studied and lived here for more than ten years! From university to work, to until the last moment of my life, my heart clenched thinking to that point, and tightly grasped Zhao Yanyan’s hand.

As if noticing my abnormality, Zhao Yanyan looked at my slightly sad expression, and asked carefully, “Liu Lei, what happened?”

I shook my head, was I supposed to tell her that I got sad because I saw her marry another man?

“I just feel a bit tired. Don’t mind me, I’m fine,” I lied.

“Then let’s find a place to stay first!” Seeing that I was unwell, Zhao Yanyan didn’t have the interest to continue looking at sceneries.

“That’s right, health is important!” Geezer Xu agreed. He was still counting on me to make achievements, if something happened to me causing me to miss the competition, then that would suck.

Only Xu Ruoyun pouted unhappily, and sneered, “It’s so shameful, a boy is being so sickly.”

I didn’t reply, but Zhao Yanyan did frown unhappily, yet she didn’t react.

We arrived at the motel designated by the Teenage Computing Competition Committee, and got two standard rooms. Geezer Xu also understood Zhao Yanyan and my relationship on the way, he wasn’t our school’s teacher, and so didn’t feel lik he had the right to say anything.

This geezer wasn’t anyone old-fashioned either, in this day and age, the people that can accept computers, all had a forward mindset, and so Geezer Xu didn’t make too many comments about me and Zhao Yanyan’s relationship.

From his perspective, you’re already an adult at sixteen, dating between boys and girls weren’t anything hateful either, as long as both sides could control themselves, and not let it affect the normal academic life, then it’s fine.

From the current look of things, Zhao Yanyan and I were clearly excellent, especially in regards to computers, so naturally Geezer Xu didn’t say anything. It’s not like he didn’t think of couples improving together either, and that was made it seem even less of a deal.

Seeing Geezer Xu’s calm expression, I let out a sigh of relief, if only all teachers could be so enlightened, and could properly view boys and girls’ dating, there was some that would not affect normal studying, and will help each other improve, let these go, what problems will that cause?

The original plan was for Geezer Xu and I to stay in one room, Zhao Yanyan and Xu Ruoyun in another, but when getting the room keys, I got two keys of the same room. Geezer Xu wanted to say something, then hesitated and decided not to say it, and got the other two room keys with Xu Ruoyun.

Geezer Xu got us to rest first, and said that he’ll bring us out and around in the afternoon. I was naturally really happy, Zhao Yanyan was blushing fiercely on the side, who knows what she’s thinking.

After Geezer Xu left, only Zhao Yanyan and I were left in the room. Although it wasn’t the first time the two of us were alone together, we had never stayed in a room like this before. So there was a tiny bit of awkwardness.

“It’s just the two of us,” I said to Zhao Yanyan, who sat silently by the bed.

“En,” Zhao Yanyan didn’t dare to look at me, her cheeks were like the burning sun.

I couldn’t hold the desires in my heart back anymore, and fiercely held Zhao Yanyan up, and kissed her lips…

Chapter 25 – The Box is only so Big



After a brief thought, I thought of a plan. I shouted loudly, “Driver, open the door quickly!”

The driver was also frozen in fear, he didn’t think that four robbers would appear on his bus. Now hearing someone tell him to open the door, he wish that these robbers would get off quickly, and thus swiftly opened the bus door.

I immediately pulled Zhao Yanyan and got off, the three comrades of the thief thought that I wanted to run, and also followed me off. In truth, this was the result I desired.

Comrade A shouted, “Don’t let him get away, let’s catch him kill him!”

However to their surprise, I didn’t run after getting off, and instead stood onto a clearing on the side of the road.

“Brat, you recognize your situation!” Seeing that I wasn’t moving, Comrade B thought that I was scared.

“Big bro, second bro, don’t waste our breath with him, let us hurry and avenge third bro!” Comrade B said.

“That’s right, go get him!” Hearing that, the remaining two immediately rushed towards me.

I pushed Zhao Yanyan to the sides, and easily dodge their attacks, then ran behind them.

Before they reacted, I quickly chopped down on the back of each of their necks, the few comrades of the thief fell onto the floor without a sound.

“Remember this, one who commits many injustices is doomed to fail. Don’t let me see you again!” I left these words when we left.

“Ah!” Only then did the people on the bus reacted, and all surrounded the thieves, some of them even took out a cell phone, and wanted to share a tiny bit of the hero’s glory.

I pulled Zhao Yanyan and swiftly left the crowd, then disappeared on the streets. I didn’t want to wait till the police come, although I did help for a just cause, but it would waste a lot of time to record a testimony, what’s more was that Zhao Yanyan and I were about to be late. I believe those cowardly passengers will definitely make the perfect testimonies, and claim credit for things.

Although we hurried, when we came to Shao Nian Gong, we were still late.

Seeing that it was the two of us, Geezer Xu didn’t say anything. What could he say, he was still counting on us to make achievements.

Geezer Xu gave me the floppy disk copy of TC2.0, then continued to teach the lesson for the other students.

“Liu Lei, you can program?” Seeing I install TC, Zhao Yanyan asked me weirdly.

“A little,” I said.

“You have a computer at home?” Zhao Yanyan didn’t understand, normal people wouldn’t easily get into contact with these mysterious things, such as computers.

“Nope,” I shook my head. Of course not, if there is then what’s the point of me being here.

“Then you have learnt computing before?” Zhao Yanyan asked in disbelief.

“Nope,” This didn’t count as lying to her, because I truly didn’t learn computing this life.

“Oh,” Zhao Yanyan thought I didn’t want to talk about it, so unhappily dipped her head.

Ai! I sighed, and said to Zhao Yanyan, “Yanyan, is not that I don’t want to talk about some things, it’s that I don’t know how to talk about it. But one thing can be certain, and that is my love for you is true.”

“En,” Zhao Yanyan replied softly with a blushed face, after a while, she said to me, “No worries, Liu Lei. I believe you.”

I caressed her face, then started doing my own stuff.

My strength was C# and C++ in my previous life, but these two languages were developed with the C language as the foundation, so for me to use C now was still straightforward, it’s just that some phrases were slightly more miscellaneous.

It was good that the workload for an input method wasn’t a lot, I believed that I can finish it in one day.

Phew, I let out a sigh, it’s finally done. I excitedly opened UCDOS, and prepared to test my input method. This input method wasn’t hard, the most important thing is that it could be added to WPS, although I already have the ideas for developing my own office software, the current product is going to be used to be exchanged for money, so whether or not it could be used stably in WPS was a key to the product’s success.

I looked at it, there was no problem using it under UCDOS, and it could perfectly type Chinese characters, but when I ran WPS, the computer crashed.

What happened? I rebooted the computer, and started UCDOS, then ran the input method, opened WPS, it still resulted in a crash.

That’s impossible? Why did it crash, it was possible if it was incompatible, but why did it crash? I couldn’t understand after thinking a lot about it.

Never mind, I’ll think about it after a break. I stretched, raised my head, and noticed that the entire computer suite was completely empty, I was the only one left.

Where’s Zhao Yanyan? I saw that the seat beside me was already empty, I didn’t even know when did she leave. As I was wondering, Zhao Yanyan came in from the door with two plastic containers.

“You’re done? I bought two boxed lunches, eat it while it’s hot,” Zhao Yanyan walked over and handed me a portion.

I took it over, it was the kind with a box of rice and a box of dishes, there were a lot of dishes. I thought it weird and asked, “How is there so much dish?” Last time there was only half a box of dishes when Zhao Yanyan bought me a box lunch at school, I didn’t really get full.

“We can take as much as we want, “Zhao Yanyan explained.

“Oh, then why didn’t you get more?” I asked casually.

“I do want to, but the box is only so big, if I add too much then it won’t fit!” Zhao Yanyan opened the box lunch, then started eating first.

If I add too much then it won’t fit! A thought flashed across my mind, that’s right, it’s that! The volume of the box is limited, the same as a computer’s storage. The storage of the computer was mostly 8M at this time, I didn’t take note of that when I programmed the input method, and followed my programming experienced from Microsoft in my previous life —— sacrificing a large storage to ensure the stability of the program. This was the reason of the computer crashing when I ran so many programs.

Thinking to this point, I excitedly turned Zhao Yanyan’s cheeks over, and kissed it.

“Oi! I’m eating, what are you doing!” Zhao Yanyan struggled, and said with discontent.

“Nothing, waifu! I’m so happy!” I took up the box lunch to eat, since problem has been found, then what follows was simple, I believe there is enough time to perfect it in the afternoon.

My input method finally passed all the method at seven something that night, and was able to save a lot of space, allowing it to be easily used with a hot-key under WPS.

Zhao Yanyan kept me company silently by my side during all this, and didn’t ask anything, and occasionally played some finger games. When Zhao Yanyan heard me scream “Success” loudly in happiness, she also very happily kissed me, even though she didn’t know what I was doing from start to finish.

I was happy about having a woman like Zhao Yanyan after getting reborn, a lot of the times, no matter what I was doing, no matter if she understood or not, she would silently support me.

Zhao Yanyan had planned to go out and play with me in the afternoon, and used the excuse that Shao Nian Gong had to prepare for the competition in the afternoon to her family in the morning. I didn’t think what I would get delayed causing us to not do anything. Although on the surface, Zhao Yanyan didn’t say anything, but I could feel Zhao Yanyan’s sigh with a hint of regret when I took her home.

Chapter 24 – Thief



“What is it?” the girl called Ruo Yun asked

“Give me a copy of TC2.0,” Xu Jinde immediately said his purpose.

“Grandpa, what do you want this for? Don’t you normally use Basic? Ruo Yun asked in confusion.

“Errr, I’m copying it for a student in the computer class!” Xu Jinde explained.

“The computer class at Shao Nian Gong? There is actually a student that understand C languages?” Ruo Yun revealed an expression of disbelief.

“Yeah, look at whose student that is!” Xu Jinde said proudly.

“Heh, according to what I know you only just had a lesson with that class right? How does them knowing it have anything to do with you?” Ruo Yun pointed out Xu Jinde’s fatal weakness without leaving any room for him.

Xu Jinde laughed embarrassedly, “Even if it’s a Chollima, you still need Bole to discover it!” ⌈1

Ruo Yun didn’t want to debate with her grandfather, who was really vain, anymore, thus made a copy of TC2.0 with a floppy disk and handed it to him.

Yu Jinde took the floppy disk, turned and walked out of the room. When he reached the door, the turned back around, “Ruo Yun, you’re really not entering the computer competition?”

Ruo Yun said in annoyance, “Grandpa, how many times did I tell you, I’m not entering!”

Xu Jinde was unwilling to give up, “But you’re so good at programming, can’t you help make your grandpa look good?”

Ruo Yun shook her head, “What good is the competition? Only people without a high level of skill would want to use a competition to prove themselves, the real masters are always silent without a sound.”

Xu Jinde suddenly thought of something, and laughed cunningly, “I don’t think that’s the case! That student of mine can type three hundred something letters per minute, and also knows programming, he also entered!”

“What? Three hundred something letters?” Ruo Yun exclaimed, even she couldn’t reach that speed.

“Is that person really that good?” Ruo Yun suddenly became curious about the person her grandpa was talking about, she pretty much knew all the computer masters on her level in Songjiang city, but she never heard about anyone reaching that level?

Xu Jinde saw that the goading worked, and was extremely happy. However he still retained a serious tone as he spoke, “Why would I lie to you! From my point of view, even you might not be able to reach his level!”

Ruo Yun fell for it as expected, and raised her fists confidently, “Who said I can’t compete with him! Fine! I’ll enter that something competition, I want to see who’s better!’

Xu Jinde immediately left before Ruo Yun went back on her words.

On the station.

“Achoo!” I sneezed, who was talking about me!”

I took a look at my watch, what’s the chick Zhao Yanyan doing, we said we’ll meet the station for Bus 6 near her home at eight, it’s five past eight already, why isn’t she coming.

Just as I was thinking that, a pair of little cold hands covered my eyes from behind me, “Guess who?”

Heh, little kid’s tricks, I laughed coldly in my heart. But I still wanted to tease her.

“You’re Beibei?” I asked.

“No!”

“Then Yangyang?” I said after a ponder.

“No!”

“Oh, you must be Lili!” I intentionally thought about it for a long time, and said with assurance.

“Humph! I’m Yanyan! I don’t care about you anymore!” Zhao Yanyan let go of her hands, and said angrily, “Tell me quickly, what Beibei, Yangyang, who are those people?”

I looked innocently at Zhao Yanyan, “When did I say they were people?”

Zhao Yanyan didn’t think I would say that, momentarily blanked, then asked, “Then what are they?”

I chuckled, “I was talking about the neighbors’ puppies!”

“Wow, you said I’m a puppy!” Zhao Yanyan reached over and pinched me.

“Aiya! Someone’s murdering her husband!” I screamed and ran.

At this moment, a Bus 6 drove over, Zhao Yanyan and I got on.

There were a lot of people on the bus, Zhao Yanyan and I managed to find a place near the door and sat down.

“Didn’t your grandpa get Secretary Zhang to take you to school?” I asked.

“How not, I spoke to him for a long file, before he finally agreed to let me go myself —— Ai. What are you doing?” Zhao Yanyan didn’t finish, before she suddenly screamed.

At that moment, I also noticed that behind Zhao Yanyan, stood an aggressively faced man, one of his hands was reached into Zhao Yanyan’s backpack.

I immediately reacted, my first thought was that we met a thief!

The man didn’t think that he would be discovered, and hurriedly took out a sharp knife form his pocket and shouted, “Don’t move, the one who move dies!”

A wave of screams rang out in the bus, people immediately moved to the sides,

“I. AM. ROBBING! Take out all your cash and valuables!” that aggressively-faced man also torn his face after seeing the situation being revealed.

The people on the bus backed off a few more steps, all of them terrified beyond help.

“What are you looking at, call the police quickly!” Zhao Yanyan said after seeing the people not only not help, but went away as far as possible.

No one moved, of course, I’m not eliminating the possibility that none of them have a cellphone.

“Shout for what? If you shout any more, then I’ll have my red knife enter, and clean knife out!” the aggressively-faced man placed the knife at Zhao Yanyna’s throat and shouted.

“Puchi”. A lot of people couldn’t help but laugh after hearing that sentence.

“Laugh your ***! ****!” the aggressively-faced man became more anxious.

I remembered a classic quote from a movie in my previous life, and so I said, “I hate robbers like you, you have no technique at all!”

After people on the bus heard it, no one could hold it in anymore, and everyone started laughing.

The aggressively-faced man angrily raised the sharp knife, and said with a pale face, “Who’s laughing, I’ll stab the person who laughs to death first.”

The reason I provoked him, was to wait for this chance. That split-second, when the aggressively-faced man raised his knife, I dashed over and sent the knife in his hand flying with a punch, then used my knee to hit his lower body.

This all happened in a fraction of a moment, the aggressively-faced man howled as he clutched his lower body and squatted onto the floor.

“Call the police quickly!” I looked at the people that all momentarily blanked out.

Hearing my words, one of the people that looked educated finally took out a cell phone and prepared to call the police. Out of them all, most likely he was the only one who has a cell phone, you have to know, this was in 1994, only the really rich or the power with a lot of status would have cell phones.

Before he could dial, three fearsome men squeezed through the crowd, one of them said cockily, “Let’s see who dares to call the police?”

The educated man immediately put his cell phone away. I shouted not good in my heart, this thief actually has comrades!

“Hehe, brat, aren’t you awesome? You messed up our plan! I didn’t think that you are pretty savage, striking Laosan’s ****!” said Comrade A.

“Today, us three bros will avenge Laosan, we have to beat you until you are a second-tier disabled!” Comrade B also shouted angrily.

During the half a month which I have been reborn, due to having trained following a plan, my body’s capabilities raised quite a bit, in addition to the sanda techniques I grasped in my previous life, it wasn’t difficult to deal with these lowly rascals, but I’m just scared that Zhao Yanyan or other innocent passengers will be hurt accidentally.



 

Chapter 23 – Zhao Junsheng’s Weird Actions



“Grandpa asked about our relationship yesterday, “ Zhao Yanyan said to me right after I go to school the next morning.

“Then what did you say?” I worriedly asked.

“I didn’t say anything, just that we are attending the computer competition together, and are desk mates in school so we get along,” Zhao Yanyan replied while holding up her face with her hands.

“Then didn’t your grandpa say anything?” I asked with suspicion. Most parents wouldn’t just let it go when their daughter or granddaughter is together with a boy.

“No, he just told me that going out normally is fine, but don’t let it influence my studies,” Zhao Yanyan said while blushing.

“Oh! That scared me, I thought your grandpa would tell you to stay away from me!” I let out a sigh of relief.

“That didn’t happen. Ai~! Wait Liu Lei, you really want me to stay away from you right? I don’t care! I’m just going to stick by your side!” Zhao Yanyan clearly misunderstood my meaning, and pouted.

“How could I!” I said, “You sticking to me, I’m really happy about that!”

As the two of us were talking, Liu Kesheng arrived at the office with a face of dirt.

The previous night, Liu Kesheng told his father what happened the moment he got home, he had thought the father that spoiled him since birth would help him get even. He didn’t think that after hearing the young man was Secretary Zhang, his father immediately asked what the girl’s surname was. After Liu Kesheng said Zhao, his father actually got extremely angry, and scolded him, and told him to stay away from Zhao Yanyan.

“Your grandpa is an official in the province?” I asked Zhao Yanyan.

“What about it?” Zhao Yanyan said, as it was all very normal.

“Then why didn’t you say anything before!” I definitely didn’t hear her mention it, even as her boss in my previous life, I wasn’t really familiar with her family background.

“Do you think there’s a point showing off like Liu Kesheng?” Zhao Yanyan replied with a question.

“That’s true!” I said, “I like you as a person, not your family background.

“…” Zhao Yanyan suddenly stopped speaking and looked at my shyly.

“What happened?” I asked curiously.

“Liu Lei, this is the first time you told me that you like me!” Zhao Yanyan whispered.

“Is it?” It seemed like it, ever since I was reborn it was always Zhao Yanyan that told me she likes me. It seems like I overlooked it. “I thought you already knew,” I said.

“But-but I like to hear you say it,” Zhao Yanyan said seriously.

“Oh, okay then.” I placed my mouth hear her ear, and whispered, “Yanyan, I love you!”

Zhao Yanyan’s expression filled up with love, and infinite joy. Her look of happiness was like a clay doll.

It seems like that something something saying was really right, women are to be spoiled. She clearly understood something, but she would still be very happy every time you say it.

The brat, Guo Qing, was quite cocky today, he raised his middle finger up high when he passed by Liu Kesheng. Liu Kesheng momentarily blanked after saying it and didn’t even dare to fart, he probably knew in his heart that Guo Qing beating someone of his physique up was just a walk in the park.

I only noticed in this life, that Guo Qing’s personality is actually very cocky, it’s just that it wasn’t activated in my previous life.

“Dasao, what are you guys talking about?” Guo Qing said hello to Zhao Yanyan the moment he came, and ignored me, the boss.

“Of course we’re talking love, unless I even have to tell you these kind of things?” I said unhappily.

“Hehe, dasao, the Secretary Zhang was really awe-inspiring yesterday! They all became spiritless when he arrive. What does he do?” Guo Qing asked excitedly.

“Obviously Secretary Zhang is a secretary!” Zhao Yanyan wasn’t like Liu Kesheng, who liked to show off these pointless things.

Seeing that she was unwilling to tell him, Guo Qing didn’t pester for the answer, and started telling me how his sanda skills improved.

At another location.

Zhao Junsheng gazed at the investigation report that old Gao sent over, a tsunami was in his heart, and it wouldn’t be calmed that soon.

“Director Zhao, what happened?” Seeing Zhao Junsheng’s sick expression, old Gao immediately asked.

“Old Gao, are all your information true?” Zhao Junsheng asked after taking a deep breath.

“Yes! I went to the police station to find out in person!” Old Gao said assuredly, “Director Zhao, don’t get mad, how about I find some people to warn the brat?”

Zhao Junsheng shook his head and laughed wryly, “Never mind, let them do what they want! As long as it’s not too inappropriate, we’ll just close an eye!”

Old Gao looked unbelievably at the man in front of him, as if he was a stranger. Director Zhao wasn’t such an enlightened person right? The last time a boy wrote a love letter for xiaojie, Director Zhao asked relentlessly after finding out, what happened this time.

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand and said to old Gao, “I’m tired, go back first!”

After old Gao left, Zhao Junsheng sank into his memories, as if he returned to the 80s, when he just changed jobs from the army, that beautiful summer, and that beautiful girl…

Remembering the time at the Songjiang Electronics factory, Zhao Junsheng couldn’t help but space out… The beautiful girl, that pure love, although his first love ended in failure, the girl had become someone else’s wife, the wonderful memory was deeply branded in Zhao Junsheng’s mind.

The first love is always hard to forget.

Could this be what is called fate? The unfinished fate of the last generation is carried on by the next? If it really is like that, then it does complete one of his wishes…

Xu Jinde was so happy that he couldn’t even close his mouth the last two days, two geniuses appeared from his computer class. One of them actually reached a typing speed of three hundred something alphabets per minute, this was unheard of even in past computer competitions.

If his student returned as the champion, then he, Xu Jinde, could also be elated once among his pears. The definitely would also be a portion for him in the year-end bonuses of Shao Nian Gong.

The more he thought, the more happy he got, the gods really favored him, letting him get two students that could make him proud in his seventies. Although he clearly knew that he wasn’t responsible for molding the two of them, but people loved to claim credit for things, there’s no reason to refuse the fame that he already got.

“Ruo Yun?” Xu Jinde pushed open his granddaughter’s room, and shouted.

Inside the room, a girl was using the computer familiarly. The girl turned her head back, and looked a Xu Jinde, on her comely face was hints of anger.

“Grandpa, how many times did I tell you, don’t disturb me when I’m programming!” the girl frowned.

“Ruo Yun, you see I forgot since I’m in a hurry,” Xu Jinde laughed forcefully, he was most afraid of this cunning and unusual granddaughter, if he didn’t actually need her for something, Xu Jindu wouldn’t come to throw himself against a wall.

Chapter 22 – Important Person’s Granddaughter



Liu Kesheng grunted coldly, he was spoiled since a young age, and has see a lot of important politicians, which of them dared to scold him? The young man in front of him wasn’t that old, thus clearly couldn’t be anyone important, and said cockily, “Don’t ******* talk about the law with me! I’m telling you, my dad’s an important person, my family have tons of money, even if I made him die, the worst result would be compensating a tiny bit of money!”

Secretary Zhang couldn’t stand it anymore, and slapped Liu Kesheng’s face, he’s never seen a kid with such a terrible upbringing.

“You dare to hit me!” Liu Kesheng shouted as he covered his face, “I’m telling you! I can make you die! My dad is Liu Ran, and great friends with Director XX in the city and Official XX in the province, I can make you disappear from this earth tomorrow!”

Secretary Zhang snickered after hearing that, no wonder he was so cocky, he’s Liu Ran’s son!

Seeing that Secretary Zhang stopped talking, Liu Kesheng thought that he became scared of him, and laughed coldly, “How’s that! Scared right, **** off if you’re screwed, it isn’t easy to mind someone else’s business.”

Secretary Zhang didn’t get angry, but instead laughed, “Go back home and tell Liu Ran, he doesn’t have many days left to be hopping around! Don’t think that other people doesn’t know about what he normally does!”

Liu Kesheng momentarily blanked, he didn’t believe what the twenty-something years old man in front of him said, his father was very capable in Songjiang city, he didn’t do too little things like beating people until they become disabled, and weren’t they all sorted out by his father’s money in the end?

After knowing Liu Kesheng’s identity, Secretary Zhang stopped caring about him, and took Zhao Yanyan, I and co. and left.

Seeing us leave, Liu Kesheng said in irritation, “Yang-ge, quickly send out the order to arrest them!”

Chief Jiang ignored him, and walked us downstairs with a forced smile, Liu Kesheng’s voice could be heard behind us, “Jiang Yongfu! What are you doing, don’t forget, who donated the police car here to you guys! I’m going to tell my dad when I go home!”

Jiang Yongfu also felt difficult, it was Liu Ran’s son on one side, on the other was the secretary of a provisional official. Although the position of a secretary seems low, it’s been said from ancient times that the eunuchs beside the emperor have more power than others. Furthermore, Jiang Yongfu still didn’t understand who this girl called ‘Yanyan’ is.

When we reached the front of Secretary Zhang’s car, Jiang Yongfu couldn’t hold the query in his heart anymore, and asked carefully, “Secretary Zhang, this girl is ——”

Secretary Zhang opened the backdoor of the car, got us to go in first, then left a sentence for Jiang Yongfu, “Old Jiang, you’ve done it! You even dare to arrest Elder Zhao’s granddaughter!” Then ignoring the dumbstruck Jiang Yongfu, he got on the car.

Jiang Yongfu watched the fleeting car, and cursed in his heart: This old Yang, always causing trouble for me! That’s it now, my position as the chief is also insecure.

I took a peek at Secretary Zhang’s car when I got on, it is the Audi with the plate of “Song 0” that I saw the other day in front of school. Now that I saw the plate clearly, it was the second car in the province! According to Secretary Zhang’s words, Zhao Yanyan’s grandfather’s identity was known by everyone. With Secretary Zhang’s sentence before he left, I would already be sure that the owner of the car, Zhao Yanyan’s grandfather, was a very important person in our Songjiang province.

Although I was completely powerless, my heart was unnaturally excited. Hehe, it seems that my business development will go much smoother.

“Yanyan, let’s send your two classmates back home first,” Secretary Zhang said as he drove. In truth, Secretary Zhang already saw through Zhao Yanyan and my ambiguous relationship, but as someone who has been through this, and his age was only older than us by seven or eight years, he knew that interest in the opposite sex was normal, and so he didn’t pop the bubble along the way.

Guo Qing and I told him our addresses, Secretary Zhang dropped me off downstairs.

I said my goodbyes to Zhao Yanyan, and because Secretary Zhang was beside us, Zhao Yanyan didn’t say anything, and just told m to take a good rest.

It was already past eight when I got home, my mom and dad were as anxious as ants on a stove, seeing me return, my mom immediately rushed over and hugged me, “Leilei, where did you go! Your dad and I were worried to death!”

My dad also walked over and said anxiously, “Yeah, if you didn’t come back, your mom and I would consider calling the police!”

Calling the police? I laughed wryly in my heart, I was arrested to the station just now. However I couldn’t say this to my parents, or else they would get worried. I could only say that I got too tired these few days, so I accidentally fell asleep on the bus, and found that I missed the station when I woke up.

Since my recent behavior was good, my parents easily believed me, and told me to go and eat dinner first, then sleep earlier.

That night, I laid on my bed, unable to fall asleep.

Zhao Yanyan having that kind of family background was something I didn’t expect. I only knew that her family conditions were very good, but I didn’t know what they did. With her preferring to keep a low key, our contact was mostly during normal work.

I didn’t know why god would favor me so much, with good things happening to me one after another after I was reborn. I was still worried about whether I could make contacts with the government or not, but this was no longer a problem today.

No, I shook my head. Although Zhao Yanyan’s grandfather is an important official in the province, and I am Zhao Yanyan’s boyfriend, but will her grandfather recognize me as Zhao Yanyan’s boyfriend? In the eyes of other people, I was only sixteen, still a child, it would be enough if parents don’t oppose this kind of puppy love between students, why should they help me?

There was also the incident with Liu Kesheng today, which caused me to feel defeat for the first time. I did think too simply of some things, I was looking at certain things in front of me entirely with the thirty years of experience from my previous life. I was the CEO of Microsoft in the Huaxia region in my previous life, I couldn’t see the dirtiness at society’s bottom layer, these the ugliness of collusions between businessmen and officials in smaller cities would never happen in front of me. What I saw was only the officials full heartedly helping the business I was working at succeed.

It seems like I have to build up my own business as soon as possible, when I have enough power, then it would no longer be so easy to move me. As for Liu Kesheng’s family background, I would also investigate it in detail.

Chapter 21 – Secretary with an Impressive Background



“Since I’m here, don’t you dare to do anything to her!” the only thing I could do right now was to risk my life to protect Zhao Yanyan, I don’t know if that Secretary Zhang is reliable, so everything still came down to me.

“You’re pretty brave, brat,” Fat-*** Yang continued, “Xiao Du, give him a few shots.” Captain Yang said to the police on the side.

Hearing Fat-*** Yang’s orders, Xiao Du started to act cool, and took out a police baton from the cabinet, loud electric sparks could be heard from it.

“Zeze⌈1⌋, this is twenty thousand volt electricity, it’ll feel great when it hits someone!” Xiao Du laughed sinisterly and was prepared to hit me.

“You idiot, you’re really new!” Fat-*** Yang scolded, “Directly poking him like that will leave external wounds, Xiao Zhu, teach him!”

A dark and thin police walked over, and opened the handcuff on one of my hands with a key, then cuffed it into a water bath full of water. Before I could react, that Xiao Zhu already placed the baton into the water bath. My body shuddered.

“How is it, feels good right!” Xiao Zhu asked. If the baton hit someone directly, their body would leave clear external wounds, now that the water was acting as a conductor, it was both torturing, and didn’t leave any evidence behind.

“Good, you give it a hit!” I retorted coldly, since I knew that I have old bro Yama looking after me, I definitely won’t die. Thus I opposed him to the end.

Hearing me curse him, Xiao Zhu immediately increased the time period. My body immediately went numb.

Zhao Yanyan ran over after shouting “Ah”, but was caught by the police called Xiao Du from just now.

“**** you, that’s enough! Don’t kill him!” Fat-*** Yang scolded.

I laid paralyzed beside the water bath, unable to utter a slither of strength from my body.

Just as I felt like I was about to faint, the door of the interrogation room was kicked open with a “kuangdang” sound.

“Yang Shuguang! What are you doing!” a serious voice sounded out, but I didn’t have the strength to raise my head to look.

“Chief Jiang, we are interrogating a few criminals!” Captain Yang replied.

“Criminals? Who got you to arrest them!” Chief Jiang questioned.

“It’s-it’s Liu Kesheng that came to us, and told us to arrest them,” Fat-*** Yang said awkwardly.

Chief Jiang’s face darkened, and nodded his head. He knew Liu Kesheng, his family background wasn’t unimpressive, his father Liu Ran is a very capable man. As for this Fat-*** Yang, he wasn’t happy with him from the start, if he didn’t get into the police force with his wife’s family’s relations, he would have fired him ages ago! This fellow couldn’t do much, and just trouble for him everyday, arresting people just based on a word from a kid, is there anyone that works like that? This person lacked brains!

Chief Jiang felt a fire in his heart, he haven’t been promoted from this position of a chief after nearly six years, it’s all thanks to Fat-*** Yang, this kind of trash in the police force, always bringing shame to him. If being in collusion with the underworld, then it’s extorting a confession by torture, causing the people above to investigate many times, and nearly dragged him into it as well! If this guy’s wife’s family didn’t have some capabilities, this fellow would have been laid off ages ago!

“Who is Liu Kesheng?” a young man asked as he walked in from the door to the interrogation room.

“Aiya, Secretary Zhang! Why did you come in person, did I saw I’ll deal with it as you wait downstairs?” Chief Jiang said.

“I asked you who Liu Kesheng is, don’t say anything useless!” Secretary Zhang said solemnly.

Seeing their savior, Zhao Yanyan couldn’t control the emotions in her heart anymore, and break free from Xiao Du, and quickly went over to my side, and shook my body while crying, then choked, “Liu Lei, you’re alright right, don’t scare me!”

I wanted to comfort Zhao Yanyan, but couldn’t muster the strength to. It took a lot for me to finally say three words, “I am fine.”

Seeing that I didn’t die, Zhao Yanyan immediately held me tightly from behind.

“Yanyan, are you alright?” seeing Zhao Yanyan, Secretary Zhang immediately walked over and caressed her head.

“I’m fine, Uncle Zhang, but my classmate was nearly killed by them!” Zhao Yanyan said pitifully.

Secretary Zhang turned around with a frozen expression, and said loudly, “Jiang Yongfu, look at the good you have done!”

At that moment, Chief Jiang already cursed Liu Kesheng and Yang Shuguang ten thousand times in his heart, why didn’t they get his affirmation to arrest people? Did you really think you’re a detective captain? You’re just a captain of the defense team, none of your relationships are in the police force, you really thought of yourself as something?

Chief Jiang glared at Yang Shuguang and said, “What are you spacing out for, take the handcuffs off quickly!”

Captain Yang immediately came over and took off my handcuffs, he was confused, Liu Kesheng told him to arrest him, even if he poked a hole in the sky, he still had his dad to deal with it, what act was Chief Jiang putting on? Why was the young man beside him? But he didn’t dare to ask too much, and carefully left.

After the handcuffs were opened, I collapsed onto the floor. Guo Qing’s handcuffs were also open at this time, him and Zhao Yanyan helped me onto a chair. Zhao Yanyan grasped my hand tightly, as if she was terrified of losing me.

Until now, Jiang Yongfu still didn’t understand the relationship between the girl in front of him and Secretary Zhang, relatives? It didn’t seem like it, that little girl called him Uncle Zhang. Ai, hopefully they aren’t too close, or else he was in deep trouble. He already gave Yang Shuguang a cue for him to find Liu Kesheng, let that childe converse with Secretary Zhang.

Liu Kesheng was asked to go to the interrogation room. The moment Zhao Yanyan saw him, she raised her fists, and glared angrily at Liu Kesheng with her eyes wide open, “Liu Kesheng! You’re way too despicable! You got the police to arrest us after losing a fight yourself!”

Liu Kesheng didn’t understand the current situation, and thought everyone in the police station was on his side. He wasn’t scared at all now that he saw Jiang Yongfu, and cursed loudly, “*****, not accepting the face I decided to give you.”

“Who are you cursing!” Zhao Yanyan said angrily while raising her fists.

“Eh! Don’t think I don’t know what you and that brat did in the woods behind the school yesterday. And I thought you were so pure, I didn’t think that you were just a ****!” Liu Kesheng said confidently, “Hmmph! I’m telling you, I didn’t only arrest you, I’m also going to beat up this brat Liu Lei personally later, turn him into a disabled, into an eunuch, let’s see if you’ll still like him?”

Seeing a kid be so cocky, Secretary Zhang, who has experienced a lot, understood that this kid’s background must be rather impressive.

Secretary Zhang glared at Liu Kesheng and asked, “Don’t you know that what you’re doing is illegal?”



 


  1. It’s another laugh, well more like sneering in this case. 

Chapter 20 – Getting Arrested



As expected, Zhao Yanyan was still anxiously waiting for me in the classroom, seeing me enter, she flew into my arms.

“Liu Lei you scared me to death!” Zhao Yanyan said to me with puffy eyes, “Did you know? I was so worried just now, I was scared that I would never see you again!”

I embraced her tightly, and said, “Dumb chick, I’m so powerful, how could drop dead so easily,”

Zhao Yanyan laid in my embrace, as if she would lose me, only after a long while did she whisper into my ear, “Kiss me.” After that she closed her eyes.

My mind heated up instantly, isn’t this convincing me to make a mistake? But making a mistake, I like. Thus, I shamelessly prepared to make a mistake, but was freaked out by an untimely voice, “Boss, why did you run so fast!”

That shocked Zhao Yanyan and I, so we immediately separated. Guo Qing looked at us with an innocent face, “Boss, I didn’t see anything, please continue, I’m leaving!” After saying that, he turned and prepared to leave.

“That’s enough, stop pretending!” I shook my head helplessly, “Come back.”

“Hehe, Boss, Dasao!” Guo Qing snickered while scratching his head, this kid did have a talent for spotting things, he did call Dasao.

Zhao Yanyan replied faintly as she blushed.

“Boss, when did you get together with Dasao?” Guo Qing asked curiously. This kid was with me together everyday, and he sat in front of me, it wasn’t surprising for him to ask such a question.

“Hehe, this-this question is quite deep!” I replied perfunctorily.

Fortunately Zhao Yanyan said something to help me out. She said, “We’re all hungry right, let’s find somewhere to eat a little.”

Guo Qing waved his hand, “Never mind that, you couple should go, I won’t stick with you!”

Hearing that I immediately said, “Guo Qing, we’re bros, and not strangers, let’s go together!”
Zhao Yanyan also said, “That’s right, Liu Lei won’t be happy if you don’t go!”

Only then did Guo Qing pack his bag, and went downstairs with us.

I asked Zhao Yanyan on the way, “Is I fine if you go back late?”

Zhao Yanyan glared at me and said, “Isn’t it just because I’m worried about you! I told grandpa that the class leaders needed to have a meeting at night!”

Hehe, it was the second time this chick was lying for me.

When we got the school gate, I noticed something was wrong. Why was there so many people? It seems like there were police as well, did something happen at the school gate?

However, we didn’t pay heed to it, we only noticed when we got closer that Liu Kesheng was naturally standing in front of a group of police. Seeing us come out, Liu Kesheng pointed towards us and said, “That’s them, arrest them!”

The police behind him immediately surrounded us after hearing Liu Kesheng’s orders.

One of the police said to Guo Qing and I, “We are from the police station, we’re currently suspecting the two of you to be related to a case of aggravated battery, please return with us to the station to cooperate with the investigations!”

How was this asking us, before Guo Qing and I could speak, ice cold handcuffs were cuffed onto our hands.

“What grounds are you arresting us on?” Guo Qing anxiously asked.

“Who said we were arresting you? Cooperate with investigations don’t you get it! Be careful when you speak!” a slightly younger police glared at Guo Qing.

“There’s no need to wear handcuffs to cooperate with investigations is there?” I said coldly.

“Heh! We don’t need you to teach us how to do our jobs, less of that bullshit with me! I suspect that you are the criminal, so I have the rights to handcuff you!” a fat police roared at me.

Two people pushed us onto the police car, Zhao Yanyan wasn’t handcuffed, but was also brought onto the car like a criminal.

As the car drove along the world, within a while, Liu Kesheng’s voice could be heard from the driving department, “Ye ge, get a few brothers to take care of them, ****, they dare to hit my people!”

Then it was the fat-*** who roared at me, “No problem, we’ll shut them into the interrogation room, then find a few young plain clothed police to give the two of them a massage.

“Hehe, thank you Captain Yang!” Liu Kesheng smiled.

Hearing the dirty talk of the two in front Guo Qing and I clenched our teeth in anger.

“****, this time we’re ******!” Guo Qing said angrily.

The current situation was indeed out of my expectations, I didn’t think Liu Kesheng would use relationships with the societies to deal with me. I had only thought of him as a kid at first, this was completely an assumption based on my previous life, because Liu Kesheng didn’t do anything big during the three years of high school. Since I had ben reborn, I messed up the original history, and a lot of things that didn’t happen happened to me.

“I’m sorry!” I said to Guo Qing, “It’s my fault that you’re arrested.”

“Boss, what are you saying! Worst come to worst I’ll just get beaten up once after getting there. If I hadn’t met you at the start, and you didn’t take me to learn sanda, then the current me wouldn’t exist. I might still be being beaten up by those idiots in our compound,” Guo Qing said emotionally.

“Good bro!” I patted Guo Qing’s shoulders movingly.

“What are the two of you doing, isn’t it raising goosebumps!” Zhao Yanyan mocked the two of us.

I only realized then that, from the start, Zhao Yanyan was sitting there calmly, as if she wasn’t worried about our current situation, like it was all as she expected.

Thus I asked Zhao Yanyan, “Yanyan, why aren’t you worried at all!”

Zhao Yanyan’s face showed a crafty smile, and she whispered beside my ear, “When I saw Liu Kesheng I felt something was wrong, and stealthily used the mobile in my backpack to call Uncle Zhang, he is probably rushing over to save us, he might even already be waiting for us in front of the police station.”

Although I was surprised about Zhao Yanyan bringing a mobile in her backpack, when I thought about what she had said before, that her father has a computer in his study, I felt like it wasn’t anything surprising, none of the people that could afford computers were normal, it wasn’t over the top to buy a mobile for their daughter.

“You mean your grandpa’s secretary? Can he save us?” I asked.

Zhao Yanyan nodded and replied, “You’ll find out later.”

The three of us were pushed into an interrogation room, the fat-*** called Yang-ge walked unreservedly in, and said to the police beside him, “Take the girl away, and tie her up alone in a room.”

The police came over and was about to pull Zhao Yanyan, when I blocked off the way in front of her.

“Brat. Mind your own business, or else I can kill you if I get anxious, do you believe me?” seeing my resistance, that fat-*** Yang shouted.

“This is committing a crime while knowing the law! Are you even worthy of being a police? Can go face the police emblem on your hat? Zhao Yanyan scolded without fear.

“Committing a crime while knowing the law? Then I’ll tell you, I am the law! If you aren’t the person that Liu-shaoye wants, then I would deal with you too!” Fat-*** Yang said unhappily.

Chapter 19 – Fight



My eye lips kept on jumping since the morning, of course, I wasn’t disregarding my excitement-caused insomnia as the reason, but I still felt that something was going to happen today.

As expected, the moment I came to school, trouble found me. Liu Kesheng walked over with a sneer, and through down an envelope that he took out from his sleeves, then walked away without turning his head.

I opened the envelope, and saw that there was actually a “letter of challenge” inside, it wrote:

Liu Lei:

See you in the woods after school, if you don’t dare to come then give up Zhao Yanyan! If you are a man then don’t tell the teacher.

Boring, I threw the letter on the table. This brat, he’s been watching too much TV shows! Did he think this was Meteor Garden⌈1⌋?

Zhao Yanyan picked up the letter, then said to me with care after reading it, “Liu Lei, I don’t want you to go.”

I smiled, “There’s no problem! What can he do to me?”

Yet Zhao Yanyan said, “Liu Kesheng and I were in the same middle school, although we weren’t in the same class, but I do know what he’s like. There was a time were a high school student pissed him off, he called a few delinquents from the societies and broke that student’s leg! The thing got really big!”

Leg got broken? I frowned and said, “Then that was it?” I know that aggravated battery resulting in disability was a big crime, even if he is a juvenile offender, it was enough to send him to juvenile detention.

Zhao Yanyan shook her head, “Liu Kesheng’s family does have a bit of background, I hear that they spend a lot of money and in the end the wounded’s family agreed to settle it privately, thus resolving the incident.”

Background! I suddenly understood, I committed a grave mistake. I only treated Liu Kesheng as a kid of ten-odd years old, but I forgot about his family background. From the looks of it, even if he beat me to death, I, as a child from a working class family, could only admit my misfortune! However, if I don’t go then would I appear too cowardly?

I made up my mind, and clenched my teeth, what was the purpose of me getting reborn? Isn’t it for Zhao Yanyan? If I was forced to leave Zhao Yanyan, then reborn for what! Worst come to worst, I’ll fight till either one of us dies.

Thus I hardened my heart and said to Zhao Yanyan, “Don’t care about things between men.”

“Oh!” Zhao Yanyan nodded like a chagrined little woman, and didn’t say anymore.

After a while, Guo Qing arrived. I handed over Liu Kesheng’s letter of challenge to him. I didn’t think the first thing this brat would say to me after reading it was, “Boss? You got the school beauty?” His words did not avoid Zhao Yanyan, who was sitting beside me at the time.

I coughed a few times, only then did Guo Qing notice that his voice was too loud.

I pointed at the letter of challenge and asked, “Guo Qing, what do you think?”

“What do I think?” Guo Qing stomped his foot, “He is ******* riding on our heads, he doesn’t seem to know his place without us showing him some colours.”

I looked at Guo Qing in amazement, this guy was as cowardly as a mouse in my previous life, he didn’t even dare to fart when he got bullied, what happened? Could it be that I coincidentally took this guy to earn sanda, and this guy’s personality changed completely after teaching his old enemy a lesson? That seems very plausible. I asked, “Are you going after school?”

“Of course!” Guo Qing cracked his knuckles, “Boss, can I not go if you’re going? It just so happens that my hands have ben itching these few days, so I want to start practicing on a few people.”

The day past by really quickly for me, because I didn’t sleep well the previous night, I fell asleep in a faze, it was nearly the end of school when I woke up.

But the day passed by like a year for Zhao Yanyan, who got worried for me the entire day, she kept on getting distracted in class, and she didn’t even hear when the teacher called her name.

After school, I told Zhao Yanyan to go home first, but this chick refused no matter what, and was determined to wait in the classroom for me. There’s no helping it, I could only go along with it.

Guo Qing and I walked unreservedly into the woods, Liu Kesheng was already waiting here. Behind him were four delinquents with dyed hair.

Seeing me come, Liu Kesheng immediately signaled the people behind him and walked over acting infinitely pretentious.

Liu Kesheng shouted, “Liu Lei, you’re got guts! You dared to come to the woods with just two people!”

Before I could say anything, Guo Qing said in annoyance, “****, why do you have so much bullshit. Gang fight or solo?”

Liu Kesheng smiled instead of getting angry, “Fine! You’re getting all pretentious in front of me right? These no one that’ll disturb us in the woods, do you believe that I can kill you?”
郭庆可没那么好耐性听他唧唧歪歪,估计这小子的手早就痒痒了,正愁没有人给他当靶子呢。冲过去就是一记侧踢,把刘克胜给踹了个狗啃泥。这个侧踢是讲究技术性的,没想到星期六刚学完这小子就给练成了。
Guo Qing didn’t have the patience to listen to his chitchat, this brat’s hands were most likely itching, and was annoyed that no one could be used as a sandbag. He side kicked the moment he rushed over, kicking Liu Kesheng into a dog tasting mud. This side kick needed technique, I didn’t think that this brat managed to finish training what he just learnt on Saturday.

Liu Keshng didn’t think this person would fight the moment he says fight, there were no omen at all. Originally he had prepared tons of things to mock Liu Lei, but he was kicked around before he even said anything. Liu Kesheng said frantically to the delinquents behind him, “What are you spacing out for? Go!”Only then did the delinquents reacted, and surrounded Guo Qing and me.

Seeing their physiques, I got the general gist of things, yellow-faced and lacking muscles, typical over-indulgence. They’re just able to scare people from their appearance, but will end up being the one beaten up when in a fight. I said to Guo Qing, “Are you fine by yourself?”

Guo Qing said confidently, “Boss, don’t worry!”

Hearing my words, the delinquents looked mockingly at Guo Qing, one of them shouted, “Little ****, you don’t need to act so arrogant, there’s time for you to cry alter!”

The other ones also said, “——————“

But I didn’t get to hear what he said, because before he even made a sound, Guo Qing threw a punch on his jaw.

As expected, they didn’t let me down, the rascals are only able to scare primary school kids, Guo Qing beat them all onto the floor without much difficulty.

I walked to Liu Kesheng’s side, and said coldly to him, “Don’t have any ideas about Zhao Yanyan anymore, or else I’ll make you die horribly! I’ll repeat once again, this is not an empty threat, you can give it a shot if you don’t believe me!”

After that, Guo Qing and I walked dashingly out of the words, it was like in Wuxia TV shows, two heroes walking out of the forest at dusk, with multiple corpses lying behind them.

Suddenly, I remembered that the chick Zhao Yanyan was still waiting for me in the classroom, I rapidly ran towards the classroom.

“Wait for me, Boss!’ Guo Qing was indulging in the confident atmosphere, seeing me suddenly run, he immediately shouted behind me.



 

Chapter 18 – What is my reward?



Hearing Liu Kesheng’s actions in the staff office, I really felt angry, but Zhao Yanyan tried to convince me otherwise, “Liu Kesheng is very narrow-minded and is very sinister, try not to piss him off from now on.”

I didn’t really care after hearing that, I’m already thirty-something, why should I be scared of a nipper of ten-odd years? Aside from telling on me, I doubt he can manage to do anything. However at this time, I made a serious mistake, and ignored Liu Keshng’s family background.

After school, Zhao Yanyan and I walked side by side into the woods behind school. This was originally a small garden, but as the new Huaxia developed, the education industry became one of the top industries, as one of Songjiang’s key high schools, Fourth High naturally had a lot of influence, just with the principle saying that the school was too small, the garden became the territory of Fourth High. Obviously, this situation paled in comparison to when I attended university in my previous life, I had heard that entire streets in some cities were segmented into universities for them to construct buildings.

“How are you going to reward me?” I walked leisurely in the woods, holding Zhao Yanyan’s hand.

“Guess!” Zhao Yanyan winked, and said playfully.

“It can’t be with your body right?” a lecherous smile surfaced on my face.

“What are you saying! Being so not serious,” before she finished, Zhao Yanyan’s little fists rained down upon me.

After messing around for a while, Zhao Yanyan stopped. She opened her eyes wide, and looked at me with sparkles in her eyes. Then said with deep love, “Liu Lei ——“

“What?”

“Close your eyes,” Zhao Yanyan said quietly.

I closed my eyes. I could feel Zhao Yanyan quickly pecked me on my lips, when I opened my eyes again, Zhao Yanyan had already jumped away, her face was like a huge persimmon.

However, how could I let go of such a great opportunity, I immediately ran over and grabbed her, and wrapped my arms rightly around her.

Zhao Yanyan didn’t struggle, her embarrassed face showed a slightly bit of excitement. Lying in my arms, she closed her eyes.

I gazed at Zhao Yanyan’s tender face, and kissed her kips without any hesitation.

Zhao Yanyan didn’t refuse, nor did she respond, her lips were closed.

Although this was also my first kiss, there was no lack of knowledge about this sort of thing on the Internet, have I never seen pigs run despite not having eaten pork⌈1⌋? I tried to use my tongue to separate Zhao Yanyan’s closed teeth, used one hand to hold her, while the other one started touching all over that beautiful body.“Don’t——“ Zhao Yanyan only said a word, but her mouth opened.

My tongue took this chance and went inside, intertwining with her’s…

What I didn’t know was that, the scene of Zhao Yanyan and I kissing, fell into a single person’s sight…

When Zhao Yanyan and I separated while panting, I knew, from that moment on, we had both fallen. Zhao Yanyan dipped her head, then walked shyly but intimately with me out of school.

When we neared the gate, Zhao Yanyan said to me, “I’ll leave first, Uncle Zhang is outside, don’t let him see.”

I nodded, and let her leave first.

From behind the fake hill in the woods, a figure appeared, he gazed sinisterly at the fleeting shadows, and said with disgust, “**** this! Just a coquettish X and you’re pretending to be all high and mighty with me, this *****!”

“Hello, is it Secretary Yu? I’m Liu Kesheng,” Liu Kesheng dialed a number with a phone form his backpack.

“Aiya, it’s Liu-shaoye! Speak, what can big brother do for you?” hearing that it was his boss’s son, Secretary Yu immediately said sycophantically.

“Ah, I want you to help me find a few people from the societies,” Liu Kesheng said.

“What? Did someone cause trouble for you?” Secretary Yu asked anxiously.

“No, I just want to deal with someone!” Liu Kesheng explained.

“Hehe, no problem! But who is this person? He dares to piss off our Childe Liu, is he tired of living!” from Secretary Yu’s perspective, the person that pissed off Liu Kesheng has already been sentenced to death.

“Don’t tell my dad about this!” Liu Kesheng reminded.

“Don’t worry, leave it all to big brother! I’ll tell the people to go after your school ends, and get them to call you when they’re there. They’ll listen to your orders, but don’t cause any deaths, or else it’ll be hard to explain to your father,” Secretary Yu said confidently.

“That’s fine! I’ll leave it at that, I’ll definitely say a some goods things about you in front of my dad!” Liu Kesheng replied.

“Hehe, then I’ll thank Liu-shaoye for his kind words!” Secretary Yu smiled and hung up.

Heh! Compete with me? You didn’t even look at my, Liu Kesheng’s, ability, I didn’t want to play you to death, but blame it on that woman at your side! I’ll definitely beat you until you start looking for teeth on the ground!

Liu Kesheng angrily spat onto the ground.

Chapter 17 – I want to keep it



Looking at the test paper in front of her, the more Ye Xiaoxiao looks at it the more surprised she felt. In the Chinese to English translation question, he actually wrote down the multiple tenses of a word as well as it’s synonyms, and in the multiple choice and reading comprehension questions, the answers were exactly the same as the model answers! Ye Xiaoxiao couldn’t believe that this was a test paper completed by a student just entering high school in ten minutes.

When Ye Xiaoxiao told this to the three students, Zhao Yanyan’s face lit up with happiness, Xie Wei didn’t react, only Liu Kesheng said despicably, “Ye-laoshi, there’s eighty percent chance that he copied it! A bad student, that sleeps all day, he’s able to answer this test paper, who would believe it? Haha!”

Ye Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Kesheng with dissatisfaction, although Ye Xiaoxiao didn’t truly believe Liu Lei could have down this test paper, the truth was in front of her eyes. Copied? Who could he have copied from in ten minutes? From the book? Ye Xiaoxiao made the test paper herself, it doesn’t exist in the book! Ye Xiaoxiao picked up the red pen without hesitation, and wrote three large numbers on Liu Lei’s test paper —— 100.

Ai! Ye Xiaoxiao sighed, the impression of Liu Kesheng in her heart went down a notch again. It appears that the class leaders she have chosen weren’t anything spectacular, she’ll need to find a chance to elect them again.

After marking the papers, Ye Xiaoxiao got Liu Kesheng and Xie Wei to return first, and kept Zhao Yanyan back by herself.

“Have you seen Liu Lei study English by himself?” Ye Xiaoxiao asked impatiently, she couldn’t understand how a student that would always sleep in class could get full marks on the tst paper.
赵颜妍摇了摇头:“我从来没看见他学过英语,他的英语书还是新的,放在书桌里从来没翻过。”
Zhao Yanyan shook her head, “I’ve never seen him study English, his English textbook is still brand new, it’s in his drawer and has never been touched.

Although Zhao Yanyan was also curious as to how Liu Lei could get 100 marks in ten minutes, she didn’t think too much about it. This boy beside her was always able to bring her surprises, like that time in the math lesson, and the typing speed of three hundred something alphabets per minute, as to why he was able to do that, Zhao Yanyan didn’t care, she had the complete mindset of a maiden in love, no matter what, Liu Lei will be her only lover.

In truth, Ye Xiaoxiao had a complete grasp of Liu Lei’s normal actions, the question she asked Zhao Yanyan just now was just to double check.

Zhao Yanyan acted like she won the lottery, and happily flew over to my side, “Liu Lei, you actually got 100 marks, the highest in our class!”

Zhao Yanyan looked like she was even happier than getting 100 marks herself. What kind of woman wouldn’t want their loved one to be the best?

I already predicted this result, heck, if I don’t get 100 in this kind of paper, then I’m retarded.

Zhao Yanyan saw that I didn’t have the excited expression that she thought I would, so she said disappointedly, “Why do you always look like you don’t care about anything?”

What was there to be excited about getting 100 marks in a high school English test? What I cared about definitely wasn’t my paper, I said in a tone full of expectations, “My Yanyan, can you please tell me what reward you’re going to give me?”

Zhao Yanyan immediately blushed after hearing that, and said in a tiny voice beside my year, “I’ll tell you after school.”

I had a puzzled expression, what kind of reward was it to have to be told after school!

After Ye Xiaoxiao announced the test rewards, the entire class roared, and all looked at me in a weird expression, as if looking at a monster.

Zhao Yanyan sat on my side while smiling, as if she was the one who got 100 marks. However, Zhao Yanyan’s result was just slightly lower than mine, at 98 marks. After that was Liu Kesheng, Xie Wei and co..

Guo Qing complained about how unfair it was with his test paper of 59 marks, “Boss, you actually got 100 without even learning, I didn’t even pass even after intently listening in class and finishing my homework on time.”

Thus I said a sentence that stopped Guo Qing, “I guessed it!”

After the test papers were handed out, before I even touched it, it was snatched away by Zhao Yanyan.

“What is it?” I asked in puzzlement.

“I want to keep it!” Zhao Yanyan folded the test paper up carefully and placed it on her backpack.

I didn’t have anything in my hands when Ye Xiaoxiao went through the paper, but even if I did I wouldn’t look at it. I would rather use this time to continue planning my input method.

I thought about it, the current Huaxia was still using the DOS system. Using the experience from my previous life, in the next few years, Windows wouldn’t become too popular. When it is finally popularized, that’s only after Windows 98 gets released. The companies were still using a combination of UCDOS + WPS or CCED. But who would have thought, after a few years, the word processing WPS that have once been used in over half the country would begin to fade from people’s sights, and be replaced by Microsoft’s all rounded Office combination.

Office, a inspiration flashed across my mind!

What would happen if I introduce a DOS version of the Office software? From a technological point of view, this wasn’t a problem, I had also participated many times in the development and internal testing of Office products in my previous life, and had a good understanding of its functions. However, even if I could make it, can I take over the market? I had full confidence in the functions of the product, and it would definitely be more than the current WPS and CCED, but how can I make it be accepted by people quickly?

If this program can be popularized, I believe that as long as I introduce a Windows version in the future at an appropriate time, most people will not give up the familiar interface to choose Office. The reason that WPS loses it’s advantages in the Windows operating system, is because it was released just a bit slower than Office, causing the work software market to be monopolized.

This would mean that, the work software market in Huaxia will be my haven from now on.

Ai! I sighed, if I could form a relationship with governmental departments, with a large purchase from the government, then everything would be solved. However, I come from a working class family, I don’t have the money nor the relationship, it is extremely difficult to get to know people working in the government.

It seems like I have to take it step by step, if I can sell my input method for a good price, then quite a bit of problems could be solved when I have money.
