Chapter 101: I Will Help You Change Your Destiny
Looking at Guo Shuai sitting across from him, with a blissful expression on his face, going on and on.
Chen Fan's heart was in turmoil, but his face remained calm.
He remembered that in his previous life, during the winter break of his freshman year in college, he learned from his mother that Guo Shuai had failed the college entrance exam and ended up attending a vocational high school.
During his time in school, he got into a fight over a girl and accidentally left the other person disabled. Guo Shuai was sentenced to a year and six months in prison.
After being released from prison, his personality changed drastically, and his life was completely ruined.
Chen Fan had seen Guo Shuai once during a break from school, but by then, Guo Shuai was no longer the good friend he had known.
As for the reason why Guo Shuai had been imprisoned initially, Chen Fan couldn't remember clearly.
He only recalled that it seemed to have happened at a sports stadium, where Guo Shuai had gotten into a fight with another person pursuing the same girl...
Looking at Guo Shuai sitting in front of him, Chen Fan felt uncertain.
In his previous life, Guo Shuai had attended a vocational high school, but in this life, he had been admitted to a third-tier university.
Logically speaking, his life had already changed.
He wouldn't even encounter the girl he had liked in his previous life.
So the incident that had occurred in his previous life, where he had disabled someone, should not happen either, right?
But suddenly hearing Guo Shuai mention something about a sports stadium, Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
What if... even with a one in a million chance, the misfortune from his previous life were to happen to Guo Shuai again? How would he deal with that?
Should he let Guo Shuai go to prison again?
Guo Shuai was a very important friend to Chen Fan.
He didn't want his friend to experience the same situation as in his previous life.
After weighing his options, Chen Fan suddenly smiled and spoke up.
"Listening to you go on and on, it seems like you really like her."
"Hehehe." Guo Shuai scratched his head in slight embarrassment.
"You're absolutely right about that."
"There are some people, where the moment you lay eyes on them, you get this feeling that the two of you are meant to be together, that she's the one for you in this lifetime..."
Chen Fan's mind instantly recalled Su Ruochu.
Guo Shuai's description aligned perfectly with his own thoughts.
However, Chen Fan mocked him with a laugh, "Yeah, yeah, don't be so sour. What's this 'she's the one for you in this lifetime' nonsense? How old are you? Wait until you meet a 36D bombshell next time, and let's see if your heart still doesn't skip a beat."
"Of course it will skip a beat," Guo Shuai brazenly admitted.
"But even if my heart skips a beat, a man can be attracted to thousands of women, but the one he's willing to marry might just be that one."
Chen Fan gave him a thumbs up.
"Impressive."
"This is the first time I've heard someone describe being a playboy in such a refreshing and elegant way."
"By the way, what's the name of the girl you like?"
"Liu Lingling, she practices dance and aerobics, with a really great figure," Guo Shuai said, almost drooling again.
Chen Fan smiled.
"From the way you talk her up, I'm actually getting interested."
"You mentioned a performance at some sports stadium. When is that happening?"
"Early next month."
"Let me know the details, and I'll go with you to check it out."
"Really?" Guo Shuai immediately became excited.
Chen Fan took out his phone. "Give me your number."
"Wow, you really are rich now. You even have a phone."
Guo Shuai took out his phone and looked at it. "Damn, it's even more expensive than mine."
The two exchanged numbers, and Chen Fan put his phone away.
His plan was simple. Regardless of whether the events from his previous life would occur or not, he would accompany Guo Shuai and stay by his side. If Guo Shuai got into a fight, Chen Fan would immediately step in and stop him.
He absolutely could not let the tragedy from his previous life play out again.
Chen Fan looked up at Guo Shuai.
Good friend, in this life, I will help you change your destiny.
As the two walked out of the internet cafe, Chen Fan turned to Guo Shuai.
"You're really not going to take this manager position?"
Guo Shuai smiled and shook his head.
"I told you, don't tempt me anymore, or I might change my mind on the spot."
The two looked at each other and laughed. Guo Shuai said seriously, "Brother, I just want to pursue love right now."
"But don't worry, even if I don't become your manager, I can come here often to keep an eye on things."
"If anything happens, I'll be the first to call you."
Chen Fan said seriously, "Whether you accept it or not, you have a 20% stake in this internet cafe that I'm holding for you."
Guo Shuai laughed heartily.
"Good brother, that's very kind of you."
"If I ever run into major trouble someday and come to you for refuge, you can't turn me away..."
Chen Fan smiled and shook his head.
"I won't."
"Alright, I'm off."
Guo Shuai waved his hand. "Now that we all have phones, it's easy to stay in touch. Remember to call me often."
Watching Guo Shuai leave, Chen Fan turned and looked at the internet cafe behind him.
Since Guo Shuai had refused his offer,
Who should he find then?
Ma Xiaoshuai?
To be honest, among their roommates, Ma Xiaoshuai had the best relationship with Chen Fan currently.
However, after chatting with Guo Shuai, Chen Fan hesitated.
He valued his friendship with Ma Xiaoshuai.
If he were to have Ma Xiaoshuai come here as the manager, Ma Xiaoshuai would become his employee.
Even if Chen Fan didn't mind, Ma Xiaoshuai would likely feel uncomfortable.
This could be seen from Luo Wenjie's attitude towards Chen Fan lately.
Luo Wenjie, with his casual and outgoing personality, had become much more respectful towards Chen Fan, not to mention Ma Xiaoshuai.
Chen Fan shook his head.
He decisively rejected this idea.
As for the choice of manager, he would have to think it over some more.
......
Chen Fan received a call from Su Ruochu, Zhou Honghai had arrived at Yunhai.
Su Ruochu had arranged to have lunch with him today.
After hanging up, Chen Fan immediately ran back to the dorm and changed into clean clothes.
It wasn't that he particularly valued Zhou Honghai as a person, but when Chen Fan was struggling and broke during the summer, Zhou Honghai had given him a helping hand in starting his business.
If it weren't for Zhou Honghai agreeing to let Chen Fan use his computer for free at that time, Chen Fan's Yuming.com wouldn't have been created so quickly.
So, from this perspective, Chen Fan was very grateful to Zhou Honghai.
When he arrived at the women's dormitory building, Su Ruochu was already waiting there.
She hadn't dressed up, wearing a pair of jeans, a woolen knit sweater, and sneakers, with her long hair tied back in a ponytail, looking very girl-next-door.
"My wife is so beautiful."
Su Ruochu rolled her eyes, seemingly already immune to Chen Fan's smooth-talking ways.
She reached out and gently linked her arm with Chen Fan's, and the two headed to the Fukouju restaurant outside the campus.
Chen Fan had agreed to treat for this meal today.
So Chen Fan had chosen a relatively upscale restaurant.
After chatting in the private room for about twenty minutes, the door opened.
Zhou Honghai walked in with a smile on his face.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm late."
Suddenly seeing Chen Fan, Zhou Honghai paused for a moment.
"You... Chen Fan?"
His gaze swept back and forth between Chen Fan and Su Ruochu's faces.
Zhou Honghai suddenly shook his head with a wry smile.
"So you two really are together."
"I had a feeling there was something going on between you two back then."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "Welcome to Yunhai."
Zhou Honghai walked over and shook Chen Fan's hand.
"Congratulations, you've snatched away the most beautiful playmate from our childhood."
"Treat her well."
Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "I will."
"Brother Honghao, have a seat and let's chat."
Su Ruochu invited him.
Zhou Honghai smiled and pulled out a chair to sit down, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them.
"Last time, Ruochu tried to cover it up, saying you two weren't dating."
Su Ruochu's face turned a bit red as she glanced shyly at Chen Fan.
Zhou Honghai teased with a smile, "So, have you two told your parents about your relationship yet?"
