The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 836 - 329: The Phoenix Man’s Rebirth (Part 13)_3

However, having the experience from a past life, He Jingtian himself had also been successful, helping relatives and neighbors from his hometown.

Therefore, he understood the psychology of a "Superior" very well—I can give, but you cannot demand, and you absolutely cannot treat me like a fool!

The more independent and self-reliant He Jingtian appeared in front of Su Xuezhou, the more benefits he could gain from Su Xuezhou.

Inner voice:... As expected of you, no matter how many times you’ve been reborn, you’re a bastard!

He Jingtian had grown tired of arguing with his inner voice.

However, He Jingtian still valued the occasional reminders from his inner voice.

For instance, he couldn’t give up his translation work, or become arrogant and reckless... He Jingtian listened to all of this and strived to execute it.

"And Su Anqi. You said you wanted to compensate her, but I’m not letting you pursue her. This doesn’t mean you should stop caring about her!"

The voice in his heart continued its reminders.

He Jingtian paused for a moment, and indeed, he realized he had been too busy recently.

He was busy taking care of his real mother and making money, and when his uncle came, he also had to busy himself with making a good impression on him.

He had almost forgotten about Su Anqi and the promises he made after his rebirth.

Compensation?

Uh, alright, in a past life he did let Angel down.

In this life, even if they couldn’t be a couple, for the sake of their past feelings, he should help her more.

With this thought, while He Jingtian was busy preparing for the TOEFL test, he didn’t forget to pay some attention to Su Anqi.

Su Anqi seemed to have become more mature, steady, and also more charming than before.

She was already beautiful and having a good father like Professor Su, she was considered a goddess-level figure on the S University campus.

This time, without He Jingtian’s fervent pursuit, there were still several boys who expressed their affection for Su Anqi.

Among them were one or two boys with decent qualities who started a pursuit of Su Anqi.

But at that time, immersed in QY romance novels, Su Anqi was supposed to be at the most dreamy stage.

If a decent Prince Charming came to pursue her, even if she wouldn’t fall into love quickly, she should feel shy, her heart should flutter.

Yet, after observing Su Anqi secretly for a few days, He Jingtian discovered that Su Anqi no longer had the dreamy innocence of a little girl in her eyes, but rather a determination and clarity of a mature woman.

What happened?

Has Su Anqi also changed, and is no longer love-struck?!

"Anqi, you really want to take the graduate exams, don’t you? It’s so hard to take them!"

"Yeah, now being a college student is difficult enough, why pursue higher education?"

Not only was He Jingtian surprised, but even the roommates who spent every day with Su Anqi were a bit puzzled.

"There is no end to learning! Learning more will never hurt!"

Su Anqi felt that in her past life, she lacked ambition, getting married right after graduating from college and having children soon after.

She had no career, no personal space, apart from her parents, her husband, and children, she was trapped in a small family.

Even if He Jingtian hadn’t cheated, as he grew more successful, there was less common ground for them to talk about.

If a couple can’t even have conversations, they will eventually become strangers.

Su Anqi wasn’t saying that He Jingtian’s cheating was her fault, rather she was self-reflecting.

Having been reborn, she needed to live a brand-new, different self!

In her past life, she was a full-time housewife for over a decade; this time, she wanted to be an independent, strong, and composed career woman.

She didn’t want to be a parasite dependent only on her parents and husband, but rather a pride to her parents.

She would not be weak anymore; even if she met another wrong man with bad eyesight, she wouldn’t allow a scumbag to make her miserable.

If she dies, only her loving parents and children would truly grieve!

... Of course, marriage, children, those are stories for the future; Su Anqi wants to enrich herself while she’s supposed to be studying.

Additionally, Su Anqi leveraged her advantage of rebirth to make some investments.

She had an upper hand over He Jingtian from her past life; she was the only daughter and had been pampered since childhood.

There was no need to ask her parents for help; with her saved pocket money and New Year’s money, she could gather the initial funds for investment.

The first pot of gold, naturally, came from stocks.

Last year, the Shanghai Stock Exchange officially opened, and in the past two years, stocks have been all the rage.

In the words of later generations, even fools could make money.

Su Anqi wasn’t foolish; she had the memories of a future life, so she knew about stocks with exceptionally high returns.

Two months before, after confirming her rebirth, Su Anqi, once her excitement subsided, began to plan.

One weekend, she used the money she had saved over the years, went to Shanghai, and with only the return fare left, bought all the stocks.

Two months later, her stocks had already increased by more than double.

If her memory was correct, this surge would continue until next year, with a return rate of over 800%!

With this money, Su Anqi could purchase several old houses; even waiting for them to be demolished would be enough to ensure a worry-free life.

Of course, Su Anqi refused to be a deadbeat; she wanted to pursue graduate exams, to start her own business, never wasting her rebirth opportunity...
