Can following the rules be called rebirth?

Chapter 73, Section 71: The ending should include a movie.
"Haha, you have a pretty clear understanding of your own position."

Gu Caiwei giggled. The girl's profile was reflected in the window, her dimples like wine cups kissed by the twilight.

An eighteen-year-old girl, of course, couldn't sense Zhou Mingyuan's ambition.

It is also difficult to analyze from just a few words what the so-called "treating everyone equally" actually means.

But she possesses an innate intuition.

Intuition compelled Gu Caiwei to continue speaking.

"Being her dining buddy might not be easy."

"Does that mean you often eat with us two sisters?"

The girl rolled up her sleeves, reached out to brush aside the stray hairs fluttering at her temples, picked up a crayfish, and lowered her head to add.

"Little Lychee might not be willing."

"I see."

Turning his gaze away, Zhou Mingyuan also put on gloves and busied himself with the spicy crayfish in front of him.

He didn't finish his sentence until he had removed a piece of shrimp meat.

"Whatever you're willing to do."

Lobster restaurants are, of course, more than just places to eat lobster.

Classic best-selling cold noodles, spicy tangerine peel chicken, all-flavor shrimp balls, served with mini barbecue.
One by one, small plates were brought out by the waiters. The food was delicious and Gu Caiwei ate with great enjoyment, gradually relaxing herself.

She told you too.

The spicy flavor was surprisingly delicious, and the two bottles of Pink Elephant were quickly finished. The girl opened a new bottle, and her cheeks flushed.

She talked about her best friend's recent little troubles.

"Well, it's just a suggestion, but Li Zhi's family is quite strict, and I don't think they would agree to her renting a place to live outside."

"It would be better if he stayed at my house every now and then."

"It's convenient anyway."

The girl took off her disposable gloves and wiped her hands with a wet wipe.

She gently tossed her hair, bit the hair tie on her wrist, slightly raised her chin, gathered her cascading brown hair with one hand, and used the other hand to lift the hair tie and tie it together.

These may seem like unintentional little gestures from a girl, but combined with her face and the charming allure that shines through her every move, she is truly captivating.

It makes people unconsciously focus their attention.

"Staying at your place?"

"Yes, my dad was worried that I wouldn't be used to living at school, so he bought a house in Jiangcheng before the start of the semester."

Gu Caiwei tossed her ponytail aside, changed her gloves, and continued peeling shrimp with great enthusiasm.

"It's just that I don't go there often."

"."

Zhou Mingyuan was taken aback before he realized what was happening.

The person sitting across from me was hardly the charming and beautiful girl next door.
She's a genuine heiress from Shanghai!
For Gu Caiwei's family, buying a house in Jiangcheng would be as easy as buying home appliances for an ordinary person.

Seeing Gu Caiwei's completely indifferent expression, he realized for the first time that being reborn was actually quite interesting.

At least in his previous life, Attorney Zhou indeed had very little chance of getting to know girls like this.

This type of person either goes abroad for further studies at a young age, or has everything arranged for them by their family, or takes a considerable sum of money to complete several rounds of entrepreneurship.

In short, she is unlikely to get entangled with a middle-aged man.

Haven't you considered studying abroad?

Zhou Mingyuan asked curiously.

"Well, Dad would like me to go, but Mom doesn't quite agree."

Gu Caiwei raised her head: "Both of them respected me and came to ask for my opinion, but in the end, I just didn't really want to go."

Why don't you want to go?

"I find it boring to have a life planned out for you by others."

Gu Caiwei spread her hands, her expression becoming more serious.

"Of course I know that going abroad has its advantages; my dad once made plans with me."

"Go abroad to study at the University of Pennsylvania or Columbia University, come back to continue in the pilot program, get a job in the xx department according to policy, accumulate experience, and then jump to another field."

"Taking shortcuts may be easy, but I'm not interested in an easy version of life."

"I like to work hard little by little, that's when I feel a greater sense of accomplishment."

As the girl spoke, she suddenly smiled. "Besides, Xiaolizhi and I are like sisters, so going to university with her is definitely more interesting than going abroad."

"That's it"

Staring into Gu Caiwei's bright eyes, Zhou Mingyuan was speechless for a moment, and couldn't help but fall into a long memory.

Compared to the arrogant and domineering second-generation rich kids of later generations, she was surprisingly pure.

What are most of those people like?
Those with connections break down the door, while those without can't even touch the threshold.

The stage was brightly lit, while the audience was drenched in sweat and toil.

As for those deleted web pages, withdrawn papers, and changed introductions, they are nothing more than underwear revealed after the costume is lifted, filth that cannot be hidden and absurdity that cannot be concealed.

The paper window could not conceal the flickering candlelight, while the silver shop echoed with the barking of dogs.

Some people play the flute while drunk, while others recite the name of apricot in their dreams.

Working in the legal profession for a long time inevitably leads to facing some brutal realities.

Zhou Mingyuan once asked himself this question.

Why do we run so desperately, and even urge our descendants to run desperately as well? Who are we trying to catch up with?
Who can catch up with?

He had only seen a corner of the Heavenly Palace, so he could only remain silent.

"Why aren't you talking?"

Gu Caiwei smiled, reached out, moved her hand over the plate opposite her, then spread it out and waved it in front of the man.

There was an extra peeled shrimp ball on the plate.

"No, no, I just suddenly realized that you're a really nice person."

As Zhou Mingyuan was still marveling, the brown-haired girl in front of him suddenly clenched her teeth and furrowed her brows slightly.

"Friend card?"

"Good-looking ones are good."

Emotional intelligence means knowing when to make amends and when to change the subject.

So Zhou Mingyuan immediately spoke up.

"Shrimp Ball, don't bother. You're clumsy and slow. Go and deal with the big ones."

"I'll take care of these."

Next, the two clearly divided their tasks.

Gu Caiwei peeled the crayfish, while Zhou Mingyuan took care of the small shrimp balls on the edges and corners. They shared the food harmoniously.

Their hands, gloved, dangled freely, but their arms kept bumping into each other.

Even through their skin, they could feel the warmth of the person next to them.

It wasn't until all the food on the table was cleared away that Gu Caiwei realized that all her plans had long since vanished into thin air.

She didn't expect that once she started chatting with Zhou Mingyuan, the conversation wouldn't stop.

Both of them have the personality to keep the conversation going, laughing and joking about everything under the sun, their jokes and memes can seamlessly jump from the South Pole to the North Pole.

The image is long gone!
Not only did she sneez and wipe her eyes in front of Zhou Mingyuan, but she also couldn't finish the ice cream in her cup, and with a red face, she simply shook her head and begged for forgiveness.

The first date was completely different from the elegant princess I had imagined.

Overall, though, I had a super happy time.

I was much happier than I had imagined.

I was happy to pay the bill, happy to chat with him, and even happy to gossip about Li Zhi's embarrassing moments.
Everything was very happy.

The two walked out of Liangliang Steamed Shrimp, and the sun was already setting outside.

As darkness fell, the crescent moon shone brightly in the night sky, its soft light enveloping the iconic sphere above Optics Valley Square.

The colorful neon lights splashed like water under the feet of pedestrians. Zhou Mingyuan and Gu Caiwei walked side by side. If they calmed down, they could hear each other's footsteps. The next second, a car honked and drove by.

Silence and noise coexist.

"Would you like to go see a movie?"

As she walked, Gu Caiwei slowed her pace, raised her arm to gather her wind-blown hair, and looked around with bright eyes.

It was all written clearly in the notes.

A perfect date definitely needs a movie.

Then, she paused for a moment, and her soft, sweet voice rang out in the air.
