Chapter 9 Bad Women Never Get a Good Death

Before me were walls and ceilings neatly covered with newspapers.

The sun shone through the window, warming my body.

He was certain that this was his home from forty years ago, not a dark, desolate, and cold prison.

Jiang Baohai breathed a sigh of relief.

He lay relaxed on the bed, staring blankly at the light dancing on the windowpane for a while.

He finally regained full consciousness.

Those narrow eyes glanced at the beauty standee on the bedside table.

The sixteenth day of the first lunar month was specially circled in red.

What was supposed to happen that day did indeed occur as expected.

This convinced him that everything followed the same trajectory as in his previous life.

Yes, that's right.

He was reborn, returning to forty years ago.

When he first risked taking out a high-interest loan to contract a small coal mine.

Having weathered many storms, Jiang Baohai calmly accepted the facts in just three seconds.

He put on a leather jacket, sunglasses, and gleaming Wenzhou leather shoes, and strode towards the mine with a briefcase full of cash.

He was the richest man in Southwest China who lived to be 65 in his previous life and spent half a year in prison studying because of a woman in his later years.

He is shrewd, decisive, and meticulous in his work.

In less than six months, they quietly acquired half of the state-owned coal mines around the county town that had been transformed.

He became the first household in Qing County to have 100,000 yuan.

However, people prefer to call him a "nouveau riche."

During the six months since his rebirth, Jiang Baohai has thought of nothing but making money.

Until New Year's Eve, my mother suddenly came over with a black and white photograph.

She excitedly told him that she wanted to introduce him to someone.

Jiang Baohai picked up the photo and looked at it.

The beautiful face in the photo instantly stirred up his dead memories.

Gao, Qing, He!
As Jiang Baohai silently uttered these three words, his teeth chattered loudly.

During the six months he spent in prison in his previous life, there was one thing he did every day without fail.

That is to curse Gao Qinghe, the woman who caused a 65-year-old man to weep behind bars.

No! Fine! Die!
I don't know if it was his curse that worked.

He actually got back to forty years ago.

Jiang Baohai originally didn't intend to argue with a woman.

In the six months since his rebirth, he has even deliberately avoided thinking about this woman.

To my utter surprise, her mother actually brought her photo back.

Looking at the smiling woman in the photo, Jiang Baohai ignored it and tossed the photo aside.

"Let's meet."

He bet she definitely wouldn't come on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month!
Because this woman stood him up in his past life.

When Mother happily returned after discussing the auspicious date with the matchmaker.

The date he mentioned coincided perfectly with the time in his previous life.

Jiang Baohai verbally agreed that he would definitely go.

When that day finally came, I simply lay down in the mine dormitory and slept soundly for the entire day.

In the evening, his men returned from the county park.

He said that he hadn't seen the girl in the photo at all all day.

Jiang Baohai smiled sarcastically, "Just as I thought."

On second thought, Gao Qinghe in this life is just a twenty-year-old girl, and nothing has happened yet.

It's rather unfair that I hold a grudge against myself.

forget it.

Jiang Baohai told himself to be more magnanimous and not to argue with a young girl.

In this life, we'll go our separate ways, each going our own way.

No one gets in anyone's way.

But looking at the bright, handsome young face in the mirror...

Damn, he's only twenty-five!
Why can't I hold a grudge against a young girl?
Wasn't God giving him a second chance at life so that he could avenge his humiliation?
The next morning, Jiang Baohai immediately drove his newly bought bright red Xiali from the mine back home.

He slammed the heavy briefcase onto the table!
"You've wasted a whole day of my time! Do you know how many deals I'll lose and how much money I'll earn if I waste this day? Are you kidding me?" Jiang's mother was shocked to find out that her son had been stood up.

However, being mild-mannered by nature, she wasn't too angry.

She thought to herself that if the other person didn't come, it must be because they didn't like her son, so she should try someone else.

Jiang Baohai, however, became stubborn and demanded an explanation.

Jiang's mother had no choice but to say, "Then I'll call and ask tomorrow."

"Just now."

Jiang Baohai glanced at the clock on the wall; it was 9:30. Even a pig should be up by now.

Jiang's mother gave her son a strange look; he wasn't such a stingy person before.

This is because he got into a fight with that young girl.

Jiang's mother said helplessly, "Fine, I'll go now. If they clearly say they're not interested in you, you can't get angry."

Jiang Baohai was taken aback.

Then she smiled confidently and said, "I'm not that petty."

Jiang's mother made this phone call.

After waiting for two whole days, the matchmaker finally had a chance to say she would help contact the people in Shanghe Village to ask.

Jiang Baohai received a large order and spent two days entertaining and entertaining the client.

I woke up and realized that two or three days had already passed.

What was the job of the matchmaker my mom found?
Why is there no news yet?

Is he afraid to reply?

Well, she's just a little girl after all, let's let her off this time.

Jiang Baohai took a deep breath and put the matter behind him completely.

It's getting late. I haven't been to the mine for three days; I have to go check it out today.

Jiang Baohai quickly tidied himself up, grabbed his briefcase, clipped on his pager, and strode out the door.

The cold snap in early spring seems to have passed.

With the sun shining brightly, Jiang Baohai felt the vitality brought by his young body and was in a good mood.

Passing by the village store.

A group of idle villagers squatted at the entrance of the small shop, sharing a cigarette, chatting and joking around, making quite a scene.

"Is Mr. Jiang going out?"

"Which high-ranking leader are you planning to invite to dinner this time?"

"Mr. Jiang looks really smart today!"

No matter how much the villagers, young and old, secretly curse Jiang Baohai as a nouveau riche and a stinking rich man.

Everyone had to flatter and fawn over him, hoping to get some benefits from him.

Jiang Baohai was in a good mood today, nodding to everyone with a warm smile.

He doesn't have the conventionally handsome look that's popular these days, but he's still quite good-looking.

He had a tall and straight figure, and his slicked-back hair, styled with mousse, was perfectly neat.

She had thick eyebrows, phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, and skin that seemed to never tan, even whiter than a woman's, with very red lips.

When he's not smiling, he looks somewhat sinister and vicious.

But when he smiles, he's as kind and approachable as a benevolent child.

Jiang Baohai took out a pack of cigarettes that looked like high-end products from his pocket and distributed them to everyone.

He simply closed the cigarette pack and didn't smoke it.

Having suffered from stroke and lung disease in his previous life, Jiang Baohai dared not touch harmful substances like tobacco and alcohol again.

Now that he has a second chance, he will take better care of his health and strive to live past sixty-five and become a long-lived old man.

Besides, in his previous life, Gao Qinghe couldn't stand even the slightest smell of smoke or alcohol, so he quit decades ago.

Sometimes when I have to smoke while socializing outside, I have to wait until the smell completely dissipates and take two showers before I dare to go home.

Otherwise, if you fumigate her a little, she won't allow him to enter the house for at least half a year!
I wonder if he served under Erlang Shen in his past life, his celestial dog's nose is so sharp.

Unconsciously, he thought of that woman who deserved to die a horrible death again. Jiang Baohai coughed awkwardly twice and immediately put her out of his mind.

These idle men in the village had never seen such high-end cigarettes before.

Each one of them was reluctant to smoke, but after taking a deep breath of the luxurious aroma, they tucked the cigarette behind their ears and enthusiastically tried to get closer to Jiang Baohai.

Just as things were getting lively, the shop owner picked up the phone and called out:
"Boss Jiang, they're looking for you!"

The noisy crowd quieted down and looked at Jiang Baohai with curiosity.

Jiang Baohai was puzzled: "Looking for me?"
