Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Meng Chuan had considered having Ying Die sleep on a makeshift bed on the floor.

Sleeping while sitting up.

To go even further, one could hang from a rope and sleep on it like the Little Dragon Girl.

I never expected her to say she wanted to sleep standing up.

"You can sleep in my bed! I'll sleep on the floor."

Meng Chuan said with heartache.

Sleeping standing up is such a disgrace!

He's a man, after all. How could he let a girl sleep on the floor like that?

Moreover, Yingdie was his savior.

In the days to come, Meng Chuan will still need her protection.

“Sleeping lying down makes me lose my alertness, so I’m used to sleeping standing up.”

Yingdie said expressionlessly.

However, if Fifth Master or anyone else familiar with Shadow Butterfly were here, they would be shocked.

Because Yingdie was the strongest among that group of children.

At the same time, he was also the most taciturn among that group of children.

Even in front of Fifth Master, she remained sparing with her words.

And he rarely explains anything he does.

But in front of Meng Chuan, she actually took the initiative to explain why she was used to sleeping standing up.

"This...you mean you've never slept lying down?"

Meng Chuan looked at Ying Die in surprise.

Yingdie nodded.

A wave of immense heartache washed over Meng Chuan.

He really felt a sharp pain in his chest.

Judging from their ages, Yingdie and he are not much different.

How much hardship must one endure to develop the habit of sleeping standing up?

What kind of twisted person could come up with such a depraved training method, turning a perfectly healthy person into someone who sleeps standing up?

At that moment, Meng Chuan felt disgusted with Fifth Master.

At the same time, Meng Chuan also deeply understood the profound truths often mentioned online:

What you take for granted may be a happiness that others can only dream of.

What you waste casually may be someone else's lifelong dream.

"Actually, you don't need to do this. We are all safe in the dormitory."

Meng Chuan said to Ying Die with heartache.

Seeing that Yingdie wanted to say something more.

Meng Chuan spoke first:

“Yingdie, although we haven’t known each other for long, listen to me, we are all human beings, flesh and blood, born and raised by parents.”

No one is more noble than anyone else, and no one's life is necessarily more important than another's.

"Perhaps protecting me is your duty. But I hope that your protection of me is within your power, not at the cost of your life."

"If one day someone points a gun at me, and you will die if you save me, I hope you will turn around and leave."

Meng Chuan was deeply moved, and his eyes even became a little moist.

He once thought that the suffering he had endured in those ten years of his dream was tragic enough.

But compared to Yingdie's experience, he was still fortunate.

Although Meng Chuan's understanding of Yingdie is still only the tip of the iceberg.

But Meng Chuan no longer dared to imagine how she spent her childhood.

"I……"

Yingdie gave Meng Chuan a deep look.

For the first time, she felt genuine care.

Suddenly, a warm feeling, indescribable, welled up inside her cold heart.

"Listen to me, go upstairs."

Meng Chuan said softly.

However, Yingdie shook her head firmly and pointed to the study desk under Meng Chuan's bed.

"I sleep sitting up."

Yingdie compromised.

He walked straight to the table and sat down in the chair.

"Meng Chuan, open the door."

However, just as Meng Chuan was about to try to persuade him again...

Suddenly, Jiang Zhenyu's voice came from outside the door.

As soon as she sat down, Yingdie suddenly stood up alertly.

"It's my classmate, don't be nervous."

Meng Chuan hurriedly said.

If Yingdie were to attack Jiang Zhenyu, given his physique, he would immediately be seeing his great-grandmother.

"Don't let him know you're here. Go hide in the bathroom for a bit."

Meng Chuan whispered to Ying Die.

Jiang Zhenyu is too prone to overthinking.

She's already listed five "sisters-in-law" for Meng Chuan.

If he were to see Yingdie in his dorm again, he might already have a name in mind for his child.

Yingdie nodded and dashed into the restroom.

Only after confirming that Yingdie had hidden herself properly did Meng Chuan breathe a sigh of relief and open the dormitory door.

"What are you doing, kid? You've been dawdling for ages and haven't opened the door yet. You're not hiding a mistress away, are you?"

Jiang Zhenyu looked suspicious as soon as he entered the room.

I looked around again.

"You...get out of here."

Meng Chuan's expression was somewhat unnatural.

Is this kid's mouth blessed?

"Why are you blushing? Damn, were you just... indulging in something depraved?"

As Jiang Zhenyu spoke, he immediately went to rummage through the trash can behind the door.

"What are you doing?"

Meng Chuan looked at Jiang Zhenyu with suspicion.

"There's no toilet paper! Did you throw it in the toilet?"

As Jiang Zhenyu spoke, he was about to rush towards the toilet.

Normally, besides trash cans, the only other facilities in a dormitory are toilets.

"Hey hey hey, what are you doing?"

Meng Chuan immediately became anxious.

You can't go into the toilet!

"You're nervous, haha, you're nervous! You must have just been on a date with the Five Fingers Girl. Bro, now I finally know why you found me five sisters-in-law. Are you that capable?"

Jiang Zhenyu seemed to have discovered some enormous secret.

"What on earth are you talking about?"

Meng Chuan was somewhat confused.

Did this kid take the wrong medicine today?

Why are you talking like that, with one foot in the sky and the other on the ground, completely unrelated?

"Brother, don't be shy, I won't tell anyone."

Jiang Zhenyu looked envious, but then changed the subject, lowering his voice to say:

"But brother, to be fair, sometimes being too strong isn't a good thing for a man; it's an illness that needs to be treated."

"What exactly do you want to say? What do you want from me?"

Meng Chuan pulled Jiang Zhenyu back into the dormitory.

However, Meng Chuan still intentionally or unintentionally blocked the passage leading to the toilet.

Even if the King of Heaven himself came today, Meng Chuan would absolutely not let him go to the toilet.

"Oh! I just wanted to ask you, there's only one week left until National Day on October 1st. Are you staying in Shanghai or going back to your hometown?"

"Getting down to business," Jiang Zhenyu asked.

"Go back! What's the point of staying in Shanghai?"

Meng Chuan said matter-of-factly.

Only Jiang Zhenyu believed that Meng Chuan was partying every night.

In fact, Meng Chuan had been thirsting for a long time, and the bitter night was too long.

Besides, Meng Chuan has already finished all the exams for his entire freshman year.

He even wanted to take a vacation right now.

Whether he's at school or not, nobody cares.

“We’re from the same province, and my home is in the provincial capital, so let’s go back together! Can you book a plane ticket for me?”

Jiang Zhenyu said.

Why should I book your plane ticket?

Meng Chuan looked at Jiang Zhenyu strangely.

"You're rich! Your girlfriend spends a hundred million in one go, enough for just one plane ticket. You wouldn't be reluctant to spend that, would you?"

Jiang Zhenyu said matter-of-factly.

"You... I'm not going back by plane."

Meng Chuan was furious.

Now that Meng Chuan has a car, he can drive back and at least enjoy the scenery along the way.

"Okay, it's on my way anyway, I'll hitch a ride with you. It's settled then, I'm off."

Jiang Zhenyu waved his hand, not giving Meng Chuan a chance to refuse.

"That bastard, he's clinging to me!"

Looking at Jiang Zhenyu's retreating figure, Meng Chuan regretted his actions.

I regret knowing this jerk.

Meng Chuan wanted to strangle him!

However, just as Meng Chuan turned around angrily, intending to go to the restroom to call Ying Die out...

The dormitory door suddenly opened again.

Jiang Zhenyu poked his head out:

"By the way, bro, that thing is really an illness, you should get treatment as soon as possible."

"Get out of here……"
