Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 653 Return
"Hello classmate, my name is Qian Feishu, what's your name?"

"Classmate, classmate, I haven't actually graduated yet. I'm only a senior at the beginning of the school year. We should be about the same age, right?"

"Classmate, I'm from the Nanfang Art Institute. Which school are you from?"

Qian Feishu, holding two boxes of lobsters, followed Yi Yunshui and kept asking questions. Little did he know that his actions made Yi Yunshui, who already hated men and was autistic, even more afraid of him and even annoyed him, and he stuck to Li Zhuangsheng.

When they arrived at the studio, everyone smelled the aroma of thirteen-spice lobster.

"Boss, you've tempted us like this, and we can't concentrate on our work." One of them laughed.

"Then eat first, and then work after you finish eating." Li Zhuangsheng clapped his hands, "After you finish eating, you must work hard and don't fall behind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of people gathered around him, cheering.

"It's not time to get off work yet. You'll spoil them if you keep doing this." Bai Min walked up to Li Zhuangsheng.

"It's a small company, there aren't that many rules." Li Zhuangsheng smiled and waved his hand, "Why don't you go eat?"

"I would like to..." Bai Min moved closer to Li Zhuangsheng and pulled open her lower lip, "Look, a mouth ulcer."

"Mouth ulcer... Ouch, it's quite big." Li Zhuangsheng blinked. "I have a prescription. Go to the pharmacy and spend two yuan to buy a small white bottle of vitamin C. Pour a few capsules into the bottle cap, then crush it into powder. Apply it on the wound before going to bed at night. It will heal overnight."

"Okay, I'll try it after get off work. There happens to be a pharmacy near where I live."

Bai Min patted Li Zhuangsheng on the shoulder and grinned.

I don't understand, I really don't understand, how come Li Zhuangsheng suddenly recovered after only two or three days? Could it be that it was all my illusion before? That would be really embarrassing! After all, I made a solemn promise in front of Qian Feishu and Rong Hongguang, and told them to pay more attention to the boss's mental health!
In the end, he was fine!
"Boss, who is this?"

Bai Min looked at Yi Yunshui and suddenly thought, could this be the girl that Li Zhuangsheng liked before?

"Oh, her name is Yi Yunshui, she is a friend of Xiu Yu and me."

"Oh." Bai Min nodded. She thought, she is not as pretty as Hu Mengdie, but she has a cool and pure temperament.

However, he is too thin. He looks like he has been malnourished for a long time and he doesn't look very energetic.

"Classmate, why don't you go eat lobster? The lobster the boss brought today is so delicious!" Qian Feishu floated over and signaled to Li Zhuangsheng with his eyes:

Okay, okay, now you can introduce me formally!
Yi Yunshui pretended not to hear, but she did not act too close to Li Zhuangsheng in front of outsiders. She knew that some things were not allowed to be seen in public, and she did not want to embarrass Li Zhuangsheng.

As for Qian Feishu's attentiveness, she felt very disgusted. In her opinion, all the men who showed her attentiveness had dirty thoughts about her, and their ultimate goal was to violate her... so she really hated it.

If the other party didn't seem to have a close relationship with Li Zhuangsheng, she wouldn't have given him a good face.

"It's okay, just eat yours. I saved two boxes for you." Li Zhuangsheng didn't react to Qian Feishu's intention for a moment, but just smiled and told Qian Feishu not to be polite.

"If you're not feeling well, go to my office first." Li Zhuangsheng said softly to Yi Yunshui, "I'll be there in a moment."

Yi Yunshui nodded and followed Li Xiuyu to the office.

"Hey, Mr. Zhuang, is she the same age as you?"

Qian Feishu looked at Yi Yunshui's leaving back and couldn't help but ask.

"Well, consider me your classmate." Even though we are in the same grade and school.

"I feel like she's a bit aloof...quite like your sister, huh?" Qian Feishu laughed dryly.

Li Zhuangsheng blinked and finally reacted.

Could it be that you have fallen for Yi Yunshui? Although this is normal, after all, gentlemen love beautiful ladies...but Yi Yunshui is really not someone you can handle.

"She is not aloof, she is..." Li Zhuangsheng hesitated in choosing his words.

Is she misogynistic, depressed, and self-harming?
"She has severe mysophobia and is very resistant to any contact with boys... She feels uncomfortable all over!" Li Zhuangsheng finally found a more reliable excuse, suggesting that Qian Feishu should not waste time on Yi Yunshui.

"No wonder she's been avoiding me..." Qian Feishu suddenly realized something and asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to introduce her to me?"

"Ah?" Li Zhuangsheng scratched his head, "When did I say that?"

Qian Feishu felt terrible. Bai Min, who was standing by, finally understood what had happened and laughed while holding Li Zhuangsheng's shoulders.

"You're laughing too much! It's because Boss Zhuang Sheng said he would introduce me to..." Qian Feishu's face turned red.

At this time, the office door opened, and Yi Yunsui walked carefully to the water dispenser with a cup in his hand and filled it with water.

Just as he was about to raise his head to drink water, Qian Feishu suddenly reminded him, "Is this Mr. Zhuang's cup?"

Yi Yunshui was stunned for a moment, and Li Zhuangsheng waved his hand quickly: "It's okay, drink it."

Although he bought this cup, it is no longer his alone. Hu Mengdie can use it, and Li Xiuyu can use it too. They are too lazy to bring cups. Anyway, the cups have been assembled, so it doesn't matter if there is one more Yiyunshui.

Oh, no, isn’t it said that she has severe mysophobia?

Qian Feishu is depressed. Would a person with severe mysophobia drink water from another boy's cup?

Bai Min raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Zhuangsheng in a mysterious way.

"By the way, how's the matter with the cup going?" Li Zhuangsheng turned around and asked Bai Min.

"I have contacted the manufacturer and he said he will send us samples in two days."

"Okay, let's ask the fans in the group first, do a good job of investigation, and ask them what suggestions they have and their price acceptance." Li Zhuangsheng was quite excited. "If the cups sell well, we can consider continuing to produce cultural and creative peripherals."

Bai Min's eyes lit up: "If we can prove that this has a future, there will definitely be big companies that will come to raise funds!"

"As for financing... the company is not short of funds right now, so there is no need for financing for the time being." Li Zhuangsheng shook his head. "If everything goes well, I plan to make a game next year."

"You want to make a game?" Qian Feishu was surprised. "What kind of game? An online computer game?"

"There's no future for online games now, right? I want to make mobile games..." Li Zhuangsheng shrugged, "I just had an idea, and the style of the mobile game I want to make is quite similar to the animation we're making now. And as far as I know, the cost of making that kind of game is not high."

“Is it a purely free stand-alone game?”

"Of course not... You really think I'm a good person!" Li Zhuangsheng smiled bitterly.

"If you want to connect to the Internet, the cost is still quite high. Games are not like animations. One very expensive aspect of games is renting servers. The more confident you are and the more players you expect to take on, the more servers you need to rent in advance, and the higher the price... I don't understand the details, but it seems that these things are rented on an annual basis. It is estimated that the annual server rental cost is at least hundreds of thousands or even millions." Qian Feishu reminded.

Li Zhuangsheng smiled and waved his hand: "I know that, we'll talk about it when the time comes, there's no rush."

He wanted to create his own Hundred Scenes of Jiangnan, and originally there was a bit of moral burden on him, but now it doesn't matter. I can copy whatever I want, but at least I won't let Yue Fei lead a sheep with his shoulders bare!

Seeing this, Qian Feishu didn't say much. After all, he was just an outsider who knew a little about the gaming industry.

And this is just Li Zhuangsheng’s idea at the moment.

"By the way, the data these days is pretty good."

"The average number of views per episode is still increasing, and the completion rate is also very good... The lack of a substantial plot is a flaw in the animation, but the fact that each episode only has 1 minute of content makes up for it." Bai Min smiled, "Xiaodie should know the specific data, didn't you ask her?"

"Oh, I'm at home right now. I'll ask her when she gets here later."

Bai Min lowered her eyes. She was testing the relationship between Li Zhuangsheng and Hu Mengdie at the moment.

Hu Mengdie didn't know why she was distracted in the past few days. Combined with Li Zhuangsheng's previous behavior, she felt that the relationship between the two was very subtle.

Did they have a fight? Did they break down? Was this Yi Yunshui who suddenly appeared really just an ordinary friend?
However, looking at Li Zhuangsheng's casual expression, it seemed that the other party didn't care at all about how to face Hu Mengdie later.

Clearly acting as if nothing had happened.

So, am I overthinking again? This relationship is too complicated, I really don't understand it!
Bai Min returned to his workstation, thought about it, and sent a text message to Hu Mengdie: [Boss Zhuang Sheng has returned to the company, and his sister and a thin pretty girl are also here]

Anyway, give her a heads up. If it's just a misunderstanding, that's fine.

……

Hu Mengdie walked to the door of the studio and took a deep breath.

She saw Bai Min's message, but she didn't reply. In fact, Bai Min didn't need to remind her, Li Zhuangsheng had already sent her a message:
[I'm in the studio, will you come over this afternoon, or should I go home and wait for you? ]

Hu Mengdie’s reply was: [See you in the studio. ]

She added a period, revealing her inner panic.

In fact, she had regretted it, and she did not regret torturing Li Zhuangsheng psychologically. She just did not expect Li Xiuyu to be so decisive, preferring to perish together with him rather than compromise.

Even Hu Mengdie felt that the other party had gone too far. If she was just enjoying torturing Li Zhuangsheng, then what Li Xiuyu was doing was really forcing Li Zhuangsheng into a desperate situation.

If this continues, Li Zhuangsheng will either become mentally ill or become so depressed that he will die.

Li Xiuyu would not be unaware of this, so why did he do this? Was it to force her to compromise?
But Hu Mengdie had already shown a compromising attitude, but Li Xiuyu stopped her with just one sentence.

It was easy to break Li Zhuangsheng, but Hu Mengdie also felt it was difficult to make him recover. This might take time. A few years should be enough to heal this wound?
do not know.

But Hu Mengdie never thought that one day she would feel so sorry for him again.

How is Li Zhuangsheng now? Will he become more gloomy? But how can Li Xiuyu bear to hurt him? Hu Mengdie couldn't guess what Li Xiuyu was thinking, but she vaguely felt that Li Zhuangsheng should be different now than before.

But is this change good or bad for her?

I am already a bad woman through and through, and a bad woman who is trying to admit defeat. How should he deal with me?
Hu Mengdie had never been so anxious before. The last time she encountered such a situation was before her rebirth. Her request for sex with Li Zhuangsheng was rejected. She realized her crisis. Everything she had would be taken away.

In particular, the "thin and pretty girl" that Bai Min mentioned in the text message, is that person Lin Yuehua?
After hesitating at the door for a long time, Hu Mengdie finally walked in.

"The boss's wife is here. Boss Zhuang is in the office... He also brought a beautiful girl with him."

When he saw Hu Mengdie, Qian Feishu "complained" sourly.

Although he didn't think that Li Zhuangsheng bringing Yi Yunshui here so openly would lead to any shameful relationship between the two, but if it made Hu Mengdie jealous, not letting Li Zhuangsheng touch her for a night or two would be considered revenge.

"okay……"

Hu Mengdie's smile became more forced. She walked towards the office step by step and gently opened the door.

It’s not Lin Yuehua, but Yi Yunshui.

At that moment, Hu Mengdie seemed to hear herself breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'm here." Li Zhuangsheng stood up with a smile, "Are you tired after a day of training? You haven't eaten yet, right? Drink some water first."

Hu Mengdie stared at him in a daze. She had imagined countless possibilities, but she had never expected this situation. It was as if nothing had happened, and everything was as normal as ever.

She looked at Li Xiuyu, and the look in Li Xiuyu's eyes was as cold and murderous as always.

But the other person was squeezed in the same chair with Li Zhuangsheng playing computer games just a second ago. This mental state was completely different from that of the previous few days.

Li Zhuangsheng handed over a cup of water, and Hu Mengdie took it subconsciously. It contained warm water. She took a sip and tasted the sweetness of honey.

She looked at Li Zhuangsheng silently, and Li Zhuangsheng also looked at her silently.

"Drink some water and take a rest. We'll go out for a walk later." Li Zhuangsheng smiled.

Hu Mengdie drank half of the water in one breath and pretended to be calm: "Then let's go now."

"Wait for me in the office for a while." Li Zhuangsheng turned around and gave instructions to Li Xiuyu and Yi Yunshui, then took Hu Mengdie's hand and walked out of the office.

Bai Min tilted her body and watched the two people leave hand in hand, feeling inexplicably relieved.

It seems that the relationship between the two has not deteriorated much... That's good, everything will be fine. She said to herself in her heart. Although deep in her heart, she felt a little lost.

Li Zhuangsheng and Hu Mengdie walked in the park, on the paths, under the rows of sycamore trees, and in the golden summer sunset.

Li Zhuangsheng held Hu Mengdie's hand, and Hu Mengdie did not resist at all and let Li Zhuangsheng hold her hand.

"…What do you want to tell me?"

Finally, Hu Mengdie couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.

"Actually, there's nothing special I want to say." Li Zhuangsheng slowly stopped and turned to look at Hu Mengdie, "I'm not blaming you."
