Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 725 Seduction
"Actually!" Perhaps out of guilt, Li Zhuangsheng interrupted Hu Mengke loudly, "You've never told her what you just said, have you? You and your sister are both caught in a 'besieged city' situation, and she actually envies you. She feels that all the pressure from her parents has been placed on her, and that they have placed too high expectations on her, which is causing her a lot of pain!"

As he spoke, Li Zhuangsheng gradually regained his composure and sighed softly, "Sigh, you silly girl, what is there that you can't tell her? The two of you just need to communicate... Your sister loves you very much, and she doesn't have it as easy as you think. Have you heard of the besieged city? People outside the city want to get out, and people inside want to get in. Life is like that too. You say you envy her, and she says she envies you."

After Li Zhuangsheng finished speaking, Hu Mengke remained silent for a long time.

Li Zhuangsheng was about to think she had fallen asleep when Hu Mengke turned around and said softly, "I know... Mom and Dad are right. She's just better than me, better than me in everything. Anyway, nobody has any expectations of me... Anyway, I just need to be a good little sister to Hu Mengdie!"

“Everyone is a unique individual. Hu Mengdie is Hu Mengdie, and you are you, not anyone’s sister,” Li Zhuangsheng said softly.

"Actually, I don't know what I want to do. I feel like my life is a mess. Sometimes I suddenly come to my senses and wonder who I am, where I am, and what I am doing. I didn't want to study in junior high school. It wasn't that I wanted to learn to dance or act. I was just anxious because I couldn't concentrate on my studies... But Hu Mengdie is getting better and better. I'm jealous of her. I feel like I can't catch up with her. So I thought, if I can become a big star, then I can be better than her."

"I feel like a headless fly, just hoping that she won't leave me too far behind... But everything I have today is thanks to her, and I can never catch up with her!"

"I'm not trying to take credit, but I did put in a lot of effort too..."

"That's all because of her! You're so nice to me only because I'm Hu Mengdie's sister! If I were Hu Mengke, you wouldn't even bother looking at me! I went to the interview secretly, wanting to prove I could succeed without her, but I didn't expect to run into you. Anyway, my life revolves around Hu Mengdie! I just need to behave myself and not cause any trouble to win!"

"I think you're really amazing too. After all, you said you wanted to practice dancing back then, and I really didn't expect you to stick with it. Actually, I asked the teacher to deliberately increase your training volume at that time..."

"What the heck? You're this kind of person! I knew that teacher was being really mean to me!"

"But you persevered! That's really amazing. Your sister and I never expected it; it was completely beyond our expectations!"

Hu Mengke pouted, a hint of smugness finally creeping into her voice: "What can I do if I don't persist? Go back to school? I won't understand it! Besides... I know you're the one who got my dad to agree, and I don't want to disappoint you."

Li Zhuangsheng laughed: "Yes, you are excellent. I am very satisfied with you now. Your acting skills are good, and you are also my mentor in my acting career!"

"What's so great about her? Who needs acting skills these days... Anyway, I know she's better than me. She's better than me in everything, even her charm. I was even thinking that if you fell in love with me while we were filming, it would prove I'm better than Hu Mengdie... But even when I tried to seduce you, you weren't moved. Humph!"

"What, something?"

Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.

Hu Mengke silently pulled the blanket up to cover her face: "Hmph."

"You seduced me? When did that happen?"

Li Zhuangsheng was getting restless. Apart from the night before his rebirth, he really couldn't remember when Hu Mengke had seduced him.

"I took a shower in your room... and slept next to you... so close to you while rehearsing... doesn't that count?"

"So this is what seduction is?"

"Hmph, doesn't that count in your eyes? Oh, as expected of the CEO, I clearly showed you my legs when I was sleeping in bed! So what do you mean by seduction?" Li Zhuangsheng blinked, thinking to himself, but you always put on clothes after taking a shower, and you just sleep obediently in the bed next to me, you've never made a surprise attack... Can that be called seduction?

Why have you become so reserved in your methods of seducing men?
"At the very least, I'd have to prepare a candlelight dinner, open a bottle of red wine, and wear a red, form-fitting, high-slit cheongsam, with sheer black stockings shimmering faintly in the candlelight..."

"Brother-in-law... so you usually like this kind of thing?"

"No, what I mean is, it has to go to at least that level to be considered seduction!" Li Zhuangsheng retorted.

Hu Mengke's face flushed, and she said with embarrassment and annoyance, "Isn't it considered seduction for such a beautiful woman like me to live alone in a room with you, a man and a woman?"

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless for a moment. Although he had felt a slight flutter in his heart for Hu Mengke on some occasions these past few days, it had nothing to do with her seduction. In fact, hearing her say that she was seducing him now made him want to laugh.

"Hahahaha... Yes, it's really hard not to be tempted when I'm in the same room with such a beautiful woman like you, hahahaha..."

Hearing Li Zhuangsheng's laughter, Hu Mengke's face burned even hotter, and she became even more embarrassed and angry. Deciding to go all the way, she abruptly got up, rushed to Li Zhuangsheng's bed, crawled into his blankets, and hugged him tightly: "So, does this still count as seduction?"

"What are you doing? Get down here..." Li Zhuangsheng's smile vanished abruptly, and he hurriedly shrank back. "If your sister finds out, she'll tear us apart!"

"No, didn't you laugh at me for not knowing how to seduce you? Does that count now?"

Hu Mengke, not one to back down, kissed Li Zhuangsheng on the cheek again, but in the dark, she kissed his nose.

"I know, I was wrong, I was just joking! Just seeing such a beautiful woman like you standing in front of me makes my heart race! I was just too embarrassed to admit it at first! Now get off!"

"Hmph! I won't!"

"Don't do anything reckless, you little kid!"

"I'm 18! I'm an adult, who's going to talk to you like a child! My breasts are bigger than Hu Mengdie's!"

"But I'm your brother-in-law!"

"What are you pretending for? You have more than one girlfriend, Hu Mengdie, don't you!"

Li Zhuangsheng was shocked and blurted out, "How...how did you know!"

Hu Mengke bit her lip, her expression a mix of laughter, anger, joy, and sorrow: "I've been to your house and looked for Sister Xiuyu."

When did this happen? Li Xiuyu didn't even tell me! Oh, I see, that guy was waiting to see Hu Mengdie make a fool of herself! How infuriating!
