Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 737 IF·0·9
"Wow, this car looks really good."

Li Zhuangsheng followed Li Xiuyu downstairs, looked at the "Han" car logo, and touched it.

"What kind of car is this? Why is the logo in Chinese characters?"

"A domestically produced car." Li Xiuyu gestured for Li Zhuangsheng to get in the car.

"Domestic cars, they must be very cheap, right?"

"I bought it for over 200,000 yuan, less than 300,000 yuan."

"So expensive, amazing..." Li Zhuangsheng sat in the passenger seat, looking very satisfied. "China has really become powerful, we should buy domestic cars! I remember last year those bastards were still trying to steal our DYD, those bastards want to eat atomic bombs again! Hey, are we done yet?"

"Fasten your seatbelts... we haven't hit them yet." Li Xiuyu glanced at him sideways. "If we really hit them, how will you watch anime? Who will film the movies you secretly hid during the An Lushan Rebellion?"

"What are you talking about! I understand right and wrong, what does anime matter! Hey, has Taiwan taken it over yet?"

"Not yet."

"Oh dear!" Li Zhuangsheng sighed, looking up at the sky, "But alas, I cannot see the unification of the nine provinces!"

"It's alright, we already have three aircraft carriers and more than a dozen 10,000-ton destroyers, it should be soon."

"Three aircraft carriers? And 10,000-ton destroyers? More than a dozen?" Li Zhuangsheng exclaimed in surprise. "Really? How many do the Americans have now?"

“It should be true,” Li Xiuyu said as he reversed the car. “I heard it from you, but I don’t know the specifics.”

"So what about China's GDP? Has it surpassed the US yet...? Oh, only ten years have passed. It only surpassed Japan two years ago. There's still a huge gap. It shouldn't be that fast..." Li Zhuangsheng said, then couldn't help but sigh, "China has changed so much! How's our domestic animation industry doing?"

"It's quite popular. Games like Douluo Continent and Battle Through the Heavens have been adapted into 3D animations."

"Battle Through the Heavens, five million words long, turned into an anime? You mean 3D, like Qin's Moon?"

"Qin's Moon had a terrible ending, but Battle Through the Heavens has probably had several hundred episodes released, and the production quality is pretty good."

"Great, great, great, great!"

Li Zhuangsheng nodded repeatedly. He loved watching Battle Through the Heavens in middle school, and he never expected it to be adapted into an anime. Good, good, it seems that Chinese animation is on the rise!
Li Xiuyu smiled inexplicably: "You seem quite leisurely. You have a lot of mess to deal with right now, yet you're concerned about national affairs."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhuangsheng's lips drooped again.

He scratched his dog's head into a mess, and then looked worried again.

"Hello, Uncle Yan. My brother suddenly lost his memory. He can't remember anything from the past few years. I'm taking him to the hospital for a checkup. I don't know what happened. He might have been attacked. He said he woke up in the pavilion near the Experimental Primary School in Shanshui Park, and then he didn't remember anything. Yes, yes, we've reported it to the police. Could you please check the surveillance footage for us? Okay, thank you so much. I'll take him to the hospital now!"

"Who are you talking to on the phone?" Li Zhuangsheng asked, blinking. "Uncle Yan?"

"Okay, I'll ask him to check the surveillance footage to see what happened to you yesterday."

"Xiuyu, you're so reliable!" Li Zhuangsheng was deeply moved. "When it comes to prison, we still have to rely on our little sister!"

"Don't give me that. Why didn't you tell me about your amnesia last night?" Li Xiuyu gritted her teeth angrily. "If we had known last night, this wouldn't have happened!" Li Zhuangsheng knew he was in the wrong and weakly explained, "It was too late... I didn't want you to lose sleep and worry about me..."

Li Xiuyu roared, "Bullshit! I bet you just want to go home and see your wife! How about it, is your wife pretty? Let me tell you, if this is a setup by them, you're finished for life, you know?"

"How did I end up like this... I didn't do anything..."

"You cheated on your spouse, so I'll make sure you leave with nothing. Is that enough?"

Li Zhuangsheng sighed and said self-deprecatingly, "That's what I deserve... I'll leave with nothing."

Li Xiuyu couldn't help but reach out and give Li Zhuangsheng, a high school student, a hard slap on the head: "Leave with nothing? You have such a big mouth! Do you know how much that house is worth? It was bought for you by your parents through a lifetime of hard work. Are you going to just give it away like that? Even if you get a divorce, the Hu family won't get a single penny!"

Li Zhuangsheng dared not speak. He wanted to refute, but seemed to have no rebuttal, so he could only pout and mutter:
"I don't think so. I think she's a really nice person..."

Li Xiuyu gave him a cold sidelong glance, thinking to himself, "Are you an idiot? Why are you still speaking up for him at a time like this?"

However, although the coincidences surrounding Li Zhuangsheng's events seemed too coincidental, making it hard not to suspect that this was a conspiracy by the Hu family, Li Xiuyu could also vaguely sense Hu Mengke's affection for Li Zhuangsheng based on her usual observations.

It's very difficult to fake a look in your eyes.

Although she disliked the Hu sisters, there were many suspicious points in this matter, and it was too early to draw conclusions. Her first priority was to figure out how Li Zhuangsheng had lost his memory.

"Xiuyu, that child is..." After a moment of silence, Li Zhuangsheng asked again, weakly, about the baby in Hu Mengke's room.

"Anyway, it's not yours!" Li Xiuyu said impatiently, then suddenly curled his lips into a sneer, "But that's not necessarily true. Maybe it really is the child you had with her? After all, you take such good care of them, mother and child. It would be strange if there wasn't something going on between you!"

Li Zhuangsheng was startled and immediately became flustered: "Huh?"

Li Xiuyu's smile vanished: "Alright, enough joking. Your sister-in-law's child isn't yours, it's her ex-husband's... They weren't legally married, so 'boyfriend' would be more accurate. Anyway, they broke up, and you took pity on this orphan and widow, so you took them in and raised them!"

"Oh, oh, oh!" Li Zhuangsheng breathed a slight sigh of relief, then his features scrunched up again as he stammered, "Then how come she's with me..."

"I don't know about that... but you were her savior when she was desperate, rescuing her from dire straits. It's normal for her to fall in love with you, right?" Li Xiuyu's words were clearly full of sarcasm and teasing. "What, don't you love your sister-in-law?"

"Of course I..." Li Zhuangsheng covered his head, trying to escape reality.

Damn it, how did I end up with my sister-in-law!
Damn it, Li Zhuangsheng, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. It seems you rejected your stunning sister-in-law before. I was wrong about you! But could you have told me earlier that she was your sister-in-law?!
Although it's common to see two sisters in anime, this is real life!

This is terrible!

"Stop pretending, you seem to be really enjoying it," Li Xiuyu raised an eyebrow.

"I didn't think about it at all!" Li Zhuangsheng retorted stubbornly. "I'm so regretful! What should I do? How am I going to explain this to my wife? Should I tell her? Will she accept it if I say it was just a misunderstanding?"

"Whether your wife will still be yours in the future is uncertain!"

"Oh, right..."
