Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Li Zhuangsheng paused for a moment, then slid down again.

Before this signature, I changed my signature quite frequently, at least twice a year. But this particular signature remained unchanged for over four years.

Li Zhuangsheng returned to the signature and stared at it blankly. He suddenly felt a chill, as if he had been hit by a bullet.

It's as if he has the ability to foresee the future; this signature seems to be written for him now.

"Okay, there's nothing to apologize for. There are no evil dragons or princesses in this world. Adults have it tough..."

Li Zhuangsheng muttered to himself as he logged out of QQ. He felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't type anything more after a few keystrokes.

He wanted to watch some anime, but he didn't want to watch anime.

He fiddled with the Icarus figurine, his gaze falling on the photo frame on the computer desk.

That was an artistic portrait of Hu Mengdie. It's clear that she really liked it; the background was a bright moon.

The moon shines so brightly, when can I reach it... Ugh, ugh.

Actually, not only my future self, but even my present self loves this photo. It's so beautiful; if the person in the photo wasn't Hu Mengdie, I'd want to set it as my phone's wallpaper.

In fact, Li Zhuangsheng also felt that it was inappropriate to keep the photo here. When Hu Mengdie came over just now, her eyes had clearly swept over it... He hoped that she wouldn't think it was sexual harassment.

However, he might feel that everything before belonged to his pre-amnesia self, and that he was now merely reaping the benefits without changing anything, including the photos displayed here.

But now that the divorce has been brought up and things have been discussed openly... it's really not appropriate to put this photo here.

It's as if he can't let go of his old feelings for her; he's like a persistent, clingy leech.

After much deliberation and hesitation, Li Zhuangsheng picked up the photo and put it in the drawer of his computer desk.

That's fine. Anyway, I didn't throw it away or tear it up. If my memory returns in the future and I still want to put it on the table, I can just take it out.

I still respect people; there's no need to tear up someone's photos. Li Zhuangsheng thought to himself.

Having done all that and with nothing else to do, Li Zhuangsheng wanted to find Hu Mengke to tell him that he and Hu Mengdie were about to get a divorce.

Regardless, Hu Mengke is one of the parties involved. I don't know what she thinks, but Li Zhuangsheng should tell her.

She'd probably be happy, since what girl wants to be a "mistress"? Even if he can't give her the status of a wife, he doesn't want to make other girls sneak around with him.

If they file for divorce now, they can be together openly in a while.

With that thought in mind, Li Zhuangsheng entered Hu Mengke's room.

"Brother-in-law?" Hu Mengke happily came up and hugged him, smiling sweetly, seemingly teasing him, "What do you need me for?"

"Well, there's something I want to tell you."

Li Zhuangsheng could see the other person's longing in their eyes, but he wasn't really in the mood for it right now.

"what's up?"

"It's what I told your sister, we're planning to get a divorce in a few days... Actually, it's not a divorce, just a divorce application. There's a 30-day cooling-off period for divorce these days... It seems pretty troublesome."

Hu Mengke's expression froze: "You want to divorce her?"

“Yes, she didn’t want to, and neither did I. You should know that I have no feelings for her now, and she probably has a boyfriend she likes, so it’s better to divorce her and let her be free…” Li Zhuangsheng said.

Hu Mengke's pupils trembled, and for a moment she was somewhat at a loss. Her legs went weak, and she almost fell backward onto the bed.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Li Zhuangsheng quickly stepped forward and hugged Hu Mengke.

"No, no, no... This is too sudden. Why did you decide to get a divorce? Is it because of me?"

Hu Mengke nestled in Li Zhuangsheng's arms and murmured. "Yes, that's part of the reason..." Li Zhuangsheng's face flushed, then he added, "But the main reason is that your sister and I don't have any feelings for each other, and she doesn't like me. There's no need to tie her down with marriage. But if your parents call and need anything, I'll still help them... It's just that we're like this, how should I tell your parents..."

Hu Mengke pursed her lips, her expression unreadable: "You, brother-in-law, are you really going to divorce my sister?"

“I’ve already talked to her, and she agreed. She said she’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau when she has time. Don’t worry, your sister is a really nice person and very reasonable.”

"But……"

"But what?"

"Um, it's nothing..."

Hu Mengke opened her mouth, but hesitated, perhaps feeling that saying anything would be useless, and her face was not as happy as Li Zhuangsheng had imagined.

"Okay, if you have any thoughts, just tell me. We're... boyfriend and girlfriend now, right?"

"What boyfriend and girlfriend? Aren't you ashamed?" Hu Mengke came to her senses, smiled again, and kissed Li Zhuangsheng on the corner of his mouth. "I'm not your girlfriend, I'm your little lover who will always belong to you."

Li Zhuangsheng blushed slightly, thinking that there was no difference.

“Brother-in-law…” Hu Mengke called out again.

"Um... you don't have to call me brother-in-law anymore, right?" Li Zhuangsheng scratched his head awkwardly.

“But I’m already used to calling you that. Don’t you like me calling you brother-in-law? Then what should I call you?” Hu Mengke leaned close to Li Zhuangsheng’s ear and breathed softly, “Then I’ll call you, brother…”

Li Zhuangsheng was startled, and the tips of his ears turned bright red.

"Hehe, just kidding, I still prefer to call you brother-in-law," Hu Mengke said.

"why?"

"Because calling you brother-in-law feels like stealing something from someone else... and it sounds like something sneaky, don't you find that exciting?"

So this is your erotic fantasy? Li Zhuangsheng wanted to complain, but he didn't say anything more.

The way you address him is up to you, but you still need to keep it a secret for the time being. Calling him "brother-in-law" makes it less likely that he'll let it slip.

"Brother-in-law, you go back first, I'll come to see you tonight..." Hu Mengke said softly, "I'll go ask my sister first."

"okay……"

Just as Li Zhuangsheng was about to agree, he suddenly thought, "No, what do you mean? Do you think I come to you every time just to do that kind of thing?"

What kind of image do I have in your heart?

Li Zhuangsheng bent slightly and retreated quickly.

Hu Mengke smiled and watched them leave, then texted Hu Mengdie, asking her to come to her room.

"Meng Ke, is there something you need from me?"

A moment later, Hu Mengdie knocked on the door and pulled open the bedroom doorknob.

Hu Mengke calmly beckoned Hu Mengdie to come and sit down, getting straight to the point:

"Sister, are you going to divorce your husband?"

Hu Mengdie was taken aback: "He told you?"

"Yes, my brother-in-law just told me. He said he didn't know what you thought."
