Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

"No, I don't want to ride in your car, I'll ride my own bike."

He Yimei's tone remained arrogant, and she held her head high even when facing her father, refusing to back down.

Once she's made up her mind about what she wants to do, no one can change it.

He Jun sighed helplessly and, guided by the security guard, parked his car directly in the square in front of the train station.

After opening the trunk and putting his daughter's bicycle inside, he began exchanging pleasantries with the leaders who had come to greet him.

"Station Master Qian, it's been a long time."

Qian Jie is the deputy stationmaster of Bingcheng Railway Station, in charge of passenger transport, and has access to tickets to many major cities.

He Jun made a phone call last night, and the other party said they could handle it and deliver it directly to his home.

However, He Yimei insisted on coming herself, saying that she wanted to get some exercise, since she wouldn't be able to stay in Harbin for much longer and wanted to see her hometown one more time.

"Come here, Yimei, this is your Uncle Qian, he's an old friend of Dad's."

What old friend? We've only met a few times at drinking parties; our relationship isn't that deep.

But relationships are all about give and take; the more trouble you cause, the more likely you are to take things to the next level.

"Leaning on the plum blossom, leaning on the plum blossom."

He Jun called out several times but received no response. When he turned around, he found that his daughter was hanging out with a young man.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that he actually recognized the young man somewhat.

Isn't this the guy who always chases after his daughter at school?

His parents own a logistics company, which is considered a major taxpayer in Lidao District of Harbin. The two families can have some things to talk about when they meet.

However, it seems that the two children are communicating more now.

He Yimei: "Are you here to buy train tickets today too?"

Xu Bo: "Otherwise what? Should I come and steal a train car?"

He Yimei: "Can't you speak properly? Otherwise, I really won't talk to you anymore!"

Xu Bo: "Hehe, I was wrong, I'll speak properly next time."

He Yimei: "So, did you buy the train ticket?"

Xu Bo: Not yet, I didn't bring enough money, mainly because there are no sleeper berths left.

He Jun watched as his well-behaved and sensible daughter tugged at Xu Bo's clothes and walked towards him.

Seeing the delicate pink hand pulling on the rough black skin, He Jun's eyebrows twitched violently, and his eyes seemed to carry a hint of murderous intent.

His wife left him a long time ago, and he had to be both a father and a mother to her. He had never seen his daughter so affectionate towards him.

"Hello, Uncle Qian." As she approached, He Yimei greeted him politely, then turned to He Jun and said.

"Dad, this is my classmate Xu Bo. He also goes to university in Hangzhou and is here to buy train tickets today."

The boy in front of me looked very shy. He scratched his head when he saw me, then rolled his eyes and stretched out his hands to shake hands with me.

With his daughter beside him, he couldn't show too much embarrassment, so he extended his right hand and gently shook hers before speaking somewhat coldly.

"In that case, I'll buy you a sleeper berth while I'm at it. Sleeper berths are probably hard to come by these days."

The station chief next to him wore black-rimmed glasses. When he smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts.

Qian Jie said softly, "Since we're classmates with Yi Mei, we should take care of each other when we go to Hangzhou."

After hesitating for a moment, he continued, "It's just that sleeper berths are in high demand right now, but don't worry, Lao He, since you've asked, I'll definitely try my best to get you one."

Qian Jie started demanding favors.

He Jun glanced at the two children playing quietly, sighed softly, nodded, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your trouble, Lao Qian."

Seeing that the favor had been accepted, Qian Jie chuckled and began to lead the three of them into the station.

However, He Jun could hear the voices of the two children behind him as he walked.

He Yimei: "How can you thank me? You wouldn't have been able to buy a sleeper berth if it weren't for me."

Xu Bo: "Thank you so much, thank you so much. Could you please pay for my train ticket for me as well?"

The tone was sarcastic, and so was the person.

He Yimei: "How can you be so shameless?"

Xu Bo: "I didn't bring enough money. When I went to the ticket window, the lady there thought I was handsome and dashing, and she was going to pay for my ticket out of her own pocket, but I firmly refused."

"I said, I am a flower of the motherland, I should be self-reliant and work hard, a gentleman does not eat food offered with contempt."

"Now that I've gotten my hands on you, shouldn't you feel fortunate and honored?"

He Jun's brows twitched again, and even his breathing became rapid.

Before long, the three of them arrived at the VIP lounge of the train station.

After showing my ID, three tickets were brought in by staff in less than ten minutes.

The two adults exchanged a few more pleasantries before leaving the station.

Xu Bo was somewhat unhappy, as he was just an ordinary lower berth in a hard sleeper car, while he and his father had soft sleepers.

The soft sleeper should be a small private compartment, which led to a brief argument between him and He Yimei.

"Alright, Xiao Xu, I can only take care of Yimei for a short time now by taking her to school. In the future, you two children should help each other out in Hangzhou, understand?"

He Jun turned to Xu Bo and said.

"You two are classmates, from the same hometown, and I even know your parents, so you should study hard and strive to become a useful member of society."

He Jun emphasized the words "classmate" and "fellow villager" particularly, as if he were giving Xu Bo a special reminder.

Xu Bo just nodded shyly. If sound were tangible, He Jun would have seen his words enter through Xu Bo's left ear and exit through his right.

Beep beep beep.

He Jun's mobile phone rang.

"Hey, what? Oh my god, that case?"

"The sentence should be handed down. A 20-year-old college student was pursued by an 18-year-old classmate from his hometown, but was instead murdered by his family. The nature of the crime is extremely heinous."

"What evidence are we missing? The boy's remains haven't been fully pieced together yet, but that doesn't matter. So what if his death was gruesome?"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Bo's legs began to tremble. He Jun seemed quite satisfied with this situation and shook his head softly.

"Hey, a young man was pursuing a girl who was from his hometown, but her family found out and ruined his relationship."

His tone was full of sorrow and regret.

"Why do you have to do it yourself? Just find a few people to beat this guy up, preferably leaving him half-dead, wouldn't that work too?"

He Jun patted Xu Bo on the shoulder, a seemingly intimate gesture between the two, but in reality, it was He Jun's way of showing off.

Xu Bo felt a chill travel from his shoulder into his internal organs.

For example, the final boss in the final level can easily create a shockwave with a stomp of his foot, taking away half of the protagonist's health.

Fortunately, the big devil He Jun drove away quickly, leaving He Yimei's bicycle behind before he left.

"I have to go now, I still have things to do at the shop."

Xu Bo sensed that the Great Demon King's aura still lingered in the square in front of the station, so he quickly ran towards the bus stop.

"Hey! I'll wait for you at the store, hurry up!"

The Demon King's daughter was still tempting Xu Bo behind him.
