Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!
Chapter 242 - Chapter 242 Chapter 208 Force Me to Rebirth Right

Chapter 242: Chapter 208: Force Me to Rebirth, Right Chapter 242: Chapter 208: Force Me to Rebirth, Right In the office of Persistent Visit.

Cheng Zhu sat in his office chair, and by almost four in the afternoon, he had finished all his work.

Two hours earlier, the green tea bitch Zhang Qiqi had contacted Cheng Zhu.

Today wasn’t a Sunday, yet she was asking him out to dinner again.

And she even suggested they go watch a movie together after dinner.

The last time the two of them watched “Go Limpidly,” rounding up, they had practically held hands.

However, Cheng Zhu’s reaction had left her somewhat disappointed.

Men, after all, are always lustful.

Could it be that he has no interest in my body at all?

That would be truly terrifying!

So, she was trying her luck again today.

This reminded Cheng Zhu of their previous agreement that once “Sheep” was completed, if she could beat the second level, they would go out for a meal together.

Thus, he had sent her the game.

“Time flies, it’s already been two hours.”

“I wonder if the green tea has had a meltdown yet?” he chuckled, murmuring to himself.

In fact, Zhang Qiqi’s mood was really indescribable.

It’s not like refusing to eat necessitates this, right?

Is this game even meant to be beaten?

The gap between the first and the second level’s difficulty is just absurd.

The first level’s difficulty: kindergarten questions.

The second level’s difficulty: go to hell, try for Tsinghua or Peking!

Zhang Qiqi began to question her life.

“Am I really not attractive to Cheng Zhu?”

Little did she know that Cheng Zhu was just momentarily fed up with girls like her.

Of course, maybe yoga pants would make a difference?

At this very moment, Zhang Qiqi was even a bit resentful towards Wei Bo.

— Look at this damn game you’ve created!

…

…

At four o’clock in the afternoon, Boss Cheng decided to “leave work” early.

Just as he was preparing to take a taxi home, he received a WeChat message from Xu Shao.

“Do you have time now? Shall we find a place to talk more about the transfer?” he asked.

Seeing Xu Shao come knocking wasn’t a surprise for Cheng Zhu.

He had mentioned before that when he found out Xu Shao was going to talk to his contacts in the venture capital circle, Cheng Zhu knew the deal was half-done.

Speaking of which, he found it quite amusing now.

“Good thing I just turned down Zhang Qiqi’s dinner invitation.”

“If Xu Shao knew that after our chat, I was going off to meet Zhang Qiqi for a movie date in a couple’s seat at the cinema, he’d probably have a heart attack, right?”

— A pure love warrior would just collapse.

Attraction between people, after all, doesn’t depend on bootlicking.

Especially not when it’s a green tea bitch.

In the end, the likely outcome is this: while they keep changing their unlocking tactics one after another, you keep re-reading their WeChat Moments.

Since Xu Shao harbored hostility and discontent towards him, Cheng Zhu naturally disliked him.

But to be fair, Cheng Zhu thought that he should be considered a good man.

Willing to give and loyal, right?

It’s just that bad girls are really harmful.

It still takes someone like me to deal with her!

After thinking for a while, Cheng Zhu picked up his phone and replied: “The usual place, the coffee shop at the school gate.”

“Okay, I’m heading there now,” replied Xu Shao.

“Hmm, I’ll head out now too.”

By the time Cheng Zhu arrived at the coffee shop, Xu Shao was already there.

Since he was already near the university.

Just not long ago, he had delivered bread from Hang City’s currently popular bakery to Zhang Qiqi.

Having delivered the bread, he naturally wanted to invite her for dinner.

But Zhang Qiqi refused, saying she was engrossed in a fascinating new game she swore to beat today!

Xu Shao still thought: Qiqi is so childish and cute.

At the coffee shop on the second floor, they sat opposite each other in a corner.

Xu Shao got straight to the point: “I won’t beat around the bush anymore, my interest in purchasing ‘Youu Come to Play’ is still very strong, let’s talk directly about the price, shall we?”

When two people who dislike each other keep having to interact, both find it exhausting.

After conversing for about five or six minutes, Xu Shao simply made his final offer.

“5.5 million, if you think that’s okay, then we’ll draft a contract, if not, I won’t consider this shop anymore,” he said.

Of that 5.5 million, 5.2 million was his own funding, an interesting number, 520.

The remaining 300,000 would come from Pei Yan.

Indeed, the student council vice-chairman had contacted his family and managed to secure three hundred thousand from them.

As mentioned before, Pei Yan’s family situation wasn’t comparable to Xu Shao’s, just ordinary middle class.

But his family highly valued… connections!

His parents valued Xu Shao as a person, not the project.

Some children may have had such experiences from a young age where parents consciously tell you to make useful friends.

Maybe even while urging you to study hard and get into a good school, they’d add: “Your social circle will change afterwards.”

In fact, one reason Pei Yan wanted to join the student council initially was because of some ideas instilled by his parents.

As Xu Shao was his senior and had graduated several years ago, Pei Yan had always kept in touch with him, which was part of the reason.

Pei Yan’s parents even felt that if the project ultimately lost money, it wouldn’t matter.

Because it was Xu Shao who actively them invited to invest.

If they ended up losing money, he would probably feel guilty.

With the power of Xu Shao’s family, there was definitely a chance to make up for it later.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu was extremely satisfied with the price of 5.5 million, even a bit beyond his expectations.

But, he said, “For me to sell it to you for 5.5 million is not impossible, but I have one additional condition.”

“Let’s hear it,” said Xu Shao.

“I hear… you own an internet cafe?”

“Yes.”

“The internet cafe is definitely membership-based, customers can recharge there.”

“That’s correct.”

“My shop is also membership-based, many customers have membership cards, but not all the game coins might be spent, you get my point?” Cheng Zhu sipped his coffee.

“Are you saying I should take responsibility for these as well, to take everything as it is?” Xu Shao frowned slightly.

Wow, the money people add to their cards already goes into your pocket, and now you want me to take on the unfinished game coins, right?

This was something Cheng Zhu had planned before Youu Come to Play even opened.

His initial plan was to make a quick buck, but he still opted for a membership card mode, precisely because he had this idea from the start.

“These are all loyal customers, you won’t lose out in the end,” he said looking at Xu Shao.

“I need to know exactly how many coins are there,” said Xu Shao.

“That’s not a problem, it can be checked in the system,” Cheng Zhu lightly drummed his fingers, relaxing on his chair.

As he spoke, he added: “It’s not a lot of money really, after all, our cost can’t be calculated based on what they spend, right? For example, for 120 game coins, a customer spends 100 yuan, but in the end, they only grab a few dolls, our actual cost isn’t much, right?”

Xu Shao looked at him with an are-you-kidding-me gaze: “But all the money charged to the cards is in your pocket.”

He felt like he was truly a whiner at the moment.

But Cheng Zhu was clear: You say 5.5 million, I agree, but you must take all the balance in the membership cards, otherwise, there’s no deal.

“I’ve already dropped from 6 million to 5.5 million, let’s both take a step back, right?”

“If you think it’s OK, we can now go to the shop’s system to check the amount, if you think it’s not okay, then I think we don’t need to discuss further.”

In the end, the two actually went to the shop to check, and then Xu Shao agreed.

They immediately got a professional to draft a contract, with a transfer fee of 5.5 million, and the transfer date was set for ten days later.

Next, they might still need to handle some related formalities.

As for the 5.5 million, Xu Shao made the payment very straightforwardly, transferring it directly to Cheng Zhu.

After finishing these, the first thing he did was to send a WeChat message to Zhang Qiqi: “Qiqi, I’ve bought Youu Come to Play!”

…

…

Having settled the deal for Youu Come to Play, Cheng Zhu went home.

The first thing he did when he got home was to withdraw 500,000 again from the backend of Persistent Visit to his Agricultural Bank card.

“Damn it, before my rebirth, this card had 6 million!”

“I was just screwing around in the Douyin comment section, bored out of my mind, acting all big, and out of nowhere, I got reborn!”

I was almost financially free!

Imagine a struggler like me, who after struggling for so many years and enduring lots of hardships, was forced to rebirth, turning a struggler into a cheater!

“At the Agricultural Bank card with a balance of 6 million is achieved again, try forcing me to rebirth again!” Cheng Zhu, holding his bank card, lightly tapped on the table.

Just then, Xu Yun knocked on Cheng Zhu’s door: “Come to the living room, your dad and I have something to ask you.”

Cheng Zhu put the bank card in his pocket and confusedly went to the living room.

Xu Yun looked at him and asked, “Little Youzi told me you plan to sell the claw machine store? Why haven’t you ever mentioned this to your dad and me?”

They weren’t trying to meddle, they just couldn’t help but ask.

“Actually, I sold it today,” Cheng Zhu replied.

“This store is doing so well, why did you suddenly decide to sell? Did something happen?” a deep worry appeared on Xu Yun’s face.

Old Cheng remained silent, but his mind was already calculating how much money they could afford to spend.

“Mom, how could anything be wrong?” Cheng Zhu smiled reassuringly, “I sold the store because this kind of trendy shop can only make a quick buck, and business would probably start to decline from next month onwards, getting worse and worse.”

“So, I definitely had to cash out when business was at its best.”

Xu Yun still wasn’t convinced: “Is that really the reason? Are you sure you’re not hiding anything from us?”

The family continued to discuss the matter in the living room for several minutes before Xu Yun and Old Cheng finally felt relieved.

Eventually, it was Old Cheng who first asked: “How much did you sell it for?”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Zhu’s spirit rose!

Here it comes! My moment of glory!

There’s just something about bragging in front of my family that feels so satisfying!

Cheng Zhu didn’t respond immediately, but instead… started to tell a story.

“Dad, Mom, I had a dream a while back.”

“In the dream, I struggled for many years and finally made quite a bit of money, nearly reaching a hundred million in assets, and just in one bank card there were 6 million!”

He began to describe vividly, leaving Xu Yun and Old Cheng flabbergasted.

Though Cheng Zhu has always been offbeat in his talks, why does it feel like he has gotten even more extreme recently?

Only to hear Cheng Zhu finally sigh: “Ah, but that dream eventually ended.”

“But…” Cheng Zhu paused for a moment, reached into his pocket, took out the Agricultural Bank card, and slapped it confidently onto the coffee table.

“But luckily, now, this card actually has 6 million!”

“How much?!” Xu Yun was astounded.

…
