Born again who will fall in love?

Chapter 6: Jiang Qin Will Definitely Regret It

"Siqi, why are you crying?"

"Jiang Qin has changed. He would never have treated me like this before. I asked him not to go, but he insisted on leaving, deliberately trying to upset me!"

Chu Siqi clenched her teeth, tears welled up in her eyes, and her chest heaved continuously. The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.

From childhood to adulthood, she had been everyone's darling, pampered by her parents, favored by her teachers, and everyone around her revolved around her. But just now, she sensed a hint of annoyance in Jiang Qin's eyes, which hurt her deeply.

Chu Siqi believed she was a kind-hearted girl. Even when she rejected Jiang Qin, she didn't say it definitively. She encouraged him to persevere, offering warmth and hope.

But what about him? Not a shred of gratitude, and he looked at her with disgust. Didn't he think he was going too far? He used to talk to her every day. Even if she replied casually, he was happy. Now that she took the initiative to talk to him, he was still not satisfied!

"Huiru, even though I rejected him, he said he won't pursue me anymore. Do you think he's being too much? I clearly gave him hope!"

"Uh...," Wang Huiru didn't know how to respond.

In theory, after Jiang Qin confessed and was rejected, it was reasonable for him to decide not to pursue further. That's human nature.

But Chu Siqi kept talking about hope. What did that really mean? "Have you already started to like Jiang Qin? Are you just testing his determination, thinking that if he perseveres a bit longer, you'll agree to him?"

Chu Siqi immediately interrupted her: "That's impossible. I admit I have some favorable feelings for him, but it's not that serious. At the very least, he should have to pursue me for a while longer!"

Wang Huiru fell silent for a moment. "How long is 'a while longer'?"

"I don't know, but he definitely has to show me his utmost sincerity until I can't resist anymore."

"Siqi, it's fine if you want him to continue to persist, but have you thought about what if you meet someone you like even more in the future?"

"Of course, I'll choose to be with the person I like more."

"What about Jiang Qin?"

Chu Siqi thought for a moment before speaking, "Then, it can only be said that we were not meant to be, and I can't blame myself."

After hearing this, Wang Huiru felt a chill run down her spine. "Don't you think that if that day really comes, Jiang Qin will be very pitiful? He persisted for so long, only to see you with someone else."

"What can I do about it? I can't give up the person I like just because he persevered for a long time and choose him."

Wang Huiru's mind was in turmoil. She felt that Chu Siqi's words seemed fine at first, but the more she thought about it, the more significant the problem became. Wasn't this just wasting someone's time?

"But she and Chu Siqi are best friends. From the perspective of their close relationship, she can't speak well of Jiang Qin. Instead, she must firmly stand by her best friend's side."

"Siqi, don't worry. I think Jiang Qin is definitely pretending."

"Pretending?"

"He's just feeling lost suddenly after you rejected him, and he's also embarrassed. So he pretends to be indifferent, but I guess he won't be able to resist coming to find you again in a few days."

After hearing these words, Chu Siqi indeed stopped crying. Her pride surged again, "Even if he really regrets it, I will absolutely not give him another chance!"

Wang Huiru nodded vigorously after hearing that. "Yes, you must not give him another chance!"

"When do you think he will regret it?"

"Do you really want to see him regret it?" Wang Huiru couldn't help but ask.

Chu Siqi thought for a moment and then nodded very seriously. She felt that Jiang Qin was too bad, playing with her feelings and self-esteem. Only when he regretted it and came to her again, then she could satisfy her pride by firmly rejecting him.

Wang Huiru couldn't help but sigh silently in her heart, unsure of how to respond.

She felt that it would be best if Jiang Qin didn't turn back at all, that he should retreat while he still could. Otherwise, she didn't know what kind of mess it might turn into.

But she couldn't have imagined that Jiang Qin had already seen the outcome, witnessed the joy of youth being cast aside, which was why he had no favorable feelings for Chu Siqi at all.

That's how love works, there's simply no logic to it.

You could love someone for many years, be incredibly devoted and attentive, but never hold their hand. Then, one day, someone else suddenly appears and a few sweet words are all it takes to win all their affection.

Trying to reason with love? Love would just smack you in the face.

Meanwhile, Jiang Qin returned to the residential area, parked his car, walked to the garden, and sat on a stone bench, deep in thought.

His contemplation had nothing to do with Chu Siqi because he simply didn't care about her. What he was thinking about now was how to make his first fortune.

Summer vacation, whether long or short, theoretically gave him plenty of time to slowly plan things out, so there was no need to rush.

"But starting a business is something that should be done sooner rather than later, so the issue of the first pot of gold is urgent. He must explore all possibilities.

After thinking it over, he felt that it might be easier to talk to his parents. So he went upstairs and found Mrs. Yuan Youqin, who was enjoying her weekend.

"Mom, how much savings do we have at home? Can you lend me some money? Tens of thousands would be fine, even better if it's over ten thousand."

Mrs. Yuan Youqin reached under the table, handed him two mahjong tiles, an eight of characters, and a nine of characters. "Be frugal."

Jiang Qin's mouth twitched a bit. "Mom, you can't even give me two nines from the mahjong set?"

"Get lost. We don't have any savings in our family. Even tens of thousands wouldn't be worth it to sell you."

At this moment, Jiang Zhenghong raised his head to look at Jiang Qin, somewhat hesitant, and his breathing became slightly heavier. Seeing this, Jiang Qin's eyes instantly lit up.

Indeed, Jiang was still shrewd. Judging from his father's expression, he must have some private savings and was debating whether to lend it to him.

"Dad, do you have something you want to say to me?"

"Forget it, it's nothing. Go play."

"It's okay, Dad. Don't pretend. Let's be honest; I've already figured things out."

"Um... son, can you pour me a cup of tea?"

"?????"

Three minutes later, after pouring the tea, Jiang Qin returned to his room, feeling completely despondent.

He thought he must have been delusional to have any hope in his own father.

Mr. Jiang Zhenghong was famously stingy, and if he had more than five yuan, he would lose sleep over it. How could he possibly lend him tens of thousands?

However, big business might not work out, but small business had to be done. After all, small money was still money, and even small amounts could add up. Besides, starting a business was always the hardest part, and relying on others was indeed unrealistic.

Borrow money?

All he had around him were high school students, and having five yuan was considered remarkable. He couldn't borrow much from them.

Take out a loan?

That was a possibility, but the procedures were too complicated, and in his previous life, he had been suffocated by mortgage payments. So, he had an instinctive aversion to loans.

Jiang Qin undressed and got into bed, planning to get a good night's sleep. Tomorrow, he would look for business opportunities elsewhere, at the very least, he needed to double the 700 yuan he had on hand.

Starting a business after a rebirth, it sounded easy, but it wasn't as simple as he had thought.
