Rebirth: I Want to Be a Hot Heroine

Xu Ci'en has recovered very well in the past few days. She looks radiant and when she sees Lin Tong, she calls her "Sister Tong".

Lin Tong is indeed a few months older than him, so it doesn’t matter if she calls her sister.

Lin Tong came to see him as usual after get off work, and the doctor said he could be discharged from the hospital today.

After packing up Xu Ci'en, Lin Tong brought him back to the staff dormitory building. He asked the store manager for an empty bed and spent a few hundred dollars more.

Let Xu Ci'en live here temporarily.

"Please clean up and live here for now."

"Sister Tong, why are you so nice to me?"

"I can't bear to see you waste your precious life. Besides, saving you wasn't in vain."

Lin Tong looked at the boy's starry eyes and had to say that Xu Ci'en had a baby face, quite cute. In addition, he had recovered very well in the past few days, and his face was rosy and shiny.

Before, she had been focusing on Xu Ci'en's recuperation and had not mentioned this matter, but now, she planned to bring it up.

"Tell me what you want me to do."

"I didn't tell you what to do. I just want you to stick to your dreams, do what you like, and do it well."

“I don’t want to continue writing my stuff.”

"Why?" Lin Tong asked puzzledly.

Xu Ci'en lowered his head. "I think what I wrote is rubbish. I was too arrogant before and thought I wrote very well. But I have been running for almost a year. I have met many great game developers, but no one agreed with me, and no one was willing to invest in me. The only time I met him was a liar."

"Then have you ever thought that maybe your light is too dazzling? A tall tree attracts the wind."

Lin Tong didn't tell him that after Xu Ci'en committed suicide in his previous life, his game code was obtained by a small company. Once the game was launched, it received tens of millions of downloads. The small company also became the leader of the Chinese game industry.

Xu Ci'en didn't expect Lin Tong to say this, and the extinguished fire in his heart seemed to be rekindled.

"I'll invest 20 yuan to open a studio for you. You want to sell the game to other companies. Why don't you start your own company?"

Xu Ci'en was stunned. The girl in front of him, who looked not much different from himself, spoke such ambitious words.

"Tong, Sister Tong, this is not good. What if..."

"Don't keep thinking about what might happen. Just do it first. I believe you can do it."

Lin Tong's firm trust gave Xu Ci'en some confidence, but through his understanding of Lin Tong over the past few days, he also knew Lin Tong's situation. He was afraid that his failure again would put Lin Tong in the same desperate predicament as himself before.

"Don't think too much about it. Since I have money to invest in you, I will definitely not be afraid. I will attract even bigger investors for you later. Xu Ci'en, we are in a similar situation. Do you want to make a comeback together?"

Lin Tong saw the boy's hesitation and worry, and couldn't help but comfort him and restore his confidence.

Xu Ci'en thought for a while and said, "20 is too much. I have a credit card that can lend me another or . You'll be going to college soon and you'll need money for many other things. I'll take the and you can take the remaining . If it's not enough, I'll ask you for more."

Lin Tong smiled and nodded. This was fine. Finally, the matter was settled. The rest was left to Xu Ci'en. Although he was young, he had a lot of experience.

After Lin Tonghe and Xu Ci'en parted ways, they returned to the dormitory building.

As soon as I pushed the door open, a fragrance hit my nose. It was a floral scent, not strong, but very sweet.

"Yeah, you're back!"

"What are you doing, Yuanyuan?"

"I'm making lipstick. The lipsticks on the market are expensive and unhealthy, so I make them myself. Wait a minute, I'll make one for you. Let it solidify for a while."

When He Aiyuan smiles, her eyes are curved like crescents, revealing playfulness and cuteness. She is wearing a pink suspender, half bent over the table, operating some small tools on the table.

He Aiyuan opened her little mouth and danced with her hands like a firecracker during the New Year, explaining to Lin Tong in detail how to make lipstick. She used to make rouge lipstick with her grandmother when she was a child. Life in the countryside at that time was relatively leisurely and comfortable.

Things weren't so good after her mother fell ill.

Thinking of those dark days, the light in He Aiyuan's eyes dimmed a little.

Lin Tong patted her shoulder gently and said, "You are so talented in this, why don't you think about having your own path? You can create your own beauty brand!"

He Aiyuan curled her lips and said, "That's easy to say, but where do I get the money?"

"I can invest in you, how about that?"

"Oh my god! You're rich!"

"Your focus..."

When He Aiyuan heard that Lin Tong wanted to invest in her, her eyes lit up.

"Is it true? But how do I do this? I don't know how to do it. How are you going to invest in me? Can I really start a beauty company? Then I will have a lot of money in the future. I will bring my grandma to Ningcheng, buy a big house, and then hire two nannies to cook for me. I will eat all the food I saw online, and I will buy a lot of clothes. You don't know, there is a girl in our village who married very well. Every time she comes back to the village, she brings a lot of clothes, one set in the morning and one in the afternoon. She also applies a facial mask every day..."

Lin Tong now wanted to shut up He Aiyuan's chattering mouth. This girl spoke fast and eloquently. She wouldn't stop even if she was left to talk for an entire afternoon.

The noise gave Lin Tong a headache.

"Stop, let me put it this way. You are not a professional and you don't have a certificate. No one will believe your recipes. Besides, everything you make now is just random stuff. You are not professional."

Lin Tong thought for a long time, "If I go to a technical school for two years of training, would you be willing?"

"It's as if I could go there whenever I wanted."

"As long as you want to learn, you can go if you pay the money."

"My brain is not very good, can I understand it?"

"Don't underestimate yourself. As long as you want to learn and as long as you like it, you will definitely be able to learn it."

"Wait, you're not going to pay for me to go to technical school!"

Lin Tong nodded and stared at He Aiyuan.

He Aiyuan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of her, "Are you still Lin Tong?"

Lin Tong slapped her hand down and said in a serious tone, "In a word, are you willing to go?"

"Yes, I am definitely willing!"

"Okay, I'm going to South City in September, you can come with me. There's a good technical school in South City, and the tuition is not bad. We can go there and take care of each other."

"Well, what about the money? I can't take it for nothing."

He Aiyuan had basically no savings of her own, and she sent all the money she earned from working back home to her grandmother. On the surface, it was for her grandmother, but in reality, it was taken away by her father to spend on wine and women.

Ever since He Aiyuan's mother passed away, her father has been living in a daze and drunkenness all day long.

"I'll consider it as a loan from you. Pay me back when you have money."

"But where does your money come from?"

“I sold the house.”

"Ah?" Lin Tong was calm and indifferent. She felt that selling a house was just like eating, a trivial matter not worth mentioning.

He Aiyuan's mind hadn't fully come to her senses yet and she felt dizzy. Why did she suddenly have to go to school?

When Lin Tong was lying in bed at night, he began to think about it. He Aiyuan wanted to do beauty care, and Xu Ci'en was a game developer.

What about her?

What does she want to do?

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Tong is not good at anything except studying. Studying is the only thing she is good at, especially mathematics.

She loves math so much. A complex math problem can make her immerse herself in the world of problem solving without being disturbed by the outside world.

Her love for those densely packed numbers can be simply attributed to her love for money.

Thousands of thoughts converged in Lin Tong's mind into an important decision.

Now that they had chosen, they should just do it, just as she told them.
