Rebirth: I Want to Be a Hot Heroine

The night fell and the sky was dotted with stars. A tall man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the Qin Group. He looked through the window and saw the brightly lit city and fell into deep thought.

After Qin Guanjiu returned, he set about settling the issue of him and Jiang Heshan being nominally boyfriend and girlfriend.

However, unexpectedly, this matter was strongly opposed by Qin's father and mother.

"Don't even think about terminating the contract with the Jiang family! Don't think you can act on your own now that you are strong enough. This matter was decided by the two families! You are not allowed to object!"

"As the heir of the Qin family, I have done everything I should do. I have been trained according to the needs of the family since I was young. Just as my father said, I am now strong enough. Even if I am not the heir of the Qin family, I have my own world!"

"You! You! Rebellious son! You are going to piss me off to death! Anyway, you will not be allowed to regret this matter!"

"I am doing what I want to do and telling you that I am only here to inform you, not to ask for your opinion."

"Rebellious son! Get out! Get out!"

……

The man's pupils were as dark as the night. He lowered his eyes and looked somewhere.

"Hey, Jiang Heshan, go back to South City."

It was rare for a man to talk to her so seriously, so Jiang Heshan got out of bed immediately and called her assistant to book the earliest flight.

"Why is he looking for you?"

"It's probably something important."

"You're not going to say you're getting married?"

"How could that be?" If she and Qin Guanjiu got married, they would be disgusted with each other.

"What if we really get married?"

After hearing this, Jiang Heshan laughed happily. She looked at the person reading on the bed tenderly, her eyes full of doting.

"Don't worry, if we really get married, I will run away and travel the world with you."

……

North City is very close to South City, and it only takes an hour by plane.

Jiang Heshan rushed into Qin Guanjiu's office, exhausted.

"What's wrong? Are you so anxious?"

"Sit down and talk."

Qin Guanjiu poured her a cup of tea.

He also sat down, folded his hands and rested them on his chin, "I want to cancel the engagement."

"real or fake?"

"What do you say?"

Jiang Heshan was overjoyed. She had been looking forward to this day. Her own strength was not enough to resist the Jiang family, but with Qin Guanjiu, it would be hard to say.

Jiang Heshan took a sip of tea. She was very curious as to why Qin Guanjiu suddenly decided to cancel the engagement. Didn’t he always put his family first before?

Her clear eyes were full of smiles. She shook the cup, crossed her legs, squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the man in front of her, and smiled: "It's not what I think, is it?"

"So what?"

"I respect you as a man."

"Always."

"It has always been like this. I don't need to make an engagement with you."

The man didn't answer her, Jiang Heshan continued: "I didn't expect that our President Qin would also have a day of spring love."

"You are allowed to have it, but I don't?"

"Hehehe, President Qin, this is hard mode."

"You don't need to worry so much about me. I'll talk about canceling the engagement tomorrow."

"So fast?"

"I've had a falling out with my father at home, so this can be considered as a precautionary measure."

Qin Heshan gave him a thumbs up. Such initiative is worthy of our President Qin.

"What about the plan?"

Qin Guanjiu hummed, "The sooner the better."

"What? Are you afraid that your wife will run away?" Jiang Heshan looked at him with a smile.

Qin Guanjiu remained silent. He was not afraid...

Well, kind of…

Qin Shi got drunk at the party that night and slept in a hotel with his brothers. When he woke up the next day, it was already afternoon.

He turned on his phone and saw Ye Su bombarding him with messages.

Qin Shi was stunned at the time, and he sobered up immediately. He quickly changed into clean clothes and went to school to find Lin Tong, but Lin Tong was not there.

Found Ye Su, Ye Su was with Yu Zilin.

"What's going on with Lin Tong?" Qin Shi asked.

"I don't know either. I didn't go back to the dormitory last night, and I didn't see the news until I woke up this morning."

"What about her?"

"I don't know. I didn't find her when I returned to the dormitory."

There was worry in Ye Su's eyes. Lin Tong's cell phone was not with her, so he couldn't contact her.

"I heard that he was called to the principal's office, and then when reporters came, I didn't know where he went."

"Forget it, I believe her, let's wait for her to come back at school."

Ye Su nodded. Yu Zilin on the side said nothing, but it was hard not to notice him.

Qin Shi looked at Yu Zilin and frowned: "Why are you with him?"

"He accompanied me to look for Lin Tong last night, but it was past the dormitory closing time, so I went home and stayed overnight."

"Then why were you with him this morning?"

"Qin Shi, what you said is quite interesting. We are all classmates, so why can't we be together?"

Yu Zilin had not originally intended to speak, but the more Qin Shi spoke, the more he sounded like a person with bad intentions, so he couldn't help but defend himself.

Qin Shi sneered, and Ye Su said, "Don't pay attention to him, he is just like that."

Ye Su spoke up for Qin Shi, which made Yu Zilin feel a little uncomfortable. He put on an elegant smile on the surface, but he was actually very worried in his heart.

"Qin Shi, you know about the dress, right?"

Qin Shi nodded. He had read the message Ye Su sent him, so he naturally knew that the dress was cut by Yang Qingxu.

"It's okay, that was given to her, she can do whatever she wants with it."

"Lin Tong should have taught Yang Qingxu a lesson last night. She's probably scratching her head in the dormitory right now. I don't even want to go back to the dormitory."

"Then let's find a place to sit down and discuss this matter."

Qin Shi spoke. He knew that Tao Shiyu had bullied Lin Tong before and failed to protect him. Now he would do his best to protect Lin Tong.

He didn't take the Tao family seriously. After all, he was the second young master of the Qin family and had a well-known reputation.

However, Qin Shi was worried about one problem. Although he was the second son of the Qin family, he did not have any real power. Everything he did was under the protection of Qin Guanjiu, not to mention his parents.

It seemed as if he had always been relying on the Qin family's prestige to do things recklessly, without any ideas of his own and without anything that belonged to him.

At this moment, Qin Shi felt an unprecedented sense of inferiority...

He raised his lips and wanted to say something.

I didn't say it after all...

Staring at the latte art in the coffee cup in front of him, he fell into deep thought.

Xu Ci'en poured Lin Tong a cup of coffee. She stood in the office on the second floor and looked down. Today's weather was particularly gloomy and gray. There were few pedestrians on the road. A few people passed by, and it took a long time before a few more people came...

"What are you looking at?"

Lin Tong smiled and said, "The second floor is too low."

They haven't stood high enough, and they haven't seen enough...

Xu Ci'en walked to the window with an ambiguous tone, "It's only temporary."

Lin Tong turned his head to look at him. The boy's handsome profile was cold as ice, and ambition was rampant in his eyes.

He noticed Lin Tong's gaze and turned to look at her, looking harmless again.

Their ambitions are intertwined and scattered in that smile...

On the way back to school, Lin Tong called Ye Su and asked her where she was.

The cell phone was given to me by Xu Ci'en.

He asked Lin Tong to carry it with him at all times.

"Lin Tong! Where have you been?"

"Come out to do something, where are you?"

"It's across the street from the school. How do you know Qin Shi and I are together?"

"I guessed. If I'm right, Yu Zilin should be here too, right?"

"Lin Tong! You won't see us!"

Lin Tong smiled and said, "No, I'll send you my location and come find you."

When Lin Tong arrived at the cafe, the three of them looked at her in unison.

"Why are you looking at me like this?"

"What's going on between you and Tao Shiyu?"

"Isn't it very clear? She tried to kill me but failed, and I revealed her true identity."

As Lin Tong spoke, her eyes wandered to Yu Zilin. Her intuition told her that Yu Zilin was not a talkative person and would stand on her side.

As expected, as soon as Lin Tong finished speaking, Yu Zilin asked: "What should we do next?"

"Yes, there is a lot of public opinion online right now."

Qin Shi also nodded in agreement. People on the Internet are now condemning Tao Shiyu.

But the strange thing is that Lin Tong's name and photos never appeared from beginning to end. Even the photos uploaded from last night's party disappeared completely.

Ye Su flipped through his phone and concluded, "First, there was the matter of Tao Shiyu letting someone into the locker room, and second, her admission quota. Netizens dug up all her past grades, and NCU is now being grilled on the spot."

No one's attention was focused on the injured man, everyone was condemning Tao Shiyu.

Lin Tong gave a barely perceptible smile.

The Tao family has always been strong, and if there is a sudden crack, everyone will come after them and fight them.

This is the rule of society. Once a person in a high position has a problem, many ordinary people will want to bring him down.

Yu Zilin's usual smile turned serious. He stared at Lin Tong solemnly, wondering what she was thinking. "Lin Tong's name is not mentioned on the Internet. It's very simple for the Tao family to solve this matter. They just need to find a scapegoat. But the issue of admission quota..."

He paused, then added: "It's hard to say."

"Yes, China's college entrance examination system has always prided itself on being fair. If something like this happens, it will definitely be thoroughly investigated. By then, many officials will lose their jobs. This is considered a good thing..."

Ye Su was holding the coffee cup in both hands, also analyzing the situation. Before she could finish her words, Qin Shi interrupted her.

"Not necessarily. There definitely wouldn't be an extra quota for Tao Shiyu inexplicably. If there was an extra quota for her, it would have been through normal channels. I am a special recruit of Nanjing University. Because of the continuous support of the Qin family and the fact that my brother donated a laboratory building, it is clear that I was specially recruited."

"But as far as I know, the number of special admissions students at Nanjing University will not exceed five, and the Tao family does not have the ability to recruit special students yet."

"Qin Shi is right, so Tao Shiyu is an imposter, and her identity will not appear in the school. It must be another person. As for who this person is..."

"I understand!"

Ye Su put down the cup, his eyes sparkling. "As long as Tao Shiyu's name doesn't appear, then this quota is normal. The school will also come out to clarify that Tao Shiyu is not a member of the school because she used another name. In this case, won't both issues be resolved by them?"

Lin Tong looked at Ye Su with appreciation, "You are right."

"So what should we do? You went to so much trouble to send her into this public opinion storm, and now you're letting her get away with it?"

Yu Zilin asked.

He couldn't understand the thoughtful girl in front of him. She just sat there quietly, as if everything was under her control.

Lin Tong chuckled. She certainly wouldn't let her resolve the situation so easily.

"What time is it?" Lin Tong asked.

"Six thousand eight in the afternoon." Ye Su replied.

"Check out the trending searches." Lin Tong said again.

Ye Su clicked on the hot search interface, and a sensational title suddenly appeared: Recording! Nanjing University President Ye Yufeng coerced and bribed!

Ye Su clicked on it and found that the processed video had already been played millions of times.

It was a conversation between Lin Tong and the principal Ye Yufeng.

Lin Tong's name was muted, but Tao Shiyu's name was clear.

"Ah, I also know your family situation. It's not easy for you to come here to study alone. Tao Shiyu was indeed wrong in this matter, but fortunately you were not injured. In this case, can't we just discuss this matter happily?"

"So, after the freshman year, there will be an opportunity to study abroad. What do you think of this, classmate?"

"The principal wants to bribe me?"

"How can you call it bribery? This is compensation for the slander you suffered!"

"I can't make the decision on this matter."

"**, you are an adult now. I will teach you about the law of the jungle on behalf of society! You have to accept this even if you don't want to!"

"The motto of Nancheng University is: Seek truth from facts and strive for self-improvement. As the president of Nancheng University, are the things you have done worthy of this proposed motto? Are they worthy of this century-old culture? Are they worthy of every student who pursues the truth?"

"What do you mean by seeking truth from facts? What do you mean by striving for self-improvement? As the principal, are you worthy of this?"

"F**k! Don't be so arrogant!"

"You have someone in your sight, and that person is the power of his Tao family! It's the power of his Tao family! I don't believe that a prestigious university like Nanyang University would go bankrupt under the pressure of a powerful force, just to save your own official hat."

"F**k! Are you not going to study this anymore?"

"I will continue to study, but I must get a fair solution to this matter."

……

The video ends abruptly.

After Ye Su listened in a daze, his eyes gradually filled with admiration for Lin Tong, and a hint of pleasure flashed across his eyes. The two boys felt the same way, and they were full of admiration in their hearts.

The video has gone viral on the Internet and cannot be suppressed. The comments below not only condemn the Tao family, but also strongly criticize Ye Yufeng's actions and demand a thorough investigation of the matter.

It has been confirmed that Tao Shiyu did it.

"But what if they come out and say the recording is fake?" Qin Shi asked.

"Take a closer look at who posted this video."

"People's Daily!"

There was a gleam in Lin Tong's eyes. When she was about to post the video, she had anticipated that they would make a fuss about the authenticity of the video. Now that the official has spoken out, who would still question it?

Since it is called People's Daily Online, it stands on the side of the people. How can the powerful win if they go against the people?

"Lin Tong! Holy shit, you're so awesome!"

"how did you do that?"

Ye Su cursed in front of everyone. Lin Tong shook the coffee in the cup and put it down.

She doesn't like bitter things.

"Wait!"

Ye Su suddenly exclaimed.

"Another trending search: NTU students protested against injustice by holding signs in front of the university gate!"

Ye Su widened his eyes and looked at the phone in disbelief.

"No, you expected this, didn't you?"

Ye Su spoke incoherently. She had never seen such a scene before. Even the two boys around her had never seen it before.

All three of them stared at her.

Lin Tong laughed: "What are you thinking about? Of course not me."

Of course it is me.

Lin Tong thought to himself.
