Drowning Reborn

In fact, Jiang Zechen had also considered whether to prevent Jiang's father from being killed in a car accident in his sophomore year of high school. After all, if Jiang's father had not passed away, no matter how capable Jiang Zehan was, it would take at least several years to complete his work in the company. Gradually replace Jiang's father's plan, and the past few years are necessary for Jiang Zechen to strengthen his own strength - at least, he can finish high school, even finish college, and truly be independent as an "adult" Life.

It's a pity that no matter how hard Jiang Zechen tried to recall, he couldn't recall the exact time and process of the car accident—even he wasn't even sure whether he knew about it in his previous life.

In the last life, when Jiang Zechen learned of Jiang's father's death, it was in his most depraved period, fighting, gambling, drinking, smoking, racing... Almost every night he was away from home, and he didn't go to school in a serious manner. After a few times, I was in a daze all day long. In retrospect, Jiang Zechen really felt that he could only be described as a "walking dead" at that time.

When Jiang Zehan received the call, was he drinking?Still asleep?In short, when Jiang Zechen heard the news of Jiang's father's death for the first time, he was not very sober, and even thought he was dreaming, and Jiang's father's accident happened in a foreign country, and neither he nor Jiang Zehan saw him for the last time .

Afterwards, all kinds of messy things came to us, company affairs, share distribution, Jiang's father's funeral, mother's endless complaints and nagging, quarrels and anger... The complicated and complicated things made people who had never experienced such things Jiang Zechen's head was as big as a bucket, and he had no time to pay attention to superfluous things—even if this "superfluous thing" was the death of his father.

No matter how he digs out his past memories, Jiang Zechen only knows that his father died one day in the second semester of his sophomore year on the way to negotiate with an important partner. The reason was an accidental car accident.

There is no time, no place, only the final result—could he tell Jiang's father and Mrs. Jiang that he had a prophetic dream and foretell Jiang's father's death?

Regardless of whether the two adults who still regarded him as a wayward child believed it or not, once he said it, no matter whether Jiang's father escaped the scythe of death or not, what awaited him was definitely not the "prophecy" in the novel. The scenery of home is infinite."

——No matter how innocent and naive he is in this life, Jiang Zechen's nature is still the same as in his previous life. It is the selfishness and indifference cultivated through the indifference and disdain of others, as well as the rebelliousness and arrogance brought out from the bottom of his bones.In his eyes, people are divided into grades, and those he is willing to help are also classified into grades, and Jiang's father, even his father in two lifetimes, is definitely not the one he is willing to shoulder. Risk going to help that one.

So what about unfilial piety?So what about cruelty?He has experienced enough hardships and pains in his previous life. Once again, he is not to bear the pressure again, but to live a better and more willful life.

Jiang Zechen has no habit of squandering goodwill, he is willing to help others, but the premise is that he will not lose anything, nor will he encounter any trouble, and it is even better to get some rewards.

After the second semester of high school started, Jiang Zechen guessed that it was almost time, so he took advantage of the opportunity when Mrs. Jiang called back to talk about driving safety like an insecure child.Jiang Zechen said that he had just read a report describing a recent traffic accident, which was accompanied by videos and pictures. The content was horrifying and had strong educational significance. comfortable.

Mrs. Jiang laughed at him unceremoniously, and then comforted Jiang Zechen. The driver who took him to and from school was an old driver. Worry about this.

Jiang Zechen twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, feeling extremely depressed—he was not afraid that he would have a car accident, he was clearly reminding Mrs. Jiang and Father Jiang indirectly, okay?

——It seems...he did die in a car accident in his previous life?Cars and the like are too unsafe!

After being comforted by Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Zechen said that she felt much better now, and then solemnly reminded her and Jiang's father to pay attention to safety. Mrs. Jiang agreed perfunctorily with a smile. On the contrary, she was pleased that her son had grown up , I know how to care about my parents.

——Well, he really didn't care much about his parents as an unfilial son.

After hanging up the phone, knowing that Mrs. Jiang didn't take her words to heart, Jiang Zechen shrugged helplessly and didn't plan to intervene.After all, the only person he could contact was Mrs. Jiang, and Jiang's father had never called him alone—in the eyes of Jiang's father, the only son who needed his care was Jiang Zehan, and Jiang Zechen was just a subsidiary of an unimportant marriage. Goods.

As for whether Jiang's father can escape the catastrophe of his previous life, it depends on how fate arranges it.

Although there is still a big stone in his heart, Jiang Zechen, the little white-eyed wolf who thinks he has "done all his benevolence", doesn't plan to pay any more attention to it. He is still filming and studying as usual, and spends most of his weekends with Jiang Zehan. Staying together, intending to take advantage of this final stage to hug the thigh again, try to behave well and be lenient.

It has to be said that after these years of training, Jiang Zechen's acting skills have really improved. Even Jiang Zehan, a genius like him, can't see his younger brother's uneasiness and anxiety at this moment.

Even if he sincerely prayed that his "reminder" would be useful, and hoped that Jiang's father would not die suddenly when everyone was caught off guard like in his previous life, leaving a lot of mess behind him, but the god of death probably didn't care about such an almost negligible change.

When Jiang Zechen was yawning and distracted in class, and the phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, a bad premonition arose spontaneously.He took out his mobile phone and found that it was Jiang Zehan on the caller ID. Even though he had been prepared, Jiang Zechen couldn't help but feel that his breathing was not smooth, and his vision was slightly dark.

——Jiang Zehan knew his daily itinerary, knew when he was free and when he couldn't answer the phone, and never made a mistake. It was the first time that Jiang Zechen called when Jiang Zechen was in class.

Jiang Zechen twitched the corner of his mouth, even if he didn't answer the phone, he guessed what was supposed to happen.

Looking up at the homeroom teacher and math teacher who was working on the sample problem on the podium, Jiang Zechen, who cursed himself for feeling panic because of such a thing, picked up the phone with trembling hands—he knew that even if he made it in class now Such things will not be blamed by the teacher.

When the teacher frowned and cast dissatisfied and angry eyes on Jiang Zechen, Jiang Zehan's voice also came from the phone, with a trace of imperceptible confusion and strong worry, "Xiaochen, are you at school now?" ?”

"Yes, brother, I'm here." Jiang Zechen's tone was steady, but his eyes were fixed on the teacher who was striding towards him.

"Then stay in the class well, my brother will pick you up right away, don't run around, you know?" Jiang Zehan spoke very fast, even a little harshly.

"Well, I see." Jiang Zechen obediently responded, but before he asked what happened, he was interrupted by the teacher's sharp tone, "Jiang Zechen! I know you have work and need to contact you at any time, but this is not It means you can make phone calls in class to disrupt class order!"

Jiang Zechen blinked his eyes, thinking about whether he needed to apologize, but heard Jiang Zehan's voice coming from the phone, "Xiaochen, call the teacher, I have something to tell her."

Jiang Zechen responded, and handed the phone to the teacher without hesitation, "I'm sorry, teacher, my brother said he has something to ask you..."

The teacher gave Jiang Zechen a suspicious look, but still took the phone and put it to his ear.

Immediately, Jiang Zechen saw that the teacher's angry expression froze, revealing a bit of disbelief and a bit of shock. Finally, when she answered "I see" and hung up the phone, the expression in her eyes froze. It's full of pity and worry.

Looking down at his watch, he found that class was over in less than 10 minutes. The teacher pursed his lips, turned his head and told the students in the class that the class was over, and then the students could study by themselves, and then put their hands on Jiang Zechen On his shoulder, he softened his voice, "You... come with me."

Although he was a bit confused, this did not prevent Jiang Zechen from showing a bewildered look, stood up and followed the teacher out of the classroom.The teacher held his hand very tightly and trembling a little. Jiang Zechen followed behind her with his head down, his expression was confused and worried, like a child who made a mistake and was caught by the teacher but didn't understand the teacher's strange attitude.

But in his mind, Jiang Zechen suddenly thought of a well-known horror movie series - "Death is Coming".

No matter how to avoid it, the person who deserves to die will still be taken away by the God of Death in various ways. Even if he escapes one calamity, he will not escape the next calamity.This is the so-called "the king of hell wants people to die on the third watch, who dares to stay past the fifth watch"?

——So, what about him?Will he also die in a car accident in his 20s like in his previous life?

Jiang Zechen was a little amused at the divergence of his thinking. He didn't deliberately change Jiang's father's life trajectory, so he was more likely to die than alive, but Jiang Zechen in this life has long been completely different from his previous life.

Sitting in the teacher's office, holding the warm water she handed over to him, Jiang Zechen, who had never been treated like this, naturally showed a flattered look, while the teacher sat beside him and told him to wait here obediently After that, he lowered his head to correct the homework pretending not to care, but his eyes lingered quietly on Jiang Zechen's body, full of care and warmth.

Jiang Zechen suddenly felt that this teacher he was not very familiar with was actually very likable.

Jiang Zehan didn't make Jiang Zechen wait long, and Jiang Zehan's hurried figure appeared at the door of the office. The moment his anxious and worried gaze touched Jiang Zechen, he finally softened.

Walking into the office quickly, without paying attention to other teachers at all, Jiang Zehan ignored the paper cup Jiang Zechen was holding was knocked over, and rubbed his younger brother into his arms forcefully.

The splashed warm water wet Jiang Zehan's shoulders when Jiang Zechen dodged. Jiang Zechen was hugged helplessly, his big black and white eyes were full of doubts, "Brother...?"

The younger brother's soft voice seemed to soothe Jiang Zehan's whole body and mind. His trembling body gradually returned to calm, but he pressed that young and warm body into his arms even harder.Closing his eyes, feeling Jiang Zechen's familiar breath, Jiang Zehan's brain, which was hit by the sudden news and messed up, finally woke up.

——The moment Jiang Zehan received a call from Jiang's father's secretary in the United States, Jiang Zehan's first reaction was not to ask about the process, not to think about how to change his plan, but to find Jiang Zechen.

Maybe it was because he was afraid that his younger brother would find it difficult to accept the news from others, or maybe it was because he was already in such a mess that he could only be comforted by seeing Jiang Zechen, but no matter what, what Jiang Zehan wanted to do the most was to hold his younger brother tightly in his arms inside.

Jiang Zehan thought that he no longer had much father-son affection for Jiang's father, but he never thought that Jiang's father would die.

There is a saying that most boys' first idols in life are their fathers.Although Jiang's father is full of love, he puts all his attention on his career and women, and rarely cares about his son, but he has indeed supported the two children of the Jiang family and protected them from growing up safely. big.

Perhaps it was the impression left by him since he was a child, Jiang Zehan always subconsciously felt that his father, who was in his prime, was powerful and could easily control everything, but the instant collapse of this idol, even if he considered himself mature, stable and extremely skilled Jiang Zehan couldn't help but lost his way.

Once attacked by fragility, everyone's subconscious reaction is to look for an existence that can be relied on at ease, and for Jiang Zehan, such an existence is his younger brother who has the closest blood relationship with him—even if this younger brother is weak and Childishness is the only one who can cheer Jiang Zehan up quickly.

——Yes, what if there is no father?For Jiang Zehan, who has long been used to his father being just a symbol or just a phone call, it is enough for him to have a younger brother.

On the back of his head was his younger brother's hand that hesitantly placed, his familiar fingers passing through the hair, stroking carefully, giving comfort as he always did.Jiang Zehan's face buried in Jiang Zechen's neck finally calmed down, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

——Yes, it is enough for him to have a younger brother. He can already hold up the sky for himself and his younger brother like Father Jiang did.

"Xiaochen, I have something bad to tell you." He loosened his tightly hugged arms and turned to hold Jiang Zechen's shoulders. Jiang Zehan looked directly at his younger brother's inexplicable eyes, and said softly but firmly, The eyes are completely calm and comforting, "Although you may find it hard to accept, don't worry, don't be afraid, brother is always by your side and will always protect you, you know?"

Jiang Zechen opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, just nodded slowly and firmly.

Although it was only for a moment, Jiang Zehan's uneasiness and confusion were still transmitted to Jiang Zechen's heart through the trembling of his body and the strength of his arms. Looking at Jiang Zehan who seemed to have become more mature in an instant, Jiang Zechen tore up his memories and remembered clearly. He recalled the scene after receiving the news of Jiang's father's death in his previous life.

At that time, when he received a phone call from Jiang Zehan informing him of the bad news with his head in pain from a drunken hangover, he never saw his brother who had taken a leave of absence from university and devoted himself to stabilizing the company's order. Fear, when Jiang Zehan went to the head office to look for him, there was no trace of him—until Mrs. Jiang returned to China with Jiang's father's ashes, and the lawyer came to read the property inheritance documents.

But this time, Jiang Zehan dropped everything and found him right away—so, it's different from the previous life, right?

——He...should be able to try to believe that Jiang Zehan won't embarrass him like he did in his previous life, right?

"Xiaochen, Dad... passed away in a car accident."
