Reborn to Strive

Shi Zhen was in a complicated mood.

Guan Baiyu's feelings for him may not be the feelings of a younger brother for his elder brother.

He wasn't sure, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

But he didn't show it. The next day, he took Guan Baiyu to rent a house in Changxi City.

Changxi City is different from Anshan Town. There are already quite a few good houses newly built here in recent years. However, these new houses are lived in by others, or are planned to be used by their children for marriage, so they will not be rented out to others. The houses used for renting out are all unoccupied.

So it was really not easy for Shi Zhen to rent a better house.

It was even difficult for Shi Zhen to find a house with two bedrooms.

For example, at this moment, the house they are looking at has only one bedroom, which is the dormitory of the former sweater factory.

The house faces south and has five floors. The house they saw was on the third floor.

There is a long corridor on the north side of the house, and there are doors at a certain distance. Behind each door is a dormitory. Open the door and enter, and the layout inside is the same.

Once inside, it is a room of up to ten square meters, which is used as a kitchen and dining room.

Then there is the corridor and the bathroom, and the innermost one is a bedroom of about ten square meters.

The whole is very small, and the advantage is probably that there is no shortage of flush toilets in the toilet.

Shi Zhen hired a special middleman to bring him here. After seeing it, he asked the middleman, "Is there a house with two bedrooms?"

The kitchen and dining room outside the house is not big at all, and a stove and cupboards were built. In the end, even the Eight Immortals table that can seat eight people can't fit in, and only a small square dining table that can seat four people can be put down... so There is no room for an extra bed for him.

"Brother, isn't this house pretty good? I've been staying in the school and only come here occasionally. Then we can sleep together." Guan Baiyu said.

Guan Baiyu really liked this house. The original owner was a young couple, and the home was decorated very warmly.

Mainly...although it was a bit too much, but he really wanted to share a room with his brother.

"That's right, you are just two brothers, this house is good enough to live in," the man said, "Many of these dormitories are lived in by young couples with children, and there are three of them!"

Shi Zhen took a look at Guan Baiyu, and said confidently: "I like to sleep alone... Do you have a house with two bedrooms?"

"I really don't have any, but I heard a few days ago that someone is moving and there is a big house for rent... How about we go and ask?" the middleman suggested.

"Okay." Shi Zhen said.

The place where the middleman took Shi Zhen surprised Shi Zhen. It turned out to be the dormitory that was previously allocated to government workers.

This place... is considered a geomantic treasure.

Twenty years later, the school districts of the best public junior high school and the best public elementary school in Changxi City have been designated here.

Therefore, no matter how broken the house is here, the price is very expensive.

When the middleman asked, he learned that there were indeed houses for rent here.

The house was on the fifth floor and belonged to a retired old couple.

The old couple walked the stairs for many years, and they couldn't walk anymore, so they wanted to change houses.

This house is very big, with a full 140 square meters, which is as big as the house the Shi family is building, but the size of the house...is not flattering.

To the south of the entrance is a very small kitchen and a very small toilet, to the north is the dining room, and then a long aisle in the middle, with two bedrooms on each side of the aisle, with doors facing each other.

That is to say, the layout is four bedrooms, a small dining room, and a mini kitchen and bathroom.

The four bedrooms are really big, and there is room for two bunk beds... The former owner's house must be full of people.

"This house is big and can be rented to several families... Of course, the landlord doesn't want to rent it to others like this. If you want to rent it, the monthly rent will be two hundred." Zhongren said.

"Just rent this." Shi Zhen was sure.

The man looked at Shi Zhen in surprise.

They were just two brothers, and one of them was still in school, so he seldom went home to live... How could they still rent such a big house?

The rent of the previous house was [-] per month, and he felt it was more suitable than this house.

Shi Zhen didn't want to get too close to Guan Baiyu, so he insisted on having a two-room house.

Although there are a little more rooms in this house, it still meets the requirements.

Moreover, the landlord of this house is willing to keep the furniture for their use, which saves a lot of trouble.

Shi Zhen decided to rent a house, so the middleman took Shi Zhen to find the landlord.

At this time, most renters do not sign a contract.

Both Shi Zhen and Guan Baiyu spoke the local dialect, and Guan Baiyu also mentioned that he was studying in No. [-] Middle School of the city... The old couple readily rented the house to them.

Shi Zhen paid three months' rent and one month's deposit, and got the key.

In fact, according to the old couple's wishes, he could live with only one month's rent and one month's deposit, but Shi Zhen felt that paying the rent every month was too troublesome, so he didn't choose to do so.

"Brother, there is no need to rent such a big house..." Guan Baiyu didn't like this house very much.

Shi Zhendao: "Isn't this house pretty good? I plan to buy it when I have money... With so many rooms, you can live there when you get married and have children."

Shi Zhen has no plan to buy this house. The school district of this house is good, but it is too old.

Best of all...he doesn't use the school district.

What he said was just a test.

Guan Baiyu turned his head away from looking at Shi Zhen: "Brother, I'm an unmarriageist just like you."

Shi Zhen said: "You are still young, don't say that."

"It seems like how old you are." Guan Baiyu was speechless.

Shi Zhen didn't continue this topic: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's clean it up."

"Okay." Guan Baiyu said.

Shi Zhen smiled: "We only live in two south-facing bedrooms. I'll sort out the things I don't need, and you can clean the kitchen and dining room."

After finishing speaking, Shi Zhen entered a south-facing bedroom, took a deep breath, and rubbed the space between his brows.

It is very possible that Guan Baiyu has a different affection for him.

When he was with Guan Baiyu in his previous life, he was actually a little worried about gain and loss, and he was not sure if Guan Baiyu really liked him.

But after Guan Baiyu passed away, he repeatedly thought about it...

No matter how Guan Baiyu was with him at the beginning, Guan Baiyu must have liked him later on.

It's just that although they lived together at that time, they seldom talked about what was in their hearts, especially about love and love.

In addition...he couldn't understand what Guan Baiyu learned, and Guan Baiyu couldn't figure out what he was doing.

There is a gap between them, and because of lack of communication, there is a gap.

He often thought, if Guan Baiyu didn't die, and they talked about it, wouldn't they be able to be together well?

It was precisely because of knowing this and thinking of this possibility that he suffered more and felt more guilty.

However, after rebirth, he did not intend to be with Guan Baiyu.

He's not in the right mood right now.

He also thought that since they were relatives, Guan Baiyu would not fall in love with him again.

But thinking about it carefully, many things Guan Baiyu did were the same as in his previous life.

Shi Zhen felt that his breathing was a bit difficult.

He stood for a while, then moved out the unused furniture from the room and moved them to a north-facing room.

He planned to use one room for sundries, and the remaining three rooms, two as bedrooms and one as a study.

No matter what Guan Baiyu thinks about him, Shi Zhen intends to... pretend he doesn't know.

Guan Baiyu is about to enter his third year of high school. At this critical moment, it's best to keep it as it is.

As for the future... Guan Baiyu will definitely go to other places when he is studying in university, and he will stay in Changxi City to develop. In this way, they will be far away.

Guan Baiyu is still young, even if he had some thoughts about the men around him when he was young, it should gradually fade away in the future.

Even if Guan Baiyu still likes men... There are so many well-qualified boys in college, Guan Baiyu may not still like him.

Shi Zhen felt uncomfortable.

But in his previous life, he had experienced many more unpleasant things, and he was still able to control his expression.

Guan Baiyu's holiday this time actually lasted for two and a half days, just like the usual big week, they completed the move in just these two days.

And the location and floor of their house should not be patronized by thieves.

There are really thieves coming... Then they can only go through the gate, and outside the gate of this house, there is a security door welded with iron.

Guan Baiyu went back to school just after moving house.

He stayed in Shi Zhen's rented house for a while longer, and when he returned to school, the evening self-study had almost started.

Sitting down at the table, Guan Baiyu was a little absent-minded.

His deskmate has changed long ago, and the new deskmate is also a boy, who has a good relationship with Guan Baiyu. Now he asked Guan Baiyu curiously: "Why are you listless? Are you uncomfortable?"

"No." Guan Baiyu said while sighing.

"Is there something on your mind?" the man asked again.

"Probably." Guan Baiyu said.

He just left Shi Zhen, a little unhappy.

What's more, Shi Zhen is very busy now, and he spends little time with him, which also makes him depressed.

"Wait, you won't be broken in love, right?" Guan Baiyu's tablemate thought of something.

He was at the front desk, had recently lost love, and looked similar to Guan Baiyu.

"Forget it... Tell me, if the person you like is much better than yourself, what should you do?" Guan Baiyu has always thought that Shi Zhen is very good.Although he has not read any books, Shi Zhen has a clear goal and is willing to put in a lot of effort towards it.

He always felt that whatever his brother wanted to do, he could do it.

Although he got good grades in school and started a company...but recently he always feels that there is a big gap between him and his brother.

In fact, his company was founded by chance!What about his brother's career?It's all done step by step.

"You like a particularly outstanding person? It won't be from the second class..." The youngest is in the second class.

"No!" Guan Baiyu interrupted his deskmate without thinking, "He is not from our school."

"Is she older than you?" Guan Baiyu's deskmate was shocked.It's not from their school, and it's better than Guan Baiyu... Isn't it young?

"Yes." Guan Baiyu said.

In fact, he also wanted to tell people about this matter, but Liang Qinxuan was too familiar with him. He basically knew everyone Liang Qinxuan knew, so that he couldn't tell Liang Qinxuan.

"You are awesome!" Guan Baiyu's tablemate gave Guan Baiyu a thumbs up. He didn't expect Guan Baiyu to like a woman who was older than him... Guan Baiyu said that there is a big gap between the two of them, is it true that the woman has already worked? Is it working fine? "Guan Baiyu, don't underestimate yourself. Although you are not as good as others now, you will not be worse than others when you go to college and graduate in the future... I think what you have to worry about is whether he will would have been married."

"He said he wouldn't get married."

"Is she willing to wait for you? Then she must really like you."

Guan Baiyu knew that his deskmate had misunderstood, but he liked to hear such words.

He wished his deskmate could misunderstand.

Guan Baiyu said: "He treats me really well and takes good care of me. He knows all about what I like to eat." He said a few small things that happened during his relationship with Shi Zhen.

Shi Zhen was really kind to him, so the relationship between the two of them, even if you say something casually, makes people feel full of affection.

"She definitely likes you!" Guan Baiyu's deskmate was very sure.

Guan Baiyu laughed when he heard this.

"Hey, you're so handsome! You've already been recognized by the whole school! No wonder the elder sister likes you." Guan Baiyu's deskmate looked at Guan Baiyu enviously.

"Don't tell others." Guan Baiyu whispered.

"I will definitely not say it!" Guan Baiyu's deskmate promised, patted his chest.

Guan Baiyu also knew that his tablemate had a tight mouth and didn't like to gossip, so he told him.

However, although his deskmate doesn't tell others about it, he often asks about his progress.

Guan Baiyu has no progress to tell him.

After they moved, Shi Zhen became even busier.

Although Shi Zhen would come back to eat and sleep when he came home from vacation, but they really didn't spend much time together.

He went to Shi Zhen's construction site to look for Shi Zhen, but Shi Zhen was busy all the time, talking to people about various professional terms, and he couldn't understand them, and couldn't get in the way.

However, even if there is no progress... there is still a lot to say about the matter between him and Shi Zhen.

As time goes by, Guan Baiyu's tablemates know more and more about the people Guan Baiyu likes.

That is a strong woman who is three years older than Guan Baiyu, very capable and caring about Guan Baiyu.

Only three years older, really not too old!Not to mention, Guan Baiyu kept saying that he was a good parent!

Guan Baiyu's deskmate was particularly envious of Guan Baiyu.

In their third year of senior high school, they basically stopped taking new classes and were constantly reviewing. During the heavy review, for Guan Baiyu's deskmate, the only adjustment might be to listen to Guan Baiyu tell his beautiful love story.

It's a pity that Guan Baiyu's big sister thinks that Guan Baiyu is still young, so she doesn't hold hands with Guan Baiyu. Guan Baiyu can only find opportunities to rub a few times.

The review time in the third year of high school passed very, very fast.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed, and it came to June of [-], and there was only one month left before their college entrance examination.

June [-]st is Sunday, a small service.

The children in primary school happily celebrated Children's Day, and the students in the first and second grades also happily went out shopping and playing together in the afternoon.

But the students in the third year of high school... most of them didn't go out, and stayed in school to study hard.

There are only a few people in Class [-] of the third year of high school, who went out during the elementary school, and Guan Baiyu is one of them.

Seeing that the evening self-study was about to start, Guan Baiyu's deskmate frequently looked out the window, wondering when Guan Baiyu would come back.

10 minutes before the evening self-study, Guan Baiyu came back.

He looked a little unhappy.

"Why are you unhappy?" Guan Baiyu's deskmate asked him.

Guan Baiyu said: "He is very busy, so he had a meal with me."

"It's been like this for a few weeks... Is she being too indifferent to you?" Guan Baiyu's deskmate felt a little unworthy of Guan Baiyu.

At school, Guan Baiyu was thinking about him, thinking about him all day long, that person was good, no matter whether Guan Baiyu was a big or small worshiper, she would not stay with Guan Baiyu for a long time.

"No, he's just busy." Guan Baiyu didn't want to hear this, so he opened his schoolbag and showed it to his deskmate, "He also made me a pot of Coca-Cola chicken wings in advance, and asked me to bring them to school to eat... wait a minute Let's have supper together."

Guan Baiyu was at the same table: "..." He was full even though he hadn't eaten.

Guan Baiyu said again: "He even bought me new clothes... Alas, I would rather he spend more time with me than new clothes..."

Guan Baiyu's deskmate: "..." Hehe, he shouldn't have sympathized with Guan Baiyu!

"By the way, he even installed an air conditioner for me. He hasn't even had it yet..."

Guan Baiyu's appearance like this is a bit too much!Guan Baiyu's deskmate looked at Guan Baiyu's tangled and happy look, felt unspeakably sour, and was really curious: "I've heard of the air conditioner, it seems to be very expensive? How much did you pay for it?"

"Qiqian, it belongs to Mitsubishi," Guan Baiyu said, "When the air conditioner is turned on, the room will be cooler... But it's not hot now, so I don't need it. He said that he bought this air conditioner for my college entrance examination. I can sleep well...he asked me to live a few days, and when it gets hot, I will go home and sleep."

"She really loves you!" Guan Baiyu's deskmate could only say so.

Guan Baiyu sighed again: "It's just...he seems to be avoiding me a little bit."

"What is this? Let's discuss it again. You can find a way to get close to her." Guan Baiyu's deskmate said.

In the previous year, they thought of many ways to allow Guan Baiyu to get close to the person he likes without any trace.

Including but not limited to pretending to be sick, pretending to fall and throw oneself in the arms, holding hands inadvertently when going shopping, etc.

Many of these ideas came from Guan Baiyu's deskmate. Every time Guan Baiyu succeeds, he feels a sense of accomplishment. He has said more than once that when Guan Baiyu gets married in the future, he will be invited to a wedding wine.

Guan Baiyu also promised many times, saying that he must invite him to a wedding wine.

At this moment, the two discussed in low voices again.They spread out a book of exercises, opened a draft, with serious expressions, and looked very seriously.

The teacher came in from the outside and nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, Shi Zhen sent Guan Baiyu away, but he was a little helpless.

This year, he has been suffering.

Guan Baiyu is probably a young man who can't help himself and always wants to get close to him.

He was afraid that if he refused, if Guan Baiyu would find out something, he should not refuse... If this continues, it really won't work!

He can only pretend nothing happened every time.
