Reincarnation: I Have Always Been Rich

Panda Novel

"Little Miss, I will tell you my feelings for you today. I don't want to get any response from you. I never thought that you would respond to my feelings. I don't dare have extravagant hopes." Zhou Yunjie's words made Chen Meng'er's heart ache when she heard them. "If I didn't hear from Su Jin today, you might have found out about my feelings for you from somewhere else. Recently, you have been avoiding me. I wouldn't have come here to tell you this. I would have kept my feelings for you to the bottom of my heart and silently liked you. I would have quietly stayed by your side and protected you. And the reason why I confessed to you today is to make things clear to you. Little Miss, you don't have to hide from me. Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. I will put myself in a proper position. So, please don't hide from me. Every time I think of you hiding from me, I feel so uncomfortable that I can't breathe. I hope that you can fulfill this small wish of mine and let me stay by your side and protect you."

Zhou Yunjie bowed very low in front of Chen Meng'er. However, the more Zhou Yunjie behaved like this, the more uncomfortable Chen Meng'er felt. She looked at Zhou Yunjie and said after a long while, "Yunjie, you don't have to be like this. I'm not worth it for you to treat me like this."

"Little Miss, whether you're worth it or not, it's not up to you to decide. It's up to me. I feel that you're worth it for me." Zhou Yunjie looked at Chen Meng'er with a serious expression.

Facing Zhou Yunjie like this, Chen Meng'er's words of rejection were simply unspeakable. Moreover, what else could she say? Zhou Yunjie had already said so much.

Chen Meng'er sighed deeply and said to Zhou Yunjie, "It's not early today. You should go back and rest first. I've been tired all day. If there's anything you want to say, we can talk about it tomorrow."

Chen Meng'er still had the intention of avoiding him. However, at least she did not reject him outright. This made Zhou Yunjie's heart, which had been hanging on a thread for a long time, finally feel a little more stable. He still understood Chen Meng'er's character.

Chen Meng'er did not reject him outright. This meant that the possibility of him staying was eighty percent.

Chen Meng'er returned to her room. After she locked the door, she flashed into her space.

She was very frustrated. Sometimes, being liked by others was also a very annoying thing. Especially when the person who confessed to her was a good friend by her side or someone whom she treated as a brother.

"Sigh, in my previous life, why didn't I have these emotional matters pestering me? How come after I was reborn, these emotional matters have changed so much?" After taking a bath, Chen Meng'er originally wanted to read some medical books to calm her emotions, but now she was frustrated and couldn't take it in at all.

To others, being loved by all was something that made people happy. However, when it came to Chen Meng'er, it was something that made her feel very vexed.

She didn't want to let anyone down. She didn't want to hurt anyone because of her.

However, sometimes, this was not something she could control.

The next day, as expected, Chen Meng'er had dark circles and went to eat breakfast.

When Elder Liu saw the dark color under Chen Meng'er's eyes, he said with some heartache, "Girl, did you not sleep well last night?"

"Yes." Chen Meng'er appeared a little listless.

"Girl, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter some difficult matter? Tell me. Although I don't care about official matters now, I still have the ability to give you advice." Elder Liu thought that Chen Meng'er was dealing with the Green Gang and the Liu family and had encountered some difficulties in their affairs, which was why she couldn't sleep at night.

"It's nothing." Facing Elder Liu, Chen Meng'er couldn't open her mouth.

"You brat, why are you being so polite with me? If there's anything difficult, just tell me. Or are you saying that I am too old and don't have the ability to give you advice?" Elder Liu tried goading her.

"Grandpa, you clearly know that it's not like this." Chen Meng'er looked at Elder Liu helplessly. Finally, she closed her eyes and said, "I'm in a difficult situation. How should I deal with my own feelings?"

Elder Liu, who was eating porridge with his head lowered, choked. "Girl, what did you say just now?"

"I said, I'm in a difficult situation about how to deal with my feelings." Chen Meng'er went all out and said it. She did not feel that there was anything difficult to say.

"What's wrong? Aren't you dating that kid, Yuwen Jing?" Saying this, Elder Liu seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He put the chopsticks down and looked at Chen Meng'er with a serious face. "Is that kid, Yuwen Jing, fooling around outside again? Or is it that he's hurt you? Don't be afraid. Just tell me. I'll teach this kid a lesson."

Elder Liu had been wanting to teach Yuwen Jing a lesson for quite a while now.

"Grandpa, it's not like that," Chen Meng'er said weakly, "It's not Yuwen Jing."

"Then what is it? Is It Chen Ming? Ah, don't give in to that kid just because his grandpa, Elder Wharton, is here. Don't worry. No one can force you to do things that you don't want to do. I will take care of Chen Ming's grandpa."

"It's not like that, Grandpa." Chen Meng'er shook her head.

"Then what?" Elder Liu was confused. "Is there a brat I don't know who misses you?"

Sometimes, having a granddaughter who was too popular was a burden for a grandfather.

"It's Yunjie. He confessed to me yesterday." Chen Meng'er thought that Elder Liu knew that Zhou Yunjie liked her earlier than she did, so he didn't hide anything.

"What? Yunjie confessed to you? Are you sure?" Elder Liu looked at Chen Meng'er with shocked expression.

"Yes, do I look like the kind of person who talks nonsense?" Chen Meng'er asked weakly.

Elder Liu, on the other hand, smiled and patted his leg. He said, "The sun has risen from the west. Yunjie actually opened his mouth. I thought that kid would bury his feelings for you in the bottom of his heart and take it with him to the grave."

"He did have that thought."
