Rebirth: Once Again With You

Thankfully, Dai Zhiqiang did not mind the disgusting visual of what used to be ice cream and ate it silently. After that, Li Caiyi, who felt awkward, quickly found an excuse to escape and bade the brothers goodbye.

Li Caiyi was happy he finally reunited with Dai Shenqiang. As for Dai Zhiqiang, she gave him the worst first impression ever.

Well, actually, that was not their first meeting, but Li Caiyi did not know he was related to Shen Qiang back then, so she did not give him much thought, but now his frowning face was haunting her mind.

Dai Zhiqiang seemed to be a strict person. Li Caiyi could not help but feel self-conscious around him.

Then, Dai Shenqiang's face appeared on her mind. Li Caiyi thought about their brief embrace, and her face heated up.

Dai Shenqiang. So that was his full name. Li Caiyi could never get tired of repeating that name over and over again. His facial features were a lot softer, but he was still handsome. Her mood was over the moon when she thought she would spend her time with her love once again.

Li Caiyi could not stop smiling. She was so happy she momentarily forgot where she was going. The hospital was pretty big, but her luck was small. Although she could avoid her father and his mistress when she came in, that luck backfired when she was about to go out.

"Xiaoyi."

Li Caiyi was already disgusted just by hearing Li Jirong call her name, much less seeing him approach her. No matter how badly her family treated her, Li Caiyi knew that everything her family had to suffer was thanks to this person's influence.

Her mother had to obey him all the time and could never raise her head properly in front of him because this man always verbally and physically abused her.

Her brother became reticent because this man kept pressuring him to become their family's star of hope.

Her sister's mentality worsened because she feared that she had to live forever with this kind of man.

p And she, herself, had to die once while believing she was just a useless piece of trash.

Li Caiyi might not be that smart, but she was very clear on who was her enemy and not. She could not let Li Jirong act as he pleased anymore. It was still not too late; she could still do something to salvage the situation.

Li Jirong was wearing his white coat just like every other doctor there. He looked like a decent human being on the outside, but Li Caiyi knew how rotten he was inside. Thankfully, this time, he did not bring his mistress along. At least he still had some human decency, or he was probably just afraid that the young nurse would accidentally slip her mouth and give their affair away.

"Xiaoyi, we need to talk."

He did not even bother to ask why she would be here. Most fathers would usually be worried if they saw their daughter in the hospital.

Li Caiyi scoffed inwardly. This man was a person who could walk past his daughter while happily talking with his mistress without an ounce of shame. The day where he was worried about her would be the day of pig flying!

"What is it? I'm actually pretty busy."

"Is that how you talk to your father?" Li Jirong frowned in displeasure.

"I'm sorry, but I think Father had forgotten about something. I won our bet, so I think I have the right to do as I please."

Li Jirong's face darkened. His hands clenched into a fist, but he could not make a scene in the hospital. "Even if that's the case, that's not the way you treat your biological father. How could you be so unfilial?"

Filial piety? Li Caiyi had wasted a life living like an obedient child, but in the end, she still got abandoned like worn-out shoes.

Li Caiyi smiled. "Filial piety had no relation with our bet because you consented to it, Father. I think you also owe me an apology or are you just pretending to forget about that?"

Li Jirong felt the blood rush to his head. If it were not for their location, he would have grabbed this conceited girl and taught her a lesson already. How dare she challenge him like that? Did she think she had become something after just one pathetic competition?

"Y-you…"

Combined with her previous life, Li Caiyi had known Li Jirong longer than he knew Li Caiyi, so she could guess what was on his mind now. It was precisely because they were in a hospital that Li Caiyi said that, because Li Jirong would not be able to act recklessly here. It was so satisfying looking at his face contorted in a fury, but he could only swallow that anger begrudgingly.

Li Caiyi did not want to waste more time talking to him. How she hoped her prize money could be transferred sooner.

"If that's all, then I will leave first."

"Grr, make sure you keep your behavior in check in front of Young Master Meng. Don't do anything stupid and try to act more feminine. Your everyday look is too plain for a person with a high status like him. He must have countless girls who want to chase him, so use the chance given to you to tie him properly."

He called out to her just to talk about this. She should have known he would not have anything good to say to her.

'The more he said that the more I wanted to perform badly.'

Li Caiyi pretended she did not hear anything and walked away. Li Jirong was cursing behind her back, but she couldn't care less about him.

***

On the next day, Li Caiyi almost tripped in shock.

When Li Jirong came up to her yesterday, she thought he was talking about Meng Renshu's upcoming coming of age party, but after seeing the scene in front of her, she did not believe that was the only case.

On this lovely morning, the Li Family sat around the table and ate their breakfast as usual. Everything was normal, aside from one additional person who came uninvited.

Sitting across from her, Meng Renshu smiled brightly at her, and Li Caiyi suddenly lost her appetite.

This must be Li Jirong's doing!
