When Qi Xu was 18, he was taken back into a wealthy family. When he was 28, he died in that wealthy family.
Looking back on those ten years, Qi Xu realized that he had been pretty heartless.
In order to prove how sensible he was, he had actually refused the gemstones, luxury cars, houses, and yachts his biological parents gave him, wasting their good intentions.
He spent his whole life trying to prove that he was no worse than the fake young master. In the end, he ended up estranged from everyone and fell down the stairs to a bloody death.
After being reborn, Qi Xu decided to take everything home with him.
On the first day Qi Xu was recognized by the Shen family, Mr. and Mrs. Shen prepared two sapphires for the swapped young masters.
The fake young master, so well-behaved it broke hearts, said, “I already have a lot of gemstones. Mom, can I donate them to build a school for the children in the mountains?”
Qi Xu, who was receiving a gemstone for the first time, stared at it without blinking. “Mom, can you buy me a safe to keep my gemstones in?”
When first-year classes began, Mr. and Mrs. Shen prepared two apartments in a school district for the swapped young masters, to make it easier for them to go to school.
The fake young master refused with practiced ease. “Dad, I haven’t even lived in the seaside house yet. Give the school-district apartment to someone who needs the school district.”
Qi Xu accepted with practiced ease. “Thank you, Dad. I’ll move in right away.”
Just as everyone was praising the fake young master for being obedient and sensible, and not caring about material things, Qi Xu was already collecting rent at the school-district apartment.
The tenant was none other than the fake young master’s childhood friend, the Xie family’s favored son, Xie Huai, who had been born at the top of the pyramid.
When rent day came each month, Qi Xu knocked on Xie Huai’s door. “Rent’s due.”
Xie Huai, who had just come out after showering, casually towel-dried his half-dry hair. “It’s Valentine’s Day today. Any special offer?”
Qi Xu said flatly, “No. What’s there to celebrate Valentine’s Day for when you’re all alone?”
Xie Huai bent down and kissed the corner of Qi Xu’s mouth. “Can you let me enjoy a promotion with free utilities and half-price rent?”
Qi Xu let out a cold laugh. “Dream on.”
The person you can have. The rent cannot be reduced.
Qi Xu packed up and took away many things he had never had in his previous life, including Xie Huai, who he had only spoken to a few times back then.
