Chapter 14: Reborn

"You see, Sister Meiying, I came back from the future," Xu Qianghua said to Liu Meiying.

When he said this, he expected her to not believe him. But her reaction stunned him.

"So you finally told me, huh?" Liu Meiying said, nodding.

"What do you mean, Sister Meiying?" Now it was Xu Qianghua's turn to be stunned.

"I mean, you've been acting weird since this morning, and you know I have a camera in the room, so I saw the time you woke up. This made me suspicious, but I wrote it off as a bad dream. But after you told me about the shares and upcoming events, which someone who never leaves the house shouldn't know, I realized something was off.

So, either you are crazy, which you don't seem to be, or someone else is using you, which I checked and found to be untrue. Finally, it had to be that you can see the future or came from it," Liu Meiying reasoned.

Xu Qianghua was speechless. He just looked at Liu Meiying for a few seconds, processing what she said.

'Gotta give it to her, she is the same as I remember. Still really smart,' he thought.

"Okay, you win. Yes, I was reborn back in time before a major change happened that will change everyone's lives" he told her, semi-revealing but did not completely reveal everything.

"And when is that going to happen?" she asked, putting her hands on Xu Qianghua's cheek.

"In a month," he replied.

"And in this month, the main events that happen are what I have told you," he continued. He then detailed all that would happen in that month and explained why she should quit the company and enjoy this time because they would be working hard starting the next month.

"We need to make as much money as we can because we will need it when the change happens as it will give us a better headstart. So I want to earn as much money as I can so that the future will not be the same as it was in my last life" Xu Qianghua explained.

"Okay, we will do as you said. I will deal with the shares and my resignation tomorrow and enjoy the free time with you and Weiwei," Liu Meiying agreed. She did this because she believed Xu Qianghua would not lie to her and whatever he said was most likely true.

She was also glad to leave the job because it only reminded her of negative memories of Xu Qianghua's parents, so she was happy to leave that place.

"Good. I think I did pretty well," Liu Anwei said, hugging Xu Qianghua.

"I'm sure you did great. You are the smartest in that class," Xu Qianghua praised Liu Anwei.

"Thanks," she said, smiling happily at the praise.

"Did you eat anything, or do you want me to cook you something?" Liu Meiying asked.

"No, we already ate at the cafeteria," she replied to her mother.

"Okay," her mother replied.

While they were having that conversation, Xu Qianghua looked at the time on the desk monitor. It was already 8 p.m. When he saw that, he was a little surprised but not much because he and Liu Meiying had talked a lot.

"It's late. How about we continue this tomorrow?" Xu Qianghua suggested.

"Alright," both Liu Anwei and Liu Meiying replied.

"But before that, I am going to take a quick shower," Liu Anwei said as she left the study and went to the master bedroom bathroom to take a shower.

When Liu Meiying saw Liu Anwei leave, she asked, "Are you going to tell her about your rebirth?"

"I don't know yet. I feel like I should tell her now as she will learn about this sooner or later," Xu Qianghua said, thinking about ways to tell her about his rebirth. He wanted to tell her but did not know how she would respond. He was mostly sure she would respond similarly to how Liu Meiying responded, fully trusting him, but there was a possibility she might react differently.

While he was thinking about this, Liu Meiying, who was sitting in his lap and leaning her back against him, stood up. She then walked towards the door and called him.

"Qiangqiang, let's go and talk to her after she comes out instead of worrying about it."

"Haaah, fine," he said as he also stood up and walked out of the study room.

They then came to the main bedroom and sat down on the soft bed, talking while waiting for Liu Anwei to come out.
