Jiang Tiecheng was reborn.
Just because he drew the lot to take over his father's job, he got an immense benefit.
His entire life, he had to help his mother raise his younger siblin...
He Xincheng sat at home, alone in his room, feeling sullen.
He was originally the pride of the He family, but because of this incident, He Xincheng fell from grace.
Soon someone knocked on the door.
He Xincheng hurriedly stood up as his grandfather walked in.
"Grandpa, what brings you here?"
You have the nerve to ask me why I came? If I hadn't come, how long were you planning to stay so depressed?
"You've been back for so long but haven't come out to see anyone or talk to anyone. Are you going to hide in your room your whole life?"
The old man sat on the sofa, leaning on his cane, looking at his grandson.
This was his grandson, whom he had raised with his own hands, but he never expected that just one incident would cause the child to suffer such a crushing defeat.
This was the hope of the He family, but they never expected that not only would that hope be shattered, but that he would never be able to become a doctor again.
It's important to know that Ouyang Zhenyu's ban directly deprived the He family of a future prominent figure.
He Xincheng lowered his head.
He was once an enviable genius in Shanghai's entertainment circle, the perfect child everyone admired.
He is the heir in the eyes of all the patriarchs.
But now his reputation in this industry is ruined.
I feel ashamed of my father and grandfather's expectations of me, and ashamed of my whole family's hopes for me.
Now he doesn't dare to go out, doesn't dare to see his other friends, and doesn't know what to say.
A respectable doctor can never be a doctor again in his life. Just for that reason alone, he knows he's finished.
"Grandpa, I know you want me to cheer up, but I've studied all my life and now I can't be a doctor, so what else can I do?"
"I'm finished in Shanghai, so please don't worry about me anymore."
The old man stood up angrily.
"Fine, you don't need me to take care of you. Then I won't. You can just hide in your room and be a coward for the rest of your life."
I've taught you so much since you were little, just so you'd hide from everyone?
You really disappoint me.
I've taught you so much since you were little, and one setback has crushed you. The hard work of generations of the He family has been severed with you.
Instead of thinking about starting over, you're thinking about escaping, about running away from your responsibilities.
You have really disappointed me.
He Xincheng's shoulders twitched, and he sobbed silently.
He also hoped to continue being the heir of the He family, but that wasn't possible now.
Everyone in this circle knows that Ouyang Zhenyu kicked him out. Ouyang Zhenyu is a very influential figure in the medical field.
Who would want to be at odds with Ouyang Zhenyu to protect themselves?
"Grandpa, I don't want it to be like this either, but I have no choice."
I can never be a doctor again in my life, so why are you asking me to go out?
To endure the ridicule of others.
Or should I start over? What should I do?
Grandpa, please tell me, what else can I do?
The old man turned around and said earnestly,
"New City, it's not a problem if you fall down, you just need to have the courage to get back up."
Although Ouyang Zhenyu is capable, he cannot control everything.
He Xincheng has also worked hard for many years and achieved great success.
This won't work, let's go outside.
Grandpa can find a way to send you to Hong Kong Island, where you will surely achieve great things.
Nobody knows your situation; you can start over on Hong Kong Island.
You must believe in yourself. You can become a good doctor and bring honor to your family.
This was the result of several days of discussion by the He family; they couldn't just stand by and watch He Xincheng fall into such a state of despair.
Their only son absolutely cannot bear such a failure.
Whether He Xincheng likes it or not, his family has already paved this path for him.
Upon hearing this, He Xincheng immediately collapsed to the ground.
"Grandpa, do I really have to leave home? Leave everyone here?"
Hong Kong Island was a completely unfamiliar place to me. If I really left home, I might never come back in my life.
Just imagine how terrifying that would be.
“Child, go away, go away. If you don’t go to Hong Kong Island, what can you do here?”
Are we going to never see them again?
I know what you're afraid of, so go to Hong Kong Island and start over.
Establish a foothold there. This time, it's your father's old classmate; his private hospital needs a doctor.
He values you highly, and you will have more than you have now when you go there.
Grandpa just hopes you'll learn your lesson this time. Never trust others so easily again.
Do your job well, and my grandfather hopes that one day you can return to our family in glory.
Let everyone know that you never let your elders down.
"Grandpa, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely make something of myself."
Hearing his grandson's assurance, Grandpa He nodded, patted his grandson on the shoulder, and turned to leave.
He Xincheng was about to leave, but he still hadn't gone out much. Today, he finally went out for a stroll after dark.
To be precise, he always waited until it was dark and no one could see him before he would come out for a walk to get some fresh air.
Walking along the familiar path, he arrived at the riverbank. The grove of trees here was lush and he loved the tranquility of the place. Sitting alone by the river, listening to the murmuring water, he felt as if he could calm down completely.
He Xincheng closed his eyes and recalled what had happened to him recently. He regretted his past actions, having incurred high-interest loans and easily trusted Li Shuyun.
In short, my life these days has been a complete mess, a total failure.
He told himself that he was going to start over and that going to Hong Kong Island might be the only chance his parents could give him.
Just as He Xincheng was lost in thought, he didn't realize that a woman was gradually approaching him.
If Ouyang Zhenyu were here, he would recognize that this is Li Shuyun, who is so thin she looks unrecognizable.
Compared to the Li Shuyun of the past, the Li Shuyun of today is not human at all; she looks like a skeleton wrapped in skin.
Li Shuyun pounced forward, and before anyone could react, she thrust her dagger at He Xincheng. He Xincheng felt a sharp pain all over his body and suddenly opened his eyes to see a cold glint in front of him.
Instinctively, I used my hand to block it, but unexpectedly, my palm was in excruciating pain.
When I looked again, all four of my fingers were almost gone.
Looking at the woman in front of him who seemed to be going crazy, He Xincheng couldn't help but back away.
"You're completely insane."
"I must be crazy. You go back to Shanghai to live a good life, but leave me to suffer in that godforsaken place."
I've gone mad. You guys have driven me mad.
If you don't have the ability to win over Ouyang Zhenyu, why are you dragging me into this mess?
Now look what's happened! Do you know I'm living a life worse than death?
I'm dying soon, so come down and keep me company on the way. Don't even think about leaving me to die alone; we'll die together.
