Lu Nian had always kept his resentment towards Jiang He to himself.

After all, he would need to ask Jiang He for money for his tuition and living expenses. If they fell out, no one would support his studies.

Therefore, for the next three years, Lu Nian could ask Jiang He for money with a clear conscience and a sense of entitlement.

Especially after pursuing Lulu, all those extravagant expenses were attributed to Jiang He.

Whether it was self-brainwashing or his inherently vicious and scoundrelly nature, Lu Nian considered it a matter of course that Jiang He would give him money, as if Jiang He owed him something.

It was Jiang He's decision not to send him to a prestigious school that ruined his life.

Now that he has lost his career, he can only pursue love, and Jiang He has to take responsibility for him.

These words were spoken by Jiang He after being betrayed by Lu Nian, losing her last hope, becoming impoverished, and having no choice but to move into a dark basement.

After learning that Lu Nian had betrayed him, he found Lu Nian and confronted him.

"Lu Nian, haven't I been good enough to you?"

"I considered you my only friend, and I always helped you and took care of you. I even went to Liu Ruyan, Jiang Muyun, and Shen Mingyue for your sake!"

"I've been so good to you, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say my kindness is as heavy as a mountain, so why would you help others to harm me? Why would you betray me?"

Then Lu Nian told him all this, saying that he had hated him from the very beginning.

They said he committed the crimes against Lulu, that he killed Lulu.

If murder weren't illegal, he definitely wouldn't have let Jiang He live; he would have killed Jiang He and made him pay with his life for Lulu.

They said he deliberately betrayed him, that he was the one who contacted the other party and betrayed Jiang He.

All for the sake of making him lose everything and suffer a terrible death!

Looking at the hatred etched on Lu Nian's狰狞 face, Jiang He suddenly found it all ridiculous.

I also suddenly lost the desire to explain.

When he said that he hated Lulu because of her death, I was initially surprised.

He even considered explaining to Lu Nian whether there was some misunderstanding.

But after listening to Lu Nian's inner journey, and hearing his grievances and resentment towards him, I realized that...

He suddenly understood what it meant to be grateful for a small favor but resentful of a large one.

What does it mean to repay a great kindness with ingratitude, only to repay kindness with enmity?

He was too good to Lu Nian, considering Lu Nian his only friend, and he was completely devoted to him, even at the cost of his own interests, to help him.

Lu Nian, on the other hand, was an ingrate; he never considered him a friend.

After he was taken back to the Jiang family, Lu Nian felt only jealousy and resentment towards him.

No matter how good he was to Lu Nian, Lu Nian took it all for granted, and even felt it wasn't enough, thinking he was hypocritical and pretentious.

He always treated him with the worst attitude.

In his heart, Jiang He was never a good person.

That's why, when Lulu ridiculously shifted the blame, he didn't even have a second thought and believed Lulu's nonsense without hesitation.

They blamed all the mistakes on him.

Even if these things happened in a past life, in that life, I had already tried my best to forget and let go of those pains.

But now, thinking about it again, Jiang He still feels extremely uncomfortable.

My heart felt heavy, as if something was pressing down on it, making it hard to breathe, and I felt extremely depressed and helpless.

Judging from the timeline, the reason Lu Nian took the initiative to contact him must be because he and Lulu had already become boyfriend and girlfriend.

In his past life, Lu Nian told Lulu that he knew the Jiang family and could help Lulu become a star.

Lulu only agreed to be his girlfriend after that.

At that time, he directly messaged him, saying that he had a girlfriend and asked him to ask his family for help and to get some resources.

In this life, he was reborn.

Thanks to the promotion by Qilixiang and Chen Feng, it gained some popularity.

Lu Nian noticed this, which is why he changed his mind and didn't directly ask him and his family for resources.

Instead, she took the initiative to ask him to meet.

They probably want to directly leverage Jiang He's popularity to promote Lulu and write songs for her.

The Jiang family is a layer apart, so how could they be as easy to fool as Jiang He and help them quickly and conveniently?

However, he is probably destined to be disappointed in this lifetime.

In this second life, Jiang He's brotherly affection for him had long been exhausted by him in his previous life.

The fact that Jiang He didn't immediately retaliate against him already shows that she is kind-hearted and simply didn't think of him at the moment.

Now, anyone who wants to get Jiang He's resources for free is dreaming.

Jiang He picked up her phone, completely ignoring his probing and overtures.

Focusing on just one key point, Lu Nian said he was doing an internship.

I replied that since he's earning money during his internship, I won't be sending him any more money.

It also included a bill, which was an account of all the money he had spent on Lu Nian over the years.

As the saying goes, even close brothers should keep clear accounts. Knowing that Lu Nian cares about his reputation and will definitely pay back the money, we should just let Lu Nian pay back the total amount on the bill, without charging him interest.

Ironically, Lu Nian clearly hated him to death, yet she said she didn't care about his money.

But every time he asks Jiang He for money, he has to put on a show of being innocent and virtuous, saying that he won't take Jiang He's money for nothing and that he will definitely pay her back in the future.

In her past life, Jiang He would never have asked Lu Nian for money; on the contrary, she would have been moved and given him even more money.

Things are definitely different now.

He was determined to make Lu Nian return all that money to him.

Even if he were to waste his money or burn it, he would rather not let Lu Nian benefit from it.

Lu Nian was probably waiting for his reply.

As soon as he sent the message, Lu Nian replied instantly.
