Chapter 1: The Collapse of Heaven

Mine clearance: Two men, two Cs, no outline, poor writing, purely fictional.

Nantongwen, I hope friends who don’t like it can just cross it out, straight guys, don’t read it, run!

It's basically all in vernacular Chinese. (There are some transliterations, and babies who understand it may feel a little disconnected, but it's rare, so feel free to read it.)

I know it's impossible to satisfy everyone's taste, but I hope you can give me a good review when I complain. (Please, please)

Follow my lead, throw away your brain, Aba Aba——

Nineteen eighty-five, October, autumn.

The edge of Wanshui Lane is quite prosperous, with neon lights flashing at every end of the street. Girls in scantily dressed clothes are smoking impatiently on the street, and I wonder if they are annoyed that they are being taken advantage of again.

Groups of street urchins were also swearing all over the place. I wonder who had offended them again.

When Lin Jianyan saw this scene, his expression became calm. He lowered the brim of his hat and hurried over.

The shouts of the newsboys echoed through the streets. Hearing the content of the shouts made him stop in his tracks.

"Sell the newspaper! Sell the newspaper! Top news, the young master of Li's Bank spent a fortune on Miss Shen Xingya and had a big fight with Master Wang!"

"Breaking news! Breaking news! The Hong Gang has been acquired by the Qin Group. From now on, a major gang has come to an end!"

Lin Jianyan stopped and waved to the newspaper boy, who ran over and said, "Sir, would you like to buy a newspaper?"

Lin Jianyan nodded and handed him the money. The child smiled happily and took out a newspaper from the basket and handed it to him.

Lin Jinyan took the newspaper, which contained mostly gossip, such as which celebrity had a scandal, or how rich young men spent huge sums of money on their beloved women. However, the information Lin Jinyan wanted only occupied a corner of it, but it was visible to everyone at a glance.

[The Qin family has achieved another success, regaining the Hong League, and loudly announced that young people with ability and ambition can apply for the job! ]

Attached is a photo. The man in it is sitting in an arrogant posture, smiling like a gangster. There is a scar between his right eyebrow, which makes his eyes sharp. Staring at him makes people feel bloodshot. He doesn't look like the boss of a company. It is more convincing to say that he is a gang leader.

Lin Jianyan took a look and then lowered his eyes: "Not yet..." Wait a little longer.

I folded the newspaper and put it in my outer pocket, then continued walking home. The surrounding environment became worse and worse until I walked into an area of ​​old rental buildings.

That is Lin Jianyan’s current home, a dilapidated old building, shabby and outdated in every way. Getting water depends on the time and weather, but the good thing is that the rent is cheap.

As soon as I walked into the alley gate, a few rascals came out from the side. The leader was dressed in colorful clothes and had a cigarette butt in his mouth that he had picked up from somewhere.

He stopped Lin Jinyan with a playful smile and said, "Young man, I'm going away. I haven't seen you for so many days."

Lin Jianyan wanted to go around him, but was stopped by the two younger brothers behind him: "Hey, my big brother is talking, didn't you hear me?"

Lin Jinyan's eyes flashed with bad luck, so he could only send them away and said with a smile: "Brother Huang Liang, you also know the situation of my family, what can I do?"

Huang Liang's eyes widened as he watched Lin Jianyan smile at him. He had been dreaming about this beauty for a long time. He was always completely infatuated with her, but until now he had not gained any advantage from her.

Huang Liang was stunned. No one spoke and the air was silent. One of the younger brothers behind him was also stunned for a moment and then quickly came to his senses. He didn't like this.

He called Huang Liang "brother" twice and saw that Huang Liang didn't respond, so he gritted his teeth and slapped him in the face. Huang Liang was immediately brought back to his senses: "Who hit me!"

The younger brother quickly changed the subject and reminded him: "Brother, it's your turn to speak!"

Huang Liang just remembered, touched his chin, looked at Lin Jianyan with ill intentions, and gave a lewd smile: "Yanzi, you see, I have been pursuing you for so long, just agree to date me..."

The younger brother poked him again: "Brother, money, money."

Huang Liang shook his arms and said impatiently, "What money? Don't talk about money until you meet him. If he is mine, why would I ask for money? I have to give him all my money."

Lin Jianyan looked up at him and curled his lips: I don’t even want a dog.

I was dumbfounded. No, that wasn’t what I said at the beginning. I had even thought about how to spend the money, and just, it’s gone?

Huang Liang continued to look at Lin Jianyan with a smile, "What do you think?"

Lin Jianyan pretended to be embarrassed and lowered his head, "Are you really going to let me keep all your money in the future?"

Huang Liang nodded with a pug-like look on his face: "Will I still lie to you?"

Lin Jianyan said a few perfunctory words to him, lowered his head and was about to leave: "Then I'll think about it."

Huang Liang stopped Lin Jianyan and asked in panic, "Then how long do you have to think about it?"

Lin Jianyan: "...Give me five days, I'll come back to you when I've made up my mind."

Huang Liang was smart now: "No! It's too long. I'll give you three days. If you don't agree after three days, I'll take your house away from you."

Lin Jianyan gritted his teeth and smiled: "Okay! Then you have to promise me that you can't come to me in the next three days, and you can't force me, otherwise I won't agree."

Huang Liang nodded hurriedly, almost swearing: "Don't worry, I will never let anyone disturb you."

The little brother next to me has no hope in life and didn't catch anything. What's the point of eating fish balls? Just go home and eat plain noodles.

Lin Jianyan sent the man away and returned home exhausted. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his brother busy in the kitchen. White porridge was already on the table: "Ah Hao, you are not listening again. Didn't I tell you to work less? Where is mom?"

Ah Hao just came out with a plate of food, and Lin Jiayan took it. Lin Jiahao smiled and said nonchalantly, "Brother, I'm not that delicate. Mom hasn't come back yet."

"Mom, she's..." Lin Jianyan was speechless.

Zhang Xiufang, a woman who was born into a prostitute family, had no idea who her parents were. She grew up in a brothel and started receiving clients at the age of seventeen, where she met their father. It was impossible to find out who their father was, but all we knew was that he was a famous wealthy man twenty years ago with a lot of concubines at home, and he fell in love with Zhang Xiufang halfway through his life.

His mother became pregnant with him less than two months after she got married, and later gave birth to a boy, the original "Lin Jianyan". However, this ruined Lin's father's happiness. Although he had many sons and grandchildren, the fact that he had a son in his old age proved that he was still as skilled as ever. His mother also enjoyed a period of glory and was extremely doted on. His wife and concubines had their handkerchiefs tangled up countless times.

Until the following year, she got pregnant again. After nine months of pregnancy, she gave birth to Lin Jiahao, and gifts flowed into the house again.

Lin Jiahao was a child with a hard life. He was prone to illness since childhood. He did not enjoy wealth for a few days after he was born. When he was just one month old, his grandfather Lin died. The eldest wife could not tolerate the three of them, so the women in the backyard divided their things and teamed up to drive them out.

Zhang Xiufang was no pushover either. She tried her best to snatch back some things, but her income was not enough to make ends meet. It was too difficult for a woman to raise two children in this world, so she found a man and remarried.

The man pretended to be nice to them for a while at first, but within two years his true colors were exposed. He smoked and gambled, taking away a lot of his mother's money, and beat and scolded Lin Jianyan and Lin Jiahao.

Zhang Xiufang couldn't stand it, so she set fire to the man's house and ran away with him and his wife. They ended up here. They didn't have much money left, and they had two children to raise. Lin Jianyan was weak, and Lin Jiahao was often sick. The doctor said that they were born with deficiencies and must be taken care of. The family had no money, so they had to borrow money. They were all poor, so how much could anyone lend? She had no choice but to take out a loan.

She was in debt with high interest rates, so if she wanted to make more money she had to go back to her old job. However, she was old and had children, so she made little.

Not long after she started working, the so-called dark alley was investigated, and she had no choice but to look for another job, but she met with rebuffs everywhere until a few years ago when she finally managed to enter a nightclub as a dancer. Later, her manager noticed that she had a good voice, so she became a singer again.

Although we did encounter some unscrupulous people who wanted to take action, fortunately the manager was a good person, and these important people were willing to do so, so nothing went wrong.

She was popular for a while in the beginning and her life was better, but as she got older, she was replaced by newcomers. Her era became obsolete and her position as lead singer was taken over. She was reduced to an insignificant and ugly character, playing supporting roles for the lead singers and being ridiculed.

Lin Jianyan asked her not to go, and she said, "Yanzi, I have never straightened my back in my life, but when I stood on that stage, I felt that I was not a lowly person, because my songs and my voice were watched and admired by thousands of people. When I felt that I was clean, my songs were clean, and my back was straight."

Lin Jinyan wanted to say that they might not like your songs, but they might just want to play with you. However, when he saw the light in her eyes, he couldn't continue.

Zhang Xiufang has suffered so much. How could she not understand after going through so much? She just still has hope in her heart.

When Lin Jinyan came, the original owner hit his head and died instantly. When he woke up, he was a different Lin Jinyan.

In the original world, as the special assistant of the big boss president, he was also worth a lot of money. Although he could not be said to have the support of everyone, everyone was willing to give him some face. Faced with this devastating start, he simply did not want to live anymore and was useless for a while. Lin Jiahao was watching him every day for fear that he would commit suicide.

Later, the debt collectors came to the door and started smashing things after a disagreement. The leader saw that Lin Jinyan was good-looking and wanted to sell him into the club. Lin Jinyan resisted and bit the leader, who slapped him in the face and almost robbed him. He was protected by Lin Jiahao and was not robbed.

Those people beat Lin Jiahao half to death, and only stopped because they were afraid of causing a loss of life. When Lin Jianyan saw Lin Jiahao protecting him, his heart came alive.

He wanted to live. He had a second life, which was arranged by fate. He had to live for himself and for this family.
