Chapter 398 Two Time and Space, One Destiny
As soon as Li Jing said this, she took action.
Zhang Shuai felt that she was stealing the limelight and insisted on sharing the profits equally with her.
When the others heard about this, they all wanted to join in.
Finally, the 6 million investment was jointly provided by Li Jing (2 million), Zhang Shuai (1.5 million), Gao Cheng (1 million), Lin Hai (1 million), and Liu Xin (500,000).
Tian Xin owed one favor after another, and with this one added on, she could never repay it.
But they said that this was an investment for the public and it was a face-saving thing to do, and they were grateful to Tian Xin for letting them seize the opportunity.
Tian Xin knew that these friends were her greatest wealth.
Within three days, Xiaowan Resort was back to life. All projects were operating normally, with the exception of Lin Zhou's entertainment project, whose investor remained unchanged, with only Lin Hai's name added to the end. All other projects had been adjusted.
"Where did you get so much money?"
Afterwards, Tian Xin asked Zhang Shuai.
No wonder she asked. You know, a year ago, Zhang Shuai couldn't even come up with 5,000 yuan and had to borrow it from others.
Zhang Shuai didn't hold back and answered bluntly, "You've been to one of the three stores my mom gave me. They're all about the same size. The other two are in the city center, and their combined annual sales are about the same. I figured it out after a bit of tinkering."
"But you know, I can't pay it back."
"Who asked you to pay it back?" Zhang Shuai smiled and ruffled her hair. "Silly girl, this is an investment. You know more about investment than I do! There will be returns."
But even so, Tian Xin couldn't pay it back.
"I owe you so much," she said.
Zhang Shuai was displeased when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you owe me? You don't owe me anything, Boss. You will never owe me anything. It's me who owes you something that I can't repay."
"You don't owe me anything."
"What about this life?" Zhang Shuai looked at her. "Didn't you save it?"
"That doesn't count. Your life was saved by the doctor."
"No, you saved me, Boss." He insisted, "You have no idea how good you have been to me."
There were stars in his eyes, but when he looked at Tian Xin, his gaze was firm: "You will never understand how important you are to me."
"Then tell me." Tian Xin no longer avoided his gaze and smiled, "What kind of person am I in your heart?"
She just asked casually and didn't expect Zhang Shuai to answer.
But the next second, this guy actually started reciting poetry.
"The peach tree is young and tender, its flowers are bright and beautiful, and the daughter is getting married, which is a good match for the family."
She was a little surprised, but didn't interrupt him.
Then he continued, "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent. One smile can captivate a country, another can captivate a city."
She began to try hard to hold back her laughter.
Zhang Shuai, however, showed no sign of stopping and continued to recite: "Graceful as a startled swan, like a wandering dragon, glorious as autumn chrysanthemums, flourishing as spring pines..."
“Hahahahahahaha…”
She couldn't help herself: "When did you learn this? Who taught you? Is this how it is used?"
Zhang Shuai was a little embarrassed by her laughter, but seeing how happy she was, he said another word.
After hearing this, Tian Xin never laughed again. Every time she thought about it, she would sigh: It turns out that loving someone can really change a person a lot.
Zhang Shuai said this: "Boss, I've learned these words for years, always hoping to express them to you in person one day. But now that I've spoken them, I feel like these poems can't express what I mean at all. You know, I'm uneducated and can't say those sweet, sweet words. But boss, please believe me, in my heart, you are the best, the best, the best person in the world, bar none."
After listening to this, Tian Xin was silent for a long time. Neither of them spoke anymore, just looking at each other quietly.
After a long time, she suddenly asked him: "Did I ever tell you that you are my 'past life and present life'?"
Of course. How could Zhang Shuai not remember?
That night, she and Lin Zhou officially confessed their love and became a couple. Zhang Shuai broke down and asked her why?
She just said this: You are my past and present life.
Zhang Shuai didn’t understand at the time, but he felt that this matter was much more important than being a couple, so he didn’t dare to ask Tian Xin what she meant.
Now, Tian Xin finally gave him an explanation.
"Zhang Shuai, the last twenty years of my previous life were just like yours, lonely and helpless, and I suffered from indifference."
"Was it that bastard's fault?" Zhang Shuai was so angry that he started shaking and clenched his fists tightly.
She held his hand, her face calm and composed: "Not entirely, it's been many years, I don't hate him that much now."
"So how did you get through those days?"
"Just like you, struggling."
She said it easily, but Zhang Shuai knew that it must have been a period that she would rather not recall.
"So, that's why you think we are... alike."
"Um."
"when?"
"What...when?"
"When did you feel that...we were alike?"
Zhang Shuai stared into her eyes and held her hand tightly. "What does that feel like?"
Tian Xin smiled and said, "The first time we met, when you snatched my dates."
this……
"I'm a bastard." Zhang Shuai let go of her hand awkwardly and turned his gaze to the other side, not daring to look at her.
But he couldn't help but ask, "So at that time, you felt compassion? You meant... pity for me?"
"No one can fail to love another self. Zhang Shuai, I have never felt sorry for you."
This was Tian Xin’s answer.
Zhang Shuai was startled, and something in his heart seemed to stir. He immediately turned around and shook Tian Xin's hand again: "You...what did you say?"
He seemed to be unable to believe his ears, and before Tian Xin could answer, he asked her again impatiently: "What love did you say? Love...what?"
"I say..." Tian Xin looked at him quietly, her eyes as gentle as usual: "No one can fail to love another self. Zhang Shuai, you are you, but also another me. In two different time and space, we have the same destiny."
"No one will love you more than me, not even your mother or your relatives."
"Since God has allowed me to meet you, then, even if it costs me my life, I will protect you. What I failed to do in my last life, I will definitely not fail again in this life."
"Do you... understand?"
The two of them squatted in the wheat field in front of Tian Xin's house. The evening breeze blew through the treetops, making a rustling sound.
In the resort not far away, the nightlife has just begun and it is very noisy.
But Zhang Shuai couldn't hear anything.
The only thing that echoed in his ears was this sentence: No one will love you more than me.
Sometimes people feel relieved in an instant, let go of all their obsessions, and start over.
Zhang Shuai started from this moment.
He finally understood why Tian Xin rejected his confession and why she fell in love with Lin Zhou.
Save him, help him find his mother, and encourage him to live well.
Everything has an answer at this moment.
It turns out to be so early, so early.
His eldest brother, his sister, the person he loved most in his life, had loved him deeply so long ago.
"Boss... Boss. No, sister, Tian Xin..." Zhang Shuai called out three names in a row with sobs, and then hugged her in his arms again.
He stroked her hair and said over and over again: "I...will love you the same way I love myself in the future. Please believe me, I...I really love you, and I will keep my word."
I know, I've always known it, Tian Xin said to him silently in her heart.
