Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 12: A Day Out with the Little Rich Lady

After sending Guo Zihang away, Jiang Qin also left the beef noodle restaurant and headed to the Jizhou City Library, then took his wealthy young benefactor to the small commodity city.

Feng Nanshu was wearing a fairy-like floral dress today, slung across with a small black leather bag, stepping in brown leather shoes, with a glimpse of lace thin socks adorned with frills at the edges, exuding a full sense of youthfulness.

With the soul of a greasy 38-year-old, Jiang Qin couldnt help but think that she was so tender, she almost seemed to ooze water.

She strolled along the narrow walkway, her clear, bright eyes flitting about, filled with curiosity for the goods displayed at the stalls.

This small commodity city was quite famous among the students of Chengnan High School because it sold mostly imitation goods at low prices and offered a wide variety.

Students were really poor.

Especially day students who ate at home day and night and didnt have much pocket money.

So, come the weekend, they flock here in groups, but what they buy is mostly for show and not very practical.

Feng Nanshu probably heard about this place from others at school, which is why she suggested coming here to look around.

Why do they have so many car keys?

Ah those are actually lighters.

Do I need to take a test for a beauty certificate? I want to get one.

Thats fake, it has no real value. If you want it, just buy it, one yuan each.

Jiang Qin, Im thirsty, I want a Sprite.

Youre mistaken. Thats its sister brand, Lei Bi.

Why is this underwear torn in the middle and still for sale?

Eh, youre still young, dont pry into adult matters.

Three minutes later, Feng Nanshu stopped in front of a shop at the corner, seemingly unable to move.

In front of her was a Hello Kitty-themed rocking horse, flashing with lights, invitingly calling out to little friends to come and play.

Feng Nanshu turned her head, looking quietly at Jiang Qin with a cold gaze that sparkled with a hint of determination, leaving him utterly baffled.

You dont really want to play on this, do you?

Miss, listen to me, this thing is meant for children under eight years old.

Youre eighteen now, playing with this would definitely be social suicide.

Jiang Qin tried to persuade her to give up the idea. Although the toy lit up, moved, and even sang, one really needed to be wearing split-crotch pants to qualify to play on it.

Three minutes later, a melodious song echoed from the corner store.

What is fathers father called? Fathers father is called grandfather

The beautiful girl rode on it, giggling merrily, her whole being seemingly soaring with joy.

Jiang Qin, holding the change he got from the store, couldnt help but laugh. He leaned against the doorframe of the shop, quietly observing her.

He once accidentally saw a laminated schedule in Feng Nanshus bag piano and violin practice in the morning, ballet and judo at noon, watching the news and reading financial papers in the evening. It was only in the afternoon that she could take a breather at the library.

The little rich lady probably didnt have much of a childhood

Thats why she has no friends, doesnt socialize, turned into a social phobic, and was misunderstood as aloof.

Jiang Qin smiled and turned his attention away, instead casually pulling out a contract from his bag.

He now owned four sets of resettlement housing, varying in size, costing a total of 2.73 million yuan from his card.

The compensation plan for the old city reconstruction in Jizhou City hadnt been announced yet, and he hadnt seen it in his previous life either. But based on the compensation his uncle received in Lianqiao, the compensation in the bustling areas could reach a ratio of 1:2.8. The locations of Xingfu Community and Hongyun Community were more remote, so their compensation wasnt as high, at most 1:2.1.

He was unsure about the situation in Rongcheng, but it should be around 1:2.4.

Jizhou wasnt like Jingdu or Shen City, where one could get rich overnight through demolition. Reaching this ratio was already quite rare, what more could one ask for.

It should be noted that the former eight villages located in the North Second Road were also included in the demolition scope in 2018, but the compensation ratio was only 1:1.3.

What did this imply?

This means that in demolition, just like in love, timing was really important.

Once the demolition compensation was in hand, Jiang Qin planned to repay the money borrowed from Feng Nanshu. By that time, he should still have one or two million left, in addition to owning four properties.

Of course, he could opt for cash instead of the properties, but direct cash-out would unlikely match the market value. So, the best approach would be to sell them personally after acquisition. However, this depended on the specific location of the resettlement housing. If it was in an area expected to surge in value, hell definitely keep it.

Jiang Qin didnt plan to idle around during the wait for the demolition.

He intended to withdraw 270,000 yuan to start a business.

Purchasing demolition properties was speculative, but starting a real business was a different game. To quickly transition into an entrepreneurs mindset, he needed to familiarize himself with business processes and strategies.

Therefore, he planned to use this 270,000 yuan as capital to start a small venture in Jizhou, considering it a trial run before officially launching a business.

As he contemplated this, the music from nearby suddenly stopped.

The swinging time had ended.

But Feng Nanshu, riding on the Hello Kitty, was reluctant to get off, her eyes shimmering with an unfinished desire.

Jiang Qin, smiling helplessly, fished out a coin from his pocket and handed it to her.

Come play with me, Feng Nanshu pointed to another rocking horse beside her.

Me? A big man, a formidable gentleman, an unmatched hero you must be joking

Three minutes later, a duet of What is Fathers Father Called? echoed from the entrance of the small shop.

Jiang Qin sat in the disproportionately sized carriage, swaying along with Hello Kitty, his face showing an expression of amazement.

This thing

Its actually damn fun!

After a long while, the two frantic Hello Kitty horses finally stopped, and the shop owner came out, his brows tightly furrowed, his eyes filled with a murderous look.

How much does a child weigh?

How much does a big, tall young man weigh?

Shouldnt he have some sense, damn it!

However, Jiang Qin didnt notice the shop owners expression and reached into his jeans pocket, pulling out an old Nokia phone left by his father.

While on the rocking horse, he kept feeling something vibrating. Upon checking his phone, he realized it was the QQ message alert, still the 2008 version of Falling in Love with Mobile QQ, which was quaintly retro.

Brother Jiang, guess where the class reunion is this time!

Alright, alright, I wont keep you in suspense. The reunion is also in the city center, how coincidental is that?

Qin Ziang booked a class banquet at the nearby Longwei Hotel. Im heading there now. Today, we must make that fool cry!

By the way, arent you also near the city center? After eating, Ill come find you, and we can go home together!

Guo Zihangs profile picture showed a long-haired man wearing sunglasses, with a sepia-toned filter, the epitome of non-mainstream.

Jiang Qin found it hard to understand why Guo, who was short, fat, and dark, insisted on using a skinny guy as his avatar.

This is ridiculous

Damn, this nine-button physical keyboard is ridiculously hard to use! (nokia)

Jiang Qin pressed the end call button, returning to the homepage, completely lacking the patience to reply to the message.

Little rich lady, where do you want to go next?

Lets go eat junk food!

Feng Nanshu stretched out her hand, pointing towards a snack shop ahead with her delicate, jade-like fingers, her eyes twinkling brightly.
