Reborn To Love

“So, what do you want?” He Xinyan quickly glanced up into Gu Yechen’s face and frowned. Why did he look so familiar? Where did she see him before? “I want you.” “. . .” Well, that was direct. He Xinyan opened her mouth to speak but she couldn’t form the right words. “Let's make a deal. You become my girlfriend and you can ask for anything in return.” “Anything?” He Xinyan repeated. Gu Yechen nodded his head, “Anything.” He Xinyan thought about what could help her but realized that there wasn’t much she needed as of now. However, she would definitely need support in the future. There were many things she couldn’t do by herself, but Gu Yechen would definitely be able to do. “How long would this deal last?” Gu Yechen leaned back against the couch casually, “However long I feel like.” “And. . . that is about how long?” “Forever.” --- He Xinyan’s life was in ruins. After being cheated on by her fiance, her life went downhill as she lived under endless rumors and hate comments. Her stepsister framed her for things she never did, her fiance betrayed her, and her father kicked her out of the house for being an unfilial daughter. At the lowest point of her life, she died. . . A car accident killed her, and also brought her back to eight years ago, before everything started going downhill. With a second chance, He Xinyan was determined to take back what was rightfully hers and also take revenge on those who hurt her in the past. He Xinyan thought that she was already prepared for all the lies and secrets from her past, but she realizes that her first life was only a joke as more secrets get uncovered. In her twisted life and story, He Xinyan couldn’t possibly defeat everyone’s schemes and achieve her goals by herself. Through an unexpected encounter, she met Gu Yechen, the cold and powerful CEO of the Gu Corporation. With a powerful and cunning man protecting and helping her this time around, He Xinyan was certain that her second chance would be successful! However, success doesn’t come easily. . . --- Note ~ No rape and no major misunderstandings Update: 1 to 2 chapters daily This is an original story by me and not a translation.

Confession

Lunch ended quickly and everyone left to prepare for filming again.

He Xinyan was originally inside Gu Yebei's room, but Yang Siyue dragged Xinyan into her room after. However, Wu Minger stayed inside Gu Yebei's room. 

Gu Yebei was in his emperor gown as he walked over to Wu Minger and looked down at her, who was sitting on a chair. 

Wu Minger felt her cheeks immediately heat up at the sight of Gu Yebei, but when a thought flashed through her mind, a frown appeared as she moved back a bit.

Gu Yebei bent down a little and was very direct with his question, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

"I. . . No."

"Good, then can I be your boyfriend?"

---

He Xinyan noticed that something was wrong when the next break came. Wu Minger left for the restroom and stayed in it for the entire time. Gu Yebei also seemed a little off. 

Yang Siyue had told her that they were together now, but He Xinyan was still a little suspicious. Filming ended a little before dinnertime, and Wu Minger drove He Xinyan home first. 

The car ride was silent for the first half until He Xinyan couldn't hold in her curiosity anymore. 

"Minger, what's wrong?"

It took a second for Wu Minger to process He Xinyan's words, "What? Nothing!"

"That response exposed you even more."

Wu Minger sighed. She really wasn't a good liar, "It's really nothing."

"Hurry up and tell me if we are best friends."

Wu Minger hesitated for a second before responding, "Gu Yebei confessed to me today. . ."

He Xinyan grinned slyly as she had guessed this already, "So you agreed?"

". . . No."

This response made He Xinyan surprised as her eyes widened, "What? Rejecting Gu Yebei?! Don't you like him?"

Wu Minger chuckled, "Then why did you reject Gu Yechen? He's even more perfect!"

"No, but seriously. Why?"

Wu Minger seemed to be thinking about something but in the end, she stopped herself, "Nothing, I just don't want to date a celebrity."

Wu Minger increased the car speed and He Xinyan didn't say anything more because it was evident Wu Minger didn't want to talk about it. 

After sending He Xinyan home, Wu Minger slowly drove back to her apartment with her mom and brother. 

She took a deep breath before opening the door, "Mom, older brother! I'm home!"

A tall man walked out of his room and smiled when he saw Wu Minger. The man wasn't extremely handsome, but he looked decent and gentlemanly. 

"Where's mom?" Wu Minger asked her older brother by two years, Wu Chenxi. 

"She went outside to buy some groceries."

"Oh. . ." Wu Minger walked in and poured herself a glass of water. The two of them were silent for a few seconds before Wu Minger spoke up.

"Today, Gu Yebei confessed to me," she said softly.

Wu Chenxi looked up and narrowed his eyes, "Gu Yebei. . . Gu Yechen's brother?"

"Yes."

Wu Chenxi didn't respond immediately as he seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he stepped forward and a sly smile crept up his face.

---

The next day, filming started early in the morning, and He Xinyan arrived separately from Wu Minger. 

After changing, He Xinyan walked into Gu Yebei's room and stole his seat right away. After a few days of interacting with each other, He Xinyan was much more comfortable around Gu Yebei now. She could joke around and bully him however she wanted because she knew he wouldn't take it seriously anyway.

Gu Yebei didn't seem to be in a very good mood this morning, and He Xinyan gently sipped the milk tea he had bought for her. 

"So, do you really like Minger?" 

Gu Yebei looked up and rubbed the back of his wig, "Well, yes. To be honest, I'm not really sure yet. I think so. I wanted to test out a relationship with her, but. . . she rejected me."

Gu Yebei seemed to be very concerned about being rejected. Was he getting old? Was his appearance deteriorating?

He Xinyan raised one eyebrow, "Well, that was quick."

"I know, I know. It's hard to think that I can like someone I just met and didn't even talk to much. I'm not so sure either, but I mean, it's worth a try! Plus, my brother already got himself a girlfriend. I need to catch up!"

He Xinyan laughed, "Well, you got rejected."

Gu Yebei frowned and sagged down dejectedly. 

He Xinyan silently drank her milk tea until the door opened. She thought it would be Yang Siyue, but instead, it was Wu Minger.

He Xinyan narrowed her eyes and eyed Wu Minger weirdly before standing up, "Well, I'm going to get out of here! Don't want to be an extra third wheeler!"

He Xinyan patted Gu Yebei on the back before running out of the room to go find Yang Siyue. Wu Minger awkwardly looked at Gu Yebei before walking forward. 

With her eyes closed, she said, "I agree to date you!"

It took a few seconds for her words to register in Gu Yebei's brian, "What?! Didn't you say no yesterday? You like me too?"

"I. . . I do like you."

"Why did you say no then?" Gu Yebei was indeed happy when he heard that Wu Minger liked him. Minger was totally his style, cute and innocent. He hasn't dated anyone yet in the 25 years of his life, so he was new to this romantic business. However, he could tell that after seeing Wu Minger, something clicked differently. He really hoped that this relationship might work out. . .

Plus, it was cool to date your sister in law's best friend! Interesting relationship. . .

"I. . . I don't know," Wu Minger said and looked away guiltily. 

Gu Yebei smiled sweetly and patted Wu Minger on the head, "It doesn't matter! You're my girlfriend now."

Wu Minger grinned, she liked Gu Yebei.

Gu Yebei ended up walking out of the private changing room holding hands with Wu Minger. He didn't really care if people figured out their relationship. As a child of the Gu family, he didn't have anything to be afraid of. The entertainment industry was just a side and fun job for him, and no one really dared to offend him. 

Wu Minger was blushing as the two of them walked over to their group of four seats.

Yang Siyue immediately began giggling when she saw the new couple, and He Xinyan joined in although she had some questions and doubts. 

What made Wu Minger change her mind so suddenly?

The two of them sat down and Wu Minger immediately looked away from embarrassment.

Yang Siyue giggled slyly, "Hm. . . So, what am I seeing here?"

"You are seeing me and my girlfriend," Gu Yebei smiled as he spoke.

"Congratulations!" He Xinyan said although she was also a little surprised. It has only been a few days and they were already together. Seems like Yang Siyue was very accurate in her predictions. . .

Wow. . . Who else is surprised?
