Chapter 1

July 7th, 2007, Saturday. The weather was clear and breezy.

Today's weather was as hot as ever, and the bricks at the construction site were particularly hot. The iced cola in the small shop opposite the construction site was still an unreachable dream.

Luo Beichen looked affectionately at the charming lady boss who weighed more than 200 pounds at the entrance of the small shop. He licked his dry lips.

Suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Luo Beichen placed a few bricks evenly on the cart.

It had been seven days since he came to this world. In other words, Luo Beichen had been moving bricks at the construction site for seven days.

Luo Beichen was not from this world. He originally belonged to another world and was a retired soldier.

Seven days ago, Luo Beichen had ended his two-year military career and retired with honor.

After reporting in and completing the relevant procedures, Luo Beichen's military career had come to an end.

With the confusion of entering society and the reluctance to leave the army, Luo Beichen found a food stall and got drunk.

It was also this hangover that brought Luo Beichen to this world that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

It was unfamiliar because this was a brand new world. Everything he was familiar with in the original world was not here.

As for why he was familiar with it…

"Beichen, I just got two bottles of ice water from the foreman. Hurry up and take a sip!" In the distance, a young man with a simple and honest appearance ran excitedly towards Luo Beichen with two bottles of water in his hands.

Looking at this familiar figure, Luo Beichen's eyes flashed with a complicated light.

"Erniu, slow down. What's the hurry?" Luo Beichen stopped what he was doing and smiled.

Luo Beichen was very familiar with the man in front of him. Not only in this world, but also in the original world.

This man's name was Li Erniu. If it was just a name, it might not be a big deal, but if he added the words special forces in front of it, many people would probably be familiar with him.

This was also the reason why Luo Beichen was familiar with this world. This was the world where he was a special forces soldier.

" Hehe, I saw that you've been working for such a long time and haven't even had a sip of water. You must be very thirsty. These two bottles of water were only given to me after I spent a long time with the foreman. Drink quickly."

As he spoke, Li Erniu stuffed two bottles of water into Luo Beichen's hands.

"You gave me both bottles. Aren't you going to drink them?" Luo Beichen looked at Li Erniu's empty hands and said.

"I've already drunk it. Besides, I'm fine now and I'm not thirsty." As he spoke, Li Erniu glanced at the two bottles of water in Luo Beichen's hands and couldn't help but swallow.

Luo Beichen was amused by Li Erniu's actions.

"Erniu, why have you learned to lie now? I heard that girls don't like boys who lie. Be careful that your Cuifen doesn't want you anymore." Luo Beichen teased him and threw a bottle of water to Li Erniu.

"No, no, I have a good relationship with Cuifen. It's impossible for her to not want me!" Hearing Luo Beichen's words, Li Erniu quickly waved his hand and retorted.

However, he also knew that Luo Beichen was joking with him.

"Beichen, I heard that you're a university student. Why did you come to the construction site?"

Li Erniu pulled Luo Beichen to a shady place and sat down. He wrung open the bottle of water and drank it happily for a while before asking curiously.

" What's wrong with being a college student? College students have to eat too. There aren't that many requirements at the construction site. There's still money to be earned. Where else can I go if I don't come here?" Luo Beichen said indifferently.

Speaking of this, Luo Beichen couldn't help but recall some memories of this body.

The original owner of this body was an orphan. When he was three years old, his parents unfortunately died in a car accident.

None of his few relatives were willing to adopt him, so Luo Beichen had no choice but to be thrown into the orphanage.

As the saying went, the power of parents 'sacrifice to the heavens was boundless. If this was a fantasy template, it would definitely activate the main character mode.

However, the original owner did not become the protagonist. His life could be summarized as mediocre.

His grades were mediocre, his life was mediocre, and his life was ordinary for eighteen years. The only things that he could bring out were his readers 'looks and this college admission letter.

Although he was admitted to university, there was another problem in front of him. Luo Beichen was already an adult, which meant that the welfare institute had no obligation to continue raising him.

In order to support himself, Luo Beichen had no choice but to work at the construction site.

In order to earn enough money, Luo Beichen worked day and night. In the end, he collapsed beside a pile of bricks. This also helped Luo Beichen in the other world to live on this body.

The memories kept playing in a loop, making Luo Beichen sigh. After all, the people from the two worlds had become one, and the memories were naturally inherited. He felt the same way.

"Hehe, you're different from us. You'll have to leave this place sooner or later, unlike us. We're destined to work for the rest of our lives." Hearing Luo Beichen's words, Li Erniu let out a simple and honest laugh.

Although Li Erniu was smiling, the loneliness in his eyes was very obvious.

Actually, Li Erniu was right. For someone like him who had no skills, no background, and no high culture, if nothing unexpected happened, his life was basically fixed.

However, Luo Beichen, who was familiar with the plot, knew that Li Erniu's future was bright. Of course, he could not tell Li Erniu about this.

After chatting with Li Erniu for a while, Li Erniu left. Recently, Li Erniu had been learning how to clean the exterior of the building from a master. Under normal circumstances, he was quite busy.

Although this job had a certain risk, the money was high, and there were many people who wanted to do it. Li Erniu also gave a lot of local specialties to get it.

Soon, the day passed by. Luo Beichen ate something casually and dragged his tired body back to the dormitory.

This body had lived in a welfare institute since young. Although it was not hungry, it did not eat well either. Therefore, its body was somewhat weak. It was already very tired after working for a day.

Lying on the stiff wooden bed, Luo Beichen slowly closed his eyes and rested.

After transmigrating to this world, Luo Beichen was still quite confused at first. However, as time passed, Luo Beichen slowly adapted. As for the future, Luo Beichen was not worried.

With the resources from the other world, Luo Beichen believed that he could do whatever he wanted for the rest of his life.

The reason why he was still at the construction site was only to accumulate some start-up funds.

However, although he had already gotten over it, Luo Beichen was still very confused about why he had transmigrated to this world.

However, he probably wouldn't be able to understand these things that were beyond his understanding. Therefore, after a period of time, Luo Beichen simply resigned himself to his fate.

His current thoughts were very simple. He wanted to leave this place as soon as he had accumulated enough funds. Then, he would find some projects that did not exist in this world to accumulate wealth, get married, and have children.

It was a very common idea, but it was a very realistic idea for Luo Beichen, who had lived two lives.

Luo Beichen quickly fell asleep. When he woke up, it would be a new day.
