After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497: Chapter 497 Epilogue (2) Fu Chen

Lu Sheng remembers that her words back then were also unkind.

[Although I don’t know what you’re trying to express, what you said just now really doesn’t sound like something someone with nine years of compulsory education would say.]

[Does being short, fat, ugly, or from a poor family prove that a person is inferior? Is a person’s goodness or badness determined by these external things?]

[The most superficial kind of liking and attraction might come from looks or family background. But truly appreciating, agreeing with someone, and becoming friends with them must be based on shared values and consistent character.]

[So yes, you’re right when you said I looked down on you and have been cold and indifferent. That is indeed the case.]

[Because you’re arrogant, conceited, narcissistic, and complacent. And now you’ve done something so despicable and shameless as cheating to win and slandering others. There’s nothing about you that I can appreciate.]

Thinking back now, those words were indeed quite harsh.

So Lu Sheng thought that when Fu Chen saw her, he would jump up and curse at her or even want to hit her.

But unexpectedly, Fu Chen merely looked at her directly, with his eyes reddening without warning, and his voice slightly hoarse: "...I’m sorry, Lu Sheng."

Lu Sheng never expected that such an arrogant young master like Fu Chen would one day stand by the roadside with reddened eyes and apologize to her.

"These past few months, I’ve been thinking about what you said to me that day in the classroom."

"Arrogant, conceited, narcissistic... In Jiang City, I was surrounded by people flattering me, and I thought everything I did was right. But my time alone in the countryside taught me a lot."

"Without money and family background, I’m nothing. With such a character, no one would want to be close to me or be my friend. Let alone any girl would genuinely like me."

"You were right. Without my family’s background to flaunt, my values and character don’t match yours. But now I realize my mistakes and I’m making changes."

Fu Chen looked up, "I haven’t taken a single penny from Grandpa anymore. All my living expenses in the countryside come from waiting tables in a restaurant."

"This time, I only wanted to see my grandfather from a distance. I’m the only one he has now, yet I’ve let him down so badly. That’s my fault."

"Rest assured, before I completely change and retake my college entrance exams, I won’t meet Grandpa."

Lu Sheng could see that Fu Chen had truly changed a lot, and he was speaking from the heart.

No more...

I’ll never meet another girl as wonderful as you again.

He was given such an unparalleled opportunity from the beginning, with an engagement with the girl right in front of him, yet he didn’t cherish it. Who could he blame but himself?

Lu Sheng toasted Old Mr. Fu with a glass of wine and casually asked, "Grandpa, did Fu Chen not come home at all during the summer holiday?"

Old Mr. Fu sighed when he heard Fu Chen’s name and said, "Shengsheng, for you to not hold any grudges after what Chenchen did to you, and still inquire about his well-being, you’re truly a kind child."

"To be honest, last month Chenchen called me. From his tone, I could tell he had indeed changed a lot, becoming much more mature and stable. I think my harsh decision back then was the right one."

"Thanks to you helping me nourish my health, I’m still strong and can manage the company for many years. So before Chenchen takes over the company, let’s let him face some hardships and genuinely learn."

"Yes," Lu Sheng nodded, recalling Fu Chen’s determined expression that day under the sun, she said lightly, "I hope he continues to get better."
