Chapter 4: Hello, Lin Wanjun
In his memory, Li Mengyun could be said to have smooth sailing for the next twenty years.
However, Lin Wanjun would lose her life two years later.
Li Wanjun's family background was not good; they were from the countryside.
She had a younger sister and a younger brother, making her the eldest child in the family.
Her mother managed the household chores while her father worked outside.
Originally, although the family worked hard, they could still live a stable life.
But alas, fate is cruel.
Lin Wanjun's father, who was working in another city, fell from a height due to an operational error and broke his leg.
Since he was a temporary worker, the compensation was minimal, only tens of thousands of yuan.
Calculating the timing, her father must have already been injured and returned home.
To treat her father, all the family savings were used up, and every penny they could borrow had been borrowed.
But the money was still insufficient.
To make matters worse, Lin Wanjuns Mother also fell ill and required surgery, costing over a hundred thousand yuan.
But the family's money had long been spent, leaving them with no funds for the operation.
It was at this moment that an old bachelor from the neighboring village offered a bride price of 300,000 yuan to marry Lin Wanjun.
With this money, not only could her father's leg be treated, but her mother could also be saved, and the family's life could be improved.
Without this money, Lin Wanjun's father would be permanently lame, and her mother would die from illness.
Although Lin Wanjun appeared somewhat aloof, she was a filial daughter.
For the sake of her father, her mother, and the entire family, she agreed to marry.
Lin Wanjun did not take the college entrance exam; she got married immediately after high school graduation.
But Lin Wanjun's suffering began at this very time.
It turned out that the man Lin Wanjun married was a pervert who had a physical disability and could not consummate the marriage.
But he was rich, so he insisted on marrying a beautiful woman as his wife.
This way, outsiders wouldn't know about his inadequacy.
Not only that, but he also planned to have his cousin sleep with Lin Wanjun, so that when Lin Wanjun became pregnant, the child born would be considered his.
It was, without a doubt, a highly twisted act.
Lin Wanjun resisted fiercely and threatened to call the police.
Lin Wanzhong told the man that if they dared to use force, she would call the police, and they would all go to jail.
The man's cousin got scared and backed off.
Lin Wanjun's actions, however, enraged her husband, who began beating and abusing Lin Wanjun daily. In just two years, Lin Wanjun was beaten to death.
Lin Wanjun didn't dare divorce or run away because the man was a pervert, and he had threatened her.
If Lin Wanjun dared to escape, he would kill her entire family.
Lin Wanjun had no choice but to endure it alone.
She was truly enduring, but he never expected her to be beaten to death in the end.
Only after Lin Wanjun died did the case become public, and the man was later executed by firing squad.
Everything about Lin Wanjun was only learned by Chen Pingan from his family after he graduated from university and returned home.
Such a beautiful girl, such a good Lin Wanjun, died so tragically.
Before she died, she had to suffer so much grievance and so many beatings.
When Chen Pingan heard the news back then, he couldn't help but cry until his eyes were red.
And now, the Lin Wanjun who had died was walking toward Chen Pingan, alive and wearing a school uniform.
"Lin Wanjun!"
Chen Pingan suddenly called out.
"Is something wrong?" Lin Wanjun looked at Chen Pingan in surprise.
A hint of confusion was in Lin Wanjun's eyes.
She knew Chen Pingan; he had pursued her in the first year of high school, but after being rejected, he hadn't bothered her again.
She didn't know why Chen Pingan was greeting her again today.
"Nothing, I just wanted to say hello to you."
"Hello, Lin Wanjun."
Chen Pingan waved at Lin Wanjun, his face sporting a simple, foolish grin.
"Are you crazy?" Lin Wanjun raised an eyebrow and said coldly.
"Move aside."
Lin Wanjun pushed Chen Pingan away and walked off.
Truly worthy of being called an Ice Beauty; she certainly has character.
It's just a shame that she died so miserably and lived such a hard life in the previous lifetime.
Chen Pingan was not angry at all.
Even though Lin Wanjun called him crazy, Chen Pingan still wore a satisfied, foolish grin.
It's truly wonderful to be back at this time.
All the regrets of the past can be rectified.
Lin Wanjun's fate can also be changed.
Chen Pingan hadn't intended to necessarily win Lin Wanjun's heart, but he had to at least save her life.
He absolutely couldn't let Lin Wanjun be married off to that old bachelor again.
However, Chen Pingan didn't know the specific details about the man, only that he was an old bachelor, likely around forty years old.
As for the man's name or where he lived, Chen Pingan had no idea.
Therefore, Chen Pingan could only passively wait for this man to appear.
Furthermore, he couldn't explain this situation to Lin Wanjun.
After all, it was unexplainable.
He couldn't exactly say that he came from the future and tell Lin Wanjun never to marry, or she would be abused to death.
If Chen Pingan said such nonsense, Lin Wanjun would probably curse him to death.
But Chen Pingan now had the confidence to ensure Lin Wanjun's safety.
Because Chen Pingan had already mastered the max-level Longevity Art.
He was now the ceiling of combat power among humans.
As long as that man dared to show up, he was dead.
In the previous life, Chen Pingan didn't have the chance to kill him, but this life, he absolutely had to seize the opportunity and finish him off.
The class bell rang.
Chen Pingan froze, feeling somewhat unaccustomed.
Because his Soul was that of an uncle in his forties, yet now he had to go back to high school.
He had to adapt whether he liked it or not, as he was now a third-year high school student.
The college entrance exam was only about two months away.
He just had to grit his teeth and get through it.
Thinking of the college entrance exam, Chen Pingan's face darkened.
How could he possibly take the college entrance exam?
He had forgotten all the high school knowledge points.
If he took the exam again now, he probably couldn't even get into a diploma mill.
"I'm doomed, what am I going to do about the college entrance exam?" Chen Pingan was distressed.
However, the college entrance exam was still two months away; another matter was even more troublesome.
He couldn't remember where his seat was.
He had found the classroom, but not the seat, because seating rotated weekly.
"Old Chen, hurry up and come over, the teacher is coming soon."
Just then, a male Classmate waved at Chen Pingan and called him over.
Chen Pingan's memory was instantly activated.
Zhang Yong, his desk mate in the third year of high school.
Also Chen Pingan's childhood friend.
The two were neighbors who grew up together, and they were also Classmates throughout elementary, middle, and high school.
They were still Classmates in the same high school class, so their relationship was excellent.
It was just that this guy's later life was also quite tragic.
Primarily, the wife Zhang Yong married was terrible; she wasn't particularly beautiful, but she was flirtatious and had Zhang Yong completely infatuated.
Moreover, her character was poor. Taking advantage of Zhang Yong's frequent business trips, she started having an affair with another man.
Later, Zhang Yong discovered the affair and, in a fit of rage, severely injured the adulterer.
Zhang Yong was arrested and sentenced to five years in prison. His wife divorced him, the house was sold, and he was left with a daughter who was just over a year old.
By the time Zhang Yong was released and returned home, his daughter was over six years old.
His daughter had stayed with Zhang Yong's parents and was raised by them.
Having a daughter was originally a source of comfort, but a few years later, the daughter was diagnosed with leukemia.
Zhang Yong bankrupted himself treating the child's illness. Zhang Yong even underwent a bone marrow match with the child, but the doctor revealed that the child's blood type didn't match Zhang Yong's.
A DNA test confirmed that the child was not Zhang Yong's.
Things reaching this point were truly despair-inducing.
But Zhang Yong was a true man; even knowing the child wasn't his, he still paid for the child's treatment.
Unfortunately, the child had a poor fate and ultimately could not be saved.
Afterward, Zhang Yong became disheartened and never married again in this lifetime.
Zhang Yong's own life was difficult, but he was truly loyal to Chen Pingan.
When Chen Pingan was at his lowest, Zhang Yong even transferred 10,000 yuan to him.
The money wasn't much, but the sentiment was profound.
It was something Chen Pingan would remember for a lifetime.
However, in the previous life, he never got the chance to repay that 10,000 yuan; Zhang Yong died in a car accident in 2022.
The loyalty he couldn't repay in the previous life must be fully repaid in this one.
Chen Pingan didn't plan to simply repay Zhang Yong 10,000 yuan.
Instead, he planned to give Zhang Yong a lifetime of wealth and prosperity.
Of course, the most important thing was absolutely not to let Zhang Yong marry tha
t trashy woman again.
