Being Reborn And Starting Off By Not Being A Simp Chapter 14

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Xiao Wen went to work, Liu Qing finally lay down on the bed to sleep.

Due to his leg injury, it was inconvenient for him to go out even if he wanted. Other places aside, going up and down the stairs would torture him to death.

All he could do was to lie in bed and sleep.

Before going to bed, he checked his phone and saw a message from the team leader in the group chat. The person who hit him had been caught. It was not the boy's father, but it was someone related to the boy's father.

It was not a small thing to injure someone and also purposely cover the license plate of the getaway car at the scene. There would likely be a jail sentence.

Liu Qing was a little surprised. He did not expect that the case would be solved.

He felt good knowing that the perpetrator was caught.

The property management company had already promised to help him with the lawsuit to ask for civil compensation. They would make the perpetrator pay for the medical fees and compensation for loss of work. Otherwise, the property management company would have to bear all the costs.

His leg injury tormented him quite a fair bit. He only managed to fall asleep towards the middle of the night.

When he woke up the next day, he could sense a person lying next to him. There was even a lock of hair spread across his face.

At first, out of habit, he thought that the person was Huo Zhenzhen, so he reached out to grab her.

Then he felt that the size was different.

Then he remembered that Huo Zhenzhen had already left him.

Instantly wide awake, he opened his eyes to find Xiao Wen sleeping beside him.

And his hand…

He was so startled that he quickly released his grip and sat up in bed.

Yesterday, he had gone out of his way not to sleep in the same bed as this young girl. However, he did not expect the girl to climb into bed while he was asleep.

Although they were both dressed and he had done nothing, he still felt tainted.

Liu Qing moved a little too much when he sat up in bed and woke Xiao Wen up. She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at him as she spoke.

“I brought you breakfast. It's on the dining table outside. Help yourself when you're hungry. You were asleep when I arrived, so I didn't wake you. Don't wake me up later either. I'm so sleepy.”

Then she closed her eyes again.

Liu Qing wanted to say something, but when he thought about how the young lady had dragged her own tired body over to take care of him after finishing her night shift, he concluded that it was not a heinous crime for her to lie down on the bed and sleep. It was not nice for him to say anything.

Just let her go back to sleep.

With a sigh, he climbed out of bed with great effort and headed for the toilet first.

Fortunately, the toilet was installed with a sitting toilet bowl. Otherwise, he would have needed help to go to the toilet as well.

Xiao Wen had brought him three meat buns and a cup of soy milk for breakfast. It probably cost about six dollars.

After cohabiting with Huo Zhenzhen, Liu Qing had changed his eating habits a lot. The biggest change was having only two meals a day compared with three meals a day previously.

He skipped breakfast when he was on the day shift and he skipped lunch when he was on the night shift.

There was no other reason except that the cost of breakfast was getting higher, and his finances were getting tight. He could only save money this way.

After living like this for a few years, his blood sugar had become a little low.

Now that he had separated from Huo Zhenzhen, he could spend his own money any way he wanted. There was no need to treat himself harshly just to save money.

Xiao Wen had paid for his breakfast and he did not want to owe her a favor. While eating, he sent her a six-dollar red packet with the words “breakfast money” indicated in the remarks line.

After eating, he hesitated for a moment. Should he play with his phone in the living room or back in bed?

It did not take him long to make up his mind. He had already slept in the same bed with the young girl. No matter how he viewed the situation, he was already tainted so he thought that there was no need to feel burdened by it.

So he returned to the bedroom, pushed the sleeping Xiao Wen towards the inner side and got into bed himself.

With his leg in that condition, there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to. Besides, he really had no desire to do anything.

As it turned out, Xiao Wen just wanted to stay in an air-conditioned room for free and did not seem to want to have anything to do with him.

At lunchtime, Xiao Wen's alarm went off. Reluctantly, she got out of bed, rubbed her eyes and went out to get him food without even combing her hair.

She was getting 50 dollars a day for this duty, so she must do her job.

After lunch, Liu Qing did not continue to be modest. He lay on the bed and prepared to take an afternoon nap. Xiao Wen did not bother about propriety either and simply lay down beside him.

The double bed was big enough for a 10 to 20 centimeters gap between them.

However, after both of them fell asleep, this distance inexplicably disappeared.

When he woke up, Liu Qing found Xiao Wen with one leg around his waist and one arm around his neck.

And his hand was not in any decent place as well.

He quickly pulled his hand away and then moved her arm and leg away from his body.

This was all due to their unconscious behavior in their sleep. No one could control their behavior after going to sleep.

However, the way that things were progressing made him feel that the situation was getting a little dangerous.

He really did not want to sleep with this girl.

This girl was not his type.

Most importantly, it was still that same thought of his—as a future rich second generation, he felt that he deserved better.

In the days that followed, the two of them lived together like that.

It looked like something was going between them, but in actual fact, nothing happened.

Liu Qing had no such inclination.

Xiao Wen was exhausted from working the night shift. When she came back from work, all she wanted to do was sleep. She had no such inclination too.

Not minding the situation being like that did not mean that he wanted it to be like that.

Liu Qing would not want a wanton woman, but if the person behaving in a wanton manner with him was not his woman, he would not dislike her.

Although the two of them often bickered, the atmosphere was actually quite harmonious.

Liu Qing felt that they had quite a good arrangement.

With someone helping him, it was easier to handle his daily living.

The day after Liu Qing was discharged from the hospital, the family of the guy who hit Liu Qing went to the property management company to negotiate. They indicated that they wanted to settle the matter privately and they were willing to pay for Liu Qing's medical expenses and give him an additional 10,000 dollars.

Liu Qing was only slightly injured, so this was not considered a criminal case. It could only be considered a public security case. If it was settled privately, the perpetrator would not even be detained.

However, Liu Qing did not agree. He told them that they not only needed to bear the cost of the medical fees and compensation for loss of work, the option of detention for the perpetrator must be maintained.

Later on, the family raised the additional compensation quantum to 15,000 dollars, but Liu Qing still did not agree to it.

In a month or so, he would become a rich second generation. An amount of 15,000 dollars did not mean much to him.

The person even broke his leg, so a jail sentence was a must.

The person also had to compensate for whatever he should compensate..

If the person was not willing to compensate, then Liu Qing would sue him.

Even if Liu Qing could not afford a lawsuit now, he would still sue when he became a rich second generation in the future.

Moreover, the property management company had already informed him that the company would support him if he wanted to file a lawsuit.

Liu Qing's attitude was so firm that the family had no choice but to give up on the negotiation.

The person who hit him was eventually taken into custody.

This was a piece of news that made Liu Qing very happy.
