Reborn Billionaire: Turning Breakup Money into a Fortune - Chapter 3: Roommate

After entering the dormitory, Lu Yang saw a tall, dark-skinned, and muscular man. He excitedly walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

This tall, dark-skinned, and strong man was named Xu Chu, and he was the second oldest in the dormitory.

People are used to calling him the second oldest.

It’s strange, even though Lu Yang and his dorm room were arranged by age.

But almost no one calls him that except for Xu Chu, whom everyone habitually calls the second brother.

As for the reason, those who know, know.

“What do you mean ‘long time’? Haven’t I been here the whole time?”

“You, on the other hand, are a rare guest!”

Xu Chu, who was playing a game, turned his head and glanced at Lu Yang before speaking.

Lu Yang and Su Shanshan are currently in the throes of a passionate romance, eating out almost every day.

In just two months, Lu Yang spent tens of thousands of yuan, truly spending money like water.

Xu Chu was Lu Yang’s best friend among his university classmates, and also the one who was most wronged by Lu Yang in his past life.

When Lu Yang was raising money to buy a house, Xu Chu advised him not to use such a large amount of leverage, as the risk was too great.

But at that time, Lu Yang was only thinking about making a name for himself and getting rich, so he naturally ignored Xu Chu.

Of course, Xu Chu did not lend money to Lu Yang.

After Lu Yang had no choice but to sell his house at a loss to pay off his debts, he not only owed money to his relatives and friends, but also owed money on his credit card.

At this point, Lu Yang was completely broke and had no money left.

But it was at this moment that Xu Chu contacted Lu Yang and transferred 400,000 yuan into Lu Yang’s bank account.

They helped Lu Yang pay off his debts.

It’s worth noting that Xu Chu’s family background is even worse than Lu Yang’s. Although his job is good, his salary isn’t high.

This 400,000 yuan was almost all of Xu Chu’s savings after graduation.

This is the money Xu Chu used to buy a house.

At that time, Lu Yang was also in dire straits. He worked while paying off his debts, and it took him three or four years to finally pay off the money he owed Xu Chu.

At that time, housing prices had more than doubled compared to when Xu Chu lent Lu Yang the money.

The money that could have been used to make a down payment on a larger house is now not even enough to make a down payment on a small house.

Even so, Xu Chu never complained about Lu Yang.

He simply said that lending money to Lu Yang was his own decision and had nothing to do with Lu Yang.

Lu Yang didn’t lie to him.

“Good brother, I’ll make sure you can live in a big house sooner than expected in this lifetime.”

Lu Yang silently made up his mind.

Now that he has a second chance at life, he not only wants to change his own destiny, but also to help the relatives and friends who helped him in his previous life.

Lu Yang climbed into his bed, and just as he lay down, a gasp rang out in the dormitory.

“Yangzi, you broke up with Susan?”

The speaker was Chen Yibo, from Shanxi Province. It is said that his family owns a small coal mine, and he has a very big brother-like demeanor.

In addition, he was the oldest among Lu Yang and his group, and always regarded himself as the eldest brother in the dormitory.

In his previous life, Lu Yang was riding high at this time, feeling incredibly arrogant.

She couldn’t stand many of Chen Yibo’s actions, so their relationship was very bad.

Looking back now, aside from his tendency to boast, Chen Yibo didn’t seem to have any other bad qualities.

Whenever something good happens, he always thinks of his roommates first.

Lu Yang was too tactless back then, often putting Chen Yibo in an awkward position.

“Really?”

Qin Fei, who had been reading a book, couldn’t help but look at Lu Yang after hearing Chen Yibo’s words.

Even Xu Chu, who was playing a game nearby, couldn’t help but turn around and focus his gaze on Lu Yang.

May the God of Melons bless us; there’s going to be a good show today.

“I saw this on the school forum, is it true or not?”

Chen Yibo turned to Lu Yang beside him and asked.

“It’s true, I just felt that Susan and I weren’t a good match, so I decided to break up.”

Seeing everyone’s eager expressions, Lu Yang knew that if he didn’t explain the situation clearly, he would be driven crazy by their annoyance.

Upon hearing Lu Yang’s words, the group of people in the dormitory looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Susan and the others had all met her; in terms of looks alone, Susan was already one of the top students at Zhonghai University.

In addition, Susan’s family background made her the object of many male suitors in college.

“Yangzi, are you crazy?”

Upon hearing Lu Yang’s words, Chen Yibo couldn’t help but speak up.

After all, in their view, if Lu Yang hadn’t risked his life to save Susan, it would have been a huge loss.

How could Lu Yang possibly win over Susan? And now, Lu Yang himself has broken up with Susan.

“If you’re not compatible, there’s no need to force yourselves to be together; otherwise, it won’t be good for either of you.”

Lu Yang said.

“Yangzi, you really have a very open mind when it comes to thinking about this.”

Chen Yibo seemed about to say something to persuade Lu Yang, but in the end he didn’t say anything.

Lying in bed, Lu Yang thought about the things he needed to do recently.

His primary concern should be seizing every opportunity to increase the amount of money he has.

As for other things, they can be put on hold for now.

······

Susan’s house.

Susan’s family, who have been wealthy for many years, lives in one of the most popular villa areas in China Overseas, a favorite among China Overseas’ richest residents.

This year, the price of houses in this villa area has reached 60,000 to 70,000 yuan per square meter.

A single house costs tens of millions, which shows the Su family’s strength.

Susan’s mother, who had just complained about Lu Yang to a few of her close girlfriends, returned home.

Just by looking at the nanny’s face, Su’s mother knew that something must have happened at home.

“I saw the young lady come back crying, why don’t you go up and see her?”

The nanny spoke cautiously.

“Okay, I understand. I’ll go take a look.”

Su’s mother spoke up.

“Lu Yang should have already broken up with Shan Shan. It seems that this guy is a man of his word.”

Su’s mother thought to herself.

A few million isn’t a lot of money for her, but if Lu Yang takes the money and still dares to pester Shan Shan, then things won’t look good.

After all, Lu Yang had saved Susan, and she didn’t want things to get too ugly.

It’s better for everyone if we separate like this.

“Shanshan, Shanshan.”

“Mom is back.”

Su’s mother walked to Susan’s door and knocked.

“mom.”

Susan opened the door and rushed into her mother’s arms.

Looking at Shan Shan with tears streaming down her face, Su’s mother actually began to resent Lu Yang in her heart.

If you’re going to break up, fine, but why did you make my Shanshan cry?

“What’s wrong, Shanshan? Who made you angry?”

Su’s mother gently patted Susan’s back as she spoke softly.

“Lu Yang wants to break up with me!”

Susan sobbed as she spoke bitterly.

Actually, for Susan, breaking up wasn’t something that was hard to accept.

For her, the fact that Lu Yang was the one who initiated the breakup was what hurt her the most.

For a young lady like Susan, it’s perfectly reasonable for me to look down on you.

If you look down on me, then you are utterly unforgivable.
