2022: I Won’t Be Anyone’s Fool, and Now the Campus Belle Is Panicking

Chen Xiao's previous life was short.

At twenty-two, before he had even graduated from college, he got married because his girlfriend was pregnant.

At twenty-three, he listened to his wife, Li Mengqi. To give their child a brighter future, he mortgaged the family's machinery factory and opened a tile factory during the last boom in the housing market.

At twenty-five, the factory went bankrupt with twenty million yuan in debt. Chen Xiao became a deadbeat debtor, only to discover that Li Mengqi and her family had already drained the entire business.

For the sake of his child, Chen Xiao swallowed all the losses and grievances, sold everything he could, and paid off the debts.

To help Chen Xiao earn money to repay them, his father took a long-haul trucking job, while his mother worked in the countryside.

At twenty-six, Chen Xiao's mother went up the mountain to gather tea seeds to supplement the family income. She fell and never woke up.

When Chen Xiao's father heard the news, the shock triggered a cerebral hemorrhage, and he died soon after.

In a single night, Chen Xiao lost both his parents.

At twenty-seven, Chen Xiao found old videos of Li Mengqi and her lover on her phone. Enraged, he went to confront them, only for Li Mengqi's younger brother and her lover to beat him until his head was covered in blood.

As he lay dying, Chen Xiao finally learned that the child he had lovingly cared for all these years was not his at all. The child was Li Mengqi and her lover's.

Worse still, that first night between Chen Xiao and Li Mengqi had been a trap designed by her and her lover. They had never actually been together.

They had even made a fool of Chen Xiao, having him play the role of an impotent husband to add another thrilling touch to their affair.

Looking back on it all, Chen Xiao felt heartbroken and utterly humiliated!

Fortunately, Heaven gave him another chance...
