Shipping the Couple in the Fake Heir's Asura Showdown [Reborn]

Growing up, He Chen was the clever young master of the He family, doted on by everyone.

At twenty-four, He Chen took the He family's century-old pharmaceutical company public, and it was poised to become an industry leader.

Then, on his birthday, the truth came out: he was the fake young master, switched at birth.

The parents who had once been his family were now strangers, seeing him as a thorn in the He family's side.

The employees who had once looked up to him now all turned up their noses at him.

Even his indecisive older brother became an outstanding successor overnight.

He Chen had apparently never done a single thing for the He company or the He family.

His accounts were frozen.

His room was sealed off.

His car was destroyed.

Even the one life that belonged to He Chen was worth less than the life of the He family's watchdog.

His grandfather, who had doted on him for all those years, added peanut oil, which He Chen was severely allergic to, to the dinner he served him before sending him away. Then he wanted to go swimming with him.

Just as everyone wished, He Chen had a severe allergic reaction and drowned.

He Chen was lying in his family's garden when someone forced his eyelids open several times.

"Can you see me?"

Yes. He looked familiar.

Such a handsome face, with strong features and deep-set eyes. He looked healthy and full of sunshine, unlike He Chen, and wore white... Was he an angel from heaven, come to take him away?

"Can you hear me?"

Yes. He seemed to have heard that voice before.

So clear and pleasant. It kept calling him by a name he never wanted to hear again.

He Chen closed his eyes. He no longer wanted to struggle. This man was Yu Qingshuo, his grandfather's personal doctor, and the real young master of the He family.

A pair of strong, well-defined hands held him tightly, keeping him warm and staying with him to the end of his life. Unfortunately, He Chen never woke up again...

He couldn't accept it.

At last, He Chen forced his eyes open.

His vision was filled with a worried family. "Come quickly, Chenchen is awake!"

He had been reborn at seventeen, just after being rushed to the hospital for secretly eating peanuts and having an allergic reaction.

That night, his uncle invited an orphan with excellent grades and character, Yu Qingshuo, to come tutor him.

He Chen smiled at his tearful family. "Good. You're all still here!"

Bonus scene:

He Chen rested his head on the desk and yawned again. "This is so hard to memorize. Read it one more time."

"All right." Yu Qingshuo recited it again in his clear, cool voice.

"The Shu Road is so hard to travel. Read it just one more time." He Chen licked his little pointed canine and gazed at Yu Qingshuo, his eyes curving into crescents.

"Sure." Yu Qingshuo's voice was a little hoarse. He tapped the book with his index finger. "Look here."

He Chen obediently lowered his eyes, his lashes fluttering as he stared at that familiar, slender finger.
