Oh, I don't want to be a wealthy lady anymore, it's too tiring.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, when I make money in the future, I'll buy you a big house first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't want a big house.

Or had he time-traveled back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, no...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan suddenly realized, if he had time-traveled back, what would happen to Su Ruochu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! I have to go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan suddenly realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The experiences of his previous life had become the past. The past cannot be undone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he needed to do was to cherish the present person, otherwise, wouldn't this be the second time he had failed Su Ruochu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Chen Fan desperately told himself that all of this was an illusion, and he had to wake up immediately, had to \"live\" again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, no matter what he tried, he could not wake up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there had been someone in the living room at this moment, they would have noticed that Chen Fan was drenched in sweat, his face deathly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyelids kept twitching, as if he was trapped in some nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that his whole body had lost sensation, and his brain could no longer control his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried desperately, but to no avail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have to go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I must go back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was truly panicked and afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he even rushed out to the balcony, staring down, thinking that if he jumped from here, the shock to his nerves might allow him to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Chen Fan was about to jump, a familiar ringtone sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ringtone resounded in Chen Fan's mind without warning, causing him to spin around abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he was too familiar with this ringtone, the exclusive one Su Ruochu had set for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's Ruochu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan came to his senses in an instant and \"woke up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing at the phone on the coffee table, ringing and vibrating gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan quickly sat up from the sofa, only then noticing that his body was completely drenched in cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it was just a dream?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why had everything felt so real just now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan took a deep breath, reached for the phone, and glanced at the caller ID, thinking that if everything just now hadn't been a dream, then this call from Ruochu had once again saved his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After answering, Chen Fan tried to speak, but his voice sounded hoarse and unpleasant, as if he hadn't had a drink in over ten days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's wrong? Were you sleeping?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu's sweet voice came through the phone, causing Chen Fan's heartbeat to calm down slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a few gulps from the glass of water beside him, Chen Fan finally adjusted his mood and said with a smile, \"I just fell asleep on the sofa.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, you called because you're home?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah. I just got home, so I'm letting you know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled, \"When you got back, did your parents say anything to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My dad didn't say much, but my mom almost went crazy,\" Su Ruochu explained. \"I didn't want to lie, so I just told her directly that I went traveling with you. Then my mom freaked out. If it weren't for my dad holding her back, I think she would have hit me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm alone in the bedroom now. My mom told me to reflect on where I went wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled, \"It's all my fault. Next time, just let auntie call and scold me directly. I absolutely won't talk back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu on the other end of the phone laughed, \"You think she didn't scold you? My mom practically scolded you by name for an hour.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan laughed. \"Looks like auntie has quite an impression of me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren't you angry?\" Su Ruochu asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would I be angry? If this were my daughter going on a trip so far away with a boy, I'd want to break that stinky brat's legs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Put yourself in her shoes, I understand auntie's thinking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu smiled a little frustratedly, \"But... why won't my mom just accept you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it because you two have clashing auras and are naturally incompatible?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled bitterly and scratched his head, \"Don't people always say that a mother-in-law will warm up to her son-in-law the more she sees him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess the reason I'm not a son-in-law yet is, why don't we give them a surprise and get on the boat first before buying the ticket? Once the child is born, I bet your mom won't have any objections.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, keep dreaming!\" Su Ruochu let out an embarrassed tsk on the other end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, talking on the phone with Su Ruochu, hearing her voice in his ear, made all the horror and fatigue he had just experienced seem to dissipate instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan lay back on the sofa in a relaxed manner, occasionally saying a few words to tease the little girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially hearing Su Ruochu's embarrassed scolding on the other end of the phone, Chen Fan felt an immense sense of accomplishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, I felt so lonely in the house by myself after you left today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's no one to keep me company...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu: \"What can we do? Why don't I try to call you an extra time every day, and we can text each other anytime too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan grinned mischievously, \"If you call me husband, I won't be afraid anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... I don't want to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, say it, or else I'll have insomnia tonight and can only sleep hugging the pillow you slept on because it has your scent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh, Chen Fan, you're so shameless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hus...band.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear you, you were too quiet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh gosh, my parents are in the next room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Husband... good night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Su Ruochu hurriedly hung up in embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan, on the other hand, excitedly gripped the phone and waved it forcefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, he was struck by an intense impulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"unconsciousness\" he had just experienced was like being reborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this life, Chen Fan had always been striving, struggling to give Su Ruochu the very best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was proceeding in an orderly, methodical fashion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, Chen Fan suddenly wanted to be willful, just once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To hell with the plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To hell with waiting until after graduation to marry Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I want to see Ruochu now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once this thought flashed through his mind, Chen Fan's resolve could not be extinguished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't let Ruochu bear the burden alone, caught in a difficult position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan decided to take on the responsibility a man should have.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to act on impulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomorrow, he would return to Luocheng and propose marriage to Su Ruochu's family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would meet her parents properly, explain their relationship to them.\u003C\u002Fp>",1432,"2026-06-05T15:06:40.702Z",1,"novelbin.me","69f2e8495b2ad283071999fac7df65912708222753aa999de06dff6b9094eea6","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-376","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-316",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
