It Seems I’m Not The Only One Who Reincarnated

As the time approached five o’clock, the evening rush hour had begun.

The number of passengers on the bus increased, turning it into a crowded sardine can.

Shi Hai spread his arms wide, forcing his body to shield the two girls, Jian Sichun and Zhu Lingjie, to prevent them from being jostled.

A few lecherous men noticed such beautiful girls on the bus and tried to seize the opportunity to grope them.

However, Shi Hai blocked them with his body and gave them a murderous glare that sent them scurrying away.

Indeed, taking the bus during rush hour is inconvenient… and one must always guard against perverts.

Fortunately, this was the last bus they needed to take.

After getting off, it was only a few hundred meters to North High.

While on the bus, Jian Sichun and Zhu Lingjie behaved themselves admirably.

The two were already hugging each other face-to-face, ensuring that they didn’t burden Shi Hai too much by only occupying the space meant for one person.

After protecting the two girls, once they got off the bus, Shi Hai rubbed his sore shoulders and said:

“It seems I need to find some time to enroll in a driving school and learn how to drive…”

Many people get their driver’s licenses during university, even if it’s just to earn some extra credits.

But Shi Hai had never been interested in driving.

For extracurricular credits, he had volunteered at the local football field last year, passed the CET-4 English test and the Level 2 Computer exam, which was almost enough.

If it were just him alone, squeezing onto buses and subways wouldn’t be a big deal…

But lately, these two beauties had been tagging along with him every day… he couldn’t let them suffer like this alone, could he?

Moreover, the most crucial part was that, to protect them from perverted hands, Shi Hai had to expend double the effort to ensure their safety zone.

This was the first time he had truly felt the pain of crowded public transport, like using his own body to block a floodgate.

Even if he bought an inexpensive car, getting stuck in traffic would still be better than enduring the hell of public transport crowds.

However, upon hearing this, Jian Sichun was quite surprised and asked:

“Are you going to get a driver’s license?”

“Hmm, I’ll look into it next week. The school should have classes where we can learn together.”

“You wouldn’t be getting one just for us, would you?”

Actually, there was no need to ask this.

Because Jian Sichun knew very well that Shi Hai had absolutely no interest in cars, which was different from most men.

Shi Hai didn’t understand car models or differences between them; he couldn’t even recognize brands.

He preferred riding bicycles over driving.

Later, it was Jian Sichun who went to get her driver’s license, and Shi Hai never learned to drive in the end.

But this time, Shi Hai was actually considering getting a driver’s license himself!

“Yeah, the rush hour on the subway and bus is just terrifying. Considering that my sister will have to squeeze onto buses after class too, it’s better to have a car for pickups, right?”

On the other side, Zhu Lingjie asked with slight concern:

“But even if you get a driver’s license, what if we don’t have a car…”

Like Jian Sichun, Zhu Lingjie was also well aware of Shi Hai’s family’s financial situation.

Shi Hai’s family wasn’t wealthy; they were a single-parent household.

Years ago, they had nearly exhausted their savings to treat Shi Hai’s ailing father.

Additionally, Liu Zhenshan, Shi Hai’s mother, was always soft-hearted and kind, but her modest salary barely sufficed.

However, because Liu Zhenshan made many friends and was willing to help others, there were many people willing to assist Shi Hai’s family.

It was still quite convenient when running errands.

Nevertheless, she couldn’t leave enough money for her son to buy a house, not even enough for a down payment, which was something Liu Zhenshan felt very guilty about.

That’s why she unconditionally welcomed Shi Hai to bring his girlfriends home.

Even if she had to move out herself, she wanted to make space for her children.

“Well… buying a cheap car should be sufficient.”

As a means of transportation, just something functional would do.

“If you tell my mom that it’s to help us and my sister get to and from school, she’ll 100% agree.”

Shi Hai knew that Liu Zhenshan had been secretly saving money to leave him some for marriage, though the amount wasn’t much—about a hundred thousand yuan.

That should be enough to buy a car.

But the two ‘family members’ beside him didn’t agree.

“No way! How can we let mom pay for it!”

“That’s right. If you’re buying a car just for our use, we should at least contribute something.”

In recent days, Jian Sichun had picked up drawing again.

She had regained some of her skills.

With her artistry, if she took on some freelance work, she could earn a substantial amount of money in a short time with enough effort.

Additionally, she was working hard to recall popular content from before to prepare for becoming an online content creator in the future.

Although Jian Sichun was naive, she wasn’t stupid.

She actually listened to what Shi Hai said.

The advantage of being reborn was that she could accumulate more wealth faster than in her past life.

In her previous life, she and Shi Hai had been saving money just to buy a house.

If she could have amassed enough money to buy a house earlier, maybe she and Shi Hai would have been married by now…

So! Although money isn’t everything, being without money is impossible!

Considering future matters, Jian Sichun decided to start making money diligently from now on.

Even if she couldn’t become a ‘big wealthy woman’ like Tian Shui, at least she wanted to become a ‘little rich woman’ who could enjoy life and support Shi Hai!

As for Zhu Lingjie, in her past life, she and Shi Hai worked together at Tianshi.

A few years later, Tianshi had grown into a large conglomerate.
