Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Struggle for Life

Shen Ci’s grades were good, but that didn’t mean he knew how to tutor others. Meng Chuyue had to teach him her previous life’s experience so that he could become a competent tutor for a science cram school, garnering a vast network of influential family heirs.

Second was to organize preliminary study materials for the cram school’s students.

Third was to write a distinctive recruitment brochure.

Shen Ci also seemed very busy, occasionally stopping by only after a phone call and then hurrying through a meal before leaving.

Nevertheless, Meng Chuyue handed him the tutoring textbooks as soon as they were ready.

After he heard about her plans, he nodded without any objections, "Hmm, I’ll take them and have a good look. Luckily, I won’t be as busy after the college entrance examination results come out, and I’ll have time to start the cram school with you."

"Alright, come back for meals often, and if you don’t have the time, you can call me to deliver them to you."

"Okay."

Although Shen Ci had agreed, several days passed without him calling Meng Chuyue to bring over meals, and he himself only came to eat about once every three days, noticeably thinner. Even though he looked better, Meng Chuyue couldn’t help feeling distressed.

After some thought, she made some snacks and cookies to keep in her space. When Shen Ci came over for a meal next time, she handed them to him in a large cookie box decorated with a pattern of green leaves and blossoms, "I made some snacks today and was going to call you to come and pick them up, but coincidentally you’ve come by yourself. Take them quickly."

Shen Ci opened one of the containers, took out a small egg cake to eat, and nodded with a smile, "Hmm, this should last me for seven days. After seven days, I won’t be as busy."

He didn’t specify what he was busy with, and Meng Chuyue didn’t ask. When he was leaving, she gave him a bag of space fruit.

Shen Ci accepted everything without a word of thanks, lightly patted her head, and left with an indifferent expression.

Watching his arrogant and heartless demeanor, Meng Chuyue felt desolate.

She knew that what he was desperately fighting for was not money, but life itself.

Indeed, Shen Ci was fighting for his life.

Just a few days ago, he was caught by Chen Ling and was taken to Chen Kang.

However, with his hands tied, he cleverly handed a voice recorder to Chen Kang.

The voice recorder held Chen Ling’s persuasive words urging him to compromise and also mentioned his previous escape.

After Chen Kang listened, Shen Ci sneered, "I have a copy of last time’s recording at my own home, and several friends have it too. If anything happens to me, your secret won’t be safe."

Chen Kang wasn’t scared; he chuckled, "Is that so? But if you become one of ours, you won’t report me because then we will be in the same boat."

Shen Ci smiled faintly, "Do you know why the Shen Wenhao brothers hate me so much? It’s because when I was very young, they told me that as long as I obediently listened to them, they were willing to keep me like a dog. I refused, and that’s why they have always hurt me. Think about it, if I’m not willing to endure such humiliation, why would I accept yours? I’d rather die than compromise."

Saying so, he flipped a blade out from the corner of his shirt and pressed it against his wrist artery.

Chen Kang was genuinely frightened this time, dropping his smile and saying, "Alright, I promise to let you go, but how can I trust that you won’t report me after you leave?"

"If I wanted to report you, I would’ve done it long ago. To make it clear, the Shen Family killed my mother, and I only want to seek revenge against them. As of now, you haven’t caused me any real harm. I won’t waste my energy on you."

"I understand. Here’s what we’ll do—I’ll back off, and not only will I stop bothering you, but I will also cancel the alliance with the Shen Family. However, you must promise me that after you’ve taken your revenge, you will destroy those recordings."

"That’s possible. But let me give you a piece of advice: commit too many injustices and you will bring about your own destruction. There are so many attractive people in the world, you have wealth and power, and you’re not bad-looking either. It’s not hard to find someone who reciprocates your feelings, so better stop committing sins."
