Chapter 1: Break up with girlfriends

My name is Ye Chen, this year I am 17 years old. Since I was a child, I have lived together with my grandfather in a remote village. My life is the same as boys in general, but my life began to change when my grandfather died.

because No one wants to take care of me I started to live independently and started to work, I started working so I could continue to live, because of my good grades I got a scholarship to go to school in the city to get a more decent education.

I currently study at Hexing School, After three months I studied there, I finally have a girlfriend, my girlfriend's name is Yu Ting She has shoulder-length hair, about 155cm tall and has a slim body, with a cute face, though not the most beautiful woman in school but Yu Ting can still be considered the ideal woman for most men.

We dated for 9 months, after we entered the second year and were placed in a different class, Yu Ting's attitude towards me began to change One hundred and eighty degrees.

This is my story.

Today is Sunday, Ye Chen's school and workplace is on vacation, yesterday Ye Chen is paying, today he intends to invite Yu Ting to go to Starbucks for lunch.

the salary from Ye Chen's part-time job was not too high. Every month Ye Chen had to eat ordinary food and sometimes eat leftovers at his part-time job, so that he could take Yu Ting to go to starbuck at the end of the month.

But today all the calls and messages sent by Ye Chen were ignored by Yu Ting, this was what made Ye Chen upset.

"Where's Tingting Going, Why does Tingting not want to answer calls from me" indeed in recent days Yu Ting often ignores calls from Ye Chen.

Ye Chen looked at the Clock on the cellphone that didn't look suitable for use, the digital clock was already showing at 12 noon, Ye Chen decided to go to look for food and drinks.

After leaving his rented house, Ye Chen went to a shopping center, Ye Chen headed to a simple-looking food stall, Ye Chen ordered food and drinks.

"Uncle please one fried noodles and one soda drink" after ordering food Ye Chen looked for a seat to wait for the food he ordered delivered.

Ye Chen saw the scene on the busy street "Rommm !!" A loud sound is the sound of a luxury car engine, a Bwm Sport with a price of hundreds of thousands of dollars through Ye Chen's view. Some people who are eating also pay attention to the arrival of this BMW car.

The BMW pulled over to the side of the road, when the door of the car opened, the figure of the woman Ye Chen knew came out of the car, it was Yu Ting his girlfriend.

A young man also got out of the BMW car, this handsome man with fashionable clothes and a cool hairstyle.

Yu Ting put her arm around the man's arm, and acted like lovers, Fools know what kind of relationship they have at the moment.

Seeing this, fire in Ye Chen's heart appeared, Ye Chen rose from his seat and approached Yu Ting and the strange man.

"Ting Ting! ! ! "When someone shouted her name Yu Ting turned around, seeing that the person who was shouting her name was Ye Chen, Yu Ting panicked a little.

Yu Ting immediately let go of her hand From the arm of a rich man "Ye Chen how can you be here" Yu Ting spoke with a little nervous.

Shouldn't I ask like that, who is this guy and why are you together with him" even though Ye Chen knew of Yu Ting's relationship with this man, but Ye Chen still hoped that his guess was wrong.

"Me.. . me.. , He is "Yu Ting Looks Nervous when Want to Answer the question from Ye Chen, Yu Ting does not know what to answer at this time.

"Ting Ting, who is he?" The man next to Asks Yu Ting.

"He, He" Yu Ting was a little hesitant to answer the rich man beside her.

"This person is my ex-boyfriend" Yu Ting had rounded her determination to follow this rich man and throw away Ye Chen who sincerely loved her.

When Yu Ting's words came out, the fire in Ye Chen's heart really exploded, Ye Chen was very angry at the words Yu Ting had just said to him.

"Oh so this is the Poor man you often tell me" The man beside Yu Ting looked at Ye Chen with an insulting look.

Ye Chen raised his hand and wanted to strike Yu Ting.

Seeing what Ye Chen would do, Yu Ting was afraid and closed her eyes.

Ye Chen really wanted to hit Yu Ting, but somehow he couldn't bear to do it.

"Yu Ting why are you doing this to me, say the reason you prefer him over me?" Ye Chen asked.

"You really want to know the reason, let me say, I'm tired of living poor with you, you can't buy me expensive clothes, jewelry and even expensive cellphones, but he" While pointing at the man next to her, "he can give what you can't give it to me ".

"But Tingting I have love for you, is that not enough for you," Ye Chen said.

"Nonsense, can love be eaten, can love buy me what I want? Yu Ting insulted Ye Chen with her words.

All the words Yu Ting stabbed Ye Chen into the deepest part of the heart, indeed Ye Chen was poor but Ye Chen always worked hard so that one day his life could change for the better.

"Good good, I will remember your words, I am Ye Chen is blind because I love a girl like you, from today our relationship ends, and never look for me again" Without waiting for an answer from Yu Ting, Ye Chen immediately left and left Yu Ting and her affair .

Seeing Ye Chen's figure disappear, there was a slight sense of loss in Yu Ting's heart, but it was only for an instant, Yu Ting immediately put her hand back on the arm of this rich man and walked towards the shopping center.

After leaving the department store, Ye Chen went under an old bridge on the outskirts of downtown, this place was Ye Chen's favorite place, Ye Chen often went here when his mood was sad or having a lot of trouble.

Listening to the sound of the flowing river water made Ye Chen feel calm.

Ye Chen began to ponder what happened today. His first love story had to fail. In this way, the woman Ye Chen loved turned out to prefer money over him.

Ye Chen closed his eyes and fell asleep, when Ye Chen woke up the sky It was Afternoon, Ye Chen began to accept what was happening today, Ye Chen decided to forget the memories with Yu Ting forever.

Ye Chen reached into his shirt, Ye Chen pulled out a necklace like Jade with complicated patterns and a red color like blood.

This is a legacy from his grandfather, said his grandfather is a family heirloom that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Ye Chen still didn't know the usefulness of this necklace and what secrets it contained, Ye Chen put the necklace into his shirt again.

Ye Chen hadn't visited Grandpa's grave for a long time, Ye Chen wanted to go home to his hometown, other than to visit his grandfather's grave Ye Chen wanted to relax the mind there.

Fortunately, the distance to the bus station wasn't too far, in just 5 minutes Ye Chen made it there.

"Cruuuuuuukkk ..." Ye Chen's bowels thundered "I forgot I haven't eaten anything from this morning" Ye Chen rubbed his starving little stomach.

Ye Chen went to buy some steamed buns and mineral water to accompany the trip.

Ye Chen sent a message to the homeroom teacher to ask for school leave for the next few days.

Ye Chen managed to arrive on time, the bus would leave immediately.

There are already many people on the bus, the bus will also pass through several other places and villages.

Because of the Little Boring Trip Ye Chen played the old school game on his cellphone.

Not feel The journey is almost at the final destination that is Ye Chen Village, at this time the only remaining passengers are only Ye Chen.

In a few kilometers the bus will reach Ye Chen village, but suddenly the bus is a little out of control, the bus driver is forced to pull aside his vehicle.

"What's wrong uncle? Ye Chen immediately asked

"I do not know, let me check what happened to this bus", the driver immediately went down and then checked what was wrong with his bus.

"How?" Ye Chen asked.

"Sorry, young man, the tires are flat and I can't continue the journey, I can only wait for someone to fix them tomorrow morning." The bus driver immediately apologized to Ye Chen with regret.

"You Can Sleep on the bus tonight if you want," the bus driver's uncle offered Ye Chen to sleep on the bus until tomorrow morning.

It's okay my uncle can walk, a few more Kilometers is the village where I live.

Ye Chen paid the fare of the trip and dropped off the bus, Ye Chen walked towards the village where Ye Chen lived, the road conditions were quite dark considering it was midnight, the lighting here was very minimal, very different from the city that Ye Chen lived in for 1 year.

Luckily, Ye Chen didn't carry a bag, so Ye Chen could run without fear of exhaustion.

Ye Chen ran for a few minutes. Suddenly the sky appeared. The figure of the old man was floating, the old man was wearing white clothes, all the white hair that the old man was wearing was all white.

Ye Chen was a Modern person and did not believe in ghosts, but seeing an Old Man floating above the sky naturally made Ye Chen afraid.

The figure in the sky suddenly approached towards Ye Chen, Ye Chen who saw this was very scared and ran as hard as he could.

    Here's a revised version of your chapter
    ---

    My name is Ye Chen, and I am 17 years old. Since childhood, I have lived with my grandfather in a remote village. My life was like that of any typical boy, but everything began to change when my grandfather died.

    With no one willing to take care of me, I started living independently and working to support myself. Because of my good grades, I received a scholarship to attend school in the city for a better education.

    I currently study at Hexing School. After three months there, I finally got a girlfriend named Yu Ting. She has shoulder-length hair, is about 155 cm tall, and has a slim figure with a cute face. While she may not be the most beautiful girl in school, Yu Ting can still be considered the ideal woman for most men.

    We dated for nine months, but after we entered our second year and were placed in different classes, Yu Ting's attitude toward me changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

    This is my story.

    Today is Sunday, and both Ye Chen’s school and workplace are on vacation. Yesterday, Ye Chen received his paycheck, and today he intends to invite Yu Ting to lunch at Starbucks.

    Ye Chen’s salary from his part-time job isn’t very high. Every month, he has to eat ordinary food and sometimes leftovers from his job so that he can afford to take Yu Ting to Starbucks by the end of the month.

    But today, all of Ye Chen's calls and messages to Yu Ting were ignored, which made him feel upset.

    "Where's Tingting going? Why doesn't Tingting want to answer my calls?" Indeed, in recent days, Yu Ting has often ignored Ye Chen's calls.

    Ye Chen looked at the clock on his cellphone, which didn’t seem to be working properly; the digital display showed it was already noon. He decided to go look for food and drinks.

    After leaving his rented house, Ye Chen went to a shopping center. He headed to a simple-looking food stall and ordered his meal.

    "Uncle, please give me one fried noodle and one soda." After ordering, Ye Chen looked for a seat to wait for his food to be delivered.

    As he waited, Ye Chen observed the busy street. Suddenly, a loud roar caught his attention—a luxury car engine revving. A BMW sports car, worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, passed by Ye Chen's view. Several people dining nearby also noticed the arrival of the BMW.

    The BMW pulled over to the side of the road. When the door opened, a woman Ye Chen recognized stepped out of the car—it was Yu Ting, his girlfriend.

    A young man also got out of the BMW. He was handsome, dressed in fashionable clothes, and had a cool hairstyle.

    Yu Ting wrapped her arm around the man's arm and acted like a couple. Anyone could tell what kind of relationship they had at that moment.

    Seeing this ignited a fire in Ye Chen’s heart. He rose from his seat and approached Yu Ting and the strange man.

    "Ting Ting!" When someone shouted her name, Yu Ting turned around. Upon seeing Ye Chen, she panicked slightly.

    Yu Ting immediately let go of the man’s arm. "Ye Chen, how are you here?" she asked nervously.

    "Shouldn't I be asking who this guy is and why you’re with him?" Ye Chen thought, even though he already suspected Yu Ting’s relationship with the man, he still hoped his guess was wrong.

    "Um... this is..." Yu Ting looked nervous as she tried to answer Ye Chen’s question, unsure of what to say at that moment.

    "Ting Ting, who is he?" the man beside her asked Yu Ting.

    "He... he..." Yu Ting hesitated to respond to the rich man beside her.

    "This person is my ex-boyfriend," Yu Ting finally said, having made up her mind to be with this rich man and to throw away Ye Chen, who had sincerely loved her.

    When Yu Ting's words came out, the fire in Ye Chen's heart exploded. He was furious at what Yu Ting had just said to him.

    "Oh, so this is the poor man you often tell me about?" The man beside Yu Ting looked at Ye Chen with a condescending expression.

    Ye Chen raised his hand, wanting to strike Yu Ting.

    Seeing Ye Chen's reaction, Yu Ting was frightened and closed her eyes.

    Ye Chen truly wanted to hit Yu Ting, but for some reason, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

    "Yu Ting, why are you doing this to me? Tell me why you prefer him over me!" Ye Chen pleaded.

    "You really want to know the reason? Let me tell you—I'm tired of living in poverty with you. You can't buy me expensive clothes, jewelry, or even a fancy cellphone, but he," she said, pointing at the man beside her, "can give me what you can't."

    "But Ting Ting, I love you. Isn't that enough for you?" Ye Chen replied.

    "Nonsense! Can love be eaten? Can love buy me what I want?" Yu Ting insulted Ye Chen with her words.

    All of Yu Ting’s remarks pierced Ye Chen’s heart. He was indeed poor, but he always worked hard, hoping one day his life would change for the better.

    "Fine, I will remember your words. I, Ye Chen, was blind for loving a girl like you. From today on, our relationship is over. Never look for me again." Without waiting for Yu Ting's response, Ye Chen turned and walked away, leaving her and her new boyfriend behind.

    As Ye Chen’s figure disappeared, a fleeting sense of loss stirred in Yu Ting’s heart, but it was only for an instant. She quickly placed her hand back on the rich man's arm and walked toward the shopping center.

    After leaving the department store, Ye Chen went under an old bridge on the outskirts of downtown. This was Ye Chen’s favorite place, where he often went when he felt sad or troubled.

    Listening to the sound of the flowing river calmed him.

    Ye Chen began to reflect on what happened that day. His first love story had ended in failure. He realized that the woman he loved preferred money over him.

    Ye Chen closed his eyes and fell asleep. When he woke up, the sky was already afternoon. He began to accept what had happened that day and decided to forget his memories with Yu Ting forever.

    Reaching into his shirt, Ye Chen pulled out a jade necklace with intricate patterns, red like blood.

    This necklace was a family heirloom passed down from his grandfather.

    Ye Chen still didn’t know its significance or the secrets it held, so he tucked it back into his shirt.

    He hadn’t visited his grandfather's grave in a long time and wanted to return to his hometown. Aside from paying his respects, he hoped to find peace of mind there.

    Fortunately, the bus station wasn’t too far away. In just five minutes, Ye Chen arrived.

    His stomach growled loudly. "I forgot I haven’t eaten anything since this morning," he thought, rubbing his stomach.

    Ye Chen bought some steamed buns and mineral water for the trip.

    He texted his homeroom teacher to request a few days off from school.

    Ye Chen made it to the bus just in time as it was about to leave.

    Many people were already on board, and the bus would stop at several other places and villages along the way.

    To pass the time during the boring trip, Ye Chen played an old school game on his cellphone.

    Before he knew it, the bus was nearing his village. At this point, he was the only passenger left.

    A few kilometers from Ye Chen's village, the bus suddenly began to swerve. The driver struggled to control the vehicle.

    "What's wrong, uncle?" Ye Chen immediately asked.

    "I don’t know. Let me check what’s going on," the driver replied, stepping down to inspect the bus.

    "How is it?" Ye Chen asked.

    "I'm sorry, young man. The tires are flat, and I can't continue the journey. We’ll have to wait for someone to fix them tomorrow morning." The driver apologized regretfully.

    "You can sleep on the bus tonight if you want," the bus driver offered Ye Chen.

    "It’s okay, uncle. I can walk. My village is just a few kilometers away," Ye Chen replied.

    Ye Chen paid his fare and got off the bus, then walked toward his village. The road was quite dark since it was midnight, and the lighting was minimal—very different from the city where Ye Chen had lived for a year.

    Fortunately, without carrying a bag, Ye Chen could run without tiring easily.

    He ran for a few minutes when suddenly, a figure appeared in the sky. It was an old man floating, dressed in white, with all-white hair.

    Ye Chen, being a modern person, did not believe in ghosts, but seeing an old man floating above him naturally filled him with fear.

    The figure in the sky suddenly approached Ye Chen. Terrified, he ran as fast as he could.
