After rebirth, we no longer marry
Chapter 1
My grandfather asked me on my birthday
which of the Zhou brothers I planned to
marry.
I chose the fifth son without hesitation.
The elders were shocked.
Everyone knew that the heiress of the Lin
Corporation, me, was madly in love with the
eldest Zhou son, and wouldn’t marry anyone
else.
In my past life, I did marry Jason Zhou.
But after only three months, I caught him
canoodling with my half–sister, Lily Lin.
He was tearful, begging for forgiveness,
“Please, it was just a mistake.”
I softened, but my grandfather found out and
sent Lily overseas.
Jason blamed me, and he hated me fiercely.
Over the next few years, my family elders
く
passed away one by one, our market share
was constantly stolen, and company secrets
were leaked.
I was hit by a car and died the day I
discovered I was pregnant.
This time around, I decided to let them be.
But then, after my engagement
announcement, he crashed my party, begging
me to marry him.
I saw Jason Zhou as soon as I left the study.
He was sitting among the guests in a
bespoke suit, his gaze constantly drifting
towards the entrance.
When he saw me, one of his buddies nudged
him, “Your… uh… devoted admirer has
arrived.”
“What are you doing here?” Jason glanced at
me, disappointment clear in his eyes.
In my past life, I would have rushed to his side
to appease him.

But the image of the truck hurtling towards
me was still burned into my brain, so I coldly
replied, “It’s my birthday party. Why can’t I be
here?”
His face darkened at my stiff tone.
“Hannah, what’s the meaning of this? Are you
trying to pick a fight? I took time out of my
schedule to attend your party, and this is how
you treat me? Don’t think that just because
you talked to your grandfather, our wedding
is set in stone!”
His friends jumped in. “Yeah, Hannah, what’s
your attitude? Apologize to Jason. If you
weren’t constantly chasing after him, he
wouldn’t even bother with you!”
I was speechless.
“If anyone here is unhappy, please leave. As for my marriage, that will be announced at
Grandpa’s 80th birthday next month. It’s none
of your business.”

I intended to marry the fifth son, but I hadn’t
even asked him yet. Although… my past life…
I couldn’t announce anything rashly.
“Marriage?”
A guest exclaimed, “So the two patriarchs are
finally planning to retire. And the heir to Zhou
Corporation will finally be decided.”
My grandfather and Mr. Zhou were lifelong
friends and were long overdue for retirement.
And I was the only child in my family.
They’d agreed that whoever I married would
get Mr. Zhou’s 20% stake.
In my past life, with Jason’s existing 15%,
he’d become the undisputed head of Zhou
Corporation after marrying me.
Big changes were coming to Zhou
Corporation.
Jason’s friends were ecstatic. “Jason, you’re
going to be CEO!”
Jason’s face lit up.
く
“Hannah, don’t think you’ve won just because
you’re marrying me. I hate that smug look on
your face.”
“I’ll learn from my mistakes. I’ll marry you, but
I’m absolutely not moving into your family
home!”
“And, before we get married, we’ll get your
pathetic sister a job.”
I was about to tell him the marriage was none
of his concern when I realized he’d been
reborn too.
In my past life, it was a Zhou household
servant who alerted me to their affair.
Now, he was trying to…
I was about to have him thrown out when
someone timidly called, “Sister.”
Lily, her face bruised and pale, approached,
drawing everyone’s attention.
Jason immediately rushed to her, concern
etched on his face. “What happened? Who
く
hurt you?”
Before Lily could answer, Jason glared at me.
“Hannah, do you always resort to these
underhanded tactics?!”
I was about to explain when Lily interrupted.
“It’s nothing. I just bumped into something on
the way here. It’s Sister’s birthday, and even
though she doesn’t like me, I wanted to wish.
her well.”
