After returning home, Su Cheng found himself unable to fall asleep.
Because he was full of doubts.
He had learned from the Ji family's servants that he had once been in a relationship with Gu Ruoxue.
The relationship didn't last long, just a week.
However, a week later, he jumped into a river.
The detailed process was unknown to them.
The real reason was known only to Gu Ruoxue.
"What a mix of impressive and frustrating,"
Su Cheng sighed to himself, never expecting that he had been so impressive in the past, managing to date Gu Ruoxue despite his ordinary background. However, the fact that he had ended up jumping to his death because of the breakup left him speechless.
Initially, he had known that he had died by jumping into a river after a breakup, but he wasn't sure with whom he had broken up, nor did he want to find out.
If he had been murdered, he would have undoubtedly sought revenge.
But since it was a breakup that led to his death, could he really take revenge?
So, he had decided to act as if he didn't know, avoiding any investigation, and convinced himself that the only thing he could do was to become better.
"Ding Dong~"
"Ding Dong~"
His phone kept chiming with notifications.
One was from someone clever and resourceful,
asking him to log in for work.
Accompanied by a transfer.
But today, Su Cheng had no mood to be a wage earner.
Su Cheng then clicked on another chat box from Liu Qingyue.
Liu Qingyue: "Only Gu Ruoxue can give you the answers."
Liu Qingyue: "She's the only one with that ability."
Seeing these two messages, Su Cheng fell into deep thought again.
Not only did Gu Ruoxue know about her heart condition, but even when he was on the brink of death, her intervention had been too precise, as if she could predict the future, allowing him to escape death.
The secrets of this woman were even more numerous than his own.
Even the Ji family's servants couldn't fully understand her.
The key point was that she had saved his life, which was an undeniable fact.
Therefore, no matter what, he had to thank her in person first.
"I'll go to her club directly tomorrow at noon."
Finally, Su Cheng made his decision.
As for his ex-girlfriend?
What was that to him?
Perhaps she had saved him because of this identity.
But since she hadn't made it clear, he naturally wouldn't bring up this relationship that had nothing to do with him, causing her trouble.
He just intended to express his gratitude, nothing more.
Just as Su Cheng had figured things out, his phone buzzed again.
"Ding Dong~"
The clever and resourceful person sent another message: "Why aren't you replying to my messages?"
Seeing the little boss's message, Su Cheng couldn't help but chuckle; the person was very persistent in wanting to play games with him.
So, he decided to start working.
He went to his desk, preparing to operate the mouse and play the game.
But as soon as he entered the game interface, he found that a friend had sent him a gift, so he curiously clicked in to check.
Upon seeing it, he was stunned.
This ID, clever and resourceful, had sent him hundreds of skins!!
Besides the limited ones, he basically had them all!
"Holy crap?!"
Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, dumbfounded as he looked at his skin depot.
The key point was that the gift was impossible to refuse.
The total price had exceeded fifty thousand yuan!
After a long time, Su Cheng took a deep breath and took out his phone to contact this "clever and resourceful" local tyrant.
【Not a Fan of Oranges】: "Why did you take it upon yourself to send me so many skins?"
Within ten seconds—
【Clever and Resourceful】: "Because I was very satisfied yesterday. However, seeing that you didn't have a single skin yesterday, I sent you some."
Hearing this, Su Cheng felt his heart aching; he understood that the other party meant well, so he fell silent for a moment before typing on the keyboard: "I won't play games with you anymore. I don't need these skins, and I can give you the account to deal with yourself. Or I'll refund half the money to you later, you choose yourself!"
As soon as Su Cheng finished typing, he exited the game and logged off, lying on the bed with a troubled expression, waiting for the other party's message on his phone.
……………………………………
Meanwhile, Cornelia on the other side was looking at the screen, completely bewildered. She had never expected that Su Cheng would say he didn't want to play games with her anymore.
She had thought Su Cheng would be very happy…
But instead…
"How could it be…"
Cornelia's eyes were full of sorrow. She was deeply disheartened, muttering to herself.
"What to do…"
She lowered her head, her eyes already red.
She didn't know what to do or where to go.
She just sat there, motionless, looking lost, not knowing how long she had been sitting.
Until she felt her arms getting stiff, she finally snapped back to reality.
She thought of something and immediately stood up, walked into the kitchen, and took out a bottle of drink from the refrigerator.
She opened the cap and gulped down a few big mouthfuls.
Then she stood there, feeling her gradually active little brain.
Next, her thoughts became clearer and more agile.
"Not enough, not enough!"
Saying that, she grabbed another bottle and poured it into her mouth, then started to feel the changes in her brain again.
In that instant, countless neurons aligned orderly, and a "Little Cornelia" appeared in her brain, guiding the neurons along the right path "forward"!
Immediately after—
Countless reasonable and unsolvable theories surfaced in her brain.
At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten all her troubles, focusing entirely on this magnificent and great research, repeatedly simulating relentlessly!
Finally—
Cornelia suddenly widened her eyes, her eyes shining with the light of 'I'm beginning to understand everything.'
She was so excited that her hands trembled slightly!
She ran back to her bedroom, took out her phone, and started to reply to Su Cheng.
【Clever and Resourceful】: "Yesterday, you accompanied me to play, and I was very satisfied, but others have skins, and you don't, which made me feel very embarrassed."
【Clever and Resourceful】: "So, sending you these skins is just to serve me better, you can treat them as work skins."
Then, she anxiously waited for the other party's response.
【Not a Fan of Oranges】: "Even if you say that, the skins are on the account, and once sent, it's done. I don't have the habit of taking advantage of others!!!"
【Clever and Resourceful】: "You big man, why are you so sentimental? I said that sending you skins is just for serving me, not you taking advantage. Others have work numbers and work cars when they go to work, isn't my work skin very reasonable?"
With solid logic, it was convincing.
【Clever and Resourceful】: "If you feel uneasy, just use these skins when playing with me!"
After a long time—
【Not a Fan of Oranges】: "Alright, since you've said it like that, I'll treat them as work skins."
"Yay!"
Seeing this, Cornelia excitedly jumped up. After calming down, a cunning smile appeared on her face.
"Poor Su Cheng, played by me, Cornelia, like a puppet, totally unaware!"
"Hahahahahahahah~"
Once again, the advantage of intelligence crushing made Cornelia burst into laughter, looking very smug.
Then, unable to hold back anymore, her courage grew, and she prepared to tease Su Cheng with some mischievous thoughts.
And say the things she usually dared not say but wanted to say.
After all, no matter how you say it, this time the advantage was hers.
Cornelia sent another message to Su Cheng.
【Clever and Resourceful】: "Hmm, now that's more like it, such a good boy. Yesterday, you made me very satisfied. That made me really like you!"
【Clever and Resourceful】: "I'm going to start by packaging for a month, oh no no no."
At this point, she took out her phone to check her balance and found that she still had several hundred thousand.
This was her New Year's money accumulated over several years.
She had never had any concept of money since she was a child.
So she started typing again: "I'll start by packaging for a year first, hurry up and log in!"
However, one minute passed, and Su Cheng still hadn't replied.
Two minutes passed, and nothing changed.
……
Five minutes passed, and Su Cheng finally replied.
【Not a Fan of Oranges】: "I c…"
