Days went by, day after day lying in bed playing games.
Rat-tat-tat
Gan Zhe fired the last round from his gun barrel, finally completing this evil mission.
These days, fewer and fewer people wanted to play with him.
If it weren't for this last strange wave of quantity.
He might not even have completed the mission today.
This last strange wave of quantity was truly bizarre, everyone was keyed in.
Once they placed an order, they started spouting abuse, forcing him to turn off his headset.
Fortunately, no matter how many times he died at the hands of these incomprehensible weirdos, it didn't affect the game experience of others.
As long as he could complete the mission, what did a few insults matter?
With a sense of relief, Gan Zhe transferred ten million to the designated account.
Phew
At least now he could take it easy for a few days.
Only that damn waiter, daring to embezzle his money to buy himself poor quality underwear.
Causing him to feel an itch down there these past few days.
Wanting to scratch it but not daring to.
Truly unforgivable.
Especially today, when Gan Zhe looked down, he discovered a few reddish pimple-like bumps.
No doubt a sign of an allergic reaction.
Anyway, Gan Zhe dared not let any waiter from this hotel buy for him again.
Who knows how much money they would embezzle.
The key point was that even after taking the money, they didn't get the job done properly.
Do they even deserve to be called a five-star hotel?
Gan Zhe casually put on his clothes and pants, planning to go out.
These past few days lying in bed playing games had started to make him restless.
Going out to the mall to get some air was a good idea.
The Qingjie Grand Hotel was right next to Pujie Commercial Street.
Standing at the intersection, looking at this familiar place.
Gan Zhe only felt endless melancholy.
It was here that he had witnessed Lizi and that rich heir enter the hotel.
The following scene, even without seeing it, he could guess what happened.
Just a reenactment of what he used to do at the Qingjie Grand Hotel.
Except for that damn somersault, of course.
Just thinking about Lizi being intimate with someone else made Gan Zhe feel green in the head.
Like raindrops falling on the fresh grass.
Oh
Speak of the devil.
Weren't those two people window shopping at the cosmetics store none other than Lizi and that rich heir?
Gan Zhe didn't call out, but quietly moved closer instead.
Wanting to eavesdrop on what that pair of lovebirds was saying.
"This one... this one's nice..."
Dian Bei felt somewhat relieved that this act was simple, just accompanying Lizi on a shopping trip.
All he had to do was carry bags and pay.
Something he excelled at.
As long as she didn't touch him, everything else was fine.
Come to think of it, they had been strolling down this street for quite a while now.
With just over an hour left before the boss's designated time limit.
As long as that hour passed, Dian Bei would be completely liberated.
To eat a peach?
Or perhaps a cherry?
Ah, he wanted to eat them both!
The more Dian Bei thought about it, the happier he became.
Watching Lizi still browsing and selecting, he patiently said, "Take your time, no rush, we have all day today."
He was performing on a schedule, as long as he could drag it out for this one hour.
Then he would be free as a bird.
He wished Lizi would spend the entire hour in this store.
"Tsk tsk tsk, taking so long to buy just a lipstick, Lizi, is this the wealthy lover you've taken up with? Doesn't seem like much to me."
Lizi was carefully selecting the color when a familiar voice came from beside her.
Gan Zhe?
The boss really was prescient, guessing that Gan Zhe would show up today.
However, the script the boss gave her was just to shop, shop, shop, with any additional dialogue left up to her.
"Ah... long time no see, nice clothes."
Lizi no longer had any feelings for her ex-boyfriend.
She didn't know what to say when they met now.
"Yeah, you too, nice clothes."
When Dian Bei and Lizi rehearsed the script, they were repeatedly emphasized to memorize their lines.
Don't let her be the only one with lines, blah blah blah.
So, even without any lines, he echoed her statement.
Complimenting people, who can't do that?
Human nature is to be a parrot.
As long as he echoed Miss Lizi, he couldn't go wrong.
Nice clothes?
Was this an insult?
Gan Zhe felt somewhat angered, did he not know how good his clothes were?
Just based on the quality of his underwear, these clothes couldn't be that great.
At most some cheap street stall merchandise worth a few dozen.
"Heh heh heh..."
Gan Zhe's voice was full of disdain.
Huh?
Based on Lizi's understanding of Gan Zhe, she could of course hear the disdain in that laugh.
She was somewhat puzzled, did he not like being complimented on his clothes?
But these clothes really were nice.
Worth tens of thousands.
The whole outfit cost over two hundred thousand.
More expensive than all the clothes she had bought Gan Zhe over the years combined.
But the two had already broken up, so Gan Zhe's opinion was irrelevant to her.
Her task today was just to go shopping and buy things.
"Clerk, I..."
Lizi pointed to the lipstick she had selected, about to make the purchase.
"Tsk tsk tsk, took so long picking, and that's all you're buying? Your taste isn't so great either. Seems like this rich heir isn't willing to spend money on you."
Gan Zhe mocked from the side.
Spend money?
Dian Bei's brain immediately activated, taking out his bank card and handing it to the clerk, "Here, swipe this."
"Hold on, I'll pay for all the lipsticks in this store."
Just as the clerk was about to take the card, Gan Zhe shouted loudly.
"You..."
Dian Bei was born a rich heir.
He used to be the big shot on this street, how could he accept such humiliation?
"Nevermind, let's go to another store."
Lizi quickly grabbed Dian Bei's outstretched hand.
????
!!!!!
Dian Bei's bravado immediately wilted.
It's over, it's all over, my arm.
Oh heavens, oh earth, save this child.
Dian Bei seemed to already envision his future one-armed life.
Wandering the rivers and lakes with a sculpture as his companion.
Gan Zhe didn't care why Dian Bei had become dispirited.
He just thought it was because he had been shaken by his imposing manner.
Gan Zhe looked at him smugly, took out his bank card and slapped it into the clerk's hand.
"You used to look down on me for being an online gaming companion, right? Well let me tell you, I've already signed a contract with the platform, and the money I earn each month is enough for you to live on for a lifetime."
"If you hadn't broken up with me back then, this whole store would be yours now."
"Unlike your current boyfriend, being so stingy, having to browse endlessly just to buy a lipstick."
While the clerk went to swipe the card, Gan Zhe vented all the grievances he had built up over the past few days.
Lizi didn't say much, but instead poked Dian Bei's side.
What was wrong with this actor, freezing up again after being fine just a moment ago?
Now it was your turn to go on stage, why don't you retort him?
Did you forget your lines again?
No, wait, there weren't any lines this time either.
You can't even improvise on the spot?
Such an unprofessional attitude.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
