Game Of Life System! - Chapter 280: "Scheming" and "Suppression"
Chapter 280: “Scheming” and “Suppression”
Slender white fingers slid across the phone screen. Under the halo of light, the girl’s slightly pale face seemed to reveal some traces of blood vessels, as if it had been newly peeled off. The eggs have a beauty that is on the verge of breaking.
In the slightly dark room, the girl was lying on the bed with the soles of her feet raised, mechanically scrolling through her phone, but her eyes that often lost focus showed that she was always distracted.
Ding dong!
As the notification ringtone on WeChat rang, a new message popped up in the group chat of “Sisters of Caiyi Times”.
Yu Duo noticed it, but didn’t think much about it.
But before, she was obviously the most positive one.
She still remembered that her parents had always moved her and her brother with them since she was a child, from the initial dormitory of a state-owned enterprise, to the high-rise elevator, to the townhouse, and finally to the single-family manor.
She and her brother Yu Fei’s schools have been changing, from public to private, from monolingual to bilingual. The tuition is getting more and more expensive, and the way to school is getting more and more lonely…
Every time when Yu Duo just meets a new friend, At that time, she had to be forced to follow her into a new environment.
The funniest thing she still remembers is that the first day she just borrowed 100 yuan from a deskmate she just met, and the next day she transferred to another school, and she still hasn’t got the 100 yuan back…
Her parents thought He cultivated some hobbies for her, so she learned cello, painting, and singing. Unfortunately, she was only half-baked in everything she learned. Yu Duo still often felt at a loss about her life.
Until she failed to pass the college entrance examination, she entered Caiyi under the arrangement of her parents. In their words, she didn’t expect herself to be very good, so she just studied something easy, and left the family business to her brother to take care of. She herself, as long as she Just find a good and well-matched family to marry…
Yu Duo didn’t have any ideas, so she listened to her parents and came to Caiyi College and became a freshman in the broadcasting and hosting department.
But the college life that Yu Duo had longed for did not go smoothly during her freshman year.
She initially thought that as long as she was kind to others from the bottom of her heart, others would do the same to her. Isn’t this how sisters and best friends in TV series, novels, and comics get along with each other?
At the beginning, her three roommates were indeed very nice people. They ate together, went to class together, and chatted together about who was the most handsome in the class. Whose lap did a certain senior have fallen into, and who was a senior in Hengdian again? What role did I get…
Yu Duo can’t remember when the change started.
Maybe it was because one day her brother Yu Fei drove a McLaren P1 to pick her up for dinner. At that time, several roommates were still excited, saying that we should never forget each other even if we are rich and noble, until they heard that he was not her suitor, but It was her brother, and their expressions changed.
It could also be that one day, Yu Duo asked them to go shopping together. Her original intention was to give each of them a bag as a “memorial of friendship”, but when she saw that Yu Duo was shopping only for big-name brands. When they were in Jinge Shopping Mall, they stopped in unison…
Then Yu Duo suddenly discovered that they no longer asked her to go to class together, and they no longer discussed gossip with her. The group chat in the dormitory suddenly became deserted. , until Yu Duo accidentally discovered that they had already established a small group alone, and they chatted passionately in it every day, and there were also a lot of “bad words” about her mixed in.
“Did you see that during the physical education class today, Yu Duo played the role of the little white flower again? She can’t run, so she just pretends to be pitiful!”
“Yu Yang’s group of boys are still clamoring to send her to the infirmary. “It’s so ridiculous. She should have sent her away in a McLaren.”
“She also said that she has never been in love. She is obviously a scumbag who spends all day fishing…”
“I heard that these rich girls are behind the scenes! ” She spends more time playing than anyone else. Last time I saw her secretly going to the drugstore. Do you think she went to buy something? ”
“…”
Such chats seemed to be their daily routine, or the only topic. When they are “Yu Duo”, the number of their messages will become particularly dense.
That day, Yu Duo ran to the rooftop alone and cried sadly all afternoon.
She didn’t know what went wrong. The unexperienced girl longed for friendship for the first time, and fell all over her body.
Later, Yu Duo took a break from school for three months. When she returned to school, it was already the beginning of her sophomore year. After Yu Fei’s guidance, Yu Duo found a counselor and gave her some gifts. She also didn’t get along well with her roommates. The harmonious Shen Yutong and Su Yajing got together, plus Cui Min’er, an exchange student from Kimchi Country, to form a new dormitory.
At first, Yu Duo was cautious and did not even dare to reveal the fact that she had 50,000 yuan a month’s pocket money. Until one day, Yu Fei came to take her home. At the school gate, she was still seen by Su Yajing and Shen Yutong who were passing by.
Yu Duo’s anxiety lasted until she returned to the dormitory at night. Shen Yutong and Su Yajing lifted her onto a chair and began to “torture” her.
“Yeah, I don’t have a lot of money…I don’t know about my parents. I, that is, I still have more than one million in New Year’s money on Alipay…”
Yu Duo said weakly when faced with the two girls’ questioning.
New Year’s money…more than one million?
Shen Yutong and Su Yajing gasped on the spot, and then began to accuse Yu Duo of his crimes, mainly “acting like them”, “plastic sisters”, “eating by hiding” and so on.
Yu Duo confusedly agreed to a series of “unequal contracts”. Of course, only one person who cashed in on the spot gave them a lipstick.
After that, Yu Duo found that nothing seemed to have changed. The satisfied Shen Yutong and Su Yajing treated her to a buffet together on the day they received the lipstick…
The seafood buffet cost 688 per person, which was cheaper than the lipstick she gave. A little, but not a whole lot cheaper.
Shen Yutong and Su Yajing did not isolate her. On the contrary, the relationship between them became better and better.
Even Cui Min’er seemed to only like to talk to her about her concerns. He even brought her a comic book about Kimchi Country and asked her to explore the secrets between men and women…
She was unfortunate and had never made a true friend, but She was also lucky, as she was pulled up by six hands as soon as she fell.
The entire sophomore year was the happiest year Yu Duo had lived since she was born.
Therefore, she cherishes this friendship more than anyone else.
In the past, she was always the most active one in a group of four people. She would take the trouble to raise topics every day and share her little bits and pieces with them. When they responded, Yu Duo would hide there. Smirking, feeling extremely satisfied.
But recently, everything seems to have changed subtly.
Yu Duo knew that it was not their problem, but that she had changed…
She still couldn’t help but click on the group chat. She saw that it was Su Yajing who was venting her bitterness in the group:
Sister Ran Ran: “Jimei, what should I do? The hotel will be open tomorrow There is a conference, and Mr. Qu hopes that I can participate and speak a few words at the conference, but I am afraid…”
Sister Tongtong: “I’m afraid of the market. You are number one in the professional class of the acting department, show me your skills. , shouldn’t it be done just like filming?”
Sister Ran Ran: “Hehe, that’s right, but I can’t talk nonsense. Forget it, I’ll go to the forum to offer a high price and buy a speech script first~”
Sister Min’er: “@苏雅婧, so Zhou Wang really puts that value Is the hotel worth hundreds of millions given to you?”
Sister Ran Ran: “You can’t say it’s given to me. I’m just helping him take care of it. It’s so stressful that I’m planning to enroll in another class at the Business School.”
Min. Erjie: “@宇彴, how is the filming of your TV series going? Do you have an assistant and an agent?”
Sister Tongtong: “I just signed the contract and I haven’t met with my agent yet. But it should be soon…”
Seeing a few people chatting in the group, Yu Duo, who was already feeling uncomfortable, wanted to cry even more.
She really wants to participate!
But now, she seemed to have nothing to say…
Zhou Wang sent Su Yajing to a hotel, and sent Shen Yutong to the crew of “Chu Tianyao”, but he didn’t care about himself.
Well… I can’t seem to blame him. After all, I haven’t replied to his messages for a long time, and I didn’t dare to answer his calls. Occasionally, I accidentally liked his Moments, which scared Yu Duo and canceled it immediately. Pretending to be an ostrich, I prayed that I didn’t see him.
She missed him so much…
But Yu Duo felt that there was nothing about herself that could attract Zhou Wang now, right?
She has a stupid mouth and is not as coaxing as Sister Ran Ran. The bear is also small and not as sexy as Sister Tongtong. Sister Min’er even beats her up in every dimension…
She has become poor now and even wants to give Zhou Wang couldn’t even afford a gift.
What boy would like her like this?
So she had to restrain herself, so that she wouldn’t have to worry about ruining her friendship with Sister Ran Ran. Maybe she could be the bridesmaid when they get married in the future!
As Yu Duo thought about it, she started laughing, laughing and crying again… But she didn’t want to be Zhou Wang’s bridesmaid!
Ding dong! Ding dong!
At this time, a new message popped up in the group chat. Yu Duo originally wanted to close WeChat, but when she lowered her head and looked at it, Yu Duo couldn’t help but be startled.
Because their topic has shifted from their “career” to something else.
Pictures, links, and articles on public accounts, Shen Yutong and Su Yajing were discussing something crazily. Their messages flashed so fast that Yu Duo only noticed two names, one seemed to be the name of a certain female star, and the other It is “looking around”.
Zhou Wang…what happened?
Yu Duo’s heart tightened, and she quickly scrolled to the top and found the beginning of everything. She didn’t know where Su Yajing downloaded it from, but it was already a bit blurry screenshot.
The content of the screenshot comes from “Weibo”. It is a post posted by a female celebrity named “Xia Xiwei” and was viewed about ten minutes ago. @xiaxiwei: [It seems that from this day on, my life has an accurate scale. Thank you, Mr. Zhou@zhouwang]
Below are a few accompanying pictures.
Su Yajing forwarded the accompanying pictures separately, and Yu Duo opened them one by one. There were three accompanying pictures in total. The content of the first accompanying picture made Yu Duo bite her lip.
In the photo, Xia Xiwei was making a wish against a candle, and beside her stood Zhou Wang, who was smiling and watching. In fact, there should be some other people in the photo, but for some reason, the others seemed blurry.
From the perspective of this photo, it seems as if Zhou Wang is the leading actor driving all this and is celebrating Xia Xiwei’s birthday.
The second photo is of a restaurant. It should be daytime. Xia Xiwei and Zhou Wang are leaning on the railing of the terrace, with the blue sea behind them, in an intimate posture.
The third photo was on a cruise ship. The angle looked like it was taken secretly by Xia Xiwei. Zhou Wang was talking to someone on the side. Xia Xiwei was squatting next to him, holding up his mobile phone in one hand, and took the photo of herself and Zhou Wang. , with a narrow smile and bright eyes, like a funny girlfriend.
These photos, coupled with the meaningful copywriting, create a sense of “official announcement”.
Yu Duo didn’t know who Xia Xiwei was, so after briefly checking the other party’s encyclopedia, she quickly opened Weibo and found the other party’s account.
It’s just that the meager message has been deleted by the other party, as if it was accidentally posted by mistake and then quickly withdrawn. Many celebrities have done similar “operations”, and there is nothing unusual about it.
But the Internet is a place with memories, so soon, Yu Duo found the corresponding trace in Xia Xiwei’s recent “update”.
Mainly from the large number of comments from fans –
“???”
“You got up early, I must have gotten up early… Xia Xiwei is mine, it’s mine!”
“It’s over, my favorite Xiaoxia is no longer I’m so pure, I can’t imagine how happy this man named Zhou Wang must be…”
“There’s a huge reward for all the information on this hot man, I’m going to kill him!”
“Is there even a reward for this, Zhou Wang from Wuyou Media? You don’t know him?”
“Ah, so this ‘Mr. Zhou’ is an Internet celebrity?”
“Hey, he is a shareholder of Wuyou Media, and he is said to be a billionaire, okay?
” , a handsome man, a wealthy woman, a standard combination in the entertainment industry…”
“Jimeis, someone actually dares to compete with us for Xiaoxia… Hey, this man is quite handsome. Wait for me to enter the enemy camp alone to spy on the enemy. If If I don’t come back, don’t wait for me.”
In a large number of comments, the name “Zhou Wang” kept appearing.
Yu Duo took another look at the hot searches. Keywords such as “Xia Xiwei official announcement”, “Xia Xiwei’s meager original text”, “Wuyou Media Weekly Review”, “”Chu Tianyao” Season 2″, etc., had already entered the search results in just a short while. The top 100 hot searches.
Only then did Yu Duo realize that this female star named “Xia Xiwei” was probably very popular in the entertainment industry.
How could Zhou Wang be like this? After provoking Sister Tongtong, it wasn’t enough for her, and she went to the entertainment industry to flirt with women… How could he be worthy of Sister Ran Ran!
“Big radish with big heart, big radish… I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!”
Yu Duo picked up the pillow on the small bed, imagined the pillow as Zhou Wang, and started to vent her anger crazily.
Boom!
At this moment, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and Yu Duo’s mother opened the door.
As for Yu Duo, as soon as there was a noise outside the door, she lay back on the bed again, pretending to be asleep.
“Duoduo, are you still sleeping?”
Yu’s mother walked in. Seeing no response from Yu Duo, she sighed, “Don’t pretend to be asleep. Mom knows you’re awake. Let’s go shopping with her. , Just take it as a break. You haven’t gone out much since we came to the magic city. How can you stay at home all day?”
Mother Yu said as she walked to the window and opened some gaps to let in the window. The remaining sunset shines in.
Yu Duo just kept his head down and said nothing.
Mother Yu walked to the bed again, picked up the pillow on the ground, patted it and warned: “After all, we rent this house, you still have to be careful not to damage the things in the house, otherwise the landlord will be offended. Not happy…”
After Yu’s mother finished speaking, seeing that Yu Duo still didn’t speak, she sighed softly, then walked out of the room and closed the door again.
It wasn’t until her mother’s footsteps were far away that Yu Duo suddenly sat up from the bed, her little face full of shock, and her mouth became depressed again.
Yes, what does everything about Zhou Wang have to do with myself now?
She… doesn’t even have a home anymore.
Yu Duo threw the phone aside, turned around and hugged her knees, trying not to think about those messy things.
While Yu Duo was staring at the sunset outside the window, she didn’t notice that on the bright mobile phone screen, Weibo automatically refreshed as the network signal temporarily stalled.
The next second, the entire meager hot search list suddenly… disappeared.
…
“Pfft… cough cough cough!”
Zhou Wang, who was sipping “braised duck tongue, mullet and egg soup” at the dining table facing the street on the second floor of the main store of Quanjude Wangfujing in Beidu, heard Lin Ran on the phone. report, I almost choked.
He picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and confirmed in surprise: “You mean, Weibo’s hot search list has disappeared?”
“Hmm, just a minute ago, Weibo official issued an emergency announcement, saying that it was because of the server Due to maintenance, the meager list will be temporarily suspended and will return to normal after one day.”
Lin Ran’s tone was also a bit strange.
This is quite a coincidence. As soon as the scandal between Mr. Zhou and Xia Xiwei came out, the meager hot search list suddenly disappeared.
Of course, Lin Ran didn’t think there was any connection between the two. She just felt a little pity. Although Zhou Wang’s attitude towards the matter was unclear, Xia Xiwei’s popularity was enough for Zhou Wang to earn a lot of traffic for nothing.
Zhou Wang’s meager account doesn’t even need to be operated. He has already gained tens of thousands of fans out of thin air. This chain reaction will also spread to Douyin. As long as it ferments, it may be more effective than Zhou Wang’s own popular video. Even better…
“Okay, I get it. It seems that I don’t have to respond specifically. It saves some trouble.”
Zhou Wang thinks this is also a good thing. Although he doesn’t care, after all, he and Xia Xiwei are on friendly terms. It’s innocent, and there’s no need to let others misunderstand.
He didn’t know if Xia Xiwei had lost her mind or why she suddenly posted such an update.
After hanging up the phone with Lin Ran, Zhou Wang looked up. Ding Yi on the opposite side was still patiently helping him wrap the roast duck in burritos. Sensing Zhou Wang’s eyes, she looked over with a smile, “What happened?” “Oh, you reacted so loudly?”
“It’s okay, it’s a little farce…”
Zhou Wang didn’t explain. After all, he didn’t tell Ding Yi just now, so there was no need to mention it again now that it was over.
Ding Yi didn’t ask any questions. He just smiled and handed the rolled roast duck to Zhou Wang. “Here, try it quickly. The first bite is the most important. Eat it slowly!”
“Okay, thank you!”
Zhou Wang answered. After eating the roast duck, he took a bite and then pointed his thumb at Ding Yi, “The roast duck is just average, but your roll is delicious.”
Ding Yi smiled “hehe” with a very stinky look on his face, as if he was Say “Of course”.
While Zhou Wang was concentrating on dealing with the roast duck, Ding Yi’s cell phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw, no surprise, that it was a WeChat message that arrived as expected –
Sister Xiwei: “Yiyi, you are so… interesting.” ?”
