My Life Reset Simulator - Chapter 13

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Wang Tingfu paid the editor for Mr. Shu’s contact information. But she didn’t get to be happy for two minutes before she got angry and threw her phone on the soft pillow.

“What’s going on? Why isn’t he replying to me? Does he not know my identity?” Wang Tingfu hugged the doll and pouted her lips.

Two minutes later, she scooched over and picked up the phone.

Mr. Shu still did not reply to her message. He was exactly the same as the withered tree in his profile picture. He remained silent as though he was a dead man.

“Damn it, could it be that the editor lied to me?” Wang Tingfu felt indignant. “I’m going to teach you a lesson!”

The singer that Wang Tingfu had tipped before would spend every minute chatting with her. The singer even took the initiative to say good morning and good night to her and greeted her at each meal. It was just like what a dog would do to its owner. What the singer wanted was to build a good relationship with her so that she could support him in the competition with other streamers.

Wang Tingfu had grown accustomed to this kind of interaction where she tipped the streamers while they spoke everything in her favor to please her. Now that she met Mr. Shu, everything was completely different. She could not believe her own eyes.

She immediately texted Cai Pingtong on WeChat by sending an audio message. “What’s going on? Why isn’t Mr. Shu replying to me? Did you not tell him who I am?”

Cai Pingtong was also confused when he received the message. He thought that it did not make sense for Mr. Shu not to reply to her message because she was exceedingly rich.

“Miss Freya, Please wait a moment. The phone might not be with him. Let me figure out a way to reach him.”

Cai Pingtong frowned in confusion. Could it be that Mr. Shu doesn’t know who Freya is? It shouldn’t be. Freya had the same profile picture and screen name on WeChat and Netland.

If Mr. Shu so much as paid a little attention to the silver leader, he should know about Freya.

He then immediately contacted the person stuck on top. “Mr. Shu, a netizen called Freya is looking for you. Have you received her message?”

Xu Yuan did not read the whole sentence. He only saw the word “Freya” and casually replied, “I don’t know much about Norse mythology.”

“No, no, no.” Cai Pingtong was rather speechless on the inside. It looked like Xu Yuan had completely forgotten about the silver leader’s screen name. That was why he ignored Freya. He immediately explained, “Freya is the silver leader of your book! The rich woman who donated 150,000 dollars to your book on the first day!”

“Oh, don’t give my contact information to others if it’s not important.” Xu Yuan was too busy typing to have time to get upset.

Cai Pingtong was shocked by how calm Xu Yuan appeared. He had shared the author’s contact information with the rich fans before, but he had never seen a man like Xu Yuan, who was so indifferent and aloof.

“It’s a woman! A woman!” Cai Pingtong emphasized.

Xu Xu was so annoyed by him that he had to respond to him. “What was wrong with that person being a woman? A woman would only delay his work progress,” he thought. Then he said casually, “Tell her I’m busy.”

Cai Pingtong was so angry that he laughed instead. “Mr. Shu, my big man, Freya gave you a tip of 1,500 dollars. I’ve seen her tipping other people. I’m sure she’s not short on money. Moreover, she has reached out to the chief editor for your contact information. Please do me a favor and chat with her. She is a lady. Can you please reply to her message?”

He had done his best to speak well of Freya. A person like she should never be taken for granted.

Xu Yuan was not a fool. He sure understood the meaning of his preach.

He was now in a parallel world, so he would develop a few relationships with others as possible because it was unknown whether they could be brought back to the original world or not. It was better to do something practical, and earning more money was the way to go.

He stopped in his writing to thank the readers and replied, “Alright, I got it, I’ll reply to her message right away.”

“Thank you very much, Mr. Shu. She is a girl, make sure you are nice to her.”

Although he had already promised Cai Pingtong, when he was drinking water, he changed the friend request mode on his WeChat from not requiring verification to requiring verification.

Previously in the original world, he also wrote articles online, but there had never been any readers who would shoot him private messages, let alone a benefactor like Freya. As a result, he did not even know who was texting him when the conversation was well underway.

Then, Xu Xu clicked open Freya’s account with the red dot and realized that she had already said two sentences by herself.

“Hello, Mr. Shu. Your profile picture is really interesting.”

“Does it come with any particular meaning?”

“What are you doing, typing again?”

“Mr. Shu?”

Xu Yuan remembered Cai Pingtong’s words. She was a girl, so he had to act like a gentleman.

“Hello, Freya. The profile picture was taken at the green belt downstairs. It doesn’t come with any particular meaning actually.” He explained everything in one sentence.

It wasn’t because Xu Yuan was a frigid man. The truth was that he wanted to disguise himself as a man like that so that the one talking to him would gradually lose interest. Other than appreciating his work, he didn’t want to have too much interaction with other people.

After replying to the message, Xu Yuan opened Freya’s moments.

He found that it was as exquisite as a dating app. It was filled with all kinds of scenic photos and exquisite meals, or selfies of people wearing beautiful clothes, but they would never show their faces.

He also saw the diamond crown that Freya used as her profile picture. It was shining on her head, but her face was still hidden.

As Cai Pingtong said, she was definitely a rich person.

After a simple scan, he placed his phone on the table and continued to work on his thank-you note.

Even after seeing how rich she was, he still would not give up his identity as a frigid man. Because when two people of different social classes chat, one would always seek to please the other, which was inevitable. He did not come to the parallel world to be a pushover like this.

…

On the other side of the same city, Wang Tingfu moved from the soft cushion on the balcony to the dreamy princess bed. She grabbed the phone in her hand and her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief!

“Are you serious? Was that all you planned to tell me?”

Wang Tingfu had never felt that chatting would involve so many skills. In the past, it was always others who would deliver long speeches to please her. They wanted nothing more than to list out all their past achievements to attract her attention.

It was already the first time she could take the initiative to talk to someone! This damn frigid man was really an expert at making things awkward. He didn’t even know how to chat with a girl. Wang Tingfu wasn’t really trying to hear his answers. She was waiting for him to take the initiative to say something to her.

“What makes you think you can be so proud of yourself? You’re nothing but a story writer. You really bored me as hell!” Wang Tingfu cursed in a low voice. Then she said, “Give back the money to me!”

It was the first time Wang Tingfu felt her money was ill spent. She thought it was better to just throw it into the river.

Uncle Bai was all about Wang Tingfu’s manners as a lady. When he heard Wang Tingfu cursing, he immediately went upstairs and knocked on the door.

“What happened? Miss Tingfu? Who made you upset again?”

“What’s there to be upset about!” Wang Tingfu said in an indifferent and exasperated tone. “I just met a damn frigid man!”
