Report

Jiang Chen didn't care about the confused Ayesha. After washing up, he was already comfortably lying on the soft bed.

The feeling of sleeping in a mansion was indeed different.

The chandelier was pleasing to the eye, the wallpaper and decor were soothing, and the bed was so soft that one could almost sink into it.

When he lived in the small bedroom of ten square meters, he had to hit the wall when he rolled on the bed. And this bed was more than enough for two more people to lie on.

He enjoyed the luxurious environment as he lazily took out the iPhone 6 that he just switched to, poked the cute Little White on the table, and opened WeChat.

To be honest, after the novelty faded, he switched back to the simple touch screen style.

Perhaps this was the shortcoming of Future 1.0? People might download it out of curiosity and the 53 megabytes of memory, but after the initial excitement, they would realize that there were many inconveniences with verbal commands. For example, would it be awkward to "talk to yourself" in public? Would it be inconvenient to use the phone in class?

Since Du Yongkang didn't belong to this era, the program he designed might be perfect, but it might not be suitable. This was indeed Jiang Chen's oversight. He originally thought that advanced technology would be awesome, but he forgot that creativity was equally important in the software industry. Just like a small scale game MC, without much technical content, even the graphics were pieced together by pixels, but the gameplay was comparable to a AAA game.

Fortunately, Little White had accidentally catered to another need of the people today.

A friend that would never betray you, and would always be with you, comfort you, and encourage you to continue. It would always be in your phone.

All in all, it was not bad to just keep Little White as an electronic pet. No matter what you said, it would respond wholeheartedly. If there was a secret that couldn't be told to others, it could be revealed without hesitation. In this era where information technology was constantly changing, the distance between people was increasing day by day. People who bore the burden of life alone, didn't they need someone to talk to?

If it wasn't for the fact that he already knew that the so-called basic artificial intelligence didn't possess real emotions and all of its reactions were based on data from the database, he would've been more than happy to chat with the little guy.

But now that he knew the secret behind it, he felt a little weird talking to an "inanimate object".

Sure enough, chatting with a real person was more "exciting".

However, just as he was about to chat with Liu Yao, his phone suddenly rang.

An unknown number? At this time, it might be a harassing call.

But since he had nothing to do, he lazily picked up the call.

"Hey, hey, hey, who are you?" Lazily answering, he changed to a more comfortable position and continued to lie down.

After a brief silence, there was finally a sound from the other side of the phone.

"… It's me. Do you still remember me? "A shy voice came from the other side of the phone, but it made Jiang Chen pause.

Why does this voice sound so familiar? Who is it?

Fang Yuanyuan took a deep breath and tried to make her tone sound natural.

Originally, she had already deleted Jiang Chen's phone number. But when she found out that the poor boy who once pursued her had become a "rich and handsome" and even lived in a mansion worth hundreds of millions, Fang Yuanyuan couldn't sit still anymore.

Especially Xiao Mengying's smug face, it made her feel disgusted and jealous.

When she thought about Xiao Mengying, Fang Yuanyuan was furious. The bonus of more than two million yuan slipped away from her hands just like that! Especially at the commendation meeting, the general manager repeatedly praised Xiao Mengying's proud performance.

[That should've been mine …]

Fang Yuanyuan thought viciously. She didn't even realize that she was the one who kicked him away.

But it wasn't too late. From Xiao Mengying's words, she realized that the b * tch didn't completely "eat" Jiang Chen. Fang Yuanyuan, who realized she had an opportunity, spent a lot of effort and finally obtained Jiang Chen's phone number from her former university class president.

Even the script was written.

She planned to play the pity card and gain Jiang Chen's sympathy. Then she would subtly say that she was still single because she still thought of him.

With a proud smile, Fang Yuanyuan quietly waited for Jiang Chen to "take the bait."

"Um, sorry … You are?"

The voice from the other side of the phone made Fang Yuanyuan furious as she cursed Jiang Chen for being a blockhead. She adjusted her state of mind and spoke in an aggrieved tone.

"I, I'm Fang Yuanyuan … Did you already forget about me?"

Fang Yuanyuan?

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows. Why was this girl calling me? Was she unhappy that he didn't slap her in the face last time?

Because it was annoying, he wanted to hang up the phone. But when he thought about it, a smirk appeared on his face.

What a sin. After spending too much time with that girl, he became a bad person.

"Oh, Fang Yuanyuan, what's up?" Jiang Chen's tone was nonchalant.

Although the best effect was to use a gentle tone, and he was confident in his acting skills, he didn't want to waste too much time with this b * tch. He just wanted to kill time with her.

"Um, are you asleep?" Fang Yuanyuan saw that Jiang Chen responded and was secretly happy.

Seeing that there was a chance, she didn't go straight to the point. Instead, she "cautiously" asked if Jiang Chen was asleep.

"Not yet, if you have something to say, I'm about to sleep." Although he was impatient, his tone didn't reveal any of it.

"About last time … I'm sorry," Fang Yuanyuan said weakly.

"Oh? What are you referring to? "Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah, last time you really came to buy a house. It was my fault, I misunderstood you …" Fang Yuanyuan felt wronged.

Apologize? Jiang Chen wasn't sure either.

If she was apologizing for her arrogant tone, there was nothing unforgivable about it. After all, it wasn't a particularly big deal. But just as Jiang Chen was about to express his forgiveness, Fang Yuanyuan continued.

"Did you know? The moment you appeared, my heart was beating so fast … "

Fang Yuanyuan's words almost made Jiang Chen throw his phone away.

[What? What kind of a play are you playing at this time? Korean drama?

Blergh!]

Jiang Chen suppressed the nausea in his stomach as he resisted the urge to hang up out of curiosity.

"I was scared that you still haven't forgotten me … Do you remember? When I rejected you, you were very sad, and I was secretly watching you … How could I not be sad? It was just that at that time, I couldn't be with you … "Fang Yuanyuan skillfully used her pitiful voice as she" confessed "to Jiang Chen.

"I really, really wanted to say yes, but … but my father didn't allow it. He wanted me to marry his friend's son to fulfill the promise we made when we were young. But I always resisted, and in the end, I realized that actually … actually, the person I love in my heart … "

"It's me, right?" Jiang Chen's tone was dubious.

He couldn't listen anymore.

Why did she have to come up with a righteous excuse to be a slut? If she was honest, Jiang Chen wouldn't feel so disgusted.

"Yes …" Fang Yuanyuan was dumbfounded. Jiang Chen's reaction was out of her expectations. His tone made her feel that something was wrong.

"The script is not bad. Coupled with a heart-wrenching cry, it could probably reach the level of a third-rate Korean drama. But there's one thing I don't understand. How could someone be this shameless? "

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Fang Yuanyuan's face suddenly turned pale.

"You just saw that I have money, then regretted it and wanted to hook up with a rich guy, but you still managed to come up with a bunch of bullsh * t. Do you really think I would believe you? "Jiang Chen stared at the ceiling with a cold gaze as he spoke into the phone emotionlessly.

"Do you think I only did it for your money?" The voice sounded like it was chewing on tears.

[Was it not?] Jiang Chen sneered.

"You rejected me, and I don't blame you. Everyone has the right to nod or shake their head. I only blame myself for not being capable enough. I only blame myself for being too blind to see through people. You kept me at arm's length, came to me for something, and dumped me for nothing. I thought you liked me? I can only blame myself for being too young. "

A mocking smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face. He remembered when he was a freshman, he ran a few kilometers in the rain just to give her an umbrella. He thought it was worth it for her sweet smile.

But it was all an act.

Later, a good friend in the dorm told him that in the year between freshman and sophomore, Fang Yuanyuan already had two boyfriends. She even had an abortion for one of her boyfriends. But Jiang Chen didn't know about it at all. That guy was afraid of affecting his friendship with Jiang Chen, so he didn't say anything. But when he saw Jiang Chen's sad face after being rejected, he couldn't help but say it.

Jiang Chen remembered that he seemed to have laughed at the time.

It was as if in that instant, he didn't think it was a pity anymore.

Who hasn't been bitten by a dog?

"But you still expect me to accept you? To 'protect' you like before? To this, I only have one word for you: idiot! "Jiang Chen abruptly hung up the phone.

Fang Yuanyuan's face turned green. She bit her lips until they turned white. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and humiliation.

[Is this still the idiot?

Impossible. He rejected me … and humiliated me.]

Humiliation, hatred, but no more regret.

Negative emotions began to fill her eyes as if everything was Jiang Chen's fault. Everything was his fault. She had completely forgotten what kind of face she had in the past. She had forgotten what kind of face she had in the headquarters of Wanhua Real Estate …

Suddenly, a crazy thought appeared in her mind.

Fang Yuanyuan's fingers trembled as she opened the contact list. She found a name that made her tremble and her legs turn to jelly.

Perhaps the devil had clouded her rationality. Fang Yuanyuan clenched her teeth and dialed the number.

"Oh? Girl, do you miss your brother? " The flirtatious tone made Fang Yuanyuan feel annoyed, but she didn't dare to show any resistance to this man.

"Pervert … Let me tell you something. I have a classmate who made some money … No, no, his background is clean. I know that guy. He's just a lucky loser …"

Fang Yuanyuan used a sweet voice that disgusted her. When she heard the confirmation from the other side, her face flashed with joy.

After a round of compliments, Fang Yuanyuan hung up the phone. As if she used all the energy in her body, she threw the phone to the side and laid on the cold table.

Liu Shiqiang, the son of Wanghai City's Hongyi Gang's boss Liu Changlong, the so-called underworld prince who forced her to play 5P.

A tear of humiliation rolled down from the corner of Fang Yuanyuan's eyes, but it quickly turned into a vicious expression.

"Jiang Chen … Hehehe, shameless nouveau riche. I want to see, with money, can you beat the underworld?"
