Chapter 6 Do Not Disturb, I'm Depressed
Ye Mingqiu left the conference room with mixed feelings. He immediately changed his contact avatar to a suited Tom Cat smoking with his head tilted back, and also changed his personal signature to: "Life is not worth it."

Then, he spent a full twenty yuan to buy an energy booster that he wouldn't normally buy.

It's shaped a bit like a cigarette stick, but it's actually a vaping device that stimulates mental growth. It's not cost-effective, but it has a variety of flavors and a classy feel to it, so it has a considerable market.

He was taking a stimulant, feeling the different stimuli his mind received in various ways, and he felt melancholy, like a pitiful person abandoned and hurt by the world.

Not long after, Chen Ran arrived at the rooftop. He looked at Ye Mingqiu, who was standing alone at the edge of the rooftop, inhaling energy stimulants, and tentatively asked, "What's wrong? Did you get dumped by a rich woman?"

"Emotions are meaningless; they only hinder me from becoming stronger," Ye Mingqiu replied.

"Looks like he really got dumped."

Chen Ran murmured, patted his shoulder helplessly, and looked at him with sympathy. She didn't say anything, but accompanied him to look at the school scenery and feel the sadness and desolation of the wind blowing from above.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, a notification sound rang out; it was Ye Mingqiu's communicator, and both of their attention were drawn to the sound.

"Received transfer, 200,000 yuan."

Chen Ran was stunned. He stared blankly at Ye Mingqiu beside him, his mouth wide open, raising his hand to point silently at the other person, wanting to speak, but unable to say anything.

Holy crap, there's a dog here!

There is a dog!
"No, it's not what you think."

Ye Mingqiu quickly explained.

But Chen Ran ignored him, turned around and ran away, giving him a fierce glare before she left.

It's chilly outside, and I was just trying to keep you company in the breeze, worried you might get depressed. But instead, you give me a notification that 200,000 yuan has been transferred, which has had a devastating impact on my mental state. Are you even human?
Betrayal! Blatant betrayal!
"Ugh!"

Ye Mingqiu was devastated.

He turned on his communicator, and what greeted him was a transfer of 200,000 yuan from Tang Ruobing. His expression gradually became more and more distorted and painful.

Kiriame: Here's your fee for playing with me!
Yuki: Get out!

Ye Mingqiu looked at the unfamiliar tone and couldn't stop the tears from flowing. The girl he loved most was so perfect. She was witty, cute and kind. How could she say such hurtful things?
why?
Why is this happening?

The problem isn't with me, it's with the world!
He stood on the rooftop, the cold wind whipping against his face, unable to accept that his junior, whom he had once cherished, had become like that.

Is it possible to win back his online junior?
Yes, brothers, yes, yes!
This world is ultimately a psionic revival world where strength reigns supreme. As long as he keeps getting stronger and has enough power, he can force Tang Ruobing to change her attitude towards him and get everything he originally wanted.

Decided!
I need to keep getting stronger, then win over Tang Ruobing, force her to continue chatting and talking to me online in the same way she used to, and find my original cute junior schoolmate again!

What a magnificent and grand goal!
genius!

After making up his mind, Ye Mingqiu immediately put it into action. He took out his communicator and sent a message to Tang Ruobing without hesitation.

Payment received successfully

Ye Mingqiu: Can you give me a plan to improve my skills?

Kiriame: Die! Ye Mingqiu: Tang Ruobing, you didn't want people to know about your chat history with other people, did you?
Yuki: Climb!

Ye Mingqiu: Good boy.

Yuki: Get out!

Ye Mingqiu frowned slightly as he looked at the conversation on the screen. It seemed that it was time to use that move. He really didn't want to use it unless absolutely necessary.

Ugh!
Based on his online understanding of her, he realized that her continued rant after threatening to expose their chat logs wasn't because she wasn't afraid of being exposed, but because she was certain she wouldn't actually do it. And that was indeed the case; Ye Mingqiu valued his chat logs with Kiriame very much and certainly wouldn't easily release them.

If he actually sends it out, that guy will be absolutely devastated and heartbroken. That's just my gut feeling.

However, his threat was not entirely ineffective. At least, Tang Ruobing had changed his wording from "die" to "crawl," a huge difference in the effectiveness of the two threats, which was a sign of success.

We absolutely cannot give up so easily!
Ye Mingqiu: Heh, you don't want your mom to know you've spent hundreds of thousands on in-game purchases, do you?
Kiriame: You bastard!
Ye Mingqiu: Thank you.

Kazuya: Ahhh!

After a brief bout of impotent rage, Tang Ruobing still sent over a guide on how to spend money in the game, outlining various methods to boost attributes, which methods cannot be used in combination and what harm they would cause, and which items are suitable to be used together and why they are effective.

Excellent! A very good guide!

With 200,000 yuan in hand, Ye Mingqiu felt full of energy, as if he had inexhaustible strength. He could even consider spending 200,000 yuan to buy life supplements and see if he could unlock his fourth talent and further enhance his strength.

However, he still gave up. While the value of acquiring a talent was indeed high, the problem was that his current base attributes were too low, and the efficiency of improving his attributes by acquiring a talent was not as good as simply increasing his attributes.

Next, I will convert as many 200,000 as possible into attributes as quickly as possible, catch up with and surpass Tang Ruobing, and reclaim my Kiriame.

For the sake of my junior!

For the sake of my junior!

In the class group chat, the story about Ye Mingqiu was going viral, but Chen Ran remained principled and didn't reveal the 200,000 yuan. After all, the rumors circulating in the group were just that—rumors—and there was no substantial evidence.

But if he claims to have evidence to definitively prove these claims, then Ye Mingqiu might face some troublesome situations.

Good brothers should scold you when they need to, and help you when it matters. You should never be so thoughtless as to reveal important information at a critical moment, thereby putting the other party in a disadvantageous situation.

"No, I have to check on the rich woman my son and grandson are dating. Is there any negative comment? It would be terrible if something happened to her." Chen Ran rushed to the forefront of gossip, quickly searching online for all information about Tang Ruobing, looking for every little clue.

He didn't know how much of it was to help his grandson and how much was just out of curiosity, but that wasn't important. What mattered was that he was looking for information, and if he could find any juicy gossip, he would share it.

"Eh?"

There really is news about her online!

Chen Ran suddenly found a clue: someone had posted a message on the forum criticizing Tang Ruobing, and there were many similar comments below.

Let me see what's going on!
