Red Wen, born in the 00s: Rectifying the King's Canyon

Gu Lin'an opened the backend to check his income and saw rows of eye-catching black text.

"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands".

"My goodness, seven hundred thousand!" Gu Lin'an exclaimed.

He knew he would make a lot of money tonight, but he didn't expect to make so much. The two accounts combined totaled a full 700,000.

"Damn it, I'm a rich man now. From now on, when I eat grilled cold noodles, I'll add an extra starch sausage, and when I eat instant noodles, I'll add two extra boiled eggs. Add as much as you want, so that people who don't know will think I can't afford it." Gu Lin'an had the face of a nouveau riche.

Charlie wriggled happily into Gu Lin'an's arms, and Gu Lin'an, for once, patted his head.

"You deserve credit too. Tomorrow I'll add water and boil an egg for you. I'll eat the yolk and you can have the white. Isn't that fair?"

As if he understood Gu Lin'an's words, a hint of disdain appeared in Charlie's eyes.

"What are you looking at? What kind of eyes do you have? Dogs eat egg yolks and have high cholesterol. I'm doing this for your health, you know?"

“If you get sick, I’ll be the one who’s worried about the money.” Gu Lin’an tapped Charlie on the forehead.

Gu Lin'an was already planning how to spend this windfall.

"First, we'll move to a new rental apartment, then we'll get a new live streaming equipment, and we'll put the old one in the recycling center."

"Buy a few clothes, and the rest of the money..."

Gu Lin'an thought about it and realized that as someone who had been single for eighteen years, his expenses didn't seem to be that high. Apart from food, clothing, housing, and transportation, he didn't spend much money each month.

“Then I’ll deposit it in the bank. I’ll deposit it for a hundred years!” Gu Lin’an said through gritted teeth.

After checking the system backend, Gu Lin'an saw that his anger level was full and said, "System lottery."

【Ding】

[Host's rage meter is full. Lottery draw to begin.]

The lucky wheel started spinning and eventually came to a slow stop.

[Ding, congratulations host, you have acquired an ability. You cannot do this, sir.]

"You're getting closer and closer?" Gu Lin'an murmured.

"What kind of weird abilities did the system unlock today?" Gu Lin'an complained.

[No, sir: When the host obtains a female character, all attributes will increase by 5% when threatened.]

Gu Lin'an was a little frustrated. He was playing the top lane, and there weren't many female heroes in the top lane.

Mi Yue is one example, but this hero is too weak and rarely has a chance to appear in the KPL.

This entry is clearly related to the mid lane, so why can't it include something about the top lane?

This time, plus the last time I was right about people, one is a marksman and the other is a mage. Does this mean I'm going to develop in all aspects from now on?

Gu Lin'an stretched and realized he had forgotten to do something.

So I opened Weibo and started writing a short essay.

I'm really angry today. It was my first time playing PvP, and I was matched with a dog (a derogatory term for a player who is weak and incompetent), and I still didn't win.

My resolve was thwarted, and my mind was filled with wild thoughts.

I think I'm probably experiencing emo. After the live stream ended, I lay in bed unable to sleep, and looking at the record of everyone's donations, my brow furrowed for no reason.

These data are all subtly telling me that people don't like me.

What exactly went wrong?

I thought of that dog; the way it guarded its food reminded me of someone I knew—Qinglong.

As I've said before, I admire Qinglong greatly, and my recent efforts to imitate Qinglong's behavior are all to make everyone like me.

[For this, I did many heinous things, such as sabotaging Cheng Yaojin just to greedily farm a wave of minions for myself.]

Today, I've realized something.

I think I haven't quite grasped the essence of it yet. Since Qinglong is playing a match tomorrow, I plan to study it properly. I hope everyone will come and support me.

Gu Lin'an wrote the short essay smoothly and effortlessly, checked it again, nodded, and was very satisfied with his work.

Click send the next second.

Sure, a short essay every day.

When you retired from the literary world, I was the first to disagree.

Seeing a dog reminds me of the Azure Dragon? Now the Azure Dragon is openly displaying its power in the Long Night Yin Yang, haha, it's interesting and I love watching it.

I didn't watch it for nothing, I'm giving you a thumbs up.

[Actually, I'm quite looking forward to it. It was really funny when he dissed Qinglong during his long night gaming stream. If he directly comments on Qinglong's gameplay, it won't be as entertaining.]

[Hey, you little brat, are you some kind of clingy pest, trying to latch onto my brother?]

……

This short essay attracted countless views and shares as soon as it was published, with over 10,000 shares in just one minute.

In the HG team's training room, Qinglong looked at Xiaotian with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Tian's expression was very subtle. He looked at his phone, wanting to laugh but holding it in, not letting himself laugh out loud.

The fact that his gaze kept fixed on him made Qinglong very uncomfortable.

Qinglong asked, "Xiaotian, what are you looking at?"

"No, it's nothing." Xiao Tian quickly hid his phone behind his back when he saw Qinglong approaching.

This action only fueled Qinglong's curiosity, and he said in a deep voice, "Give it to me, let me see!"

Under the pressure of the Azure Dragon, Xiao Tian reluctantly handed over his phone.

"Brother Long, it's all a misunderstanding. I just stumbled upon it by accident," Xiao Tian said with an embarrassed smile.

When Qinglong opened Xiaotian's phone and saw Gu Lin'an's short essay, he immediately blushed.

"Damn it, Gu Lin'an has some nerve to talk back to me like that." Qinglong has been busy with training matches these past few days and hasn't been paying much attention to outside news. He didn't expect Gu Lin'an to be talking about him online.

Seeing that Qinglong was angry, Xiaotian explained again, "Brother Long, I really just stumbled upon it by accident."

After finishing his sentence, he saw Qinglong flip up and discover Gu Lin'an's first short essay.

Xiao Tian thought to himself, "Oh no, they've found out I've been following Gu Lin'an."

"Alright, Gu Lin'an is a kid who never learns from his mistakes. He was just suspended, and now he's doing this to me again. Just wait and see."

Qinglong threw Xiaotian's phone at him, then stormed off, disappearing without a trace.

After leaving the training room, Qinglong called Gu Lin'an, and the call was answered quickly.

Gu Lin'an was just about to go to sleep when the phone rang. When he saw it was Qinglong, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Gu Lin'an, what do you mean? Delete all those posts on Weibo right now, or you'll regret it," Qinglong threatened through gritted teeth.

Gu Lin'an raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, "Isn't this my idol, Qinglong? I've missed you terribly these past few days."

"Stop trying to get close to me, or I'll sue you! You'll be facing a lawsuit."

"Make me go to court?" Gu Lin'an felt that Qinglong was thinking too simply, without even considering who was standing behind him.

It's a musical note!

He's currently a popular live streamer, and Gu Lin'an didn't use any offensive words related to Qinglong when he posted his essay, so where can he sue him?

"Oh, is that what you're talking about? I thought you were going to say something else. If you want to sue, then go ahead and sue." After saying that, Gu Lin'an hung up the phone.

"Fine, fine, you dare hang up on me? You'll regret this!"

After that, Qinglong called the coach.

"Coach, you saw Gu Lin'an's long essay online, right? I'm going to sue him and make sure he can't play on the music platform!" Qinglong said angrily.

After a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, the coach comforted him, "Qinglong, why don't you just bear with it?"

Qinglong thought he had misheard.

Should I just bear with it?
