After being reborn, the school beauty's entire family knelt down to repent.

"Finally, there's been progress."

This email gave Chen Ming a great deal of encouragement.

He rekindled his fighting spirit and decided to continue improving the game, with plans to promote it globally.

He printed out Mark's email and pasted it next to his computer screen to motivate himself.

"Mark, thank you! I will definitely succeed!"

Chen Ming said to the email on the screen, feeling very touched.

He began to study game development techniques more diligently and continuously improved the game.

He even contacted some professional translators to translate the game into multiple languages.

Chen Ming read Mark's email several times, his excitement lingering. The email was like a shot of adrenaline, revitalizing his nearly depleted creative passion.

"Finally! We've finally succeeded! The internet and gaming industries will be incredibly profitable in the future."

Chen Ming excitedly waved his fist, almost knocking over the noodles on the table.

"Once the game becomes popular, we'll add all the mainstream languages!"

Chen Ming typed code while thinking to himself with a sense of satisfaction.

Just as he was working himself to the bone, Liu Jiali called.

"Hey, Chen Ming, I have great news for you! Someone wants to join your game team!" Liu Jiali's voice sounded excited.

"That's great!"

Chen Ming also got excited. Although he was the only one in the so-called "team" at the moment, the fact that someone was willing to join meant that his game was being recognized!

"The other person is a programmer, and he's very skilled. I've arranged to meet him at your internet cafe at 10 a.m. tomorrow."

Liu Jiali said.

"No problem!" Chen Ming readily agreed.

The next morning, Chen Ming arrived at the internet cafe early and deliberately chose a quiet spot by the window to wait for the mysterious programmer.

He felt both excited and apprehensive.

What excites me is that I will finally have teammates, and I won't be so lonely developing games anymore.

What worries me is, what if the other person is difficult to get along with? What if they don't like my game?

Just after ten o'clock, a tall, thin young man wearing black-rimmed glasses walked over.

He was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, and carrying a bulging backpack, looking like a student.

"Hello, are you Chen Ming? I'm Wang Chao, I was introduced by reporter Liu."

The young man walked up to Chen Ming and said somewhat shyly.

"Hello, Wang Chao, please sit down." Chen Ming quickly stood up and invited him to sit down.

After Wang Chao sat down, he took out a laptop from his backpack, turned it on, and the screen displayed the game interface of "Flappy Bird".

“I’ve already played your game. It’s very creative and challenging. I think it has the potential to become a hit.”

Wang Chao pushed up his glasses and said seriously.

"Really? You also think it will be a hit?" Chen Ming asked in surprise.

"Of course, although it looks rather rudimentary now, the core gameplay is very interesting. As long as it's improved and some new content is added, it will definitely attract many players," Wang Chao said confidently.

"That's great! That's what I was thinking too!" Chen Ming was so excited he almost jumped up.

The two hit it off as they talked and quickly reached a consensus to develop "Flappy Bird" together.

"By the way, Wang Chao, why did you decide to join my team?" Chen Ming asked curiously.

Wang Chao smiled and said, "Actually, I've been paying attention to independent game development and have been looking for a suitable team to join me."

"After seeing Reporter Liu's report, I thought your game was very interesting, and you are also a very thoughtful person, so I wanted to give it a try."

"I see, thank you so much!" Chen Ming said sincerely.

Over the next few days, Chen Ming and Wang Chao worked together to make numerous improvements to the game.

Wang Chao's skills are indeed impressive. He not only optimized the game's performance but also added several new features, such as leaderboards, an achievement system, and more obstacle types.

As the game continues to improve, Chen Ming has developed a general plan for the future of the industry.

Chen Ming and Wang Chao were so engrossed in developing the game that they almost forgot about time.

He spends every day in internet cafes debugging code, testing games, and fixing bugs, and he enjoys it immensely.

Meanwhile, Zhao Rou's life became increasingly difficult.

Dexin, the rich second-generation who used to shower her with sweet words and spend lavishly, seems to have become a completely different person because of what happened before.

He began to mock her, criticize her clothes, and even lay hands on her.

"Look at you, dressed so tacky, how dare you go out with me?"

Dexin looked Zhao Rou up and down with disdain. "You think you've become a phoenix just because you've hooked up with me? Don't dream about it!"

Zhao Rou fought back tears and explained in a low voice, "Dexin, I don't have money to buy new clothes lately..."

"No money? Didn't you swindle a large sum of money from Chen Ming?"

Dexin grabbed Zhao Rou's wrist and squeezed it hard. "Where's the money? Where did it all go? And where did the money I gave you go?"

Zhao Rou winced in pain. How could she have cheated Chen Ming out of a large sum of money? She had only borrowed 50,000 yuan, and she had always intended to pay it back.

"Dexin, you're hurting me..." Zhao Rou tried to break free from his grasp. "I didn't cheat Chen Ming out of his money, I just borrowed it..."

"Borrow? Do you think I'm stupid? Who would lend money to a woman like you?"

Dexin abruptly shook off Zhao Rou's hand, causing her to stumble and nearly fall to the ground.

"I'm warning you, get your money back right now, or else..."

Dexin's eyes were full of threat, "Then don't blame me for being impolite!"

After saying that, Dexin left without looking back.

Zhao Rou collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

She wandered aimlessly through the streets, like a lost soul.

Suddenly, she saw Dexin chatting and laughing with a young and beautiful girl.

The girl was dressed in designer clothes and wore a sparkling diamond ring; she was clearly a wealthy heiress.

Zhao Rou's heart sank to the bottom.

She finally realized that Dexin was just playing around with her and he didn't take her seriously at all.

She was just a toy for him to pass the time, and once he got tired of her, she would be discarded without mercy.

She couldn't hold back any longer, rushed forward, and pounded on the car window.

"Dexin! Come out here!" Zhao Rou shouted hysterically, "Why are you doing this to me?"

Dexin was startled by the sudden commotion. When he saw Zhao Rou, his face instantly turned gloomy.

"Are you crazy? What are you doing here?" Dexin snapped impatiently.

"I'm asking you, why did you do this to me?" Zhao Rou cried, tears streaming down her face. "Why did you lie to me?"
