Live fortune telling: Sending a top star to prison right from the start.

"Starting today's second divination, a carnival application is needed."

A white cloud sends off 10 carnivals.

"Hello, Sister Lu, my name is Yun Zheng." The boy's clear voice rang out.

[Maruko: Aaaaaaah, I'm in my prime at Teen University!]

Thick taro milk tea: Absolutely my cup of tea!

[Daytime Asks Night: Reserved and Steady, My Little Girls]

Looking at the comments on the screen, Yun Zheng felt a little embarrassed, and his face turned slightly red.

He was a fourth-year male college student who had become a fan of Lu Rou since she started her live streams. He had only intended to send her a gift and hadn't planned to connect with her online.

However, Lu Rou had already sent him a voice chat request, so he accepted it and then went on mic.

"I just wanted to treat Sister Lu to a carnival, I didn't think about anything else, so why don't we give the opportunity to someone else?"

Yunzheng has no worries about food and drink, a harmonious family, no current romantic needs, and his career is steadily rising, so there's really nothing to calculate.

[Fragile Heart: Poverty truly limits my imagination]

[Four thousand working people: We work ourselves to death for such a small salary. What's wrong with one more rich person like me in the world?]

Lu Rou gracefully picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and nodded slightly in appreciation. The tea was made from the roots of a deep marsh plant.

Shen Ze had been observing Lu Rou's expression, and seeing her brows relax, he couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.

His tea-making skills are passable; at least they can be put to some use.

Lu Rou put down her teacup and asked, "Your new startup project should be almost finished, right?"

Yun Zheng was still surprised. He quickly replied, "Sister Lu is really amazing. You guessed it before I even said anything."

That's right. Now, all that's left is to adjust the last bit of internal testing data before it can be officially launched and released to the market.

Lu Rou glanced at her watch: "Time is of the essence. You only have one hour left. Hurry up and go to the company."

Fukasawa looked puzzled and asked, "Huh? Why?"

Lu Rou looked helpless. This kid was good in every way, except he wasn't good at recognizing people. He was sold out and still counted the money for the seller.

"Your good brother plans to steal the results of this project and then take the opportunity to run away."

Having witnessed Lu Rou's abilities, Yun Zheng had no doubt about her capabilities.

But upon hearing this, he was struck dumb, his eyes widening in disbelief: "How could this be? Lu Meng is my brother who grew up with me since childhood. We have such a deep bond. Why would he do such a thing?"

Lu Rou said firmly, "That's the truth. Go to the company right now and catch him red-handed."

This Journey to the West project is built using Unreal Engine 5, boasting outstanding graphics and visual effects, and incorporating many new game technologies, such as a new lighting system, dynamic weather, and panoramic ray tracing.

It is a PC game that he has devoted four years to creating. It is the result of his and his team's hard work. We cannot let the efforts of the entire team go to waste because of one person's mistake.

Currently in the internal testing phase, Lu Meng expressed great interest in his project and wanted to see it for himself. Since they were childhood friends and he knew him well, he agreed to Lu Meng's request several times to check on the progress.

This was no small matter, so Yun Zheng didn't hesitate any longer. He quickly grabbed his car keys, got out of the car in a hurry, and headed to the company as fast as he could.

Throughout the journey, he felt incredibly conflicted, hoping it was just a misunderstanding while simultaneously worrying that something truly terrible might actually happen.

Twenty minutes later, Yun arrived at the company, where bodyguards were already in place.

[Jasmine Milk White: Live Version Coming Soon]

[Pink Tulip: Sister Lu, without you, who can provide such a wonderful live stream?]

[Luosifen Hot Pot: Exciting!]

Moonlight streamed through the window, casting a pale silver glow into the cold, quiet office.

Holding a flashlight, Lü Mengzheng nervously and anxiously searched the room, muttering to himself.

"Ha, Yunzheng, once I find him, let's see how you'll still be so arrogant and smug in front of me!"

As time ticked by, Lü Meng's gaze was firmly drawn to the safe placed at the top of the room.

Before this, Lü Meng had thoroughly searched every corner of the place, big and small, but to no avail.

Something so important must have been hidden in that safe.

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace and walked towards the safe.

Meanwhile, Yun Zheng, accompanied by a group of well-trained bodyguards, stormed into the company building.

As their footsteps echoed through the corridor, the once pitch-black corridor was gradually illuminated by lights, and darkness was instantly replaced by light.

The closer Yun Zheng got to his office, the heavier his mood became.

When he finally arrived at the office door, his eyes, like those of a hawk, were fixed on the figure in the corner.

Lu Meng was looking down, intently fiddling with the tools in his hands, trying to open the safe.

Upon seeing this, Yun Zheng's eyes flashed with a chilling glint, and he roared furiously, "Lu Meng!"

Upon hearing Yun Zheng's roar, Lü Meng trembled and instinctively raised his head.

However, when he saw Yun Zheng standing at the door and his group of burly bodyguards, a deep sense of resentment and regret involuntarily showed in his eyes.

He was so close, he was about to successfully open the safe and get what he wanted!

Yun Zheng stared coldly at Lü Meng, and slightly raised his hand in a gesturing gesture.

Immediately afterwards, the group of bodyguards surged forward like a tidal wave, quickly tackled Lü Meng to the ground, and held him down firmly.

The lead bodyguard glared at Lü Meng and shouted, "Behave yourself!"

Yun Zheng slowly walked up to Lü Meng, who was pinned to the ground and unable to move, looked down at him, and questioned him sharply.

"Lu Meng, why did you do this? Aren't we good brothers?"

Lu Meng said with a face full of resentment, "The victor is king, the loser is villain. I admit defeat."

Yunzheng, every single moment of those days when we called each other brothers was a humiliation for me.

I was like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy, trying my best to please you.

Just because you have a privileged background, I have to grovel and fawn over you.

On what grounds? On what grounds is this?

Yun Zheng was shocked: "So in your eyes, I am so worthless."

Lü Meng, I have never wronged you, but now it seems I was blind and misjudged you.

From this day forward, we'll go our separate ways. You go your own way, and I'll go mine. We'll leave each other alone.

Lu Meng sneered: "That was nothing but your charity. Do you really think I would care about it?"

"To be honest, the whole thing about saving you was a carefully orchestrated scam, designed to make you feel guilty towards me."

Yun Zhengwen's face was ashen as he waved slightly at the bodyguard beside him.

He understood immediately and escorted Lü Meng to the police station.

[Luosifen Hot Pot: A Sigh]

Maruko: I'm just so jealous!

[Four thousand working people: I don't mind at all, please give me some charity!]

[The freeloader: Begging for alms +1]

"I'm sorry for making a fool of myself in front of everyone. Thank you, Sister Lu. I have something to take care of, so I'll end the broadcast now. Bye-bye, Sister Lu, bye-bye, my fans."

……

A month later, Yunzheng's PC game Black Myth: Wukong was successfully launched, sparking widespread discussion on major platforms both at home and abroad, generating immense popularity, and was even reposted by Huatai.

This PC game was dubbed "China's first AAA game" by the media. Within three days of its release, it sold over 10 million copies across all platforms, breaking the historical record for Chinese games.

It won the 2024 Golden Joystick Awards for Game of the Year and Best Visual Design.
