Su Mingyang laughed and said, "Just pour a bucket of cold water on yourself and you'll be fine."

“Uh…” Guan Gu paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, “Never mind, I’ll go first.”

Su Mingyang asked, "Wait, Guan Gu, how's your comic coming along?"

"It's going very smoothly. I've already drawn up to chapter twenty," Guan Gu Shenqi said with a smile.

"That's fine, go ahead." Su Mingyang nodded.

"Well, I'll go first."

night.

Su Mingyang was playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) with Tang Youyou and Zhang Wei.

Guan Gu Shenqi looked down at his phone and walked in.

"You're back." Zhang Wei saw that Guan Gu Shenqi was still looking down at his phone and ignoring him, so he asked, "How was your date tonight? You seemed distracted. Did it all fall apart in the light of day?"

Guan Gu Shenqi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Do I look strange?"

"That's great." After saying that, Zhang Wei took a sip of milk.

Guan Gu Shenqi asked in confusion, "But something feels off. We only chatted for a few minutes before she went to the bathroom. When she came back, she received a phone call saying that her house... was on fire, and asked me to meet her again next time."

Su Mingyang raised an eyebrow: "On fire? That's a veiled rejection."

Guan Gu Shenqi asked, puzzled, "You're saying she made it up? But I saw her answering the phone."

Listen to this.

Tang Youyou suddenly remembered something and exclaimed in realization, "Oh, so that phone call was about you."

Guan Gu Shenqi rushed to Tang Youyou and asked, "Youyou, do you know something?"

"I don't know," Tang Youyou said while shuffling the cards.

Guan Gu Shenqi could tell from her expression that she was hiding something, and said urgently, "Youyou, you must tell me, otherwise I won't be able to sleep!"

Seeing how serious Guan Gu Shenqi was, Tang Youyou sighed and said, "Oh dear, I shouldn't go into too much detail about this."

Guan Gu Shenqi gestured as if committing seppuku and said, "Tell me, or I won't die in peace."

Tang Youyou had no choice but to tell the truth: "Oh, okay, okay, actually I was at the bar just now, and I overheard that girl on the phone. I didn't know this had anything to do with you, but after you guys mentioned it, I remembered."

Su Mingyang urged, "Speak quickly, speak quickly."

Tang Youyou recalled: "It means you're quite handsome, and you're a bit special. You're from Japan, and you even taught yourself Chinese."

Guan Gu Shenqi said happily, "Does she think I've had a tough time?"

Zhang Wei said, "This shows that she saw your talent and hard work."

Su Mingyang poured cold water on the idea, saying, "You're probably overthinking it."

Guan Gu's smile froze.

Tang Youyou continued, "She said your Chinese accent was too strange, and that she didn't even know how your tongue was structured. She felt uncomfortable whenever she heard it. She was worried that if she talked to you for too long, you would influence her, and she wouldn't be able to teach the children anymore. Then she said she would give you to the person she was talking to on the phone. That's what the phone call was about."

Guan Gu's expression changed instantly, and he said with great dejection, "So that's how it is. Her house caught fire later."

Then, she angrily shouted, "Is my accent really that disgusting?"

Tang Youyou comforted him, "Guan Gu, don't be angry. We're actually quite used to it."

"I understand now. You Chinese people often say, 'You get used to it after a while.'" Guan Gu Shenqi said angrily before returning to his room.

"No, Guan Gu..." Tang Youyou wanted to call out to Guan Gu Shenqi, but he completely ignored her.

The three were silent for a moment.

Su Mingyang said, "He was just looked down upon by netizens, so he must be in a bad mood. Let him calm down on his own."

"That's all we can do now," Tang Youyou sighed.

Zhang Wei exclaimed, "I never imagined that meeting someone online could lead to this kind of death! This is clearly a suicide pact!"

Su Mingyang: "..."

Tang Youyou: "..."

the next day.

bar.

Su Mingyang, Hu Yifei, Zeng Xiaoxian, Lü Ziqiao, and Zhang Wei got together to chat when they had nothing to do.

Sipping her drink, Hu Yifei asked, "Mingyang, I heard from Wanyu that the game rights to your novel 'Zhu Xian Sword' have been sold?"

"Yes." Su Mingyang nodded.

Zeng Xiaoxian nudged Su Mingyang with his shoulder and asked with interest, "Tell us, how much did you sell it for? Did you make several million again?"

Hu Yifei was also very curious about this, as Lin Wanyu had not told her this before, so she listened intently.

Su Mingyang laughed and said, "Would you believe me if I said I didn't receive a single penny?"

Lu Ziqiao raised an eyebrow and said, "Of course we don't believe that. Mingyang, tell us the truth. Don't worry, I won't ask you for money."

"Neither will we."

Zhang Wei and others expressed their opinions.

"You're overthinking it. Why would I be afraid of you borrowing money?" Su Mingyang smiled helplessly. "I'm telling the truth. I really didn't receive a single penny. The game company originally wanted to pay six million for the copyright, but I didn't take it. Instead, I chose to use the six million as an investment in game development. I'll take a share of the profits from the game's sales later."

"Six million invested? There must be a lot of risk involved," Zeng Xiaoxian asked, frowning.

Su Mingyang shrugged: "What do you think? If there's no risk, can it even be called an investment?"

Lu Ziqiao asked, "Won't this six million go down the drain?"

"That's hard to say," Su Mingyang said.

Zhang Wei slapped his thigh and said, "Six million! I never knew I could earn that much money in my entire life."

“Zhang Wei, be more confident. Don’t even mention you, I can’t earn that much,” Zeng Xiaoxian said.

Seeing Su Mingyang's nonchalant expression, Lu Ziqiao gave him a thumbs up: "Mingyang, you really are the type. But speaking of which, instead of investing in the game, why don't you invest in me?"

After saying that, Lü Ziqiao winked at Su Mingyang.

Su Mingyang hadn't spoken yet.

Hu Yifei rolled her eyes at him: "Invest in you? Invest in you to deceive girls' feelings?"

“Exactly,” Zeng Xiaoxian agreed.

Lu Ziqiao's lips twitched slightly.

Su Mingyang found it somewhat amusing.

At this moment.

Tang Youyou ran over excitedly, smiling, "I have a good friend to tell everyone!"

"What good news?" everyone asked curiously.

Tang Youyou said mysteriously, "Hehe, I just went downstairs to go to the supermarket, and guess what I saw in the elevator?"

Lu Ziqiao thought for a moment and said, "Did you see someone urinating in the elevator?"

"..."

"Get lost!" Tang Youyou cursed, throwing a cushion at Lu Ziqiao as she did so. "What the hell is in your head?!"

Hu Yifei urged, "Youyou, just pretend he doesn't exist. Quickly tell us what you saw in the elevator."

Tang Youyou ignored Lu Ziqiao and her face lit up with an excited smile as she told everyone, "I met an incredibly handsome guy in the elevator."

"What kind of handsome guy?" Hu Yifei's interest was immediately piqued.

Zeng Xiaoxian interjected, "Is he as handsome as me?"

As he spoke, he smoothed his hair.

Tang Youyou glanced at him and almost choked on her food.

Su Mingyang was also speechless and joked, "Teacher Zeng, you shouldn't join in the fun. You might be able to compete in terms of being shameless, but when it comes to being handsome, you have to step aside."

"Seriously? Mingyang, that's really hurtful to hear you say that," Zeng Xiaoxian said with a bitter face.

Lu Ziqiao said, "Mingyang is absolutely right. Teacher Zeng, stop being so narcissistic. When it comes to being handsome, I am the undisputed number one in the apartment."

"You two get out of my way." Hu Yifei couldn't stand their narcissism.

“I’m telling the truth,” Lu Ziqiao said.

"Truth my foot! Who gave you the title of 'Apartment King'? Mingyang, Guangu, and Zhang Wei haven't said a word yet," Tang Youyou said, pouting.

“Exactly.” Zhang Wei straightened his posture.
