Chapter 144: Is It Really That Fierce?

In the virtual world of the internet, it is ironically the best place to pour out one's heart.

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: I ran into a total pervert today. He’s incredibly cruel, merciless, and completely unreasonable...

Half a minute passed.

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: ...

Shi Qingqing pondered what those ellipses were supposed to mean. Could it be that he didn't believe her?

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: Great God, don't disbelieve me. This perverted guy has countless bodyguards and servants at his beck and call, yet he insisted on dragging me in to be his servant. Tell me, isn't that perverted? Is there something wrong with his head?

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: Perhaps there’s another reason?

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: It’s purely the immature revenge of a spoiled child. I wouldn't mind being a servant if it meant getting paid, and I have my own reasons for getting close to him, so I endured it. But he actually forbids me from interacting with other men! Is that not totally twisted?

This time, the Great God replied quickly.

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: What reason do you have for getting close to him?

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: It's about a mobile phone... Never mind that. Anyway, he’s just too much of a freak, and I don't know how to deal with him anymore. I'm so distressed!

...

At the Golden Emperor International, in a luxurious top-floor apartment.

Zhan Su held his laptop, leaning back comfortably on the sofa, his expression cold and brooding.

"A mobile phone? Could it be because of the phone I gave her? Is she thanking me?"

It didn't seem quite right, though...

Shi Qingqing saw that the Great God had stopped replying, and just then, the quest monsters respawned. She nimbly snatched the target and successfully finished it off.

A notification for a friend message popped up again.

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: Just interact with him as you normally would.

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: That’s easy for you to say, Great God! I had an argument with him today and wiped my snot and tears all over his clothes. Thinking about it now, I’m full of regret. I’m terrified he’s going to have me silenced...

...

On his end, Zhan Su shifted his posture, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

You weren't so timid when you were wiping your snot on me, were you?

And now you're afraid?

His fingers didn't stop typing.

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: Is he really that fierce?

On her side, the moment Shi Qingqing saw the word "fierce," she had endless complaints to pour out.

Zhan Su was far more than just "fierce"!

He was super-duper fierce, okay?

It was only because she was bolder than most people that she had managed to survive under his pressure until now.

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: "Fierce" doesn't even cover it—it's tyranny! Have you ever seen a tyrant from ancient times? He’s even more terrifying than that. Wuu wuu wuu...

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: ...

Shi Qingqing continued her indictment.

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: The part I can't understand most is how someone as brutal as him could have a fiancée? I don't know how that fiancée of his has survived this long; she must be so brave!

[Private Chat] Killing Intent: A fiancée? Are you jealous?

[Private Chat] Easy to Know, Hard to Do: Great God! What kind of joke is that? Me, jealous? Why would I like a tyrant? Besides, I’m a guy, and I already have someone I like!

Yes, yes, can't expose my gender.

I've registered as male on all my boosting profiles; people don't trust female boosters. They aren't as popular as male boosters.

...

On Zhan Su’s computer screen, his character looked dashing and handsome, dressed in flowing white robes that shimmered with a seven-colored, glazed luster.

A dragon-shaped spirit treasure drifted and coiled around him.

Wherever he walked, soft light trailed in his wake, looking exceptionally elegant.

The character was currently idling in his home base, alone.

A guy? That part must be a lie!

And that other part—about having someone he likes?

Is that true or false?
