Chapter 54: Innocent Online Game Master (Part 30)
Li Haorui stared at his laptop screen in complete disbelief. His gaze was about to bore a hole right through the screen.
That was… several hundred thousand yuan!
Even though his family was quite well-to-do, his expenses merely amounted to several thousand yuan a month. If he saved a bit, he could afford to buy some luxury items once in a while.
However, if he were to spend several hundred thousand yuan all at once just to buy roses for a girl in the game, he’d have to be insane.
How rich was S?
He was able to afford gifting a few roses in the game with his spending power. However, if he were to apply this spending power to S, the other party would probably receive several hundred thousand yuan every month…
That was why S could spend so extravagantly.
Li Haorui couldn’t help but clench his fists.
Without a doubt, he had once again lost to him.
In reality, what was most important weren’t looks and qualifications. Rather, it was wealth and status.
Fortunately, his message had been buried by countless other comments in the game. Provoking such a wealthy and powerful person was not a good idea.
This man… hadn’t revealed anything about himself. Yet, he had completely crushed Li Haori.
Li Haorui glowered at the screen with wrath and loathing.
In his heart, he spitefully thought to himself that to be such a wealthy man, S had to be an old man in real life. And S insisted on not revealing his photo… That would mean that he was ugly and perhaps a lewd middle-aged lecher. At the thought of that, he felt better.
All S had was money. On the other hand, he was young, good-looking, and smart. In the future, he would also be as rich as S and to top it all off, he was much more handsome.
Li Haorui gritted his teeth and was about to exit the game when a private message appeared.
In the private chat, Hera’s Apple typed, ‘Senior, S is too much. He is using his age to bully you. Nobody knows who Meowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeow really is… But since she knows S, she could also be an old lady. Senior, you shouldn’t be bullied for her sake.’
She sounded so gentle and every word resonated with Li Haorui’s emotions.She didn’t harp on how handsome S was and instead, she was putting S down.That made Li Haorui feel better. Additionally she was a top student, and a beautiful girl to boot.
Li Haorui had no idea what Meowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeow looked like. But he knew what Lin Xinxin looked like. Besides, for Meowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeow to be associated with S, she had to be an old woman.
Perhaps, she was a young lady who had her eyes set on marrying a rich guy. That would explain why S spent so recklessly for her.
Li Haorui soothed his anger and he replied to Lin Xinxin.
In the private chat, A Boat As Light As a Leaf replied, ‘It’s fine.’
In reality, he wasn’t fine. But how could he gossip and speak badly about S with a pretty girl? That would reflect how petty he was.
Lin Xinxin read his response and continued to comfort him as she bit her lips.
She was, after all, a girl and regardless of what S looked like in real life, her heart nevertheless raced wildly when S had domineeringly warned others to stay away from what belonged to him. Then he generously bought roses to win the smile of the girl he liked.
However, Lin Xinxin had the same thoughts as Li Haorui. Since S was so rich, he had to be old and possibly ugly. He couldn’t possibly have the potential like Li Haorui, who possessed both intelligence and looks. He would likely be as wealthy as S in the future.
After weighing both possibilities, she had taken the initiative to comfort Li Haorui while feeling jealous and indignant.
