Chapter 38 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚
After entering the game, Tang Zihao’s pursuit of Tang Linyi was not smooth, and because of this simple love, the latter half of his life was very miserable. Tang Linyi was a great God in the game. His level had already reached the top level of the game, and he had also established a sect called Guiyun Sect. In order to pursue Tang Linyi, after Tang Zihao entered the game, he concealed his identity and created a female character to enter the sect.
Tang Dahai doted on him, and the amount of allowance Tang Zihao regularly got was not a small amount. With his constant spending, he became a famous God player in the game in half a year. In order to attract the attention of Tang Linyi, Tang Zihao also spent money to refine his alchemy skills and became the top alchemist in the game to supply the sect with pills and to be a healer for the sect. The reason Tang Zihao did all these things was to cultivate feelings with Tang Linyi in this virtual online world and to make up for his forever unrequited secret love in the real world.
But what Tang Zihao didn’t expect was that at this time, Tang Linyi already had a girl he liked, and this girl was also a player in the game. This girl’s name was Song Xianxun, and her in-game name was “Ningbo Fairy”. She looked beautiful and lovely, with a naive and gentle personality, and was also a student at Qing University. Song Xianxun started playing games earlier than Tang Zihao, but her family background was ordinary, and it was impossible for her to spend money on the game to upgrade her character like Tang Zihao, and so, her game level was not very high. Their feud began with a fight over who got the equipment drop from a monster in the game. The result of the fight ended with Tang Zihao throwing money and humiliating her.
Song Xianxun was indignant and furious at how arrogant Tang Zihao was. For the purpose of obstructing Tang Zihao, she also joined the Guiyun sect and fought against Tang Zihao all day long.
Tang Zihao’s personality was very arrogant and willful because of his living environment since he was young. How could he allow her to provoke him like this? He directly threw money and offered a reward for people to chase and kill her, bringing her down from the Foundation Establishment rank she had worked hard to get to, all the way back to a Qi Condensation newbie...After Tang Zihao and Song Xianxun started their feud, Song Xianxun met Tang Linyi one day while being chased, and her innocent nature attracted Tang Linyi’s attention.
Later, they met outside of the game, and when he found that the adorable girl in the game was beautiful and gentle in the real world, the two quickly overcame their differences and became boyfriend and girlfriend. Tang Zihao had originally entered the game carrying the idea that while his love would not be returned in the real world, he could stay with Tang Linyi in the game.
He then found out that Tang Linyi actually fell in love with another woman. If it were someone else, he would have just let it be since he knew that his secret love wouldn’t be returned. But this woman was someone he had a deep resentment towards, and it naturally made him very angry. As it happened, when Song Xianxun found out that Tang Zihao liked Tang Linyi. In order to get revenge for the humiliation she suffered in the game, she deliberately provoked him, dragging Tang Linyi in front of him as they expressed their love and affection for each other. She also always fought against him and provoked him in the game.
How could Tang Zihao, who had an arrogant personality and also no brain, suffer this kind of provocation. In a fit of anger, he began to continuously bully and kill Song Xianxun in the game all over using his high level and money. He spent money to find people to hunt and kill Song Xianxun’s character and grind her cultivation level to dust. Song Xianxun, who was not a very high level player in the game, was obviously not his opponent. After her character was killed several times, Song Xianxun ran to her boyfriend Tang Linyi and cried.
His own beloved woman was bullied, of course Tang Linyi cared, and he immediately warned Tang Zihao, and in turn, in the game world, he oppressed Tang Zihao’s character to get revenge for Song Xianxun. And when he accidentally learned Tang Zihao’s identity in real life, he directly found him, cursed and yelled at him before telling Tang Dahai.
Although Tang Dahai loved Tang Zihao, in his heart, Tang Lingyi was more important. Moreover, Tang Lingyi’s grades were excellent and would be his successor in the future. Therefore, Tang Dahai, after being informed by Tang Lingyi, reduced Tang Zihao’s pocket money and left him without the funds needed to continue to play the game.
With Tang Linyi and Tang Dahai’s warnings, Tang Zihao could only settle down, forget the grudges he had with Song Xianxun, play the game honestly, and live his small life. But at this time, because of his grudge with Song Xianxun and his arrogant pursuit before, Tang Zihao had become a famous person in the game, and one that everyone hated.
Although Song Xianxun had an innocent personality, she was actually a very petty person who could hold a grudge. And after being bullied by Tang Zihao, she naturally had a grudge against him. After learning that Tang Zihao was a man from Tang Lingyi, Song Xianxun was egged on by the sisters around her. She then secretly found someone to put his real information online, making everyone in the game know about it. They called him a malicious ladyboy and a disgusting gay. When Tang Linyi became aware of his intentions, he also strictly warned and rejected him in private, and the hatred and disgust in his eyes caused Tang Zihao to feel very hurt.
This was already a love that would not be fruitful and was a taboo. Deep down Tang Zihao already knew this, yet he had just the desire to be with the one he loved in the virtual world. However, not only was his desire not achieved, but he was rejected and hated by the one he loved, and he was even scolded and cursed at by everyone in the game. Although it was just a virtual world, Tang Zihao was hit hard and quietly quit the game... But it didn’t end there. Because of Tang Linyi, Tang Dahai, who used to love him, gradually began to dislike him and no longer gave him a lot of pocket money.
It was a devastating blow to Tang Zihao, who was used to spending all his money since he was young. There was a big gap between the living expenses of 10,000 yuan for one month and 2000 yuan in another month. Without a lot of pocket money, Tang Zihao’s friends gradually stopped playing with him. Although the enmity he and Song Xianxun had was online, it gradually spread to the real world due to the fact that they went to the same school. Tang Zihao’s love for men was not only exposed on the internet, but also exposed to the entire school by Song Xianxun. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖
Although modern society was not as feudal as ancient times, homosexuality was not something that was popular, and many people were still very conflicted about it. So when it was exposed, it directly caused people to look at Tang Zihao strangely. Tang Zihao’s life began to change dramatically, and it was at this time that another man appeared in his life.
This man was called Ling Chen. His family was very rich, and his father ran a company that was worth tens of millions, a standard rich second-generation. He looked very handsome and was an influential person in Qing University. When everyone was looking at Tang Zihao with strange eyes, Ling Chen warmly made friends with him, protected him in school, and forbade people from bullying and cursing at him. Things developed smoothly and under the influence of Ling Chen, Tang Zihao came out of the shadow of Tang Linyi.
Tang Zihao, who had never had a serious love affair, was suffering from the shock of being hated by the one he liked, and also having his sexual orientation being exposed and discriminated against, very soon he fell for Ling Chen’s tender approach. Tang Zihao thought that he had found his true love, but who knew that Ling Chen was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The reason why Ling Chen got close to Tang Zihao was very simple: It was just to get revenge for Song Xianxun, to get Tang Zihao to fall in love with himself before abandoning him, playing with his feelings.
Because Ling Chen’s fame in the school was not low, Tang Zihao was also considered a celebrity, and so, after he was dumped, the school was full of gossip. Later, under pressure from Ling Chen, he was expelled from the school. The Tang family was also angry about the fact that Tang Zihao liked men. At this time, it was also revealed that the original host was not Tang Dahai’s child at all, but Zhang Li’s ex boyfriend’s child, and Tang Dahai, who had been tricked, was furious, and he drove Tang Zihao and his mother out of the house.
Tang Zihao, who lived a life of luxury since he was young, entered society without graduating from university. Without any basic life skills, he was unable to find any good jobs. His mother, Zhang Li, although she has a diploma, hadn’t worked since she hooked up with Tang Dahai, and even back then, she did not have much work experience. She enjoyed her rich wife’s life for many years, and she had long forgotten the things she had learned before.
Tang Zihao’s grandparents, Zhang Li’s parents were very old-fashioned and strict. In the beginning, when Zhang Li became Tang Dahai’s mistress, they broke off their relationship with her and hadn’t communicated with her for many years. After leaving the Tang family, neither of them had any money-making skills. The mother and son who had nowhere to go, lived a poor and destitute life. Before long, Zhang Li, Tang Zihao’s mother, died in a car accident, leaving him alone. Young and ignorant, he could hardly take care of himself. Tang Zihao, who had no job to support himself, soon went down the wrong road. He drifted to the night field jobs and became acquainted with a group of small gangsters. Finally, Tang Zihao went on the same road as his mother. He became a male mistress by virtue of his excellent appearance. After being played with for several years, he grew old and lived a miserable and lonely life.
Because of a little grudge in a game, Tang Zihao’s whole life was overturned. And Song Xianxun, who had been fighting with him in the game, became incomparable in the game. She was pursued by several gods in the game. She was envied by all the players in the game and became a goddess in the game world. Later on, she married Tang Linyi in real life and lived a happy life as a rich married woman... After his death, Tang Zihao was very resentful. He could have been a good young master and lived a rich, happy and simple life. But because of a little dispute in the game, Song Xianxun, Ling Chen, and others ruined his life. He was very unsatisfied.
So this time, the original host’s wish was to change his future as a male mistress. He didn’t want to get his mother kicked out of the house. He wanted to take revenge both in the game and at school, so that Mary Sue Song Xianxun, who always opposed him, would no longer be well-regarded like she was in the original plot. At this moment, the plot had just begun. The original host was just preparing to use this summer vacation to enter the game, and the subsequent plot had not yet started.
After receiving the plot information, Gu Bai rubbed his temples and breathed out a sigh. He lamented that the original host seemed to be a bad-tempered bully, but his actual heart was very simple. Even in exchange for his soul, he didn’t ask for his enemy to be killed, he just wanted to get revenge and to not implicate his mother.
He wanted to be well-regarded in real life and in the game. He couldn’t lose to Song Xianxun again. He didn’t want Song Xianxun to marry Tang Linyi. In other words, no matter who Tang Linyi was with, he just couldn’t marry Song Xianxun. Otherwise, he would still be unsatisfied! But while the task seemed to be just some games and school grudges, it was not so simple.
Besides Song Xianxun, the others involved in this whole task did not have simple backgrounds. Ling Chen’s family was not clean and was involved in shady areas. And Song Xianxun, she was just like a Mary Sue heroine in a romance novel. She was loved by everyone who saw her, had a huge crowd of pursuers, and her good luck was like a halo that surrounded her. To finish the task, he still had to be careful and couldn’t relax his vigilance. But on the whole, this task was much simpler than the last world’s heart-breaking one. Apart from people’s hearts, other matters in this world were very easy to get the grasp of.
