She Live Streams Modern Life to Ancient People After Failing to Conquer the Emperor
Chapter 110: Defaulting to Crossing the Line Means Defaulting to Ambiguity
Chapter 110
Chen Yun was currently bedridden in the hospital, recovering from surgery for a fractured bone.
Her boyfriend had just arrived at the hospital. Instead of properly taking care of his girlfriend's injury, he was offering to send someone home? What kind of friend was that?
Moreover, it wasn't even Chen Yun who suggested it. Her boyfriend suddenly came up with the idea of sending someone home. Wasn't this crossing a line? In his heart, was sending Gu Sang home more important than Chen Yun's injury?
"The goddess's words seem to make sense... Not taking care of his own fiancée who's injured, but instead sending the goddess home?"
"If his fiancée was perfectly fine and the goddess was injured, it might be understandable, but... could it really be as that girl said?"
"Surely it can't be that bad..."
The ancient one's heart was in turmoil.
Screech—!
The sound of brakes filled the air.
They had arrived at Gu Sang's home.
During this journey, Gu Sang had refused her parents' birthday party invitation and rejected gifts like luxury cars and villas.
She always felt that she couldn't go back.
She just wanted to work hard and earn money, waiting for her grandmother to come home. She no longer yearned for anything else.
Gu Sang's refusal was within Gu Qing's expectations. She glanced at her sister, then rather awkwardly pulled out an exquisitely wrapped gift box from her bag.
"If you won't go, then don't. Forget it, I was just asking casually anyway."
"Here, take this!"
"Don't ask, just accept it. Don't open it until I'm gone!" Gu Qing quickly started the car and sped away.
Gu Sang instinctively reached out to take the gift box.
Whoa—
Gu Sang almost couldn't hold it.
Was this box filled with bricks?
It was so heavy!
In the short few minutes it took to go upstairs and return home, Gu Sang felt like her hand was about to break off. The box was only about the size of a book, square in shape.
"She didn't actually give me a brick, did she?"
"It doesn't seem like it, but how can such a small box feel like it weighs fifteen or twenty pounds?"
Gu Sang curiously opened the gift box and was stunned the next second!
Because!
Inside was a transparent glass container holding a gold brick.
Next to it was a gold certification from a major bank: "China Commercial Bank Gold, 8888 grams"
"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands... What's the current gold price? The buyback price is over 400... I've struck it rich." Gu Sang sat on the sofa, tightly hugging the brick, sighing and marveling repeatedly.
She really didn't want to accept it.
But!
But it was just too, too, too heavy!
-
As time quickly approached evening.
Gu Sang happened to go out for dinner with Lu Mufei, taking the opportunity to discuss matters related to the film crew.
Meanwhile, the video of Lin Lin jumping off a building had gone viral online with the passage of time, becoming the hottest headline, even catching the attention of many official channels.
That night.
The official account of Jianghai City posted an announcement: "Please remain vigilant, and be sure to keep finances clear during romantic relationships!"
Although the announcement concealed the names of those involved.
Netizens still managed to piece together the puzzle and guess who the parties were.
Subsequently,
A series of videos "teaching you how to identify cunning men" and "how to spend money normally during a relationship" went viral on the internet.
The male protagonist involved, He Linpeng.
He was just leaving the police station, looking exhausted. It wasn't until he passed through the gates of the station that his face began to show a hint of smugness.
He Linpeng sneered, "Pah! Think you're so great, officials? That spendthrift woman wasn't killed by my own hands. Summoning me for no reason, really taking a chicken feather for an imperial edict."
"Don't think dying solves the problem!"
"I still have all those bills. The child's debt, the mother pays. If they don't pay, I'll take them to court."
He Linpeng was supposed to be resting at home today, but the police suddenly showed up, saying Lin Lin's suicide was related to him.
Fortunately, everything he did was within the bounds of the law, and he hadn't done anything illegal.
Coming to the police station was just about having some tea and listening to a lecture on moral character.
He hadn't broken any laws, so it was just a matter of morals and personal integrity. These people and the netizens could only try to restrain him on moral grounds, but he didn't care!
He had no morals, so what did it matter!
"There are plenty of cheating men in the world, but you never see any woman acting as dramatic as her."
"Really, it's like a dog catching mice, meddling in affairs that don't concern them. They'd be better off dealing with those old men and women scamming people on the streets, or those gold diggers."
"Now that's what you call profiting without investment."
"This two hundred thousand plus, it's all money I spent on Lin Lin. Every penny spent was my hard-earned money, why shouldn't I get it back?"
He Linpeng grumbled as he took a taxi home.
As soon as he arrived at the residential complex, he noticed that the neighbors and security guards who used to be friendly with him started to avoid him intentionally or unintentionally.
Old Li, who used to go fishing with him whenever they had time, acted as if he hadn't seen him today.
This made He Linpeng quite angry: "Old Li, you're being unreasonable. That gold digger's death has nothing to do with me. She chose to jump off the building herself. Don't listen to those idle gossips."
"Even the police haven't convicted me of any crime, which proves I'm not wrong!"
"What's wrong with taking back my own money!"
He Linpeng raised his voice for the latter part of his speech.
He seemed to be proudly flaunting his abilities.
He was over thirty, not only had he found a young mistress, but he was also able to get back the money he had spent on her. Wasn't that a kind of skill?
Those who could earn more than him, so what? They still didn't have the ability to find a mistress!
Seeing that Old Li was still shrinking back and afraid to respond, He Linpeng couldn't be bothered to say more. He just sneered and walked towards the stairs.
The next second!
He Linpeng's voice echoed from the stairwell. Everyone could hear his furious roar from afar: "Which damned bastard dared to dump shit at my doorstep!!!"
"Ugh!"
"Ugh! Just wait till I catch you, I'll definitely... Ugh! Ugh!"
He Linpeng rushed down to the ground floor, retching all the way.
Everyone covered their noses and stayed far away, seemingly able to smell that faint stench coming from He Linpeng's body.
Ten minutes later, the police arrived after receiving an emergency call.
Looking at the pile of feces dumped at He Linpeng's doorstep, the entire stairwell was filled with an unbearable stench of excrement.
The police were both speechless and helpless.
This was an old residential building with no surveillance cameras upstairs!
Moreover, the neighbors across from him had already moved out, and only He Linpeng's family lived up there.
An officer spoke up: "Mr. He, please calm down. We will investigate this matter."
He Linpeng was red-faced with anger: "How can I calm down! These people have no manners, this is too much!"
"You must find the person who's been spraying feces on my doorstep immediately! It's disgusting. Such a morally depraved thief should be thrown in jail!"
The team members: "......."
Suddenly hearing the word "quality," they felt like laughing.
No, they were professionals. They couldn't laugh, unless they couldn't hold it in.
"We'll investigate as quickly as possible. However, please clean up the excrement in front of your door today. We don't want it to affect other residents in the community."
