Bao Yu walked over and looked at Shen Ziqi: "What is it? Let's talk about it after we finish eating."

Only then did Shen Ziqi notice Bao Yu's arrival: "No, I'm sorry, I've spoiled everyone's fun!"

Bao Yu shook his head: "It's okay, you see, no one minds, they just care about you!"

Even though it was their first time meeting, everyone seemed to care about him, something Shen Ziqi had never experienced before.

He remembered that when he was very young, Cheng Cheng was the only person who was kind to him. Everyone else either disliked him or avoided him, and even his parents could only sigh when they looked at him.

Later, Cheng Cheng went abroad, and he could only feel a sense of existence when he was with those people.

He didn't know why Cheng Cheng was friends with those people, and why he had even asked them to take good care of him before leaving. He wasn't stupid; he could easily see that these people were only after his money.

Shen Ziqi's voice was tinged with embarrassment and a hint of tears: "From childhood to adulthood, Chengzi has been my only friend. Everyone else looks down on me, but he's the only one who plays with me. Even my parents gave up on me, but he's the only one who encourages me."

Later, Chengzi went abroad to study and asked me to take care of his younger brother, the one with the green hair today. I never expected that his brother would be a completely different person from Chengzi.

His younger brother has been a good-for-nothing since he was little, and he hangs out with thugs. I know that every time they ask me to go out, they just want to spend my money. But, because he's Chengzi's brother, and because nobody else wants to talk to me anymore, so I..." Shen Ziqi didn't finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he meant.

Wait, something feels off.

【I also......】

Yes, something's off!

Everyone felt something was off, but couldn't quite put their finger on it. Their attention was all on Shen Ziqi, and they didn't notice the other people in the room.

"Ugh, you're being overwhelmed by the CPU!"

The sudden sound drew everyone's attention, but Du Guodong didn't seem embarrassed at all; instead, he appeared to share a common hatred for the enemy.

"First, let me ask you, doesn't Chengzi have parents?"

Shen Ziqi didn't know what he meant, but he still answered, "Yes."

"Then why is he even trying to escape orphanage? Why doesn't he go to his parents instead of you? Is he sick in the head?"

Unexpectedly, Shen Ziqi got very angry: "You're not allowed to talk about Chengzi like that!"

Du Guodong was not angry at Shen Ziqi's words. Instead, he seemed to think, "See? He's been brainwashed so badly."

After being reminded by Du Guodong, everyone except the person involved realized what was happening.

"I knew something was wrong! There's definitely something wrong with this city!"

[Damn, even if someone is terrible, it's impossible for only one person to be friendly to you your whole life!]

Yes, even with a stranger, no one dislikes someone for no reason; everyone will subconsciously show kindness.

However, Shen Ziqi still didn't believe it. "You're talking nonsense! Chengzi is my only friend. He wouldn't do that."

[Hey, I've got a short temper! Who's using Xiaoyu's livestreaming device? Ask that spendthrift guy for me, are we good to him?]

[Exactly, ask him, aren't we his friends?]

[Yeah, we haven't known each other for very long, but we're still friends, and nobody thinks you're a bad person!]

The person holding Bao Yu's livestream device relayed everyone's message: "You spendthrift, well, everyone in the livestream is asking you, haven't we treated you well? Aren't we your friends?"
