Chapter 42 The Amorous Man

"My...my girlfriend broke up with me..." Liu Hao felt utterly hopeless.

Chen Yu, Li Zheng in the car, and Zhang Quanming, who was driving, were all stunned upon hearing this.

They never expected that a young man would choose to take his own life because of breaking up with his girlfriend.

Faced with this situation, Chen Yu was both amused and exasperated.

"Wait!" Chen Yu suddenly seemed to have thought of something.

This time of year, the Baqing Dajiang Bridge, a young man heartbroken over love... why does this plot seem so familiar?

Thinking of this, Chen Yu quickly asked Liu Hao, "What's your name?"

Liu Hao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Hadn't he already introduced himself?

“Mr. Chen, his name is Liu Hao,” Li Zheng reminded him.

"Not that." Chen Yu shook his head. "I was asking about your other names, um... what's your online name?"

"Skinny Tiger?" he replied, somewhat puzzled, clearly not understanding why Chen Yu had suddenly asked this.

Upon hearing the name "Skinny Tiger," Chen Yu was slightly taken aback.

A year before the apocalypse in his previous life, he had seen an outrageous news story online:

A young and talented professional gamer worked day and night taking on online game boosting jobs to earn money in order to help his girlfriend open a shop.

For the past two years, he has lived frugally and given all the money he earned to his so-called "girlfriend".

However, during this period, he and his so-called "girlfriend" met only a handful of times and didn't even touch hands.

Most importantly, the skinny man was not a local of Baqing. He traveled all the way to Baqing at the invitation of the woman.

However, the woman made various excuses to avoid meeting him.

Not to mention living together, every time she initiated a conversation with him, she would ask him for money under various pretexts.

As their agreed wedding date approached, Skinny Tiger had been completely exploited by that woman.

The woman kicked Skinny Tiger away with just one sentence: "We're not a good match."

After his efforts to salvage the relationship failed, Shouhu ultimately jumped off the Baqing Dajiang Bridge, ending his young life.

The matter should have ended there, until half a month later.

It was only when Shouhu's sister was sorting through his belongings that she discovered the truth.

Out of anger and sadness, Tiger Sister made everything public, posting the entire incident online.

This immediately caused a huge uproar online.

Public anger quickly gathered, and the woman's behavior was strongly condemned.

The online uproar intensified, with many angry people starting to dox the woman.

Her social media accounts were exposed, and her business suffered a huge blow; she didn't even dare to open her shop.

Many netizens expressed their heartfelt sentiments at the time, saying that if only two experienced friends had taken him to bathhouses a few times, he wouldn't have gotten so deeply involved.

Everyone was angry at "Skinny Tiger" for his misfortune, but also saddened by his lack of ambition.

They felt sympathy for his unfortunate experiences.

I feel sorry for his final outcome.

As the incident continued to unfold, mainstream media outlets began to pay attention to it, reporting on the story of Shouhu and his ordeal.

Many psychologists and sociologists analyzed the risks of this type of online romance in the program.

We urge all netizens to be vigilant against online scams and protect their property and emotional well-being.

…………

As for how things developed afterward, Chen Yu wasn't quite sure.

With the popularization of the internet, all sorts of bizarre things are constantly being exposed to the public.

As social focus shifted, the story of "Skinny Tiger" gradually faded from the internet within a few days.

At that time, Chen Yu was constantly exploited by his unscrupulous boss, so he naturally had no time or energy to pay special attention to such matters.

However, Chen Yu knew without even thinking how this matter would develop.

It was nothing more than a fake apology statement issued by Shouhu's so-called "girlfriend" under pressure from public opinion.

At most, a small amount of money will be returned, and the matter will be dropped.

Originally, the incident involving the thin tiger was just a trivial matter in Chen Yu's memories of his previous life.

Who would have thought that after his rebirth from the apocalypse, he would encounter the protagonist of this story he met before the apocalypse—Liu Hao (Skinny Tiger).

Not only did he witness Liu Hao jump into the river, but his bodyguard also rescued him.

The world is truly full of incredible coincidences!

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Liu Hao was puzzled when he saw Chen Yu freeze up when he heard his online name "Skinny Tiger".

Chen Yu was pulled back to reality from his distant memories by Liu Hao's voice. He smiled and said, "Hehe, it's nothing."

"Beep beep~" Just then, a message notification sound came from Chen Yu's bag.

Chen Yu took out his phone from his bag; it was Liu Hao's.

When Liu Hao jumped into the river, his phone was left on the bridge, so Chen Yu picked it up for him.

"Yours." Chen Yu handed the phone to Liu Hao.

"Thanks."

Liu Hao took the phone, unlocked it, and opened the chat panel.

Upon seeing the message, a look of sorrow appeared on his face.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yu couldn't help but glance at the contents of Liu Hao's phone.

This is a notification message indicating that the other party has accepted the transfer; the transfer amount is [amount in yuan].

It was sent by Liu Hao, and was specially noted as a "voluntary gift".

Ironically, before this transfer notification, Liu Hao had sent dozens of messages to the other party, but the other party hadn't replied to a single one.
