Chapter 83 Chapter 83 23

Duan Lingling was a little panicked. She didn't expect that after she borrowed some luck points, the system would be unable to do anything no matter what she said.

Does that mean I have to wait until she pays back all the points before the system can be used again?

But when she borrowed the luck value, the system did not explain this situation.

However, Duan Lingling felt it was worth it when she thought that if Bai Ruoruo was disfigured, those men would naturally no longer lower their favorability towards her for no reason.

As for the favorability that had been lowered, she would just work hard to improve it.

But why hasn’t the person she is waiting for even shown up?

She was a little anxious.

She waited and waited, but didn't see the person she wanted to see. Instead, a jet-black car arrived. It was Tang Xi's car. After all, those who could afford luxury cars around here were mostly the guests on "31 Days of Love," especially the male guests, whose cars were all more luxurious than the other, making them very easy to spot.

She could only see the man's figure from a distance, but it was not difficult to feel the man's eagerness. He got out of the car, slammed the door, and walked hurriedly towards the cabin.

Before she could look away, she saw the car behind her, which was He Chang's.

Soon after, a third car also came into view. This one was even more familiar to her, having ridden in it countless times in the past two weeks. Even on the passenger seat, there was a lip gloss she had deliberately left behind, hoping it would drive Fu Shiting crazy, but now it was just unnecessary.

Two people got out of the car one after the other, and went inside the cabin without saying hello when they saw each other. They were in the same dormitory, so it was obvious that they didn't have a very deep friendship. They walked very fast, and they couldn't wait to get back to the cabin before the other.

"Haha." Duan Lingling suddenly felt that she didn't want to drink tea but wanted to drink some wine.

It would be fine for others, but even Sheng Binxu is like this.

He could obviously guess who the two people in the photo were, but he didn't even send himself a message. Instead, he hurried back to the cabin.

From the moment Bai Ruoruo appeared, everything went haywire.

She still couldn't help but send a message to the person she was waiting for to test him.

"Brother Gangzi, I've thought of a birthday present for you. You work so hard delivering food every day, and the traffic is so dangerous. How about I give you a helmet? I just saw one I really like in a store." Wang Gang's birthday is in a few days, and as a caring sister, she had already mentioned her desire to choose a birthday present for him during their last phone call, but she just couldn't think of one. Now was a good excuse.

Wang Gang quickly replied, "I like whatever Lingling gives me."

Then he added, "Don't worry, Lingling, I won't let anyone bully you!"

A gift that didn't even exist could improve Wang Gang's favor twice. Duan Lingling felt that it was not a loss at all, not to mention the promise Wang Gang made to her.

Other promises might not be believable, but Duan Lingling still believed him when it came to something like this that was done on impulse.

Duan Lingling finally relaxed a little.

She had always had complete and unconditional trust in the system. After all, it was a useful tool that had truly helped her immensely. Without it, she would have died long ago in her original world. After arriving in this world, she had relied entirely on the system to accomplish many things, gaining many things she had never dared to imagine.

But in recent days, Duan Lingling has gradually begun to no longer dare to trust the system so deeply. After all, the skyrocketing luck value no matter what the system needs to do, and the fact that the system often fails to do things that it should be able to do, all seem very strange.

But all she could do was grit her teeth and accept it.

All this began to change after Bai Ruoruo appeared. As long as she destroyed Bai Ruoruo's seductive face, she believed that everything would return to normal sooner or later.

The heroine Fu Shiting and Bai Ruoruo are just stepping stones on her road to success.

Moreover, the system was only one with her. She couldn't please anyone, couldn't gain favor, and the system couldn't collect luck points.

So when the system suddenly suggested that Wang Gang could block Bai Ruoruo's true appearance from his eyes for just 100 Luck Points, that even concentrated sulfuric acid could be created out of thin air, but that it cost 1,000 Luck Points, and that helping her conceal key evidence could also be exchanged for Luck Points, she, despite her doubts, steeled herself and owed the system 1,500 Luck Points, using them all. Even her own appearance filter could only last for five days.

She was not without hesitation. After all, the system had changed so much that it seemed to have become different from the simple mechanized system before. However, she still chose to bet everything, hoping that everything would return to normal.

However, she still couldn't let it go when she saw the male guests who had more or less a relationship with her walking hurriedly towards the cabin.

After sitting there for an hour, she couldn't help but think about going back to the cabin. Sitting here, she couldn't help but wonder what was going on in the cabin.

[System, can you help me delete the call record just now?]

[Of course] This time, the system readily agreed.

·

The atmosphere in the love cottage was solemn. Several men gathered in the living room, and someone would look up at the stairs from time to time.

"When did they go upstairs?" Tang Xi couldn't help but speak first.

"More than an hour ago." Huo Jingshen frowned and glanced at the time when the director called him.

"I went up shortly after the director sent me a call and haven't come down since."

"Who told her about this online incident? Can't we just settle it secretly?" Sheng Binxu spoke in a bad tone. After all, he could recognize another person just by looking at the back in the two pictures.

Duan Lingling has changed a lot since she was in middle school, but Sheng Binxu was more impressed by her in middle school, so it was naturally impossible for him not to notice it.

He knew what was going on, so he just wanted to suppress the trending search. He also contacted the high school principal without hesitation, hoping to take the initiative himself. After all, he had a lot to do with what happened back then. He felt bad for the malicious speculation Ruo Ruo was facing online, and he was also worried that the sudden incident would make Ruo Ruo dislike him even more. Of course, to be frank, his biggest fear was that his actions would be exposed and people would know that Fu Shiting was actually his fiancée since childhood.

He knew in his heart that what he had done over the years was not moral, but he still wanted to maintain his reputation.

The principal told him that all records of the forum discussions had vanished, even the comics Bai Ruoruo had confiscated. Sheng Bin was unsure how much truth there was in his words, but hearing his sincerity, and the hint of regret when he mentioned the comics, he could only believe it for now, though he didn't forget to say anything harsh.

"Ruoruo found out about this from a sudden phone call. If you have the guts, go ask Ruoruo who told her!" Tan Tongtong hated it most when people spoke in a questioning tone, even if the words weren't directed at him.

Sheng Binxu calmed down because of his irritability, "Is she okay now?"

"Nonsense, why don't you try to endure all kinds of speculation and abuse online?" Tan Tongtong complained without even raising his head, but he didn't forget to stare at the new comments while holding the phone in his hand.

If he sees someone saying they believe in Ruo Ruo, he'll give them a thumbs up. If he sees someone cursing like a madman, he'll immediately report them.

He Chang hadn't spoken since he came in. His gentle temperament had completely disappeared, and his face was so cold that people didn't dare to approach him.

When Duan Lingling came in, the atmosphere between them remained unchanged. Only Tang Xi reluctantly greeted her, but it was clear that her attention was completely distracted. She didn't even ask why she came back so early. The others were even more concerned. Huo Jingshen even threatened her privately not to mention their previous acquaintance.

Before she came back, she always wanted to come back, fearing that Fu Shiting and Bai Ruoruo would do something behind her back to harm her. But after she came back, she couldn't accept this atmosphere and the gap.

Even though this feeling of disparity has existed for a few days, she still can't stand it.

She firmly believed that she had a system even though she had transmigrated into a book, and that she was the real protagonist! She had never imagined that one day she would face such a situation.

She originally wanted to go back upstairs, but just as she stood up, Bai Ruoruo and Fu Shiting came out of the room one after another.

Tan Tongtong was the first to react, running to Ruoruo in a few steps. "Are you okay, Ruoruo? Those people online are talking nonsense, just like the group who scolded the young lady back then. They take advantage of the fact that no one recognizes them online and scold anyone they catch. They are a bunch of stinky rats hiding in the gutter. Don't take it to heart."

He was very careful when he said this, fearing that something he said would be wrong and make Ruo Ruo sad.

However, Ruoruo did not show any sad reaction. Instead, Duan Lingling beside her had a very unhappy expression on her face, because she had used her second account to scold Fu Shiting and Bai Ruoruo on the Internet. If she had not known that Tan Tongtong had always been stupid, she would have thought that he was alluding to her.

The other men also stood up. Tang Xi silently went into the kitchen to pour a glass of water. He Chang put on a gentle mask and approached. Huo Jingshen was not willing to be left behind and hurriedly showed concern for Ruo Ruo. Even though she looked fine, at least there was no sign of crying.

"Look, everyone believes you. Some people on the Internet are just jealous and have dark minds." Tan Tongtong said this, but in his heart he didn't care at all whether Ruoru had done anything bullying. He was a person who wanted the ones he loved to live and wanted the ones he hated to die. He had some sense of right and wrong, but not much, and it was obvious that it came after feelings.

Only Sheng Binxu stood still, not daring to move closer. It wasn't because he knew what was going on, but because he was afraid Fu Shiting would say something unpleasant to him.

Fu Shiting had become a completely different person these past few days. She couldn't wait to be with Bai Ruoruo, and had become much colder towards him. He was relieved at first, but sometimes he felt uncomfortable. He used to find Fu Shiting always pestering him, saying she loved him and wanted to marry him in the future, which annoyed him. But now that she was ignored, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Not to mention, when other male guests approached Bai Ruoruo, Fu Shiting stood by without saying a word. But as soon as he approached, regardless of Bai Ruoruo's reaction, Fu Shiting exploded like a firecracker, and every word she said was heart-wrenching.

So his heart was in turmoil right now, as if it had been split into three parts, each with its own bittersweet flavor. But he didn't think it was a big problem. Sometimes, it seemed like being fickle was just a man's nature, and he just happened to be in a period of confusion, not knowing what to do.
