Chapter 9 : meow meow meow

Xu Baijing simply didn’t know how he spent this day, as he had never encountered such shame. When he was ‘invited’ out by the security guards in such a way, and when he was in such a embarrassing state, he also happened to run into the paparazzi…..who were squatting outside to film him. His experience after that was so sour that Xu Baijing really didn’t want to remember it, but fortunately his president’s father paid good money to suppress the news.

That night, Xu Baijing printed out a hundred copies of Wen Xingze’s ‘the harder you work, the luckier you get’ emoji packet and ripped it to pieces one by one, but it still did not resolve the anger in his heart.

He’s just a small cannon fodder, how dare he try to bully the protagonist. Did he forget who rules this world?!

That’s right, Xu Baijing knew that this world was a novel called “Luxury Koi is Super Rich,” and he was the koi protagonist in the book. He has a koi life and five rich fathers. Every one of his fathers was born and had achieved great success in various fields. It was natural for him to become a winner in life!

—— Koi star, as the name suggests, means that everything Xu Baijing does will be very smooth and successful. All the scripts he acted in will definitely be a hit; if he participated in the talent show? He must debut as the center; college entrance examination? Even if he closes his eyes and answers the questions on the paper, he can rely on luck to get a high score.

However, the truth is that only he knows, the world likes to conserve energy. After all, a koi life can’t come out of nowhere. The luck he snatched were from the small cannon fodder led by Wen Xingze.

The luckier he is, the more unlucky the little cannon fodder is.

So he lived in a mansion while Wen Xingze lived in a basement, he became a popular star while Wen Xingze wasn’t even recognised by old housewifes, but in which way does it matter to him?

“Cannon fodders will sacrifice themselves for the protagonist; this is the law of heaven.” Xu Baijing muttered, bitterly tearing Wen Xingze’s expression pack.

But this morning, when he met Wen Xingze, his koi fate was firmly suppressed for the first time in his life. He rushed urgently to the master feng shui to ask about it, and received a startling reply.

“Mr. Xu, you seem to have encountered……dragon in the morning!”

Little koi in the river, how dare you fight for glory with the dragon? Moreover, the koi originally borrowed the light of the dragon to get a bit of good luck. Of course, when they met a real dragon, they were blown up by a hammer!

“You have not angered the dragon before,” the feng shui master said with a lingering fear, “If you snatch fate from other people, it wouldn’t have been a problem, but if you anger the dragon, the sins made in the past will be doubly reversed.”

Xu Baijing: “Fuck, that’s impossible! You must have made a mistake!”

He angrily walked out the door and fell on his face just after taking a step.

Feng Shui Master: “Amitabha Buddha.”

Xu Baijing: “……” FUCK!!!

After Xu Baijing came out, he called one of his rich fathers, the one with equity in Manli, whose name was Xu Bianzhou.

“Dad,” Xu Baijing cried, “Wen Xingze and Zheng Xiao joined forces to bully me, not only did they steal the role of “Yulongye”, they also kicked me out of Manli.”

“You help me out, just like when I was a child. I really want to play the role in ‘Yulongye’”! The six words,‘like when I was a child’ were a winning formula for Xu Bianzhou.

Sure enough, Xu Bianzhou was unable to resist, his voice suppressed with anger: “Kick you out? Who would dare to kick my baby out of Manli?!”

Xu Baijing: “It’s that Wen Xingze ah, the foreman even said he was the one who chartered the Manli. I don’t believe it, he must be lying.”

“……”

Hearing the word ‘chartered’, Xu Bianzhou suddenly stopped talking.

Xu Baijing suddenly had a bad premonition: “Dad? You will help me out, right?”

Xu Bianzhou was silent for a long time, then said:

“I’m sorry, Baijing, I’m to blame for this, but we really can’t afford to mess with that person.” Xu Bianzhou lit his cigarette, “Just pretend he doesn’t exist, soon this matter will be over. I can even find someone to help you write a script specifically, even if ‘Yulongye’-”

“Only this, and you count as my dad?!” Xu Baijing said incredulously.

Xu Bianzhou’s face turned dark, and he was just about to say something when- ‘beep’. The phone was abruptly hung up.

Xu Baijing held back his anger all day like this, found his friends to have a drink and a small wild model to play with, but it was still hard to get rid of his hatred.

In the evening, something made him even more angry.

The local channel variety show “Treasure Hunt”, which was originally not paid attention to, was launched, but because of the popularity of Wen Xingze’s emoji pack, and the content of this issue really was fun…

At nine o’clock in the evening, the ratings of “Treasure Hunt” exploded!

That night-

“@well_striving_to_learn_Chinese_in_v: Very nice to watch [great] Mr. Wen has very good taste in music! //

@ Treasure Hunt Adventure v: the latest installment of the show will be shown tonight at eight o’clock ~please tune on online platform oh ~ [link]”

[Dragon, you’re watching Treasure Hunt Adventure too! Isn’t it? The leading track of classical music [doge] is really xswl,* daily money-saving tips, Amitabha Buddha]

[t/n: Chinese slang for lmao, laughing to death; xiao si wo le]

[Dragon, rap a remix version of the Great Compassion Mantra; can you arrange it, will wait for your new album [doge]]

[No.8 Wen Xingze is really a treasure idol, with a face like that and this behaviour, I laughed so hard the neighbors were about to call the police, hahahaha]

[? Where is it, I want to watch it quickly!]

Ryunosuke Inoue’s music style was very distinctive and fashionable, in Japan he was the music director of many popular animated films. Although he has only been in China for a short time, he already has many fans.

Xiao Zhang is one of them.

Ryunosuke Inoue usually acts in an eccentric style, and also likes performance art. This is the first time that he has praised someone has a good taste in music so bluntly.

Zhang was very curious when he clicked on the link, he thought it would be some kind of high class music review program, but who knew…

“Tasteful variety show?!” Xiao Zhang was shocked. Could it be that the account was hacked by a low-end marketing account?

“No, I can’t watch this kind of IQ-lowering thing…” Having said that, Xiao Zhang still could not resist his curiosity and clicked on play.

Soon, he saw the praised “Mr. Wen” that is, the eighth contestant. This appearance surprised him as a straight man. What a well-deserved fairy appearance, a look that takes all men and women in, young and old. The fluorescent green death aesthetic sportswear surprisingly looked quite good on him.

He continued to look down.

When preparing for the game, Wen Xingze uncovered the bottle cap and won the French Romantic Seven-Day Tour grand prize. Like most spectators, Xiao Zhang couldn’t help but feel happy.

It was not because of the winning prize, but the reaction of Wen Xingze and the staff was too funny – Wen Xingze’s face was filled with ‘No way, is this arranged by the program team? This is a little too fake, right?’, and the staff’s face was filled with ‘No way, is our show so rich?’

Hahahahaha.

Suddenly, he became interested in the local variety show.

Xiao Zhang never expected that he would win the prize a second time, which turned out to be the romantic seven-day tour in France again. If opening the lid for the first time was a bit like a deliberate arrangement, the second time completely dispelled Xiao Zhang’s thoughts.

How can the program group arrange such a fake action? Plus, the reaction of the entire director group is too real. The director’s shocked expression was exactly the same as that of the audience in front of the TV!

Many people in the barrage were also talking about “famous scenes”, “Why is this No. 8 contestant who obviously has a beautiful face very much suitable for emoticons”, and “emoticons are doing hot, really doing hot”.

At the same time he found it interesting, it also made people shocked by Wen Xingze’s good luck.

Looking further down, Xiao Zhang quickly understood the reason for the hot comment.

— The female contestant complained about how hot it was, and when Wen Xingze handed the headphones to the female player and play the Great Compassion Mantra ‘spell to cool down’, Xiao Zhang couldn’t hold back his burst of laughter any longer!

It turns out that Ryunosuke Inoue was teasing, and this music taste is really quite good.

After a while, the content will officially enter the game. If the previous content made Xiao Zhang felt that sand sculptures are fun, the subsequent content shocked him completely.

The first half is actually quite boring.

Because there are three contestants who look like they have backdoor relationships, the program team very clearly opened a back door as high as a mountain. For example, the math question for every other contestants were calculated like “212365 divided by 5423”, while the three contestants’ were “24 divided by 6”. The difficulty was not on the same level at all, did they think all the audience were that stupid?

Until Wen Xingze came out.

When Wen Xingze appeared on the stage, the style of the barrage changed suddenly, from the original “It’s all boring, so boring”, “boring” and “fooling the audience”…

It became-

[ This is really high energy! The first time I saw it, I came back and re-watched it. I came back after watching the second time, and now all that’s left in my heart is ‘this is also possible’]

[I think koi luck doesn’t fit him very well haha, I suggest calling him true dragon luck …… before, those who have been marketing koi life have been completely compared to @Xu Baijing]

“……”

After watching the whole process of winning the title in just two minutes, Xiao Zhang’s heart is also left with ‘this person is ok’.

Wen Xingze was obviously not a backdoor person, because his problem is also super difficult, there was no room for cheating in that arithmetic problem, plus the random huge advertisement behind it is different, and he happened to point out the difference of less than a centimeter with his eyes closed. It really can only be explained by luck!

Not to mention the final puzzle.

Although it is intentionally set to “I will not”, but other statements like “I do not know”, “will not ah”, “too difficult will not ” was not correct, the only correct statement was chosen by Wen Xingze.

In the middle-to-late stages of the show and even Wen Xingze himself were obviously desperate, and Wen Xingze wasn’t even desperate to receive the final award: a young man with a rosy figure holding the sign of ‘Romantic Trip to France for Seven Days’ sign, his light brown pupils somewhat wanly half-open, his skin snow-white, his hair wet at the tips, his face full of unhappiness.

The program team directly put “Forced to Open” next to it.

“Hahahahahahaha! Absolutely!”

At the same time, as he slapped the table, he burst into laughter. Xiao Zhang also remembered that Wen Xingze had opened two trips to France prize before the game. He should be the last player to want this award.

He really does not know whether to say it is good luck or bad luck.

Throughout the entire program, although it was the most ground-breaking luck that he had ever looked upon, Xiao Zhang was still quite unsatisfied.

The main reason for this is Wen Xingze.

The program itself was actually very fake, but Wen Xingze was very real.

The beauty of his prosperous age was too real, not holding back at all, and his luck was against the sky, too likeable!

Although Wen Xingze’s Weibo followers were growing rapidly, it hasn’t exceeded 10,000. Was it so muddy that the company didn’t buy any zombie fans or something?

Xiao Zhang was very surprised after the point of attention and along the way went to the super talk sign in. Finally, he opened WeChat and edited this to his circle of friends and promoted Treasure Idol.

Xiao Zhang’s reaction was the epitome of many young people this evening.

With the popularity of the emoji packs yesterday, coupled with the spontaneous amenity of such a widening range of viewers, the ratings of Treasure Hunt Adventure could be seen rising in the background. Finally, near nine o’clock, it exploded!

Xu Baijing’s teeth were grinding with anger. He had a hunch that if he couldn’t stop Wen Xingze this time, he would not be able to stop it later. Wen Xingze would become more and more popular.

“The first thing I needed to do is to make up a little bit of black information while there are still not many of his die-hard fans, since all of them are passerby fans!” Xu Baijing thought, “Just bite the bullet and say that Wen Xingze has the biggest connection of “Treasure Hunt Adventure”, being kept by an uncle or something……”

This is the usual routine of their team, and they have already rooted out several competitors in this way.

However, things backfired.

Xu Baijing encountered many obstacles on the way to find a marketing account. Before he could find a good person, Jiang Ye ended up with a professional team!

After all, Jiang Ye is a Shengtian trump card, and his business level cannot be ignored. The rhythmic signs of blackening here have not risen yet, but they have been completely put out before it could. Xu Baijing’s team was no match for Jiang Ye, that’s the only thing that one can be sure of.

Moreover, the wind direction of “Treasure Hunt Adventure” was originally in favor of Wen Xingze.

Coupled with Jiang Ye’s ability and network, timely and natural press releases which don’t require special marketing, this harvested a wave of heat when the discussion of “Treasure Hunt” was the hottest…

Overnight, Wen Xingze’s fan base increased by 100,000.

Manli Hotel, the top-floor presidential suite.

Wen Xingze himself knew nothing about what was happening online.

He didn’t have time to go online at all, since he spent a whole afternoon to learn about what happened from the Dragons.

It turned out that everything that had happened in the game ‘Desolation’ that he had been playing for the past three years was real in the parallel universe. The Muse Empire he built was not false either, even the nationals……were real.

And yesterday’s “Desolation” update featured reverse raising cub, which reverses both sides of the game.

In Desolation, Wen Xingze was the player and the Empire nationals were the ‘cubs’ being raised, while in the Cub Raising Program launched by the Light Tower yesterday, the nationals were the players and Wen Xingze became the ‘cub’ being raised instead.

They are each other’s paper figures.

Of course, Wen Xingze can’t see the content of “Cub Raising Plan”. He can’t even log into the game when in the reverse mode of raising cubs. And currently he didn’t know how to unlock this mode… maybe he had to wait for the game to clear?

That’s too long, right?

Desolation and the Cub Raising Program were the equivalent of linking parallel universes. Wen Xingze thought, what this light tower is to be able to do such amazing things.

Only the Muse Empire nationals did not know this, and most of them still thought that Wen Xingze was just a virtual model, just like how Wen Xingze used to think that “Desolation” was also just a game, unaware that “Cub Raising Program” was also a real parallel universe.

Wen Xingze explained to the dragons about Desolation being a game to him, and was a little worried that they would get angry, but to his surprise, the dragons’ reaction wasn’t.

“We already guessed that you don’t belong to our universe,” Aster said, “and to be honest, everyone else and I are all jealous and hate the one you are in.”

This universe, which obviously has their king, did not cherish it at all.

Even now, when they think of the environment in which His Majesty lived before, the dragons still can’t breathe and the desire to destroy everything comes out.

They held him in their mouths for fear of dissolving the treasure, they held him in their palm for fear of him falling, but that treasure was ridiculed and trampled by others.

If the king lives in their universe, they will not let him encounter them.

Their king simply does not need to know what earthly hardships are.

“But I…… I’m only online for a few hours a day, won’t the other Muse nationals find it strange?” Wen Xingze asked.

The flow of time between Earth and that universe should be different; Wen Xingze had been playing the game for three years, while more than thirty years had passed on the side of the Muse Empire.

Wen Xingze learned from the Dragons that now in the eyes of the nationals, he was a ‘cub’ modeled after His Majesty in the Cub Raising Program – since the game started, the time flow rate of the two worlds was corrected to become one to one.

“Everyone thinks that you suffer from some kind of strange disease and only wake up at certain times of the day to deal with official business and work,” said Will the Silver Dragon shyly, “because everyone is so eager to see you anytime, anywhere, the game was so hot that I couldn’t even grab a spot.”

So that’s how it is…wait?

“So, is my life being broadcasted to StarCraft 24 hours a day?” Wen Xingze said, “For example, when we are communicating now, can the citizens also see it?”

No wonder they know he wears SpongeBob SquarePants underwear!

Jade said: “That’s not true. The key shots are automatically coded. After you fall asleep at night, it is privacy time. And the underwear was because everyone could see your clothes on the shelf.”

After all, in everyone’s eyes, that is your Majesty’s ‘secret base’. It was no exaggeration to say that the Muse citizens have checked everything they could see with microscopes, including the frequency of old TV cards.

“As for now, ordinary citizens can’t see it. Because our communication is highly encrypted by the light tower, otherwise everyone would want to talk to you, and it will be messy-unless someone forcibly intercepts it. The game shows you’re taking a nap.”

Speaking of this, Aster suddenly remembered something, but didn’t show it on his face.

The average citizen would definitely not intercept the light tower band deliberately, but he always has an inexplicable intuition that the Cub Raising Program was played by more than just the Muse Empire.

The neighboring country’s ruler has a completely different way of ruling from their majesty, acting in a cold and ruthless style, but their strength is undoubtedly strong.

On the other side of the universe, that mysterious neighbouring country, the only one in the entire universe that can compete with the Muse Empire, has maintained a delicate peace between the two countries in recent years.

Within a few years, he quickly annexed countless otherwise powerful countries, but has never made a move against the Muse Empire.

Of course, the Muse Empire, as the overlord, was not afraid of them, but if they started a war, no one will get away without any harm.

Astor always suspected that the tyrant of the neighbouring country was also playing the Cub Raising Program, which was a result of his inexplicable intuition.

Wen Xingze: “That’s good……everyone, the matter of me not being a ‘game character model’, I hope you will not tell other Muse citizens for the time being.” He was afraid that the people would not accept it. Their king turned out to be an 18th-line star in another world. It was a bit too disillusioned to think about it.

Although the dragons didn’t know why His Majesty requested this, they were unconditionally obedient to the king and immediately said,

“Of course.”

If they knew Wen Xingze’s inner monologue, they would probably be unable to understand.

His Majesty was too kind, there were many paranoid and crazy races in the nation itself besides the dragons, like the blood race, the beasts, the biochemicals, and even the seemingly kind and gentle mermaid-elf gnomes. All of them were not good.

Their king, living in a ten-square-meter basement, cramped, damp, dark and leaky, plus relying on cheap fast food to live, can’t pay the utility bills, while being oppressed and ridiculed……these facts are enough to make any Muse Empire citizen angry.

The intuition of the dragons was the most exceptional of all races. So far, only they know that the Cub Raising Program was not just a mere game, but the real world in which the king lives.

However, just yesterday, the second everything about King’s living environment was revealed-

There were thousands of wasteland planets. In just ten seconds, they were completely destroyed by the fury of the races.

The dragons need not say much, the orcs all went crazy and berserk, and the mermaid had awakened the tide of meteorites in the asteroid belt that was enough to destroy the entire galaxy. In he whole country, rage filled the air.

This was the big event that had put the whole universe in fear. The cosmic media was still whitewashing it, but that’s just on the surface.

If the nationals knew that all this was not just a game, but what the King had once experienced for real, they would definitely want to destroy this bad universe by any means necessary, just like the dragons who had just learned everything.

For the sake of protecting the universe where the ancient blue star is located, it was understandable that the King wanted to conceal his true identity.

The dragons thought so. It has nothing to do with the disillusionment that Wen Xingze is worried about, it is simply a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning. Their proud king, His Majesty, was born to be loved by the entire universe.

It had nothing to do with what birth, occupation, age, or even the universe in which it was located. To them……
