He hailed a taxi and went straight to the bank. Taking out two cards and entering the passwords, his heart pounded with excitent and anticipation.
The next mont, the numbers on the screen threw him into a jubilant frenzy.
"Holy shit... 100,000!!"
He checked the other card.
"Holy shit!! 500,000."
"Haha... I’m rich!" Chu Hao leaped up, thrilled.
Just then, a fierce-looking guy next to him snapped, "Are you crazy, man? Are you going to withdraw money or not? If not, then piss off."
Chu Hao turned and glared at him. "What’s it to you?"
"Oh, wow! You’re testing my temper." The guy rolled up his sleeves, looking ready for a fight.
In his view, Chu Hao was just a little punk; he could take down four or five like him.
Chu Hao sneered. Fight ? I’m not afraid of a hundred people, let alone you.
So, he also rolled up his sleeves, preparing to "persuade with virtue." He said, "Have you been having a streak of bad luck lately? Let guess, you got screwed over by a woman, didn’t you?"
"How did you know?" The guy, who had been ready to fight, froze instantly.
Chu Hao looked disdainful. "That’s nothing. You’ve recently co into money, but things at ho aren’t great. Your wife wants to divorce you, right?"
"Ding... The Host has reached the realm of ’Pretentious Everywhere,’ triggered a critical hit, and gained 20 Pretentiousness Points."
Haha! Pretentious everywhere, that’s just how incredibly cool and aweso I am!
Chu Hao continued, "But you don’t want the divorce."
"Holy shit! You... you’ve been following ?" The guy jumped up, shocked.
Chu Hao waved his hand, exuding an unfathomably deep, grandmasterly air. "Let introduce myself. I’m skilled in bone-reading, palmistry, divination, matchmaking, fortune-telling, predicting futures, exorcising evil spirits, and subduing demons—all for a fair price. I can help you resolve your issues."
"Ding... The Host has been successfully pretentious and gained 5 Pretentiousness Points."
The man was stunned. He grabbed Chu Hao’s hand excitedly. "So you’re a Master! You have to help . I really love my wife; I don’t want to divorce her."
Chu Hao held up a finger. "The price is negotiable. Just 10,000."
The guy despaired. "Why don’t you just rob ?"
"Compared to the fortune you’ve recently acquired, what’s this amount? Take it or leave it, I’m leaving." Chu Hao turned as if to go.
The guy was bewildered. How does he know I won the lottery? But that’s impossible! I only claid the prize today, and I was wearing a mask. There’s no way he could know!
The guy quickly grabbed Chu Hao. "Fine, 10,000 it is."
Seeing an extra 10,000 in his account, Chu Hao’s heart blossod with joy.
He bought a Marriage Amulet for just 1 Pretentiousness Point and handed it to the man. "Burn this and mix the ashes with water. Half for your wife, half for you. It guarantees a happy and fulfilling marriage, and you might even have a Little Fatty soon."
The guy was thrilled. "Master, you’re phenonal! You even knew I don’t have a child."
Chu Hao smiled, waved his hand, and left.
"Take care, Master."
「...」
With 610,000 in his possession, he felt incredibly happy and decided to improve his lifestyle. After all, he could now consider himself wealthy.
"Hmm... let’s hit the internet café and treat myself."
Young people all loved surfing the net, and Chu Hao was no exception. He enjoyed the most popular ga of the day, League of Legends.
He went to the best internet café in town and ended up playing Yasuo in a ga.
"This sucks!"
His teammates started cursing.
"Damn Yasuo, do you even know how to play? How long are you going to keep split-pushing solo?"
"Papa Yasuo, please group up! We can’t hold them anymore!"
The opponents taunted, "Haha... thanks, enemy Yasuo, for another easy win!"
Chu Hao felt embarrassed; he really was playing poorly.
"Coming, coming." Chu Hao clicked his mouse, guiding Yasuo from the bottom lane toward the middle lane, preparing for a team fight.
Just then, he saw a low-health Teemo darting through the nearby bushes.
"Haha... don’t run, Teemo!" Chu Hao got excited, controlling Yasuo to pounce like a big gray wolf eyeing a little white rabbit.
Chasing Teemo to the Dragon’s pit bushes, Yasuo pounced, only for three burly figures to spring out: Demacia, Barbarian King, and Galun!
"A spear strikes like a dragon!"
"For Demacia!"
"I will be your worst nightmare!"
"What the FUCK!!!"
Over Chu Hao’s head, ten thousand figurative horses galloped past.
"DEFEAT"
Seeing the defeat screen, Chu Hao was filled with frustration.
Suddenly, the young man sitting next to him exploded with rage. "Damn it, is that Yasuo an idiot?! We pinged that there were enemies there, and he still dove into the bushes!"
Chu Hao was stunned.
The young man obviously had a short temper, probably because it was a ranked ga, and he was quite frustrated. Seeing Chu Hao frowning at him, he said, "Did I disturb you? Sorry, that idiotic Yasuo just now ran after Teemo and got ambushed by Galun and his two companions."
Chu Hao’s face darkened. Wasn’t that guy talking about ?
As their eyes t, the young man glanced at his own screen, then at Chu Hao’s. Suddenly, he beca furious. "What the fuck!! Are YOU that idiotic Yasuo?"
"Watch your language!" Chu Hao glared at him.
"Shit! Do you have any idea how important that match was?" The young man grew even angrier, realizing the "feeder" Yasuo was right next to him.
Chu Hao shook his head. "No."
The young man beca even more furious, gritting his teeth. "Xiao ng is ignoring now! We agreed we’d et if we won this match, and you screwed it all up!"
Hearing this, Chu Hao actually felt a bit embarrassed.
Chu Hao said earnestly, "Calm down. Let’s play another round; I’m sure I can win this ti. Why don’t you contact your Xiao ng again, and we’ll play another ga?"
"You!!" The young man almost coughed up blood. After seeing this disastrous Yasuo, who would want to team up with him again?
"Get lost! I’ve been unlucky enough these past few days. Don’t bother ."
Chu Hao didn’t bother with him any longer.
He queued up for another ranked match, picked Yasuo again, and continued his reckless gaming.
Suddenly, the young man next to him exclaid excitedly, "Haha... you’re on the opposite team!!"
Chu Hao was taken aback. He looked at his screen and, sure enough, he was on the enemy team, leaving him completely flustered.
What the hell were the odds of running into him like this?
"Haha!! Just you wait, I’ll crush you." The young man was gleeful and hastily typed to his Xiao ng.
"Xiao ng, that idiotic Yasuo from earlier is on the enemy team! We’re sure to win this ti!"
Xiao ng replied: "Really? Oh... it’s true! Crush him!"
"Hehe... I’ll tell you a secret, he’s sitting right next to ."
What the hell!! I’m sitting right next to you, how can you be so brazen?
Chu Hao was on the verge of tears.
At that mont, a ssage appeared in the bottom corner from his team’s Riven: "Don’t feed. Our jungler and I are both Diamond I, here to rank up from another region."
Chu Hao was overjoyed. From the young man and Xiao ng’s conversation, he gathered that their opponents were also Diamond rank. With his own skills, he indeed couldn’t beat them.
Controlling Zed, the young man aggressively cleared minions and hunted for kills. At level 6, he laughed maniacally and said to Chu Hao, "Ti for a killing spree!"
Perhaps he was too excited, desperate to kill Yasuo, and didn’t even glance at his opponent’s screen. With his skills, taking Yasuo’s head was definitely not a problem.
However! Just as he charged out, Riven and the Blind Monk from the top lane suddenly appeared, catching the young man in a panic.
The young man was skilled; even though he was critically injured, he managed to escape using his shadow clone.
But then...
The young man went berserk. "AHHH... Ignite!!"
FIRST BLOOD for Yasuo.
