Beep beep beep~
Liu Chuan had just opened the chatting app on his phone when the penguin mascot started to beep non-stop. All kinds of chat groups flashed, and some people even added him as a friend.
Liu Chuan looked at the system notifications on his phone.
[Monkey Who Wants to Become Fat has invited you to join the group chat ‘Four-Man Suicide Squad’.]
[Monkey Who Wants to Become Fat has invited you to join the group chat ‘Martial Examination No. 1’.]
[A Cute Piggy (User ID: *********) has requested to befriend you.] Additional message: Lin Shensheng.]
When Liu Chuan saw this, he almost spat out a mouthful of saliva. Lin Shensheng actually added him as a friend on the app, but what the hell was going on with her name?
“A Cute Piggy? Is Lin Shensheng actually a cute girl deep down?” Liu Chuan thought to himself.
He could not help but recall the scene when he met Lin Shensheng in the ancient ruins. That flying kick… No, no, that was wrong. He had gone off-track. He started again.
No matter what, he could not combine her cold temperament and face with this cute name.
“But how did Lin Shensheng know my account? How strange.” Although Liu Chuan was muttering in his heart, he still decisively pressed the “accept” button.
Since a beauty had added him as a friend, who would disagree?
He successfully added Lin Shensheng as a friend. Closely after that, Lin Shensheng’s profile picture started shaking.
[We’re good friends now. Let’s chat.]
It turned out that this was an automatic reply from the system. Liu Chuan had not used this kind of software for too long and had forgotten about it. Thus, he thought that Lin Shensheng had sent him a message.
Lin Shensheng’s profile picture was actually a cute cartoon piglet that was even wearing pink clothes. However, Lin Shensheng’s profile picture was gray now. It seemed that she was not online yet.
These days, if one didn’t interact with the outside world for a month, one would feel like they would be eliminated by society.
If one didn’t understand some of the trending news and entertainment scoops, they wouldn’t be able to communicate with others.
Of course, this only referred to most ordinary people.
Cultivators rarely cared about such things. They only cared about the matters of the cultivation world.
Thus, cultivation was a long and boring matter.
Lin Shensheng wasn’t online, so Liu Chuan looked at the earlier group chats.
“Monkey Who Wants to Become Fat” was clearly Monkey. As there was no cell phone signal in the wilderness, they had added one another as friends when they returned to the training base.
Lin Shensheng had left without saying goodbye, so she didn’t add him as a friend then.
Liu Chuan thought about it. The first group should be the four-man group consisting of him, Lin Sisi, Wu Zhixin, and Monkey.
Meanwhile, the other group should be the group for the candidates of the martial arts examination.
Liu Chuan did not think much about it. Since it was Monkey who pulled him into the groups, he agreed to it.
Two similar system notifications popped up on his phone.
[You’re now a group member. Say hi to everyone!]
[You’re now a group member…]
Liu Chuan was not very interested in the ‘Martial Examination No. 1’ group. He did not know anyone, so he decided to go to the ‘Four-Man Suicide Squad’ group first.
Lin Sisi, Wu Zhixin, and Monkey were already in the group. Together with him, they formed a group of four.
Liu Chuan took a glance. Sure enough, no one was online. They should still be resting. After all, they had expended a lot of energy and were mentally and physically exhausted. Thus, it was normal for them not to wake up now.
Since he had just joined the group, he didn’t know what they were talking about before this. Thus, he left first and waited for the others to come online.
After exiting the ‘Four-Man Suicide Squad’ chat, he returned to the main interface and saw the ‘Martial Examination No. 1’ group interface jumping.
In the ‘Martial Examination No. 1’ group, some people who woke up early saw that new members had joined the group and started to chat.
The Strongest Prince in the Country said, “Which new friend joined the group? Are you a guy or a girl? If you’re a guy, send us a red packet. If you’re a girl, send us your sizes. Pfft, I made a typo. Send us your selfie.”
A despicable panda head emoji was also sent.
Liu Chuan looked at his online username, which was ‘There Are Always Unruly People Who Want to Harm Me’. Although his gender section was empty, he was still asked about his gender when he had such a domineering name. These people must be missing girls like crazy.
In order to kill the fantasy of The Strongest Prince in the Country, Liu Chuan decided to send 50 red packets, which had a total value of 100 yuan.
“There Are Always Unruly People Who Want to Harm Me sent a red packet.”
“The Strongest Prince in the Country received your red packet.”
“Handsome Little Ah Bao received your red packet.”
“The Emotionless Killer received your red packet.”
…
…
“Your red packets were fully claimed in two seconds. The luckiest user was: Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants.”
Liu Chuan was instantly dumbfounded. Was it really that real? Typically, everyone would be lurking online. However, once red packets were issued, everyone appeared.
After snatching the red packets, the group instantly became lively.
The Strongest Prince in the Country said, “The tycoon is awesome. The tycoon is amazing.”
This message was accompanied by an emoticon of a child wearing a red bodice and kowtowing.
The Emotionless Killer said, “Damn, what kind of luck do I have? It’s a 100 yuan red packet, but I only received 3.8 yuan. That’s too lousy.” The Emotionless Killer seemed very depressed.
Meanwhile, Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants said, “Mortals like you should leave. The chosen one is here.” Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants, who had snatched 20 yuan, was unwilling to be left alone and came out to show off.
At this moment, the other group members also appeared to chat.
My Life Memories Are Cool said, “Oh my god, what did I miss? Did I miss the red packets?”
Another person jumped out and exaggerated.
Crooked said, “Reporting to the tycoon, I didn’t manage to get the red packet! I’m aggressively dropping hints.”
…
…
When Liu Chuan saw this group of people chatting, he also felt that it was a little funny. Although he knew that these people didn’t really care much about the red packets that contained just a few dollars, they would still snatch as many red packets as they could on the Internet. It would be painful if they didn’t snatch as many red packets as they could.
Hence, he decided to send another batch of red packets.
This time, Liu Chuan chose to send password-locked red packets. There were 100 red packets with a collective value of 100 yuan. The password was “Liu Chuan, why are you so handsome!”
Instantly, the chat interface was filled with messages that said, “Liu Chuan, why are you so handsome!”
The Strongest Prince in the Country said, “Liu Chuan, why are you so handsome!”
Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants said, “Liu Chuan, why are you so handsome!”
Tiantian said, “Liu Chuan, why are you so handsome!”
I Get Numb When I Sleep with You said, “Liu Chuan, why…”
Polar Snow said, “…”
…
Liu Chuan was very satisfied to see so many people praise him for how handsome he was.
As expected, the masses had sharp eyes.
Liu Chuan felt a wave of desire. He wanted to send a few more red packets, but he quickly restrained himself.
It was no wonder that some people were addicted to sending red packets. This feeling was indeed not bad.
After some thought, he exited the chat group and turned off his phone.
After looking at his phone for quite some time, he felt that if he wanted to rest, he would go out for a run.
To the current Liu Chuan, running was not very useful in enhancing his physique. However, Liu Chuan had already treated running as his own relaxation time.
He changed into a set of blue and white sportswear and a pair of black sneakers. Then, he looked at himself in the mirror. Not bad, he was a handsome man.
Liu Chuan expressed his satisfaction again..
