Chapter 138 - Persevere, and Persevere More (6)

The system began to reorganize its code and became chaotic. The more Jiang Mucheng fell in her pain, the faster the system reorganized itself.

At this time, Lin Yueqi received a call from Lu Ting, and she informed them of their location. A few minutes later, Lu Ting appeared in front of the milk tea shop with Tuantuan in his hands.

The chubby girl had fallen asleep on Lu Ting’s shoulder, and Lu Ting was beckoning Lin Yueqi through the glass door of the milk tea shop.

Lin Yueqi went to the counter and put down a hundred bucks. She said to the owner, “Help me comfort the girl after, and if possible, could you help her get a ride home?”

“Sure.” The owner passed her a pen and paper. “Could you give me an autograph?”

Lin Yueqi signed her name on the notebook and then grabbed her bag, leaving with the men’s jacket over her shoulders.

Before leaving, Lin Yueqi looked at Jiang Mucheng who was crying on the table and sighed.

Hopefully, she won’t turn into a second Qin Xue.

On the third morning, Lin Yueqi went through the news while lying on her bed and applying a mask.

There were two popular news headlines:

—”Jiachen Screenwriter admits to using hacking technique to copy someone’s script”

—”‘Fraud Girl” admits to plagiarism and making three authors famous!”

A screenshot of Jiang Mucheng’s Weibo was placed at the intro of the first news.

Jiang Mucheng V: “Hello, I’m Jiang Mucheng, Jiachen’s contracted screenwriter. I’m sorry everyone, but I felt the need to take revenge after the Zhao Yuan incident. I used a hacking technique to hack into the computers of several authors, stealing their original works and registering them before them, taking their works for myself. The works I stole were…”

Under the blog post, the comment sections were boiling with curses.

At the same time that Jiang Mucheng sent out that Weibo, a system notification sounded in her head.

“Your actions are a serious violation of the agreement between the system and the host. 20 points of permanent idiocy will be added forever. You can choose to turn back and delete the post, and send another post to clarify that your account was stolen.”

“Would you like to delete the post and turn back?”

—Yes

—No

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Muchen chose no.

The system was so pissed that it was fuming. It was completely unaware of what Lin Yueqi had said to her. Was Lin Yueqi’s brainwashing more powerful than it?

The system was seriously pissed.

Two days later, Lin Yueqi found Jiang Mucheng in a mental hospital. An elderly woman was by her side, crying her eyes out.

Jiang Mucheng was holding a computer, but she had no idea what she was doing. As the typed on it, she muttered and shook her head every so often.

Ever since Jiang Mucheng sent out that post, she turned crazy. She ran about the crowded road, and the police took her to the hospital.

When Lin Yueqi came to see her, she saw what she was typing.

On the computer screen, she saw white text on a black background. She was constantly typing one line over and over again:

“Lin Yueqi is going to win ten million, win ten million.”

On the TV, the lottery numbers were playing. The host read out each number one at a time. “01, 02, 45…”

Lin Yueqi was shocked. Why did this string of numbers look so familiar to her?

When she went out the other day, she stopped by the lottery in front of her neighborhood and bought a ticket. It seemed to be this string of numbers?

Lin Yueqi quickly found the ticket from her wallet and matched it with the numbers on the TV.

“Oh shit! Did I win??” Lin Yueqi’s entire body froze in place. Her hands were shaking. “Ten…Ten million?”

The girl in the hospital bed was still chanting “ten million”. Jiang Mucheng’s grandmother who was looking at Lin Yueqi’s shocked face had no idea what just happened. She poured Lin Yueqi a cup of water, but before she could react, she was hugged by the other.

“Granny Jiang! I just won ten fucking million!”

Some people are in joy, but others are in sorrow.

“Revenge Script”, “……Jiang Mucheng, you fucker!!!”

The author has something to say:

Jiang Mucheng has to pay the price because she went down the wrong road. You can’t erase everything just because you admitted your wrongs.
