Prodigal System in the Flourishing City
Chapter 1031 - 1029: A Breather
CHAPTER 1031: CHAPTER 1029: A BREATHER
Hospital.
Wen Cun, who was receiving an IV drip, slowly opened his eyes.
He felt very tired, his whole body was exhausted, but the physical fatigue couldn’t compare to the fatigue in his heart!
The feeling of powerlessness and suffocation haunted him like a lingering ghost.
And the source of it all was that name—Lu Xiaobu!
Someone who seemed careless and lazy, someone you could squash with a slap, someone considered a prodigal son, but when you truly face him, you feel nothing but suffocation!
And at this moment.
"Yo, Wen Cun, what happened?!"
The voice that suffocated Wen Cun came in!
Wen Cun’s pupils instantly enlarged!
He watched as Lu Xiaobu walked in, coming to his bedside!
Just like the recent times, it was still that arrogant and domineering gaze from above!
"Lu! Xiao! Bu!" Wen Cun said through gritted teeth, "You’re not welcome here!"
"I didn’t ask you to welcome me!" Lu Xiaobu sneered coldly, "I’m just here to tell you that the next QQ update is happening right now!"
After Lu Xiaobu finished speaking, he tossed a phone to Wen Cun and turned to leave, "Consider the phone a gift for you!"
Just as he stepped out the door, he heard a noise from inside!
"Pfft!"
It was the sound of vomiting blood.
Then came the panicked voice of someone nearby: "Doctor, doctor! Come quickly! Patient number three has fainted again!"
Wen Cun had fainted again!
What did he see?!
QQ actually got updated yet again!
Lu Xiaobu, are you a Gatling gun?!
Why is it so fast?!
Although he still didn’t know what this update represented, just the speed alone was enough to make his already weak body suffer a Qi-Blood attack!
Lu Xiaobu listened to the chaos inside and sneered.
If Wen Cun had only provoked him, he wouldn’t have bothered to go this far!
But Wen Cun’s mistake was in directly targeting his employees!
For Lu Xiaobu, that is a taboo!
And what was it that Lu Xiaobu gave Wen Cun on the phone?!
It was this!
"QQ update again, adding QQ Space game feature, QQ Farm, Parking Space grand debut"
That’s right, it was the game that once drove people crazy—QQ Farm!
Anyone who experienced that era knows how popular that game was!
Countless people set alarms in the middle of the night just to wake up and steal vegetables!
Some bosses even fired employees for stealing their vegetables!
Can you imagine such a crazy scene?!
And that madness is about to be repeated in this era!
The business world has kept a close eye on KK and QQ.
The previous updates have always been eye-openers for them!
"Oh my, Lu Xiaobu’s moves are just too impressive, one after another!"
"The key is that they’re all strokes of genius, thrilling to watch, yet nerve-wracking!"
"Yes indeed! Look at that blacklist setting, such a simple idea! But no one ever thought of it!"
"And the shake function, nearby people, these things aren’t hard, but no one but Lu Xiaobu thought of them!"
"What do you think goes on in Lu Xiaobu’s mind?!"
"By the way, how many of your researchers on Lu Xiaobu have gone mad?!"
"Mad? Don’t even mention it! Working in this field is almost a high-risk job; no one wants to analyze or research Lu Xiaobu, no matter the money! I’ve got almost no one left!"
"Yeah! Same here! It’s like we’ve seen a ghost!"
"..."
At that moment, the news of the QQ update came out.
"Oh crap! It’s updated again?!"
"Damned it! So fast! My brain can’t keep up!"
"Quickly, see what’s new in this update?!"
"QQ Farm?! What’s this?! A mini-game?!"
"Quick, read the introduction!"
"Saw it, nothing much! Just a vegetable-growing game! Is this worth updating?!"
"Is Lu Xiaobu doing this on purpose?! I heard Wen Cun was hospitalized; is he deliberately using this to piss off Wen Cun?! Frankly, I really feel it’s nothing much!"
"Yeah! No gameplay, no game experience, just clicking the mouse, what’s the big deal?!"
"Probably just as you said, I heard Lu Xiaobu did go to the hospital today, and Wen Cun was so pissed he vomited blood!"
"As expected! Lu Xiaobu did this to mess with Wen Cun!"
"But to make such a fuss over this little thing, it’s a bit of an overreaction!"
"Who’s to say! People now eagerly anticipate every QQ update! If Lu Xiaobu lets them down this time, it’s like giving Wen Cun a breather!"
"Lu Xiaobu often does this! Alright, nothing interesting here! Let’s wait for next time!"
"..."
Businesspeople mostly think this QQ update by Lu Xiaobu is just a joke, deliberately meant to provoke Wen Cun!
After all, the game really doesn’t seem to offer much of a game experience, completely different from the current hit, LOL.
So, based on their experience, no one thinks this game will go anywhere!
Not just them, even the QQ users who just started also feel the same way.
"This game? Just like that?! Plant a couple of plots, sprinkle water, kill bugs?!"
"This is too lacking in game experience! What’s the point?! I’d rather play LOL if I have the time!"
"Yeah! Young Master Bu, you’re fooling people!"
"Forget it, human limits have their bounds, Lu Xiaobu is human too, he can’t have good ideas every day!"
"Exactly, just as a time-killer!"
"..."
No one paid attention to this so-called game, they just planted some vegetables out of curiosity and quickly forgot about it!
...
In the hospital, Wen Cun woke up once more.
He grabbed his secretary next to him, with red eyes, asking: "Tell me! Tell me! How was the reaction to QQ’s update this time?! Did it go viral?!"
His heart was full of conflict; he both wanted and didn’t want to know the answer!
After all, he feared he couldn’t handle it if he knew!
"No! No! President Wen, don’t worry! Lu Xiaobu messed up this time, it didn’t go viral, the reaction is mediocre!"
The secretary’s hand was hurting from Wen Cun’s grip, but he still managed to speak through the pain.
"Really?!"
Wen Cun almost jumped out of bed, the IV needle falling out, blood seeping out!
"Really! Really!" The secretary quickly reassured him, calling for a doctor.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! My fate is not sealed!" Wen Cun started laughing wildly!
Lu Xiaobu made a mistake, finally made a mistake!
This is giving him a chance to catch his breath!
As long as he seizes this opportunity, he still has a chance to turn the tables!
However!
Is that really the case?!
