CHAPTER 864: CHAPTER 775: DISLOCATED LIFE 63

The reason Wen Shuangshuang wanted the Fang Family to slander her reputation in front of the media wasn’t that she was masochistic and enjoyed being insulted.

Wen Shuangshuang did this because she wanted to completely sever ties with the Fang Family and to prevent them from exploiting her name in the future or playing emotional games to disgust her.

If the Fang Family didn’t reveal their true faces, and if Wen Shuangshuang were the only one speaking out against them, claiming that the Fang Family was shameless and treated her poorly, no one would believe her. Some might even think that she, as a daughter, had bad character and was defaming her parents.

In many people’s minds, when parents or children make mistakes, they hope the other party won’t hold grudges and will be forgiving. Due to a ridiculous attachment to blood ties, unless the other party is excessively egregious, they won’t openly criticize one side and believe that such family members should be cleanly severed from their lives.

Even so, when one side truly faces punishment and suffers, there will still be a small group of irrational people who think the victim’s retaliation is excessive. After all, how can you be so harsh in revenge when the other party is your parent or child? Fortunately, this kind of irrational thinking is a minority and doesn’t need to be cared about.

Wen Shuangshuang, however, seeks the approval of the majority of rational people. It’s not that she cares too much about public opinion, but living in this world, no one can completely ignore everyone’s gaze, and a life where everyone hounds you is difficult to endure.

So, only when the Fang Family causes a big ruckus, making their situation known to everyone, will people understand how detestable their true faces are, leaving the Fang Family with no chance for redemption.

Initially, Wen Shuangshuang didn’t plan to act so quickly in turning the tables. She intended to let the Fang Family become even more arrogant, cause an even bigger scene, and draw more attention. This way, after overturning the situation, the Fang Family would have no room left to turn things around. However, when those online started cursing Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun, Wen Shuangshuang could no longer bear it.

So Wen Shuangshuang directly contacted Wen Donglin and some high-status journalist friends, asking them to help broadcast a clarifying news report.

Fortunately, Wen Donglin and the others already knew about the situation between Wen Shuangshuang and the Fang Family. When the incident happened that evening, they had begun collecting all kinds of evidence for overturning the situation. Now, everything is ready, and all that’s left is to see people’s reactions after the news is broadcasted.

Beidu is a newly risen gaming streamer and online celebrity. Of course, not the traditional type of gaming streamer; he became famous for professionally streaming strategy guides for the Ascension to God game once it became popular.

Beidu is talented and capable, earning money from home. His strongest skill is software programming. Every year, he writes a couple of small software or sometimes some mini-games, earning quite a bit, enough to maintain his leisurely nerd life.

Not only can Beidu sustain his own recreational lifestyle, but he also earns enough to support his parents and still save up a decent amount, which is quite impressive, although he is rather reclusive.

Before the era of gaming and online shopping, Beidu wasn’t this reclusive, but ever since the time came when you could take care of everything online from home, he became a proud homebody and later evolved into an ’otaku’.

However, Beidu isn’t a complete shut-in; he travels a few times every year to ensure he gets exercise and broadens his horizons. In fact, many homebodies don’t dislike going out; they just find anything other than travel to be uninspiring. One could say that compared to shopping or going to malls, homebodies prefer staying in or traveling.

Beidu is this kind of homebody who can stay home for a month unless it’s for travel. Since the release of the Ascension to God game, Beidu has been utterly captivated because he can experience fantastical, breathtaking landscapes in the game that can’t even be seen during travel.

Although the lack of real tactile sensation is a bit regrettable, the visual feast is satisfying enough for him. After being satisfied with a few days of virtual travel in the game, Beidu discovered a new vocation: a game travel strategy guide streamer.

Though Beidu is a homebody, he doesn’t like gaming too much. He initially entered the Ascension to God game simply out of curiosity, only to be immediately enthralled by the scenery within.

Beidu is a bit obsessive-compulsive; he has to do things in order. Even though he likes every map in the game, he insists on fully exploring and mastering one map before moving on to the next.

While playing, Beidu discovered that many people, overwhelmed by the gorgeous sights, would jump from one area to another without taking a closer look, missing out on many beautiful landscapes.

For example, Beidu once found a narrow canyon in a valley, and after passing through it, he discovered a Paradise beyond the gorge, with breathtaking scenery that was intoxicating.

Another time, Beidu climbed to the top of a seemingly ordinary mountain, only to be surprised by a sprawling hilltop garden filled with colorful flowers, a spectacular sea of blossoms that still moves him to this day.

By now, Beidu had immense admiration for Wen Shuangshuang. He believed that these scenic spots were carefully set by Wen Shuangshuang for players to discover, yet no one noticed, which he found very regrettable.

So Beidu specifically started a strategy post, sharing these hidden scenic spots on his streaming account. Surprising him, it gained much popularity, receiving a wave of tips and numerous comments urging him to continue posting strategies.

Thus, Beidu started earning tip money from writing guides, an income almost equal to his usual earnings, launching his career as a game travel guide streamer, steadily gaining fame.

Later, an upgraded version of the Ascension to God game was released, adding many restrictions stumping a large number of players. However, for Beidu, who had been an academic superstar throughout school and still is, obtaining the key was a piece of cake.

But like all academic superstars, the key didn’t stump these achievers, and yet they faltered at the physical challenges. For Beidu, the chubby homebody, this was particularly evident. Yet the alluring game landscapes were so captivating that even when exhausted, he found it hard to quit the game.

With no other option, Beidu had to start playing using the slow walk method, then transitioning to a fast walk once he adapted, then to a jog, occasionally jumping to experience the flying landscapes visually.

Initially, Beidu would get out of breath after just a few minutes, but with the game’s scenery enticing him, unlike the dull monotony of walking alone, Beidu could stick with it under the stimulus of visual pleasure.
