Don't get married if you're reborn.

Chapter 22: Recharge 50QB to Unblock Me
Zeng Wenjie was in a good mood and slept soundly all night.

Zeng Xiangdong's heart was hanging in the air. He had suffered too much in his life and knew how hard it was to make money and how disgusting shit was. If he didn't get back the rough goods worth more than 50,000 yuan, he would feel extremely upset.

Zeng Wenjie was also unable to comfort his father by saying that even if the money was gone, he could earn it again. After all, he had been using the family's money since he was born.

It’s impossible to tell your father that your son will be a big anchor in the future, making millions of dollars a year by cutting leeks like crazy, right?

They stopped the car at the road sign where the gold bag was discarded last night. Zeng Wenjie asked his father to wait on the roadside while he went down the county road to look for the gold bag.

"Well, I didn't use much force yesterday. I was just on the riverbank." After Zeng Wenjie went down and took a look, he saw the gray little backpack.

He quickly picked up his backpack and climbed back to the county road. Zeng Xiangdong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had returned successfully.

Zeng Wenjie handed the gold bag to his father and said, "Dad, you should go to the village to collect some goods today. I will go back to the county town to get some information."

Zeng Xiangdong was startled and asked, "Aren't you going back with me?"

Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "I'm waiting for the bus on the roadside. It will be here soon. I'll be back later!"

"Okay, take this thousand yuan." Zeng Xiangdong counted out ten bills and gave them to him.

"No need, I haven't spent the money I had before." Zeng Wenjie said lightly.

Zeng Xiangdong saw that he didn't want to accept it, so he put the money back into the bag without saying anything. He said, "If you need anything, feel free to call me."

After waving goodbye to his father, Zeng Wenjie waited on the roadside for a while for the bus from Baishui Town to Shizhu County. It took only the time it took to smoke two cigarettes before the bus arrived.

After returning to Shizhu County, Zeng Wenjie went straight to the Internet cafe where he often went with Hu Guohua and Shi Jing.

As soon as he entered the Internet cafe, the smoky smell made him frown. He didn't know why he liked Internet cafes so much. He didn't mind the strange smell and could stay there for two or three days.

Then, he saw Hu Guohua sitting in the corner, chopping at the Demon Realm with a pair of red eyes.

"Good fellow, my grandfather was merciful enough to let you learn martial arts, but you found it tiring. So you're not tired of coming here to chop people all night long, right?" Zeng Wenjie sat down beside him and asked unhappily.

"Ah? Bra, why are you here?" Hu Guohua was shocked. He didn't expect to meet Zeng Wenjie by chance.

Zeng Wenjie turned on the computer, shook his head, and said, "I came to the county to do something, but I didn't expect you to stay here all night!"

Hu Guohua casually pulled out a cigarette from the soft cigarette he had thrown on the table and said with a smile, "Not bad, you got it from Niubai again?"

Zeng Wenjie sneered: "What a joke, this is a gift from my father."

Hu Guohua was stunned after hearing this. He looked at him in astonishment and said, "You are kidding me!"

Zeng Wenjie took out a pack of soft drinks from his other pocket and said, "Why would I lie to you? Look, I have another pack."

"Fuck, godfather taught me!" Hu Guohua bowed his head and thought it was awesome.

Zeng Wenjie ignored him and let him continue to hack people, then opened QQ and started searching for Mu Qingyang's QQ number.

Mu Qingyang's QQ number was eight digits. He pondered for a moment and entered the eight-digit number he remembered, but the person he searched for was not her.

Apparently his memory was a little confused, and then he tried to change the last digits, all of which were numbers he remembered.

"That's right." Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but smile when he saw the account named "Karenina" and added it directly.

He looked at the online name and fell into deep thought.

If I remember correctly, Mu Qingyang's online name was taken from Leo Tolstoy's novel "Anna Karenina".

This book actually describes the various contradictions in the American society at that time, and the protagonist Anna Karenina is a very tragic and sad character, who ends up committing suicide by lying on the railway tracks.

He couldn't help but think of Mu Qingyang's final outcome, and when he looked at the online name again, he felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Three minutes later, Zeng Wenjie heard a cough and clicked on it. Karenina had rejected his friend request. Zeng Wenjie's mouth twitched. Wow, an autistic girl is online so early in the morning, right?

But it makes sense. Mu Qingyang, the autistic girl, comes from a wealthy family and must have a computer. She doesn't have to risk her life to go up the mountain to collect gold. She has nothing to do during the summer vacation, so what else can she do besides going online?
"Huh, it's not easy to add her as a friend..." Zeng Wenjie pinched his chin.

The reason why he changed his profile picture to Nicholas Tse was because Mu Qingyang often listened to the songs of this star.

Zeng Wenjie lit a cigarette, then added another message: Hello, I'm Leo Tolstoy. I'm not dead, the evil Tsar has sealed me! Please add me as a friend and top up 50 QB for me, and I'll be unblocked. Once I'm unblocked, you'll be the first reader of my new work!
This was a common scam for the next decade or so, but it managed to fool people, and it gradually evolved into a common meme.

But such a joke was still very refreshing in 06.

"Karenina has accepted your friend request!" A cough was heard soon, and the friend request was indeed approved.

Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but smile proudly and sent a message: "Hello, Miss Karenina, I'm glad to see that you survived the railway tracks."

At the same time, a socially anxious girl with long bangs was looking at the screen. After seeing this line of words, she found it a bit of black humor.

"Are you really Tolstoy?" Karenina sent a message.

"She did it on purpose. With her top-ranked IQ, how could she not know it was fake?" Zeng Wenjie raised the corner of his mouth. The other party was indeed quite interested in his bad joke just now.

“Really? Please top up 50QB for me to unblock my account first.” Zeng Wenjie replied.

"Hahaha... Then why are you called 'Steel Wool with Unsatisfactory High School Academic Performance'?" Karenina asked.

"Look at my signature! I only tell this secret to rich women." Zeng Wenjie replied with a smile and his fingers flew.

“…” He got a string of Shen Lue numbers.

Perhaps out of genuine curiosity, Karenina sent another message: "I'm a rich woman, tell me."

Zeng Wenjie replied: "The flower language of steel wool is forbearance and wealth."

“????” A series of question marks, Karenina obviously didn’t understand.

"You'll know! Karenina, next time we talk, remember to help me top up QB to unblock it." After Zeng Wenjie replied, he went offline directly.

Karenina was stunned when she saw the other person's profile picture turned gray, then she smiled helplessly.

She gently lifted her untidy bangs, revealing a glimpse of her enchanting face that was enough to charm everyone. Then, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into a small arc.

"What an interesting person." She said softly.

Then, she clicked on a profile picture that was always gray and sent a message: "I'm starting to miss you again. However, I just added an interesting friend today. I hope he can chat with me often."

Zeng Wenjie laughed at the screen. Although the chat record was short, he read it two or three times and was very satisfied.

Hu Guohua, who had just finished chopping someone off, saw his friend grinning obscenely at the computer screen. He couldn't help but ask, "What are you grinning about? Who is this Karenina?"

Zeng Wenjie silently closed the dialog box, rolled his eyes at Hu Guohua, and said, "Knowing too much won't do you any good."

Hu Guohua rolled his eyes in disdain and said coldly, "A man who easily changes his mind."

Zeng Wenjie saw him playing games with red eyes, so he found his friend and sent a message: "Where are you?"

"Surfing the Internet in Yehe." Hu Guohua opened the chat box and typed a response subconsciously.

Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Hu Guohua said angrily, "You are such a jerk! You caused me to lose my equipment!"
