The sun setted and neon lights lit up. The barbecue stall by the roadside was shrouded in smoke.
“Go on and eat!”
Sun Mo beckoned to them. The mutton skewer he was holding was dripping in fats and smelling delicious. He swallowed it all in one bite.
The delicious taste of the meat erupted on his taste buds as if giving his tongue a massage. It felt really comfortable.
Sun Mo picked the beer mug and chugged.
Gulp gulp gulp gulp gulp!
Ice-cold beer was really the best gift God had given to men. It was an irreplaceable item in summer.
“Boss! Give me six more bottles!”
Sun Mo shouted out. Seeing that An Xinhui and the other two weren’t moving, he smiled and consoled them. “Don’t worry, I’m here!”
“Teacher, why are you so familiar with the things here?”
Li Ziqi was baffled.
What were those light pillars? Weren’t they too bright? It was as if the dark night had dissipated. There were also metal boxes that were running along the streets that kept on beeping away. They were scarier than the war chariots in ancient times!
However, the most unbelievable things were still the women. They were dressed so lightly, and their clothing was so see-through. How could they dare to go out in such clothes?
It was really indecent!
At the thought of this, Li Ziqi clenched at her collar. (Other than Teacher, I won’t let any other men see my body.)
An Xinhui immediately looked over, wanting to hear Sun Mo’s reply.
Compared to the stone age where people were lacking in clothes and food, this world made An Xinhui panic even more. It was because, in the prehistoric world, one wouldn’t die from starvation as long as they had martial prowess. But here…
An Xinhui saw that two men, who had drunk too much, got into a fight. But soon, a metal box came over and a few men who were dressed in dark blue clothes—presumably constables—came and brought them away.
This meant that violence wasn’t good here.
“Hiccup! This is quite nice!”
Lu Zhiruo was hugging a 2.5L big bottle and chugging down on soda, looking very at ease. Anyway, they were with Sun Mo and wouldn’t starve to death.
“I’m just pretending as if I know things!”
Sun Mo came up with a random excuse.
He had noticed that this era wasn’t the one he was from. They had just started the popularization of mobile phones, and it was the flip phones. Smartphones were nowhere to be seen, and cyber cafes were still very popular.
Sun Mo thought back. This should be around the year 2000. Connecting to the Internet still required dial-up. This was bad. Downloading a p*rn movie would probably need to take a few days.
But there were advantages to this as well. A lot of money-earning methods could still be used. For example, selling health supplements, purchasing licensing rights to games, or even doing business on social networking platforms.
Of course, there was no Wechat here, but similar business models would still exist.
The only problem was that it was against the law. But the laws in this area should still be non-existent.
Heck it. He’d have his fill first before heading to the cyber cafe and spending a night there.
“Go on and eat! Don’t worry, I’ll take care of things!”
Sun Mo urged.
He had a wallet in his pocket with over 100 bucks and also a Motorola phone. His identity in the game was a young man waiting to be employed.
He had become unemployed after graduating from university.
“Teacher, why not change to another place?”
The little sunny egg proposed.
“Why?”
Sun Mo was stunned for a moment before he understood. Even the female great teachers in the Nine Provinces wouldn’t be sized up like this if they were to show their faces in public and teach lessons.
“Alright, we’ll hurry up and leave after finishing these!”
Sun Mo quickened his speed in eating.
A simple and piercing ringtone rang out.
“F*ck, this doesn’t even have eight chords?”
Sun Mo thought back on the old times and picked up the call. “Hello?”
“Sun Mo, where did you run off too? The meal I cooked has turned cold!”
An angry bellow rang out from the phone.
Sun Mo held the phone further away. What was going on? This character came with a girlfriend?
He searched through his memories and realized that he was currently living with his girlfriend. As he hadn’t found a job yet, he was currently sponging off his girlfriend.
“Tsk, he’s someone who sponges off women?”
Sun Mo felt troubled, not knowing how he should reply. Therefore, he shouted, “What did you say? Ah! The signal isn’t good! I can’t hear you clearly! We’ll talk after I get back!”
Click!
Sun Mo hung up the call.
An Xinhui and the other two stared at Sun Mo.
“What’s the matter?”
Sun Mo blinked.
“Teacher, you… seem to be very familiar with how things work!”
Li Ziqi wanted to say (The way you act as a trashy guy is very smooth. You must have deceived many girls in the past, right?)
Sun Mo settled the bill and also asked if there were any cyber cafes nearby. He was planning to spend the night there.
“What about you guys? Are you going home or staying with me?”
Sun Mo had checked with them earlier.
An Xinhui was a teacher in a university and was living by herself. Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo were both Year 1 students in high school. They stayed in dorms and were considered to have a lot of freedom.
“I’ll stay with Teacher!”
Lu Zhiruo raised her hand.
“What are you planning on doing?”
An Xinhui was perplexed.
“Haha, I’ll go and play games!”
Sun Mo looked toward his two students. That wouldn’t lead them astray, would it?
Moreover, what if he was arrested by the police for staying outside the entire night with two underage girls?
“Xinhui, we’ll send them to your residence first!”
Sun Mo was worried about sending the two girls back to school.
“Teacher is treating me like a kid again!”
Li Ziqi’s lips twitched.
“Let’s go!”
Sun Mo urged. However, he had just kept his wallet when he saw a girl who was around 21 or 22 years old riding a scooter and looking around. When she saw Sun Mo, she came charging over.
“…”
Sun Mo was speechless. (Why do I have the feeling that this is my girlfriend?)
“Sun Mo, you asshole! How dare you spend my money to treat other girls to a meal?”
The girl shouted and then jumped up to give him a flying kick from over three meters away.
“F*ck!”
Sun Mo dodged.
“What are you doing?”
An Xinhui frowned and immediately stood in front of Sun Mo. She knew that Sun Mo wouldn’t beat women, and thus she had to step forth so that he wouldn’t suffer.
Li Ziqi quietly picked up a stool. However, it didn’t feel good to use and thus she grabbed a beer bottle.
The design of this bottle was really suitable to grab onto.
It’d definitely feel very good to hit someone’s head with it.
“Who are you?” The girl stared at An Xinhui dubiously. “Can’t I teach my boyfriend a lesson?”
“He’s my fiancé!” An Xinhui argued.
“Sun Mo, what’s going on?”
The girl glared at Sun Mo.
All the youngsters who were eating skewers immediately broke out into a commotion.
“I…”
Sun Mo suddenly felt very upset. (I’m so aggrieved. I haven’t even gotten any benefits yet, but I’m already in trouble?)
An Xinhui knew that there was no way to clarify things and thus pulled Sun Mo’s arm. “Let’s go.”
“You b*stard!”
The girl scolded and raised her hand.
Sun Mo frowned, watching as the girl slapped her hand down. He was about to grab onto her wrist when she dropped to her knees with a plop.
“Sun Mo, don’t leave. I promise that I’ll buy you the latest phone!”
The girl started crying like fountains.
“…”
Even the people who were drinking beer at the roadside stalls were stunned, let alone Sun Mo.
They had thought that the girl was going to beat Sun Mo, not expecting her to suddenly fawn up to him. However, after seeing Sun Mo’s face and figure… f*ck, he really had the assets to be a gigolo.
“You… get up first!”
Sun Mo felt troubled by this.
“Then will you go home with me?”
The girl looked at Sun Mo, wearing an expression like a dog pleading for a bone. She then spoke in a softer voice, “We can do the pose you’ve always wanted to try out at night!”
“…”
Sun Mo broke free from the girl. “I’m sorry, I’m a serious person. Let’s break up.”
If Sun Mo dared to go back with this girl in front of his fiancée, his life would be over.
The girl’s face instantly turned pale.
She looked at An Xinhui, while disappointment and unwillingness rose in her heart.
This lady was too beautiful, and there was no way she’d win against her.
“I love Sun Mo a lot. Without him, I won’t have the motivation to continue living!”
The girl cried and pleaded, “You’re so beautiful. You definitely don’t lack suitors. Can you give Sun Mo to me?”
“Let’s go elsewhere to talk!”
An Xinhui frowned. She didn’t like to be spectated.
The conclusion was that Sun Mo would return to the rental apartment with this girl, while An Xinhui brought Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo back to her residence.
After reaching home, the girl was terrifyingly gentle.
“You can go ahead and fight some demonic beasts!”
Not only did the girl help Sun Mo to switch on the computer, but she even logged into his account, peeled an apple for him, cut it into small pieces, and prepared some toothpicks before bringing them over.
“Why do I feel like a trashy guy?”
Although Sun Mo thought this, he quite liked this kind of life. She also said that they could try out a new position…
At 3 a.m.
“Are you still not sleeping?”
The girl looked very sleepy.
“After I’m done with this dungeon!”
Sun Mo focused on the game. The other players had all died and it was all up to him to wear down this boss.
6.30 a.m!
“I’ll be heading off for work! Breakfast is on the table!”
The girl put on her clothes and walked up to Sun Mo, bending over to kiss him. “Take care of your body!”
After saying that, the girl cleaned up all the trash near the table.
After the girl closed the door, Sun Mo leaned back on the chair.
(Sigh! I’m really useless.)
There was only one bed in the apartment. If Sun Mo didn’t play games, he could only sleep. He didn’t dare to guarantee that nothing would happen then!
Breakfast was beancurd and fried doughsticks, as well as a small dish of preserved vegetables. Other than that, there were also two 100 dollars bills that were clearly an allowance for Sun Mo.
“F*ck, this guy doesn’t even have a job and sponges off on that girl. He’s really trash!”
Sun Mo felt that the creator of this game had very bad tastes.
However, the games within this game were quite fun! Therefore, Sun Mo sat back in front of the computer.
It was just that the connection speed was a little slow! This lag was really upsetting.
…
The next day, An Xinhui had planned on looking for Sun Mo. However, after she went through her character’s memories and found out about the common knowledge, she suddenly wanted to see how this era’s education system was like. Therefore, she went to school.
Attending classes, self-studying in the library, going online at the computer lab… An Xinhui liked this kind of life. One week passed by unknowingly and if it wasn’t because Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo reminded her that they had a mission to accomplish, she’d be immersed in it for a very long time.
“I’m sorry!”
An Xinhui went to look for Sun Mo with the address he had given her.
“Is there no one at home?”
Li Ziqi had been calling for very long, but there was no reply.
“Could something have happened?”
Lu Zhiruo immediately started banging into the door. After three times, the door opened.
“Why have you guys come?”
Sun Mo opened the door and quickly ran back in. “Take a seat anywhere. I’m in a dungeon right now. I’ll chat with you guys later!”
Right now, Sun Mo was wearing shorts, his upper body was bare, and he was also wearing slippers. His hair was very messy, and it looked like it hadn’t been washed for days.
There were many chip crumbs and bags as well as empty soda bottles next to the table.
“F*ck! It’s another failure!”
Sun Mo smashed on the keyboard. He looked toward the three of them and picked up a bottle of soda, chugging it down.
“Should we leave?”
Lu Zhiruo suggested. “Let’s open the door again and then come in?”
The papaya girl felt that they must have opened the door the wrong way.
“The game that you’re playing is a hit recently. Can you teach me?”
An Xinhui had recently learned how to go online and had seen a lot of posts about this game. There were also many people playing this game at cyber cafes.
“…”
Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo exchanged a glance and felt that they should stop these two people. Otherwise, their lives would be destroyed.
“Teacher, why don’t we clear the game first?”
“There’s no hurry! Let’s work hard tomorrow!”
Sun Mo gave up the seat to An Xinhui and taught her how to play the game.
…
At noon, the four of them left the apartment and planned on having noodles at a nearby restaurant.
Sun Mo threw the trash away and hadn’t walked off for far when a young man walked over and picked up the bottles.
“Life isn’t easy!”
Li Ziqi sighed.
This young man was quite tall. If he cleaned himself up, he’d definitely look impressive. However, he was now picking trash for a living.
“You’re wrong! He’s just lazy!”
Sun Mo’s lips twitched. “He eats and lives at the cyber cafe and when he runs out of money, he’ll come out to pick trash. I saw him smoking a pack of good cigarettes that cost 12 bucks per pack when I went to the cyber cafe a few days ago. However, he has some integrity and hasn’t stolen motorbikes!”
“You…” An Xinhui was stunned.
“What’s the matter?” Sun Mo was surprised. “You know him?”
“He… he looks like the Black-White Academy’s Song Huigen, the number one young great teacher in the school!”
An Xinhui didn’t have many interactions with Song Huigen and had only seen him from afar a couple of times.
“That can’t be.”
Li Ziqi didn’t believe that. Could someone who was ranked first in the school end up only being able to pick trash?
No, the most important thing was that this guy lived in the cyber cafe every day. His life was probably destroyed.
An Xinhui couldn’t remember Song Huigen, but he knew An Xinhui, who was ranked fifth on the Devastating Beauty Rankings. When he saw her, he was stunned.
It had been three years since Song Huigen came to this world. He didn’t even know how he should greet her. He lowered his head and took a look at his clothes before turning to run off.
“Wait!”
An Xinhui called out, but Sun Mo pulled her back.
“Let him go!”
Sun Mo understood that under such a situation, men would want to be seen by people they knew.
Due to the episode with Song Huigen, Sun Mo was no longer in any mood to play games. He started to think of the conditions and ways to clear the stage.
“The previous stage is to overthrow the feudal reign. This stage is probably similar!”
Li Ziqi analyzed.
“Impossible.” Sun Mo shook his head. “The modern world is different from the ancient world. Don’t even think about it. I feel that it should be to change this world.”
“Why would you say that?”
An Xinhui didn’t understand.
“Technology changes the future.”
Sun Mo analyzed. “Let’s first get our hands on some money and then go make investments. We’ll then develop a new business and push technological advances.”
Therefore, Sun Mo’s new entrepreneurship started.
“After I have money, I’ll first hire a secretary. One that wears beautiful office wear!”
Sun Mo decided to go all out..
