Rebirth Must Be Happy

Chapter 126 [125] From which year did you come back?

"I'd like to see what's so fun about this game?"

After ending his chat with his cousin, Kong Wenbo didn't care about working overtime anymore. He took the opportunity to slack off and started playing games on his phone.

'That's it? ’

As soon as he entered the game interface, Kong Wenbo couldn't help but frown. The pixelated bird was too rough. The pipe graphics were actually not bad, but only so-so, and to a large extent, they were just used to make the pixelated bird look better.

"Boom"

Just as he was thinking this, he crashed into the first pipe and died. Then he saw the death settlement screen appear, and at the same time, he watched an advertisement.

Kong Wenbo didn't pay any attention and played it again, this time focusing intently, determined to beat the game and see what it was all about...

"Boom"

His body was left on the third pipe.

This time, Kong Wenbo lingered on the ad display screen for a few seconds before starting the next game.

"Boom"

The third time, Kong Wenbo scored 9 points and heard a different death sound effect.

"bang"

On his sixth attempt, Kong Wenbo scored 4 points, unlocking yet another different death sound effect.

"Isn't this way too difficult?"

This time, Kong Wenbo subconsciously complained aloud, then ignored his colleagues' gazes and continued playing.

"……never mind."

After contributing to the ad more than ten times in a row, Kong Wenbo stopped. He realized that he had no ability to complete the game at all, but that didn't matter. He had already figured out how to play the game.

It's very simple, just repeat it like a fool.

The problem is that, despite the simple gameplay and the rough setting, he found himself experiencing a brief sense of disappointment, similar to a "stage reaction," when he stopped playing.

He wanted to keep playing to prove he wasn't stupid; he was a little unconvinced and unwilling to accept that his highest score was less than 20 points.

'With this level of quality, and less than a month since its release, it's generating 880 in daily ad revenue?'

After calming down, Kong Wenbo seriously suspected that his cousin had been scammed, so he sent her another message: "Are you close to the classmate who made this game?"

Chen Xingzhu hadn't gotten off the bus yet when she typed a reply: "It's okay."

Kong Wenbo: "Is it a boy?"

Chen Xingzhu: "Mm."

now it's right!

Kong Wenbo had a sudden thought and a reasonable guess came to him. He suspected that the boy was pursuing Chen Xingzhu and had deliberately fabricated this data in order to show off.

He then asked, "Did you see his backend data with your own eyes?"

Chen Xingzhu: "Mm."

Kong Wenbo: "..."

He had assumed the other party would only have empty boasting, and his cousin had never seen any backend data, so he was surprised by the answer.

Chen Xingzhu: "I saw his backend data with my own eyes. In about half a month, his daily income increased from 86 yuan to 880 yuan."

Kong Wenbo: "..."

He hesitated for a moment, unsure what to say, then asked, "Did he do it all by himself?"

Chen Xingzhu: "Mm."

Kong Wenbo: "Self-taught?"

Chen Xingzhu: "Mm."

Kong Wenbo: "Is his academic performance good?"

Chen Xingzhu: "They were in the top ten of their class."

Kong Wenbo: "That's amazing."

Kong Wenbo: "Introduce me to him when you have time."

Chen Xingzhu: "Mm." Kong Wenbo had to go to work, so they didn't chat anymore.

Chen Xingzhu returned home, took out her key to open the door, her parents were at work, and Li Yunxue, who was in her final year of junior high school and not affected by the high school entrance exam, was in school. She was alone at home.

Chen Xingzhu sat in front of the computer and searched for more information about making games, but he couldn't find any more detailed data or examples. So he could only silently pray that the game's popularity would decline after a while, just as Kong Wenbo had said.

'Is it wrong of me to have such high hopes?'

After praying, Chen Xingzhu realized the problem, and silently added in her heart, "I hope he can earn more money when he's making money..."

In this way, he can make money without being misled by constantly making money.

When Xu Jinhuan returned home, he saw that the windows of the living room and balcony were wide open, letting in a cool breeze. Song Zhiyu was sitting on the coffee table, holding Xiao Guai, still reading a novel on her iPad.

She was wearing a pair of light, loose-fitting light green pants, paired with a rather fitted light gray short-sleeved top. The top was short, revealing a section of her fair waist and half of her round navel.
Beside the sofa sat her pair of grass-green slippers, her two fair feet crossed and resting on the back of the sofa. They were small and delicate, and even her toes looked white and round, which was quite adorable.

"I am back."

Seeing that she was still holding the iPad and seemed engrossed in it, unaware that she had come home, Xu Jinhuan called out, "What are you doing?"

"Ah."

Song Zhiyu said in a nonchalant tone, "Reading novels."

Xu Jinhuan asked, "The Three-Body Problem? Which book are you on?"

"Part Two".

"really envy you."

Xu Jinhuan wanted to hear her "why," but after putting her schoolbag back in her room and returning, she still hadn't heard her ask. So she took the initiative and said, "Don't you want to ask why?"

Song Zhiyu finally put down the iPad, turned to look at him, and said, "Then you tell me."

What kind of attitude is that?

Xu Jinhuan said with dissatisfaction, "Are you pretending to be possessed by Chen Xingzhu here?"

"No."

Seeing Xiao Guai lying on the sofa asleep again, Song Zhiyu gently tapped it twice with her soft white feet and casually replied, "Isn't this the normal attitude?"

"..."

Xu Jinhuan was at a loss for words. What he said seemed to make sense. In a way, Song Zhiyu's attitude was exactly what he had expected.

To begin with, the siblings didn't get along well. She suddenly moved in with them because of their parents' divorce. No matter how mature and considerate he was, and how well he could be a good older brother, she still needed time to get to know him.

But in the last half month, Song Zhiyu's behavior has been obviously wrong. But precisely because she has been wrong all along, now that she has become the way she should be and the attitude he expected, he is not used to it.

Xu Jinhuan asked, "Is something the matter?"

Song Zhiyu looked at him, blinked her beautiful almond-shaped eyes gently, and asked with a hint of doubt, "What?"

Her facial features were still pure and sweet, with a touch of youthful innocence, but she no longer had the lively, charming, and naive feeling she used to have.

Previously, she gave the impression of a fifteen-year-old girl, but she was more naive, innocent, and lively, with a touch of childishness; now, she still gives the impression of a fifteen-year-old girl, but she has shed her childish innocence and has become more girlish, more sensible, serene, and beautiful.

"There must be something wrong with you."

Xu Jinhuan frowned, then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked suspiciously, "From which year did you come back?"

"what?"

Song Zhiyu was truly bewildered this time. "What? Which year?"

Xu Jinhuan continued, "Stop pretending. You went back to last night, so you didn't sleep well, right?"

"Is there anything wrong with you?"

Song Zhiyu frowned her delicate eyebrows, wondering if she had changed too much and scared him silly. "If you're confused, go to sleep for a while. Don't act crazy here."

"..."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be faking it, Xu Jinhuan felt a little relieved. He thought to himself, "I'm enough as a reborn person. If there's another one, who will be the protagonist?"
But he still felt something was wrong. Song Zhiyu's expression and tone at this moment were very similar to hers many years later, and even their appearances were not much different.

She has a very youthful appearance, and her appearance hasn't changed much over the years, so there's nothing unusual about it.

But why did she seem like a completely different person overnight, and why did she seem so cold towards me?

If it's not rebirth, could it be a split personality?
