After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Chapter 12: Chapter 12 When the Loyal Dog Stops Fawning, The Intelligent Claim the High Ground!

Monday.

Time for class.

Musen Xu got up and looked at his phone's backend; overnight, the game's user count had already surged past the thousand mark.

Just yesterday, he had stayed up late to program hundreds more levels.

This type of match-three game fundamentally relies on randomness, and randomly tweaking a parameter can generate countless new levels. The design is very simple.

Moreover, plenty of players have already attracted a good number of new users overnight, so he expected that from today onwards, people would start to cash out.

That would mean another wave of advertising.

It has to be said, though people constantly mock Pinduoduo's red packet model, its grasp on the user's pain points is incredibly sharp.

One hundred bucks to directly pull in a hundred new users, and indirectly reach thousands more.

Where else are you going to find such a cost-effective advertisement?

This kind of dimension-dropping marketing strategy is basically slaughtering the game in the current market!

Musen Xu was gleefully awaiting the first influx of funds.

But before the funds came in, he needed to figure out how to raise some money, to pay out those who managed to attract enough users for the red packets.

Those first users who received the hundred bucks were the best kind of banner ads.

Musen Xu would rather go without food and drink than delay their payments even a little bit.

Man, where else are you going to find a boss as good as himself?

Musen Xu left the house.

On a normal day, he would go to Ming Yue Yao's house to call her, and they would ride to school together in the car.

It must be said, going to school in a BMW during the heat of summer or winter was quite enjoyable.

But now, Musen Xu was avoiding it like the plague, promptly leaving the residential area on foot. After all, there was a bus stop not far from the gate.

No sooner had he left—

The curtains of a second-floor room in a villa were drawn open.

Ming Yue clenched her teeth; she had specifically woken up early today just to wait for him to take the initiative and knock on her door.

Watching his receding figure from the window, Ming Yue snorted coldly and immediately went downstairs.

"Ming Yue, aren't you waiting for Musen today?"

The housekeeper asked as she saw Ming Yue heading straight to the car.

"Who cares about him! If he wants to squeeze into the bus, just let him!"

Ming Yue's voice sounded cold, but her clenched jaw betrayed the indignation in her heart.

You'd better not set foot in my car for the rest of your life!

...

At this moment, Musen Xu had already boarded the bus after paying the fare.

Though riding in a private car was safe and comfortable, a bus has its merits too: it's cheap and there's no maintenance hassle.

Of course, if Musen Xu had to choose, he would directly opt for his own private fleet!

Ride whichever the hell car he wanted!

Many students from the same school were on the bus, and they couldn't help whispering upon seeing Musen Xu taking public transport.

"Isn't that Musen Xu? He's taking the bus now, must have fallen out of favor with Ming Yue Yao."

"Haha, he publicly humiliated Ming Yue Yao last week; she must have banned him from her car."

"Exactly, what's he got to be so arrogant about? I think letting him even smell the scent of bitter tea would be granting him a New Year's gift..."

Musen Xu turned a deaf ear to the whispers around him.

Adolescent boys are like that, their minds half filled with lust, and the other half plotting toward it.

Of course, there were also girls who sneakily watched Musen Xu.

Although Musen Xu was considered Ming Yue Yao's lapdog,

his own "hardware" was pretty decent.

At a height of 1.82 meters, a well-defined face, and the previously non-mainstream bowl haircut now trimmed into a refreshing short style, his originally clear eyes appeared somewhat deeper.

Even as a lapdog, he was a fiercely handsome 'King of Dogs'!

Ever since Musen Xu declared he was no longer pursuing Ming Yue Yao, quite a few girls had started paying attention to him again.

Just then, a red BMW drove past the bus from behind.

The car window was lowered a crack.

Ming Yue Yao's phoenix eyes, filled with intensity, instantly located Musen Xu in the crowded, sardine-can-like bus.

There were also a few girls who were close to him.

In the midst of the hot summer, these girls nevertheless felt somewhat guilty and chilly, subconsciously distancing themselves further from Xu Musen.

Finally, she gave Xu Musen another glare and rolled up the car window, overtaking the bus.

Xu Musen was a bit helpless, this little tsundere clearly was not willing to give up on her own.

She might find it difficult to lower her face and do something to Xu Musen in public, but with those deathly stares every day, what other girl would dare to come close to him?

Having been reborn, Xu Musen did not plan on living a lonely life.

Yao Mingyue, you better not be hoarding the pit...no, I mean not letting go of the hottie!

Moreover, finding a girl who could withstand Yao Mingyue's aura was really not an easy task...

However, what gave Xu Musen some consolation was that he found someone on the bus playing "Sheep in Sheep's Clothing".

It seemed that the game was spreading quickly among the student crowd.

They arrived at the school.

The lively campus seemed to be wafting with the scents of gardenia and hormones.

Hmm, Mock-orange, this kind of tree should be extinct!

"Xu Musen!"

He Qiang had just reached the school gates too and came over to bump Xu Musen's shoulder directly.

"Your game is awesome, my dad played it too and shared it in his angling group; he actually got a hundred yuan red packet!"

He Qiang was somewhat excited, and Xu Musen smiled: "Of course he got it, I won't owe that money."

He Qiang looked at him and said softly, "But the money you have on you must be running low, right? These past few days, people must be cashing out one after another."

"We'll take it step by step. If it really doesn't work out, I'll ask for some from home. Tighten the belt a bit, and within ten or fifteen days, the first batch of funding will be there."

Xu Musen estimated that with the game's current data, it would be good if three or four dozen managed to cash out before the first batch of funds arrived; he could hold on until then.

He Qiang nodded slightly, wanting to say something, but the bell for class preparation had already rung.

The two of them entered the school.

At this moment, at the school gate, a girl in a light pink long dress, pushing a wheelchair, also slowly entered the campus...

The moment Xu Musen stepped into the classroom, the once noisy atmosphere instantly quieted down a bit.

In the front row of the classroom, Yao Mingyue, with her long hair tied in a ponytail, had skin on her slender neck that seemed to be reflective.

Mondays were for wearing school uniforms, and what seemed loose and casual on others appeared as a fashion piece on her.

Her figure, far superior to her peers, incited envy, and she would occasionally exchange a few words with her besties.

A pair of phoenix eyes that, when not in tsundere mode, actually looked quite attractive when they smiled with a slight squint.

After all, Yao Mingyue's beauty was genuine, becoming the unattainable love of so many boys' youth.

If it had been before, the moment Xu Musen entered the class, he would definitely be met with various teasing and banter.

Xu Musen would also help Yao Mingyue wipe her desk or fetch her a cup of hot water.

But today, Xu Musen just glanced over her figure lightly and sat down with He Qiang in the back rows.

The people in the class were all exchanging puzzled looks.

Yao Mingyue still chatted with her besties with a smile.

Xu Musen was whispering with He Qiang.

Everything seemed exceptionally harmonious.

It felt like overnight these two had become the most familiar strangers.

"Damn, Xu Musen, don't you think the atmosphere is weird?" He Qiang was almost overwhelmed by all these glances, saying softly.

"It's pretty good. The students are all so lively, all future pillars of the country."

Xu Musen laughed heartily, compared to his previous life when he was locked in a room tortured by Yao Mingyue, shaking on the edge of breaking down.

This slight awkwardness was truly refreshing!

He Qiang, however, rolled his eyes, thinking you're bullshitting me, right?

Class began.

Xu Musen picked up the textbook and practice exam, suddenly noticing another amazing thing.

Looking at the questions on the paper, Xu Musen's mind seemed to automatically integrate, as if the optimal solution appeared spontaneously.

He had heard that some people's brains could automatically build a "palace of knowledge" with what they had seen, ready to be used at any time when needed.

Xu Musen felt that after rebirth, his body and spirit were much better than before.

Perhaps this was because the loyal dog had started to give up, and his clever intelligence had retaken the high ground?

Ding~ Your cheat has been delivered~
