The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

”Not in the mood to go.” Zhang Mengfei set her phone to silent and said absent-mindedly.

”That’s not going to work, you’ve already retaken two courses this semester, what are you going to do next semester if this keeps up?” her classmate persuaded. She also liked playing games, but for her, games were just pastime and entertainment. Playing late in the dorm affected other roommates, so she chose to live outside to play games. But the premise was she played games, not games playing her.

And Zhang Mengfei’s state really was games playing her. Her classmate watched Zhang Mengfei becoming more addicted to games, feeling worried and regretting introducing this game to her.

”I’ll think about it. You go to class yourself. If you can help me answer the attendance, just do it for me,” Zhang Mengfei said, getting up with her phone, not even finishing her meal, and walked out.

The classmate looked at the closed door and sighed inwardly.

Once Zhang Mengfei walked out of the neighborhood gate, she ambled aimlessly. Her mind was pondering about how to resolve the issue this time. Shen Fan was generous and genuinely nice to her. He should also forgive her like Pan Lin did, and then never contact her again.

The phone screen lit up again, it was a call from Shen Fan.

After a moment of thought, Zhang Mengfei decided to pick up the call.

”Shen Fan, I... listen to me, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to...” Zhang Mengfei started as soon as the call connected.

”I just have one question, is everything in the post true?” Shen Fan’s voice was very cold.

She didn’t answer; why was it different from what she expected?

”I’ll ask again, are the photos really not yours?” Shen Fan asked again.

”Listen to my explanation, it’s because I really liked you but was afraid...” Zhang Mengfei struggled to explain, but Shen Fan interrupted before she finished.

”Did you memorize these lines long ago? You said the same thing to the previous Gang Leader; how many times have you used these lines? Am I just one of your fish?” Shen Fan’s voice was cold with suppressed anger.

”I really didn’t, I genuinely like you, I never planned to deceive you...” Zhang Mengfei frantically explained.

Shen Fan said nothing and simply hung up.

Zhang Mengfei was in a state of extreme panic. She desperately tried to call Shen Fan and sent messages, but Shen Fan didn’t respond anymore.

The post online was gaining popularity, and there were more and more insults. Zhang Mengfei secretly followed the post but didn’t dare to respond openly. Game friends were also trying to reach her; regardless of the messages they sent, she didn’t reply, which validated the content of the post. As for the game, she quietly changed servers that night.

She wanted to deal with it coldly, hoping that as the storm passed, everything would gradually fade and be forgotten.

She later tried reaching out to Shen Fan, but Shen Fan ignored her.

Two weeks passed without Shen Fan contacting her, which made her feel relieved, thinking it was all over.

However, two weeks later, she received a lawyer’s letter.

And a call from the lawyer.

The lawyer’s words were concise.

She had to pay compensation.

Not just repay, but compensate.

She had to return the money Shen Fan spent on her and additionally compensate.

Zhang Mengfei was petrified; when had she ever seen such a situation?

She hurriedly called Shen Fan.

This time, Shen Fan quickly picked up her call.

”Shen Fan, we’ve loved each other, I was wrong for using fake photos, but do you have to go this far?” Zhang Mengfei was both frightened and furious.
