Livestream Conflict-solver: The Whole Internet Begs Me for Justice!

44: That evening, a blonde beauty took the initiative to invite me out?Zhang Ze looked at the line of text, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up slightly.

In the middle of the night, a blonde beauty, actively inviting him out?

This plot, he knew it well!

Lying on the bed, his fingers rapidly tapped on the screen, replying with a line in English.

“Depends on what for.”

(Depends on what it is.)

(If it’s a life-and-death duel, I might need to prepare my armor.)

(If it’s just for a cup of coffee, then I can leave anytime.)

The moment the message was sent, the reply was almost instantaneous.

A laughing-crying emoji, accompanied by a line of text.

“Haha, you are so funny.”

(Haha, you are hilarious.)

(It’s a surprise. I promise, it’s a good surprise!)

A surprise?

Zhang Ze raised an eyebrow.

The first thought that flashed through his mind was those few clowns who tried to stage an accident last time.

(Is your surprise related to a certain kind of tea?)

He teased, his meaning clear.

Sera immediately sent a facepalm emoji.

(No! Of course not!)

(Please forget that embarrassing experience!)

Zhang Ze chuckled softly, no longer teasing her.

(Alright, alright, I was just kidding.)

(Tell me, Sera, what is it exactly?)

This time, Sera did not reply immediately.

After about half a minute, a new message popped up.

(I want to invite you to my place.)

(To properly thank you for what happened last time.)

Come to her place?

Zhang Ze was slightly taken aback.

(Your place?)

(Wait a minute, aren’t you an exchange student? I thought you lived in the international student dorms.)

This was his most immediate reaction.

In his understanding, shouldn’t exchange students all live in the dormitories uniformly arranged by the school?

Sera quickly provided an answer.

(Oh, I used to live there.)

(But I didn’t really like the environment there.)

(So... I bought a place.)

... Zhang Ze abruptly sat up from the bed.

He picked up his phone, brought it close to his eyes, and reread the sentence carefully, letter by letter.

“So I bought a place.”

I bought a place.

He blinked, wondering if he was hallucinating because he had fought too hard tonight.

He slowly put down his phone, turned his head, and glanced around his rental room, which was less than twenty square meters and virtually empty.

He looked down again at the rental app still open on his phone screen.

“Riverside No. 1, top-tier river view luxury apartment, monthly rent fifty thousand.”

“Heart of the City, duplex sky villa, monthly rent eighty thousand.”

Here he was, fighting tooth and nail, risking his life for justice and for his fans... barely managing to earn some money, trying to figure out how to rent a better place to give himself and his beloved car a stable home.

Yet... this blonde exchange student, whom he thought came from an ordinary family and needed his heroic rescue... just casually... bought an apartment because she “didn’t really like” the dorm environment?

Is this f*cking reasonable?!

This world is too surreal!

He couldn’t help but let out a dry laugh.

“After all that, I’m the one who needs poverty alleviation...”

He picked up his phone, took a deep breath, and tried hard to make his tone sound less like a country bumpkin who had just emerged from the mountains.

(You bought an apartment?)

(Just like that?)

(Sera, be honest, are you a runaway princess from some small European country?)

Sera sent another laughing-crying emoji.

(Haha, I’m not a princess.)

(My family just runs a small business.)

(So, are you coming or not? I’ve already prepared dinner.)

Immediately following, a map location was sent over.

Zhang Ze tapped to open it.

The location was none other than the most exclusive villa district in Jianghai City!

Zhang Ze had only ever seen the name of this complex in financial magazines and real estate advertisements.

It was said that the starting price for the cheapest flat there was upwards of thirty million.

It wasn’t even in the same league as the “Riverside No. 1” he had just been looking at.

The corner of Zhang Ze’s mouth twitched violently.

“A small business...”

He muttered to himself.

“Is your family’s ’small business’ running a convenience store next to Buckingham Palace?”

He quickly typed a reply on his phone.

(Address received.)

(The Batmobile is warming up. See you in thirty minutes.)

Putting away his phone, Zhang Ze leaped off the bed.

He looked at the T-shirt he was wearing, which was printed with “Serve the People,” and his beach shorts.

He shook his head.

“No way, this outfit is too casual.”

“Today, I don’t represent myself.”

“I represent the face of Dragon Country’s youth!”

“I absolutely cannot be overshadowed by a rich woman from a ’small business’ family!”

He walked over to the dilapidated wardrobe and pulled open the door.

Inside the wardrobe, neatly hung... a row of T-shirts in various colors.

Some were printed with “Serve the People.”

Some were printed with “Professional Nuclear Submarine Repair.”

And there was one, given away during a comic convention event, featuring a huge anime girl’s head.

Below them were several pairs of faded jeans and two pairs of sweatpants.

This was his entire “battle gear.”

Zhang Ze fell silent.

He was plunged into deep self-doubt.

He could almost see Sera’s polite yet awkward smile when she opened the door.

“Absolutely not!”

“No way!”

“You can be poor, but you can’t lose face!”

Zhang Ze paced anxiously around the room.

How about... going to the mall and buying an outfit now?

He pulled out his phone and checked his bank balance.

Over eighty thousand.

Hmm... buying a decent suit should be enough.

But the problem was, what time was it now?

By the time he bought it and came back, Sera’s dinner would be stone cold.

“Ding!”

The system panel quietly appeared in his mind.

[fan favor value Shop]

Zhang Ze’s eyes instantly lit up.

That’s right!

I still have the system!

With a thought, he quickly opened the shop interface.

The dazzling array of goods made him dizzy.

[Skill Category], [Item Category], [Special Category]... He clicked directly into [Item Category].

Then, he typed two words into the search bar.

“Clothes.”
