Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 853: Chapter 764: Dislocated Lives 52

Nowadays, everyone has to show some care and tolerance towards the Fang Family out of respect for Wen Shuangshuang. It’s not that they are inferior; they are just grateful people. Wen Shuangshuang has helped them so much just so they could help take care of her biological parents. They don’t want Wen Shuangshuang to worry.

However, the more they have to be pleasant to the Fang Family for Wen Shuangshuang’s sake, the more resentment and disdain they feel towards them.

When gathering in private, who doesn’t say that the Fang Family is unsophisticated and lacks clear thinking? If it weren’t for their good daughter, they would have been in poverty after losing their jobs and failing to find new ones, yet they still act superior here, all thanks to the daughter they don’t like.

Currently, the Fang Family’s reputation is as bad as Wen Zhijin’s. However, Wen Zhijin’s circle has expanded beyond her initial group of delinquents, as she now mingles with richer and more fun-loving individuals, frequenting various luxurious and high-class venues.

This kind of lifestyle goes beyond what a few petty hoodlums can afford. These hoodlums just took the money given by Yu Lei and stepped back smoothly, having achieved their purpose.

Wen Zhijin, who now leads a rich life, has already forgotten the warmth and care those hoodlums provided. Although this warmth was fake, Wen Zhijin didn’t know it, but she moved on so easily, proving that she is inherently cold and indifferent.

As Wen Zhijin indulged more and more, she ultimately touched the untouchable: heroin. Even Yu Lei, who spent money to have hoodlums lure Wen Zhijin into delinquency, was shocked by her transformation. Initially, he only wanted to cultivate Wen Zhijin into a pleasure-seeking wastrel. Little did he expect Wen Zhijin to end up playing so wildly and to such an extent!

Heroin is not something to be easily approached. Once touched, it’s not just about money, but life itself. Addiction leads to early death; it’s akin to slow suicide. Few clear-headed individuals dare to touch it.

The rapidity of Wen Zhijin’s descent is jaw-dropping. From starting to hang out with hoodlums to now even indulging in heroin, it has only taken about half a year.

Now, Wen Zhijin is completely ruined. If it weren’t for being the biological daughter of Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun, having them as her background support, those associating with her wouldn’t dare lay a finger on her. Who knows what she might have become otherwise.

Unlike Wen Zhijin’s downfall, Wen Shuangshuang is currently in the spotlight, hosting a grand press conference. The event is to launch an upgraded version of the Ascension to God game, developed under Wen Shuangshuang’s leadership with guidance from numerous Chengfeng Wanli Company technicians.

Previously, the Ascension to God game faced media criticism for being too addictive, causing many to get hooked with adverse effects on health due to long gaming hours, and even impacting students’ studies.

Amidst growing concerns, Wen Shuangshuang’s game upgrade press conference began. This time, Zhu Wanpeng invited more participants for the trial, totaling ten thousand people, excluding those who came spontaneously upon hearing the news. The location of the press conference was a huge outdoor plaza, as an indoor venue couldn’t accommodate so many people wanting to try the game simultaneously.

On the day of the press conference, media reporters, gaming experts, and countless Ascension to God game fans gathered from all directions. Among these fans were seniors in their sixties and children as young as seven or eight. The entire city’s consumption was stimulated, indicating the vast number of attendees.

Wen Shuangshuang herself noticed this issue with the game. It’s not just others; even Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun, during their off days, would stay immersed in the game from morning to night, even skipping meals—an unhealthy habit.

Wen Shuangshuang put in considerable effort over the last six months to address this problem. She didn’t want her game to ruin the present and future generations of countless countries.

The press conference was remarkably grand. Wen Shuangshuang, dressed in formal attire, walked the red carpet with Zhu Wanpeng. Flashlights flashed relentlessly, and the cameras of countless media outlets followed her every step.

Today, Wen Shuangshuang was the main protagonist, so on stage, Zhu Wanpeng merely spoke some courtesy words before handing the microphone to her.

Today, Wen Shuangshuang wore a goose-yellow gown, draped with a pale red sheer shawl. Her hair was casually tied up, with a blue rose hairpin sidelong, presenting a much more composed and mature demeanor, lacking the earlier girl-like spontaneity.

This attire choice was intentional on Wen Shuangshuang’s part. Given the importance of today’s press conference, she wanted to appear more trustworthy, rather than be seen as just a young girl, reminding others of her still being a minor—minors are often perceived as less reliable.

Many reporters attended today’s press conference, including prominent figures in the journalism industry. Seeing Wen Shuangshuang take the stage, a male reporter quickly posed the first question, which was rather sharp.

”Wen Shuangshuang, while the excellence of the Ascension to God game is indisputable, many teenagers, even adults and the elderly, are getting so engrossed they cannot extricate themselves.

Consequently, students neglect their studies, employees slack off at work, and seniors fall ill from prolonged sitting. Continuing this trend isn’t beneficial for the country’s development.

Did you consider this when developing the game? Now, as you proceed with upgrading the game, is it merely for profit, disregarding these issues?”

Wen Shuangshuang glanced at the insignia on the reporter’s microphone—Central Television. She knew who he was even without looking at the insignia; his distinctive face gave him away.

This person was Wen Donglin, a very famous journalist. His stature in the journalism world is undeniable; all his reports pertain to major national affairs. During the last game launch, no journalist of such high standing came to interview.

Although it seemed flattering to have attracted this journalist’s attention, it was not something easy to endure. Being featured in his news guarantees fame, but unfortunately, it’s always infamy, with everyone ending up disgraced nationwide. Thus, no one likes to appear in his news.

Wen Shuangshuang didn’t expect to be targeted by such a high-profile journalist like Wen Donglin. However, while others feared him, Wen Shuangshuang didn’t. She smiled slightly, staying calm and confident, ”Regarding this question, let me tell you, when I was developing the game, I didn’t think much. I just wanted to bring the world in my imagination to reality and share it with everyone.

But soon, I realized the problem you mentioned. It left me feeling helpless and pained. My game was meant to bring joy, not to make people indulge so much that they neglect their studies and life futures.

To correct this flaw in the game, a month after its release, I consistently led our company’s technicians to upgrade the game, aiming to fix this shortcoming.”
