"How long will we have to stay in the hospital?"

In the quiet and clean ward corridor, lights illuminated two furtive figures.

Mother Qu occasionally glanced at the ward door not far behind her, while whispering to the bodyguard in front of her who was dressed as a nurse.

"It's hard to say. The boss didn't give us any accurate instructions. He just asked us to stay here."

The man in nurse uniform but with a bully face was the head bodyguard hired by Ye Kong. If you look closely, you will find that other corners of the corridor, such as the patients leaning on the bench in their coats, the family members waiting by the elevator in casual clothes, and the cleaning staff coming in and out of the toilet door, are actually the professional bodyguards who accompanied Ye Kong to break into the Wen family that day.

"However," the bodyguard leader pushed up his glasses to reduce his presence, and said, "The boss also said that if you want to go back, we can just assign more people to guard near your home - after all, a home is not safer than a hospital."

"Does that mean your boss will have to have fewer people around him?"

"Yes."

"Forget it, I'll just stay here. It will take a long time to heal a broken bone anyway."

Mother Qu sighed: "That child...even though we haven't met formally yet, he's already so stubborn that it really opened my eyes."

The bodyguard shrugged. “I won’t say anything bad about my boss.”

"I didn't say anything bad about her, so please don't spread it!" Qu's mother said quickly, "I was praising her. She is so young, but she is so calm and decisive. Unlike my Ah Wu, she is still sulking."

The bodyguard did not agree with these words, but only asked: "You have been out for so long, won't Miss Qu Wu be suspicious?"

"She was hoping I'd come back later." Qu's mother said, "I don't know what happened today. She was frowning while surfing the Internet. When I came out just now, she looked back and couldn't wait to turn on the computer... I guess she has something important to do."

After a few words, Qu's mother returned to the door of the ward quietly. Through the window glass, she could see Qu Wu frowning in front of the computer.

She didn't say anything and went for a walk in the garden quietly.

The lights in the coffee shop are bright, like a ball of glowing mist in the night. When the light is transmitted to the computer screen through the monitoring equipment, the picture becomes increasingly dark and strange.

But those figures gathered together seemed to glow, or perhaps they absorbed all the light in the room, making the huge empty and deserted space seem so lively.

When Qu Wu saw that scene, she naturally felt a sour feeling that she was unwilling to face - it seemed that it would not have any impact even if she was missing from this group.

pretty good.

She thought expressionlessly, but couldn't suppress the anger rising in her heart, and she immediately slammed the computer shut.

But when his eyes fell on someone who was eating casually at the table, he couldn't help but slow down his movements.

"I'm just gathering information for my newspaper."

Qu Wu convinced himself this way.

After all, the Undead Demon is about to become a real top star. Whoever can get the first-hand information at this time can make a lot of money. She holds the biggest secret that no one knows. Although she cannot expose it directly, she can make a lot of money by scraping some information that can be revealed from the side.

Her eyes were fixed on the silhouette. She silently tapped the keyboard a few times, and the picture and the sound were zoomed in, until the camera accurately captured the person's face in the bustling and noisy dining table, and could even see her fingers holding the water glass.

Whose voice is coming from the headphones?

"So you think that person is really an immortal demon?"

"I think so."

"Not necessarily. The Undead Demon has never been so high-profile before. She should be a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune."

"But who knows? When you are young, you are indifferent to fame and fortune, but when you grow up, you find the importance of money and fame, so you decide to reach out for what you are supposed to have. It is not impossible, right?"

"After all, is there anyone in the world who doesn't like money?"

"What do you think?" Lin Xinzhou bumped into Ye Kong's arm.

Qu Wu saw the girl on the screen nodded and said seriously, "That makes sense."

fart.

Qu Wu said without hesitation in his heart.

She thought about the internet that was almost completely filled with the three words "immortal demon" today. Groups of people were arguing over her online, with discussions going on for waves, while this person was still here leisurely having dinner and chatting, listening to her gossip as if nothing had happened - he was simply too pretentious.

She had never known that Ye Kong was such a good actor. It would be a pity if he didn't become an actor.

But... Qu Wu also wanted to know why she did this.

When she first saw the news today, she did not believe it at all. Just as she had thought just now, although Ye Kong was not a lotus who was indifferent to fame and fortune and regarded money as dirt, to say that she would deliberately seek attention for fame and money, and be mysterious and create topics in a half-hidden way - that was absolutely bullshit.

If she really wanted fame and fortune, she would have done it a long time ago. After all, she still has the killer weapon of Go. She has opened so many Go rooms across the country, and no one knows that she is also a major shareholder. Moreover, Yuanye, the number one genius in the Go world, was also taught by her. If she really wanted fame and fortune and money, she would have just revealed two of her secrets or accepted a few interviews, which would be enough to make her an even more phenomenal topic.

But she didn't.

It seemed like she only wanted to make a fuss about her identity as an "immortal demon".

This in the end is why?

Qu Wu was staring at the man in a trance without realizing it.

She knew that many people were now trying to get the copyright of "Stellaris", and judging by what Ye Kong had done, she was using these actions to increase the value of the Undead Demon and also to increase the value of "Stellaris" - but why?

If it wasn't because she wanted to make more money, she must have some other reason.

A more important reason why she had to do so.

Otherwise, a lazy person like Ye Shiyi could just hand over the copyright of "All the Stars" to a company he often cooperates with to sell it on his behalf. Why bother dealing with those hypocritical and cunning capitals in person?

So, what is the reason why it has to be this way?

As she was thinking, Qu Wu unconsciously turned the directions of several cameras, all of them shook their heads silently towards that person, and then zoomed in together until her figure and her face filled her entire computer screen in 360 degrees without any blind spots.

It seemed as if Qu Wu wanted to see through her movements and even micro-expressions, and thus understand her thoughts - even though Qu Wu herself was unaware of this.

But less than three seconds after completing this action, the person on the screen suddenly stopped holding the cup.

It only takes two blinks of an eye.

The noisy conversations and the rubbing sounds of cutlery in the surveillance video seemed to be lost in a vacuum.

Until the girl looked up without warning, her eyes piercing through most of the coffee shop under the lights, and shot directly at the only camera pointed at her face——

thump—

Qu Wu dodged backwards suddenly, forgetting that he was sitting on the bed, and fell off the bed with a crackling sound.

By the time she got up with a grin and looked at the computer again, the girl on the screen had slowly retracted her gaze and picked up the cup of colorful sugar water... Then, Qu Wu saw that the middle finger of her hand holding the cup was raised.

Qu Wu: ...

"Grass!!!"

Miss Qu let out a loud yell and slammed the computer shut.

Mother Qu hurriedly ran in with her hands hanging down: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"If you ever bother Ye Kong again, I'll be a dog!"

Qu Wu was like a vengeful ghost emitting resentment. After two seconds, he subconsciously changed his words and said, "No, if I care about her again, I will be a pig!"

Mother Qu was stunned for two seconds, then uttered an "uh" sound: "Why must it be changed to a pig? Is the dog not powerful enough?"

……

Qu Wu also realized this problem, and she also realized the answer to this question - it was because Ye Kong always said that she was a dog, and she herself always admitted that she was a dog, so she felt that the oath was powerless.

...even more angry!

Qu Wu slammed the bed hard: "I will never be a beast again! Those days of being treated like a cow or a dog and willing to be humiliated will never come back! I swear to take back my dignity as a human being!!"

"...I don't know what you're talking about..." Mother Qu clenched her fist at her, her expression fierce, "But come on! Mom supports you!"

Qu Wu turned to look at her, and after a while he suddenly laughed for no apparent reason.

Mother Qu came over and said seriously: "Do you want me to buy you some banners to hang in the ward? How about writing 'Never be a dog' or 'Take back your dignity' on them? The straps can also be customized. What do you want to write on them? Mom will tie them with you..."

Qu Wu: ...

It’s not necessary… No, it doesn’t seem impossible. Isn’t it fun?

Late at night, while Qu Wu and her mother were cuddling and wrapped in a quilt, applying a facial mask and browsing an online shopping platform to choose banners, she looked out the window at the dark night.

Now, she seemed to be able to feel more and more vivid happiness.

Even without Ye Kong by her side, even without revolving around Ye Kong, she seemed to have other anchors to support her life.

She wanted to take out the surveillance video to take another look, but her mother was excitedly discussing something with her, so she had to bring her thoughts back to her senses and focus on spending time with her mother again.
