Chapter 1

I Have Already Become a God, Yet You Tell Me There Are Monsters in the World?

Author: Zhuzi Cheng Xiaobawang

Synopsis:

[Celebrity] [CEO] [Host] [Corpse] [Feces]

One day, a label appeared above everyone's head.

Gu Qing discovered that as long as he approached a certain person, his future trajectory would lean toward that person's label.

Approaching someone with the [Celebrity] label, he would become a celebrity.

Approaching someone with the [Corpse] label, he would become a corpse.

Just as he was hesitating whether to become a capitalist with financial freedom or a towering, powerful politician.

A girl with a [Deity] label slowly walked past in front of him.

1. Mysterious Label

[Laborer]

[Teacher]

[Host]

[Gay]

[Otaku]

Haicheng University, the Living Area, a cafe.

Gu Qing looked at the labels above everyone's head, his heart full of confusion.

What is going on?

Why did a label suddenly appear above everyone's head, while I didn't have one?

And...

It seemed only he could see these labels?

What on earth did these labels represent?

These people's professions?

But what was going on with the two labels [Gay] and [Otaku]?

Could those two even count as professions?

What was even stranger was that these two labels clearly referred to males, so why were they floating above the heads of two girls?

Gu Qing was utterly baffled.

At this moment.

A cold-faced girl with shoulder-length short hair walked over and sat down leisurely opposite him.

The girl wore a white dress, revealing a pair of straight calves, wearing white socks and white shoes below, which, matched with her naturally fair skin, was so beautiful it made people daze.

This was Gu Qing's girlfriend-Bai Ningyu.

Her person lived up to her name.

She was very pale.

Gu Qing liked her very much.

But unfortunately, the two of them were about to break up soon.

However, compared to the matter of breaking up.

At this moment, what Gu Qing cared about more was the label floating above Bai Ningyu's head:

-[Corpse]

What kind of heaven-defying label was this again?

He could barely accept [Gay] and [Otaku] being called professions.

But could this [Corpse] possibly be a profession too?

Gu Qing was truly dumbfounded.

He completely failed to understand the meaning of these labels.

As soon as Bai Ningyu sat down, she didn't waste words and cut straight to the point:

"Gu Qing, although I've already brought up breaking up with you on WeChat, I feel that this kind of matter should still be talked out clearly in person face-to-face, so I invited you to the cafe today to chat simply about it."

"Mm, I understand."

Gu Qing's tone was very calm, and not a trace of sorrow could be seen.

It wasn't that he didn't care about this relationship.

But over the past two months, they had been almost completely out of touch.

They had even stopped exchanging the most basic daily greetings.

Their relationship had long since become a formality.

Although they were breaking up today, they had actually been apart for over two months already.

"Gu Qing, I'm breaking up with you. It's not because I've fallen for someone else. I haven't done anything to betray you."

"It's just... we're destined to be from different worlds in the future. There won't be a happy ending for us."

"So, better to end the pain quickly. I have no choice but to break up with you."

Bai Ningyu explained, reluctant to let go.

Looking at Gu Qing's nearly flawless face, she thought she probably wouldn't find someone as handsome as him again.

"Okay, I understand."

Gu Qing gave a perfunctory response, his gaze fixed on the [Corpse] label the whole time. He was very curious about what it meant.

Could Ningyu have already died?

Had she become a corpse?

Were we separated by life and death?

So...

Was that why she said we were from different worlds?

Seeing that Gu Qing wasn't looking at her and that his reply sounded perfunctory, as if he couldn't care less, Bai Ningyu couldn't help getting angry:

"Were you even listening to me?"

"I'm listening."

"Then where are you looking?"

"I have something I want to ask you."

"Go ahead."

Bai Ningyu tried her best to calm herself down.

The indifferent look on Gu Qing's face made her feel awful.

It seemed she meant nothing to Gu Qing.

If they broke up, then they broke up.

"You just said we're destined to be from different worlds in the future. Do you mean we'll be separated by life and death?"

"What do you mean?"

Bai Ningyu's pretty willow brows immediately knitted together, and her emotions stirred again.

She felt like Gu Qing was cursing her.

Like some bitter woman might say: You heartless man, you abandoned me. I hope you die a horrible death!

"Nothing. I was just asking."

Seeing that Bai Ningyu looked like she was about to get angry, Gu Qing knew he must have guessed wrong.

He and Bai Ningyu hadn't been separated by life and death.

Because someone who'd been guessed correctly wouldn't get angry first. They'd be surprised.

"Take these twenty thousand yuan."

Bai Ningyu steadied herself and transferred twenty thousand yuan to Gu Qing on WeChat.

Gu Qing was confused. "What do you mean?"

Bai Ningyu explained, "It's compensation for the breakup. Since I'm the one who brought it up, I hope you won't hold it against me."

I'm a man, and I can actually get breakup money?

Is this one of the perks of being handsome?

Even my girlfriend feels guilty about breaking up with me.

But...

That's not the point.

The point is-

Ningyu's family was pretty poor. She had to apply for a student loan every year. Where had she gotten so much money?

Seeing the confusion on Gu Qing's face, Bai Ningyu explained without being asked:

"Don't get the wrong idea. I haven't broken the law or committed a crime, and this money didn't come to me without effort. I earned it through hard work. It's money I sweated for."

"Is that why you've been so busy and impossible to reach lately?"

"Don't ask so many questions. It won't do you any good."

Bai Ningyu kept her mouth shut and refused to say anything.

So mysterious?

Gu Qing was puzzled.

Then he thought of the [Corpse] label above her head.

In the end, he couldn't help asking one more question:

"Um... could the thing you've been busy with lately put your life in danger?"

"Why would you suddenly ask that?"

Bai Ningyu looked surprised. "Do you know something?"

Gu Qing shook his head. "I don't know anything."

Bai Ningyu thought that made sense, then warned him earnestly:

"I'm not in any danger, so you don't need to worry."

"But if you want to know about my affairs, you'll be in danger."

"I'm leaving."

With that, Bai Ningyu got up and left, giving Gu Qing no chance to ask anything else.

He watched her leave.

Gu Qing lowered his head and looked at the twenty thousand yuan she'd transferred to him on WeChat, hesitating over whether to accept it.

This was a heartfelt gesture from his ex-girlfriend.

Why agonize over it so much?
