49: Chapter 49 The Group Owner Who Plays with Authority
In the hospital room.
After the investigation team left, General Manager Wu Jinkai finally resumed his role as the general manager. He pointed at Wu Yingying and said with a pained expression, "Look at you! You were already frightened, and now you haven't slept all night! How can a girl like you handle such exhaustion? Come back home with me right now!"
Wu Yingying looked down at the hospital bed and said quietly, "He saved me, how can I just leave him here? I don't think it's impossible to fit another bed in here..."
Hearing this, General Manager Wu Jinkai's anger flared up instantly. He put his hands on his hips, tilted his head back, and took several long breaths before pointing at Wu Yingying. "You, you, you..." He stammered several times but was too embarrassed to say anything so scandalous.
Hu Gualing was afraid that the general manager wouldn't be able to catch his next breath, so he quickly helped persuade her, "Young Miss Wu Yingying, I think you should listen to General Manager Wu and go back to get some rest. My injuries aren't much; I'll be fine after resting for ten, twenty, or thirty days."
Wu Yingying knew that Hu Gualing's injuries were no longer serious, so hearing him say this, she couldn't help but smile. "Just focus on recovering; do you really think my father would shortchange you on your salary?"
Seeing his daughter smile like that, General Manager Wu Jinkai knew she had been persuaded. His anger dissipated quite a bit, but he still sighed heavily. His words were less effective than a security guard's!
"You brat, I won't hold the interview matter against you for now. Once you've recovered, I'll deal with you!" General Manager Wu Jinkai threw a threat at Hu Gualing and said to Wu Yingying, "Let's go."
"Then he'll be here all alone?" Wu Yingying was still a bit worried about Hu Gualing.
General Manager Wu Jinkai retorted crossly, "I'll arrange a caregiver for him immediately. I'll arrange ten! Ten enough for you? I'll make sure they take care of everything for him!"
He wasn't acting out of character because of Hu Gualing.
Regardless, Hu Gualing had saved his precious daughter, and he couldn't thank him enough.
But that didn't mean he was willing to lose his daughter in the process.
Wu Yingying didn't dare to provoke her father any further. She nodded obediently, left her number on Hu Gualing's phone, and said to him in a low voice, "Take care of yourself, and call me if you need anything." After saying this, she noticed Hu Gualing staring eagerly at her pocket. She looked down and saw it was that envelope.
A mischievous smile flashed across Wu Yingying's face, then she put on a cold expression and used her seemingly innate commanding tone, "I'll take the bonus and the silk banner for now. Come find me to get them once you've recovered."
Leaving those words behind, she turned and walked away, not allowing Hu Gualing to refuse.
General Manager Wu Jinkai hurriedly followed. As they passed the doorway, he scolded the group of security guards who were still holding fruit and milk, "Leave the things inside and get out of here immediately!"
The group of security guards entered the hospital room nervously, inching along the wall farthest from the bed. They finally managed to put the items down. Looking at the silent Hu Gualing, their mouths twitched as if they wanted to say something, but in the end, they were too ashamed to even say "sorry" and left with their tails between their legs, closing the door behind them.
Hu Gualing sighed with complicated emotions.
Finally, it was quiet.
He could now properly think about what was going on with that game.
He opened his phone, entered the game chat group, and scrolled up.
Regardless, Fantasy Jianghu definitely had some connection with this Text Jianghu.
He'd check to see if other group members had discovered anything first.
As his finger swiped, Hu Gualing stopped.
The chat record in front of him was a screenshot.
[Niao Huateng: This user agreement is interesting, everyone take a look.]
[Niao Huateng: Screenshot.]
Hu Gualing opened the screenshot.
[...Fantasy Jianghu... automatic login at that time... Ascension Gift Pack, containing... This quota is worth 15 fantasy points... 15 fantasy points deducted at once... additional rewards...]
As his eyes swept over each word, Hu Gualing's pupils constricted sharply.
By the time he finished reading the entire screenshot, his scalp was already tingling.
No wonder the newbie gift pack only appeared the second time he entered the game.
No wonder Farmers Three Punches leveled up three times for no reason.
No wonder he owed a huge debt of 15 fantasy points without doing anything.
Everything added up.
So this was the user agreement he had forgotten to click and read that night.
Then he must know the secret of this game!
Hu Gualing suddenly thought of the group owner. Just as he was about to @ him, he noticed a message from the group owner [Supreme Keyboard Emperor] right below the screenshot.
[Supreme Keyboard Emperor: The copyright for Text Jianghu has been acquired. Any subsequent games developed on this basis have nothing to do with this group owner. The information known to this group owner is the same as that of ordinary players. If you have questions, please explore them yourself.]
[Supreme Keyboard Emperor: Also, do not @ me regarding questions about Fantasy Jianghu. One @ equals a one-day ban.]
Hu Gualing: ...
He was certain that the damn group owner definitely knew some secrets, but he was shamelessly abusing his permissions. Even if he wanted to ask, there was no way.
It seemed he would have to wait for [Niao Huateng] to enter the game and explore, and then everyone could exchange information.
Just then, Hu Gualing saw someone @ him at the bottom of the message bar. He clicked it and took a look.
[Drunk Carefree: @Hu Gualing, look, you're both security guards, why is the gap between you and others so big?]
Hu Gualing was a bit confused.
Was there a second security guard in this group besides him?
He waited for two seconds and saw [Drunk Carefree] send an image.
However, perhaps because the hospital signal wasn't very good, the image was still spinning and loading.
Hu Gualing took his phone and walked to the bedside. After waiting a while, the image finally loaded.
He clicked on the image and took a look.
Damn it!
Isn't this the scene from last night where he sat on the ground, nearly passing out after fighting the four Black-Clad Men!?
How was it captured and uploaded to the internet?
