Chapter 488: Chapter 489: The Initial Manifestation of Doomsday

Upon opening the bedroom door, Chu You didn’t immediately go downstairs but instead turned to the door at the very end of the corridor on the second floor. He knocked lightly and instantly, Bao’er’s voice came from inside, "Is that you, brother? Come in."

Upon entering, Chu You saw Bao’er, in her school uniform, sitting at her desk, engrossed in her homework.

Bao’er’s room was awash in warm tones, giving it a very cozy feel. Rays of light from the setting sun permeated the room, seemingly draped in a layer of nostalgia. Seeing the petite girl, Chu You was overwhelmed with memories of his past life. This girl, once she grew up, became his girlfriend, with both sides investing their most sincere feelings towards each other.

My heart still lingers, but what about yours?! He thought to himself, a pang of pain flitting momentarily before he dismissed it. The concept of distance suddenly had a different connotation.

Bao’er seemed to sense something was off. She stopped writing and turned to look at Chu You, who was silently observing her. "Brother, what’s wrong?"

Though Chu You wanted to ask Bao’er why she had knocked on his door earlier, he didn’t know how to bring it up, as it was Little Qiao Red Queen who gave her that instruction. He was playing a game at the time, it’s not like he could tell her that piece of information directly, could he? Why are his room doors locked? The reason was obvious, too.

Little Qiao Red Queen was his biggest secret in real life and Chu You did not wish for Bao’er to meet Little Qiao and consequently, trigger a series of unexpected incidents driven by her curiosity.

"I just came to see Bao’er. Are you doing your homework?" Chu You gently said, as he walked over to Bao’er’s side.

"Yes, the assignments are quite easy. I’m almost done." Bao’er didn’t inquire about the knock on her door.

"Bao’er, how is it at school? Any special events or something?" Chu You felt compelled to ask.

"Well... there is one thing. We are about to start with virtual tech course, our teacher mentioned that it would come with extra charges." As she said the last line, her volume decreased significantly.

"Virtual Tech?" Chu You blinked in surprise.

"Yes, it’s quite similar to the game you play, ’Celestial World’, isn’t it? That’s what it feels like." Bao’er had already found out from her classmates that Chu You spent a lot of time in the game pod, committing to playing ’Celestial World’.

"Oh, how much does it cost?"

Hearing Chu You say this, even though Bao’er knew that Chu You was wealthy and treated her quite well, she still felt a tad uneasy, as the sum was indeed substantial.

"Um, the course fees amount to 150,000." After saying it, Bao’er looked back down at her homework book. When the teacher casually mentioned the course fees, Bao’er had slightly lowered her head, ensuring no one would notice her expression.

What does the most expensive private academy in Yuanjing City look like? At that moment, Bao’er had a clear idea. And this was just for one special course. As far as Bao’er knew, there would be more special course fees to pay in the future. As for the tuition fees, Chu You had taken care of it, so Bao’er did not know the specifics.

"Alright, I’ll make the payment tomorrow. Anything else?" Like the teacher, Chu You didn’t bat an eye at the sum.

"No, that’s it."

"Bao’er, come with me later, we have to go out."

"Ah? Okay!" Bao’er agreed immediately at the idea of going out with Chu You. Just being with Chu You would make her happy. Bao’er cherished the times she spent with Chu You, however, although he spent the majority of his time in the game pod after coming home from school.

"We won’t be eating dinner at home tonight. We’ll go out and have a meal with a beautiful lady."

"Is Sister Luo back?" Upon hearing Chu You say this, Bao’er tentatively asked.

"No, it’s a different lady, I... I’m not very familiar with her either. Finish your homework, don’t rush, just concentrate. I’m leaving now." At the end, Chu You reached out and gently patted Bao’er’s head.

"Um."

Exiting Bao’er’s room, Chu You went downstairs and said to Zhou Zhijun who was preparing dinner, "Sister Zijun, Bao’er and I will be dining out this evening, feel free to plan your own meal."

"Oh? Young Master Chu, you’re going out for dinner?" Zhou Zhijun came out of the kitchen after washing her hands.

"Yes, I’m going to meet someone."

"Alright then, I’ve prepared the ingredients. If you get hungry later, I can cook a midnight snack."

"Hehe, alright then, keep yourself busy. I’m going upstairs."

Entering his room once again, he continued his practice of controlling his special ability, gleaning more insights. Unable to reach Little Qiao Red Queen, Chu You logged onto his computer and visited the Huaxia official forum. The posts, as usual, were filled with comments questioning his rapid level progression, already reaching level 52.

Naturally, countless expressions of envy and admiration were visible. Some players were previously worried that their idol, Night Ghost, would wane in strength, but it seemed that their worries were unfounded.

This made many players realize that posts trashing Night Ghost were indeed just black propaganda. Chu You’s quick ascension in level proved that those underhanded tactics were purely fabrications.

Lastly, Chu You opened an email from the Tianji Intelligence Group, where he found out that the Chu Kingdom Players’ Guild had plans to launch a unified assault on the government fortress of Chu Kingdom.

A strange smile formed on his face as he read this. The content suggested that the Chu Kingdom Guild was meticulously preparing for this from multiple angles. Furthermore, it also mentioned measures to prevent his powerful interference. The Tianji Intelligence Group also clarified one thing: the organization behind this was the Kaleidoscope Guild.

They must’ve been envious of owning a governing fortress for quite a while now. Attempting to attack the government fortress at the 25th level stage was unthinkable in his past life. However, due to his significant butterfly effect in this life, the players developed much quicker than in the previous life, making the impossible possible.

As the daylight outside his window began to fade, a knock was heard at the door, followed by Bao’er’s voice, "Brother, I finished my homework."

"Oh, come in." After turning off his computer, Chu You opened the door to see Bao’er standing outside. She had already changed out of her school uniform, now wearing a chic, warm jacket. Not only had she finished her homework, but she was also ready to go.

"You look lovely. Ok then, let’s go." Chu You said after checking the time.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Zhijun and descending the stairs, Chu You and Bao’er left the house. This time, instead of driving a supercar, Chu You chose to drive a Lamborghini SUV.

"Buckle up."

"Sure." Bao’er, sitting in the passenger seat, was reminded to do so.

Soon after that, the domineering large SUV left the villa, heading towards the urban district.

"Bao’er, what would you like to eat today?" Chu You asked, initiating a conversation.

"Hehe, I don’t know."

"Ok, see the menu and order what you feel like eating."

At the same time, Zhao Feiyan was also ready. She too was driving towards the ’Chuyang Palace’ restaurant.

On his way, Chu You noticed a phenomenon that made him slightly uncomfortable.

This phenomenon felt like the onset of an impending doomsday!
