My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 94 - 91: Family Shattered

After confirming the date with Zhao Qingge, Li Peifeng left her office, feeling delighted.

There’s still a class in the afternoon, and this platinum author must attend it personally.

One must not forget the people just because they’ve become platinum. One must dive deep into the people, and have fun and learn with them!

However, those couple of posts Li Peifeng made on his social media spread very fast, causing a profound impact, and bringing certain disadvantages, at least making it hard for him to focus on class now.

The calm that should have existed in Japan’s classroom is gone forever!!

First of all, most students gave him strange looks. The gaze of female students was filled with admiration, blossoms, and quiet discussions in private...

"Hey, did you hear? Our campus prince Li is actually a platinum author for female-focused genres? He’ll even hold a lecture tomorrow?"

"The School of Arts and Sciences already knows, of course, and I’ve read his books! They’re quite good, lighthearted and funny."

"A platinum author? I remember Professor Gong from the management department is also platinum, right?"

"No, he’s a master author, one level below platinum author, but focuses on male audiences."

"What’s the difference?"

"Writing as a platinum author for male audiences is harder, it’s easier for female genres, but still tough for regular authors."

Such discussions barely affected Li Peifeng.

The main issue was a few male classmates led by Shen Liao, sitting beside Li Peifeng, poking at him and trying to chat him up with harassment...

"Brother Feng, you’re still attending classes? How dare a big-author like you show up here?"

"Go back, stop attending class, go home and write."

"Between making money and studying, you have to choose one. You can’t handle both! Making crazy money out there while reigning supreme in the class, holding the national first-class scholarship in your major long-term, it puts us brothers in a tough spot!"

Shen Liao even tried to stand on the moral high ground to put pressure: "Brother Feng, you have to treat us to a meal? The classmates in our class are all watching, you must treat us, or the public outcry won’t be quelled, we’re all going crazy from jealousy!!"

"We’ll talk after class!"

Li Peifeng was impatient: "You should pay attention and listen to the lecture during class, stop pestering me, or I’ll smash you guys later!"

The surrounding noise quieted down a bit, but the cellphone kept buzzing.

Initially, Li Peifeng ignored it, thinking it was just some fish from his pond jumping out, seeking attention, so he didn’t bother. But the phone kept vibrating nonstop, so he decided to take a look and then completely mute his phone. Turns out it wasn’t the fish.

It was a big fuss!

First, there were about a dozen missed calls from Xu Manning and voice messages.

Then there was the family group chat, [Happy Family].

Xu Manning: "@Li Peifeng, when did you sign the platinum contract?!!!"

Xu Manning: "Answer the phone, you dog!!"

Xu Manning: "@Li Peifeng, come out and speak!"

Wu Wenyue: "Don’t disturb Li Platinum, Li Platinum is busy chatting with other girls, please queue quietly."

Xu Manning: "(Angry) He didn’t tell you either, right?"

Wu Wenyue: "(Smiling) If posting on social media doesn’t count as notifying me, then indeed he didn’t. I can understand, after all, he is a platinum author now, no time to notify everyone individually, let’s just consider his post as letting us know."

Xu Manning: "I’m so fed up, I’m in class right now, and I only found out because of this bitch."

Then Miss Xu shared several screenshots of her WeChat chat in the group.

The person, noted as ’Bitch No. 1 Wei Rui’, is an account.

Wei Rui was a dorm mate with whom Xu Manning had conflicts before, the fact they still have WeChat is quite surprising...

Wei Rui: "Manning, did you break up with Li Peifeng?"

Xu Manning: "Sort of."

Wei Rui: "Sort of? What do you mean? Not broken up?"

Xu Manning: "Want to break up, but can’t get rid of him, too clingy."

Wei Rui: "Haha, you’re really charming, then you must know what’s been going on with Li Peifeng lately?"

Xu Manning: "?"

Wei Rui: "No way? You’re his girlfriend, don’t tell me you don’t even know this?"

Xu Manning: "??"

Wei Rui: "He’s a platinum author now, all his works are being adapted into movies, I heard he’s earning at least tens of millions a year, you really don’t know?"

Xu Manning: "Oh, I know about the adaptations."

Wei Rui: "You know? Then when did he sign the platinum contract, do you know??"

Wei Rui: "You’re killing me with laughter, taking so long to reply, you must be asking around, huh?"

(At this time Xu Manning was frantically calling Li Peifeng...)

Wei Rui: "Let me tell you, he signed the platinum contract just this afternoon at two o’clock, he posted it on his social media, there’s a timestamp in the screenshot, the whole School of Arts and Sciences knows, they’re saying there’s a lecture tomorrow in Le Yu Building, the school published a notice, so many from other schools also know."

Wei Rui: "In the end, you’re the only one who doesn’t know, you haven’t even broken up with him? You don’t even have him as a WeChat friend probably!"

Wei Rui: "(Smiling) Hahahaha, are you still pretending to be all that here, is it fun?!"

Wei Rui: "Take a look in the mirror, all you have are a few pennies, garbage personality, academic failure, without your parents you’re nothing, someone as handsome and talented as Li Peifeng would be interested in you? He probably got with you because you were too forward, delivered yourself to him, slept with you and then dumped you."

Wei Rui: "And you said ’want to break up, can’t break up, too clingy’, I’m going to throw up, who is dumping whom? Now you’re the bitch being dumped after being slept with, you don’t even know it, and you still shamelessly boast...oh my god!! I’m embarrassed for you!!"

Xu Manning: "Get lost, you son of a #@*!）￥#@#Y*@#&*()!@##(#@"

Xu Manning: "Your mother and father are with me, type another word...#￥@（#￥*@#）"

Next, Miss Xu and ’Bitch No. 1 Wei Rui’ went into a face-off, spraying insults, high mom content, better not to read.

That’s the situation, it’s as it is, neither big nor small...

[Happy Family]

Xu Manning: "@Li Peifeng, I’ll give you two more minutes, if you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll give you an account!!"

Wu Wenyue was still fanning the flames: "Master Li is using the platinum contract pics as bait to fish, busy feeding the fish in his social media, please queue up." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Wu Wenyue: "Secondly, what relationship do you have with him? You just want an explanation? Such a big author, why should he explain to you."

Wu Wenyue: "And it’s also your fault, Manning, for placing gold on your face, say you’ve already broken up with him directly, and there wouldn’t be any follow-up conversation."

Xu Manning: "So it’s my fault?"

Wu Wenyue: "Of course it’s your fault, know your position, Li Platinum is your tenant, my roommate, that’s all. Other than that, one should not expect any other relationship with a big author."

Xu Manning: "You’re right."

"Xu Manning has changed the group name to [Jintian City Apartment Roommates]"

Old Zhou still lecturing on the podium;

"So Schopenhauer says life is like a pendulum, swinging between pain and boredom..."

Li Peifeng finished reading all the group messages, stared dumbfoundedly at his phone screen, deeply feeling that sentence.

Indeed human should not be arrogant, there will always be someone or something to humble you!

Extreme joy leads to sorrow!

He was too pleased with himself at that time, forgot both sending those screenshots in the three-person group chat.

Now, karma is back.

How to handle this?

Shouldn’t be a big problem, after all, he’s a platinum author now, a small mistake is understandable, if not, first forgive, then understand...

Li Peifeng pondered for a moment, then tentatively sent a message in the group.

Li Peifeng: "My little sisters don’t pay attention to what I post on social media and blame me for not notifying you, which understandably makes me seem thoughtless! But how could it be lack of notification? I just thought that such a great joy shouldn’t be told orally, and planned to surprise you at home. However, the news getting out early from others turns my kind intentions perceived as fickle, not receiving any solicitude from you, but instead, blamed for fishing. Ultimately, my true intentions were misplaced, let it be, blame only myself for grandstanding."

He shouldn’t have sent that message, upon sending it...

Xu Manning: "(Disgusting) Have the dog go eat shit!"

"Xu Manning has exited the chat."

Wu Wenyue: "Li Peifeng, remember, I’m two months older than you, so I’m not your younger sister, I’m your father!"

"Wu Wenyue has exited the chat."

[Happy Family]

Rebuilt less than a week, shattered again!

Li Peifeng didn’t get angry but laughed.

"Damn it, I just wanted to create a home for you both, why is it so hard?!"
