Ch56 - I Sold That to Her.




Editor: Sahloknir
Of course Zhou Jieying wouldn’t rat on Yue Ran.
He just had a falling out with the other omega. If Yue Ran was scolded by the teacher, he would be the person everyone pointed their finger at.
So he couldn’t report it himself, or he would not be able to stand up with all the doubt weighing him down.
And if someone else came, then he would have many ways to clear up his grievances with confidence, and he could also clean up his image by the way, so why not do it? So he just reminded his roommates, thinking that some of them would secretly report to the teacher for their unaccustomed behavior.
If someone else came forward, he would have many ways to righteously clear away his wrongly accused self and wash away his current image. So why would he report it? So that was why he brought it up casually to his roommates, thinking there had to be someone among them that didn’t like seeing Yue Ran’s face and would secretly report it to the professor.
Seeing that they didn’t answer at the moment, he honestly returned to his bed unhurriedly.
Because he didn’t think it would cause much trouble for Yue Ran.
It’s just a bag, if things get out, you only need to sincerely apologize, say that you like Deng Ling, and want to try to make it yourself, Deng Ling, a well-known designer, will definitely not be serious with the students, and the teacher will only lecture after listening to it. A few words, just reduce the impression of Yueran a little bit, unless Yueran bites to death and says that this bag is designed by himself, otherwise there will be no splash.
It was just a bag, when the thing blew up, Yue Ran only needed to sincerely apologise and give a simple reason like admiring Deng Ling and wanted to make one himself. Deng Ling, a well-known designer, would certainly not cause a huge scene with a student. After the teacher heard the confession, there would only be a few harsh words and a stain on Yue Ran’s character. Unless Yue Ran firmly insisted the he had designed the bag himself, there wouldn’t even be a minor splash.
Oh, but Zhou Jieying wouldn’t count on this without the slightest gain.
At least he could see that these people didn’t like Yue Ran much as well.
Zhou Jieying thought in his heart, turned on his mobile phone and logged into the school forum, and soon discovered today’s new gossip – it is said that Yue Ran has an ex-boyfriend – he glanced at it in surprise.
Zhou Jieying thought to himself while unlocking his phone to log in to the university forum. He soon found today’s new gossip—it was said that Yue Ran has a former boyfriend—it made him do a double take.
Several roommates returned to the topic of clothes from earlier and went about doing their own things.
The first person who found the video was very angry, but after pondering over it, the student still sent a private message to their tailoring goddess.
At that time, the person in the centre of discussion had just finished gaming with Jiang Xiao. Hearing Sunken Moon say that there would be a new update, he went to check the official website for the announcement.
The game was about to celebrate its anniversary. In order to hype up the competitive doubles battle, this anniversary’s main focus would be on the arena—they had connected the arena for all the servers.
Yue Ran asked, “What if someone has an account on each server?”
Sunken Moon replied, “If they can get on all of their accounts at once, then you can party with yourself.”
Pure White Sun bought up, “I wonder if you can trade in the arena.”
Sunken Moon pondered, “It should be possible.”
So in theory, if the two numbers are not bound to the same mobile phone number, open two computers, add your own large account and small account respectively, and let the two accounts go to the arena to open a room. Transfer things from the large ones to the large ones.
So theoretically speaking, if two accounts weren’t bound to the same phone number, the user could utilise two computers and log in on both accounts simultaneously, create a custom arena room and transferring their items between their alt account and the main account across different servers.
Pure White Sun said, “That sounds fun, if only they would keep this feature permanent.”
Inked Sun shared, “If enough people participated, maybe the event will return again.”
Yue Ran continued to read the announcement while listening to their chat.
The arena field that opened during this event was called ‘Hero’s Sky City’. It was like a temporary server that connected the arena entrances of all servers. Once they entered the player would be matched with opponents from other servers.

Although there were the five gods in TSSM, that didn’t mean there were no other experts on other servers. Ones that were cultivated in the livestream platform alone accounted for the majority of them.
Now all the masters would focus on the world ranking—just imagine the intensity. This was also the game’s way to attract players to sign up for the competition.
Of course, the game was divided intoPvEand PvP games.
PvE players didn’t like participating in competitions. So naturally the game company planned a series of activities with them in mind on this anniversary.
One of them was very eye-catching, called ‘Mutated Monster Hunting’.
It is said that the big boss in the background of the game once wanted to turn the creatures in the mainland into strange monsters, but was finally sealed by the rangers. Now that the seal has opened a small crack, the strange monsters that were not completely eliminated ran out. Players can kill them to get A certain amount of points, and the points can be exchanged for equipment, mounts, fashions, and rare materials, including materials dropped by world bosses.
It was said that the big boss only mentioned in passing in the game’s lore whose goal was to turn all living creatures in the world into strange monsters, but was sealed by the gathered heroes at the end. Now there was a small crack in the seal, those strange monsters that were not completely eliminated in the past had escaped. Players could earn points by killing them, and the points could be exchanged for equipment, mounts, cosmetic equipment, and rare materials, including raid bosses’ exclusive materials.
The temptation was huge.
As we all know, there is a high probability that there will be materials produced by the world boss among the things needed by rare species, but ordinary casual players may not even be able to touch the world boss, let alone the materials. If they want to get materials, they can only charge a high price, and they have to be lucky to receive them. Nowadays, they can get materials only by being diligent and dealing with more strange monsters. How can it not be exciting.
As every seasonal player knows, among the rare materials needed, most of them required materials that were dropped by the raid boss, but ordinary, casual players couldn’t dream of touching those bosses, let alone getting the materials. If they wanted to get the materials, they could only obtain it at a high price, and they would also need luck. Now they could exchange those materials as long as they grind the event monster with hard work. How could this not be exciting?
As soon as this announcement was released, the world chat was full of screaming players, as they wished the update could go live immediately.
“This event would definitely attract some old players back,” Inked Sun smiled. “Hey, do you think we should form a party?”
Qin Xiujie was listening as a relative and a friend and almost sprayed out the water in his mouth when he heard this suggestion.
The five great gods of TSSM forming an alliance, do they even plan to allow other normal players to participate?
It was doable if it was for fun, but if they wanted to climb to higher rank in a short time, this method was not feasible at all. The queue time would be too long for a team of five.
Sure enough, as soon as Inked Sun suggested, Sunken Moon smiled and asked, “What if we can’t queue up with anyone?”
The arena had a matching algorithm, which only paired players with the same arena points together.
If there was no one in the arena with the same points, they had to wait. If they were really grouped together, they might get stuck in the third level, so the fastest way was to play solo or duo.
He said, “This game announced the competition double battle before the update. There are bound to be a lot of duo teams playing in the arena in this event.”
Inked Sun naturally suggested the idea for fun. After hearing the statement, he didn’t continue to submit bad ideas. Instead, Pure White Sun asked, “Then let’s form two-member parties?”
Yue Ran asked curiously, “Have you guys found a partner for this year’s competition?”
The three immediately went silent.
Yue Ran quietly took this pause in and asked, “Not even a potential candidate?”
They naturally have.
Several people have been playing for three years, and they all have familiar friends. They can find some passerby masters who have not signed a contract with the platform, but to be honest, the level of the so-called passerby masters is actually the same. They were all taken over by them, causing many masters to switch servers later, while the new masters did not choose the old server, and did not play with them at all.
These people have played for three years and were bound to make close friends. They could easily find some passer-by experts who didn’t sign a contract with the platform, but to tell the truth, the level of the so-called bystander experts was nothing to write home about. The reason was that TSSM were too prosperous and the spotlight was occupied by them. As a result, many experts later switched servers, while the newer talent didn’t choose to play in the oldest server, let alone playing with the great gods.
But the great thing about now was the game had created this game mode. They could take the opportunity to find a partner with decent skills!
Mo Yang immediately decided to play solo queue and find a master in the solo queue, and Yue Shen also thought the same way. Just as Bai Zhengyang wanted to follow along, he suddenly remembered what a certain beast had said to him recently, and thought it made sense, so he planned to hold his nose and try double rowing with the beast first.
Inked Sun immediately decided to play solo to find an expert to team with. Sunken Moon thought of the same thing. As Pure White Sun was about to echo, he suddenly remembered what a certain beast had told him recently. He thought it was quite reasonable so he planned to pinch his nose and try to team up with the beast first.
Jiang Xiao and Yue Ran naturally had nothing to add and no one asked for their plan. Of course, the others knew this little couple would be duoing.
Yue Ran chatted with them until lights-out. He went to sleep in excitement, and went to classes the next day with his bag on his back as usual.
One classmate who really liked Deng Ling couldn’t help asking tentatively, “I heard you made this bag yourself?”
Yue Ran replied, “Yes.”
The person pretended to give a compliment, “Wow! You’re amazing!”
Yue Ran was happy from the praise, as he said modestly, “I just made it from random inspiration.”
The other immediately grasped the key point, “Inspiration? So you designed it yourself without reference?”
Yue Ran answered, “That’s right.”
Zhou Jieying, who was sitting nearby, glanced their way when he heard this. He almost felt that he had heard it wrong.
That roommate’s expression changed and his inner feelings were overwhelming, like a raging sea.
He wanted to remind Yue Yue vaguely not to memorize copies, but it turned out to be this answer, and he was impolite immediately, and said in surprise: “Really? I saw Deng Ling’s show, and found that there was a bag that looked like yours. I thought you made it with reference to that.”
At first he wanted to vaguely remind Yue Ran not to plagiarism, but it turned out he got a completely different answer. He was acting less polite and said in surprise, “Really? Because I saw a bag similar to yours in Deng Ling’s fashion show. I thought you used that as your reference.”
Yue Ran replied calmly, “Oh, I sold it to her.”
This statement shocked all the students, and everyone turned their heads at him.
The roommate remembered that Yue Ran had a good background. Maybe this guy really knew Deng Ling, so he was a little cautious in his attitude. Lin Qian didn’t worry as much, let alone doubt his roommate, so he asked in shock, “That’s awesome. You even sold your work? How much did you sell it for?”
Yue Ran replied, “Five hundred.”
Lin Qian: “
”
The crowd: “
”
Five Hundred! That doesn’t even cover the material cost!
Yue Ran noticed their gaze and sat quietly.
He didn’t lie, he really only sold it for 500. After finishing it at his grandma’s house, his mother gave some advice and said that he wanted to get clothes for the show, and asked him to sign a contract a few days later. He didn’t look at it carefully, and went to play after signing.
He wasn’t lying. He really sold the bag for five hundred. After he finished his creation at his grandmother’s house, his mother provided some advice, and then said she wanted to display it for her show. A few days later, she asked him to sign a contract, but he didn’t read it in detail. After signing it, he went on his merry way.
The roommate opened his mouth, closed it, and back again. This repeated several times, obviously, he didn’t know where to start ridiculing.
One is that the personality of his goddess has always been good, and it is definitely impossible to deceive newcomers like this. Second, most of the goddess’ shows are her own works. Even if other designers participate, she will let them together after the show is over. Follow along to show up, and those who don’t come will mention that he saw from the beginning to the end yesterday, and there was no sign of ecstasy at all.
First, his goddess had good moral standing, so she would certainly won’t screw new talent like this. Second, most of the goddess’s show was her own works. Even if there were other designers involved, she would let them shine together at the end. If they didn’t attend the show, they would be mentioned. He watched that video of the fashion show from the beginning to the end yesterday, but there was no trace of Yue Ran mentioned anyway.
He subconsciously wanted to refute, but then the professor entered the classroom so he had to return to his seat with rage filling his stomach.
Lin Qian also slowly recovered from his shock. He searched the limited edition page with his phone and handed it to Yue Ran. The latter took a look at the price above, his eyes immediately turned wide, took Lin Qian to screenshot it and sent it to him, which he forwarded to his mother.
[Yue Ran: Why did you only give me five hundred?!]
[Deng Ling seemed to be busy as she replied after a while: Didn’t you read over the contract you signed?]
[Yue Ran: No!]
[Deng Ling: Well, I’ll give you your first lesson. Remember to read through the entire contract in the future, so you won’t be lowballed.]
[Yue Ran: (rage)]
[Deng Ling: That’s a mutual agreement I made for you personally. Half of the bags’ net income belongs to you.]
Yue Ran blinked as he roughly calculated the amount and found that he had made quite a sum of money. He happily locked his phone and shared the good news with Lin Qian, saying that he wanted to treat his roommate to a big meal sometime.
Lin Qian grabbed the shirt in front of his chest.
Is this a matter of money?
A freshman not only created a work of their own, but also had been put in a show and successfully sold for money. What kind of concept was this? As soon as this kind of resume was reviewed by recruiters, it was all hands on deck to get this type of talent. Oh, not to mention Deng Ling was the candidate’s mother. His friend would never have to worry about not finding a job at all
Lin Qian tried to restrain his hands, preventing the impulse to rush over and hold on the other’s thighs.
This was their second morning class. It ended at noon.
Yue Ran ran to have lunch with Jiang Xiao and spent his free time as he usually would. While his classmates didn’t know whether they were shocked by the five hundred or another reason. He hadn’t heard a peek about the page again. He spent two days quietly, which was also the day the update was dropping.
But he had classes the whole day that day. He could only play once evening arrived.
And even then, he couldn’t immediately start playing that evening, because Chu Yuan messaged him last night, and would come visit him again today.
He was reluctant and wanted to put it off, but Jiang Xiao persuaded him to ‘solve it in one go’. So he enthusiastically agreed. After the last class, he took Jiang Xiao to the first canteen.
Chu Yuan, who was waiting for him at the same spot, saw him coming with a handsome alpha. His former classmate immediately laser focused on their connected hands. He wanted to slice off that offensive hand, so he asked unkindly, “Who is this?”
Yue Ran, annoyed by the other’s tone, introduced, “My boyfriend.”
Chu Yuan: “
