Resonance of Forgotten Futures Chapter 5

It was getting dusk when we left the horse farm. The old man felt sleepy and not as energetic as the young people. Not long after getting in the car, the old man fastened his seat belt and leaned back in the seat to take a nap.

The website was full of requests for updates, so Chen Zan took a look and chose to close his eyes and rest, thinking about the next plot.

With a bang, the sound of the tire exploding was infinitely amplified in the darkness.

The emergency brakes threw my body forward due to inertia and then I was pulled back by the seat belt. This was not a pleasant experience. Jasper Chen looked out the window and saw that the car had not yet entered the city.

Old man: "Don't worry, there are replacement tires."

Jasper Chen saw Dexter Yin close all the windows and said calmly, "The problem may not be the tires."

This road is remote and narrow. It would be fine if the tire was punctured by a sharp stone, but what if it was man-made... haha.

As if to confirm his guess, Dexter Yin turned the light to the brightest and could vaguely see two people in the bushes ahead.

Chen Zan didn't seem nervous: "Since ancient times, taking shortcuts is not allowed."

The old man called the police before he expressed his opinion.

Dexter Yin glanced at the rearview mirror again: "No accomplices."

Although this road is relatively deserted, it is still not unpopulated. The two robbers could not compete with them in patience, so they took out their daggers and went straight to the point.

Jasper Chen unbuckled his seat belt: "I'll go down and take a look."

The old man quickly stopped him: "Don't be impulsive."

Chen Zan made a rational analysis: "When they come forward and block the car door, we will be the ones in a passive position."

Dexter Yin: "The car can still start, so just drive over there."

...

This is really unpretentious.

The old man's throat moved: "Just teach him a lesson, don't let anyone get killed."

Jasper Chen felt that the front part of the car was tilted downwards and frowned: "It's leaking badly, it may not succeed."

The old man pressed the throbbing veins on his forehead. Why are the young people nowadays like gangsters?

The car's starting speed was not as fast as the speed of one of the people rushing up. Seeing that person start to sprint, Chen Zan got out of the car first.

The robber was stunned when he saw his action.

Jasper Chen: "When it comes to fighting, I've never been afraid of anyone."

From childhood to adulthood, whenever someone brought up issues with his parents, Chen Zan never reasoned with them and always used his fists.

The old man couldn't help but open the window: "Take it easy, he has a weapon."

Jasper Chen: "I have one too."

He took off his belt quickly.

Three parts ruffian spirit and seven parts looks, it should have been a very cool move, but the pants slipped down a little.

Jasper Chen's eyelids twitched. He had become thinner due to his frugal lifestyle. His pants, which originally fit him well, were now a little loose.

The robber wanted money, not life, so he waved his knife in the air and walked closer, "Hand over the money!"

Jasper Chen hit him with his belt, and as the opponent dodged, he punched him in the face, then raised his leg high and kicked him hard in the lower body, a typical gangster's fighting style.

Considering that the man had an accomplice, he didn't dare to fight too hard. When he was distracted, he found that his accomplice had already fallen to the ground.

Dexter Yin got out of the car at some point, with a straight posture. Except for his sharper eyes, he still gave people the impression of being a calm and gentle old man.

If Chen Zan had not seen the robber wailing on the ground with his hands on his stomach, he would have almost believed his lies.

Dexter Yin raised his eyes and looked over, stopping at the exposed waistline: "The color is very special."

Jasper Chen pulled up his pants calmly, fastened his belt, looked at him and raised an eyebrow: "What do you think of the light green underwear?"

Dexter Yin shook his head to show respect.

After a lot of trouble, including going to the police station to give a statement, when I returned to the house, I could see a few stars outside the window.

As usual, he turned on his computer and when the dim light on the screen came on, Jasper Chen couldn't help but wonder if he should take a night off. Thinking of the balance on his bank card, he instantly became motivated.

[System: So who is that mysterious man in the peaked cap? ]

Jasper Chen uttered a soft "Oh" as he typed: "So you're also following my writing."

【System: The night is long.】

"Wait," Jasper Chen took a sip of tea and rested, then stroked his chin, "My temper has improved a lot."

Will the system be changed again?

[System: Yes, your predecessor changed jobs.]

Jasper Chen did not attribute the cause to himself, but just said: "I can show it to you now, but you will have to pay to watch it later. If you don't have money, you can use the things in your mall to exchange it."

【system:...】

Jasper Chen's attention was refocused, and the only sound in the room was the typing sound of the keyboard.

[The system is focused on peeking at the screen: Wow, the guy in the baseball cap is actually a stalker fan!

…Oh my god, you guys were fighting.

...Well done, for perverted stalkers, you should call the police.

...What? You found out that he was chasing after other stars, and you beat him up again in anger!

...I can only be a fan of Jiang Ying, all others are garbage?

...You are such a toxic fan! 】

Ignoring the chatter in his mind, his thoughts were very clear today. After publishing the chapter, Chen Zan checked the backend revenue and smiled with fine lines at the corners of his eyes.

Night owls are everywhere. In just a few minutes, he once again single-handedly made Jiang Ying a hot topic.

Before Jiang Ying started acting, she debuted as a member of a group, but the group disbanded because of her fellow group members' interference in other people's families.

At this moment, she had just finished a scene with the crew. Compared with the enthusiasm at the beginning, the actress acting opposite her basically had not spoken to her privately in the past few days.

The agent handed over the water and sighed, "Women's jealousy."

Jiang Ying found it quite novel. With her current status in the entertainment industry, few people would openly show disdain to her.

Agent: "You just happened to suppress the trending searches that the team paid for. How can you not have an opinion?"

Jiang Ying paused while twisting the bottle cap: "Hot search?"

The agent showed her the phone.

The two popular headlines "Jiang Ying fans" and "private fans vs. toxic fans" were hanging one after another.

The agent sighed again: "You are filming now, and the popularity is low. Jasper Chen's incident is just the right time."

Jiang Ying frowned...the timing was indeed very clever.

If the other party does not exaggerate or slander, she will choose to let it go in order to maintain the popularity. If she pursues the matter after taking advantage of the popularity, she will definitely be regarded as a scheming B!tch by many netizens.

He sighed and took the script to ask the director some questions.

Next to the messy glove box, Yan Chengze had a cold expression on his face. He was browsing on his phone and didn't notice anyone coming.

Just as Jiang Ying was about to speak, she saw the following message on her phone screen:

Throw a deep dive and look forward to the next chapter.

...

Jiang Ying coughed lightly, and their eyes met. Yan Cheng concealed the embarrassment in his eyes and returned to his usual sternness: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Ying gave him a deep look and asked, "Is the rain scene tonight or tomorrow night?"

Yan Chengze: "The water truck we contacted won't arrive until tomorrow."

Jiang Ying nodded, turned and left.

The photographer next to him witnessed this scene and asked: "Director Yan, have you also watched "Confessions: The Beginning and Degeneration of Rebellious Teenager's Emotions"?

Yan Chengze said sternly, "We have to shoot in the wild mountains for several months, just take a look."

The photographer had an expression that said, "I understand." Yan Chengze was usually very serious, so he didn't talk much and ran over to communicate with other people.

Unexpectedly, the lighting engineer was a fellow worker: "I secretly gave him tips several times."

Our eyes met and we smiled in tacit understanding...As long as you also read "Confessions", we are good brothers with different fathers and different mothers.

Jasper Chen knew that his book was popular, but he didn’t know that it would also become popular in the crew.

Jasper Chen was suffering from insomnia late at night. There was not even a TV in the house. In order not to lie in bed like an idiot, he turned on the night light and started to check his phone.

It is necessary to arrange a reasonable schedule. While reading the comments, I decided to adjust the writing time to the morning.

[On the willow tree by the pond: Publicizing toxic fans and fighting with sasaeng fans, what did you get? ]

Jasper Chen thought this person was quite interesting and seemed very dissatisfied, but he still gave him a reward. For the sake of the money, he replied: [He was given a ten-day administrative detention.]

The willow tree by the pond was probably shocked by his honest answer, and it posted a whole page of rewards.

The comments changed from insults to mixed reviews. Chen Zan read them for a while and his thoughts gradually wandered.

He couldn't help but think of Dexter Yin.

With superb horsemanship and elegant temperament, he should be a wealthy tycoon. However, every time I heard from the old man in private, he didn't seem like a pure good person. Especially when he faced the dead foal during the day, his indifference seemed to be no different from an ant accidentally stepped on by the roadside.

"System," Jasper Chen asked, "Could it be that Dexter Yin is the biggest villain in the novel?"

[System: Aren’t you the biggest villain? ]

... Jasper Chen was silent for a moment, pursed his lips: "Sorry, I forgot."

The atmosphere fell into a brief awkward moment, and Jasper Chen calmly drank a sip of water: "Does Dexter Yin have any special identity?"

【System: How do I know? 】

Jasper Chen snorted.

[System: The novel revolves around the male and female protagonists. I know everything that is written in the novel, but I don’t know the rest.]

While Jasper Chen was frowning, the system spoke again.

[I have sent a copy to your email address, you can check the plot of the article at any time. ]

"...No need."

He has the memories of his original body and knows basically what happened. Among these memories, there is no information related to Dexter Yin.

Jasper Chen: "In your opinion, is the other party good or evil?"

[System: Evil. Bad company breeds bad people. Most of the people around the villain are villains.]

No logic but makes sense.

A night passed, and in the early morning, Chen Zan arrived at the old man's house on time for dinner.

His cooking skills were average, but his skill at frying eggs was excellent, and the old man praised him highly.

Jasper Chen took out the things she had embroidered overnight and said, "It's just a little something to show my appreciation."

The old man stared at the unrecognizable cross stitch and said, "Is this... Zhu Bajie carrying his wife?"

Jasper Chen raised his head and corrected himself: "The weasel is wishing a happy new year to the chicken."

"The embroidery is very..." I was going to say the image, but I couldn't completely go against my conscience and changed my words to: "Very vivid."

Jasper Chen: "Find a place to frame it and use it as a decoration."

The old man's eyesight is not very good, but it does not affect his basic aesthetic taste: "It may not match the decoration of the room."

"Hang it at the door." This is what Jasper Chen was waiting for: "To ward off evil spirits."

Anyway, the purpose of hanging it up is to serve as a warning to someone just in case.
