Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Wu Yun had originally wanted to take the opportunity to promote his own games; PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and Honor of Kings were both set to be released on January 1st.

But he realized the timing was wrong, so he kept it to himself.

After seeing Wu Yun finish recording and posting the video, Qi Fei swayed her slender waist, slipped off her slippers, and sat cross-legged next to him, picking up her phone to read the comments on his video.

Wu Yun already had over two million followers by this point, so just a few minutes after the video was posted, many people were already commenting below it.

SprayAndPray: "Is President Wu promoting feudal superstition?"

Transmigrator: "I transmigrated from January 1st, 2015. There really was a stampede!"

ILoveMoney: "The poster is trying to create social panic! Reported!"

GoWithTheFlow: "Thinking about it, with so many people, a stampede could easily happen! I was planning to join the crowd, but I’d better not! I’ll just stay in my hotel tonight and watch the night view of the Bund and Lujiazui. Location: Peace Restaurant. Anyone who wants to watch together, contact me. Girls only!"

ThisIsLiXin: "You’re just trying to show off your place! What do you mean, watch the New Year’s countdown from your own home?! I’m not buying this nonsense! You tell me not to go, and you think I’ll listen!?"

...

Overall, the comments under Wu Yun’s post were polarized.

Some people mocked him or refused to believe it, spouting nonsense. Of course, the possibility that these people were just envious of the rich couldn’t be ruled out.

Of course, there were also some who, after hearing Wu Yun’s advice, decided against going to the Bund for the New Year’s countdown, but they were a small minority.

Much to Wu Yun’s surprise, the Modu City Public Security Bureau replied to him the next day: "The Modu City Public Security Bureau guarantees everyone’s safety. Please feel at ease participating in the event!"

Ever since posting the video, Wu Yun felt the pressure lift completely. After reading the comments, he stopped worrying about what would happen. ’Whatever will be, will be.’ It was like the old saying: When King Yama calls for you, there’s no escape.

Time flew by, and soon it was the evening of December 31, 2014.

DING-DONG~

The doorbell rang. Aunt Wang, who had just finished putting the dishes on the table, hurried over to open the front door.

Song Qin and Zeng Shengnan were already very familiar with Aunt Wang. Seeing no one in the living room, Song Qin smiled and said, "Aunt Wang! Happy New Year! Where are Feifei and the others?"

"Mr. Wu is in the study! Miss Qi seems to be in her room!" Aunt Wang took two pairs of cotton slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to the two women before turning to wash her hands in the guest bathroom.

Feeling the warm indoor air, Song Qin and the other woman skillfully took off their long down jackets and hung them in the designated spot for clothes by the door.

Perhaps hearing the door open, Qi Fei walked out holding her phone, saying, "Okay! Mom! I’ll come back once the holiday starts! My friends are here! I have to go!"

A pleasant, youthful female voice came from the phone: "I don’t care when you come back! But next time you do, I want to see two people!"

After Qi Fei hung up, Song Qin chuckled, "A video call with your mom?"

"Yeah! My mom keeps nagging me to bring Xiaoyunzi home to meet them! Ever since my dad met Xiaoyunzi last time, my mom has gotten even worse. She chews my ear out about it every day."

Zeng Shengnan joked, "Maybe your mom is just eager to have grandchildren! That’s why she’s in such a rush!"

"Ah! I’m not having kids that early!"

After the three of them joked around for a bit, Qi Fei noticed only the two of them had come and asked, "Where’s Yaoyao? Why didn’t she come?"

Zeng Shengnan pouted. "Off getting a room for a date, I bet. It’s not like you don’t know that Peng Dongming kid doesn’t get along with us! They live in the dorms usually, so now that there’s a break, they’ve definitely gone off to explore the joys of baby-making!"

Hearing this, Song Qin burst out laughing. "Shengnan, can you not be so crude! Feifei! Yaoyao said she sent you a message explaining the situation."

Qi Fei then opened her messages. "Oh! I was probably on the video call with my mom for too long and didn’t see it! Where are those two going?"

"Where else could they go!? At this time, after dinner, they’ll head to the Bund to wait for the countdown! They’ll go to a hotel after it’s over, of course."

Qi Fei immediately grew anxious. "Did they not see the video Xiaoyunzi posted?"

"They saw it! Peng Dongming doesn’t buy that stuff!" Zeng Shengnan pouted, clearly not a fan of Peng Dongming. "Besides! Not many people would really believe that kind of spooky, baseless claim from your Xiaoyunzi, right?"

"Time to eat~" Just as Qi Fei was about to say something, she was interrupted by Aunt Wang’s call. She swallowed her words and didn’t bring up Li Yao and her boyfriend again.

"You girls go ahead and sit down. I’ll go get Xiaoyunzi."

Qi Fei knocked and entered the study. As soon as she went in, she saw Wu Yun on a video call with someone on his phone. Judging by the voice, it was probably Bai Yue.

Seeing Qi Fei come in, Wu Yun smiled and said, "Don’t worry! Just ignore those comments online! Everything will be fine after tonight! Go eat! I still have some work to finish up here!"

After Wu Yun ended the video call, Qi Fei smiled. "Was that little sister Bai Yue? When are you going to arrange for me to meet them?"

Wu Yun slapped his forehead, saying with a bit of a headache, "Forget Bai Yue! I’ll take you to meet Wen Meng first during the New Year’s holiday!"

Closing his laptop, Wu Yun stood up, walked over, and wrapped his arm around Qi Fei’s waist. "Let’s go! Time to eat!"

...

Peng Dongming looked at his roommate and his girlfriend, a flicker of disdain crossing his handsome face. "Let’s go! To the Bund! Don’t tell me you guys were actually scared off by Wu Yun’s baseless, psychic nonsense! I’ve been there twice and nothing has ever happened!"

Li Yao had a complicated expression as she tugged on Peng Dongming’s sleeve. "Dongming! Let’s just watch from the outskirts!"

Peng Dongming’s roommate and his girlfriend supported Li Yao’s suggestion.

Seeing that all three of them felt this way, Peng Dongming sighed. "Fine, we’ll watch from the outside for now. If there are no problems, we’re going to the riverfront! I refuse to believe it! A fortune teller told me I’d face a bloody disaster in these years, but nothing has ever happened!"

"It only exists if you believe in it! Let’s go! We can walk over slowly and digest our food. It’s still early, anyway!" Peng Dongming grabbed Li Yao’s hand and started walking toward the Huangpu River.

...

After dinner, Wu Yun didn’t disturb the three women as they chatted about their private matters, instead going to his study to play games.

At 11:20, he finally came out of the study, dragged out a large cardboard box, and began assembling the parts one by one.

A short while later, an astronomical telescope and a camera with a telephoto lens were assembled.

Wu Yun put on his jacket, first setting up and securing the two tripods on the balcony, then mounting the telescope and camera onto them respectively.

Seeing Wu Yun’s actions, the three women also put on their jackets and came out.

By now, it was already 11:30!

His Photography Proficiency Skill allowed Wu Yun to easily adjust the lens, finding the pedestrian staircase at the southeast corner of Chen Yi Square that led to the Huangpu River viewing platform.

After finding the spot, he zoomed back out to a wide shot!

11:35!

Qi Fei, who was looking at the opposite bank through the telescope, cried out in alarm, "Oh no! Something’s happened!"
