Chapter 077 Can It Be Tortured Repeatedly?
Watching the growing affection between Tom and Lily. The atmosphere in the private room began to become a bit ambiguous.
At this moment, Rachel suddenly lifted the microphone and asked, "Charles, I want to confirm something with you!"
"What is it? Go ahead." Charles answered in a calm tone.
"Are you the Ultra-rich Patron Mr. Smoke? I saw your Facebook profile picture and name before, you were LonelySmoke, but then you changed your Facebook name!"
As soon as she said this, the originally noisy private room of the karaoke bar fell into deadly silence!
The atmosphere was suffocating!
Everyone's eyes turned to Charles in unison.
Rachel had suspected that Charles was the Ultra-rich Patron Mr. Smoke. But she couldn't be 100% sure.
Charles himself had never admitted it.
There was no proof, so she needed confirmation!
Lisa had the same doubts.
In the past few days, the absolute Ultra-rich Patron, LonelySmoke, had been giving away more and more gifts on various streaming platforms.
He had already given away thirty million dollars!
Originally, it was confirmed that LonelySmoke was Charles!
But now, there was some doubts!
Mostly because Mr. Smoke was too rich and so rich that it seemed unreal!
Even though Charles, being an heir to a fortune, didn't seem like the type to casually splurge 30 million dollars, did he? It was too much!
Lily, Jane, and their roommates Jesse, Tom, Robert, and others. They all looked stunned!
They stared at Charles, seemingly deep in thought!
"I get it now, no wonder so many girls have suddenly shown interest in Charles lately, no wonder his love life has skyrocketed, even Prom Queen Jessica has gotten intimate to him, so Charles' true identity is actually...?" Tom had a look of sudden realization.
"That's amazing, are you really Mr. Smoke, Charles? Mr. Smoke is my idol, such an incredible Ultra-rich Patron is actually my roommate?"
Jesse was equally shocked.
"I finally understand where I lost, if you really were Mr. Smoke, well, I admit my defeat!" Robert sighed.
He had indeed noticed.
Charles' recent behavior had indeed been a bit unusual!
"Mr. Smoke? The one who was trending on Twitter for giving fifteen million dollars in gifts to a female streamer? How is that possible?" Lily pushed away Tom's wandering hand and looked at Charles in shock.
Seven people.
Seven pairs of eyes.
Staring at him intently.
Rachel's question today was meant to expose Charles!
Lisa also wanted Charles to admit it himself.
She had been deceived by Kevin once and didn't want that to happen again.
Charles had always been calm.
But then he suddenly looked just as shocked.
"Oh my God!"
"Are you guys out of your minds? Do you think I'm Mr. Smoke? Do I look like someone who can give a female streamer thirty million dollars?"
"If I had that much money, I'd buy a luxury car, buy a mansion, why would I spend it on gifts, am I crazy? Just to hear someone say I'm awesome?" Charles rolled his eyes.
He directly denied that he was Mr. Smoke.
This identity was a bit sensitive.
If his roommates knew he was so rich, they wouldn't know how to treat with him in the future!
They might even expect him to treat them to meals every day.
The main point was that Charles didn't have much money to treat them every day!
And later on, people might think that he could spend lavishly on online streamers but was stingy with his roommates of three years.
It might cast suspicion on his character!
Charles' immediate denial left Lisa stunned!
"You're not Mr. Smoke, you're really not Mr. Smoke?" Lisa looked at Charles in incredulously.
Her expression was beginning to show some disappointment!
"I'm sure, I'm not Mr. Smoke, I'm Charles, an ordinary junior student, I just won the lottery recently, so I have some money, but I was bragging a bit before." Charles spread his hands.
A look of complete honesty.
"I believe Charles, even though his behavior has been a bit unusual lately, I've been his roommate for three years, I know his character, he wouldn't even treat us to meals often, let alone give a female streamer thirty million dollars!"
"Haha, I was wondering why you suddenly had money to buy brand-name clothes, and it turns out you won the lottery!"
"Awesome!"
The three roommates seemed quite happy and chatted away!
But Lisa and Rachel's expressions changed.
If someone has high expectations of another person, when they find out that reality is not what they imagined, they will instantly feel disappointed, even resentful.
Lisa: Favorability -1
Lisa: Favorability -1
Lisa: Favorability -1
Just like that, Charles noticed that Lisa's affection for him began to steadily decline.
In just a few minutes.
Her affection had dropped to 70 points.
And it seemed to keep dropping.
"Ding! The bound target Lisa's affection for the host has dropped to 70 points. When it drops to 0 points, the bind can be automatically broken. The host can choose to rebind or not!"
'Is there such an option?' Charles was a bit confused!
The Role Reversal target could indeed be unbound.
And it could be rebound a second time?
This was like torturing someone to death!
Could it really be played that way?
Disappointment, despair, Role Reversal, disappointment, despair, Role Reversal...
It could torture someone over and over again.
'The system is so evil!'
However, Lisa's responsereally disappointed him.
Previously, Charles had treated her coldly.
Lisa's affection hadn't diminished at all.
But when she found out Charles wasn't the Ultra-rich Patron Mr. Smoke, her attitude changed immediately.
It was really complicated to understand!
Was a person's status and wealth really so important?
In other words, if Charles really had that status, did Lisa think she was worthy of it?
Had she watched too many soap operas? Or listened to too many fairy tales?
"Lisa, I've noticed your behavior these past few days, I think you're sincerely trying to change, you said before that you would chase me for three years, that really moved me, I think..." Before Charles could finish, Lisa immediately interrupted him!
"Charles, I haven't made up my mind yet, I am a bit confused, can you give me some time?"
