"Damn son, what do you want to do?"

Jing Tian was stunned. Yes, Jing Tian was dumbfounded because he found himself standing right behind the main couple, and he had just been stretching his neck and staring straight at the girl's chest.

Although Jing Tian wanted to explain that he was looking at the stone and not the person, when he saw the security guard's eyes...

No wonder otakus are so perverted. Jing Tian's expression changed, and he looked at Bao Shihong with an admiring gaze, saying, "Brother, I envy you so much. Look how gentle and good your girlfriend is to you. Look at me." Jing Tian showed the two the spot on his shirt where he had wiped his nosebleed: "My girlfriend beat me up like this just because I couldn't buy her a lousy stone." He sniffed as he spoke.

Seeing Bao Shihong's strange look, Jing Tian added more details: "Brother, you don't know, the gemstone incident that was all over the news recently, you know about it, right?"

Seeing Bao Shihong nod, Jing Tian said in a tone as if he had been abandoned: "My girlfriend also liked that stone. She told me, 'I don't want the real one, but at least get me a fake one.' So I went to buy it for her, but when I got there, they were sold out. When I told her... *slap*... I ended up like this."

Seeing Bao Shihong's sympathetic but secretly gloating expression, Jing Tian mentally greeted him with a warm "Sir" and then said with a pleading look: "After my girlfriend slapped me, she took my money and made me repent here for 4 hours. When I saw your girlfriend's gemstone just now, I couldn't help it... Look, Brother."

Jing Tian reached into his pocket, his face froze as he cursed for not bringing his wallet. When he felt his phone, he was surprised again and quickly took it out. In front of Bao Shihong and his wife's puzzled expressions, he demonstrated various functions of the phone. Seeing their expressions as if they were looking at a divine artifact, Jing Tian couldn't help but feel a great sense of superiority...

Adjusting his expression, Jing Tian reluctantly took out the SIM card from his phone and firmly pressed the phone into Bao Shihong's hand, saying: "Brother, I bought this phone for $4000 from abroad, just to exchange it for your girlfriend's 'synthetic' jade!" He emphasized the word 'synthetic.'

Seeing Bao Shihong and his wife about to speak, Jing Tian hurriedly said: "Brother, if you look down on me, forget it. Honestly, I have a carefree life, but I'm strangely in love with my girlfriend. No matter how she treats me, I won't marry anyone else. I know you look down on me, so let's just forget it."

As he spoke, Jing Tian tried to squeeze out some tears, but his tear glands didn't cooperate. He could only keep pressing the phone into Bao Shihong's hand and occasionally glance at his girlfriend's chest...

Bao Shihong's wife gently touched him, and after some thought, he looked at the phone and exchanged a glance with his wife. She handed him the necklace, which he then gave to Jing Tian: "Brother, you've had it tough. This stone is just a few dozen dollars. Take it for your girlfriend. The phone is too valuable, so forget it." He still looked at the phone with reluctance.

Jing Tian was delighted and immediately put on a look of being looked down upon, saying: "Brother, you still look down on me, don't you? For my girlfriend's happiness, I'm willing to do anything. It's not just a phone. If I had my car here, I'd give it to you too. Forget it, Brother, take the phone, let your wife use it. If you refuse, I'll get angry." Saying this, he firmly handed over the phone and turned to leave.

After turning around, Jing Tian's expression changed. He opened his mouth wide, making faces and laughing silently. As he walked, he said in a slightly distorted voice: "Brother, thank you. I wish you happiness~"

Behind him, Bao Shihong and his wife looked at Jing Tian's back and then at the phone, saying in unison: "What a good person..."

Jing Tian hurriedly walked to the back of a building, looked around to make sure no one was there, picked up the jade, kissed it, and laughed strangely, thinking about returning to the space.

After a moment of dizziness, he appeared in the space. He quickly picked up the jade and looked at it again, then smiled in relief. He sensed the "Crazy Stone" space and saw the 'tumor' slowly shrink into a gray ball the size of a soccer ball and remain there.

Jing Tian didn't care much about it. Now there was only one step left. Clutching the jade tightly, Jing Tian thought about returning. After a moment of dizziness, he stood in the room, feeling the sensation in his palm. Jing Tian clenched his hands, opened his mouth wide, and bent over, shouting silently. He only stopped when he felt suffocated, then hugged a pillow and lay on the bed. After rolling around a few times, he sat up, breathing heavily, and opened his hands to look at the emerald green jade. Jing Tian realized that he had used up a lifetime's worth of excitement in one day.

Taking a few deep breaths to calm himself down, Jing Tian casually threw the jade on the bed and got up to turn on the computer. After calming down, he realized there wasn't much to be excited about. Since he could succeed this time, he could get money from any world in the future. At this moment, Jing Tian could proudly say, "I won't worry about money for the rest of my life."

As a semi-otaku, Jing Tian knew what he should do after calming down. There were many novels in his collection about traveling to different worlds, and he naturally needed to plan carefully.

In this world, there were three things that could make him reach the top: money, power, and ability. Money was no longer a concern, and Jing Tian knew he wasn't cut out for power. Getting involved would only get him eaten down to the bones, and he also hated the hypocritical scheming. So, the only thing left was ability.

Opening his bookshelf, he picked out the novels about traveling to different worlds and read through them one by one. Indeed, if he wanted ability, he should go to "Chronicle of a Dopey Teen."

Although many people criticized this trope, it was the easiest world, and the abilities were the most versatile. Telekinesis, flight, and telekinetic barriers were like all-purpose abilities. The only downside was that the barrier couldn't be kept on all the time, and getting hit by a bullet would still kill him. Superhuman physical strength was good, but he couldn't get the bloodline for now...

Thinking about this, Jing Tian couldn't help but slap his head: "How stupid, the Saiyan bodies in Dragon Ball are also strong, and there's the Dragon Balls. I should remember this. This solves the physical strength issue."

Jing Tian stretched and muttered, "As for immortality... let's forget it for now. We'll see if I need it in the future. I probably can't handle the pain of loneliness. If I want it, I can just go to mythological worlds, Dragon Ball, or the Legend of the Flying Dragon to solve it."
