Chapter 377: Chapter 377: Are You Suspecting Your Girlfriend Is Cheating?
So-and-so grinned. "Hey, pretty streamer, are you as gorgeous in person as you are on stream?"
Renee Jennings didnāt answer his question. Her voice was flat. "So-and-so, is there something you need my help with? If not, Iām going to connect with another viewer."
"Of course I do!" So-and-so said, sounding a little displeased. "Streamer, whatās with you? Why do you have this attitude now that itās my turn?"
Renee Jennings raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on her lips. "I donāt think thereās a problem with my attitude."
[This guy is so rude!]
[The first thing he does is ask if the streamer is as pretty in person... He has no sense of boundaries!]
[This is what they mean by ugly on the inside and out!]
[I canāt even.]
So-and-so hadnāt expected the bullet comments to be roasting him, and he grew annoyed. "What do you mean, āugly on the inside and outā? Itās just because I donāt have a filter on. Iām actually good-looking in person."
[LMAO, first time Iāve ever heard someone praise themselves for being good-looking.]
[He has zero self-awareness.]
[Who gave you this superiority complex...]
The bullet comments made So-and-soās face flush red with anger, but he was unwilling to disconnect, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and ignore them.
He said, "Streamer, there is something Iād like your help with."
Renee Jennings said unhurriedly, "Go ahead and tell me about it first."
"What do you mean, ātell you about it firstā?" So-and-so was confused. "Does that mean you might not help me after I tell you?"
Renee Jennings held her mug. "If itās something reasonable, Iāll help."
"Fine." So-and-so nodded. "Of course itās reasonable! Iām a good citizen; I wouldnāt do anything illegal."
Renee Jennings finished her water, set the mug down, and said nonchalantly, "Then tell me."
So-and-so said, "I met a girl on the subway a while back. We really hit it off, and weāve met up a few times. I got the feeling she was into me, too."
"Is that so?" Renee Jennings raised her eyebrows slightly. "Could it be that you were just imagining it?"
"It definitely wasnāt my imagination!" So-and-so immediately retorted. "She was really enthusiastic, too. Whenever I didnāt message her, she would message me first!"
"I see." Renee Jennings nodded. "And then what?"
"Later, I confessed my feelings to her, and she agreed to be my girlfriend." As he spoke, the relaxed look on So-and-soās face vanished, replaced by a frown. "But recently, I donāt know what happened, she suddenly broke up with me. I find it completely baffling."
A slight smile touched Renee Jenningsās lips. "You donāt know why she broke up with you?"
"No idea." So-and-so looked distressed. "Absolutely nothing was wrong."
"So how do you want me to help you?" Renee Jennings asked.
So-and-so leaned forward, holding a white cat up to the camera. "This is my cat. I had to go on a business trip before, so I had her look after it for a while. When she broke up with me, she gave it back."
"Iām hoping you can help me find out. Did my girlfriend break up with me because thereās another guy?"
Renee Jennings smirked. "So you suspect your girlfriend cheated on you?"
"Yes." So-and-so nodded. "Otherwise, I really canāt think of any reason why she would suddenly break up with me. I didnāt do anything wrong. It couldnāt possibly be my fault."
Though Renee Jennings didnāt know the man, her intuition told her that if the woman was the one who initiated the breakup, he was most likely the reason why.
Her gaze fell on the white cat in the split-screen. She spoke softly, "Hello, little kitty. Iām Renee Jennings. Whatās your name?"
"My name is Cotton."
"Cotton, were you staying at a ladyās house for the last few days?"
"Yes!"
"Then do you know why that lady wanted to break up with your owner?"
"I do!"
Just then, a bullet comment caught the attention of the viewers in the stream.
[Iām one of the people involved. I really didnāt expect this...]
Renee Jennings also spotted the comment and immediately spoke up. "AlmondCandy, is that really you? If it is, donāt leave the stream. Iāll connect with you in a moment."
[Okay.]
Next, the viewers in the stream heard Cotton let out a long series of meows and yowls.
Even though they couldnāt understand a word, everyone listened intently.
Renee Jennings frowned from time to time, a flash of ridicule and disbelief occasionally crossing her beautiful eyes.
[You can tell just how juicy this story is from the streamerās expression.]
[The anticipation is killing me.]
[Those of us who love gossip are eating well tonight.]
After Cotton had relayed the entire story, Renee Jennings looked at So-and-so, her expression complex. "So-and-so, do you really not know the reason your girlfriend broke up with you?"
So-and-so immediately shook his head. "I donāt know. And that AlmondCandy really is her."
Renee Jennings nodded. "Alright. Before I connect with AlmondCandy, let me first tell you what I learned from Cotton."
"So-and-so, you and AlmondCandy were dating for less than a month, correct?"
So-and-so: "Yeah, about that."
"During your relationship, you always chose date spots that were free, like parks or the beach, right?"
So-and-so hastily explained, "We went to the park and the beach because the environment is nice and the air is fresh, not because theyāre free."
"Is that so." Renee Jenningsās lips curled with a hint of mockery. "At the end of the month, AlmondCandy got paid and shared the good news of her raise with you. You took the opportunity to have her treat you to a celebratory dinner, and to introduce your good buddies to her at the same time."
"Yes." So-and-so nodded, looking confused again. "What does that have to do with our breakup?"
"At the time, AlmondCandy picked a restaurant, but you vetoed it," Renee Jennings said coolly. "You sent her a link to a seafood place instead."
So-and-so pressed his lips together, his expression gradually turning ugly. "And then what? Why do you keep talking about this?"
Renee Jennings gave a meaningful smile. "AlmondCandy brought one of her girlfriends, but you, unexpectedly, brought four of your guy friends."
So-and-so fell silent.
"You all ordered a ton of seafood, drank a lot of alcohol, and when it was time to pay the bill, not only did you not sneak off to pay it, you even went to the counter and asked for two cartons of cigarettes to take with you." A look of contempt appeared in Renee Jenningsās eyes. "That meal cost her three thousand yuan."
So-and-so: "..."
[Damn, you made her spend three thousand yuan on one meal? What did she ever do to you?]
[How could you have the nerve to bring four guys to freeload off her? So shameless. And you took two cartons of cigarettes??? Thatās just next level!]
[She definitely should have broken up with him, but AlmondCandy, you silly girl, you should have gotten the three thousand yuan back when you did!]
"I didnāt expect it to cost that much either..." So-and-so retorted. "I was too drunk at the time, thatās why I didnāt pay. I was originally planning to cover the bill."
"Is that so?" Renee Jennings sneered. "You were too drunk to remember to pay the bill, but you remembered to go to the counter and get two cartons of cigarettes?"
So-and-so stammered, "Itās because I was drunk that I..."
[So disgusting!!!]
[And he slandered his girlfriend, saying she broke up with him for cheating. What a scumbag.]
