After I Lost My Job, I Became a God by Pretending

Chen Beichen, 38 years old, is a middle-level manager at a major Internet company. After staying in the company for 12 years, he thought he would be stable enough to retire, but a layoff email brought him back to his original form. There are still 23 years left on the mortgage, my daughter has just entered elementary school, and my wife's face is getting uglier day by day. Among his classmates, those who were not as good as him have been promoted and made fortunes, but he has become a joke. On the night when he was standing on the overpass blowing the wind, a mechanical sound sounded in his mind—— [Ding! Detecting the host's strong mood swings of "wanting to act cool", the Everything Can Be Pretended system is officially bound! [As long as you show off in front of others and cause emotional fluctuations (shock/admiration/jealousy/fear) in those present, you can gain pretentiousness points. Pretending points can be exchanged for god-level skills! Chen Beichen thought he was under pressure and hallucinating. Until the next day, at a party where former colleagues were teasing him, he bravely filled a cup—— [Pretending successfully! There were 8 onlookers, and the shock value was 640 points! Redeemable skills: God-level driving skills] From then on, a middle-aged man who was forced to a dead end opened the door to a new world. At a class reunion, while others were showing off their cars and watches, he casually revealed his strength as a martial arts master; at the business negotiation table, the expert team invited by the other party was crushed by his god-level business predictions; at the auction, he used a god-level treasure appraisal to find sky-high price antiques; even at the parent-teacher conference at his daughter's school, he was able to amaze everyone with his god-level piano skills. Pretending is like the wind, always with me. This time, he wants to pretend to be on top of the world.
