Chapter 12
Before Zhao Yuxin's private message could arrive, Chen Jiahao had already clicked into another livestream room.
"Holy shit, is that really Brother Hao???"
"Yeah, yeah, it's Poor Ahao..."
"Damn, calling a guy that rich 'poor' is the ultimate irony."
"When rich people do it, it's self-deprecation. When we do it, it's just a label."
The originally quiet livestream room instantly became lively. The streamer was a girl with heavy makeup.
How to put it... she just looked awkward. She had her beauty filter on, but it wasn't even set up right, to the point where even the door in the background was a little distorted.
Even an amateur like Chen Jiahao could tell at a glance. It seemed the greasy fat man from earlier was right. On the internet today, you could practically gouge your eyeballs out. It wasn't about looks anymore, but who had the better beauty filter technology.
On the surface, she was a cute girl, but once the technology was removed, she was a heavy tank.
"Brother Hao, welcome, Brother Hao!!"
The streamer was overjoyed and immediately called out in her most coquettish voice.
Chen Jiahao decisively exited the livestream room. The girl, utterly disappointed and having been mocked a few times, promptly ended her stream.
He continued to the backend, wanting to see if there were any attractive streamers in the same city he could shower with gifts.
He clicked on a few who looked decent, but unfortunately, the system didn't make any binding sound. Strangely, there had been no binding sound with Tian Tian earlier either.
Could it be that in the system's eyes, Tian Tian didn't even meet the standard??? What exactly was that standard???
Just as he was puzzling over this, he happened to see the message from Zhao Yuxin.
Thinking of this glamorous beauty, a star and moon he could only gaze at from afar in the past, but now, endless wealth had given Chen Jiahao endless courage.
"Continue the voice chat!"
But after a moment's hesitation, he still didn't reveal his identity.
The Zhao sisters were waiting anxiously. When they saw a reply suddenly come in, the two of them even cheered in surprise, forgetting that so many people were watching in the livestream room.
Now they understood the feelings of a simp. Those emotional ups and downs were not something just anyone could endure.
Zhao Yuxin calmed her racing heart and said, unable to hide her pride, "Everyone, it seems Brother Hao doesn't like to chat. He just told me to continue the voice chat."
Her younger sister, Zhao Lele, sat off-camera, watching her sister's stream intently, curious if this tycoon was going to start sending gifts again.
After all, while many people had impressive assets, cash flow was another matter, and disposable cash flow for splurging was yet another thing entirely.
Zhao Yuxin quickly straightened her appearance and clicked on the voice chat option.
Once connected, her delicate brows furrowed. On the other end was a streamer who was slightly above average in looks, the type who claimed to have talent but actually relied on her face.
Most importantly, her outfit was deliberately provocative. One look and you could tell she was the 'big cow' type; the way her chest pushed out was visually striking.
"Oh, little sis, wanna do a PK??"
The other streamer had over a thousand people online and was exceptionally confident from the start, not yet knowing that this was the little streamer being sponsored by Brother Hao.
The heat in Zhao Yuxin's room was gradually fading, but it still maintained a few hundred viewers.
Looking at her top gifter, Zhao Yuxin said haughtily, "Sure, but you'll have to go easy on me, sis."
"What's the penalty???"
"A jiggle..."
At first, she didn't understand, but seeing the other woman thrust out her chest, Zhao Yuxin instantly understood and agreed.
A new five-minute PK began. His two roommates had gone out, and Chen Jiahao, holding his phone, didn't even have time to smoke, letting the cigarette burn away in the ashtray.
As soon as the PK started, Chen Jiahao's eyes turned red as he frantically tapped the Carnival gift button. The scene from before unfolded in all the livestream rooms once again.
This time, with ample time and the experience of sending gifts, Chen Jiahao's years of single-life hand speed began to kick in.
In the past, in his pursuit of Tian Tian, Chen Jiahao had never spent a single cent on gifts. This first time felt especially exhilarating.
Tapping the button continuously, it was another utterly crushing victory.
Carnival x100, Carnival x200...
He kept tapping even after the PK ended. Zhao Yuxin was already moved to tears and quickly reminded him, "Brother Hao, stop sending gifts, the PK is over."
Hearing this, Chen Jiahao froze. He stopped and realized his cigarette had burned to ash.
He lit another one, feeling a bit embarrassed now. As a novice who had suddenly become rich, he truly was a bumpkin. He didn't know that gifts could be sent at any time, not just during a PK. You could send gifts anytime, even after the streamer had gone offline.
Well, as a newly rich bumpkin... it was indeed embarrassing.
The voice chat was still connected. The 'big cow' on the other end said in an extremely coquettish tone:
"Little sis, you're so mean! To have a big brother like that and not say anything beforehand. I would've known not to embarrass myself."
"Brother Ahao, when are you coming to my stream too!!!"
With that, she immediately started jiggling her chest. Good lord, she was definitely not wearing a bra underneath.
The turbulent waves were visually stunning, and the wolves in both livestream rooms instantly cheered. After all, someone with such assets was worthy of praise.
Of course, the platform didn't allow showing cleavage, so whether she had pads or not was debatable.
Seeing this hussy trying to seduce her top gifter, Zhao Yuxin decisively cut off the voice chat and took a sip of water to calm herself down.
At this moment, her livestream room was buzzing with popularity. Several thousand people were online, witnessing the birth of a new tycoon.
"Welcome, new viewers. Please help with a follow and a like. Thank you."
"Thank you so much for your support, Brother Hao. I'm truly overwhelmed by the favor."
At this moment, she was so excited her face was flushed. Glancing at her backend, she saw that the gifts she had received exceeded two million.
Even after the platform took its fifty percent cut, that was still a million. This was a fortune that had fallen from the sky. You have to understand, Zhao Yuxin, a campus belle, came from a merely well-off family.
She had been a goddess, the center of attention, since she was young, but she had never received any decent gifts before college.
The simps and so-called rich kids in college at most gave her phones and iPads. She basically never received jewelry or cash.
The most generous offer was from a contractor who worked at the school, who offered to be her sugar daddy for a hundred thousand (14,000$) a month.
Zhao Yuxin had actually been tempted then, because for her, a hundred thousand was a sum she could spend freely, without having to string along those simps.
But the man's appearance was such that Zhao Yuxin couldn't bring herself to earn that kind of degrading money.
Besides, one of her roommates had been a kept woman before. The deal was twenty thousand (2,800$) a month for pocket money.
You have to understand, in this era that mocks the poor but not at prostitutes, she had told this story herself. No one looked down on her for it; instead, they were envious.
Some girls even had boyfriends at school while being kept by a sugar daddy off-campus. Juggling multiple relationships was the norm.
But tragically, the man only kept her for a month. He was on Viagra every day and night, who knows how much he took. After he got tired of her, he didn't keep for the second month.
The girl was left crying her eyes out... her back was sore from all the action, her mouth was swollen from servicing him during her period, and he had even taken her back door.
All that for just twenty thousand in the end. What kind of deal was that? So, being a kept woman was by no means a reliable long-term meal ticket.
