Chapter 529 - 280: What the Hell, This Is a Game? (Part 2)
And they were flooding in, more and more of them.
Chen Jincheng could only think, ’What the hell is this "wealthy and multi-talented" nonsense?’
’Your language arts teachers would resign on the spot. You people can’t even use idioms correctly.’
However, seeing the ever-increasing number of viewers in the stream, he figured Sister Hehe would soon be saddled with the nickname "Wealthy and Multi-talented Sister Hehe."
Soon, Sister Hehe finished playing "Trajectory." She then smiled radiantly and asked the stream, "Chen Jincheng, how did you think I played?"
Chen Jincheng answered honestly, "That was excellent. It sounded great."
"Thank you," Sister Hehe replied immediately. Then, she was seen picking up another phone and starting to use it.
Seeing this, many viewers in the stream suddenly had a bad feeling.
The next moment, a gift of 100 Carnivals from "Sister Hehe’s Alt Account" scrolled across the stream.
Just as they’d feared!
The envy was real!
Seriously, how does a scumbag like Chen Jincheng deserve to be chased by a rich woman like her?
After sending the gift, Sister Hehe couldn’t resist asking, "Chen Jincheng, I won’t make an unreasonable request this time. Can I invite you out for a meal?"
Hearing this, Chen Jincheng couldn’t help but stare at Sister Hehe on the screen for a moment. ’The beautiful, wealthy woman is certainly stunning,’ he thought.
’But if I agree to a meal with her right here on the stream, what happens next time? What if another rich woman, an ugly one, pulls the same stunt?’
’Couldn’t she have asked me privately?’
While he was hesitating, Sister Hehe picked up her phone again. Another gift of 100 Carnivals scrolled across the stream.
Chen Jincheng’s jaw dropped.
’This beautiful, rich woman is trying to just bury me in money.’
’Does she have to be so aggressive about it?’
"Can you, please?" Sister Hehe pressed.
After asking, she picked up her phone again, and another 100 Carnivals scrolled past.
Chen Jincheng immediately caved. "Sister Hehe, I accept! Stop sending gifts! Save some money and buy yourself something nice."
But who would have thought that as soon as he said that, Sister Hehe would be back on her phone, sending another 100 Carnivals scrolling across the screen.
She was treating money like it was nothing.
The viewers in the stream were all dumbfounded.
How many of them were working themselves to death for a monthly salary of ten or twenty thousand, yet here was someone casually dropping over 1.5 million on gifts for a streamer.
And the kicker was, this person was a gorgeous, rich woman who just wanted to ask Chen Jincheng out for a meal.
Talk about envy, jealousy, and hate, right?
When Sister Hehe heard Chen Jincheng’s words, an unconcealable smile bloomed on her pretty face. "It’s fine! My older brother made a hugely successful investment. I gave him half the money my dad gave me to invest, and this time, it earned a five-fold return."
She’d been too direct the last time they’d connected, and she felt it had scared Chen Jincheng. So this time, she took a step back and settled for a meal invitation. Once she got him to meet her in person, once they had that close contact, she was confident she’d have her chance.
But as soon as she said this, the viewers in the stream were utterly stunned. The bullet comments seemed to fall silent for a moment, only to be followed by a dense flood of question marks.
"???"
"???"
"???"
A five-fold return on an investment?
What kind of project was that profitable?
Besides, her father gave her tens of millions, right? Half of that, multiplied by five... that’s a profit in the "small goal" range, isn’t it?
Oh my god!
What kind of top-tier life script was Sister Hehe living?
It was one thing to have a father who could give her tens of millions, but she also had a brother who could lead her to even more profit.
No wonder she treated money like water, dropping 1.5 million in gifts just to ask Chen Jincheng out to dinner.
If they were in her shoes, they wouldn’t care about the money either.
So damn rich you can do whatever you want.
"..." Chen Jincheng opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.
’Seriously, some people are just favored by the heavens. They don’t have to do anything and they’re already at the pinnacle of life,’ he thought.
The next moment, Sister Hehe’s voice piped up again. "Chen Jincheng, you promised! Let’s exchange contact info!"
Chen Jincheng smiled. He wasn’t one to go back on his word. ’It’s just one meal,’ he thought. ’What’s there to be afraid of?’
So, he privately sent his contact information to Sister Hehe.
On the video call, everyone could clearly see Sister Hehe receive the message on her phone, a delighted expression spreading across her pretty face.
She had sent Chen Jincheng so many private messages on Tiao Yin before, but he hadn’t replied to a single one. Now, she finally had his contact info.
"Chen Jincheng, I’ll find a time to ask you out, okay?" Sister Hehe said, satisfied. With that, she disconnected from the call.
Chen Jincheng glanced at his viewer count again. It had already reached over 500,000.
Clearly, Sister Hehe’s appearance had been great for content.
Seeing that things had settled down, he smiled at his audience again and said, "Alright, let’s get back to gaming. I’d also like to recommend a game to you all today."
His words made quite a few viewers complain.
The call with Sister Hehe was such great content!
Keep it up! Call more girls! Who wants to watch you play a game?
But when they saw him click on a game icon on his desktop, everyone froze.
The game was called, "I’m Screwed! I’m Surrounded by Beauties!"
This was because Sister Hong had objected to the previous name, "Ancestral Master Simulator." Her main issue was that for a game made by their own company, Second-Life Star, using such a title was a bit... much.
Most importantly, the name "Ancestral Master Simulator" would have a hard time passing the review process.
As for why, nobody knew. Those were just the review requirements. It was like how novels these days weren’t allowed to feature scumbag protagonists or use the "Ancestral Master" trope.
So, in the end, Chen Jincheng decided to name the game "I’m Screwed! I’m Surrounded by Beauties!", just like in his past life.
As for "Ancestral Master Simulator," they could just let the content clipping accounts use that name for promotional purposes.
As Chen Jincheng clicked the game icon, the game launched. After an initial black screen, a video feed of a room appeared.
