I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

Chapter 94: Chapter 91 Could it be… she is actually… a brother??? Chapter 94: Chapter 91 Could it be… she is actually… a brother??? This is simply a huge disaster!
Looks like she can’t win just by lying down… Wait, what equipment is worth a million?
The million unit mentioned by Jin Cheng must refer to the exaggerated Virtual Ingots in the game, right?
She quickly did the conversion, a Million Treasures in the game would require a recharge of ten thousand Money.
Holy moly, charging ten thousand Money to buy Million Treasures in the game, for her, that really is the style of a wastrel.
Chen Xixi looked at Jin Cheng’s desperate eyes and boldly guessed, “So as server’s number one, you’re not just propping yourself up with bought equipment, are you?”
Jin Cheng’s eyes dodged, and then he stubbornly argued, “That’s not entirely true, I do have some skill.”
Chen Xixi: I think what you have is some stubbornness.
Chen Xixi thought it was right for his family to stop him from spending extravagantly on the game.
With the competition approaching and Jin Cheng’s equipment snatched away, while she herself had only just started and hadn’t even left Newbie Village… Their overseas travel plans really are…casting a shadow over everything.
Chen Xixi pursed her lips lightly and comforted Jin Cheng, “Don’t worry, difficulties are only temporary. Once you get through this phase, you can get through the next one.”
Jin Cheng gave a forced smile, “… Thank you for the consolation, it’s made my already gloomy mood even darker.”
[They’re so good at chatting, are they courting death～]
[But seriously, don’t say, Chen Xixi’s way of consolation really has a knack to it, it gives a feeling that after listening you don’t need to hesitate about how to live on, because you feel like you’re left with no other choice but death :）]
[Jin Cheng: You terrible guy, you really are too terrible!]
Chen Xixi chuckled, then after pondering for a moment, she spoke, “Having your equipment stolen is fine, not being able to win by charging Money is fine too. In fact, there are ways to play without spending Money. Trust me, I’ll definitely get you back to the top of the server.”
Jin Cheng was momentarily stunned, “…A way to play without spending Money?”
Can he really take the top spot on the server without spending Money? Honestly, he doubted it.
Not because he looked down on Chen Xixi, but players who pour a lot of Money into this type of online game are plentiful.
Winning against those big spenders without spending Money himself seemed really hard.
At least his own experience said so.
When he was spending Money, nobody could beat him.
But he didn’t want to snuff out the fighting spirit she had just ignited with a cold splash of reality.
Actually, he had another plan.
That was to wait until he gets back, use his own phone to call his dear and capable Uncle, have his Uncle invest in the game and send some good equipment his way.
That way, he would certainly continue to carry Chen Xixi!
“Right, a way to play without spending Money,” Chen Xixi said firmly, “Do you only have this one game account right now?”
Jin Cheng: “I have another secondary account, but that one is just for farming monsters usually, so I haven’t spent Money on equipment for it, just basic equipment, and its level isn’t as high as this one.”
“That’s enough, lend me that secondary account.” Chen Xixi logged out of her own account and then handed her phone to Jin Cheng for him to enter his account information.
Once both had their phones charged, they headed back to the village.
[Why didn’t I think of charging at a burger joint! Chen Xixi has a good head on her shoulders!]
[Honestly, I only think of burger joints when I’m looking for a restroom…]
[Can Chen Xixi really get Jin Cheng to the server’s top spot without spending Money? I doubt it!]
[I also doubt it, not to mention her equipment is inferior, Chen Xixi is a newbie, how could this possibly be a win? I think Chen Xixi bit off more than she can chew this time!]
On their way back to the village, Jin Cheng’s stomach didn’t stop growling.
Once inside the village, Chen Xixi turned to Jin Cheng and said, “Do you still have your eggs? If so, take them with you and come with me.”
“I do.”
Not knowing what Chen Xixi wanted to do, but unable to explain why, he just felt an inexplicable trust in her, so he picked up all his eggs and followed her.
On the way, Chen Xixi wasn’t idle either, she picked up any branches she saw.
When she couldn’t carry any more, she asked Jin Cheng to help pick them up.
When has Mr. Jin ever had to pick such things in his life?
Jin Cheng frowned slightly, glanced around like a thief, and asked somewhat disdainfully, “…Forget it, what do you need these for?”
To be honest, it’s kind of embarrassing…
Mr. Jin is having a hard time letting go of his pride.
Chen Xixi didn’t say anything else, just one sentence: “Do you want to eat or not?”
Jin Cheng struggled for a moment but succumbed to his loudly growling stomach in the end.
Upon returning to Chen Xixi’s house, Jin Cheng stood at the door and placed the gathered branches on the ground, dusting off his hands.
Then, he saw Chen Xixi come out of the house with a black pot, followed by her pulling a lighter out of her pocket.
Chen Xixi tossed the lighter to Jin Cheng, “Do you know how to start a fire?”
Jin Cheng caught the lighter, stunned for a moment, about to ask where she got such a badass tool, and then he looked down and saw a shockingly straightforward advertisement on the lighter.
‘Dear husband, are you moved? Don’t even twitch, one move, and… men’s health check-ups only 85 Money, address…’
His cheeks instantly blushed.
He seemed to realize where she had gotten these tools from.
It must have been a free event at the men’s health clinic, which she attended… Wait, how did she, a woman, participate in a men’s health clinic event???
Huh???
Jin Cheng’s brain suddenly short-circuited.
Could it be… is she actually… a brother???
Jin Cheng’s look towards Chen Xixi became instantly complex and intertwined.
Seeing him dazed, Chen Xixi raised her eyebrows and asked, “What are you looking at me for? Do you know how to start a fire or not?”
Jin Cheng’s thoughts snapped back, and he stuttered, “I… don’t know how.”
Chen Xixi handed him a clean plastic lunchbox, “Then you crack the eggs, I’ll start the fire… never mind, forget it.”
She just remembered that her oil hadn’t arrived yet; she couldn’t make fried eggs.
So, fried eggs turned into boiled eggs.
Chen Xixi started a good fire on the stove she set up, placed the pot on it, poured water into the pot, and boiled eggs.
Almost at eight in the evening, Jin Cheng finally had his first bite of food for the day.
He was truly grateful to Chen Xixi for feeding him yet another meal.
Then, his gaze stole a few glances at Chen Xixi.
There were no lights in the yard, only the faint flickering flames reflecting off her face in the dark, like an unintentional filter that added a touch of aesthetic appeal to her, making her look exceptionally beautiful and attractive.
As he ate his eggs, he thought.
She looks so pretty, with her I will never go hungry, and she’s good at saving money at home, really suitable to be his wife.
But that’s assuming… if she’s actually a woman…
[Don’t say it, they’re actually living a pretty good life!]
[Suddenly, I feel such happiness with Chen Xixi, being well-fed and not having to spend any Money.]
[Even if we step back ten thousand paces, can’t they just inexplicably kick Jin Cheng out of the show and let me in for no reason? I don’t mean anything else; I just want to lead a happy life with Chen Xixi and cozy up to a beauty!]
[They don’t have any equipment, and they still aren’t rushing to level up in the game? Still here eating? I see Zheng He is not eating or drinking at home, earnestly working on gaming equipment! And he’s even playing with a girl, how splendid!]
Is Zheng He really not eating or drinking, busily getting gaming equipment?
He’s just starving and using gaming as a way to relieve his hunger.
