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

Chapter 104: Chapter 101 Chen Xixi’s Funds Suddenly More Than Doubled! Chapter 104: Chapter 101 Chen Xixi’s Funds Suddenly More Than Doubled! Chen Xixi, who’s extremely sensitive to money, suddenly froze. She looked at Jin Cheng and asked in disbelief, “Is your equipment really worth that much?”
Jin Cheng bluntly said, “Yeah! I recharged several million for this set of equipment! He sold it to me for just one hundred thousand yuan, that buyer got a huge bargain!”
Chen Xixi: “!!!” Am I crazy, or has the world gone mad!
The clothes she wore were worth less than the in-game character’s gear Jin Cheng wore!
Could this be the so-called wealth gap?
She ran maps day and night for free loot just to upgrade her equipment, yet even after the upgrade, it wasn’t top-tier.
But Mr. Jin spent millions to get a top-tier set.
From Jin Cheng’s tone, it wasn’t hard to tell that spending those millions was as easy for him as buying vegetables in the market.
The key point of anger for Jin Cheng in this incident was that the darn scammer didn’t recognize the value and sold his equipment for so cheap.
This is a real young master!
Chen Xixi couldn’t help but feel: “Young master, for someone of your status to come on this kind of show, it really is beneath you.”
Mr. Jin looked at Chen Xixi and nodded in agreement, “I think so too.”
“Let’s add each other on WeChat right now!” Chen Xixi sprung up and asked the crew to return her and Jin Cheng’s phones, then added him as a contact.
After adding on WeChat, Chen Xixi spoke earnestly, “From now on, you’re my only connection to high society! I’ll take care of you in the upcoming episodes, and if you come across any good opportunities, remember to think of me. Also, your uncle, you can give me his WeChat too. I suddenly feel I’m quite suited to be your little aunt!”
Who would want to distance themselves from money!
At first, her impression of the simple and rich uncle was that he was just a little rich, but Jin Cheng could spend millions on gaming top-ups, his uncle must at the very least be a big shot, right?
Turns out she doesn’t like rich people who are too smart.
She’ll give it a shot – as long as there are no defects in the “hardware”, after having kids, she’ll take care of their education, and their IQ surely wouldn’t be as low as Uncle and nephew Jin Cheng!
Jin Cheng looked troubled, “Maybe let’s not worry about adding my uncle on WeChat.”
At first, his idea was simple, to introduce his uncle to Chen Xixi, so she could advance the medical fees for him.
But now the situation was a bit complicated.
The likes of Chen Xixi weren’t his uncle’s type, and besides him, his uncle was always cold and unfeeling towards others.
He was afraid she would take the rejection too hard and be upset.
He didn’t want to see his good buddy get hurt.
Chen Xixi didn’t really care, she smiled and said, “It’s fine if it’s not convenient, having WeChat is enough.”
In the future, having one more connection in the Jianghu she mingled in was a bonus, she hadn’t expected to gain something extra from a show!
[Is Jin Cheng a real young master? Holy cow! I want the young master’s WeChat too! If I can’t have the young master’s, the uncle’s will do! I’m not picky!]
[Hahaha, Chen Xixi really knows what she’s doing! One second she’s defensive: You’re not going to introduce me to your uncle, are you? The next second, once she finds out Jin Cheng is a young master: I think I am very suitable to be your little aunt!]
[Is Chen Xixi really that money-hungry? Licking boots for money isn’t too good, is it?]
[Stop that, you up there. If I could marry a rich man, I’d be even more boot-licking than Chen Xixi! Marrying a man means suffering through life, eating the pie he draws and dealing with mother-in-law issues, so under such conditions, what’s wrong with choosing someone with better conditions to live better!]
[Sobering thoughts! There are too few good men in this world, and without assurance, a stable financial foundation is the choice of adults!]
[What young master! I think Jin Cheng just wants to date Chen Xixi, so he deliberately leads on someone like her who hasn’t seen much of the world! If Jin Cheng was a real young master, would his family really let him join this kind of show? Think about it! Definitely a persona packaged by the show crew!]
Jin Cheng’s status as a real young master quickly sparked a debate among netizens, with half believing that Jin Cheng is a real young master and the other half believing that Jin Cheng was packaged by the show’s team, intentionally flaunting his wealth in front of the camera as a fake young master.
However, after much arguing back and forth, no one could conclude with any real evidence.
Since no one had strong substantial proof, it’s all talk with everyone having their own reasoning.
After Chen Xixi and Jin Cheng spent another day grinding monsters, the game competition officially started the next day.
The two sat in the small flat where Chen Xixi lived, beginning their pre-match preparations.
Chen Xixi glanced at Mr. Jin and comforted him: “Don’t be nervous, just play well like I taught you, and we can definitely win.”
Jin Cheng used to be a player who heavily invested money into the game, so he didn’t really focus on honing his gaming skills, mainly muddling through by suppressing other players with huge amounts of Money.
Now, relying on real skill, he was indeed a bit nervous.
Jin Cheng hummed in agreement, then opened the Guild message to have everyone get ready. Whether they could make a comeback depended on this battle.
About two hours later, Chen Xixi won with her skills, becoming the server’s number one in this event!
Chen Xixi was using Jin Cheng’s alt account, which had tens of thousands of yuan worth of gear invested in it. Coupled with the grinding of the past few days, and with Chen Xixi’s skills, becoming the server’s number one wasn’t very surprising.
But that’s under the assumption that they didn’t know Chen Xixi was a gaming newbie.
“Bro, you’re amazing! We won!!” Jin Cheng, excited, threw down his phone and wanted to give Chen Xixi a victory hug but was pushed away by her hand.
Chen Xixi slightly curled her lips: “Not bad.”
She had taken the server’s number one. With her covering Jin Cheng, he could easily take second or third even if not the second place.
Jin Cheng, who was pushed away, didn’t think too much of it. His brain was filled with excitement, leaving no time to consider anything else, “We don’t have to starve anymore! We can travel abroad!”
[Holy cow! Chen Xixi actually won!]
[The key point is that she’s still a gaming newbie! Although the account is Jin Cheng’s practiced alt, being able to secure the server’s number one so quickly also shows that Chen Xixi’s skills are really impressive!]
[You all see how quickly she got the server’s number one, but did you forget how late Chen Xixi stayed up to grind levels and gear? I think it’s her effort that paid off, she deserves it!!]
[Am I starting to ship these two? Them going abroad together for a trip for free, feels like sparks could fly!]
[How come it’s just the two of them going abroad? Obviously, there’s a third person, okay? There’s also a second place!]
[Ah right! There’s an extra wheel too, the one that’s responsible for being the third wheel and eating dog food, hahaha!]
In Zheng He’s streaming room.
Zheng He, having witnessed Chen Xixi taking the first place in the game, was almost driven crazy with jealousy!
If his account hadn’t been hacked, that number one spot should have been his!
Now that he’s left with no gear, not to mention the top three of the entire server, he can’t even make it into the top ten!
He was so angry he was itching for a fight.
But when he saw the financial rankings of all the guests in the afternoon, he completely lost his mind!
How did Chen Xixi’s funds become 5514 yuan?
How did it suddenly more than double?!
Could there be a mistake in the show’s team calculations?
No way, he had to quickly contact the show’s team to clear things up!
