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

Chen Xixi is endlessly blessed, whereas Zheng He is forever suffering, hahaha! It took so much effort for him to get some money, and in the end, he still has to live under a bridge, only to have his money swindled by a con artist. He finally found a place to stay, and before he even got to move in, he was kicked out! Looking at the current situation, it seems like Zheng He will have to spend another night under the bridge.
Zheng He looked at the security guard blocking him with fiery anger in his eyes, his face clouded with gloomy emotions: “I’ve already said I’m with Chen Xixi, why are you stopping us and not letting us in?!”
Security: “I’m sorry, sir, but as per our hotel policy, you cannot just walk into a guest room looking for someone without the guest’s permission.”
Zheng He wasn’t really there to find Chen Xixi; he just wanted to use Chen Xixi’s name to stay for free.
Moreover, if Chen Xixi knew they had come, with her stingy nature, she would definitely not allow them in.
Zheng He frowned, “Then call your manager and tell him that we are the guests from ‘Money Saving Battle.'”
According to Zheng He’s understanding of Chen Xixi’s poor appearance, it was impossible for the owner to be within Chen Xixi’s network.
It must be that the owner knew they were filming and saw that they had no place to stay, so he kindly offered to help as a charity.
Rich people, after all, perform acts of charity to enhance their own reputation and image once they have a certain amount of money.
Since they could shelter Chen Xixi and Jin Cheng, they would surely be kind enough to accommodate them to the end.
Unable to get rid of Zheng He and his group, the security guard sought out Manager Zhang to report the situation. Manager Zhang came over directly and said in a businesslike tone: “Our owner said that only Chen Xixi was invited. If you wish to stay with her, you must have Chen Xixi’s consent.”
Zheng He, Han Qianyi, and Wan Chen were stunned: “???”
Consent from Chen Xixi is required?
Has this hotel become Chen Xixi’s property?
Zheng He couldn’t accept it and shouted, “Why do we need consent from Chen Xixi?”
Manager Zhang: “This is what our owner said.”
Han Qianyi looked at Zheng He, then at Wan Chen, and said in a low voice, “So what do we do now?”
Chen Xixi gets to stay in a five-star hotel for free, how could they willingly look for another place to spend money, but without spending, it seems that under the bridge is the only choice…
Suddenly Wan Chen turned to Zheng He and said, “Why don’t you swallow your pride and talk to Chen Xixi?”
Wan Chen kind of wanted to stay in a five-star hotel, but with just over two thousand in his pocket, if he were to use it for a five-star hotel, he probably couldn’t afford more than three nights.
Moreover, if there’s a better place to stay, who would want to stay somewhere inferior.
Han Qianyi also really wanted to stay in a five-star hotel; after all, she had never stayed in such a luxury hotel her whole life, and she was filled with longing.
So she also looked at Zheng He and spoke softly, “Talk to Chen Xixi, I think she is so kind-hearted, she will definitely agree to let us stay, she wouldn’t have the heart to see us sleep on the streets.”
Han Qianyi deliberately emphasized Chen Xixi’s kindness and reluctance to let them sleep on the streets.
If Chen Xixi rejected them, she believed that online viewers would definitely think of Chen Xixi as too cold-hearted and ruthless, and Chen Xixi’s popularity would plummet, naturally boosting her own popularity!
Zheng He didn’t have much money in his pocket, and if he had to find a place to stay tonight, he’d have to start live-streaming and beg for money first.
But why would he spend money when there was a free place to stay?
And especially a five-star hotel at that.
But to bow down to Chen Xixi… he didn’t want to.
If it were anyone else, he might have hesitated.
Chen Xixi… Heh! He had declared an unyielding feud against Chen Xixi! He would rather die than give in!
Zheng He raised his hand, pointed down the street with a rather imposing manner, and said with steely determination: “I, Zheng He! Even if it means sleeping on the streets today! Lying in a pile of trash! I can’t possibly bow down to Chen Xixi! Not a bit!”
Wan Chen, who just wanted a decent place to stay, nodded speechlessly: “Fine, you’ve got spirit. I respect that.”
Five minutes later.
Zheng He held his phone to his ear, grinning from ear to ear, and spoke in an incredibly flattering tone: “Xixi, are you asleep?”
On the other end of the phone, Chen Xixi, who was just about to fall asleep on her luxurious bed, felt her hair stand on end.
She glanced at the phone number which was unfamiliar, but the man’s voice was somewhat recognizable because it sounded mildly sleazy—it made her want to smack him.
She shook off the goosebumps on her skin and tentatively asked, “You…are Zheng He?”
“Aiyo, you recognized my voice haha, yes, it’s me! Did I interrupt your rest?”
Chen Xixi was dumbfounded. She checked the phone again to make sure she wasn’t asleep, dreaming, or hallucinating.
Had Zheng He gone mad?
Otherwise, why would he speak to her like this?
Chen Xixi asked bluntly, “Are you being threatened by someone? Or did the whole ‘Chosen One’ thing get to you?”
Zheng He chuckled haughtily, speaking quite amicably: “Nope, it’s just that we heard you’re staying at Taihua Hotel now, and we were thinking of moving in too. Could you see if you could let us stay with you?”
Five minutes before, right after refusing to bow down to Chen Xixi, Zheng He started live streaming to ask for money.
He figured once he got the money, he could stay wherever he wanted, but there was no way he would suck up to Chen Xixi!
As it turned out… he opened his live stream and played pitiful for five minutes, asked for money for another five, but the people sending gifts were few and far between.
People might have sympathized with him the first time he begged during a stream, but the second and third times? Netizens naturally weren’t going to open their wallets to satisfy such a greedy person.
Moreover, it would be a waste to give money as it would eventually just end up with scammers.
Zheng He, having not obtained much money, was forced to face reality.
If he didn’t bow down to Chen Xixi, he’d have to sleep under a bridge as a mosquito feast again tonight.
Chen Xixi chuckled, as though she’d heard some hilarious joke, then said nonchalantly, “Wasn’t it you guys who drove me out?”
Just moments ago while browsing on her phone, she came across the hot spring B&B cancellations, and from the comments on the cancellation, she learned the reason why she was driven out by the B&B owner.
“It wasn’t me who drove you out, I was just joking around, and I didn’t expect the owner would actually agree. Plus, he’s like a nutcase, he even threw us out too. I think he probably wanted to get rid of you a long time ago; it’s not my fault. He just didn’t want to let us stay for free!” Zheng He immediately tossed the blame onto that idiotic owner.
Chen Xixi drew out her ‘Oh’ melodically.
“And now, we’re in a situation where we have nowhere to stay. We heard you’re at Taihua Hotel and that you were personally invited over by the owner himself. Since you’re so capable, why not help us get set up there too? Otherwise, we’ll end up sleeping on the streets. We’re all guests from the same program; surely you can’t bear to see us wander the streets, right?” As Zheng He spoke, he thickened his skin and started playing the sympathy card.
He’d never begged Chen Xixi so humbly before.
He’d already humbled himself this much, if Chen Xixi still refused to lend him a hand, that would be way too harsh, wow!
[Wow! Has ‘Money Saving Battle’ reached a century’s grand reconciliation?]
[LMAO! How come Zheng He’s face-slapping always comes so fast haha!]
Chen Xixi sneered, “I’m someone who can coldly watch others go hungry and even take advantage of their misfortune, so I have no morals, don’t moral bind me.”
