Chapter 42: The Top Donor 'Accidentally' Enters the Live Stream (Patreon)

Guinaifen got the reward she wanted. Her older brother was transferred from being an ordinary miner to the mine's security team, and even became a mid-level manager. Not only did he completely escape the exhausting frontline work, but his salary also more than tripled.

When her older brother shared his joy with their family, everyone laughed happily. Only Guinaifen's smile was tinged with bitterness...

Guinaifen was still quite happy to be able to improve her family's life, and having crossed her own boundaries, she was especially proactive that night, exploring many different kinds of knowledge with you.

With many things, the only difference is between doing it once and doing it countless times.

Perhaps because of the public display, having once again crossed her boundaries, Guinaifen became even more uninhibited.

Now, she is basically at your beck and call. The trails of your battles have spread across the entire Xianzhou.

Guinaifen became increasingly careless about her livestreaming. After all, as your woman, she could get several million Credits a month. If you were in a good mood, you would even buy her a Starskiff and a small courtyard. As for livestreaming, she worked herself to death, trying every trick in the book, and might not even earn 1 million Credits in a year.

Why work so hard for no money? One can only say that the barrier to entry for the livestreaming industry is too low, leading to intense internal competition.

Even for someone who was once the princess of a planet and the counterpart to a legendary heroine, she ultimately succumbed to money, which is truly lamentable.

It just goes to prove the old saying: it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

One day, Guinaifen skipped her scheduled outdoor livestream performance as usual to discuss academic knowledge with you.

As a result, some of her old fans were unhappy and launched a collective protest in her fan group chat.

Although she had been corrupted by money, Guinaifen wasn't a bad person at heart. Faced with the collective protest from her fans, she immediately felt extremely guilty. Without much thought, she changed her clothes and started the stream.

The careless Guinaifen had evidently forgotten that she was currently in your private mansion.

So, just as Guinaifen was enthusiastically singing and dancing, you appeared brazenly in the frame wearing only a bathrobe.

Upon seeing you, Guinaifen didn't immediately realize the severity of the situation.

When you saw Guinaifen streaming, you were only a little surprised, thinking she wanted to try something different today, like a public exhibition or something.

So you walked over nonchalantly, wrapped your arm around Guinaifen's slender waist, and, as if declaring your sovereignty in front of the camera, kissed her in front of all her fans.

Guinaifen didn't resist, her cheeks just flushed red as she gave you a gentle push and said, "I'm still streaming~"

Your unabashed intimacy in front of the fans immediately sent the livestream chat into an uproar.

Some discussed Guinaifen being kept by her boss, some cursed her for being a shameless kept woman, some speculated about your identity, and many more were just there for the drama.

Seeing the explosion of comments in the chat, Guinaifen finally realized how serious things were and quickly ended the stream.

Just as she was at a loss for what to do, you pulled her into an embrace. "What's the rush? Worst comes to worst, I'll take care of you~"

Your assurance immediately calmed Guinaifen down.

But you didn't expect things to develop so quickly and intensely.

It's unknown who edited a clip of that segment and added exaggerated titles like "Top Donator Enters the Stream," "Number Two Donator Cries Himself to Sleep," "Number Two Donator Flees Overnight with His Rockets"...

Soon, the video of you and Guinaifen went viral online.

And it wasn't long before someone doxxed you and exposed your true identity.

Not only did you not care, you were even a little pleased with yourself, feeling that you had made a big splash this time.

Why do some rich kids like to flaunt their wealth online?

From a psychological perspective, this behavior stems from a severe lack of validation.

A significant portion of these rich kids have strict upbringings, with parents who favor a critical style of education. Such children strongly crave their parents' approval.

When they grow up, since they can't get validation from their parents, they try to get it from others, and the internet is one of the most convenient ways to do so.

The rich kid start that Victor simulated this time was a similar case.

Your only concern was that if Tingyun found out, she would use this as an excuse to break off the engagement with you.

To be honest, you couldn't care less about Tingyun. You've seen plenty of beautiful women; a mere Foxian girl who knows how to make money is no big deal.

However, you couldn't tolerate her being the one to break off the engagement. It was a matter of face, and the family's face was more important than anything.

But Guinaifen couldn't afford to be so careless, because her older brothers and sisters soon found out about the incident.

Her two older brothers in particular had received knightly training since childhood and were also Pathstriders, possessing considerable combat strength.

After interrogating Guinaifen to no avail, the two secretly plotted to teach you a harsh lesson.

A few days passed, and you noticed there was no reaction from Tingyun's side. You didn't know if she intended to swallow her anger or if she had other plans.

As for the sweet dream that Tingyun hadn't heard the news, that was something you absolutely didn't dare to imagine.

Everyone knows that in business, being well-informed is fundamental.

Seeing no movement from Tingyun, you grew restless and secretly contacted Guinaifen, arranging to meet her at the usual place.

By now, Guinaifen's streaming career had suffered a heavy blow; she had been cyberbullied to the point of nearly quitting the internet. Her entire family depended on you for their livelihood, so no matter how unwilling she was, she didn't dare disobey your orders.

So, Guinaifen quietly left her house.

But she didn't notice two figures tailing her from behind—it was her eldest and second-eldest brothers.

Just as Guinaifen unlocked the mansion's gate with her key, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

Guinaifen subconsciously turned her head to look, and the two familiar figures appearing so abruptly made her turn pale with shock.

"Big brother! Second brother! Why are you here!?"

Before she could react, her brothers, with cold expressions, pulled her aside, pushed the gate open, and forced their way into the mansion.

"Big brother! Second brother! Wait! Don't go in!" Guinaifen, pulled away from the entrance, cried out in alarm.

But the two completely ignored Guinaifen's calls from behind, striding forward and barging into the residence.

You soon discovered the two intruders.

Your expression turned cold, and you snapped directly, "For her sake, the two of you can get out now, and I won't hold this against you."

"Go to hell! Bastard!"

Seeing the culprit who had ruined and coerced their beloved sister, the two brothers could no longer hold back and lunged at you with a roar.
