Chapter 7

Xia Zui couldn't help but cough, then typed, "Oops, Ruanruan, I have to go now! I'll come visit you again next time."

[Oops~ Ruanruan~ I'm heading out now~]
[Oops~ Ruanruan~ I'm heading out now~]
[...]
Xia Zui: ...

Ruanruan chuckled, "Thank you, Cola-wifey, for the Cat Planet gift! Mwah!"

"Xiaxia-jie, go ahead and take care of what you need to do~ Oh, and by the way! Cola-wifey is also a streamer~ She's amazing at gaming. If you all like her, please go give her a follow~~"

[Got it!]
[Heading over to watch right now!]
[Pfft! I'm going to follow her right now!]
[Cola-wifey~]

Xia Zui exited Ruanruan's livestream and entered Cola's, where she was greeted by a wave of welcome messages in the chat.

Cola smiled and said, "Welcome, Xiaxia-wifey! Did you have fun playing just now?"

Xia Zui: ...
[Xiaxiaxia: I'm not! I didn't!]

Cola suppressed a laugh, "I'm just teasing you!"

"I just saw the fans in the chat saying there was a fight over on your side. That monkey didn't look like a good guy at all—you did great, Xiaxia-wifey!"

[Wow! Cola-wifey's voice is so beautiful! I'm a fan now!]
[As of today, I have two wives!]
[How bold! This is Rich Lady Xiaxia's wife!]
[Ruanruan and Cola are both so sweet. Ruanruan asked fans to follow Cola, and Cola was planning to help fight that monkey. So wholesome.]
[Xiaxia-jie really has a great eye for people. I'm following whoever Xiaxia-jie follows from now on.]
[Xiaxiaxia gifted the streamer a Mermaid~]

Xia Zui could tell Cola was just kidding around, so she smiled and began sending gifts to Cola.

Seeing one mermaid after another, Cola didn't rush to start a game. "Thank you for the mermaids, Xiaxia-wifey~"

"Xiaxia-wifey, stop! You've sent so many already, keep that money for your meals."

Xia Zui paused, then started typing.
[Xiaxiaxia: Don't worry, that didn't even put a dent in my allowance.]

[Xiaxia-jie is so cool!]
[Xiaxia-jie is mighty!]
[So many mermaids, I can't even see the chat anymore.]
[Already followed!]

Watching Xiaxiaxia continue to shower her with mermaids, Cola couldn't help but speak up, "But Xiaxia-jie, you should keep some of your allowance for yourself. I just want you to have fun."

While sending mermaids, Xia Zui replied in her mind: I’m already having fun by sending these gifts. After all, there’s a cashback! Spending ten million results in a hundred-thousand-yuan rebate! It’s so much! I can never spend it all! I'll just casually gift Cola a million today and save the rest for tomorrow. To be honest, I'm a bit tired from all this clicking. Why can't the Cat Paw platform just add a feature to send a hundred mermaids at once?

Meanwhile, the staff at the Cat Paw platform were watching Cola's livestream in awe.

"What is this Xiaxiaxia's background? She was just gifting people, and then she turned around and got that monkey sent to jail."

"I checked, but I can't find anything. Her name and background seem to be completely blocked."

"A friend of the boss?" a staff member wondered aloud.

After all, only a friend of the Cat Paw platform's owner would be able to hide their identity so thoroughly.

"Possibly!"
"And what about that monkey's channel..."
"Ban him for a hundred years and sue him for breach of contract," the manager said with a wave of his hand.

The staff member nodded quickly, "I'll go handle it now."

After everyone left, the manager rubbed his balding head, feeling irritable. "This damn monkey, it would have been one thing if he just ruined himself, but he brought negative publicity to Cat Paw. Ugh, what a headache."

At the same time, in a villa, Monkey was being hauled away by the police, still shouting, "How is this possible!"

"We never took those photos! It's impossible! Impossible!"

He had seen himself on the trending topics, accompanied by pixelated photos. Even so, he knew at a glance that it was definitely him. But how could it be? Every time he invited his top-tier donors over to play, he was extremely careful to ensure no evidence was left behind.

A police officer glanced at him; such scum was not worth pitying. However, they had also tried to trace who posted the photos, but found absolutely nothing. That person must have been a highly skilled hacker. They would continue the investigation, but for now, this scumbag would receive the punishment he deserved.

Elsewhere, Jiang Yue was also being taken away by the police. His mind was racing—the photos must have been leaked by Monkey. What was he doing keeping those photos? Was he trying to blackmail him? Facing this situation, Jiang Yue wished he could tear Monkey to shreds and feed him to the dogs. However, he was now in handcuffs himself, and the two of them would likely only meet again in prison.

Back in her rental apartment, Xia Zui listened as the Rich God System and Eleven excitedly described Monkey and Jiang Yue being led away. She couldn't help but ask, "How did you manage to find the evidence and put it online?"

One was a Rich God System, the other was Eleven—did they really have such capabilities?

The Rich God System scratched its head, "Xiaxia, you didn't think I only knew how to distribute money, did you?"

"Of course, whenever previous hosts encountered villains, I would step in!"

Eleven nodded, "That's right, that's right! We can handle small matters like this easily!"

Xia Zui's mouth hung open, "Ah..."

They could do things like this, and yet Eleven had claimed it was useless! This was incredibly useful! Hearing Xia Zui's praise, Eleven blushed, "Oh, Xiaxia, you're making me shy."

"I... my previous hosts all said I was useless..."

Xia Zui hissed, "May I ask what those predecessors were like?"

Eleven counted on its fingers, "The first host was a cultivator. After seeing me, they said, 'What kind of junk is this?' and threw me back."

"The second host was in an infinite flow world. They excitedly asked what I was good for..."

"I said I didn't think I was good for anything, and then they died!"

"The third host transmigrated to the age of savages. After seeing me, they said they wanted to go home. I... I couldn't help them go back, so they told me to get lost."

"It seems there were no other hosts. Since then, I've just been staying in the system space."

Xia Zui took a deep breath, "It's just that it wasn't meant to be, I suppose."

"It's okay! In my eyes, you are super useful! You're the best in the world!" Those previous hosts just weren't a match for Eleven. Like her! She and Eleven were a perfect match! Xia Zui's previous state probably couldn't have been any worse, anyway.

Eleven waved its hands quickly, "Xiaxia, don't think like that. I think you're super great!"

"You chat with us, recommend good cartoons, and... you praise me. We love you so much."

The Rich God System nodded in agreement, "The cartoons you recommended were so good, I love you!"

"When you are reincarnated in your next life, I will definitely be your system!"

Xia Zui teared up, "Woooo!"

There was such a wonderful thing—the Xia Zui of the next life must remember to thank her.

"Thank you for the mermaids, Xiaxia-wifey! Xiaxia-wifey! That's a hundred! You don't need to send any more!" Cola shouted in the livestream.

Xia Zui stopped what she was doing. Just then, a crowd of new people arrived in the chat.

Cola quickly said, "Welcome to the new cuties in the livestream. If you like the streamer, feel free to give me a follow~"

After saying that, she smiled again, "Xiaxia-wifey, do you want to play a game?"

[Xiaxiaxia: I don't think so, I'm hungry.]
[How many did Xiaxia-jie gift today?]
[Three hundred mermaids.]
[My god, three million in one day? Is this the world of the wealthy?]
[So envious.]
[Xiaxia-jie, do you need a dog? I can meow.]
[Xiaxia-jie is hungry! Hurry up and cook me so I can be served!]
[Command received! Washing up.]
[Plucking feathers.]
[Putting into the pot.]
[Lighting the fire.]
[Adding water.]
[...]

"Then Xiaxia-wifey, go get something to eat!" Cola said. "Thanks for your hard work today, Xiaxia-wifey! Let me rub your tired fingers."

Xia Zui smiled and exited the livestream.

Walking down the familiar snack street, Xia Zui held a bucket of barbecue, eating as she walked. In her mind, the two systems were chattering away. The Rich God System suddenly asked, "Xiaxia, why don't you add the streamer's contact information?"

Xia Zui tilted her head and took a bite of the barbecue, "Can't you read my inner thoughts?"

"I just don't feel like chatting."

Eleven spoke up, "That's not it! It's because Haohao had many hosts before. Everyone gifted for the sake of the cashback, but some felt that gifting money to a streamer was a loss, so they wanted to gain benefits offline to fill their own gaps."

"Haohao wants to ask, don't you feel like you're losing out?"

Xia Zui chewed on the barbecue, "Why would I think that?"

"This money wasn't mine to begin with. Since it's stipulated that it can only be used on online platforms, it's destined to be spent on others. Besides, I get a rebate, so why would I feel like I'm losing?"

"As for finding streamers offline, as you mentioned..."

Xia Zui shook her head, "Streaming is their job. I only tip them because I like their professional demeanor. There's no need to seek them out after work."

"Furthermore, I don't like chatting, nor do I want to get anything from them."

"For me, their joy and gratitude are a form of feedback. The adulation I receive online isn't fake, either. I gift the streamers I like, they get happy, and since it wasn't my money in the first place, I'm happy too."

"Everything is fine; there's no need to make it complicated. Besides, the Rich God System only lasts for a month. Eventually, I'll have to leave this online life."

"And besides, I think it's already great as it is—it's exceeded all my expectations!"

Eleven and the Rich God System were silent for a moment before the Rich God System spoke up, "Xiaxia, you're truly wonderful."

"That's right!" Eleven shouted, "Xiaxia is the best!"

Xia Zui, who was busy chatting with the systems, didn't know that the battle between her and Jiang Yue had been recorded and posted online.

[Watching a rich lady fight a boss; is this the world of the wealthy?]
