Couldn't Take It

"Waaaaah! A million-dollar monthly salary requirement is truly extraordinary. I really don't deserve to earn that money!"

"Steel Wool Ball pad for Stainless Steel? Even the strongest sword and spear couldn't withstand that!"

"Making only a million a month doing this kind of work? You should be making at least a million a day, right?"

"Forget about a whole day, if someone can last eight hours without breaking down, I'll call him grandpa!"

"I don't believe it! Let me try!"

"Wow, wow! You're amazing! You can lift Steel Wool Ball with your bare hands. I admire you more than Superman. You're a real man!"

The Livestream Room instantly erupted in excitement.

Public opinion reversed, and everyone sided with the boy, looking down on the girl.

What a scheming bitch!

I was almost misled and almost wronged an innocent person!

Xu Yi watched the chaotic scene unfolding in the Livestream Room, and a slight twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Damn it, I was so busy watching the show that I forgot about the important matter!

We can't let that kid Huang Xingren get away.

"Brother, Huang Xingren has fled to evade punishment. Could you please take some men to arrest him?"

Xu Yi immediately sent a message to Han Tao, then turned around and grabbed one of the guys.

"Brother, you were the one shouting the loudest just now, saying you didn't want a single penny but were giving them 200,000. Now that the job requirements have been explained clearly, why are you running away?"

"What's it to you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"

The man stared at Xu Yi in shock.

[Negative emotions +1 +1 +1]

"Am I meddling in other people's business?"

Xu Yi was immediately annoyed upon hearing the system notification. It had kindly reminded him not to miss a job opportunity, and instead of being rewarded with negative emotions, it only gave him +1 +1 +1 – how stingy!

"This is a job that pays a million a month. You just said you'd be inhuman if you didn't do it. What, are you not human now?"

Everyone turned to look at them.

Damn it, I'm such a smart aleck.

The man was on the verge of tears, wishing he could tear his own mouth apart.

Is this a job he's capable of doing?

Does he have this talent?

When using Steel Wool Ball scrubber to clean Stainless Steel, others get sparks, but he gets blood!

What's the point of having any shame? Just admit defeat already.

"I was just bragging. I don't have that much money, nor do I have the physical ability. I'm actually a coward!"

The man said, then burst into tears.

"That old man is disabled but determined; he wants to try even while in a wheelchair. You should give him the chance!"

The man, trying to shift the blame, suddenly pushed the old man in the wheelchair over.

Although the old man didn't call out a price, his indomitable spirit despite his disability is admirable. Isn't that more sincere than simply asking for more money?

The old man looked bewildered and glared at the young man.

No, why did you push me here? Don't you have any morals?

He's already in a wheelchair, isn't that bad enough? Why make him scrub Steel Wool Ball?

"My... my milk is about to be delivered, and the doctor wants me to go in and sign some papers, but I can't go with them now!"

The old man racked his brains, came up with a random excuse, and quickly fled.

Using a wheelchair as a race car, it gave the feeling of accelerating from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour.

Everyone was shocked.

Sir, you're driving your wheelchair so fast, be careful not to speed.

After the farce, only the man was left alone in the cold wind.

"Brother, bad luck doesn't last forever; your luck will turn around eventually."

Xu Yi couldn't stand it and wanted to go over and persuade the boy.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the boy was heartbroken and burst into tears, then immediately slapped a Pyramid Scheme Flyer at Xu Yi.

"Seeking a son for a large sum of money?"

"Real estate Intermediary?"

"Introducing matchmakers?"

Xu Yi was stunned.

If he hadn't kindly come to mediate, why would this guy have tricked him?

Are they planning to take advantage of him?

"Dude, that's a bit inconsiderate of you."

Xu Yi was displeased.

The man sneered and pulled out Dagger.

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the money, or I'll stab you into a pretzel!"

Xu Yi remained silent, then turned around and reached for his hand, where he found Thai-style small whip.

"A knife can only turn a person into a swarm of bees, but to really beat them up, you'll need my Little Whip. Are you ready? The Little Airplane is about to take off!"

The men were all dumbfounded.

No, how did you pull those two big leather whips out from behind?

You don't look that tough, so why do you always carry a whip around?

The Livestream Viewers were laughing hysterically.

"Six hundred and sixty-six! I was just feeling sorry for him, thinking he'd been tricked by a woman. Turns out it's a classic case of a bitch and a dog, a match made in heaven!"

"Little spinning top, fly slower! Xu Yi, keep whipping! Don't stop!"

"Upstairs, you're spouting rhymes like that, are you preparing for graduate school entrance exams?"

After a brutal beating, the man collapsed on the ground, almost like a lump of mud, with two lines of tears streaming down his face.

"Are you feeling wronged?"

Xu Yi almost laughed in anger.

A robber has the nerve to cry?

"It's all gone, everything's gone!"

"I lost everything on my investments, I lost all my money when I was Green Turtle, and now even if I tried to rob someone with a knife, I couldn't get a single penny. I'm such a failure!"

The man wept, lamenting his fate, wondering how he could be such a failure.

The viewers in the live chat were speechless, criticizing Xu Yi for hitting too hard and driving the players to despair.

Of all people to bully, this guy had to try and pick on Xu Yi. Wasn't he just asking for trouble?

Moreover, upon closer reflection, it's clear that Xu Yi is inextricably linked to this kid's current predicament.

"Xu Yi, you have to take responsibility. They wouldn't have gone so far as to commit robbery. If you hadn't taken down Huang Xingren, they could at least have made some money as Green Tortoise."

The comments section was filled with sympathy for the man.

"No, what does this have to do with me? Why don't you guys think about me?"

Xu Yi felt wronged.

"You're already so rich, why should we worry about you?"

It would have been better if they hadn't mentioned it, but as soon as the conditions were brought up, the Livestream Viewers immediately started making a fuss.

When we first met, you were just Poor Bro; now you've invested over 100 million and are quite wealthy!

"Back then, your parents were gone, and you were all alone, eating cafeteria meals by yourself! Now look at you, surrounded by beautiful women, successful in your career, and most importantly, you have a little sister who loves abstract art and idolizes you!"

"Waaaaah, stop talking! If you keep going, I'll explode before he does!"

Seeing the complaints from his Livestream Viewers, Xu Yi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

It seems that life has indeed improved quite a bit, huh?

Ring ring!

The phone rang; it was Han Tao calling.

"Underling, I've already captured Huang Xingren, so you can rest assured."

"However, before the arrest, I noticed someone seemed to be trying to help him. Do you know Du Rufeng? Does he have some kind of grudge against you and not want Huang Xingren to be caught?"

Du Rufeng?

How does this kid know Huang Xingren?

Why would he want to see Huang Xingren? One works in the food industry, the other in the Entertainment Industry; they have absolutely nothing in common.

Surely they're not trying to screw themselves over?

Xu Yi was slightly taken aback, as if Du Rufeng's irritating face flashed before his eyes.

Damn it, this kid's only been behaving himself for a few days, and he's already causing trouble again?

"Brother, it's nothing, just a small problem. I can handle it myself."

Xu Yi shrugged, and just as he hung up the phone, his younger sister called again.

"Brother, an elder relative is coming to visit in a couple of days, and we're having a Family Banquet. Do you have time to attend?"

"What kind of Family Banquet is this, so grand?"

"He's not some big shot, you know him too, he's Du Rufeng's uncle."

Xu Yi listened to the phone call silently, completely stunned.

It really is Du Rufeng's uncle who's here?
