"Xu Yi, if you don't have any work, just say so. Hiring Actor to do lousy work? Do you think we're idiots?"

"Six hundred and sixty-six. You just made money yesterday, and you're already shirking your duties today. Xu Yi, you're not even going to put on an act anymore."

Seeing the burly man who was practically starving to death, the Livestream Viewers were speechless and criticized Xu Yi for forcing himself to do something he didn't have.

Although they are abstract, they don't take any bad job.

"Brothers, forgive me for not being abstract enough, but isn't this just a starving night shift worker? How did he become Actor that Xu Yi found?"

Some Livestream Viewers who didn't understand raised questions, suspecting that everyone had misunderstood Xu Yi.

"Livestream Viewers, you're too naive. You're so easily fooled?"

"Starve to death next to the cook? Die of thirst next to the pond? A fancy Hotel has everything, but you're just missing a Pinhaofan to starve to death?"

"Even if you mess up the job, don't treat us like idiots, Xu Yi. This time, I'm giving you Negative Review!"

"Xu Yi, I've always given you good reviews before, but today I'm giving you Negative Review no matter what."

Seeing the comments from his Livestream Viewers, Xu Yi was so angry he almost choked.

Is it easy for him to deliver food?

It's bad enough that I almost got scammed, but now that it's finally delivered, I'm being accused by Livestream Viewers of messing things up?

Why stay a streamer when there's no work to be done?

Facing a credibility crisis in his career, Xu Yi grabbed the man by the collar, about to question him, but the man spoke first.

"Big brother, I... I was wrong, I shouldn't have eaten for free!"

"Go ahead and hit me, but I'm so hungry! I really didn't mean to!"

The man burst into tears, terrified.

"What the hell... what did you say?"

"You don't have money for food? Then order some cheap takeout. Aren't you just wasting my money?"

Xu Yi was completely stunned.

Is it easy for him to deliver food so early in the morning? Getting ripped off once is bad enough, at least he had the comfort of the Yoga Pants goddess, but he got ripped off a second time?

"Master, I have my reasons."

"I lost everything in the stock market, and I'm completely broke. But don't worry, once I break even, I'll pay you back a hundredfold!"

"Trust me, I'm still a member of the Huang family, and I used to be worth several million."

The man looked alarmed; he certainly wasn't a habitual freeloader.

He was afraid Xu Yi wouldn't believe him, so he even took out his phone, opened a stock trading app, and showed it to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi's lips twitched as he read it.

Miserable!

That's so tragic!

The screen was filled with green; dozens of stocks were listed, all showing losses, not a single one in red.

The account, which once held millions, suffered devastating losses, leaving it with less than three digits.

"???"

Xu Yi asked a question mark.

"!!!"

The Livestream Viewers were shocked.

Green is healthy, green is good for well-being, and we should advocate for a green lifestyle. But if it appears on a stock trading app, that's a disaster!

If we were to say which color men least want to see...

Green is undoubtedly the top choice.

Green hat!

Green stocks!

"Holy shit!"

"What terrible sins did you commit in your past life to dare to gamble on the A-Shares in this life!"

"I was wrong. I admit this is not Actor; it's real!"

"I've been cautious my whole life, and I only had ten Yu’e Bao in my Yu'ebao account. This morning, I looked at it and the sky fell down—I'm missing out on a meal of multigrain pancakes!"

"I thought losing 20,000 was bad enough, but I didn't realize there were people who lost millions?"

"This guy is the real king of green! No wonder he can't afford to eat at fancy Hotel and has to order Pinhaofan and even mooch meals. He has his reasons!"

The Livestream Viewers had just suspected Xu Yi of messing things up immediately forgave Xu Yi.

Xu Yi, who had been cheated out of his money, immediately forgave the round-faced man.

They've already contributed real money to the A-Shares, so what's a Pinhaofan from him? It's a reward for him!

"Brother, don't be too upset. The stock market is full of ups and downs, that's normal. Take it easy!"

"I have a brother who has a great attitude. He also invested a million in the stock market, and he's very passionate about life. He's sunny and cheerful, and even when he lost it all, he just cursed a few times..."

Xu Yi patted the round-faced man's shoulder and began to comfort him.

They're still a member of the Huang family, after all. Even if I don't know them, they might be a distant relative of my younger sister.

Even though they're completely unrelated, they're still family!

"Brother, you have a really good attitude."

The round-faced man felt a little better and asked somewhat shyly:

"By the way, what's this expert doing now? I'd like to ask him for some advice."

"He's delivering takeout."

Xu Yi said casually, and a system notification sounded in his ear.

The round face froze.

[Negative emotions +10]

Um?

What's there to be negative about?

Was that a hurtful thing to say? Did it mean you look down on food delivery workers?

The round-faced man didn't speak, but his face was full of despair, clearly showing his thoughts.

Xu Yi glanced at the big, round, stiff face, then at his account balance, and looked disgusted.

"Bro, you're looking down on food delivery? You think there are no barriers to entry? You need at least three thousand yuan. With your current balance, you can't even do food delivery. You only have enough money to buy a rope."

Why buy rope?

"What for? Let's go play the Sunny Doll) under the over"

[Negative emotions +100]

The girl with the round face completely broke down. Pinhaofan but refused to eat, slapped herself repeatedly, and burst into tears.

"Xu Yi, can you stop insulting him? He's already had it bad enough!"

The Livestream Viewers couldn't stand it anymore and began to criticize Xu Yi.

Xu Yi remained silent.

Family members, does anyone know this?

He didn't complain about being given a Pinhaofan, but the person who freeloaded was the one who was considered pitiful?

"Stop crying. Isn't today Family Banquet for the Huang family? Why is no one here?"

Am I not human? Am I even human?

Why are you yelling so loudly? You're practically a teru Sunny Doll), are you even human?

"Waaaaah!"

When Big Round Face started crying again, Xu Yi got impatient and gave him the key to the electric scooter and his delivery uniform, finally saving Big Round Face from being Sunny Doll (a metaphor for someone who suffers misfortune) and also explaining why the Hotel was empty.

The entry requirements are too high!

"What did you say? We need to verify your identity first if we want to have dinner together?"

Xu Yi was dumbfounded.

She was used to having a round face.

"Of course, brother, don't you know anyone in high society? They talk about hundreds of millions all the time; they're not in our league at all. Of course we can't have dinner together."

"No, no matter how high his class is, he still eats grains and cereals. How noble can he be?"

Xu Yi complained.

The Livestream Viewers went wild with likes.

"We pay one yuan for a steamed bun, but they pay ten thousand yuan for one."

Do you still think we can eat together?

The man with the round face said lightly.

Critical hit!

Silence!

Silence fell over the Livestream Room.

One steamed bun costs 10,000 yuan?

Even gold isn't this expensive!

These guys really don't deserve to eat!

"Bro, I'm not qualified to eat here. If you're still not giving up, go try your luck on the fifth floor. I'm going to deliver some takeout."

The round-faced girl patted Xu Yi on the shoulder and went off to order takeout, beaming with delight.

Xu Yi looked at the empty Hall, then at the passageway leading to the fifth floor, and scratched his head.

The promising job of delivering takeout has already been given to Big Face; he can't back out now, so he can only head up to the fifth floor.

He refused to believe that he wasn't worthy of entering this door.
