Xiao Yu's words left the Livestream Viewers marveling.
"Not gonna lie, those standards aren't just high. They're downright ridiculous!!"
"Tall, rich, handsome, and faithful—I can understand that, even if those qualities don't exactly go together. But adding 'no touching' on top? Damn, is she looking for a deity to worship at home? If this girl weren't Mo Mo, I'd be fucking roasting her!"
"Exactly! Getting angry over someone touching her hand? Most normal men couldn't stand that. Maybe for a little while, but a lifetime? Even if you're Mo Mo, even if you're as beautiful as an angel, a lifetime of that is a no!"
"I get it now. She doesn't want a boyfriend. She wants an obedient manservant!"
Some people started criticizing her, while others sighed.
Even her top donor, "Young Master Lin," suddenly fell silent.
Xia Mo said, "Stop scolding me, everyone! I'm not doing it on purpose! But what am I supposed to do? Master Xiao, you've described exactly how I feel, but old habits die hard. Even if I want to change, I probably can't!"
Xiao Yu said, "You might feel this way because you're not actually in any hurry to date. Too many guys are pursuing you. Or maybe you only think you want a relationship... You might not have noticed this yourself, but although you think you loved your ex deeply, you weren't even all that heartbroken. You should stay single for a few years. Once you truly long for love, you'll naturally change."
Xiao Yu wasn't a relationship expert, but he could see through to people's true feelings, even those they weren't aware of themselves.
Xia Mo's love life wouldn't go smoothly, so staying single for now was her best choice.
The Livestream Viewers flooded the chat with comments.
"So that's the truth! Too many guys have been chasing Mo Mo too eagerly, and it's made her picky. Plus, she's beautiful, rich, a major streamer, sweet, and innocent, so nobody thinks her standards are too high or sees anything wrong with how hard she is to win over!"
"Holy shit, he nailed it in one sentence!"
"Mo Mo, stay single! That's what everyone wants anyway! It lets us keep dreaming!"
"Young Master Lin's gone quiet. I bet his heart's turned cold!"
"Young Master Lin says: Fuck this, refund me! I spent so much boosting your ranking!"
"LMAO, the refund comment is killing me!"
Xia Mo's cheek twitched.
"Thank you, Master Xiao. I think I know what to do from now on!"
"Next up is today's prize draw."
"Finally, the draw's starting! I have to seize this chance today, no matter what. Once the two big streamers start collaborating tomorrow, there'll be even more fans and fiercer competition!"
"My bank card's itching for action! I'm going all out today! Nobody try to stop me. I absolutely need my fortune told!!"
"Me too!! I've got something I absolutely need a reading for!!"
"Brothers, draw your swords!"
The prize draw began.
Then something happened that nobody had anticipated.
Young Master Lin sent 666 × 999
Young Master Lin sent 666 × 999
Young Master Lin sent 666 × 999
"Finally won. Thirty thousand yuan-my luck was a little better than I expected."
"Holy shit!"
"He opened with thirty thousand yuan's worth of draws! I'm blinded. That's Mo Mo's top donor for you!!"
"Everyone else is trying their luck ten draws at a time, and this big shot went straight for tens of thousands!"
With the first slot claimed, the others began spending more on gifts for the draw.
Dozens of wealthy viewers were sending 999 yuan at a time.
Soon, all three slots had been claimed.
Young Master Lin had spent thirty thousand, yet his slot was actually the cheapest. The second winner had spent over thirty thousand, and the third had spent forty thousand!
"Good lord. Just... good lord. I did a rough calculation, and those dozens of rich viewers alone sent over 1.5 million yuan in one-yuan gifts!"
Xiao Yu was a little surprised too. He'd expected fierce competition today, but over two million yuan in one-yuan gifts was still staggering!
Every fan on Xia Mo's donor leaderboard had serious spending power!
Young Master Lin said, "You only need to win once, and then you can keep getting readings afterward. Thirty or forty thousand isn't really much. Those top three on the leaderboard send a hundred Super Rockets at a time. Compared to them, I'm embarrassed to even say I'm not short on cash."
"That's true!"
"Man, I feel like it'll be even harder to win tomorrow!"
"Why are there so many rich people in this world?!"
"Fuck, what kind of luck is this? I spent thirty thousand and still didn't win!"
"I spent over twenty thousand too."
"Master Xiao, this makes no sense! I spent twenty thousand too. What are us unlucky players supposed to do?!"
"You unlucky rich guys will win sooner or later. What are ordinary salaried workers like us supposed to do? I just gritted my teeth and spent five thousand-half a month's pay-and it didn't even make a ripple!"
"I want to cry. I spent ten thousand and got jack shit too!"
There were only three slots for 150,000 people. On top of that, the platform's draw algorithm lowered the odds the more money someone spent.
Some were frustrated, while others felt lucky.
"Thank goodness I won earlier."
"Thank goodness Master Xiao is merciful. He lets one person from the first diehard fan group win a free internal draw every day. I bow before him!"
"I'm so jealous. I want to join too. Boohoo."
"Once, an opportunity lay before me, but I didn't treasure it. That day, I left the stream cursing. Now, I'm filled with regret!"
In the stream of a female streamer ranked among the platform's top ten.
Fan A said, "Holy crap, let me tell you something unbelievable! I was just watching a fortune-teller's stream on my alt. He held a draw for reading slots, one yuan per entry. There were 150,000 viewers, and they sent several million yuan in one-yuan gifts!! And the boss said he gets to keep 100% today!"
Fan B said, "Wow, seriously? No platform cut? That's several million in pure income! Our streamer's one of the platform's top ten, but she doesn't even get several million in gifts a month, does she?"
The female streamer stopped dancing and singing. Her eyes practically turned red with envy, and she pursed her lips before saying mournfully, "A month? You think way too highly of me. After the platform's cut and personal income tax, my gifts for a whole year... No, my total annual income doesn't even match what he made from one draw!"
Fan C said, "Millions a day, just like that actress Zheng Shuang! I openly admit I'm jealous!"
Behind the scenes at the streaming company in Yanjing.
Employee A said, "Manager, the figures are in. This is insane! That last prize draw brought in 2.2 million!! It broke the all-time record!"
Employee B said, "It did more than break the record! The previous record was two million in total gifts during a single day's stream. That streamer stayed live for twenty-four hours without sleeping or resting, promoted it heavily in advance to climb the rankings, and even sent gifts to themselves through an alt! But this Master Xiao made 2.2 million from a single draw! He didn't send himself any gifts at all!"
The manager said, "I doubt anyone will beat this record in the next few years... No, correction. Nobody except Master Xiao himself will be able to beat it!"
Employee A said, "Haha, exactly! I'm starting to wonder whether Master Xiao is an immortal reincarnated, or someone who traveled back from thousands of years in the future. His fortune-telling, talismans, and jade-doesn't he remind you of a Daoist priest from a novel?"
Employee B said, "He does. He fucking does! Though I feel like he's even more badass than the ones in novels!"
Employee C said, "He made a whopping 2.2 million from one draw. I'm so envious my drool's coming out of my eyes!"
The manager said, "He made almost as much from one draw as all the streamers on our entire platform combined!"
