Beating a Dog When It's Down

However—

Lang Yunping: "As expected of a bunch of losers. Just 20 rockets and you're this happy? After taxes, it's only ten thousand at most. What good is that?"

Lang Yunping: "If you've got the guts, keep sending them. Let's see how much you can spend. What a bunch of losers."

However, the next second, a line of text appeared in the public chat.

"Since you want to see it, I'll satisfy you."

A barrage of five hundred Super Rockets instantly set the entire public chat ablaze.

"Holy shit, which big shot was that? They sent 500 Super Rockets in one go! That's a full five hundred thousand! Awesome!"

"Lang Shen, didn't you say we were losers? See that? There's a Super Tycoon among us too! Hahaha..."

"Exactly! Aren't you so damn amazing? You said we weren't allowed to send gifts. Well, what now? Got your face slapped, huh?"

Lang Yunping had not expected his words to be thrown back in his face so quickly. Being publicly humiliated in front of so many people felt absolutely awful.

After a brief daze, he posted another barrage message.

Lang Yunping: "500 Super Rockets are only worth five hundred thousand at most. That's still not enough to call yourself a Super Tycoon."

Lang Yunping: "If you want to flaunt your wealth in front of me, I'm afraid you're not qualified yet."

Although Lang Yunping's words were rather punchable, they did make sense.

Five hundred thousand was indeed an enormous sum to ordinary people, but to a Super Tycoon like Lang Yunping, it was merely pocket change.

The viewers had been angry at first, and seeing someone send gifts in rapid succession had made them so excited that they got carried away.

But now that they had calmed down and thought about it, what they had said earlier really had been somewhat childish.

Come on, this guy had once spent eight million in a rage on Douyu. Trying to slap his face with a mere five hundred thousand was simply wishful thinking.

"Is that so?"

Looking at the barrage messages on the public chat through his phone, Lin Chen sneered.

He had sent those 500 rockets using Douyu recharge vouchers.

Originally, he had planned to send 5,000 Super Rockets at once, but his Xiaomi phone had lagged halfway through, so only 500 had gone through.

There were still Douyu coins worth 29.5 million sitting in his account.

"Since you're begging me to slap your face, I suppose I'll have to grant your wish."

Watching the public chat barrage, Lin Chen secretly chuckled. Then he quietly tapped the Super Rocket gift button and entered the number 10000 below it.

Boom—

The next second, a dazzling line of text appeared in the public chat.

An Ordinary Commoner: Sent 10,000 Super Rockets in a streak.

This time, the entire public chat exploded. Everyone who saw that string of numbers went wild.

"Holy fucking shit, what did I just see? 10,000 Super Rockets? This is a real Super Tycoon!"

"At 1,000 per Super Rocket, 10,000 Super Rockets means ten million! This is way too damn rich!"

"Boss, do you need a pendant hanging from your leg hair? Please take me with you."

"Yeah, boss, take me with you too. I'm cheap."

Countless viewers used barrage messages to express the shock in their hearts.

Super Rockets were different from other gifts. Besides being Douyu's most expensive gift, they had a special feature: they were displayed across the entire platform.

Although Lin Chen had sent 500 Super Rockets at once earlier, it was not without precedent in Douyu's history.

But 10,000 Super Rockets at once set a precedent not only for Douyu, but for the entire livestreaming world.

Thus, when this gift appeared in the public chat, both streamers and viewers clicked in.

They wanted to see what kind of big shot could be so extravagantly wealthy.

As these people flooded in, Qin Xueqing's livestream popularity reached a terrifying level.

Her viewer count rose from a mere fifty thousand to a full five million, while her popularity score soared into the billions, directly breaking multiple Douyu records.

Besides the stunned viewers, the two property management staff standing beside Lin Chen were also shocked.

The 20 Super Rockets earlier had been sent by the two of them separately. Though they could not change much, it was still their contribution.

As for the major spending, it all depended on Lin Chen to carry it.

The two had already mentally prepared themselves for Lin Chen to make a grand move soon.

But even so, they had never guessed that his move would be this outrageous.

10,000 Super Rockets—that was a full ten million.

Even the two of them, high-end property management staff who had seen plenty of the world, could not help but feel shaken.

So this is the kind of Super Tycoon who lives in a three-billion top-tier mansion? He casually sends ten million worth of gifts. Incredible. The two were utterly stunned.

Of course, those people were only outsiders. The person truly shaken was Qin Xueqing herself.

When she saw 10,000 Super Rockets appear in the public chat, she froze completely. Then tears began streaming down her face uncontrollably.

She turned to look at Lin Chen. Although she had not confirmed it yet, she vaguely felt that he had sent all those gifts.

It was a woman's intuition.

Some sharp-eyed viewers noticed that Lang Yunping had remained silent for a long time, and their confidence swelled even further.

"Lang Shen, weren't you so amazing? Didn't you say we were losers? Why aren't you talking now? I bet even you never expected a Super Tycoon like this to be among us."

"Hahaha... This feels so good! That damn Lang dog looked down on people, so let's beat him while he's down and see how he acts smug next time."

"Exactly! Lang Shen has become Lang Dog, so we'll beat a dog when it's down! Hahaha, this is awesome!"

"Beat a dog when it's down +1."

"Beat a dog when it's down +2."

How would Lang Yunping dare say anything now? He had long since disappeared somewhere.

Although he had a record of spending eight million, that had been accumulated bit by bit over several years. How could he compare to Lin Chen, who casually spent ten million in one burst whenever he felt like it?

"No wonder those rich guys casually send thousands or tens of thousands at a time. I never expected it to feel this good."

At that moment, Lin Chen looked at the barrage messages on his phone screen and secretly laughed.

He had always been busy working hard before and had no time, so he had never really come into contact with this sort of thing, much less sent gifts.

Now, thanks to the three free ten-million recharge vouchers he had, he finally had the chance to experience it properly.

He had to admit, this feeling was truly exhilarating. Lin Chen even felt as if he were about to become addicted to it.

Of course, that was only one reason it felt so satisfying. Another matter made him feel even better.

Just moments ago, a crisp notification sound had rung out in his mind.

"Ding-dong. Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing the mission 'Help Campus Belle Qin Xueqing resolve her troubles.' You have received one Silver Treasure Chest."

This must be what life's greatest pleasures feel like. I get to spend money for free and receive a treasure chest too. This is amazing.

Hearing the system notification, Lin Chen was practically blooming with joy. However, with the property management staff beside him, he forcibly suppressed his excitement.

What puzzled him, though, was that he had only received Bronze Treasure Chests before. This was the first time a Silver Treasure Chest had appeared, and he wondered what kind of treasure it would contain.
