"Oh right, he was the one who negotiated my joining the KG team, and the entire signing fee went into his pocket; he didn't give me a single penny," Zhuang Meng suddenly remembered.
He acted first and informed her later, talking to the manager of the KG team before telling her. When she refused, he told her many benefits of joining the team, and only then did she agree.
Thinking deeper, did he also want to treat her the way he treated Meng Zibing?
They're taking away her earnings little by little, treating her like a commodity that can generate profit?
When she's no longer of any use to him, he'll abandon her and find a new game streamer who can make money for him.
The more Zhuang Meng thought about it, the more she trembled.
"Master Jiang, thank you." Zhuang Meng came back to her senses and thanked Jiang Yuan in front of the screen.
She knew what to do.
After saying that, Zhuang Meng ended the live stream.
He got up and headed towards the bedroom.
They have been living together since the official announcement.
The guy initially suggested she move in with him, but she was used to livestreaming from her own home, so she asked him to move in with her.
All of the boy's belongings were with her, including his locked laptop that he always kept close at hand.
Wherever he goes, he takes that laptop with him. You could say he never leaves it behind except when he's showering or sleeping.
Recently, because he left early and returned late, and was in low spirits, he didn't bring his computer.
She had never thought of going through his computer or prying into his secrets before, because everyone has privacy.
But now, she doesn't think so.
What things make people unable to put their hands down?
That must be something very important to him.
Just like how people are inseparable from their mobile phones these days.
There must be a secret hidden in this notebook!
There might be evidence that could get him imprisoned, or perhaps the notebook contains evidence that he took Meng Zibing's money!
Zhuang Meng opened her laptop and tried a password, but it was incorrect.
I then tried other people's birthdays, but it was still wrong.
Finally, she entered the date of Meng Zibing's first day as a game streamer, and the screen immediately redirected to the computer interface.
This password struck Zhuang Meng as somewhat ironic.
They used Meng Zibing on one hand, and on the other hand, they commemorated her during her first live broadcast.
No, it might not be a commemoration, but rather a way to let oneself know that one started making money after Meng Zibing became a game streamer.
In the end, she was just being superficial.
He set this password not to commemorate Meng Zibing, but to commemorate the day he began a life completely different from his previous one.
The computer desktop is clean and tidy, with nothing else except a few commonly used software programs.
But the previous netizen's experience served as a warning to her: the cleaner and more perfect something is, the more problematic it is.
Immediately, Zhuang Meng opened the disk and then the folder, but still found nothing.
But she still wouldn't give up, and in the end...
I found a hidden folder on the disk that requires a password to view.
Zhuang Meng's expression was serious. She clicked on the link and entered the date of Meng Zibing's first live stream once again.
The folder was opened immediately.
Upon seeing the detailed transaction records and screenshots inside, Zhuang Meng's expression turned ugly. Her hand holding the mouse trembled, anger welled up inside her, and a hint of pity flashed across her eyes.
The person who felt pity wasn't the boy, but Meng Zibing.
Zhuang Meng's fingernails dug into her palms, her face pale, and she picked up her phone again to make a call.
"Hello, is this 110? I want to report a crime." Zhuang Meng's eyes were serious and filled with determination.
...
Inside the live stream room.
Jiang Yuan didn't say anything as she watched Zhuang Meng leave.
She thought Zhuang Meng should know what to do.
[It's terrifying to think about; how could anyone be so calculating!]
[Haha, it makes it seem like they're dating, that their relationship is more than just friendship. Then he throws out, "I never confessed to you, and we're not boyfriend and girlfriend. Why would I need to tell you if I'm in a relationship?" Absolutely awful.]
[Any ambiguous or uncertain relationship is either a sign of someone playing games or you're being used as a backup option. Sisters, please be discerning and don't be fooled!]
Yes, if you've been in a flirtatious relationship for a while and haven't been able to develop it further, then without a doubt you're the backup option.
I've had similar experiences, it's really infuriating!!
Master Jiang, what would happen if Mengmeng hadn't won the lottery and hadn't asked about her boyfriend?
I'm curious too.
“Then she will become the second Meng Zibing. The good thing is that she won’t commit suicide, but she will lose everything,” Jiang Yuan replied.
Zhuang Meng is mentally stronger; even if she loses everything, she will not choose to commit suicide.
But she will be schemed against and lose everything.
[Phew, thank goodness Mengmeng won the lottery, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.]
I've watched Mengmeng's live streams all along; her assets are definitely more than tens of millions. If she had nothing... I can't imagine how much money that guy could have run off with her.
So, the guy actually saw their talent for gaming from the beginning? That's why he patiently taught them?
“You could say that,” Jiang Yuan replied.
That guy's gaming skills were only slightly above average. Plus, he didn't have a good voice or a good-looking face, and his skills weren't great either. He barely got any viewers on his own streams.
So he set his sights on Zhuang Meng and Meng Zibing. After watching them play games, he found that they had excellent thinking skills and quick reflexes. Their operation skills were a bit rusty because they were new to the game, but with proper training, they could definitely be a valuable asset to him.
That's why I was patient with them.
If it were any other newbie, the guy might not have the patience.
My goodness, for a teenager to have such thoughts, how deep must his mind and cunning be!
Zhuang Meng was twelve or thirteen years old that year, and the other party was only two or three years older than her, meaning the other party was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time. To think so much at such a young age, she was more cunning than I am at thirty.
I'm thirty and I'm still asking my mom if I can eat the ice cream in the fridge.
Sisters, who isn't like that? If my brain were transported into a palace intrigue drama, I wouldn't even survive one episode!
[Sigh, me too. But I don't envy the other person's intelligence, because living like that is too tiring. It's all about scheming, every step is calculated. It's exhausting. Can't people just be honest?]
[They're dishonest, but they achieved financial freedom early on by living off women.]
[I was just saying I'd be a kept man, but how come some people actually do it? (crying)]
Another location, inside an apartment.
Wearing a rabbit mask, Jiang Yichen shifted his gaze from Jiang Yuan's live stream to the live stream webpage on the computer on the other side.
The other webpage was black, and everyone who entered had an English name, and even the words typed out were in English.
As Jiang Yuan's live stream progressed, the number of people entering another live stream room also surged.
Those who entered the black live stream room all sent gifts and tips to Jiang Yichen.
