It seemed like there was no sensation at all.
After waiting a little longer, she still didn’t feel any changes. The System was even less responsive than a chatbot—there was nowhere to ask questions.
No choice, she could only set the issue aside for now.
She had just earned 100 Points today, which could be used to buy things in the System Mall. Let’s see what that was all about.
Opening the System Mall.
Wow!
It was divided into a product section and a food section.
After a quick glance, the prices in the food section were a bit on the expensive side. Then she checked the product section.
Surprisingly, the prices were quite affordable!
What was this about?
The System was helping her win over her big brother!
This was good!
She hadn’t figured out how to thank Young Master Yang yet, and here came the solution!
One maintenance, two maintenance—might as well get it all done at once.
Let’s see what would be good to buy.
Health Maintenance Pill: 10 Points. Note: One bottle contains 10 pills. One pill lasts 3 hours, can be taken multiple times, no side effects.
Hmm…
Big brother would like this. Buy!
Beauty Enhancement Pill: 10 Points. Note: One bottle contains 10 pills. Beautifies, nourishes, and whitens skin. More pills enhance effects, no side effects.
Ye Sheng’s eyes lit up. She liked this one! Buy!
Body Strengthening Pill: 20 Points. Note: One bottle contains 10 pills. Strengthens the body and improves health. More pills lead to a healthier body, firm muscles, and eight-pack abs, no side effects.
How many pills counted as “more”?
There was no exact number, so she didn’t know how many to buy, how many were needed to see effects, or how many to achieve the best results.
It felt a bit like a bottomless pit.
But this was something she could buy more of.
Who wouldn’t want a healthy body?
Take modern young people, for example—each lazier and weaker than the last. If they knew about such a good thing, they’d be even more frantic than the aunties scrambling for eggs.
Not to mention those in the workforce, constantly drinking and socializing, everyone proudly sporting beer bellies.
Too much socializing inevitably leads to various health issues, which perfectly highlights the importance of the Health Pills.
She had already spent 30 Points on the Health Maintenance Pill and Beauty Enhancement Pill, leaving 70 Points out of the original 100.
The Body Strengthening Pill cost 20 Points per bottle. She could buy 3 bottles, gift two, and keep one for herself.
Who knew when she’d earn more Points? Keeping a backup for herself was always a good idea.
She decided not to spend the remaining 10 Points for now, saving them for when needed.
Currently, the product section only had these three items. Other items were still locked and unclear.
Closing the transparent screen.
Ye Sheng opened Yinlang.
A red bubble with 99+ messages appeared. Seeing the red bubble triggered Ye Sheng’s obsessive-compulsive tendencies—she couldn’t feel comfortable until she cleared it.
Clicking into the fan group, it was filled with her “poor ghost” family members discussing the recent PK and old fans educating new ones.
After a quick glance, Ye Sheng didn’t say anything and quietly exited the fan group, opening Young Master Yang’s private messages.
It was probably about winning against Lily earlier.
「Young Master Yang: Nizi is amazing! My mood has improved, but is it really okay for you to eat so much spicy food every day?」
「Young Master Yang: You should buy some medicine. Your body is your own—there’s no need to eat so much spicy food. I’ll always come to watch your streams.」
「Young Master Yang transferred 100,000 yuan.」
Ye Sheng: !!
The rich are just different, casually throwing out 100,000!
Should she accept it or not?
[Warning! Warning! Unauthorized income detected for the host. Receipt is prohibited. Failure to comply will result in confiscation of all assets acquired through livestreaming and system unbinding.]
Ye Sheng was startled and quickly withdrew her finger, which was about to tap open the red envelope.
Phew! Close call!
Thank goodness she hadn’t opened it, otherwise the System would have left!
Money was important, but the System was even more crucial. The System could bring her so much more.
After all, it was a hundred thousand yuan. It was normal for her heart to flutter. Who could truly treat money like dirt? If anyone claimed they could, they were just being hypocritical.
She declined the receipt.
“Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Yang, but I won’t accept this money. I can’t accept rewards without merit. Since I’ve chosen livestreaming as my career, I’m passionate about it and want to earn money through my own efforts.”
“Young Master Yang, I’m going to send you something. Remember to sign for it when it arrives.”
Exiting Young Master Yang’s chat interface, she opened the private message from big brother Spicy Rabbit Head is the Best.
“Spicy Rabbit Head is the Best: Nizi, your big brother keeps his word. Don’t forget what you promised me.”
“Ye Sheng: Absolutely, bro. Send me your address. I’m going to mail you something.”
Chen Fugui looked at Ye Sheng’s message, puzzled: What was this girl planning to send him?
It couldn’t be like those borderline suggestive streamers, could it?
Sending him all sorts of questionable things, getting him misunderstood by his wife.
Not letting him back into the bedroom to sleep, having to endure his wife’s sarcastic remarks every day!
Chen Fugui shook his head. Probably not. The streamer didn’t seem like that kind of person. He’d better ask first to avoid any misunderstanding.
If it really was like that, he’d just tell her not to send anything and consider himself unlucky.
“Spicy Rabbit Head is the Best: What are you planning to send me?”
“Ye Sheng chuckled: It’s a secret.”
Chen Fugui’s face twisted in discomfort. Speak of the devil.
He was just about to reply and tell Ye Sheng not to send anything when a beautiful woman in a silk nightgown emerged from the bathroom, her hair slightly damp from her recent shower.
This was his wife, Zhu Meixiu, 35 years old, his college sweetheart and the love of his life since their university days.
She was well-maintained, looking like a woman in her twenties, with a curvaceous figure and the graceful demeanor of a young matron.
They had been married for 13 years, and their relationship was loving and harmonious.
If it weren’t for his wife’s love for him, she might have been swept off her feet by some pretty boy long ago.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her; it was just that his wife was too beautiful, and he had to be vigilant.
Not against his wife being unfaithful, but against those pretty boys. Their tricks were numerous, and his wife was too naive; he was afraid she might be deceived.
Beauty wasn’t his wife’s fault, and loving beauty wasn’t wrong either.
The fault lay with those with ill intentions.
What he needed to do was provide his wife with a comfortable life and protect and cherish her.
Zhu Meixiu fiddled with her hair. “Still watching food videos? Stop watching and go take a shower.”
Chen Fugui didn’t hide anything. He told his wife about watching Ye Sheng’s livestream.
Zhu Meixiu scoffed playfully. “You! Such a foodie. Look at that big belly of yours. It’s almost as big as when I was about to give birth.”
Chen Fugui laughed heartily. “You know me. This is my only hobby. Not letting me eat would be worse than killing me.”
Zhu Meixiu shot him a reproachful glare, as if she were deliberately starving him. She was only doing it for his own good.
His health was declining year by year, and he knew it, yet he still wouldn’t watch his diet.
If he passed away early, what would she do? Her mother-in-law and all those aunts would gossip about her until her back was broken.
Her mother-in-law already disliked her. If it weren’t for her husband doting on her and insisting they live separately from the family, she didn’t know how her mother-in-law would have mistreated her.
She knew that in her mother-in-law’s eyes, the ideal daughter-in-law was not her, but the daughter of her mother-in-law’s longtime best friend. Her mother-in-law often said that if she hadn’t appeared out of nowhere, her son would have long since married her best friend’s daughter, and there would have been no place for her.
As long as her husband loved and protected her, she didn’t mind these things.
After marrying him, she never suffered any hardships. He took care of everything perfectly, even personally attending to her during her postpartum confinement, learning whatever he didn’t know.
All of this she saw clearly.
Thirteen years into their marriage, he remained just as devoted, never changing in his affection for her, truly treating her like a daughter to be cherished.
