Gifting Competition
『Lake City』
Inside the female dormitory at Cloud Lake University, Lily's friends were amazed at the generosity of a mysterious donor.
"Wow, Lily, who is that? How can he be so generous?" one of her friends asked.
"Is he one of the seniors who have a crush on you?" another chimed in.
Lily blushed. "Yeah, he's much more generous than Don. Don said he likes you, but when we gave him your streaming ID, he only gave you a little over ten thousand bucks. He stopped following after a few dozen Super Rockets. This guy named Lil Match is so generous!"
Lily was confused. She had no idea who Lil Match was, yet he had immediately given her gifts worth 100 thousand the moment he came in. She had just started streaming not long ago, and most of the people who supported her were fellow students, including her classmates. Don was a senior who had always been her top viewer. He was a year older than her and had been pursuing her.
"Girls, do you think I should add him as a friend?" Lily asked. Streamers would usually add nouveau riche viewers as friends so they could keep them around and continue to receive gifts. Some streamers even went as far as meeting these viewers in person and making sacrifices just to keep them as contacts.
"Lily, just ignore him for now. It's just 100 thousand," one of her friends advised.
"Our Lily is not cheap. If he wants to pursue you, he will expose himself on campus," one of Lily's friends reassured her.
David, who had given out over 100 thousand in gifts to Lily during her stream, didn't stop because he was unwilling to spend more. In fact, he wouldn't even bat an eyelid if he had to give his cousin billions or tens of billions. He was simply worried about scaring the girl if he overdid it. He decided that he would make his move when he went to Lake City during Labor Day.
After giving out the gifts, David left the stream without revealing his identity. He then wandered around Whale Streaming, looking for his perfect match. Whenever he found a streamer he liked, he would give them 66 Super Rockets in one go. He had given out the same gifts to over a dozen people in just an hour. At this point, he had given out over a million and had been in the news more than ten times. David's ID, Lil Match, had become popular on Whale Streaming for a while.
Many small streamers were hoping for Lil Match to enter their streams. If he did, they would receive 66 Super Rockets and a boost in traffic. After wandering around for an hour, David noticed a few words on the bottom right of his computer screen just as he was about to go downstairs.
David clicked on it and the interface changed. It was showing 'Locating, please wait…'
Many small streamers hoped for Lil Match to enter their streams, so they could receive 66 Super Rockets and a boost in traffic. After wandering around for an hour, David noticed a few words on the bottom right of his computer screen just as he was about to go downstairs. He clicked on them and the interface changed, displaying the message 'Locating, please wait…'.
In less than ten seconds, a new batch of streams appeared, showcasing those happening closer to David's location, most of which were in River City. David chose a more popular stream and opened it. As he entered, he saw that the streamer was none other than Amelia Hahn, one of the three most beautiful girls at South River University. An influential figure, Amelia was not only gorgeous but also extremely talented. Her seductive and charming dance had conquered more than 80% of the male creatures during the freshmen party, generating much buzz around her. Some said she was amorous with a few of the handsome and rich boys from different universities, but none of them could win her over, including Leo Tate.
To try and win her heart, these rich and handsome guys would shower her with snacks from overseas, branded clothes, and branded bags. One even gifted her a BMW sports car worth hundreds of thousands. But Amelia remained elusive, wandering among so many rich and handsome guys without letting any of them get too close. Her allure only served to fuel the competitiveness and desire to conquer her from within these guys. Amelia's talent and stunning beauty, coupled with her widespread popularity, made her stream a hit among the students of South River University.
At this point, there were already several thousand people watching the stream. David's appearance naturally caused a small uproar. After all, he had just given away over one million dollars, and there were more than a dozen advertisements about him ongoing. Moreover, his account had leveled up to over Level 100.
In Whale Streaming, one could level up by giving out gifts. They would go up one level if they gave out ten thousand dollars, and there was no limit to how much they could grow. The higher their level, the more extravagant their entrance. David had just given out 1.72 million, which meant he had reached 172 levels. This was already the highest level in the stream, and he immediately became Rank 1 upon entering. The person in Rank 2 was only at Level 120.
"Welcome to the stream, Mr. Lil Match," Amelia's voice greeted David as soon as he entered. He did not want to waste any time saying nonsense, so he directly gave her 66 Super Rockets. A message displayed on the screen, announcing "Lil Match gave streamer Hahny Super Rocket x66."
"Thank you for the Super Rockets, Mr. Lil Match. Do you want to hear me sing or watch me dance?" Amelia asked, hoping to impress the high-profile streamer.
"Wow, Lil Match is here!" exclaimed a viewer.
"Matchy is such a baller! He always gives 66 Super Rockets no matter which stream he joins," commented another.
"Respect, Matchy! I've been searching for you all day," said another.
"Mr. Match, do you need someone to hold your bag for you?" more comments flooded the chat. Suddenly, a new big shot entered the stream, surpassing even David's level 298 and pushing him down to Rank 2.
"Amelia, if I become Rank 1 tonight, will you go on a date with me tomorrow?" asked Mr. Leo, a wealthy and popular figure on campus.
"Sure, Leo. If you become Rank 1, I'll go on a date with you," Amelia replied sweetly, causing a frenzy in the chat.
"Who is this Mr. Perfect Leo Tate? Is he going to win over our goddess?" the viewers wondered.
"Leo's family is loaded. He'll spend a fortune to win over Amelia," speculated another.
"This will be huge news tomorrow. 'Mr. Perfect Leo Tate spends millions to win over the most beautiful girl on campus, Amelia Hahn,'" predicted someone else.
David had originally planned to leave, but now he was determined to ruin Leo's scheme. "You think you can steal Amelia from me and Sarah? Dream on, you bastard. I'll take some interest from you first, and then slowly collect what you owe me."
Leo was determined to win Amelia's heart tonight, after relentlessly pursuing her for so long without success or rejection. He was eager to have her, as Amelia had a magnetic aura that could stimulate a man's hormones just by being around her. Leo's parents were successful businesspeople in River City with a net worth of over a billion, and they never hesitated to spend lavishly. Moreover, Leo was renowned as Mr. Perfect on campus. Whenever he set his sights on a girl, he used his financial prowess to woo her, and he had never failed before. He even had a few dalliances with female streamers in the past. However, when he met Amelia, he realized he had met his match. Leo spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on her within a few months, yet he had not even held her hand. Other suitors had also failed to win her over, but this only spurred Leo's desire to conquer her heart. He resolved to spend whatever it took to win Amelia's love tonight. Not only would it fulfill his desire, but it would also be a snub to his competitors. As for Sarah, she was a thing of the past, and he was nearly finished with her. If Sarah didn't mind, he might continue to play around with her for a few more days. But if she thought she could compete with Amelia for his affections, she should just fuck off.
