CHAPTER 166: CHAPTER 166 THE BREAKUP ON THE OTHER SIDE (EXPLOSIVE UPDATE 2/5)

So, when audiences watched those so-called tycoons, the ’Gods of Wealth’, splurging hundreds of thousands, even millions of yuan at a time on the live-streaming platform, it truly made their hearts pound. Their adrenaline soared!

This was how the "tycoon fans" came to be.

Some who loved a spectacle and weren’t shy about stirring up drama even ran to the livestream room of Feiyu’s top broadcaster, Ping’er. They proclaimed that with another God of Wealth on Feiyu, Brother Tian’s position as the number one tycoon would be in jeopardy and that Ping’er’s Feiyu Star title was about to slip through her fingers.

Neither of them took these bullet comments to heart. Xia Liang hadn’t shown enough strength yet.

One had to remember, one of them was the top broadcaster on Feiyu, with dozens of Emperors in her VIP room daily. The other was a God of Wealth who had spent twenty million yuan on Feiyu. Even if Xia Liang was rich, could one person stand up to the combined strength of more than a dozen Emperors plus Brother Tian?

At that, Ping’er said coyly, "Wow! Three hundred Super Rockets! I’ve never seen so many at once. Brother Tian, I want some too..."

Brother Tian responded with an air of authority.

[Alright! No problem. Just three hundred Super Rockets? If you want them, you’ve got them.]

In reality, with his spending power, six hundred thousand yuan wasn’t a small amount, but it wasn’t that much to him either. After all, to help Ping’er secure first place this time, he had prepared a full ten million yuan.

But Ping’er was just saying it for show. She knew Brother Tian was saving that money for her later PK battles. All she wanted was the gesture. This gave her a great deal of face, so she quickly waved her hands.

"No need, Brother Tian. I’m already satisfied with the thought. I was just kidding."

On the other side, Xia Liang was gifting rockets again.

He sent another two hundred rockets. Combined with his earlier gifts, that made for a total of three hundred rockets, costing a full one million yuan. It successfully sent the adrenaline levels of the audience in the livestream room skyrocketing.

"Awesome! We’re just in the round of 100 to 50, and he’s already dropped a million in tips!"

"That’s a full million!"

"You could buy a house with that!"

"Summer God Hao! Do you remember that half a pancake from back in the day?"

* * *

Watching these bullet comments, Xia Liang felt incredibly bored. After all, the total amount he had gifted was less than two million yuan, while his account still held over nine hundred and ninety-eight million.

When will this ever end!

Xia Liang sighed and closed the livestream. Livestreaming? How could it possibly be more fun than gaming?

And while Xia Liang was busy defending Konoha Village, far away in Jingqu City, Tong Dongnuan was in torment inside her room.

Resting on her lap was a woman even more beautiful than she was. Her face could be described as devastatingly beautiful, her skin as clear as jade, and she was as lovely as a lotus emerging from the water.

"Darling? What’s wrong?"

Clearly, Yuling, resting on her lap, sensed Tong Dongnuan’s discomfort.

Tong Dongnuan forced a smile that was uglier than a cry. "Nothing... It’s nothing."

She still hadn’t figured out how to tell Yuling.

Hearing this, Yuling suddenly sat up, staring into Tong Dongnuan’s eyes. "Are you hiding something from me?"

Looking into Yuling’s eyes, Tong Dongnuan felt a pang of guilt and averted her gaze to the television. "How could I possibly...?"

Seeing Tong Dongnuan act this way, Yuling forcefully turned her head to face her. "Look at me!"

"Wha... What is it?" The guilty Tong Dongnuan didn’t dare to meet Yuling’s eyes.

"Are you having an affair?"

????

What the hell!

Upon hearing this, Tong Dongnuan jolted. She dropped all pretense, her eyes widening. "How did you know?"

"So it’s true?" Yuling’s eyes narrowed, and a dangerous aura emanated from her. "Who is that vixen?"

"Huh? Vixen?"

Clearly, Yuling assumed Tong Dongnuan had been seduced by another woman. Seeing that Yuling had already figured most of it out...

If I’m going to die, so be it! Tong Dongnuan decided to stop hiding the truth. "It’s not a woman. It’s a man. I... I’m with him now."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Yuling’s pupils suddenly dilated. "A man!"

She instantly snatched her hand back and scrambled backwards, accidentally bumping into the corner of the table.

Startled, Tong Dongnuan tried to go to her. "Xiao Ling, are you okay?"

"Don’t come near me!" Yuling glared at Tong Dongnuan angrily.

Tong Dongnuan had no choice but to remain where she stood. "Xiao Ling... you..."

Tong Dongnuan wanted to explain, but she didn’t know how. She knew that when Yuling was a child, she’d had a monstrous stepfather. Although Yuling hadn’t been physically harmed, the experience had left her with a deep-seated trauma. She despised men, feeling sickened by the slightest contact.

Originally, Tong Dongnuan had thought she could never be with Xia Liang. That was why she had given up on finding a boyfriend and had found a girlfriend instead. Who would have thought that on her recent trip, she and Xia Liang would have somehow ended up together?

Yuling’s eyes were bloodshot, with tears welling up. "You’re joking, right?"

Tong Dongnuan knew this was the time to make a clean break. If she was soft-hearted now, she would only hurt Yuling more later. With that thought, she gritted her teeth.

"No. We got together this time. I can’t let him go. I’ve told you about him so many times. He’s different from other men."

Hearing Tong Dongnuan’s admission, Yuling’s face grew several shades paler. "Tong Dongnuan! Are you really breaking up with me for a man?"

Seeing Yuling’s expression, Tong Dongnuan felt a wave of self-reproach, but she had no other choice. She could only nod.

"Yes!"

The affirmation struck Yuling like a clap of thunder, making her stagger.

Tong Dongnuan cried out, "Xiao Xue!" and rushed to support her.

"Don’t come near me!" But Yuling refused her help.

"Fine!" Yuling gave Tong Dongnuan one last, deep look. "I hope you don’t regret this!"

With that, Yuling stumbled out of the room. Tong Dongnuan quickly chased after her and grabbed her arm. In this state, Yuling might do something foolish.

Yuling repeatedly struck Tong Dongnuan’s hand. "Let go! Let go of me!"

"I won’t!" Despite the pain, Tong Dongnuan refused to let go, pulling Yuling into a tight embrace. "You can hit me, you can scream at me, but I am not letting you go."

"Waaaaah..."

Finally, Yuling couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst into loud sobs, her hands weakly slapping Tong Dongnuan’s back.

"Why? Why are you still holding on to me? We’ve already broken up, haven’t we? What are you still doing here?"

At this moment, Tong Dongnuan didn’t know what to do either. She could only repeat apologies. "I’m sorry, I’m so sorry..."

After what felt like an eternity, Yuling finally stopped crying in her arms.

"Let me go now."

"Hm?" Hearing this, Tong Dongnuan didn’t release her. Instead, she held on even tighter.

Yuling spoke again, her voice soft. "Don’t worry. I won’t run off this time."

"Really?" Clearly, Tong Dongnuan didn’t believe her.

"Really."

Only after Yuling’s second assurance did Tong Dongnuan slowly loosen her grip.
