Are These People Crazy?

Chen Che’s sudden action shocked the cameraman.

When he came back to his senses, he could not help but say to himself, “I really hit the jackpot by following this kid!”

[Why is he running? Is he going to work?]

[But didn’t he promise Lin Xi that he would take a taxi?]

[Sigh, Chen Che is really a role model in the money-saving world. Please accept my knees!]

While the netizens were discussing, Lin Xi stood by the window and also saw Chen Che’s back.

When Chen Che disappeared, Lin Xi sighed and muttered in her heart again.

Chen Che saved money just to marry her? Was there really no other reason?

Nearing midnight, strange comments sounded on the Internet again, attracting many netizens to watch and participate in the discussion.

However, the impact this time was clearly not as good as before, but it affected the increase in the stats of Team 7.

Luo Yuelin, who had been paying close attention, was already very satisfied with this.

At four in the morning, Chen Che returned to the self-service withdrawal hall and deposited the money into the system as usual.

Because he was a little tired tonight, he hurriedly fell asleep and did not see everything on the Internet.

…

The next day, Chen Che went through the same routine. Although he only slept for a few hours, he was full of energy.

It had to be said that his physique was indeed not bad.

When it was almost eight o’clock, Lin Xi arrived on time. The two of them went to the park for breakfast.

During the meal, he noticed that Lin Xi seemed to have something on her mind. Chen Che hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Looks like you still don’t know.” Lin Xi sighed.

Chen Che was stunned. “What happened? Tell me quickly.”

Lin Xi quickly explained, “Last night, some influencers came out to lead the hate comments. They said that our gifts yesterday were all arranged in advance. Everything we did was a script. Anyway, they said something similar.”

“Moreover, it was them last time. If they were trying to gain popularity previously, they’re obviously trying to defame us now.”

“I really don’t understand what they can gain by doing this.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Che was also unhappy. “Are these people crazy? Are they addicted to defaming us? Which part of me looks like I’m acting?”

“No, I endured it last time. This time, I have to counterattack!”

“Forget it.” Lin Xi hurriedly stopped Chen Che. “It’s impossible to argue with them. Moreover, the more you talk to them, the more excited they get from the attention.”

“So we’re just going to endure it?” Chen Che frowned.

“What else can we do? Just ignore it.” Lin Xi shrugged.

Chen Che gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind. After a year, he would definitely settle scores with these people!

“By the way, has the company been affected again?” Chen Che asked.

Lin Xi shook her head. “No, the effect this time is not as good as last time. With the previous lesson, most netizens are still rational.”

“Furthermore, as the number of fans increased, the fans went to help fight back without us needing to do anything.”

“It’s just that our statistics are affected. Otherwise, we could gain a lot of fans yesterday. Now we’re ranked third.”

“Aiya, that doesn’t matter as long as the company is fine.” Chen Che heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “Don’t think too much about it. We’re upright and aren’t afraid of petty tricks.”

“Yes.” Lin Xi nodded.

At this moment, the VJ arrived. Chen Che and Lin Xi ended the topic and happily ate their breakfast.

…

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

During this period, Chen Che did everything step by step. Through hard work, the system now had nearly 8,000 dollars in capital.

Looking at the rising numbers, Chen Che did not feel tired at all.

In terms of public opinion, although there were still people still insisting he’s an actor, the live-stream never lacked anti-fans. Fortunately, the fans were more supportive and did not need Chen Che and Lin Xi to do anything.

Just as Lin Xi had said, if they ignored it, the evil words would naturally dissipate.

In terms of statistics, Team 7 had always been hovering at the third or fourth place. They could not go up or down.

The first place was still in Team 5, which was nearly 200,000 votes ahead of the second place.

If anyone wanted to surpass them, they had to be extremely popular.

Chen Che had always believed that this set of data was not real. It must be the power of money.

The second place was Team 8, leading by 50,000 votes.

The female guest in this group was Tian Xiao, a B-list celebrity. Her boyfriend was Gao Xuan, a web series director.

Not only did the two of them have their own traffic, but they also looked like the most compatible pair among the ten groups of participants.

From the beginning, the two of them did not have any scandals. They were either filming or showing off their love. Many netizens thought highly of them.

It was precisely because of this that even though there were not many votes in the lead, it was still very difficult to surpass this group. Otherwise, Chen Che’s group would not be hovering between the third and fourth place.

As for the groups after the fourth place, the statistics were almost the same. The competition was abnormally intense, and each group was performing in different ways.

Although the gap between them and first place is wider than before, it was not the end yet. No one wanted to give up.

Only one group was a little boring. That was Fang Weixun’s group, which was ranked at the bottom.

Ever since those two attempts, many people disliked this group. Even if they tried their best to salvage the situation, the effect was not obvious.

Fang Weixun became much more low-key when he saw Chen Che and the other two. After all, they were already at the bottom, what qualifications do they have to laugh at others?

…

Early in the morning, Chen Che and Lin Xi had breakfast in the park as usual.

Seeing that VJ was not here, Chen Che smiled and said, “Did the camera team have another meeting?”

“That’s right. I was just about to tell you about this.” Lin Xi nodded and continued, “Recently, the overall traffic has decreased. The production team thinks that sharing a couple’s daily life every day is already exhausting for the netizens, so they have to come up with something new.”

“The response to the Most Meaningful Gift event last time was not bad, so the production team is planning to increase the number of events to increase its popularity.”

Chen Che’s eyes lit up. “Is there money to be made?”

“As long as there are sponsors, there will definitely be rewards, but it might not be money. It might be items or something,” Lin Xi replied.

“Forget about prizes. It’s meaningless.” Chen Che pursed his lips.

“You’re only focused on money.” Lin Xi smiled.

Chen Che chuckled. “I’m earning money to marry a wife. Besides, aren’t netizens quite fond of watching?”

“Recently, I’ve often seen a saying. It says that if they don’t tune in to us for a day, their entire body will feel uncomfortable.”

“Then there’s another saying. It says that you want to see us suffer, but you choose to ignore it, right?” Lin Xi covered her mouth and smiled.

“I only care about the good stuff and to maintain a good mood. Didn’t you teach me this? Look at how much I listen to my girlfriend. Such a good boyfriend is really not bad.” Chen Che praised himself.

Lin Xi pouted. “Forget it. Then why didn’t you listen when I told you not to scrimp and save, and eat and drink properly?”

Chen Che hurriedly looked at his watch. “Ah, it’s time to send you to work. Let’s go.”

“You’re avoiding the problem again. You’re not obedient at all.” Lin Xi pretended to be angry and gently pinched Chen Che’s waist.

“Aiya, my girlfriend is angry. As compensation, I’ll carry you to work.” Without waiting for Lin Xi’s reaction, Chen Che carried her on his back.

Lin Xi blushed. “Annoying. Put me down quickly. There are so many people watching.”

“I’m carrying my own wife, why are you afraid of others looking?” Chen Che retorted.

Lin Xi was speechless. She hugged Chen Che tightly. Although her face was red, she was brimming with happiness.
