I treated you like a godfather, and you actually dated my sister!

Seeing the blacked-out live stream, Cao Qihao subconsciously exited the live stream and started checking the earnings.

When he saw the string of zeros after the 1, his mouth involuntarily opened wide.

One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand...

"This...this is economic freedom?"

Hearing Cao Qihao's words, Lin Bei leaned over to take a look, and when he saw the number, he wasn't surprised.

Qu Hao initially spent his entire month's living expenses to gain popularity, and his combined spending with Adasi amounted to about the same.

Add to that the crowd of people who just joined in the fun; there really weren't many who actually put in the effort that Qu Man put in later.

The broadcast time was too short. If it were longer, and if Qu Man, who is so eager to protect her husband, were further provoked, it would have been easy for the beginning to surpass level 2!

Lin Bei yawned and patted Cao Qihao on the shoulder.

Remember to pay your taxes tomorrow when you have some free time!

"How much do I need to pay?"

"I don't know, you can look it up yourself. Anyway, I'm going to sleep now, I'm exhausted after this day."

"Wait, the last two bottles are just enough for one person!"

As he spoke, Adasi opened two bottles of Wusu beer and handed them to Lin Bei!

Qu Hao glanced at the two drunkards, then put away his DSLR camera and went to bed, clearly displeased.

He was convinced, he even risked offending Qu Man to continue, but he was banned before he could even make a move. How could he be happy?

He originally intended to cause trouble for Qin Ze, but now it's all over. He doesn't know if Qin Ze will be in trouble, but he's definitely going to be in trouble!

He really didn't expect that Qu Man would come.

Given her character, why would she join in the fun?

At first, Qu Hao didn't understand, but he realized it after seeing the word "breakup".

So it turns out she was upset about the breakup and couldn't sleep!

The thought of Qu Man with her world-weary face, tossing and turning in bed unable to sleep because of relationship troubles made Qu Hao's lips curl up in a smile.

Qu Man ah~

In his mind, she was categorized as a tomboy like Abbess Miejue.

This woman, because of a man, tossed and turned, unable to sleep...

tsk tsk~

Yeah, right!

Why did my mood suddenly improve?!

Qu Hao grinned, showing off in front of Qu Man right now if he weren't physically outmatched!

"Yo yo yo~ Isn't this the Breakup Sister! How does it feel to be dumped by a younger man? Aren't you happy? Feeling old and unattractive now!"

Qu Hao was happily lost in thought, but the scene suddenly shifted, and Qu Man sneered as she turned and lifted her leg...

"Bang!"

Thinking that the scene in his mind might actually happen, Qu Hao stopped smiling.

He only just realized that he seemed to have offended this living ancestor!

Qu Man really seems like she's going to kick him to death!

Qu Hao shivered, curled up, pulled the blanket over his head, and thought, "What the hell? I'll just live one day at a time. Why think so much?"

The dormitory fell completely silent. If it weren't for the aroma of barbecue wafting into his nose, Cao Qihao would have felt like he was dreaming.

He just wanted to help Qin Ze relieve his depression today, how did he suddenly become financially independent?

Saying they're financially free might be a bit of an exaggeration, but that amount of money is definitely enough to buy a small apartment there.

He just did the math, and after paying the taxes, he still had about 70 yuan left.

Seventy-odd may not sound like much, but for ordinary people like them, it would take at least half a lifetime to earn that much.

So it only took one night?

No, to be precise, it only took a little over an hour!

Looking at the balance that had been withdrawn into his account, Cao Qihao couldn't help but grin.

He said that studying is very important. Without years of hard work, how could he have gotten into Pengda University? And without getting into Pengda University, how could he have met these amazing roommates?

What he did today was simply to show concern for his friend, but the result has brought him such great wealth.

Although there was some spite involved between Qu Hao and Qin Ze, it actually brought him real benefits.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, he was indeed the beneficiary, and he must remember this favor.

He turned halfway to his mother's side and closed his eyes, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tossed and turned.

The dopamine released by his brain acted like a stimulant, keeping him wide awake.

Cao Qihao wasn't the only one who couldn't sleep that night; Qu Man, far away in Pengcheng Bay, also couldn't sleep.

Qu Man barely slept a wink that night; every time she closed her eyes, all she could see was that bratty little brother.

She couldn't understand why she was still thinking about that awful guy even though he had broken up with her.

She should be angry and forgetting right now, but she doesn't feel that way. Instead, she really wants to see him and kiss him!

Qu Man sensed that she was ill.

Mental illness, and a very serious one at that.

Tormented by Qin Ze in her mind, unable to forget him or sleep, Qu Man angrily grabbed a pillow from the side, covered her chest with it, and punched it hard twice.

As for standing Qin Ze up in the afternoon, she didn't think about it at all, little did she know that Qin Ze had been tormented by her all afternoon!

Anyway, it's all her little brother's fault now. If he hadn't broken up with her, would she be unable to sleep?!

"Bang bang bang~"

"You bastard, it's all because of you! I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death!"

After venting her frustrations to the pillow, Qu Man used the pillow she had hit as a cushion, lay flat on the bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She stared at it all night, and it wasn't until dawn that she came to her senses.

Blinking and glancing at the sky outside the window, Qu Man rolled over and got out of bed.

"You brat, just you wait, you're going to suffer terribly today!"

Qu Man murmured to herself, thinking about what was about to happen. She was incredibly energetic and didn't seem like someone who hadn't slept all night.

......

Compared to Qu Man, Qin Ze slept soundly that night, not only without having a single dream, but also sleeping very deeply.

When you open and close your eyes, guess what happens?

Hey~ It's dawn!

"Hmm~?"

Qin Ze habitually touched his lower abdomen, then suddenly hummed in response, sensing something was amiss.

In the past, when I touched it, I could feel the friction of the clothes on the back of my hand, but why does it feel so empty today?

Qin Ze looked down and then his face turned horrified!

Not only are his clothes gone, but what are those two things on his chest? Did he put these on before going to bed?

It can't be~

Thinking of this, Qin Ze lowered his gaze a few more times and shifted his body again!

He breathed a sigh of relief after finding that everything was normal.

Thankfully, nothing unexpected happened, and he's still clean!

Sitting up, Qin Ze wiped the cold sweat from his body, which had just been startled, and turned around...

"Holy crap!"

Qin Ze exclaimed in surprise.

"Old Cao, why aren't you sleeping this early in the morning? What are you staring at me for?"

The cold sweat that had just subsided has returned, and now it's back, making my hair stand on end!

His bed was directly opposite Cao Qihao's, separated by a staircase leading to the other bed. He hadn't noticed it while lying down, but now, sitting up and turning around, he was nearly scared to death.

Indeed, Cao Qihao's current appearance is somewhat frightening.

Can you imagine waking up and turning around to find someone with dark circles under their eyes and a face as white as a ghost sitting on the headboard staring at you?

Silent and still, just like he was dead, it was terrifying!

It's already dawn. If it were still dark, Qin Ze would have to jump off a building and run away.

"You're... awake..."

Cao Qihao's voice was somewhat hoarse, and his speech was intermittent, which sounded particularly eerie. Coupled with the dimly lit sky, Qin Ze could no longer sit still.

She rolled over and jumped off the bed, her upper body bare with two X's on her chest, and landed on Lin Bei's bed.

Then, with a large fist, he slapped Lin Bei across the face!

"Screw your sleeping, wake up! Old Cao's possessed!"
