Hearing the sound of the dormitory door opening, Zhang Xiaoyu turned around and saw Xia Yiqing coming in with her bag. "Yiqing, you're back."

"Hmm, Xiaoyu, you didn't stay in the dorm all day, did you?" Xia Yiqing put down her backpack and asked as she sat down.

Although they haven't been classmates for long, they live together and have a general understanding of each other's lifestyles.

Of the four, Zhang Xiaoyu is the most of all homebodies, spending most of her free time in her dorm room. She doesn't like going out to hang out with friends or participating in school activities.

Zhou Yueling is the one who loves to run around the most. She likes to play with her friends and also likes to drag her classmates to participate in all kinds of interesting activities.

Even at eight or nine o'clock at night, I like to wander around the dormitories of friends I know, so my nightlife is quite lively. I'm a person who can't sit still.

Xia Yiqing doesn't spend much time in the dormitory. Most of her time is spent either studying in the library or doing part-time jobs.

Even the more reserved Chen Shiya, after joining a club she liked and meeting a group of like-minded people, became very enthusiastic about participating in club activities. She rarely missed even informal events.

So in the end, because Zhang Xiaoyu was a slow-to-warm-up person and not good at making friends, she didn't know anyone except a few roommates, and thus became the undisputed number one homebody in dormitory 709.

"No, no, you forgot? I was going to my club activity today, and I played ping-pong indoors all morning."

Their club activities are scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m. and end at 11:30 a.m., which is a considerable amount of time for exercise.

However, Xia Yiqing left early. Zhang Xiaoyu remembered that when she vaguely heard the door close in the morning, she glanced at the time and it was only seven o'clock.

She and Xia Yiqing were from other provinces, while Zhou Yueling and Chen Shiya were locals. So they usually went home on Friday nights, and there were usually only two of them in the dormitory on weekends.

Xia Yiqing asked knowingly, "What about the afternoon?"

She went to tutor in the morning, from 9:00 to 11:00, which was exactly two hours. However, she always gets up early, and she didn't waste the rest of her time either. She found a place to study and only went to the student's house for tutoring when it was time.

I went straight to work at a Western restaurant in the afternoon and didn't go back to school. I didn't get back until almost 7 o'clock now.

Zhang Xiaoyu: "I went to work this afternoon. I've been really diligent lately."

Xia Yiqing: "Going to work? Oh, you mean the live stream?"

She subconsciously opened the Starlight app to check on Zhang Xiaoyu's situation, but then stopped, her eyes hesitant. Was she spying on him?

"Yes, I originally planned to have some fun in the afternoon and do it in the evening, but since I didn't stream on Thursday and Friday, I went to stream in the afternoon," Zhang Xiaoyu said.

She was also a little embarrassed. Sister Queen and Fanzi were asking her if she was busy lately. They weren't urging her to do live streams, but she was just embarrassed. She felt bad about taking a break when she had free time.

Furthermore, the operations team also told her to strike while the iron was hot and to make more appearances while things were looking up, otherwise the little fan base she had built up through luck would soon be lost due to her laziness.

Zhang Xiaoyu is a very receptive person, so even though she had a tendency to be lazy, she still started broadcasting in the end. In fact, the time didn't pass as slowly as she had imagined.

Perhaps it's because there aren't many people in her live stream, and the people who are willing to watch her live stream are all very nice, tolerant and gentle, and there aren't any troublemakers or oddballs, so time passes quite quickly and she doesn't get very tired.

"By the way, Yiqing, have you had dinner yet?"

"I ate already, how about you?"

"I've already eaten. I ordered takeout, and since it's delivered to my dorm room, it didn't take as long as usual."

Xia Yiqing held her phone and asked softly, "Xiaoyu, if I look at your live stream backstage out of curiosity, would you find it annoying?"

Zhang Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment.

Xia Yiqing quickly explained, "I didn't mean any harm, and I didn't want to spy on you. I was just curious. Because you, me, and Yueling are all in the same dormitory and started live streaming on the same day, it's inevitable that I would pay attention to the two of you."

Actually, she was mainly concerned about Zhang Xiaoyu's situation; perhaps she just had a bit of a competitive streak. She didn't care as much about Yueling's slightly worse performance.

But Xiaoyu's result was much better than hers, which made her care a lot more.

Xia Yiqing was starting to doubt whether she was just not suited for this line of work, or if she simply didn't have the luck.

She couldn't compare to her high school classmate, and now she couldn't even compare to her roommate. Everyone was better than her. Xia Yiqing was anxious and wondered why it was so unfair.

But she also clearly understood in her heart that there is no absolute fairness in this world.

People say that appearance and birth are a kind of genetic lottery.

She was prettier than Zhang Xiaoyu and prettier than many girls from birth. Is that fair?

Is it fair that many people are born richer than her?

Zhang Xiaoyu didn't mind: "It's okay, you can look if you want. Actually, I've seen yours and Yueling's too. This information is out in the open, anyone can see it."

It doesn't matter if you watch it, but Zhang Xiaoyu doesn't like her live stream being publicized.

So far, apart from a few roommates, no one knows that she is live streaming.

Zhang Xiaoyu also trusted her roommates' character. They wouldn't deliberately spread the word; it was more like a secret in their dorm. Everyone understood and kept a low profile, not wanting the whole world to know and cause trouble.

Xia Yiqing promised, "Xiaoyu, don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone about our live stream. There are too many people talking, and rumors can be dangerous. It's better to avoid trouble."

Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and agreed: "Yeah, let's keep it a secret together. I also think it's enough for our dorm members to know. If too many people know, it might cause some gossip. I don't want to hear my name mentioned in Yueling's gossip one day."

Most people should be able to understand, but even if only a small number of people try to cause trouble with this, it will bring problems.

With the person's consent, Xia Yiqing was finally able to look at the other person's account without any burden. Then she froze on the spot and almost became depressed!

"Xiao, Xiaoyu, you've become a millionaire?!"

Xia Yiqing stared wide-eyed at Zhang Xiaoyu, then looked down at her phone. She was certain she hadn't added an extra zero!

How can this woman be so terrifying?!

They're all in the same dorm, roommates, so why is there such a big difference?

Is her roommate some kind of chosen one?!

"Your daily ranking today is over 1.5 million?!"

Xia Yiqing stared at the user named "Pen, Ink, Paper, and Inkstone"—the string of numbers after his name was a seven-figure sum! Was this what a super-rich person was like? He'd spent over 1.5 million on Xiaoyu in just one day?!

How rich must he be? Is his net worth already over 100 million?

He's also number one on the overall leaderboard; he alone spent over 1.6 million!

This is real money! Not virtual currency!

Xia Yiqing looked dazed. As expected, live streaming really does make money; Xiaoyu had already confirmed it.
