Tycoon: From Rags to Riches

Chapter 152: Chapter 143: Blood Bar Disappearance Technique

"What do you think?"

Gu Heng’s gaze swept over Shuyue’s sophisticated face, then over to her younger sister Shuyu, a half-smile playing on his lips.

Seeing this, Shuyue immediately understood what Gu Heng meant.

It was obvious. Gu Heng intended to have both sisters tonight.

A crimson blush crept across Shuyue’s face once she realized his intentions.

While they were willing to push the envelope in their short videos online and were quite open-minded in person—not at all conservative—they still had their basic boundaries.

’Both sisters at once...’

That was something neither of them could easily accept.

Shuyue gazed at Gu Heng’s sharp, chiseled profile, biting her lip. "Chairman Gu, two won’t work. Only one."

"Oh..."

Gu Heng gave a slight nod, understanding her meaning. "In that case, forget it."

After saying that, Gu Heng paid Shuyue no more attention.

What he wanted was the twin sisters package. Without the "twin sisters" buff, taking either Shuyue or Shuyu alone was rather underwhelming for Gu Heng.

In terms of looks and figure, Shuyue and Shuyu were clearly a step down compared to girls like Bingbing, Xinxin, and Yangyang.

If he were choosing just one, Gu Heng would definitely pick Bingbing and the others first. On their own, Shuyue and Shuyu had no advantage to speak of.

Seeing Gu Heng’s attitude, Shuyue opened her mouth, wanting to salvage the situation, but she didn’t know what to say.

"Sis..."

"What did Chairman Gu say to you just now?"

Shuyu had noticed her sister and Gu Heng talking in low voices. Now that they were done, she immediately leaned in, blinking as she pressed Shuyue for details.

Faced with her sister’s question, Shuyue glanced at Gu Heng beside her, then cupped her hand and whispered a few quick words into her sister’s ear.

After Shuyue finished, Shuyu’s face quickly flushed red as well.

"Sis..."

Suddenly, Shuyu called out to Shuyue.

"What is it?"

Shuyue’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she saw Shuyu’s increasingly flushed face.

"If it’s Chairman Gu..."

Shuyu stammered for a long moment before finally saying, "...it’s not impossible."

Shuyue’s beautiful eyes widened slightly as she stared at Shuyu in disbelief.

"You little brat!"

"You’re just desperate, aren’t you!"

Shuyue reached out and pinched Shuyu’s slender waist, feeling both annoyed and embarrassed.

But even though she said that, her heart was in turmoil, unable to calm down.

Just as Shuyue’s mind was racing with conflicting thoughts, Yaya and Lili, who had just finished dancing up front, walked back.

"You two, sit here."

Gu Heng beckoned to the two girls, then gestured to the twin sisters. "You two, move aside."

As Gu Heng’s words fell, the hearts of Shuyue and Shuyu sank. The other girls exchanged glances, their expressions unreadable.

Looking at Gu Heng’s calm and indifferent face, Shuyue belatedly realized that the moment she had rejected him, she and her sister had been eliminated.

’Expecting Gu Heng to pester them endlessly?’

’That was pure wishful thinking.’

Realizing this, Shuyue’s face turned pale.

She and her sister had been sitting next to Gu Heng for so long. They had even held it in when they needed to use the restroom, and when they couldn’t hold it any longer, they’d run there and back as fast as possible, terrified of losing their seats.

But in the end, it all went to someone else, and the sisters were marginalized. How could she accept that?

But no matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to take her glass, lead her sister, and move aside, giving their original spots to Yaya and Lili.

As they say, one person’s sorrow is another’s joy. Compared to the resentful twin sisters, Yaya and Lili hadn’t expected to be able to sit next to Gu Heng upon their return. They were in high spirits, taking their glasses and sitting right down beside him.

"I’m about to hit Level 70."

"Start your stream. I’ll send you some gifts so you didn’t dance for nothing."

Gu Heng tilted his head slightly and said to Yaya beside him.

"Wow!"

"Thank you, Chairman Gu!"

Yaya was thrilled. It might only be a single level from Level 69 to Level 70, but that one level was a massive hurdle, requiring 2.3 million in cold, hard cash to fill the experience bar.

To put it in perspective, the total cost to go from Level 1 to Level 60 was only 2.2 million. This showed just how difficult it was to get from Level 69 to Level 70.

"Go ahead and start."

Gu Heng clinked glasses with Yaya and the others, then downed his drink in one go.

Afterward, Yaya took out her phone, quickly logged into her account, and started her live stream.

"Who should I PK battle?"

Yaya looked at the long list of friends, her expression a bit conflicted.

"Just pick the toughest one."

Gu Heng took a drag from his Habanos GR and suggested to Yaya, "I just heard them say TikTok is holding its annual carnival tournament, right? Pick one of the top-ranked major influencers to battle. The more big-shot supporters they have, the better."

"Okay."

"I’ll give it a try."

"It’s just that they might look down on me."

Yaya had never felt so confident in her entire streaming career. Her eyes sparkled, eager to give it a shot.

"When you send the PK invite, you can tell them I’m in your stream. I’m pretty sure they won’t refuse once they see that."

Gu Heng calmly entered Yaya’s stream and added.

"Brother Hangwang, can I battle Mao Mao?"

Yaya searched for a while before finally clicking on a female influencer’s profile in the top ten of the leaderboard. "She’s currently Number 1 in the Huishi Province region. She has over forty thousand people in her stream. Does she meet your requirements?"

As Yaya spoke, her voice trembled with excitement.

Even though their follower counts on TikTok were similar, when it came to live streaming and PK battles, even ten of her combined couldn’t beat her opponent.

A streamer like Mao Mao, who could firmly hold the Number 1 spot in her region, had basically mastered a Supreme Ultimate Skill—the Blood Bar Disappearance Technique!

When an ordinary streamer PK-battled her, they were usually annihilated right from the start.

If you were to classify them by "track," all the female influencers here tonight, regardless of their millions of followers, were "looks-track" streamers, maybe dabbling a bit in the "talent track." But a streamer like Mao Mao belonged to the "PK track."

In short, they were professional PK battlers.

Compared to the looks track, the PK track’s difficulty was second only to the e-commerce sales track.

Of course, difficulty and income were directly proportional.

A major streamer on the PK track like Mao Mao had a monthly income that easily dwarfed that of all the other female influencers present. Even if you combined the earnings of several of them, they wouldn’t even come close.

In the past, Yaya had always steered clear of streamers like this.

It was only because Gu Heng was by her side today that she dared to have such an extravagant hope.

"Battle her!"

Gu Heng’s words were concise, his voice filled with an inexplicable dominance.

"Okay."

Yaya pursed her lips and mustered the courage to send the PK invitation.

At this moment, as Yaya started her stream, many of her die-hard fans received a system notification and followed it into her stream room.

Seeing the familiar dim background behind Yaya and hearing the equally familiar male voice, many of her male fans were instantly triggered.

"Yaya, you promised you’d charter a car back to Hang City right after fulfilling your bet in Zhonghai! How could you go back on your word!"

"My heart is broken! My goddess is no longer pure in my heart!"

"Yaya, how could you do this to me? When I saw you were streaming, I even gave up my ready-to-go flight, and this is what I get to see?"

"Who’s that dog of a man next to you? Is it that bastard Prince Heng? What the hell is he doing tonight? How many female influencers has he poached?"

"I envy not the lovebirds nor the immortals, I only envy Prince Heng’s every day!"

"Do you dare tell me where you are? I’m going to call the cops and report you for holding an orgy right now, unless you let me join!"

...

Her many die-hard fans saw that Yaya was streaming, they saw the obvious outdoor setting behind her, they saw the "revealing" spaghetti-strap top she had specially changed into, and they heard the magnetic male voice chiming in from time to time. It truly broke their hearts.

At this very moment, certain X-rated, explosive scenes even began to play out in their minds. In those scenes, their fragrant and soft goddess Yaya looked as "miserable" as could be.

They were devastated!

Utterly devastated!

Yaya naturally noticed the comments scrolling by. She felt a little awkward, but for now, she could only pretend she didn’t see them.

"It’s connected!"

Suddenly, Yaya’s expression lit up.

The moment she spoke, she and Mao Mao were successfully connected.

Mao Mao was also a female streamer. Her face was very pretty, a standard oval shape with almond-shaped eyes, giving her a youthful, almost childlike appearance. Her ponytail gave her a neat and capable look.

"A PK battle?"

"Prince Heng is in your stream?"

After connecting, Mao Mao got straight to the point.

"Yes."

Yaya forced herself to remain calm. "Want to battle?"

The thought of over forty thousand people in her opponent’s stream compared to the mere few hundred in her own made her feel inexplicably nervous, even with Gu Heng beside her.

"Prince Heng’s great name... I’ve heard many people mention it just now."

Mao Mao sat up a little straighter, a hint of fighting spirit stirring in her eyes. "How do you want to play? What are the stakes?"

Faced with Mao Mao’s question, Yaya instinctively turned to look at Gu Heng.

"Whatever."

Gu Heng replied casually.

He had enough girls for the night. From now on, he just planned to go all out and complete the [Legend] challenge mission as quickly as possible.

"Umm..."

"Then whoever loses has to change their name."

Yaya thought for a moment and proposed a wager. "For example, if you lose, you have to add parentheses after your name with ’Benefactor Prince Heng’ inside, and you can’t change it for seven days. Sound good?"

"Such high stakes?"

Mao Mao raised an eyebrow. She paused after saying this, likely looking at the feedback from the high-level supporters in her own stream.

About five seconds later, she nodded. "If you want to bet, then let’s bet."

"Five minutes, no limit. How about it?"

Mao Mao was very direct, asking Yaya.

"Deal!"

Yaya nodded firmly.

Once they both confirmed, the five-minute countdown began...
