OFR – Chapter 34 The rich man enters the scene.

A little star’s agreement to co-stream was, in Obsession’s eyes, equivalent to accepting the invitation.

As soon as the co-stream began, Obsession flashed a confident smile at the camera, thinking he looked suave and gentlemanly. He smiled and said, “Hello, a little star. My name is Obsession, and I sincerely invite you to join me for the New Year’s event.”

However, before Obsession could finish, Wang Yuwei interrupted him with something unexpected, freezing the confident, gentlemanly smile on his face.

“Obsession, I know you’re a big streamer, and it’s not that I don’t accept your invitation; I just feel unworthy. My fans have been with me for a long time, and I can’t bear to leave them. I also have an online boyfriend. I can’t join you for the New Year’s event because I need to be with them. So, I’m really sorry.”

Rejected!

No matter how politely she phrased it, it was still a rejection!

A little star, a small-time streamer with barely a few hundred viewers and less than a thousand fans, had just rejected Obsession’s invitation!

“What the hell did I just hear?”

“She refused? 666!”

“Who do you think you are to refuse? Obsession is trying to help you out! Being with Obsession is way better than hanging around a bunch of trash fans who won’t even send gifts!”

“Hmph, you cheap little thing. My god, Obsession is being kind to help you out, and you dare not appreciate it? Do we need to egg your stream so you can experience what zero popularity feels like?”

“A little star, just for what you said, I’ll be a fan for life!”

“Exactly! Even at a time like this, she’s thinking about staying with us. I’m honestly so glad to have found a streamer like you!”

“She said she can’t bear to leave us. Damn, I’m actually a little touched, almost brought to tears.”

“Cold Tycoon made the right choice!”

Though most of the comments were from Obsession’s fans, a few came from Wang Yuwei’s fans, but they were quickly drowned out by the overwhelming flood of messages from the opposing side.

At this point, Obsession had recovered, but he was frowning.

He hadn’t expected this small-time streamer to reject him.

“Are you sure you really want to refuse my invitation?” Obsession asked, his tone laced with displeasure.

After all, a little star had rejected him in front of his tens of thousands of fans. It was embarrassing for him.

“Yes, I really can’t accept. I’m truly sorry, Obsession,” Wang Yuwei said, noticing his displeasure but still refusing because she couldn’t abandon her fans.

“Heh, fine. Very well.”

Obsession’s expression turned cold. He had intended to help this small-time streamer, but not only did she fail to appreciate it, she rejected him twice in public.

Smiling coldly, he said, “Trust me, you’ll definitely regret this decision today.”

As soon as Obsession said this, his fans flooded the chat in support.

“You want to stick with these trash fans? Fine, but you’ll never know what you missed out on today!”

“Where obsession goes, nothing grows!”

“Should we egg her stream?”

“Forget eggs, let’s pool together for a Dream Castle brick so this small-time streamer knows what regret feels like!”

“Obsession is right. This streamer will definitely regret her decision today!”

“Of course she’ll regret it so much she’ll be crying her eyes out. She just passed up an opportunity that small-time streamers beg for!”

“Hmph, this cheap little thing doesn’t know how to appreciate it. When she’s on her knees begging Obsession, he won’t even look her way!”

The stream chat was flooded with ridicule for A Little Star’s “stupidity and ignorance” because of Obsession’s remark. Her fans tried to defend her, but their comments were quickly drowned out.

Sitting in front of her screen, Wang Yuwei pursed her lips tightly in frustration.

She hadn’t expected that even after sincerely apologizing, she would still offend Obsession.

Seeing her stream filled with comments insulting her, she decided to end the stream early. It was late, and Cold Tycoon probably wouldn’t show up anyway.

But just as she was about to say goodbye to her few remaining fans, ten consecutive gift notifications exploded in the stream.

Wang Yuwei’s mouth fell open in shock as she stared at the notifications in disbelief.

“User ‘Cold Tycoon’ has gifted A Little Star a Dream Castle. Everyone, come find treasure in the Dream Castle!”

“User ‘Cold Tycoon’ has gifted A Little Star a Dream Castle. Everyone, come find treasure in the Dream Castle!”

“User ‘Cold Tycoon’ has gifted A Little Star a Dream Castle. Everyone, come find treasure in the Dream Castle!”

…

Ten Dream Castles in total!

The barrage of Dream Castles stunned even the Obsession fans who had been ridiculing her.

It wasn’t that they hadn’t seen Dream Castles before, but seeing someone send ten in one go was an entirely different level of wealth!

The Huajiao platform didn’t have as many wealthy users as the bigger streaming platforms. Even the rich users rarely sent gifts worth thousands all at once. And yet, here were ten Dream Castles, worth over fifty thousand yuan!

Even Obsession himself was taken aback, as those ten Dream Castles were worth almost half a month’s worth of his own gift earnings.

The ten Dream Castles cleared the chat, and immediately following them was a single message.

Cold Tycoon @Obsession: “You said A little star will regret this? Go on, tell me how.”

At that moment, the previously unnoticed ID, “Cold Tycoon,” was now glaringly prominent, illuminated by the ten Dream Castles.

“Cold Tycoon, so mighty!”

“Cold Tycoon, you finally showed up! If you’d been any later, your online girlfriend would’ve been bullied to death!”

“Cold Tycoon is as bossy as ever! Ten Dream Castles to shut it down—who dares to challenge?”

“Cold Tycoon is unbeatable!”

“Anyone still calling Cold Tycoon trash? If you’re not convinced, try sending ten Dream Castles yourself!”

Seeing Cold Tycoon’s powerful entrance, A Little Star’s fans finally felt vindicated!
