"Stan Harrison, let's break up!" A girl with black hair said with her arms over her chest, her face full of disdain, her gaze cold, as if the guy in front of her were nothing but a stranger.
Stan Harrison's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly grabbed Lily's hand and asked, "What's wrong? Did I do something wrong? Why do you want to break up?"
"If I did something wrong, tell me, and I can change."
Lily was Stan Harrison's goddess. He had chased her for three full years, acting as a simp by her side for three years. He had been blinded by love, or maybe infatuation, the thing is even he didn't know that his action which he thinks is him being nice to her as a boyfriend was simply him simping over her.
He had only managed to win her over a week ago, so Lily's sudden demand for a breakup caught Stan Harrison off guard.
"I only agreed to be your girlfriend because I had a fight with Leo and wanted to use you as a shield. Now that I've reconciled with Leo, don't appear near me again. I'm worried Leo might misunderstand." Lily said in a cold voice.
In truth, she only used Stan Harrison as a tool and never truly liked him. The only reason she agreed to be his girlfriend was to use him to deliberately provoke Leo after their fight.
Stan said agitatedly, "Leo is just a scumbag! He's dated so many girls. He only wants to play with you!"
"Shut up! Don't insult my boyfriend. You aren't even worth a finger of his! You're just a loser. Do you know how embarrassing it was to be with you? I couldn't even hold my head up in front of my best friends. Get lost!"
With that, Lily Xavier turned and got into the Mercedes-Benz parked in the distance, leaving.
'They never like the good ones, if after all I've done for her, she can still dump me so easily, I guess we were never meant to stay together...' Stan sighed, but still he clenched his fists tightly, feeling incredibly unwilling to accept this.
Three years. Three whole years.
Stan Harrison had acted as a simp by Lily's side for three years. If Lily said she was hungry, no matter what Stan was doing, he would squeeze out the time to deliver food to her.
He had given everything for Lily, even preferring to go hungry himself just to save money to buy her bags, only to be met with heartless ridicule in return.
"Another loser got dumped?"
"Why date if you don't have money? Getting dumped serves him right."
"Isn't that the simp Stan? I heard he scrimped and saved, delivering food on Sundays to make money, saving up for a whole year just to buy Lily Xavier a designer bag. What a joke."
"Stan chased Lily Xavier for three whole years, yet Leo Xiong took her down in just three days."
"As expected. Poor people don't deserve to date."
The onlookers around them all cast disdainful looks at Stan, it was really embarrassing. Only now did it dawn on stan how much of a simp he was acting just because he wanted to bag Lily
Stan returned to the dormitory in low spirits, gritting his teeth as he coldly snorted, "I, Stan Harrison, will never be a simp again in this life. From now on, I will stand tall and live with dignity."
Summing up everything that happened over these three years, there was one lesson learned.
A simp ends up with nothing. He had already come to terms with the fact that he's a simp. At this point he swore inwardly that he won't help anyone unless there's a worthy benefit in store for him.
It might take long, but after realising how much he had lost, he decided this was the best time to focus on himself.
[Ding!]
[Double Rebate System activated. Loading... 10%... 40%... 70%... 100%.]
[Double Rebate System loaded successfully.]
This was a bit sudden, Stan being knowledgeable about such stuff was actually very shocked... It took him a few seconds to come in terms with the fact that he just randomly awakened a system...
'Is this... a cheat code?'
Stan Harrison was pleasantly surprised. He had read web novels, so he knew a little bit about systems.
He never expected such a stroke of luck to fall on him.
"What is a double rebate?" Stan Harrison asked, puzzled.
[The host can bind with women with a beauty score of 8.5 or higher and make them the target of consumption. Spending money on the bound target will grant a double rebate.]
[50 favorability points grant a double rebate, over 50 favorability points grant a 5x rebate, and over 100 favorability points grant a 10x rebate.]
"Really? A double rebate?"
"If I spend 100 yuan, doesn't that mean I get 200 back?"
Stan Harrison was excited and wanted to test if what the system said was true.
Stan Harrison wandered around the campus, but he couldn't find any beauties with a beauty score of 8.5. Most of them were only a 7 or 7.5.
Over thirty minutes passed, and he hadn't found a single beauty with a score of 8.5.
He figured the sun was too harsh, and the beauties didn't want to come out.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit Stan Harrison.
"Can I bind with a beauty with a score of 8 or higher who is a streamer as a consumption target?" Stan asked the system
While it pained him that he has to utilise girls since he planned to focus on himself, it'd not only be a waste but it'll also be outrightly dumb if he doesn't utilise this cheat of his.
Anyways the system replied, it's voice echoing in Stan's mind...
[You can bind consumption targets. Note: You can only bind two women per day.]
Stan Harrison opened Streamflick Live Stream app.
He entered the beauty section to start picking a woman. Although the beauties in the beauty section were all very pretty, they all used beauty filters. Most were 7.8, and he couldn't find anyone with a score of 8.5.
Stan Harrison browsed around casually and saw Maya Zimmerman streaming.
Maya Zimmerman was the second-ranked campus belle at Peak University, and her beauty was even beyond Lily Xavier's.
Although Maya Zimmerman was very beautiful and had been streaming for a long time, she lacked resources and connections, so her stream only had a popularity of 100,000.
"Maya Zimmerman: Beauty score 8.8. Can bind as a consumption target. Bind?"
"Bind."
[Binding successful. Reward: 10 million.]
[Maya Zimmerman: Favorability 0.]
[Note: Reach 50 favorability to get a 5x consumption rebate. Please work hard to increase favorability, host.]
[Ding!]
Stan Harrison received a text message: "Your China Construction Bank card has received 10,000,000 yuan."
Seeing this astonishing eight-digit figure, Stan Harrison was so excited he almost couldn't catch his breath.
The system was real indeed. He was rich now.
'Calm down, calm down. 10 million isn't my goal. My goal is 10 billion. No why settle for that when I can even go higher, the prospects of this is unimaginable'
People were gifting in Maya's stream, but most were small gifts worth a dime or two.
Some people sent gifts worth a few dollars or tens of dollars, but those were rare.
Stan Harrison started topping up his account. The maximum top-up was 688 each time, so he had to click over and over. Stan Harrison clicked for a full thirty minutes until his hand started to ache.
Maya Zimmerman was doing a PK live stream with a female streamer named Xiao Rourou.
The opponent was an internet celebrity streamer with 600,000 followers, while Maya had less than 100,000. There was a huge disparity between the two.
"Everyone, don't bother gifting. We probably won't win the PK."
Maya had almost given up resistance. The opponent was a streamer with 600,000 followers; Maya Zimmerman couldn't compete.
As expected, after the PK started, Maya Zimmerman was constantly being suppressed by the opponent.
It was time for Stan Harrison to perform. Without a word, he immediately sent a Super Rocket.
[User [A Streak of Green on the Head] gifted the streamer Super Rocket x1.]
A rocket slowly drifted across the screen.
The entire stream was covered in dazzling special effects.
It wasn't just Maya Zimmerman's stream; all users watching the live stream could see the rocket effect.
GrandmaWithAShotgun: [Holy crap... Sending a rocket without a word. Are you not going to live next month?]
EmotionalDamageDealer: [Are you going to be eating dirt next month?]
MainCharacterDelusion: [Genuine question... How much does one has to have to spend this much on a girls life stream?]
The stream, which hadn't been very lively, instantly boiled over. But none of them where prepared for what was coming next..
SUPER ROCKET X10
SUPER ROCKET X20
SUPER ROCKET X30
SirYeetsALot: [Damn. A big shot has arrived.]
Where did this rich guy come from?]
PlotArmorExpired: [Rich guy, do you need a sidekick?]
I'mNotAD*mbass: [Bro 😭 send just 1000$ to my account and I'll genuinely lick your ass every day]
1HPAndCrying: [@I'mNotAD*mbass ew bro eww 🤢]
And the gifts kept coming.
SUPER ROCKET X40
SUPER ROCKET X50
On the Shark Live Stream platform, endless rockets began to drift across the public chat screens of every single stream.
Maya was so excited she didn't know what to do. She had thought she was done for in this PK.
She never expected a big shot to appear in her stream.
Stan Harrison, in front of his phone, was expressionless, gifting frantically like a heartless robot, as if the rockets he was sending were free.
