Chapter 023：Honey

"Sorry, Olivia! I'm going to check out Elvira's livestream for a bit!"

"Me too, it's so lively over there! Haha!"

"I'm not going to see Elvira; I just want to see how many Lions Smoking President can send. I'm losing my mind!"

"You traitors, wait for me!"

Seeing another large group of people leave the livestream.

Olivia was on the verge of tears!

Smoking President is truly wealthy.

Under the massive impact of more than 10,000 Lions, the traffic he generated was unimaginable.

People are naturally curious.

Everyone loves a spectacle.

If you send dozens or even hundreds of Lions, maybe it won't make much of a difference!

Because this has become commonplace.

But sending over 10,000 Lions at once?

Never happened before!

Unprecedented!

Unmatched in history!

Since the establishment of all livestream platforms, no one has ever spent so much money at once.

But today, "A handsome guy smoking when lonely" did it.

This sudden, peerless wealthy man has become the leader among the rich in just a few days.

He not only sends gifts on Itube but also on Sik Sok.

Each time, he spends extravagantly.

And each time, richer than the last.

In just three attempts, he has spent almost fifty million dollars???

With fifty million dollars in gifts, you could become a shareholder in these livestream platforms!

Seeing the popularity of the livestream room decreasing.

Olivia finally made up her mind to apologize to Smoking President.

She wanted to explain why she didn't accept the invitation during the livestream earlier.

If she offended such a wealthy man, she wouldn't have a future in this industry!

Picking up her phone, she opened WhatsApp chat and began editing a message.

"Smoking President, I'm sorry for today. There were a lot of people in the livestream room earlier, so it was inconvenient to answer some questions. Actually, I have time these days and was planning to travel to Chica. Would you be available to be a guide?"

After editing the message, Olivia sent it immediately.

At this time, Arthur was still sending Lions.

After tapping the screen for two hours, his hand was really sore.

Fortunately, his body had been strengthened; otherwise, he would have been unable to bear it.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, a message popped up on WhatsApp.

It was from Olivia.

Arthur opened it and was a bit stunned!

What does she mean?

Earlier, she refused to meet for dinner, and now she suddenly has time to fly from Old York to Chica for a tour?

This change in attitude was quite unexpected!

Could it be that she finally understood my 'subtext'? It must be!

Arthur nodded with a smile.

"Forget it, I won't send anymore today. Sending Lions all the time is too tiring, and my phone is almost out of battery!"

"This is the latest iPhone, why is the battery so low!"

After Arthur stopped sending Lions.

It took five minutes.

Sik Sok platform netizens finally reacted.

"Finally over, finally over!"

"Twelve thousand seven hundred Lions, my goodness, a total of twelve thousand seven hundred Lions!"

"Welcome, Dragon King!"

"Oh, Dragon King, you're finally back. Did you know someone stole your top spot? You're not number one anymore!"

"Before knowing Smoking President, I thought sending a hundred Lions made you wealthy. After knowing Smoking President, I feel embarrassed to brag without sending a thousand Lions!"

Elvira's livestream room is still extraordinarily lively.

But Arthur had quietly left!

Unconsciously.

Morning classes were over.

Arthur only then realized he had been sending Lions all morning?

He hadn't paid much attention to the lecture.

University lecturers basically don't control students.

If you genuinely want to study and humbly ask for advice, they will naturally teach you.

If you want to fall into decline, no teacher will urge you to study.

All self-aware!

Basically, students sitting in the front row are more interested in learning and preparing to continue their studies.

Students sitting in the back row intend to get a degree, as long as they don't fail the exam.

The University of Chica is an ordinary university.

But not top-tier.

Compared to top universities like Harvard, Stanford, Cambridge, and Oxford, it's a step down.

Speaking of which, Arthur's grades in high school were not good, barely above average.

With these grades, he couldn't have come to the University of Chica.

But one day, when he learned that Honey, the girl he had secretly admired for three years, was preparing to take the Harvard exam, he suddenly started studying hard!

There are some youth-themed movies where the male lead's grades were poor throughout high school, but in the last three months, in order to chase the goddess, he studied desperately, and during the college entrance examination, he suddenly rushed to the top ten in the whole school.

The story sounds very inspirational.

But such plots are actually not common in reality.

Arthur is a typical failed case.

He thought he could succeed.

In the last three months before the college entrance examination, he studied hard and could go to the same university as Honey!

Go to Harvard University together.

Even if he couldn't be Honey's boyfriend, as long as he could quietly pay attention to her in the same school, Arthur felt satisfied!

He admits that the three-month sprint before the college entrance examination did have some effect, and his academic performance improved significantly.

But it was still far from the score line of Harvard University.

So.

He failed.

Honey eventually succeeded in getting into Harvard University, one of the top five universities in the world.

While Arthur ultimately only went to the University of Chica.

Although it's the same school, the difference is actually quite large.

After entering university, in order to forget Honey, he chose to pursue another girl.

That's Una.

At first, he just wanted to forget someone else, but who knew he'd fall deeper and deeper, ending up as Una's backup.

Did he really fall in love with Una and completely forget Honey?

Arthur doesn't think so.

After three years of effort, he didn't really devote himself wholeheartedly to Una. He just didn't want to give up because he was moved!

Suddenly remembered the warm figure of the girl like a spring day.

Arthur realized that after so many years, he had never forgotten her.

Three years of high school.

Because of secretly admiring Honey, Arthur paid attention to her every day.

After school, he secretly followed her home, then went home alone, often ambushed on the road she passed just to see her smile slightly, accidentally saw someone fight over her name carved on the table!

Deliberately borrow her book just to look at her and say a word, stare blankly at her during class.

Honey's name almost occupied Arthur's entire youth!

She is too outstanding!

So outstanding that Arthur didn't dare to confess his love.

Since entering the University of Chica, he knew that his and Honey's lives would be parallel from then on, without any intersection.
