Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: The Big Spender in the Livestream Room

A supercar—one hundred dollars.["You've got some nerve telling me to be polite? You must be Miles, and that Grayson—just the three of you big losers."]The user "PranksterKingpin" sounded arrogant. But arrogance can be backed by capital.[PranksterKingpin sent a supercar!][PranksterKingpin sent a supercar!][PranksterKingpin sent a supercar!][PranksterKingpin sent a supercar!]Five in a row—five hundred dollars!

"Brother PranksterKingpin, calm down—who are you?"Lexi cooed when she saw the big spender step up.

[I'm Tanner Caldwell.]"PranksterKingpin" revealed himself in chat.

"I knew it was him," Tyler snorted.Tanner Caldwell was a second‑generation rich kid, wealthy and brazen—a local figure who always hung out with all kinds of people.

"Ah, it's you! Thank you so much, Brother Tanner Caldwell—mwah!"Lexi exclaimed happily. "Thanks for all the supercars, Brother Tanner!"

"Damn—she said just 'thanks' to us, but calls this guy 'brother'—hell," Tyler muttered sourly. The warm glow he'd felt when Lexi thanked him just moments ago had entirely vanished.

"That's normal," Miles comforted him. "If you sent fifty thousand dollars in gifts, she'd call you her husband."

"What's that? Tyler, aren't you a loser? If you've got the guts, out‑gift him—come on, you three losers in the dorm, even drag Grayson in—let's see you try!" PranksterKingpin egged them on.

[PranksterKingpin sent a rocket!][PranksterKingpin sent a rocket!][PranksterKingpin sent a rocket!][PranksterKingpin sent a rocket!][PranksterKingpin sent a rocket!]

Swipe, swipe, swipe—five rockets more! On this platform, a rocket costs two hundred dollars each—twice as expensive as a supercar.

"Boss Tanner, you're amazing—thank you so much, Boss Tanner!"Lexi was overjoyed, immediately striking every coquettish pose she could.

[Boss Tanner is the best!][Yeah, Tanner is the real deal—a genuine second‑generation rich. Not like us: if we spent that much, we'd be skipping breakfast sandwiches for days.]

Most viewers in the room were classmates, and they now showered Tanner with flattery.

[Tanner the Great—where are you?] someone asked, playing along.

[I'm at the Lamborghini Lounge, hanging out with a few good bros from the scene. You all have to come sometime—so many models here, haha.]

Every line dripped with show‑off swagger.

[System Notice: PranksterKingpin has been promoted to room moderator.]

"Boss Tanner, I've made you a moderator—please help me run this room," Lexi said with a spring‑fresh smile.

"Sure." Tanner replied. "I'll send gifts again whenever I can. It's just money—don't be like some people who send a scarf and broadcast their name. Losers trying to woo goddesses—give me a break!"

"Damn, he's talking about me," Tyler thought, cheeks hot."Yeah—gets a little cash and acts so big!" Miles cursed.

They'd complain all they wanted, but watching Tanner and Lexi flirt, with everyone else praising him below, Tyler and Miles could only stew in jealous rage.

[silentG sent a yacht!] the system suddenly announced.

"Holy shit—someone sent a yacht! A thousand dollars each! This is nuts!" Tyler gaped at his screen."No way—silentG? Is that even in our class? Nobody is richer than Tanner!" Miles shouted.

The chat exploded:[Who's silentG?][Insane—yachts! Rich guy, adopt me!][Is he from our class? A hidden tycoon!][Maybe Lexi's boyfriend!][No way—she doesn't have a boyfriend!]…

Everyone speculated wildly about silentG. Even Lexi looked stunned—she'd forgotten to say her thanks. Because she simply couldn't believe it: yachts, a thousand dollars each!

"Thank you—thank you, Brother silentG…thank you so much…"Lexi struggled to speak, wanting to make the best impression on this silentG, her words came out awkwardly.

[silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!][silentG sent a yacht!]

The system went wild—nine yachts in a row, ten thousand dollars!

"Holy crap!" Miles and Tyler jumped up."Grayson, are you watching Big‑Boobed Beauty's stream? Someone's sent ten yachts—worth ten thousand dollars! Oh my God!"

Down the hallway, other dorm rooms also erupted—these dorms housed most of their class.

The livestream room crazed further:[Ten grand—this is insane!][I'm losing it!][silentG, are you in our class? Please say yes—I want to roll with you!][No way—must be Lexi's close friend, a really unique bond to spend this much.]

"Brother silentG, thank you—thank you so much! I want to hug you!"Lexi's eyes shone with the light of new admiration. She leaned toward the camera like a kitten, as if she longed to curl up into silentG's arms.

[Lexi, tell us—who is silentG?][Yeah—spill it!]

"I—I don't know, Brother silentG. Are you someone I know? Please tell me, I'll treat you to dinner." Lexi was equally curious.

[No need—it's just a small gift.] silentG finally spoke.[I only wanted to show that money isn't everything—there's always someone richer. Remember this: don't look down on someone just because they're poor today. Never underestimate anyone.]

"Well said!" Miles and Tyler slapped their thighs in excitement.

"silentG is the real second‑generation rich—look at his character! He's league‑one, not some nouveau riche like Tanner." Miles sighed."Yeah—silentG is my idol," Tyler said, thrilled.

silentG's message had rescued the atmosphere—indeed, Tanner Caldwell was nothing compared to silentG casually dropping ten thousand dollars, then preaching humility: "Don't sneer at poor youth." Meanwhile, Tanner bragged over a thousand‑dollar gift.

The chat overflowed:[silentG speaks so well!][Absolutely—silentG must be from an old money family.][You can tell he's a man of depth.]

Meanwhile, Tanner fell silent.

"Lexi, what's happening? I heard someone's sending you gifts?"

On the live video, a second girl appeared—also very pretty, but a different look from Lexi's cute charm. This girl had a car‑model vibe: sexy, with a hint of provocative flair.

"Holy shit—Sienna that bitch!" Miles spat as soon as he recognized her.

Yes—this was Sienna, Grayson's ex. Sienna and Lexi were dormmates. At first she'd paid no attention to Lexi's stream; after all, streaming was popular now. But when she heard Lexi babbling thanks to "silentG brother," curiosity drew her close.

"Wow—ten yachts? Who is this?" Sienna's face brightened with shock and envy. Ten yachts was ten thousand dollars!

"Where's my silentG brother?" Lexi chimed, hands framing her cheeks in adorable kitten mode.

"Who's silentG? Your friend?" Sienna asked, naturally assuming he must be a real‑world acquaintance to spend so much. After all, this was Lexi's first stream.

"No, I just met him," Lexi answered honestly.

What?! Sienna's mind whirled. To give ten yachts to a stranger—was silentG just a clueless rich boy?

"Brother silentG—are you there?"silentG stayed silent for a long beat.

"I am," he finally replied, tersely.

"I'm so happy you answered!" Sienna clasped her hands to her chest. "Brother silentG, if I started streaming, would you support me too?"

"Jesus, that bitch's crawling to silentG!" Tyler fumed."Good thing Grayson dumped her. She'll lick up to any rich guy—shameless," Miles agreed.

silentG remained silent in chat.

[Do you have a boyfriend?] he suddenly asked.

"Ah?" Sienna froze, then shook her head with an innocent smile. "Brother silentG, I don't have a boyfriend—you're joking, right?"

"Sienna, why lie? Weren't you just with Sebastian after splitting from Grayson?" Lexi, annoyed that Sienna tried to fool silentG, immediately called her out.

Girls were like that—quick to judge each other. True friendship among them was rare.

"Oh, Sebastian and I are just close—we haven't defined anything. And as for Grayson, I dumped that loser ages ago!" Sienna blushed, hurriedly defending herself.

But having been exposed, she looked embarrassed, and handed the mic back to Lexi.

"Brother silentG, are you still here?" Lexi asked sweetly into the camera. "Oops—went offline?"

Meanwhile, in Dorm 306, Grayson tossed aside the iPhone and lay back on his bed, feeling an indescribable emotion stirring inside him.
