Modern-day anthology, top's POV
Chen Yu x Lin Xuyan
System 007 is the most embarrassing Moocher System in the System world! So 007 decides to go big! Pull off something huge and make everyone look at it differently!
Hahahahahahaha...
Chen Yu used to be a handsome, innocent college student who streamed games in his spare time to earn a little spending money, until he got bound to a terrifying Moocher System.
Who would have thought that at two in the morning, an uncontrollable, excited laugh would suddenly ring out in his head?
Chen Yu: ...
007: "Hello! I'm Moocher System No. 007. Starting today, you're my first Host. Host, good fortune is coming your way!"
Chen Yu thinks he's gone crazy. "Am I seeing a ghost, or am I about to die?"
"I'm not a ghost!"
At a distinguished alumni lecture, 007 is making a racket in his head.
"Yes, that's him! Our mission is to mooch off this gloomy, insecure CEO and save him. Get over there, go, go, go..."
How can someone be gloomy and insecure and also a CEO? Chen Yu looks at the tiny scar 007 points out, barely the size of a fingernail. He squeezes 007, who is already a ball, into an even smaller ball and tosses him away.
It's not even a big scar. If he were that rich and capable, he wouldn't feel insecure even if he turned into an ugly monster.
Under 007's threats, Chen Yu has no choice but to try to charm the campus legend, his senior. Looking at the man's stern face and endless list of accomplishments on Baidu Baike, Chen Yu falls silent.
"What makes you think a man on the Forbes rich list would ever be interested in me?"
007 says confidently, "He has nothing but money."
"Isn't that more than enough?"
"I don't care. You're eating this free meal whether you like it or not!"
Armed with a hundred plans made by 007, Chen Yu has no choice but to leave early and come home late every day, hoping to run into the CEO. He barely has time to stream and feels drained every day.
While playing a game with his top supporter, a gentle male voice on the other end asks, "Have you been tired lately?"
Chen Yu has always been honest with this skilled player, his top supporter since high school. "I'm chasing someone, Senior~"
After all, following someone around every day counts as chasing them, doesn't it?
The other person is clearly taken aback. "You're chasing someone? Do you already have someone you like?"
Chen Yu, utterly unbothered, says, "He's amazing, so he definitely wouldn't be interested in me. But don't worry, Senior. I'll always have time to play games with you."
The voice on the other end turns a little low. "Every day?"
"Of course!"
Later, after Chen Yu and Lin Xuyan get together, Chen Yu finds out that Lin Xuyan was the skilled player who had always supported him as his top fan.
Chen Yu buries his face against Lin Xuyan's chest and protests. "Didn't you say you were my fan because of my gaming skills?"
"Mm. I like everything about you." Love spills from those thin lips, and the affection in his eyes can't be hidden or controlled.
Chen Yu: No wonder Lin Xuyan started getting close to me right after I told Senior I was chasing someone. He was afraid I'd get away.
Overconfident 007: Hahaha, I knew the Host I coached could do it! I'm 007, the greatest System in the whole System world!
Chen Yu: ...
The Moocher's must-have handbook: Be elegant in public and great in the kitchen. Be prettier than a male model, with a tiny waist and a big package. Most importantly, make the big shot go crazy for you, without shedding any tears except in bed.
