Tao Tao is a famously spoiled, fussy, beautiful "female" streamer on a certain platform. He looks good and has a fiery temper, and no matter how much money someone spends on him, he treats them all with the same indifference.
That's because Tao Tao has never been short of money.
But Tao Tao's fans say that if you can get his contact information, you'll discover another side of him.
Actually, Tao Tao is pretty nice. He's just tsundere when he says mean things.
That's a lie. The only person who knows the truth is Tao Tao's top donor.
The top donor had been there since Tao Tao first started streaming. With the username "Tranquility Through Detachment" and a calligraphy avatar, he spoke in the chat from the start.
Tranquility Through Detachment: I suggest you find another line of work.
Tao Tao: ? Okay, everyone, some weirdo just showed up. Not even a dog would pay attention to this guy. Kick him out!
Half an hour later, Tranquility Through Detachment returned and showered gifts on Tao Tao, whose stream had no viewers at all.
Tao Tao: Okay, everyone, turns out he's my bread and butter. If even a dog won't pay attention to him, I'll pay attention to him.
Tao Tao, acting cute: Thanks, big brother!
Tranquility Through Detachment: No need to thank me. I want to watch you study a first-grade textbook.
Tao Tao: ? The damned weirdo is pretending to be my bread and butter. Okay, everyone, this time, even if a dog actually shows up, I'm still blocking this Tranquility Through Detachment.
Before Tao Tao could block him, Tranquility Through Detachment quickly sent a few gifts.
Tao Tao's mouse paused over the block button, then clicked into Taobao.
"Okay, everyone, even if no dog shows up, I still have to study. Big brother, which edition should I study?"
Bending for money is nothing to be ashamed of!
Thanks to Tranquility Through Detachment's persistence, Tao Tao stubbornly learned everything taught in primary school.
But just as his streaming career was thriving, his identity as a boy was exposed!
Tao Tao: Okay, everyone, now I'm really done for!

One day, Cheng Jiangchao accidentally clicked into a livestream and saw a tiny kid streaming. Out of kindness, he suggested the kid go back to school and stop doing anything improper.
The next moment, he was kicked out.
Cheng Jiangchao: "..."
Cheng Jiangchao went to the owner of the streaming platform, his friend, and told him to review the stream properly.
His friend glanced at the backend. "He's an adult. He just turned eighteen."
Cheng Jiangchao frowned. Eighteen was still the age to be in school. He wanted to keep trying to talk some sense into the kid, but the moment he entered the stream, Tao Tao quickly kicked him out again.
"..."
With no other options, Cheng Jiangchao could only ask his good friend for help.
Worried Cheng Jiangchao was getting too invested, his friend gently tried to dissuade him, saying streamers only cared about money. If you were a generous big brother with money, they were nice to you; if you had none, they'd turn on you.
Cheng Jiangchao: They only care about money? What's the problem with that?
His friend watched helplessly as Cheng Jiangchao entered Tao Tao's stream, sent him a few gifts, and told him to study.
"Your way of pursuing someone is pretty... unique?"

After Tao Tao's identity was exposed, his good friend cautiously and nervously went to Cheng Jiangchao's villa.
He really hadn't deliberately hidden Tao Tao's identity! He'd only taken a quick look at the time and hadn't noticed!
"Um, I really didn't know he was a boy. If I had, I would've stopped you right away!"
Contrary to what his friend imagined, Cheng Jiangchao wasn't angry. He simply sipped his tea at his leisure.
"?" What was that supposed to mean?
"Um, have you and Tao Tao broken things off?"
Before Cheng Jiangchao could answer after setting down his cup, his friend heard an angry shout from inside the villa.
"Cheng Jiangchao, you sick pervert! You've kept me locked up for three days. I want to get out!"
It was Tao Tao's voice.
His friend looked up and saw the bedroom door being pounded loudly.
Cheng Jiangchao smiled and said, "It's fine. He makes a fuss like this every day. He'll quiet down soon."
His friend: "..."
Oh my god, you scared me!
Little Scene
Tranquility Through Detachment: Read more and think more. Studying is what matters most.
A Little Peach: Get lost. Do you think studying earns me more than I make now?
Half a minute later.
Message deleted.
A Little Peach: Okay, baby, I'll read more~
Tranquility Through Detachment: Give the phone back to Tao Tao. I like him the way he is.
A Little Peach: Are you crazy? Get lost!
Tranquility Through Detachment: Mm, okay.
Tranquility Through Detachment: That's much more like yourself.
1. A little liar who only tricks his husband, a lazy bottom x an old-fashioned, patriarchal top.
2. We do not endorse men pretending to be women to deceive people on livestreams, so the bottom will face consequences. The ending is happy, the top is rich, and the bottom is rich too.
