479: There must be trust between people!

While the two Sisters were excitedly chatting about Chen Xinyi's massive success with her first short drama,

Ye Su, as the investor, also opened the backend provided by Guang Yu Theater to check the data after the short drama went live.

"The data is this good!"

Within an hour of going live, the view count had already exceeded one million. With the combined revenue from advertisements, paid users, and livestream room coupons, it was on the verge of breaking 100,000 yuan, which surprised Ye Su a little.

In the current short drama market, there are many that lose money and few that make a profit.

The short drama starring Chen Xinyi was already in the hit category to have such earnings.

Brother System's recommendation was indeed correct. With these results, Chen Xinyi could already barely make it into the ranks of first-line short drama actresses.

She only needed one or two more hit short dramas where she was the lead, and she would be able to establish a firm foothold among first-line short drama actresses.

Afterwards, she could use short dramas as a stepping stone to let Chen Xinyi enter the entertainment industry.

In terms of looks and figure, Chen Xinyi didn't lose to those female celebrities. In fact, without makeup artists, many female celebrities weren't even as good as Chen Xinyi.

Ye Su didn't believe that if he invested enough resources in the future, he wouldn't be able to turn Chen Xinyi into a top-tier celebrity as well.

Of course, Ye Su wasn't counting on Chen Xinyi entering the entertainment industry and becoming a top-tier celebrity to help him make money.

It was just that Chen Xinyi didn't want to live the nine-to-five worker life anymore, and she didn't want to be idle all day, relying on Ye Su to support her for the rest of her life.

Especially after Ye Su got together with Yan Ran, spurred on by Yan Ran, Chen Xinyi also wanted to have a career of her own so that she could at least help Ye Su a little in the future.

Ye Su had never been one to interfere with other people's ideas. Since Chen Xinyi wanted to develop in this direction, he would naturally provide her with support within the scope of his capabilities.

Moreover, Chen Xinyi was now carrying the banner of driving traffic for the self-media company.

The higher her traffic on the internet, the more she could help drive traffic for other streamers in the company, building up the self-media company as quickly as possible. This was also a good thing for Ye Su.

"Look!"

Just as Ye Su was thinking about the future development of Chen Xinyi and the self-media company, Chen Xinyi was already holding her phone and waving it in front of him:

"My follower count has finally hit 300,000, and it's still rising!"

Ye Su took a look and found that Chen Xinyi's self-media account did indeed reach 300,000 followers. This was clearly the traffic brought to her after the short drama went live.

"How about that, am I amazing!"

Chen Xinyi looked like a child seeking praise, her big, watery eyes staring straight at Ye Su.

"Amazing, amazing, amazing—"

[Ding!]

Just as Ye Su was responding to Chen Xinyi, half-perfunctory and half-praising, the system interface popped up in front of Ye Su without any warning.

[Detected that the Host's self-media company has its first streamer to reach 300,000 followers. Successfully completed [Hidden Achievement - A Talent Pool 1.0]!]

[Hidden Achievement Reward: 1 million in cash, 10 points of Health, 1 storage space!]

"There are hidden achievement rewards even when the company's streamers gain followers?!"

After reading the popped-up system notification, Ye Su's eyes lit up with joy.

Although he had completed the [hidden mission - insomnia terminator] last night after investing 15 million in Yu Mingjun yesterday afternoon, Ye Su only had a little over 19 million in cash left on him now.

Now with this 1 million cash reward, his savings finally returned to the 20 million bracket.

Moreover, this [Hidden Achievement - A Talent Pool] was only version 1.0.

This meant that as the self-media company developed further and there were more and more major streamers, subsequent hidden achievements would be triggered, allowing him to continuously receive system rewards.

For this reason alone, Ye Su had no choice but to continue developing the self-media company.

"Hee hee—"

Chen Xinyi was used to Ye Su's nature. Seeing that he had no further reaction after a perfunctory remark, she stopped bothering with him and continued sharing her joy with Yan Ran.

When the waiters started serving the dishes, the three of them treated the meal as a celebration and began to eat happily.

By the time they finished eating and returned to the Apartment Complex, it was already past eight in the evening.

Taking advantage of Chen Xinyi and Yan Ran going to take a shower first, Ye Su picked an empty room, went inside, locked the door, and then took out the [Lucky Dice] from the system space.

[Host's total intelligence earnings for today: 592,021 yuan!]

With an additional income from the short drama profit-sharing, Ye Su's total intelligence earnings for today were tens of thousands higher than yesterday.

Once again, following the last digit of his earnings, he guessed "one" and then threw the dice onto the floor.

Roll, roll—

The dice rolled for dozens of turns before finally stopping on [5].

"You've got to be kidding me, it's 5 again..."

Seeing that the rolled number was the same as last night, Ye Su could only speechlessly put the dice back into the system space and take out the [Book of Wealth].

With a casual flip, today's [A House of Gold Can Be Found in Books] skill was triggered, and two small pieces of gold appeared out of thin air on the page.

"This is still better; it's a guaranteed profit."

With a quick swipe, the [Book of Wealth] and the small gold pieces were put back into the system space by Ye Su.

[storage space two: Book of Wealth (one), gold (580 grams)]

"It's already accumulated to 580 grams of gold."

Seeing that he had saved over a catty of gold, Ye Su pondered whether he should take this gold to the [System Gold Shop] to have a set of jewelry made for Su Wan.

"Forget it." After thinking about it, Ye Su dismissed the idea:

"I've already prepared a Rolex watch and a jade bracelet; this gift is enough. As for jewelry, I'll wait until I'm better off financially next time."

The two sets of high-end luxury jewelry he gave to Chen Xinyi and Yan Ran last time were worth over 7 million each.

Although it was charged to the [Love Exclusive Fund].

But Ye Su felt that even if he had to pay out of his own pocket, the jewelry he gave to his mom couldn't be worse than what he gave to Chen Xinyi and the other one.

Instead of just taking some gold and having some random jewelry made now, it would be better to wait until he had saved a few hundred million in cash later, and then have a nice set of jewelry made for his mom.

As for his Sister Ye Ruo, Ye Su would just have to reluctantly prepare a set for her at that time, considering it as her dowry.

After giving up on the idea of having a gold jewelry set made for Su Wan, Ye Su closed the system and chose a random bathroom, intending to go in and take a shower.

But when Ye Su turned the doorknob, he found that the bathroom door was locked from the inside, preventing him from opening it.

"Hey!" This situation made Ye Su indignant: "What's the meaning of this? Locking the door while showering? Are you even guarding against a gentleman like me!"

Unwilling to give up, Ye Su went to the bathroom in the master bedroom, trying to take a "satisfying shower."

But the result was exactly the same; the door to this bathroom was also locked from the inside by someone.

"Damn it!" Ye Su was on the verge of tears: "Can't there be a little more trust between people!"

He would have to fix the door himself if he broke it, so Ye Su was helpless. He could only obediently return to the living room and sulk on the sofa.
