Then, the countdown in my mind finally stopped—“Congratulations, you’ve met the spending target. Your life is extended by one day.”
I let out a huge sigh of relief. I really didn’t want to go through that suffocating feeling again.
Looking back, the live chat was going crazy:
“Oh my god!!”
“Is it raining gifts?”
“Who is this wealthy user? I’ve never seen them before!”
“Another rich person won over by our streamer.”
“Rich person, we love you!”
The streamer had stopped dancing and was now thanking me on camera.
I didn’t stick around. I closed the app.
I put my phone down and pinched myself hard.
Ouch… it’s really not a dream?
I covered my face with my hands, shaking with relief.
The system spoke up right away, “Host, please don’t cry. Don’t be afraid. As a rescue system, I won’t harm you.”
Seeing that I was still stunned, the system reassured me again.
“Trust me, as long as you complete the spending task, this system will make sure you stay alive!”
I shakily lowered my hands and burst into laughter.
The system went quiet.
I got back to the point and asked, “System, are all the tasks going to be this rushed?”
“Since the situation was urgent, a small target was set for a short-term extension.”
