Chapter 1270
1270 Revealing All Ugliness
Lucas sneered. “A hundred bucks? If I remember correctly, didn’t you just say you’re giving me all the tips and donations you get in your stream today?”
Chace rolled his eyes in disdain. “Lucas Gray, what the hell are you dreaming about? I make at least ten thousand dollars per stream, and I will get even more today. Why should I give it to you? I was just saying it to get more views. You just need to play along and cooperate with me. Don’t have any delusional thoughts about things that you shouldn’t. Do you understand?
“If you cooperate well, I can give you a couple hundred bucks as remuneration! This is enough to last you a month!”
Lucas had long known that Chace was just trying to get more views and money by saying that he would give Lucas all the tips and donations he received. But after hearing it straight from Chace’s mouth, he still felt disgusted.
!!
“Get lost. I won’t cooperate with you.” Lucas looked at Chace like he was an idiot and then turned around to leave.
“Stop! You… Fine, I’ll give you another two hundred bucks. Four hundred should be enough for you, right? You’re getting so much money just to accept a free meal from me and say a few words. Don’t be pretentious! If you’re thrifty, four hundred dollars is enough to get you around a thousand packets of instant noodles. This is enough to last you a few months! Don’t be greedy!”
Chace gritted his teeth, took out 400 dollars in cash from his wallet, and deliberately waved in front of Lucas.
Lucas snorted with laughter, not wanting to bother with Chace, this babbling idiot.
Chace was so furious that he wished he could beat the living daylights out of Lucas.
If it wasn’t because his stream was still broadcasting, and he didn’t want to create a commotion here, he would have long lost his temper and beat Lucas up.
“Damn it. Lucas Gray, are you going to cooperate with me or not? To be honest, I’ve been a streamer for years, and I’m signed with a management agency. If you really piss me off, I can call some muscle over to beat you to death right now. Do you hear me?” Chace threatened through gritted teeth. But he was afraid of being overheard, so he kept this voice low and moved closer to Lucas.
Lucas looked at Chace and suddenly smiled strangely. “Okay, I’ll help you out just this once.”
Hearing this, Chace finally smiled with satisfaction and shoved the stack of bills into Lucas’s hand. Then he restrained his domineering stance and smiled hypocritically.
He gestured at the young woman. She thought that he had already convinced Lucas and immediately turned the camera toward the two of them.
“My dear viewers, I’m sorry for making you wait. My former classmate is too shy about being on camera, and it took me a long time to convince him to join our stream!
“Lucas, the viewers of my stream are all very nice and generous. Come say hi to them!”
The young woman turned the camera to Lucas’s face and zoomed in on it.
Lucas looked into the camera. “I have something to tell everyone. Actually, I’m not Chace’s former classmate or a homeless man. Just now, he gave me four hundred dollars to play along with his act and fool you guys into giving him more subscriptions, tips, and donations.
Lucas took out the 400 dollars from his pocket and waved it in front of the camera. “Look, this is what he paid me. There are lots of scammers on the internet these days, and many like using people’s sympathy to make money. I hope you can keep a discerning eye and not be deceived by malicious crooks and let your good intentions go to waste.”
Chace was completely dumbfounded.
He never expected Lucas to expose the truth during the stream!
Due to his extreme shock, he didn’t react until after Lucas finished speaking and couldn’t stop him in time.
After Lucas finished speaking, Chace felt his blood surge straight from his feet to his head, causing his eyes to turn red.
“F*ck you! Lucas Gray, you bastard, how dare you mess with me?” He raised his fist and swung it straight at Lucas’s face.
He wanted to kill Lucas!
How could Lucas possibly let someone like Chace hit him?
He simply leaned sideways slightly and easily dodged the punch.
Instead, Chace missed and staggered, almost falling onto the ground. After regaining balance, he looked at Lucas with burning eyes.
“Chace, are you mad because I exposed you? But I was just telling the truth. Didn’t you say those words yourself?” Lucas said with a faint smile.
Chace was about to blow his top. “Damn it! So what if I said it? I was kind enough to offer you a free meal and give you some money, you loser. But I didn’t think you’d be so ignorant!
“Who do you think you are? As long as I shout that I’ll give those beggars over there some money, do you believe they’ll come running over to beg to play along with my act? You’re so ignorant that you actually dared to bite the hand feeding you!
“Like I said earlier, if you dare to provoke me, I will immediately call some people over. Even if they can’t kill you, they can still beat you into a cripple and make sure you become a beggar that can only kneel on the ground for the rest of your life!”
Lucas feigned being terrified. “It-it turns out you’re such a person! You’re just a streamer. How could you have made so much money and gained so much influence?”
Seeing Lucas’s terrified expression, Chace said smugly, “Hah, how can a loser like you understand what I’m capable of now? Let me tell you, I’m not an ordinary streamer but a super famous one with more than four million followers!
“What’s the most lucrative job these days? Making money off of fools! Those idiot fans rush to give me money as long as I say some nice things and thank them.
“There are even some stupid fans who are so poor that they can barely afford to eat, but they still foolishly flock to give me money. I make more than ten thousand dollars each stream. In just one year, I’ve already managed to buy a house and a car in New York City. I have everything now!
“A penniless loser like you will never be able to reach this level!”
Lucas gritted his teeth. “You… How dare you scold your fans like that? Aren’t you afraid they’ll start hating you and stop giving you money?”
Chace said disdainfully, “They won’t know what I’ve said about them. Do you have any evidence? Like I said, I’ll definitely kill you today. I’ll find people to cripple you right now!”
Lucas suddenly stopped looking flustered and smiled peculiarly. “Is that so? You’d better see the reactions in your stream chat before saying anything else!”
He pointed at the young woman still standing at the side and holding a phone.
Chace glanced at her. His expression changed drastically as he hollered, “F*ck! You didn’t f*cking turn off the stream?”
