The screen split into two.

On one side appeared a face that was almost unnaturally handsome—delicately sculpted features, peach blossom eyes of deep amber, staring through the lens with such intensity it seemed to pierce the boundaries of time and space.

Su Ci froze.
A long-lost familiarity surged in her chest.
She was sure—she’d seen this man before.
Somewhere.
Sometime.
But no matter how she tried, she couldn’t recall his name or identity.

The man looked tense, his expression riddled with urgency.

“Susu, listen to me—just let me explain!”

“It’s a long story, but everything—everything—goes back to that bastard Young Master. He’s the one who misled me, made me misunderstand…”

Misunderstand her appearance.
Her age.
Even… her gender.

I was afraid I wouldn’t find you.
I was afraid I’d miss even a final glimpse.

This wasn’t his world.

Stripped of his former glory, titles, and power, he was no different from any ordinary passerby—hustling just to survive.

So he used the dumbest, most honest method imaginable to search—looking for a needle in a haystack of eight billion.

The ridiculous part? Without any plot armor, even his luck stat felt like it had bottomed out.
He scraped by for over twenty years, and still hadn’t uncovered the faintest trace of her.

Then, by sheer accident, Chu Junling found out that “Young Master” was also looking for her.

The guy even seemed to have more intel—narrowing the search to streamers and internet personalities.

That’s when Chu Junling stepped into the world of livestreaming.

One in eight billion.
That was the odds.
Every streamer who even slightly resembled his “senior,” he’d check them out personally.
But disappointment followed disappointment, one after another.

For a while, Lory was the closest match.

She even had a plump orange cat—

—just like the one he and his senior had once raised together.

But after three days of observation, he realized Lory wasn’t the one.
Turned out the Young Master had deliberately fed him false leads—probably because he was in the entertainment industry.

Maybe it was to sabotage him.
Maybe it was just to drain his wallet.
Either way, the goal was the same: leave him empty-handed, unable to compete when the real her appeared.

Chu Junling knew it was an open trap.

But he couldn’t back down.

He couldn’t risk someone else reuniting with her before he did.

And he wasn’t the only one with that mindset.

The difference?
They were better at hiding it.

Everyone acted like newbies with alternate accounts.

Su Ci listened to the man’s muddled defense—

—and found herself agreeing with what Sheng Yan had said earlier.

There were way too many sweet talkers online.

“So you’re saying… you saw me in a dream, and you’ve been looking for me based on that? And Young Master convinced you Lory was me?”

Chu Junling’s eyes were red as he shook his head—then nodded.

“It wasn’t a dream. It was a parallel world. Everything that happened between us—it was real.”

His lashes lowered, shadowing his murky eyes. He murmured,

“You just don’t remember.”

Su Ci gave a dry laugh.
“Haha… you’re pretty funny, huh…”

So this was it?
She was a stand-in?

A stand-in for someone’s dream girl?

The usually chaotic comment section fell eerily quiet.

Only the mentioned “Young Master” and Sheng Yan chimed in.

[Young Master]: I’m not taking the fall for this. I just gifted streamers as employee perks—how was I supposed to know the Cat Emperor would spiral into full-on fanfic mode? Should be writing novels, not chasing girls.

[Sheng Yan]: Gotta say, when it comes to emotional intelligence, Young Master’s still the king. Cat’s no match.

They both gifted around and supported popular streamers, but the Young Master always packaged himself better—he kept things professional, emphasized his role as a company boss rather than letting personal feelings show.

As for the Cat Emperor and his “Young Master misled me” story—sure, it sounded absurd.

But if you followed their involvement in the streaming scene, it wasn’t hard to connect the dots.
They had both helped push several streamers to stardom.

Not just in the distant past.
Even recently—Lory, the so-called Saintess, and the streamers who’d just gone head-to-head with Su Su in that PK battle—they were all linked.

Two total strangers wouldn’t consistently back the same streamers unless—

They were rivals. Deadlocked. Watching each other.

Shiyen thought it over for a long time, then it clicked.

Did it even matter who the Young Master or the Cat Emperor had supported?

Not really.

[Sheng Yan]: Doesn’t matter. I only care about Su Su.

[Sheng Yan gifts Su Su 99 Carnivals]

[AoTuMan]: Now that’s what I call a man (respect).

[Sugar Snap Pea]: (whispers) Other big brothers, y’all gonna let him solo-pamper our Su Su or what~?

The rest of the top gifters stayed silent—but kept showering her with presents.

Let’s be real.
Unless someone was stalking the streaming scene full-time, how could they possibly have found her so fast?

There were no explicit rules.
But anyone who had been in this world long enough understood—

The laws of this universe wouldn’t allow them to find her before the male lead did.

Sure, they had watched other female streamers before—technically a betrayal, even if it was just part of the search.

But from now on, it would only be her.
Only Su Su.

Their silent promise was buried in their hearts.

Thank goodness they’d found her.

That was enough.

Shiyen didn’t realize how different he was from the other “big brothers.”
From his perspective, Su Su was perfect—smart, accomplished, beautiful, cheerful, and talented.

Of course people would fall for her.

He’d already been dreaming of her, heart and soul.

Even if his rivals came from powerful backgrounds, that didn’t scare him.
It only made him more determined to win.

A cool night breeze swept past. Shiyen looked down at the warmly lit window of the apartment below.

The place didn’t have great soundproofing.
Until recently, he’d often heard two girls chatting every evening.

Especially her roommate, who was always loud and full of energy.
She’d burst in after work yelling,

“Su Su, come out! Let’s grab late-night snacks!”

Tonight, though, it was unusually quiet.

She was still streaming—but her sessions rarely lasted more than two hours.
And just like that, it was already time to say goodbye.

If he invited her to voice chat and sleep together on stream tonight…

Would that cross a line?

Shiyen decided to test the waters.

*[Sheng Yan gifts Su Su “Calling You” 9999] (twice… then thrice…)

Ahem. “Calling You.”

That was obvious enough, right?

“Thanks for the call, Sheng Yan ge! We won this round—what should we make Cat Emperor do as punishment?”

Chu Junling heard her light, cheerful voice as she thanked him for the gifts.

His lips pressed into a thin line, and his pale face looked even more flustered—like a guilty kid who knew he’d messed up.

“Senior can punish me however she likes.”

[TragicAF]: Make him write a 5,000-word apology letter to the streamer.

[Is this guy a top 80 gifter?!]

[Not gonna lie, Cat Emperor is hot. I’m weak.]

[We love this kind of drama. Give us more, Moses Moses! Big bros better keep spoiling our Su Su baby!]

[Usually I don’t simp for anyone, but even I can’t resist this one. Cat Emperor’s crying. (sob)]

[Cat Emperor: crying kitty emoji]

[Don’t let him off easy, Su Su!]

[User17493258: As long as he’s willing to change, our Su Su isn’t unreasonable.]

[(snickering) Never seen a top gifter this whipped before. Throwing money and taking heat from the streamer.]

[Honestly, I bet some of these guys enjoy getting scolded. If Su Su yelled at me, I’d—well, let’s just say, I’d explode.]

[Whoa there, that’s a little graphic! Typing with one hand, are we?]

[Where’s your other hand, huh? Fess up!]

[Su Su, marry me—] (muted by mod Sheng Yan)

[Sheng Yan: Ask Cat if he wants to come back. If so, tell him to make a new account just to do missions for you.]

[AoTuMan: Yan ge… I’m literally in tears.]

[Sugar Snap Pea: I’m crying money!!]

Su Ci squinted at her phone. The Cat Emperor’s stream was blurry, but she could still make out a shimmer of tears at the corners of his eyes.

Well… okay, her heart softened just a little.

It wasn’t entirely his fault—streamers were incredibly tempting when money was on the line.

“So… Cat Cat, you’ll make a new account to help me do tasks? Sheng Yan ge gets to decide your punishment. If you don’t want to, that’s fine. We’ll just leave it at that…”

“I’ll do it! I’ll do it! Just give me a second!”

How was he this fast?
