“Why would i joke with you? When you signed the contract with Twitch, you clearly had this term in the contract. Did you forget?” Sister Zion said helplessly.
“I remember that when i signed the contract with them, it said that as long as I streamed on twitch, they would let me act. However, they didn’t say that I had to get the top three in this competition!” Yelena replied in a low voice.
“You’re really too careless. Although the contract says that they want you to act, it doesn’t say what role they want you to play. So this time, they’ll only let you play the female lead if you enter the top three. Do you know that?” Sister Zion shouted helplessly.
“Then…What should I do now?”
Yelena was completely panicking at this moment, and the hand holding the phone began to tremble.
After all, she had come to the livestream for the role of female lead. If she couldn’t get the role now, then all of Yelena’s efforts this month would be in vain.
“What else can you do but hurry up and open the livestream. I’ll get someone to help you buy some gifts and see if you can win this round first!” Sister Zion said.
“The money for the gift?”
Yelena asked hesitantly.
“Your signing fee should be five million, right? I think it shouldn’t be a problem to use this money to defeat Peggy. Anyway, when you enter the top three, this money will be returned to you, so you won’t suffer a loss…” Sister Zion said lightly.
“But i don’t have that much money on hand now. I’ve used all my money to buy a car and a house!”
Yelena was so anxious that tears began to fall. If she had known that there was such a rule, she would not have spent the money in the first place.
“You…”
Sister Zion didn’t know what to say when she heard this. She could only ask in a low voice, “Then how much money do you have on hand now?”
Yelena bit her lips and replied, “There’s about a million left!”
After Sister Zion heard Yelena’s words, she couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment. Then, she said in a low voice, “Yelena, I’ll help you borrow some money later, but it shouldn’t be a lot. If you can get 500,000 dollars, then i’ll add on the one million dollars you have.”
“How much money does Peggy have?” Yelena asked hesitantly.
“How would I know? We shouldn’t care about how much she’s farming now. Anyway, we only have this much money in our hands. It depends on whether you dare to take a gamble!” Sister Zion said softly.
Yelena looked at the computer, her expression a little awkward.
“Alright, 1 won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll help you borrow money. If you want to bet, just open the livestream. If you want to give up this opportunity, then you don’t have to open the livestream!” Sister Zion called out anxiously before hanging up.
When Yelena saw that the call had been hung up, she instantly lay helplessly on the bed. The expression on her face was very desperate.
When Connor saw Yelena’s desperate look, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
Yelena looked up at Connor and then briefly explained her situation to him.
Connor roughly understood what she was saying. The current situation was that if Yelena wanted to participate in this competition, she would have to gamble all her savings and owe 500,000 dollars in debt.
If Yelena won in the end, she wouldn’t lose anything and could even get the role of the female lead. However, if she lost, she would have nothing.
“Connor, do you want me to bet?”
Yelena was very conflicted now, so she wanted to hear Connor’s opinion.
Connor looked at Yelena without saying anything.
Yelena no longer looked indifferent like before. She looked at Connor pitifully and said, “1 don’t know how much money Peggy has prepared. If the tycoon behind her has prepared a lot of gifts, then all my money might go down the drain. But if I have to give up this opportunity like this, I’m very unwilling!” “Why don’t you take a gamble? 1 think you can win!” Connor whispered to Yelena.
“Can I really?”
When Yelena heard this, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at Connor with despair and said, “How can I win? If I had an oil baron like CeeM, I might have won…”
“Who knows, CeeM might come to your livestream to buy gifts!”
Connor replied with a smile and then continued, “Anyway, you have a house and a car now. Even if you lose, it won’t affect you much. At most, you can earn more money in the future!”
Yelena looked at Connor and hesitated for a moment before nodding, “That’s true. I think what you said makes a lot of sense. If I give up now, I’ll definitely feel bad, so I might as well take a gamble. At most, I’ll start all over again!”
After saying this, Yelena hurriedly ran to the mirror to touch up her makeup. Then, she returned to her chair and opened her livestream.
Connor sat on the spot and looked at Yelena’s back. He could not help but sigh in his heart. “Yelena helped me before, so I’ll help her this time. It won’t cost much anyway!” he thought.
Connor felt that Yelena was not a bad person. She’d never looked down on Connor and even helped him find the culprit behind the photo incident.
Therefore, Connor felt that it was not a big deal for him to spend money to help her.
After Yelena opened the livestream, her popularity instantly soared.
The comments filled the entire screen, and the number of gifts began to increase.
Yelena thought of a random excuse to explain why she was late. There were less than 20 minutes left until the end of the match. As Yelena had not started streaming, there were very few gifts. On the other hand, Peggy had received nearly 200,000 dollars in gifts.
After Yelena explained why she was late, she began to sing.
It had to be said that Yelena’s popularity was indeed much higher than Peggy’s.
Just after singing a few songs, Yelena’s reward progress bar was almost the same as Peggy’s. Both of them had received nearly 200,000 dollars in gifts.
However, Peggy and Yelena knew that it was impossible to win the competition with just 200,000 dollars.
The two of them were waiting for the final moment of the sprint. At that time, the one who had the most money would be the final winner!
Connor sat behind Yelena with an indifferent expression. He knew that Yelena would not lose today because Connor was so poor that he only had money left.
Comparing wealth to a person who had inherited ten trillion was basically no different from courting death!
