"I’m outside your villa in Anxin District right now." Bai Ruo’s icy voice came from the Light Brain.

Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment when she heard the words "Anxin District" before it registered.

The villa in Anxin District was the one she had taken the Male Beastman back to yesterday.

The corner of her mouth twitched. The Male Beastman should be gone by now. Thankfully, she had made him leave early.

’Who would’ve thought this psycho, Bai Ruo, would be so impatient?’ She had come knocking first thing in the morning to torture the Wolf Boy.

Before Jiang Zheyu could say anything, Bai Ruo’s commanding voice came through the Light Brain again: "Hurry up and order the smart housekeeper to open the gate to your Anxin Villa!"

’Fine, fine, fine! Even the meekest person has a breaking point. Who does she think she is, ordering me around like that?! Well, she can’t blame me for dropping the act.’

"I already told you I don’t want anything to do with you. Are you incapable of understanding plain language, or are you just stupid?" Jiang Zheyu dropped all pretense. "Don’t think I don’t know you’re just using me as your pawn. You were the one behind all the vicious abuse those Male Beastmen suffered, but in the end, everything posted on the Star Network claimed I did it. Haven’t I taken enough blame for you?"

The other end of the line fell deathly silent.

"Did you get that? So let’s not see each other again. Goodbye, okay?" Jiang Zheyu let out the long speech in a single breath, feeling a weight lift from her chest after she finished.

"So you were just faking it all this time?" Bai Ruo’s voice came from the Light Brain, seething with anger. "Don’t you forget who saved you when the other females were bullying you!"

Jiang Zheyu felt so exasperated she could laugh. "Oh yeah, thanks a million. You really ’saved’ me, just to throw me from one pit into another."

Bai Ruo seemed to realize playing the sympathy card wasn’t working. Her tone shifted instantly, now full of warning. "Jiang Zheyu, don’t forget, I still have videos of you bullying other Male Beastmen."

Jiang Zheyu remembered. In most of the videos she filmed of Bai Ruo abusing Beastmen, Bai Ruo had worn a mask. Only the original owner of this body had shown her real face. Bai Ruo never warned her, and had even promised she would never leak the videos.

’What does something that Jiang Zheyu did have to do with the Jiang Zheyu of now?’

"Oh? Post them if you want. I already have so much dirt on me, a little more won’t make a difference," Jiang Zheyu said, her face impassive.

’I’m already number one on the list of Female Masters the entire interstellar Male Beastman population least wants to be matched with. What’s there to be afraid of?’

Tired of wasting her breath on Bai Ruo, Jiang Zheyu hung up on the unknown number and blocked it.

That crazy woman Bai Ruo had completely ruined her good mood for the day.

Then Jiang Zheyu remembered that this psycho, Bai Ruo, was the incredibly formidable villainess from the novel *The Big Shots Are Frantically Tearing Out Her Hair Extensions For Her*, and her heart sank again.

Now that she had dropped the facade with Bai Ruo, there was no way Bai Ruo would let her off the hook.

「At the entrance to the Anxin Villa community.」

Bai Ruo stared coldly at her Light Brain. ’How dare a lowly C-rank female provoke me. I’ll make Jiang Zheyu pay for what she’s done.’

Meanwhile, after hanging up on Bai Ruo, Jiang Zheyu channeled her anger into motivation and started working out in the exercise room.

After a satisfying workout, she was glistening with sweat. As a beautiful woman, a toned waist with defined abs was non-negotiable.

That’s why Jiang Zheyu had been focusing her workouts these past few days on getting those abs.

Not that this body had any fat on its waist to begin with; it was already fair, flat, and beautiful.

But Jiang Zheyu continued the habit from her modern life, both to stay healthy and to make herself more pleasing to her own eye.

After all, back in her time, she had wanted to remain a "big shot’s" kept woman, which required maintaining a perfect figure and a beautiful face so that he would be willing to keep providing for her.

The big shot was famously self-disciplined and had no other women around, but she was the only one who had managed to land him, so naturally, her figure and looks were top-notch.

At first, the big shot was just playing around, but he eventually fell completely for her and married her, and only her.

Even though the big shot only ever had her, Jiang Zheyu knew that love born from lust had to be maintained by preserving her figure and looks.

So, of course, she never knew that the big shot had come to love her for who she was, no longer caring about her appearance.

It was just that Jiang Zheyu was a realist.

After washing up, she flopped comfortably onto the large, soft bed.

Only then did she excitedly grab her Light Brain. ’This is it, the moment I witness a miracle! In a flash, I’ll be a rich woman overnight!’

Jiang Zheyu happily opened her account. But when her eyes fell on the balance, her expression shifted from excited joy to sheer horror.

The dozens of zeros she had expected to see on her account were nowhere to be found.

The balance displayed on the Light Brain was:

Star Coins.

Jiang Zheyu: ...

Her amber eyes widened as she began to check the account’s transaction history.

A single look revealed that the original owner had spent tens of millions of Star Coins on an app called Xingdou.

On top of that, she had transferred millions more to other people, with each transaction in the thousands of Star Coins.

She remembered now. The original owner had followed many suggestive Male Beastman streamers on Xingdou and was even the number one, two, or three top supporter for a select few.

The original owner’s money was all spent on these suggestive Beastmen.

It took Jiang Zheyu a long moment to accept this reality.

She thought she’d be able to buy lots of things and enjoy the pleasure of shopping, but instead, reality slapped her hard across the face.

Just then, her Light Brain chimed. A message popped up from a contact in her friends list named "Sexy and Sweet Little Tease Tiger": "Big sis, you busy tonight?"

Attached was a sexy, revealing selfie.

Jiang Zheyu stared blankly at the pop-up message. She had some recollection of this little tiger. She’d previously seen that the original owner’s photo album was mostly filled with this White Tiger Beastman’s selfies, though she had already deleted them all.

Usually, Male Beastmen who streamed on the Star Network were either desperately poor or had a very low Spiritual Power Level. Otherwise, they wouldn’t resort to it.

Of course, there was another possibility: some Male Beastmen streamed on the Star Network hoping to attract the attention of more females and find a partner sooner, waiting for the day they’d be chosen by a female.

But there were countless Male Beastmen in the interstellar space, an innumerable number of whom were handsome. Every streaming category had its top star, so it was truly difficult for a newcomer to become famous overnight.

The White Tiger Beastman streamer on the other end seemed to notice Jiang Zheyu hadn’t replied and sent another message: "Big sis, you didn’t show up last night, and the other big sisses and I couldn’t beat the Snake Beastman. Can you come watch Ah Bai tonight?"

Jiang Zheyu understood. He was asking her to come and spend money on him.

In her past life, Jiang Zheyu had also relied on her beauty to land a big shot and be kept by him.

So, in a way, this White Tiger Beastman was in the same line of work as her.

Jiang Zheyu was still reeling from the 250 in her balance when a loan repayment reminder from the Imperial Bank arrived on her Light Brain: "Honorable female Jiang Zheyu, the 2,500,000,000 you borrowed from the Imperial Bank is now overdue. Please monitor the Imperial Bank’s official website for timely repayment information..."
