"Daddy!"
As soon as Yue Heng ended his call with Xu Jingchu, Tian Tian ran out of the living room.
She quickly jumped down the steps with her short legs.
She threw herself at Yue Heng.
Yue Heng opened his arms and hugged the naughty little girl.
Tian Tian giggled and intimately rubbed herself against Yue Heng's arms. Then, she "magically" conjured a bottle of mineral water and handed it to him. "Daddy, drink water!"
Yue Heng laughed involuntarily. "Thank you, baby."
He took the bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and took a big gulp.
It was a little sweet.
Noticing the little girl curiously looking at the stroller next to them, Yue Heng smiled and said, "I'll take you to buy New Year's goods tomorrow."
The Spring Festival was coming. Of course, they had to buy New Year's goods and spend a lively New Year in their new home.
Tian Tian bit her finger and asked, "Sister, are you coming with us?"
As the days passed, her thinking and language skills had greatly improved. She could understand other people's words and express her own thoughts clearly.
Her eloquence was no less than a three or four-year-old child's!
"Of course."
Yue Heng replied, "You'll go with me."
"Yay!"
Tian Tian clapped her little hands happily.
She turned and ran back to the living room, threw herself on the sofa, and happily reported to Queen Chong, who was watching a drama. "Sister, Daddy said he'll take us to buy New Year's goods tomorrow!"
The little girl looked as if she was asking for a reward.
"Okay."
Queen Chong nodded coldly and stretched out her arms to pull Tian Tian into her arms.
They watched the iPad together.
Tian Tian ordered the show. "Sister, I want to watch Daddy!"
"Okay."
Queen Chong readily followed the good advice and clicked on Pomelo Video's latest popular anime series, Daddy Paladin.
This anime series was adapted from a web novel and had just been released on Pomelo Video yesterday.
The little girl and Queen Chong became fans after watching the first two episodes.
Five more episodes were released today.
However, when Queen Chong clicked on the third episode, a system notification immediately popped up. [Do you wish to purchase the advanced streaming service (5 RMB episode)?]
Queen Chong was stunned.
Her account was a super VIP account of Pomelo Video, which cost her 368 yuan.
Why do I have to pay to watch VIP episodes?
He didn't use it in the past!
Queen Chong blinked as rows of data flashed across her eyes.
"There's actually such a thing!"
Queen Chong was speechless when she finally understood the reason behind this.
The so-called advanced on-demand was a value-added service launched by video websites. By paying a premium on the basis of membership, one could unlock the content of the episodes in advance.
To put it simply, it was a scam!
As for the series that Queen Chong had watched before, there was no pre-order service because those series were not the latest.
The newest one costs more!
Even though Queen Chong was not short of money, she was still very rich.
In her electronic payment wallet, the balance was more than 99.9999% of the people.
The advance streaming fee for the 5-yuan episode was not worth mentioning at all.
But Queen Chong was very unhappy.
He had clearly opened a super VIP account, yet he still had to spend more money to buy a premium fee. He felt that his intelligence had been insulted!
The Queen was furious.
"Sister?"
Tian Tian sensed her emotions and said weakly, "Are you angry?"
The redness that had just appeared in Queen Chong's eyes faded instantly.
She shook her head, and the corner of her mouth curved into a mocking smile.
"It's okay."
Queen Chong rubbed the little girl's head. "I'm not angry."
As she spoke, her pupils became incomparably dark, as deep as the universe.
She tapped on the screen of the tablet again.
This time, Pomelo Video did not ask for payment and began to play the third episode of Holy Knight Daddy.
"It's starting!"
Tian Tian immediately beamed. She twisted in Queen Chong's arms and adjusted to a more comfortable viewing position.
A smile appeared on Queen Chong's face.
While the two sisters were enjoying the episode, many people on Weibo, Kuaiyin, Wechat, Tieba, forums, and other online platforms seemed to have discovered a new continent and were discussing it fervently.
"Did you guys notice that Pomelo Video's VIP content can be watched for free?"
"Is this for real?"
"F * ck, it's true, it's really all free!"
"I'll go take a look first."
"No way, did the heavens open their eyes?"
"Hahaha, today is Pomelo Video's boss' birthday. Everyone, hurry up and watch. If you miss it, it won't be available anymore!"
"What the f * ck, I just became a VIP member!"
"Pomelo Video's giving out benefits!"
"There's a bug in the system …"
Pomelo Video was the largest video website in the country, with hundreds of millions of members and a great influence.
When someone discovered that Pomelo Video's VIP content could be watched by ordinary members, the news of "Pomelo Video's Giving Out Benefits" immediately spread all over the Internet and made it to Weibo's trending list!
Countless netizens flocked to Pomelo Video to watch the fun, causing the server to lag for a while.
Pomelo Video's technical staff was dumbfounded.
The website quickly discovered the problem and thought it was a bug in the system. However, after repeated inspections, the technical staff did not find any internal problems.
As time passed, a group of Pomelo Video's engineers scratched their heads, unable to understand why this was happening.
The system was obviously normal. No matter how they modified the settings, ordinary members could still watch the VIP content!
Under such circumstances, Pomelo Video's official account could only announce on Weibo that there was a problem with the server and that they were currently trying their best to fix it.
Then, the netizens expressed that there was no need to fix it, please don't fix it, there was no problem at all …
The topic's popularity shot to the top three.
In the end, someone jumped out and said that this was just Pomelo Video's marketing hype and that everyone should not take it seriously.
In fact, Pomelo Video's senior management was furious. They could not wait to whip the technical staff.
It felt like they were raising a bunch of good-for-nothings.
However, the technical staff felt very wronged. This was because a situation like this was simply unheard of. It was completely beyond the scope of their abilities and was very unbelievable.
The technical staff's solution was to shut down the server and conduct a comprehensive inspection to find the root of the problem.
The problem was that shutting down the server would definitely cause a considerable loss.
The longer the server was shut down, the greater the loss!
If the server was shut down and the problem could not be found, how much would Pomelo Video's stock price drop?
Even the CEO would not dare to make such a decision easily.
He could only convene a meeting to discuss an emergency response plan.
Just as Pomelo Video's CEO was in a terrible fix in the meeting room, he suddenly received a text message on his phone.
[Turn off the advance video, everything is back to normal.]
The number that sent the message was a string of zeros.
Seeing this message, Pomelo Video's CEO was stunned. He even faintly felt a trace of fear.
He felt as if a great demon king was coldly watching him, asking him to make a decision that would affect his future.
If he made the wrong choice, then he would fall into hell!
