Oops! My Videos Leaked Across Time and Broke the Internet! - Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Earn Money by Watching Short Videos, Opening Scene: Yang Mi Asks, “Where’s My Husband?”

“You can earn money just by watching short videos?”

“At least 100 yuan per video?”

“And the payment arrives instantly, is this for real?”

In a rented apartment in Jiangzhou, Lin Chen, who was in the middle of a video game, saw a pop-up ad for an app called “Cross-Time Short Videos.” He couldn’t help but scoff.

“Only an idiot would believe this!”

Just as he was about to close the ad, the app installed itself automatically and opened on its own.

“Seriously?”

“These scam apps are getting out of hand!”

“It bypassed the antivirus and installed itself?”

Lin Chen closed the app, ready to uninstall it manually, when another series of notifications popped up.

[Ding!].

[Congratulations! You are the first registered user of Cross-Time Short Videos. You have received a 10,000-yuan sign-up bonus!].

[The reward has been deposited directly into your bank account!].

[From now on, you’ll earn at least 100 yuan for every video you watch!].

[No withdrawal limits, start watching now!].

Lin Chen smirked. “Do these scammers really think people are this stupid?”

Even if this were real, how could they deposit money into his account without him providing his bank details?

But then, as if reading his mind, another notification appeared.

[Ding! Your bank account ending in 7798 has received 10,000 yuan. Current balance: 10,008.2 yuan.].

Lin Chen froze.

His bank account did end with 7798.

Skeptical, he opened his banking app, and sure enough, his balance, which had been a measly 8.2 yuan, now showed 10,008.2 yuan!

His disbelief turned into excitement.

This was real!

From now on, every short video he watched would earn him at least 100 yuan!

This was like money falling from the sky!

Without hesitation, he opened the app.

The words “Cross-Time Short Videos” appeared in bold.

Then, the first video played.

The screen was dark at first, and Lin Chen heard a woman’s ambiguous moaning.

As the image cleared, he saw a half-dressed woman lying drunk on a bed.

Then, her face came into focus, Yang Mi!

“Wait… where’s my husband?”

Lin Chen was stunned.

Was this even a legit app?

How was the content this explicit?

What Lin Chen didn’t know was that as he watched the video, a massive sky screen appeared across different timelines, from the year 2000 to 2018.

And as he scrolled through the videos, the enormous screen began to glow.

Across Different Timelines (2000-2018)

Longguo (Dragon Nation) – 749 Bureau

The 749 Bureau was a secret organization that researched supernatural phenomena.

For years, they had studied the mysterious sky screen, but they had found nothing, until now.

A sharp alarm blared.

“Professor! We’re detecting massive energy fluctuations!”

“It’s coming from the sky screen!”

The gray-haired professor watched as faint light flickered across the screen, his expression grave.

“The sky screen has been dormant for three years.”

“Now, it’s finally active.”

“Is someone trying to send us a message?”

Their investigations had confirmed that the sky screen appeared only over Longguo.

Some believed it was a divine omen, meant to convey crucial information.

As everyone watched intently, six words appeared:

“Cross-Time Short Videos.”

The professor frowned.

The researchers erupted into chatter.

“What does this mean?”

“Is this some kind of alien technology?”

The professor silenced them.

“Don’t jump to conclusions.”

“Whatever this is, we must uncover the truth, before it threatens Longguo’s security!”

2006 – Xie Tingfeng’s Concert

A packed stadium roared as Xie Tingfeng finished his song and prepared to exit the stage.

Suddenly, the sky screen lit up.

The words “Cross-Time Short Videos” appeared.

The crowd murmured in confusion.

His manager paled.

“Tingfeng, the sky screen is showing something!”

“We should cancel the concert, this could be dangerous!”

Xie Tingfeng waved him off.

“Relax. The screen flickers all the time.”

“It’ll probably fade in a minute.”

But instead of fading, the screen emitted a woman’s unmistakable moans, a sound Xie Tingfeng recognized all too well.

It was the same sound Zhang Bozhi made when they were… busy.

He let out a bitter laugh.

“What kind of sky screen is this?”

“Feels a bit… inappropriate.”

2014 – Yang Mi & Liu Kaiwei’s Wedding

In a luxurious five-star hotel, Liu Kaiwei held Yang Mi’s hand as they entered the grand hall.

The host smiled.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the wedding of Liu Kaiwei and Yang Mi!”

“The ceremony will now begin!”

But before the host could continue, Liu Kaiwei’s cousin burst in, panicked.

“Something terrible has happened!!!”
