Comments of chapter undefined of Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Does the author not get paid for her story? I do not understand this gifting thing, we pay a lot of money to read this good story and does the author not get any of it? Does the author only get the gift money? If so then this app is awful and i wont read anymore, i thought by buying chapters i was paying the author for the story. i know the app should also get money but the author should at least get 40% its her/his idea, her/his imagination and her/his story afterall
