Chapter 7 You’d Better Not Sleep So Soundly!

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Lin Yu and Ji Fei had successfully signed their contracts, securing the agreement for "Days Spent with a Popular Celebrity." After a month of preparation, the show finally reached its filming day.

On the day shooting began, Ji Ya drove her luxury car, bringing Lin Yu to the filming location—a remote village surrounded by mountains and rivers, sparsely populated. Ironically, their million-dollar car broke down halfway.

In the end, Lin Yu borrowed a tiny electric scooter, carrying the heiress with a trillion-dollar fortune to the filming site. Poor Ji Ya, dressed in a custom outfit worth tens of thousands, lugging an enormous suitcase, sat in the back seat, her face dark as coal.

Everyone from the production team was left dumbfounded by the sight.

What on earth was happening?

The director nearly fell out of his chair, stunned, then hurried over in a panic. To have Ji Ya join their show was a stroke of luck spanning eight lifetimes. If not for her, the popular star Bai Yichu would have never agreed to participate! Without Bai Yichu, they weren’t even sure the show would garner any viewership. In truth, Ji Ya was the show’s savior.

If Ji Ya’s fans saw their goddess arriving at the set on an electric scooter, the program would be criticized into oblivion before it even aired!

How dare they let the heiress ride a scooter? Were they courting death?

“Boss, the director’s team is so enthusiastic—even the director himself came out to greet us.”

Meanwhile, in the show’s livestream room, countless viewers had been waiting for the official broadcast ever since the guest list was revealed. As soon as the stream went live, the audience flooded in.

Seeing that Ji Ya had truly arrived, the comment section exploded.

“Good heavens, I thought it was just hype, but Ji Ya really is here!”

“Hey, upstairs, wipe your drool! I thought it was raining just now. Stop making creepy faces at my goddess Ji Ya!”

“What the heck, they actually made Ji Ya ride an electric scooter? Is the production team this broke? Just shut it down already!”

“If it shuts down, how will we watch? But that guy riding the scooter—he’d better not sleep too soundly tonight, or I’ll come after him!”

“The director’s enthusiasm was for Ji Ya, not you, buddy. You looking to get fired?”

As the livestream captured the director helping Ji Ya off the scooter, the opening scene was a thunderbolt; Lin Yu and the production team were instantly bombarded by comments.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu, forgotten at the side, looked around with excitement, his demeanor like a country bumpkin seeing the world for the first time.

“Wow, did the production team actually hire a special-needs staff member? I take back my criticism of the director—he’s got a big heart!”

“This guy looks a bit simple, but thankfully he didn’t crash while driving my goddess Ji Ya. Otherwise, I’d have skinned him alive.”

“What a shame—so handsome, but apparently an idiot! Looks like good looks really do cost IQ.”

“Wait, hang on, didn’t I see this guy in the guest promo poster?”

…

At that moment, Ji Ya was sipping jasmine tea prepared by the director, her gaze full of resentment as she stared at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu, meanwhile, was utterly distracted by the delicious aroma wafting through the air, oblivious to Ji Ya’s murderous glare.

After a long journey, his stomach rumbled, and he dashed forward, grabbing Ji Ya by the wrist and sprinting toward the distant kitchen.

“Boss! It’s time to eat! Hurry up!”

“I’m starving—come on, come on, come on! If you’re not eager for food, your mindset is flawed!”

Poor Ji Ya—her jasmine tea traced a parabola through the air as Lin Yu dragged her along, her face stunned.

The production team exchanged bewildered glances, as if witnessing something utterly unbelievable. Their jaws dropped.

Heavens above… They’d just watched an unknown entertainer naturally grab Ji Ya’s hand and race with her toward the kitchen…

Could it be that these two had some ambiguous relationship?

The comment section fell silent for a moment, then exploded with frenzy.

“My goddess! She actually had her hand grabbed! She’s no longer pure!”

“Upstairs, just wash her and she’ll be good as new…”

“Thunderbolt at the opening—are we all just cuckolds watching this? Fine, fine, fine!”

“No wonder the heiress, who’s never had any rumors, suddenly agreed to film a romance show—turns out there’s a hidden relationship. I’ve lost my love!”

“What does the goddess see in him? Coach, teach me!”

“Front row ad: Family, hurry and buy our electric scooters. Ride one, win your goddess, reach the pinnacle of life! Be a winner! Order now for a discount!”

“Damn, are you really an electric scooter dealer? Quick, drop the link!”

“I’ll name a price—9.99, hop on!”

“Dealer: ????”

…

The filming location for this show, it was rumored, had been prepared a year in advance. Upon arrival, Lin Yu realized the production team had spared no expense—in this remote area, they had built rows of villas.

Between mountains and rivers, they had created a picturesque villa district, far from the city’s noise.

Moreover, each villa had its own courtyard, with stone paths lined with roses and monthly roses, and a vegetable garden within.

Inside, the first floor was a living room and kitchen, while the second and third floors housed the guests, with only three or four rooms per floor.

There were also dressing rooms, makeup rooms, and activity areas.

Not bad—it matched the effect he’d seen in the previous life’s version of the show, and experiencing it in person was even more impressive.

Looking at the perfectly equipped villa, Lin Yu broke into a relaxed smile.

In his previous life, he’d sacrificed too much for that girlfriend who sold green hats, and even before his death, couldn’t scrape together a single complete bill.

Now, reborn, he’d been personally signed by the biggest entertainment agency owner, and after a month, gained the opportunity to live in a villa. He would never repeat the days of scrounging for meals or hiding from unpaid rent.

Moreover, he would now get to spend his days with countless men’s dream woman. This life… truly… was just too cool!

After four years of being betrayed in his previous life, this sudden wealth was nothing less than what he deserved.

This time, he swore to live spectacularly and make those who once ground him beneath their heels suffer every torment he endured before.

But for now, his most important task was to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, so he could have the strength to confront Wu Zhen.
