Chapter 921: The Reality Show With A Surge In Viewership
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Che and the crew went to National Winner.
This show had been going on for many years. Clearly, it was indeed very popular.
When she joined the show, it was inevitable that reporters would come to interview them.
It was rare that these budget travelers were gathered together now, so many reporters rushed here.
When they sat down together, it was as captivating as when they did the program together.
Although Lin Che was no longer the goddess, she was naturally still a rose among the thorns as she sat in the middle of so many men.
Everyone looked at the two fresh faces and asked them, “Won’t you develop any feelings when you travel with Lin Che?”
One of them looked at Lin Che and then said, “Actually, I wanted to respect her very much. But after seeing her pick up newspapers to stay warm and even throw dirty socks at others and steal their money, I realized that I’ve already lost my feelings for her.”
Everyone started to talk about Lin Che, bringing up embarrassing stories of her in their conversation.
Lin Che knew that this was the result of the program, so she was not upset. Even during normal times, these friends would take jabs at one another for fun. Lin Che did not mind as she was not so petty.
Everyone subsequently brought up Lin Che’s image as a strong woman. The fresh face also mentioned that Lin Che’s complexion was really admirable. She could still look so fair despite not washing her face for days.
Lin Che huffed, “Insult me all you want, but can you not let the whole world know that?”
The set burst into laughter. This week’s episode of National Winner immediately became the most-watched episode.
The crew knew that many people watched this because it was about budget traveling.
The episode was also very helpful as publicity for budget traveling.
Sure enough, after the first week of broadcast, it immediately had top ratings and easily defeated the other traveling programs.
The crew was very proud. Everyone was happy and they called Lin Che out to celebrate.
Lin Che was also very happy. She did not expect this reality show to be a big victory. She immediately agreed very willingly.
The crew chose a club that some big shots liked to go to. Lin Che took Ah Bi along. The moment she entered, the guys immediately carried her up.
“Hey, the goddess is here.”
Lin Che was carried so high up that she exclaimed in shock, “Okay, okay. Put me down!”
They laughed and put Lin Che down.
The director said, “People say that Lin Che is a lucky star and now we have proof. Our show is on fire and everyone can relax. We won’t become arrogant. We’ll definitely continue to pursue victory. Moving forward, we’ll have a guest start every week to guarantee some freshness. We’ll also add some more activities during our travels. For example, we’ll split into groups and see which group gets to a place first. A little competition will be more engaging to the viewers.”
Everyone thought that this was very good. They raised their glasses and cheered enthusiastically.
Ah Bi looked at these men and said to Lin Che, “Thankfully, you are working with guys. I think it’s much better to work with male artists. There isn’t so much conflict. Furthermore, everyone looks after you.”
Lin Che thought the same. Perhaps men were indeed more generous than women.
Ah Bi said, “Oh, I still have to go check on Xue Yang at the set later. He’s filming tonight.”
Lin Che smiled at her. “You’ve been really busy with Minmin not around recently.”
“It can’t be helped. I wonder if Minmin can come out more often since it’s been three months.”
“I don’t think so. Mr. President is so protective of her. He definitely won’t be at ease if she came back to work.”
“Alright…” Ah Bi wanted to get some drinks so Lin Che accompanied her.
It was an inevitable clash of enemies. The moment they stepped out, they saw Yang Lin with some other people.
Yang Lin was very upset by the sudden popularity of Lin Che’s recent show.
Now that they actually crossed paths here, they could not avoid the sparks. Those eyes looked as though she wanted to eat Lin Che alive. She stared in Lin Che’s direction as she stood still.
Lin Che scoffed and walked over.
Yang Lin grunted, “I wonder how much viewership you bought so that you could be on the show. You actually have the cheek to celebrate tonight.”
Lin Che stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Yang Ling. “Yang Lingxin, Just because you like to eat **** doesn’t mean that everyone does. Who is faking viewership? Go ahead if you want to do that. See if the audience will take it.”
Ah Bi said at the side, “Lin Che, forget it. Don’t waste your energy on her. She probably ate it already so she thinks that it’s tasty. We’ve never eaten it so we won’t know how she feels. Let’s go.”
“You…” Yang Lin looked at Ah Bi and wanted to hit her.
However, Dong Zi was still by Lin Che’s side. He grabbed hold of Yang Lin’s hand and pushed her away.
Yang Lin swayed. She looked at Dong Zi and then at the two of them.
She looked fiercely at Ah Bi. “You’re just a tiny agent and you dare to talk like that about me? Who do you think you are? Just you wait!”
Lin Che could not be bothered with her. She pulled Ah Bi away and left.
When Yang Lin left, her hatred for Lin Che grew even more.
However, she knew that she couldn’t do anything to Lin Che for the time being. Thus, she vented her anger on the agent beside her.
She scoffed and ordered, “Send someone to follow that Lin Bi. Keep me informed of everything.”
That night, Ah Bi sent Lin Che home and rushed to Xue Yang.
Xue Yang was filming at night. Some fans waited anxiously outside. Ah Bi was concerned about this. She went in and said to Xue Yang, “Go take a photo with your fans later. It’s so cold and there are so many girls outside waiting. What can we do?”
Xue Yang also could not do anything about it. Young kids were too persistent.
He nodded and agreed.
Ah Bi said, “Don’t move. You need to wear more clothes. It’s cold outside at night and you’ll catch a cold easily like this. How can you work if you fall sick?” Ah Bi took a coat and put it on him.
Xue Yang looked at her petite face which was red from the cold. He smiled and reached out to touch her face.
“You’re talking about me? What about you? You don’t behave like a rich princess at all. You even came all the way to take care of me. If your dad sees you like this, his heart will definitely ache.”
Ah Bi said, “No way. My dad said that he hoped I could train a bit. Did you think I’m some pampered princess?”
“Yes yes yes, you’re the most special princess.” Xue Yang smiled as he took her out.
Both of them did not notice that someone had already walked past them in the dark. Although the camera had no flash, the lens already captured it with a click…

The next day, Lin Che woke up and got ready to visit Yu Minmin with Gu Jingze.
Ever since Yu Minmin was pregnant, she was asked by the Gu family to stay with them as a guest.
Lin Che helped Niannian prepare before they went out to meet Gu Jingze.
