24 – The Female Star Instantly Becomes a Silly Renovation Worker
Yan Qing swept the table clean of all the crayfish.
[Ding! Random task of eating crayfish completed!]
[Task reward: Su Jinxia gets diarrhea all night long!]
She patted her round, full belly and left the restaurant contentedly, then dragged Jiang Wangyan to the building materials market, picking and choosing from the few small shops that were still open.
“Thank you, Senior Jiang, for treating me to crayfish!”
Yan Qing hugged a pile of renovation materials, tilting her head sweetly, her smiling eyes bright and sparkling.
Jiang Wangyan gave a soft hum. “Get to bed early.”
Yan Qing had bought quite a few indoor decorations and small trinkets.
She held the box with both hands but suddenly, as if possessed by some primordial strength, she pulled out one hand, supporting the box with just one arm while freeing the other to wave goodbye. “Bye-bye-bye!”
Jiang Wangyan’s heart skipped a beat.
He nearly rushed over to help the girl steady the box, fearing she might sprain her wrist, but then he saw the box floating lightly in her single hand as if it weighed nothing at all.
Yan Qing turned and skipped back to the dormitory building.
“Silly girl,” Jiang Wangyan sighed helplessly, pinching the bridge of his nose.
Only after the girl’s figure disappeared from sight and the lights in her dorm room turned on did he turn away and pull out his phone to make a call—
“Contact the production team. I’m coming over tomorrow.”
…
Yesterday, Su Jinxia had the entire practice room to herself.
The cameras captured her studying the musical score and practicing the dance from start to finish, but there was no sign of Yan Qing at all.
“I don’t know where Qingqing went either…”
Su Jinxia bit her lip lightly. “Maybe she’s not feeling well. I’m sure she wouldn’t slack off. It’s fine, really. I’ll just teach her after I learn it myself, even though she’s the center.”
「When will this nobody get hit by a car?」
「Absolutely disgusting! Her skills are already terrible, and she doesn’t even show up for practice? Trying to drag our Xiaxia down, huh?」
「How does someone like her deserve to be the center? I’m so mad. Hugs to Xiaxia, it must be so tough having a teammate like this.」
「Don’t cry, Xiaxia! We’ll help you curse her out tomorrow!」
Fans were indignant on Su Jinxia’s behalf.
They even planned to collectively report to the production team, demanding punishment for her lack of participation and to give the center position back to Su Jinxia!
But Yan Qing, without a phone, knew nothing about any of this.
Saturday morning, the livestream began as usual. The moment the cameras turned on, haters flooded into her dormitory livestream, eager to tear her apart!
Instead, a breathtakingly beautiful face filled the screen.
To capture authenticity, the livestream started at six in the morning. The production team had intended to film the female contestants’ sleeping postures and their real morning routines…
But they hadn’t expected Yan Qing to already be up!
Not only that, but her delicate, makeup-free face was somehow smudged with paint.
「Damn, every time I see this face, I can’t bring myself to curse.」
「New here, just asking! What is Yan Qing doing up so early instead of sleeping in? What’s that messy stuff in her hands?」
Yan Qing had no idea the livestream had already started.
In the Quick Transmigration World, she had been forced to develop the habit of waking up early. At six o’clock, she simply couldn’t sleep. Normally, she’d get up to meditate, but today she had something more important to do…
And that was—renovating!
The viewers in the livestream were utterly confused.
They watched as Yan Qing, who seemed to have gathered materials from who-knows-where, scurried around like a little monkey, busily working on renovations.
「New viewer here, is this female celebrity Doraemon or something?」
「Why is she acting like a construction worker while everyone else is still asleep? She’s even painting…」The dormitory arranged for her by the program team was indeed shabby.
Yan Qing could endure hardship, but she would never let herself suffer if she had the means. So last night, she went scavenging at the building materials market, ready to rely on her own hands to make life more comfortable.
“I’m a little painter, painting so strong~”
Yan Qing energetically bounced around the dorm, her movements so fast they were dizzying.
The anti-fans almost forgot why they had come…
It was as if Yan Qing had magic—the damp, moldy, and dilapidated walls were covered with wallpaper. The beige wallpaper instantly brightened the dark, cramped little dorm!
The only furniture originally provided was a camp bed.
The rusty bed frame was repainted by her, quickly looking brand new!
Yan Qing also bought beige bedsheets, natural wood-colored pillowcases, and light gray duvet covers, simply sprucing up the bedding.
She even decorated the head of the bed with an artistic wall hanging.
A newly purchased bedside table held a vase she had personally arranged with flowers, and a small round table held a bottle of mood-setting scented candles.
The rundown dorm instantly transformed into a cozy little room!
#Learning Renovation from a Female Celebrity’s Livestream#
“??? This trending topic has me baffled. What’s going on? Why is a female celebrity doing renovations?”
“I thought someone had landed a renovation endorsement, but it turns out it’s really a female celebrity turned renovation worker?”
“Wow, it looks so nice! Is this the legendary Morandi color palette? The combination is so comfortable!”
Many people flooded into Yan Qing’s livestream from the trending topic.
They all came to watch her renovate, but the girl didn’t know the camera was already on. She wiped her nose with the hand she had just used to paint the camp bed, smearing paint on the tip.
Her misty, watery eyes, paired with the messy look from the renovation, were utterly charming.
“This girl is so pretty! Even with paint all over her face, her beauty shines through. Why isn’t she popular?”
Yan Qing blinked her delicate fox-like eyes.
She put down her tools, examining the newly renovated room. When she lifted her face, the morning sunlight happened to hit her, making her profile flawless!
But just as casual viewers were getting hooked on her looks…
The girl suddenly stood up. “I need to take a shit.”
“????????????????”
“Help! That scene was so beautiful I almost became a fan of her looks. Can someone please seal her mouth shut?”
“Ugh, what do you mean ‘take a shit’? Listen, fairies don’t poop. Can you just go back to flaunting your looks?”
“Damn! The anti-fans forgot why they came. Watching her renovate is actually kind of addictive.”
Yan Qing couldn’t see the comments. She darted out of the dorm like a little mouse but soon scurried back, grabbed a roll of toilet paper, and dashed out again.
She went to the bathroom to clear her system.
[Ding! System verification: The host feels refreshed after using the restroom. Reward: 100,000 yuan in pocket money!]
Yan Qing was already used to this notification.
Satisfied with earning her first bucket of gold for the day, she washed her face, brushed her teeth, and prepared to head out for practice.
But suddenly, a staff member stopped her…
“Yan Qing, someone is looking for you outside.”
The girl nodded and started to walk out, but the staff member quickly grabbed the hem of her shirt, looking a bit nervous and hesitant. “Um…”
“What’s wrong?” Yan Qing looked at her, puzzled.The staff member pursed her lips tightly. “The person looking for you is a lawyer, and it seems like they have ill intentions… Anyway, be careful. I can’t say more, and don’t you dare sell me out!”
After saying that, she immediately ran off.
Yan Qing blinked her eyes lightly. “A lawyer?”
She tilted her head and thought seriously for a moment, then suddenly her eyes lit up as if she had remembered something.
Could it be… Yan Shimo!
Her dear son had finally come looking for his mother!
