Some are expectant, some are suffering, and some are unable to sleep at night.
In the blink of an eye, four days have passed, and the second season of the variety show has finally premiered.
Friday, 8:30 AM.
All guests gather at the filming location.
The live broadcast starts, and the director appears first with the five veteran guests.
The bullet comments explode in an instant, and the number of online viewers in the live stream room skyrockets.
Fans of each guest scream non-stop.
【Ahhh, I haven't seen my older brother for a week, I miss him, I miss him.】
【Hello An Gou, we meet again!】
【It's been four days, it feels like a century has passed.】
【What about the promised new guest?】
【Yeah, why don't I see the new guest?】
……
On-site, after the guests greet the camera lens one by one.
The director finally speaks.
"Now, let us welcome the new guest with warm applause."
Scattered applause rings out, and everyone looks in the direction the director is pointing.
Jiang Yuanyuan also looks over.
Then, she sees a girl walking out swaggeringly with one hand in her pocket.
Lu Ling!
It is actually Lu Ling!
The bullet comments go wild.
【It really is Lu Ling.】
【Good heavens, this is so exciting!】
【She's here, she's here, Lu Ba is really here. Sisters, I'm going to take a screenshot and post it on Weibo to rally everyone.】
……
Upon seeing Lu Ling, Jiang Yuanyuan's complexion turns pale in an instant.
Gu Nianchen's complexion is equally dramatic.
Watching Lu Ling walk closer, he cannot help but sneer.
"Heh~"
She said such absolute things a few days ago, did she really think she was serious?
I didn't expect her to be unable to hold back so quickly and follow him here?
Sure enough, a sycophant is a sycophant; can she not live without him?
Gu Nianchen looks at Lu Ling with cold eyes, about to mock her.
Suddenly, his shoulder is hit hard by someone, and he staggers, nearly falling over.
After finally steadying himself, he looks forward.
A tall figure is blocking the space between him and Lu Ling.
"Hi!"
Chi Xian'an reaches out his hand to Lu Ling: "Welcome to the pit, new guest."
Lu Ling gives him a look: "Lie down."
"How annoying!" Chi Xian'an immediately becomes coy.
"This... is that okay?"
He covers his face with both hands, then reveals his eyes through his fingers, "Tonight?"
Lu Ling: "..."
Lu Ling slaps him directly on the chest.
"Tonight your head!"
"Behave yourself, or I'll cut you down."
Chi Xian'an: covers his mouth and laughs
Bullet comments: 【...】
【An Gou, that's enough.】
【You're still as much of a dog as ever.】
【Your head is full of dirty thoughts.】
【Wait, An Gou, when did you change your style like this?】
【An Gou: When others say 'lie down', I think they mean they'll carry me to victory; when you say 'lie down', I just lie down.】
【More than that, I bet he's already thought of names for their children.】
【Pfft... that's the truth.】
【Oh my, oh my, is this something I, a VIP, am allowed to see?】
【Help, the car wheels just rolled over my face.】
【Sip, sip, I'll ship them first!】
【Open a separate live stream room for them, no, open a hotel room, I'll pay for it!】
……
On-site.
The other guests cannot hold it in and laugh.
Only Gu Nianchen keeps a straight face, his fists nearly crushed.
"This is live broadcast time, can you two be a bit more mindful?"
Chi Xian'an: "I'm afraid not."
Gu Nianchen: "..."
Gu Nianchen is so angry he almost loses his breath.
Jiang Yuanyuan is also so angry she grinds her teeth.
The other guests and staff, however, cannot help but laugh out loud.
Ling Yue'er, a sweet girl who debuted in a girl group, smiles and walks up, reaching out to Lu Ling.
"Hello, my name is Ling Yue'er."
Lu Ling reaches out and shakes her hand, "Lu Ling."
"I know, I know." Ling Yue'er holds her hand and doesn't let go.
"I've long heard of Lu Ba's great name. Seeing you today, you truly... live up to your reputation."
Actually, what she originally wanted to say was that she is truly tough enough.
Just like the rumors online, her mouth is as sharp as if it were soaked in poison.
She is truly her internet mouthpiece!
Love it!
Ling Yue'er shows star-struck eyes:
✪ω✪
Lu Ling: "..."
Lu Ling gets goosebumps all over and hurriedly pulls her hand back.
Xu Zhi smiles and greets Lu Ling.
"Welcome."
Lu Ling, "Thank you."
Jiang Yuanyuan stands next to Gu Nianchen, watching this scene with great disdain.
Enthusiasm? Good relationship?
Heh...
The Yúlè quān is nothing but a giant vanity fair.
Just wait, the higher Lu Ling is lifted up now, the more miserably she will fall later.
Jiang Yuanyuan thinks she sees through it all, yet she still cannot help but feel annoyed.
Not wanting to watch this scene anymore, she tugs on Gu Nianchen's sleeve.
Gu Nianchen looks at Hao Dou.
"Director, aren't you going to go through the process?"
The director, who is grinning, says: "Oh~ oh! That's right!"
"Alright, now that everyone has met, let's start the process."
"With a new guest joining, I will emphasize the rules again."
The director says: "On the first day of each season, you will each be given one hundred yuan as seed funding."
"For everything else, you are on your own; if you have no money, you will have to go hungry."
He looks at Lu Ling, "Do you understand?"
Lu Ling makes an OK gesture.
She says nothing.
Jiang Yuanyuan, however, speaks up.
"Director, I think one hundred yuan as seed funding is too little."
Lu Ling: "..." Her words are harsh, so she decides not to speak.
The director says helplessly: "One hundred yuan is not little."
"Originally, this one hundred yuan shouldn't even be given. The original intention of this variety show is to experience the life of a worker, so it must be realistic."
"It is only because we considered that you need an adjustment period that we have this one hundred yuan of seed funding."
"Later on, this seed funding will be cancelled."
Jiang Yuanyuan is dumbfounded.
"Workers have to eat too!"
"What can you even do with one hundred yuan?"
"That's right," Gu Nianchen also says.
"One hundred yuan is really too little. It's fine for us men, but for the girls, it's really too..."
Lu Ling cannot listen anymore, "No, I'm just wondering."
"Has a donkey been doing nothing all day but kicking both of your heads?"
"Do you understand what the life of a worker is? Do you know the real income of a worker?"
"If you can't handle this hardship, don't put on an act here."
"Is one hundred yuan of seed funding really that little? In my opinion, one hundred yuan is enough for living expenses for these three days."
"..."
【Finally, someone said what I was thinking.】
【I've wanted to say this for a long time too. A season is only three days long, and they still get one hundred yuan, what kind of experience is that?】
【Exactly, one hundred yuan is enough for me to survive for a week.】
【The program group uses the guise of realistically experiencing the lives of ordinary people, yet the guests live in a small Western-style house and receive seed funding.】
【Experience is just experience; they will never be able to empathize.】
【I don't expect them to empathize, but since they said they would experience it realistically, please don't be so melodramatic. Do you take us for idiots?】
【If Jiang Yuanyuan were truly from the bottom, she would have starved to death long ago.】
