Chapter 6. He vomited all over him! ...

Zhao Cheng found his lunch tasteless, even though it was the Japanese restaurant with the best rating on the local food app.

Yu Shuling ate heartily and didn't stand on ceremony with this rich young master. She tried some foie gras with blueberry sauce, wasabi salmon, and Wagyu sukiyaki. She ate until she was about 60% full, since she couldn't eat too much since she was going bungee jumping in the afternoon.

Zhao Cheng finally agreed to go. After all, he had already embarrassed himself too much at the gym that morning. If he had to cancel the bungee jumping, he would have no face left to save.

However, when you actually get to the project, you realize that imagining and doing are two completely different things.

The bungee jumping location was by the sea. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was high in the sky, reflecting off the blue sea and making the waves sparkle with golden light as they surged with white foam. There weren't too many people at the beach on a weekday, and the production team even booked the bungee jumping area from three to four in the afternoon, clearing out most of the people around.

A slightly salty sea breeze brushed against her face, lifting her bangs and revealing Yu Shuling's smooth forehead.

The girl spread her arms and breathed in the fresh sea air, calmly leaving a trail of footprints on the beach. The person following behind her also had a smile on his face, but he was extremely uneasy inside.

Zhao Cheng has never considered himself to be afraid of heights, and he has even dared to ride roller coasters and the like. However, the roller coasters and drop towers in amusement parks have very thorough safety measures, unlike bungee jumping.

Although bungee jumping is safe and complies with national safety regulations, the two experiences are completely different. One involves freefalling from a great height with only ropes attached to your ankles, while the other involves being strapped to a seat. The feeling is quite different.

They arrived around 2 PM, and then a last couple of tourists jumped off, their heart-wrenching screams sounding like they were about to tear their throats apart.

The piercing scream amplified Zhao Cheng's fear, and as he climbed the stairs to the top floor, the feeling of walking towards the diving platform brought his terror to its peak.

Even if he could hold Yu Shuling, whom he had long coveted, in his arms like that couple from earlier, he wouldn't feel that this project would be of any benefit!

Zhao Cheng wanted to back out, but the cameraman followed, reminding him that this dating reality show was being broadcast live. His every word and action was being recorded and controlled, with no post-production editing. If he were to run away while the girl jumped, it would be incredibly unmanly of him.

Yu Shuling took off her baseball cap and put it aside. She went out almost completely without makeup today. Apart from sunscreen and primer, she only applied a layer of grapefruit-colored lipstick and barely applied eyeshadow, so she didn't need to worry about her makeup smudging.

The girl looked youthful and radiant with her bare face, but Zhao Cheng only regretted not teaming up with another female guest he also had some feelings for. Little did he know that Yu Shuling's hobbies were so bizarre!

I should have sent Chen Qiyang!

But it was too late to regret it. Yu Shuling generously asked him if he wanted to jump with her, and even thoughtfully took out a tissue from her pocket and handed it to him so he could wipe the sweat from his body. Zhao Cheng looked at the high-altitude platform and felt his tongue go dry. When he heard the instructor next to him say that the combined force of the two of them jumping would be greater, he decisively waved his hand and refused.

Regardless, he still valued his life and absolutely didn't want to risk any physical harm while pursuing a woman. Besides, the two of them couldn't let go while holding each other; he was afraid that Yu Shuling, who was mentally unstable, might try something unexpected in mid-air, and he would have nowhere to turn to complain then.

"No need!" This was the most straightforward refusal Zhao Cheng had ever made. "I'll do it myself!"

Yu Shuling had no intention of jumping with him in the first place. Revenge was one thing, but she wasn't happy about any unnecessary physical contact with this man. Hearing this, she feigned displeasure and pouted:

"Okay, then I'll just have to play by myself."

Last night, Yu Shuling searched for a lot of entertainment facilities in this world. Watching the videos, she could feel that the stress-relieving ability of this extreme sport was really strong.

She is daring, but the original owner of the body in the book did not have this ability and had never shown her boldness before, which surprised both fans and casual viewers.

Fans noticed that their idol seemed different starting in the morning. Previously reserved and quiet, and not particularly happy during the live stream, she's now completely letting loose. Fans speculate that Yu Shuling is probably unhappy about being forced into the dating reality show by her company; after all, in the entertainment industry, who wants to succeed during their career advancement really wants to be in a relationship?

It's all because of that damn unscrupulous company!

With the help of her instructor, Yu Shuling fastened her safety rope and walked to the diving platform. Looking down at the azure ocean shimmering with golden waves, she switched the camera angle of her live stream to the miniature camera on her head, allowing viewers to fully appreciate the beauty of the ocean. This gave her a sense of soaring over the clouds and looking down on all the mountains.

Yu Shuling jumped down voluntarily.

The viewers in the live stream felt their hearts race uncontrollably.

The wind swept past her ears, whipping her hair into a flutter. The girl swooped down like a bird spreading its wings. There was no screaming, no crying. Yu Shuling closed her eyes, and the moment she opened her mouth, a cool breeze rushed into her mouth, a little choking, but an unprecedented feeling of exhilaration.

The moment the elastic rope hit the bottom and bounced back, Yu Shuling's powerful voice resounded throughout the corner of the blue sea:

"Galaxy—I love you all—"

The chat was silent for a moment, then the chat in the live stream, which hadn't been completely controlled by fans for days, suddenly exploded. The silver-white support color burst into a huge firework and then scattered, like a meteor falling into the sea, spreading into a surging momentum and converging throughout the entire live stream.

Lyra debuted with a small company, and apart from their debut night, the girl group hasn't generated much buzz. Many of the initial fans who gathered together left due to the company's inaction, since not everyone's enthusiasm can withstand the ravages of a long hiatus.

After the group was formed, they rarely got to see each other, and there were only a few stage performances. They only appeared on variety shows once when they debuted, and their screen time was edited down to fragmented appearances and timed out. Later, they simply stopped having any activities, and the leader, Li Song, developed psychological problems.

Even the fans are worried day and night that Lyra might disband soon. They can't find any way to save this precarious group and can only waste their time reminiscing about their past enthusiasm.

When Yu Shuling announced her participation in a dating reality show, some fans had already quietly unfollowed her, speculating that, as the haters claimed, the company planned to squeeze out the last bit of value from her and then discard her. But at this moment, Yu Shuling called out the name of the group's fans.

Their most pressing need is simply official recognition, and with a year left before their contracts expire, Yu Shuling has no immediate plans to abandon her teammates and develop her career independently.

She had never tried the new concept of a "girl group" before, but since she was already here, she might as well go for it. Yu Shuling wasn't too resistant at the moment, especially since several members, including the sick captain Li Song, sent her messages of concern after the lights were turned off last night.

Judging from the chat logs, their relationship wasn't actually as bad as depicted in the story.

This world is constructed based on a novel, but it doesn't follow the script exactly. For example, Yu Shuling is just cannon fodder in the book. Her teammates are not described in detail and are only briefly mentioned. Her teammates haven't done anything like that yet, so Yu Shuling doesn't have any ill feelings towards the group.

After the event, Yu Shuling was taken to a floating boat. She immediately perked up and looked at Zhao Cheng on the high platform, cupping her hands around her mouth to cheer him on. Because they were too far apart, the people on the platform were a bit blurry, but she was sure that Zhao Cheng had already considered backing down.

But she was determined not to let him have his way.

In the original storyline, this man was one of the catalysts that led to the original owner's downfall. He was frivolous and rude to women, and abused his status as a rich second-generation heir, doing whatever he pleased. He was no good at all. Yu Shuling had no qualms about teasing him and shouted loudly:

"Brother Cheng—if you're not feeling well, that's fine, I won't force you—we can go go submarine riding—"

"Bullshit!" Zhao Cheng couldn't help but curse in his heart. Yu Shuling's attempt to save face was worse than not giving him any at all. Anyone with eyes could see that he was perfectly fine. How could he suddenly be feeling unwell and unable to play? The more she acted like this, the more trapped he became!

Forget it, if Yu Shuling, a woman, can jump, what can't he, a grown man, do?

At worst, he could just close his eyes and steel his resolve; even if he fell into the sea, he wouldn't drown. Zhao Cheng's feelings towards Yu Shuling now went beyond mere resentment; he simply wished he could end their date as soon as possible and get rid of her. He'd accept any woman, but he absolutely didn't want this lunatic anymore.

But even though Zhao Cheng had no illness, he still screamed incoherently the moment he was pushed off the cliff after he was all hesitant about bungee jumping. Every pore on his body was opened by the wind, and every cell in his body screamed with fear. All his tension and fear reached their peak the moment he hit rock bottom and bounced back.

Because he was worried, he didn't eat much at noon, so when he came down, he felt nauseous but couldn't vomit. His head was spinning, and it took him a long time to finally calm down. But Yu Shuling was like a lively rabbit, getting more and more excited as she played, and dragged him to go on the submarine ride.

Zhao Cheng didn't know how he managed to keep going in the second half. He felt like an empty shell being dragged around by Yu Shuling. At dinner, he was so hungry that he barely managed to drink a glass of red wine and eat a few bites of steak, and he could barely keep up a smile.

When the two returned to the villa side by side, Zhang Deqi, the male guest who saw someone coming back from the window, took the initiative to open the door. Seeing that Zhao Cheng looked drunk, he quickly came to support him.

However, just as he put his arm around the man's shoulder, he heard a "whoosh" and the man vomited a mouthful of filth all over him!
