The Fake Heiress Fades from the Spotlight, but Winning Big by Slacking Off and Collecting Rent

After a car accident, Yan Qiao was selected by the Space-Time Bureau. If she completed ten lifetimes of missions, she could be reborn. She worked overtime, following a 997 work schedule to finish h...

Chapter 2 Grouping

Zhang Song smiled mysteriously when he heard Yan Yaoyao's question.

"you guess."

Yan Yaoyao glared at him and said in a soft, high-pitched voice, "Brother Zhang, you're really good at keeping people in suspense."

Zhang Song laughed, "Yao Yao, could you please tell the boatman to leave his contact information and also settle the bill for the boat?"

Yan Yaoyao and Yan Qiao are the same age. After taking the college entrance examination last year, she was admitted to Yancheng Foreign Languages ​​University, majoring in English.

The director then handpicked her to be the translator, allowing her to communicate with the locals throughout the trip.

She and Yan Qiao were like a control group on the show.

As soon as she opened her mouth, fans started flooding the screen with comments.

[Yaoyao truly lives up to her reputation as a top student; her spoken English is so fluent!]

To be honest, this is far better than someone trying to create a "genius student" persona that has completely collapsed.

[Yaoyao is a true academic star. Here's a little-known fact: you need a score of at least 600 to get into the English major at Yanwai.]

After disembarking from the ship, the first task for the production team was to collect the luggage.

Zhang Song had a smug look on his face. "You can't bring more than three pieces of clothing on your body, excluding underwear. Besides the clothes and shoes you're wearing, you can't bring anything else."

In other words, all the luggage they brought had to be handed over.

Yan Qiao remained calm as she looked around. Apart from a large beach and an endless coastline, there was nothing else to be seen; it was indeed a deserted island.

Apart from the makeshift toilet set up by the production team, there was nothing else.

But it is said that the toilet only has squat toilets and water for flushing, and there is not even a sink.

If they were truly short of water, they wouldn't be able to get water from squat toilets.

Yan Qiao realized that "Home on a Deserted Island" was a genuine reality show, and she couldn't just lie around like a couch potato anymore!

Yan Qiao glanced at Zang Mingqi, who was standing side by side with Ruan Cha, and walked over.

The live stream chat exploded instantly.

Here she comes again, trying to scam people!

[Isn't Yan Qiao shameless? Her brother has rejected her so many times!]

[The first thing I do every morning: Has Yan Qiao retired from the entertainment industry?]

[Leave the entertainment industry! Leave the entertainment industry! Boycott celebrities with bad records!]

The next barrage of comments was all about "boycotting celebrities with bad records".

Yan Qiao couldn't see the comments, so she chose to ignore them. Even though she noticed Zang Mingqi's impatient expression, she still walked towards him resolutely.

Zang Mingqi leaned to the side, moving closer to Ruan Cha and trying to stay away from Yan Qiao. His disdain for her was obvious, and he had a "don't touch me" expression on his face.

Yan Qiao stopped, bowed slightly to him, and said an apology: "Teacher Zang, I am very sorry for the trouble I caused you before. I said I liked you before, but it was just to ride on your popularity. I will not bother you again. I'm sorry."

Yan Qiao didn't say "please forgive me" because she didn't care whether Zang Mingqiyuan forgave her or not.

Anyway, once she gets through another month, she'll retire from the entertainment industry and go home to live a peaceful life.

"No way, you guys don't believe her, do you?"

If she really doesn't bother my brother for the next month, I'll livestream myself doing a handstand and eating shit!

[Wait for me, I'm going to eat shit upside down on live stream +1!]

[Live stream of eating poop while doing a handstand!]

Then, Yan Qiao looked at Ruan Cha, said "I'm sorry" to her, and returned to her seat.

Neither Zang Mingqi nor Ruan Cha responded, and the others also began to show signs of impatience.

To put it bluntly, it's all a show. Yan Qiao thinks she can clear her name? Dream on.

However, her actions did attract the attention of netizens, who criticized her.

Yan Yaoyao glanced coldly at Yan Qiao, "Well done."

Black and red are still red.

"Alright, everyone, please proceed to the main camp," Zhang Song announced, holding a microphone and a flag.

After packing up their belongings, the group followed the production crew to the base camp.

"We've packed everything up. Our 'Desert Island Home' trip is officially starting! Are you all excited?"

Xiluo scoffed arrogantly, "This godforsaken place can be called a trip?"

He was a rich second-generation who was sent here by his family to be reformed. He wasn't a celebrity, so he said whatever he wanted and didn't care about his image at all.

But he's good-looking, with a roguish charm, which still garnered him a wave of fans.

Zhang Song's smile remained unchanged. "We're a reality show, so authenticity is our main focus. Of course, it has to be on a deserted island! But don't worry, we'll live off the land and the sea. The island has abundant resources, so as long as everyone works hard, we can still fill our stomachs!"

Xi Luo tugged at the corners of her lips, but couldn't manage a smile.

Zhang Song clapped his hands. "Alright, it's time for the familiar opening remarks again. Welcome to the reality show 'Home on a Desert Island,' sponsored by *** Organic Milk (a new era of nutrition), *** Novels (an immersive reading experience), and *** Short Video Platform (sharing the beauty of life)."

"The 'Desert Island Home' program takes the premise of returning to the mountains and forests, starting from scratch, and surviving with bare hands. It will broadcast the survival experience of six guests live for a month. The group of guests with the highest remaining balance in their ID account by 24:00 on August 31st will win the global brand ambassadorship of the top luxury brand L."

This reward is also why so many celebrities are willing to come and participate.

This is a rare opportunity; even if it takes a month, I have to secure this global endorsement.

Zhang Song handed out white watches to everyone and asked them to wear them.

"These are everyone's IDs, which will be used to purchase items provided by the program team in the future."

Yan Yaoyao asked in surprise, "Didn't you say we'd start from scratch?"

Zhang Song blinked. "This shows how generous our production team is. Each group starts with 1,000 yuan."

Yan Yaoyao breathed a slight sigh of relief; 1,000 yuan wasn't a small amount.

Wait, each group?

Zhang Song: "Next is the team formation drawing. You will be divided into three groups of two. The first to draw lots are Xi Luo and Ruan Cha."

Upon hearing about the team assignments, the live chat was flooded with comments that almost obscured the screen, with everyone pleading that their idols wouldn't be paired with Yan Qiao.

[Evil spirits, begone! Yan Qiao, begone!]

[This female believer wishes to maintain a balanced diet of meat and vegetables throughout her life; please, Bodhisattva, protect my brother and prevent him from teaming up with Yan Qiao!]

When will Yan Qiao retire from the entertainment industry?! When will Yan Qiao retire from the entertainment industry?! When will Yan Qiao retire from the entertainment industry?!

Xi Luo and Ruan Cha stepped forward, and the numbers they drew were "2" and "1" respectively.

Zang Mingqi's expression softened slightly, and he silently prayed in his heart that he would draw number 1.

He only wanted to team up with Ruan Cha.

"Okay, next it's Teacher Jin and Yao Yao's turn to draw."

Yan Yaoyao looked nervous, hoping to team up with Zang Mingqi so she could ride the wave of popularity.

If I could team up with him, I'd definitely gain a huge number of fans after the show ends.

She opened the slip of paper and drew a "2", meaning she was paired with Shiloh.

Yan Yaoyao thought it was alright. He was a rich second-generation, and if she got along well with him, she might be able to get some resources from him later.

Jin Wenxian drew "3". He was about ten years older than the other five people. He was a mature, gentle, and refined man, which made him very likable.
