After Lin Zhiluo left, only two directors remained, sighing deeply. They exchanged a glance.

Her words gave Zhu Yuanliang some inspiration, but he was still somewhat worried.

“Lin Zhiluo is right, that’s one way, but with Lin Zhiluo around, how could they possibly come? I know the people in this industry all too well.”

"This is a problem." The assistant director also began to worry. "We have gained popularity because Master Lin is currently the most popular among all the programs, but now that many people know about Master Lin's abilities, who would dare to come?"

The assistant director said sadly, "I think some of the artists who are still here don't want to stay, especially those who were called out by Master Lin today. I heard that Dong Jiaxi's agent has already started negotiating with the company about breach of contract fees."

"Sigh!" Zhu Yuanliang sighed as well. He glanced at his longtime friend, the assistant director. "Actually, when we invited Master Lin to our variety show, I knew that the show wouldn't last long, but my purpose wasn't the variety show itself."

The assistant director's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean?"

"Do you remember the scripts we worked on when we were young? Although they look very immature now, they were works we put our hearts into. When I saw Lin Zhiluo, I felt that she looked just like the female lead."

"What about the male lead?" the assistant director asked in a low voice. "I don't think President Qi is suitable."

"Of course it's not suitable. I already have someone in mind for the male lead. We'll finalize the project when the time comes." The director chuckled. "We can have President Qi invest. With Master Lin involved, President Qi won't let Master Lin suffer any losses."

The assistant director gave the director a thumbs up, thinking, "He really is a cunning old fox."

By using a dating reality show to generate buzz around Lin Zhiluo, their variety show has managed to stay profitable for the past seven days, even making some money in the process.

If the show is indeed cancelled, they still have a backup plan.

It might even generate another wave of buzz later on.

He truly lives up to his reputation as a cunning old fox in the entertainment industry.

After Jian Wan was taken away, the live stream was also turned off. Lin Zhilu thought for a moment, then took the tent and found a spacious place to set it up.

She looked at the moon and stars tonight and thought that tomorrow would also be a good day. In the past, when she and her junior sisters went out for training, they often slept in the wild.

"Ms. Lin, the program has been cancelled now. You can go back to the hotel to sleep. We have already booked rooms for the guests." A staff member immediately brought over the room key.

Lin Zhiluo took the room key and said with a smile, "Thank you, I'll stay here for a while."

The staff didn't want to bother her, even though they were very curious about her.

After setting up the tent according to the instructions, Lin Zhiluo began to reminisce about her past life.

When she was with her junior brothers and sisters, they were often hungry and poorly clothed in the wild. Her junior sister even had to attract a wave of poisonous insects.

But they said in private that going out to train with their senior brother was the most comfortable, as there was not only food but also lodging. In their hearts, their senior brother was still the most reliable.

"Senior Brother is still the best!" Lin Zhilu exclaimed.

"Is that so?" Qi Zhiyang's amused voice came from behind. Lin Zhiluo turned her head and saw Qi Zhiyang bending over and looking at her with a smile.

“Yes!” Lin Zhilu didn’t feel any urgency about being caught.

"Why are you suddenly praising me for being so good?" Qi Zhiyang asked, somewhat puzzled.

Knowing that Lin Zhiluo was setting up a tent here, he was worried that her body and soul were not yet in sync, and that she was still fragile, fearing that she would catch a cold again.

People who hadn't been sick for hundreds of years turned pale and bloodless upon seeing him this time.

"Thinking back to the past." Lin Zhiluo sat up straight, making room for Qi Zhiyang so that he could come in and sit with her.

"Are you thinking back to the days when I used to tell my junior brothers and sisters that I was a worrying old woman?" Qi Zhiyang turned to look at her.

Lin Zhilu felt a little guilty: "How could that be? How could I say that you're a worrying old lady when you're such a majestic senior brother?"

"I overheard it once by accident, and when my junior sister and junior brother saw it was me, they betrayed you without thinking," Qi Zhiyang said frankly. "Actually, what you said wasn't wrong."

Lin Zhilu suddenly realized: "No wonder they were so obedient and nice to me for a while. They betrayed me. They better not let me run into them."

"Achoo!" Someone who was studying hard at school sneezed.

"Achoo!" Someone struggling to survive in the mountain village also sneezed.

“You are all my junior brothers and sisters, so it’s really true that I’m taking extra care of you.” He thought for a moment and continued, “After all, you really took terrible care of yourselves in the wild.”

Lin Zhiluo turned to look at his face. Qi Zhiyang's expression was very sincere. She knew her senior brother; he was speaking from the heart.

She recalled her experiences in her previous life, and then cautiously said, "I don't think so. My junior brothers and sisters and I always gain a lot when we come back."

Qi Zhiyang looked at her helplessly: "Your survival skills in the wild are really not good. Master said that in all his years, he has never seen a disciple leave the sect plump and healthy, only to return as a skeleton."

"Master even complained to me that you guys always look like refugees when you come back," Qi Zhiyang sighed.

Lin Zhiluo asked cautiously, "So, Senior Brother will be training with us from now on because you're worried we'll starve to death out there?"

"Yes, that's what Master meant too, so I went on my training journey with you guys later on," Qi Zhiyang said with a smile. "It worked very well, after all, you all came back plump and healthy every time."

Lin Zhilu nodded: "So I'm right."

Seeing her smug look, Qi Zhiyang chuckled, his voice low and seemingly pleased.

Lin Zhiluo turned to look at him: "Senior Brother, I've noticed that you have a very handsome smile."

I've seen the eldest brother smile before, but he's really aloof. There aren't many things that can make him laugh out loud. Whenever they talk about the eldest brother in private, they all feel that he should smile more.

Lin Zhilu reflected that they really loved their senior brother when they were secretly playing with crickets, but luckily he was a good person.

"If I smile at you, will you like it?" Qi Zhiyang suddenly asked.

He had been thinking about this question for a long time, and even when he died in his previous life, he was thinking: if there is a next life, he will definitely let Lin Zhiluo know his feelings.

He met Lin Zhiluo, and he no longer wanted to suppress his feelings. After hundreds of years of questioning, he wondered if he truly loved his junior sister.

He asks himself this question every year, and his answer becomes more and more certain each year.

They have long lifespans, and he didn't want to burden his junior sister. She was so happy with her junior sisters every day, and he was afraid that if he was so boring, his junior sister would dislike him in the future.
