Chapter 36

In the original novel, Lin Shanchu had never interacted with Huo Xunzhou.

It was only when the finale was about to come that she accidentally read the rumors of Huo Yunzhou and Yun Wu’s relationship.

That was the only scandal Huo Xunzhou had.

Lin Shanchu was not clear about the follow-up of this incident. She only remembered that Huo Xunzhou did not appear to clarify.

However, didn’t the system say that Huo Xunzhou had no love line?

Lin Shanchu finally remembered the stupid system that she had blocked.

Lin Shanchu called out to the system in her mind. “Hey idiot, come out for a moment.”

The system, which had been restarted, was extremely touched. [Host, you finally remembered my existence!]

Lin Shanchu asked, “Are Yun Wu and Huo Xunzhou an official match?”

The system searched for a while. [There are spoilers involved. I have no right to view them.]

Lin Shanchu was speechless. As expected, she shouldn’t have had any expectations from this useless system.

Lin Shanchu was multitasking and was a little distracted when talking to the system in her mind. She gradually stopped applying makeup on Yun Wu, but her eyes were still staring at her.

After getting stared at like this for a long time, Yun Wu uncomfortably stroked her hair and asked in an awkward tone, “Am I that pretty?”

Lin Shanchu suddenly came back to her senses and laughed. “Yup.”

Yun Wu wasn’t the kind of person who would stun others at first glance.

She had the confidence that ordinary people couldn’t have. She was full of energy, and it was hard for people not to be attracted to her unique charm.

Yun Wu brushed a few locks behind her ear, already sounding more awkward. “If you want to stare at a beautiful woman, you can always look at yourself in the mirror. Hurry up and help me with my makeup. The others are done.”

Lin Shanchu put on makeup that screamed cool and nihilistic in accordance with Yun Wu’s temperament.

Yun Wu took a mirror and looked at herself. She stared at Lin Shanchu in disbelief.

“Do you not like it?” Lin Shanchu asked.

“I like it,” Yun Wu muttered.

She looked at Lin Shanchu’s beautiful and slender hands.

Were this woman’s hands filled with magic?

Her own beauty made her want to tear up.

At this moment, a staff member came over.

“Are the members ready? Come over and get ready for the livestream.”

The members stood in an orderly manner.

Lin Shanchu and Yun Wu were arranged to be at the end of the line.

As soon as the livestream started, many netizens came in from the trending list.

[I’m here to look at pretty girls.]

[Is there anyone else who’s here for Lin Shanchu other than me?]

[I’m here for Qiao Jiaxi.]

[Jiaxi, we’re here!]

[I just followed the trending list. I heard that this show features many pretty girls.]

The host stepped forward.

Hello, everyone. This is the first online gathering for the members of ‘My Stage’. Next, we will be meeting all 99 members of this show. You can interact with the heart icon located on the lower left corner if you see a member that you like. After the livestream, the members who are ranked higher on the heart list will be given an additional round to show off themselves…”

The members began to introduce themselves in order.

For the members who already had a fan base, their fans had already arrived at the live broadcast room to support them.

The director’s crew connected it to a big screen on the side so that everyone could see real-time images and the comments.

Everyone was staring at the big screen and whispering to each other from time to time.

It was already past lunch time. Lin Shanchu was terminally ill to begin with, so she was starting to feel uncomfortable.

She lowered her head, trying to relieve some of the discomfort in her body.

The system noticed her abnormality and asked, [Are you in pain again?]

“I’m just a little uncomfortable,” Lin Shanchu replied.

The system suggested, [I have cards that can relieve physical discomfort. You can get them by doing missions. ]

Lin Shanchu chuckled coldly. “By doing the kind of missions that involves Lu Shiyuan abusing me?”

The system was so guilty that its voice became softer. [You can also do other missions such as deepening the entanglement with the male lead.]

Lin Shanchu ignored it.

The system kept speaking in a small and humble tone. [Anyway, it’s fine as long as you do something that’s entangled with the male lead.]

“Okay,” Lin Shanchu replied lazily.

At this moment, Yun Wu, who was beside her, reached out and pushed her.

Lin Shanchu turned her head, and Yun Wu signaled her to look at the big screen.

“Someone is scolding you in the comments.”

She stated the truth in a flat tone.

The comments all wrote,

[Can Lin Shanchu sing or dance? What could she prove by coming to this show? Are you going to play dead on the stage?]

[The queen of tardiness in the entertainment industry is probably going to put on a show of standing everyone up on the spot.]

[Not only is she ugly, but she doesn’t have any talents as well. She even took up a spot for nothing. How disgusting.]

[I’ll come back to watch it again after Ugly Lin leaves this show. Goodbye.]

Lin Shanchu just scanned the screen before retracting her gaze. She lowered her head and closed her eyes to continue resting.

“Are you not angry?” asked Yun Wu.

Lin Shanchu replied in an indifferent tone, “If I get angry whenever I see people scolding me, I’d have died a long time ago.”

“You’re quite strong,” Yun Wu said to her with a serious face.

“Thanks.” Lin Shanchu finally understood that the way Yun Wu praised people was really different.

In the time that followed, Yun Wu would speak to Lin Shanchu from time to time.

Lin Shanchu was not feeling well, so she did not have the strength to respond toward the end.

She really didn’t expect that Yun Wu, who looked cold and aloof, was actually a chatterbox.

Yun Wu didn’t mind the silence. She continued mumbling to herself the whole time.

“Is this girl’s hair blue? I also want to dye mine to that color.”

“Why are your eyelashes so well-structured?”

“She’s so skinny. Doesn’t she usually eat? ”

“I’m hungry.”

“Aren’t you hungry?” Yun Wu asked Lin Shanchu while rubbing her stomach.

Lin Shanchu responded, “I am.”

“It’ll be our turn soon,” Yun Wu said comfortingly.

Lin Shanchu slowly recovered. When she raised her head, it was Yun Wu’s turn.

When Yun Wu went up, she saw the comments cursing Lin Shanchu on the big screen.

She frowned and blurted out, “Why are you still calling Lin Shanchu ugly? Is this something you can say with a conscience?”

“P[lease start your self-introduction,” the host reminded.

Another comment flew across the screen, claiming that Lin Shanchu was only able to play the role of dead people.

Yun Wu retorted, “So what if the role is of a corpse? Not everyone can play that kind of role.”

The host was speechless.

Just like that, Yun Wu spent that precious minute attacking the commentors.

The production crew and the other members were shocked by her actions.

The comments that ensued were…

[I’m dying of laughter. This girl sure is fierce.]

[Hey sister, there are only 20 seconds left. Hurry up and introduce yourself.]

[What a brave girl! I’ve become a fan of yours! The problem is, what exactly is your name?!]

[Hahaha! Does anyone know which company does this girl belong to?]

When the minute was up, the host immediately stepped forward. “Time’s up. Please welcome the last member.”

The last member was Lin Shanchu.

As soon as she appeared in front of the camera, the number of people in the live broadcast room instantly soared.

Lin Shanchu stepped forward and bowed.

“Hello, everyone. The 98th member who said that not everyone can act the role of a corpse well is named Yun Wu. She is an individual member. To those who like her, please hurry up and interact with her heart sign.”
