My Wife Became a Top Star After I Came Back from Quick Transmigration - Chapter 11

The next day, the sun shone brightly.

The morning light filtered through the thin curtains and fell upon Lin Mo’s eyelids. After a slight tremor, she slowly opened her eyes.

The environment of the rental house wasn’t particularly good; the area downstairs became exceptionally lively as soon as morning arrived. There were vendors selling breakfast, people heading out to work, parents taking their children to school, and others out buying groceries or exercising.

Consequently, Lin Mo was usually awakened by the commotion downstairs around 5:00 AM. Due to her history of performing tasks, she was quite alert and found it difficult to enter deep sleep.

But this morning, she had managed to sleep until now. She stood up, stretched, and turned toward the window. The morning breeze danced through the curtains. Because of the light rain last night, the weather seemed a bit cooler.

The “village within the city” was a place left behind by the prosperous city, yet it was filled with the mundane sparks of life.

Quiet by night, clamorous by day.

Having been awakened by the noise, Lin Mo simply got out of bed. Since returning from the task world, she had temporarily rented this place for six months. In reality, Su Qixi did not live here.

Lin Mo would have to leave sooner or later—not to mention that quite a few people had been looking for her lately.

She had a bit to drink yesterday, but fortunately, it didn’t have much of an impact. She opened the window, which faced the alley below. The coming and going of pedestrians and roadside vendors made the already narrow alley even more crowded.

Lin Mo immediately noticed a man standing behind a utility pole not far away. She merely gave a light chuckle and ignored him for the moment, instead shouting down toward the street, “Auntie Lin! Soy milk and fried dough sticks—I’m coming down to get them now!”

“Coming right up!”

The man behind the utility pole quickly turned his head toward Lin Mo, pushing up his sunglasses with a look of supreme confidence.

A moment later, Lin Mo appeared downstairs wearing a set of loungewear and ruffling her hair, her small slippers pitter-pattering on the ground.

Auntie Lin’s stall was directly below Lin Mo’s rental unit. Lin Mo usually bought her breakfast here, and her portion was already prepared and handed to her.

Lin Mo skillfully scanned the code to pay and then walked toward the man behind the utility pole.

As the man finished sending a message and looked up, he saw Lin Mo leaning against the pole, watching him with a leisurely expression.

The man: “…”

After taking a sip of her soy milk, Lin Mo smiled and asked, “You’ve arrived quite early. Aren’t you going to eat something?”

The man: “…”

Lin Mo: “Auntie Lin’s breakfast stall is very delicious.”

The man: “…”

Having said her piece, Lin Mo turned back toward her rental house.

The man subconsciously followed her, whispering, “Little Pig… no, Miss Lin, our boss would like to meet with you.”

“Since he wants to meet me…” Lin Mo turned back to look at him with a faint smile. “Where is he?”

From the limited information available, this Miss Lin was a quite gentle and polite person.

However, it was rumored that she owed quite a bit of debt. Therefore, the boss had some intention of suppressing her spirit.

After all, the boss didn’t believe that someone who drifted through various investment firms and ended up with massive debts could truly be “docile.” Such people were either fools or overly slick.

But at this moment, looking at Lin Mo’s smile though it was as warm as a gentle breeze the pressure emanating from her far exceeded that of a boss who manipulated the stock market.

The man felt that his boss had likely miscalculated. Nonetheless, he braved the pressure and asked, “Have you heard of the variety show There is an Inn?” With a show this big, if she wanted to pay off her debts, she would surely have to make an appearance, wouldn’t she?

Lin Mo took another sip of soy milk and replied calmly, “I don’t know it. However, at least three production teams have approached me to film a variety show. It’s not as if yours is the only one I don’t recognize.” She chuckled and said very elegantly, “My apologies.”

The man: “…For our variety show, Movie Queen Su is also coming. You know as well as I do that what everyone wants to see is you and her.”

Lin Mo was amused. “Are you talking about that ‘Qilin CP’ Super Topic that only has 1,300 people?” Late last night, a fan with the ID ‘Soda Cracker’ had urgently applied for a CP fan site named—Qilin CP.

Given that she was a prominent fan, she had some influence. After the site was established, people immediately began following it, mostly fans who had been hooked since that early television live stream.

The man: “…The future is promising.”

Lin Mo: “Hard to say. Besides, how can you be sure that if I go to other shows, I’ll be the only one there?”

The man was stunned. “…You’re that confident?”

Lin Mo nodded decisively. “Yes.”

The man wordlessly took out his phone and said steadily, “…Please wait a moment. My boss is coming right now.”

Among various variety shows, There is an Inn was indeed the most famous. Although it was currently on its last legs, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse!

The main reason Lin Mo ultimately decided to negotiate with this man was that the show had announced its guest list early on, and Su Qixi was on it.

Lin Mo believed that eight years would not turn her and Su Qixi into strangers. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen this place as her final stop, nor would she have stayed for Su Qixi’s sake.

However, if she wanted to reconcile, she needed the right attitude, and her actions naturally had to follow.

After Lin Mo met with the boss of There is an Inn, she successfully signed the contract.

At the same time, the boss jokingly teased Lin Mo, saying that while there were many CPs online now, she and Su Qixi always gave off a different feeling.

Lin Mo didn’t take it to heart much, and she naturally didn’t realize just how much territory this CP would conquer for them in the future!!!

There is an Inn was a management-style variety show.

During the first season, they hired several top-tier stars. The original thought was that with the support of top stars to maintain traffic, and with guests helping each other to run an inn successfully, the show would surely stand out among the sea of travel and dating shows.

As it turned out, everyone had different management philosophies. In the end, they ended up tearing into each other on camera with veiled barbs and sarcastic remarks…

Surprisingly, however, the show still became a hit.

After all, the traffic was indeed massive. If their “idols” were being bullied, wouldn’t the fans raise hell? At that time, the show held three or four spots on the trending searches every day; the topic level was through the roof, and the ratings were considered top-tier.

However, over the past two years, the ratings had declined season by season. Openly feuding no longer held a place in today’s society. Facing the crisis of imminent cancellation, There is an Inn had changed its planning director this time, adding new elements for a “desperate counterattack.”

Considering the high pressure in modern society, shows that focused purely on fighting actually added unnecessary stress to the audience.

Moreover, in recent years, “shipping” CPs had become mainstream. Although fans scolded CP fans every day for being “fickle” and not as “dedicated” as solo fans, those in the industry knew that the CP fan community was huge—a very profitable cake.

Therefore, the director, Feng Ye, after much consideration, decided to take a slice of that pie. However, there were already many dating shows, and few of them managed to stand out. A pure dating show seemed like a step backward.

In the end, Feng Ye took a unique path: he invited several pairs of guests whose current relationships were in crisis. Of course, these relationships were not limited to romantic ones.

Thus, the new mode was to gather them together to run an inn, giving them a chance to communicate again and repair their relationships.

The second point was that with the popularity of live streaming, There is an Inn collaborated with the Doudou platform this time. They would live stream first, followed by a recorded broadcast later.

To build hype, the program started a live stream on the Doudou platform on the day the guests were to be welcomed.
