Chapter 0198

In the end, it was decided to cancel the segment where they respond to live comments.

This show has had its share of mishaps before—like the last episode with the female boss, who was drenched in sweat under the program's questioning, giving answers that made no sense at all, while her husband outright lost his temper on the spot.

Then, one live comment exposed the fact that the boss was keeping a young lover.

The two ended up in a domestic violence scene, forcing the show to be interrupted.

But those were just ordinary business owners—no big deal. Today, however, they were interviewing Luo Yao and Lin Ran, and they couldn’t afford to mess this up.

At 8 a.m., the live broadcast began.

The moment it started, hundreds of thousands of viewers flooded in, with the numbers rising at an astonishing rate.

Host: "Hello, everyone! I’m your old friend Liu Yishou. Today, we’re honored to be at the private estate of the CEO of Luo Corporation—this is also where Luo Yao and Lin Ran live."

Immediately, Luo Yao and Lin Ran’s profiles appeared on the live broadcast screen.

Live comments:

[What’s Even Real]: Holy crap! The show actually got Luo Yao and Lin Ran? For real? I thought they were joking!

[Harry Potter Fan]: This place is ridiculously luxurious. That vase by the entrance could probably buy my entire life.

Before the university anniversary celebration, very few people had seen Luo Yao’s real face. The classmates who saw her at the freshman party had their photos deleted on the spot by bodyguards.

But the last university anniversary was live-streamed nationwide, and everyone finally got a glimpse of her. Photos of her started spreading like wildfire online.

Though the footage wasn’t crystal clear—just a few seconds of video and some blurry photos—it was enough to leave countless people in awe.

Host: "Honestly, when I first arrived here, I was stunned by the sheer opulence. We’ve interviewed many celebrities and business owners before, but compared to this, those places seem almost insignificant."

"We’ll be recording here for the entire morning, and I’m sure you’re all as excited as I am. Now, let’s follow the camera into the owners’ home."

As the camera moved, the grand hall of the villa came into view. Uncle Fu gestured for them to enter.

Just that simple gesture instantly ignited the live chat.

[Not the Emperor’s Uncle]: Is this the butler of a luxury estate? This uncle is way too handsome!

[Arrogant Ultraman]: Even the maids in the background are stunning. The life of the rich is truly unpretentious.

As the crew settled in, Lin Ran walked down first and took a seat on the central sofa in the hall.

The cameraman immediately focused on him, and Lin Ran waved at the camera.

"Hey, everyone."

One of the reasons this show is so popular is that it’s completely unscripted and live—no one knows what’ll happen next.

Host: "Good morning, Mr. Lin. Where’s President Luo?"

Lin Ran glanced back toward the staircase—sure enough, Luo Yao appeared there with her usual icy expression. Once she reached the first floor and sat down, her cold gaze swept over the camera.

The two of them delivered a visual feast to the entire internet.

[Voice Ruined from Singing]: AHHHHH! Lin Ran is so handsome, and Luo Yao is so beautiful! What level of loser am I to witness such perfection?

[Attack of the Green Giant]: The show is insane! I thought the promo about filming the top tycoons today was fake—but it’s actually real?

[Love Guru]: Wow, is this the heiress of the top financial empire? She’s unreal—what kind of divine beauty is this?

[Crayon Grudge]: That aura is unmatched. No socialite can compare. Seriously, Lin Ran gets to eat this well every day? I’m jealous.

The host smiled. "President Luo, Mr. Lin, hello."

Lin Ran returned the smile. "Just call us by our names. I don’t like being called ‘President’—it makes me think of ‘edema’ or ‘cyst’ or something."

Lin Ran’s joke broke the ice, and the host relaxed a little.

"Got it. I didn’t expect you to be so humorous. Since you’re familiar with our show, did you prepare anything in advance?"

Luo Yao’s cold eyes flicked toward Liu Yishou. "I’m not familiar with it, and I don’t need to prepare."

Host: "..."

[Tang Bohu Lights Mosquito Coils]: Luo Yao’s stare is the coldest I’ve ever seen. I swear, if she looked at me like that, I’d drop to the floor and play dead.

[Stirring the Pot]: You’d end up actually dead. Don’t you know? Luo Yao despises men.

[Alpaca is an Animal]: Then how did Lin Ran win her over?

[+V for Secret Crab Roe Recipe]: Lin Ran’s looks are explosive too. They’re literally the perfect match.

[Mage Casting Spells]: Now this is what I call a true ice queen.

Liu Yishou swallowed hard. Luo Yao’s presence was overwhelming—stronger than anyone she’d ever interviewed.

It was kind of terrifying.

Lin Ran gently placed his hand over Luo Yao’s, calming her restless mood.

Even though Luo Yao had agreed to this recording, being surrounded by so many staff clearly made her uncomfortable.

Her cold demeanor was just a habit—her real thoughts might very well involve stabbing everyone here.

Lin Ran turned to the host. "Shall we begin?"

"Of course. Following the show’s format, the first segment is a quick Q&A."

The host glanced at the two of them. Seeing no objections, she continued.

"The first question is for Mr. Lin Ran. How do you feel about today’s recording?"

Lin Ran frowned. "Really? That’s the kind of shallow question you’re going with? Why not ask me what my dreams are?"

The host stiffened. She didn’t want to either, but it was the higher-ups’ decision.

Live comments exploded:

[My Readers Get Rich]: Exactly! Why aren’t they picking questions from the live chat today?

[Fifty Sky Gang]: Do you know who these two are? No one dares to let the chat decide.

[Oh My Borscht]: The show always claims to ‘keep it real’—what a joke.

The host awkwardly looked at the director.

The director frowned, but Lin Ran seemed to read their hesitation.

"Just do it like you normally would. No need for special treatment—it’s not like we’re bullying your show."

The director almost wanted to give Lin Ran a thumbs-up. He nodded at the host.

Host: "Alright, let’s move on to today’s first segment—Morning Q&A."

"Crew, get ready. 3, 2, 1—freeze the chat for a question!"

The live comments on the big screen stopped, and the first question appeared:

Can’t find the book by title? Try searching the author—maybe it was just renamed!
