Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 389 A woman who is unwilling to have your children has no intention of spending her life with you.

After hanging up with Yan Li, Shen An'an called Bing Ning.

"Sister Bing, are you going out to play again today?"

She had already made plans with Bingning to go out and have some fun.

After all, spring has begun, the scenery outside is gradually recovering, and it's not cold anymore, so it's very comfortable to go out for a spring outing.

She didn't have any other friends.

But Lin Lang is coming back, and she's worried that Bing Ning won't have time.

Bingning replied, "What's wrong? Is something wrong? If not, let's do it another day."

"No, no, I'm fine. I was just worried about Sister Bing. Well... Lin Lang is back, isn't he?"

"Huh? He's back? I didn't hear anything. Besides, his return doesn't really concern me, but it should concern you a lot, right? Don't you want to see him?"

Shen An'an quickly explained, "Sister Bing, I have nothing to do with him now. He and my cousin are already getting engaged."

"Huh? You're really going to give up?"

Bingning definitely knew about this, but she just didn't know Shen An'an's attitude.

Now, seeing her indifference to Lin Lang's return and the things she said, I immediately realized the problem.

"Yeah, if Sister Bing is going back to have dinner with Lin Lang, then let's do it another day. If she's not going back, let's go on a picnic..."

"Okay, I've got everything ready. I'll drive over to you later. Anyway, he didn't tell me, so I won't go back."

"okay."

After hanging up the phone, Shen An'an also began packing her things.

Even if Lin Lang had time today, he wouldn't contact her during the day.

She now understood that Lin Lang might not actually like her that much; he just wanted to sleep with her.

Less than twenty minutes later, Bingning called her downstairs. After she got into the car, Bingning drove towards the outskirts of the county.

"Sister Bing, you're really not going back to have dinner with him? And... who knows, he might look for you after he gets off the bus..."

Bingning laughed and said, "Then I'll leave you on the way?"

"Okay, that works too. It's not far anyway, I can just take a taxi back."

"Heh... He takes advantage of you in every way, and then he says he's going to marry someone else. Aren't you angry?"

Shen An'an quickly explained, "No, no, no, he didn't take advantage of me, Sister Bing, please don't make wild guesses."

Shen An'an didn't know whether Bing Ning was just guessing or had actually figured it out.

"Don't tell me you haven't. It's not like I haven't seen it before. You weren't so sensitive before... I've been there, after all..."

"Oh? Sister Bing has been in a relationship?"

"Otherwise what? They started dating right after high school graduation..."

Bingning couldn't very well say that she and Lin Lang had already... you know... so she had to shift the blame to another point in time.

"Has Sister Bing also booked a hotel room with someone?"

"Yes, we've done it. Who doesn't book a hotel room when they're on a date?"

"Huh? What about after we get married?"

"Either find someone who doesn't mind, or don't get married at all. But I'm different from you. I'm not worth much, and I never thought I could find someone really great. This is how my life will be. You should be more careful. Only marry someone you truly like, so you don't regret it later."

"Um... what's it like to book a hotel room?"

Although Bingning was driving, she was still lost in her fantasies, muttering to herself, "It mainly depends on whether you like it or not. If it's someone you like, then you'll really enjoy the process. If you don't like them, then you won't even want to go to a hotel with them. You simply can't accept that kind of relationship, so there won't be any feelings involved."

"Did Sister Bing ever regret it?"

"No ah."

"Oh……"

Shen An'an didn't ask any more questions after that, because she was afraid she would regret it.

Bingning waited a while and then said, "An'an, if you're afraid of regretting it, you should just marry him."

"But...I can't do it..."

"I can help you."

"what?"

……

Lin Lang didn't tell anyone else about going home except Gao Yu.

In the afternoon, we arrived in the county town, had a simple lunch with Gao Yu, and then went to the site of the 100-day survival project.

The 100-Day Survival Tournament has begun. Big Fish Media has not only created an official tournament account, but also opened an account for each participant. Their various videos are edited out every day.

Because it had only been a little over ten days, and the material hadn't been accumulated enough, Lin Lang didn't launch the marketing account matrix yet, as they needed to accumulate more material first.

The competition itself doesn't attract much viewership, since most wilderness survival shows aren't actually very entertaining and need to be edited to be interesting.

These ten amateurs, whose acting skills are generally average, could not adapt quickly enough even with a pre-arranged script, and thus could not portray their characters well enough.

For survival videos to be engaging, they either need to be sensational, emphasizing the dangers of the wilderness to keep viewers watching.

Or it's either very explicit or something quite stimulating.

None of these!
Or rather, they were all a little lacking in finesse.

Therefore, the only way is to rely on large volume and accumulation to gradually build up one's persona. Only then, when the marketing matrix accounts push the content, can it attract a lot of people to watch.

The editing of each episode's video is of paramount importance. Sometimes, if the contestants fail to capture the core essence of the performance, Big Fish Media has to manually intervene and reshoot...

Currently, the official account for the 100-day survival challenge has over 30,000 followers, while each player's account has around 10,000 followers...

Lin Lang spent several hours observing, and Gao Yu's arrangements were definitely not a problem. The coordination between each step was excellent, and the process was well-organized, so he didn't need to worry too much.

He couldn't possibly arrange all the characters to their fullest potential; he could only provide a direction, and the content would have to be filled in by Big Fish Media's own employees.

"Sister Gao, I'm going home now. I'll come back tomorrow morning."

"If you're tired, take a couple of days off. There's not much going on at the company lately."

"Okay, I'll see how it goes when the time comes."

After Lin Lang finished speaking, he called his mother and drove home.

The company has quite a few cars now, all of which are second-hand vehicles purchased from He Qiang for daily use.

He came back today not only for work, but mainly because Ms. Xu has been in a bad mood lately.

When Lin Lang returned home, Ms. Xu was already waiting for him, and she even called Lin Yuliang back as well.

"Dad, why are you back? You've been having so many social engagements lately, haven't you?"

Lin Yuliang now has not only a lot of social engagements, but also a lot of other things to do.

The town is fixing roads and bridges, and they're even advocating for building a nursing home. Plus, the county's cultural and tourism bureau appointed him as a cultural and tourism ambassador, so he has to go to the county for meetings from time to time. He hasn't driven the Mercedes-Benz that Yan Li gave him; he recently acquired a used car from somewhere.

“Your mother insisted that I come back, but when I asked her what was wrong, she just wouldn’t say.”

Ms. Xu rolled her eyes at him and said, "What's the point of telling you? We definitely have to wait until our son comes back before we talk about it."

Lin Lang walked over, sat on the sofa, and said, "Mom, I'm back now. Tell me if there's anything you need."

Ms. Xu glanced at Lin Lang and asked, "Son, is Lili pregnant yet?"

"Why are you asking this? We haven't been together for very long."

"Don't think I don't know, have you been using contraception all along?"

"Uh... I'm quite busy with work, so I'm not in a rush to have children."

"Are you so lacking in the time to have children? Besides, I know perfectly well who's really in charge."

"We're already preparing, hoping to have a child next year," Lin Lang explained.

After all, he would definitely have to say something for Yan Li, as Ms. Xu was clearly not satisfied with the progress of the two.

"Next year? January is next year, December is next year too! I've tested her several times, but she never gives a clear answer, always stammering and making it obvious that she doesn't want a child."

Ms. Xu looked very unwell.

She's not stupid; on the contrary, she's exceptionally shrewd.

At first, she was fooled by Yan Li's family background, but so much time has passed, and with He Qiang, Song Zhiyuan and others all trying to curry favor with her son, plus her understanding of the so-called Tianjin Capital, she has gradually come to realize that her son is the most powerful one.

She even thought that her son was making money for Yan Li.

There are many rumors online that Yan Li is worth billions.

All this money was earned with her son's help, and she's still not happy about having a child.

One or two months is one thing, but how long has it been? We've been together for four months.

No matter what, her belly should be showing signs of pregnancy by now, right?
Both of them are still young and healthy, so it's not like they can't have children.

Moreover, Ms. Xu has direct evidence proving that the two were using contraception.

After all, she's the one who empties the trash cans at home.

She couldn't imagine why her son needed contraception; it could only be that Yan Li had requested it.

I used to think Yan Li's family was powerful and that my family was a bit too good for them, so I didn't dare to raise my voice when she spoke.

But now, who's trying to climb the social ladder?

It's not like my son is unwanted.

Lin Lang quickly said, "Mom, don't overthink it. She wants a child, and she'll definitely give you an explanation on this matter within six months at most, okay?"

Lin Lang had a premonition, after all, his father was always out socializing, and his mother, apart from talking to the neighbors, would just call Bing Ning back for a meal, and life was becoming less and less exciting.

If you let her relax, she'll feel uncomfortable all over; if you let her go on a trip, she won't be very interested.

They weren't even very generous with money; only Lin Yuliang was.

Ms. Xu said earnestly, "Son, I'm not really in a rush to have a child. I'm just worried that you'll be taken advantage of. A woman who isn't willing to have a child with you isn't prepared to spend her life with you. No matter how good you are to her, she'll still leave in the future. Mom knows Yan Li is a good man, and he's perfect in every way, but ultimately, a life together depends on feelings. You're young now and can earn money, but what if you get older and can't earn money anymore? Won't her family look down on you then?"

"Mom, what are you talking about?"

"Where were we? It's just the family, can't we even talk about it?"

"Okay, okay, I can talk, I can talk."

"If you're too embarrassed to say no, Mom will put in a good word for you. Finding a reliable girlfriend to marry is more important than any career! Mom recently had your sister ask Teacher Li at the school, and she's interested. We haven't been rich for long, we can't just look down on her, can we?"

Lin Lang: "??????"

"Mom, I'm still hungry. How about we get you something to eat?"

"I've already taken care of it for you. Ningning will be back soon, just wait a few more minutes."

"Sister Bing is going back too? Okay."

Lin Lang wasn't really hungry; he just didn't want to continue talking about this topic with his mother.

No matter how much we talk about this topic, we won't reach a conclusion.

Anyway, it will be fine in a few months, and my mom will naturally feel at ease then.

Of course, this is on the premise that there is no problem with one's own health.

Just as they finished speaking, the sound of a car came from outside, and then Bingning walked in.

"Mom and Dad, my brother, are you all here?"

Lin Lang said with a smile, "I'm just waiting for Sister Bing, the chef, to come back. I really want to eat Sister Bing's cooking."

"That's easy. I'll go wherever you go and be your chef."

"Okay."

As Bingning spoke, she also sat down on the sofa.

Then she asked, "What were you talking about just now? Why didn't Yan Li come back with you? Mom misses her."

Lin Lang: "..."

Bingning really knows how to bring up the most sensitive topics.

We finally managed to change the subject.

Lin Lang quickly stood up and said, "I'll go back to my room to tidy up first. Call me when it's time to eat."

He'd better leave quickly; he's already said what he needed to say.

After watching Lin Lang leave, Bing Ning asked Ms. Xu, "Mom, how did it go?"

She spends a lot of time with Ms. Xu, and for the past two months, she has come back to have dinner with Ms. Xu most of the time in the evenings, so she naturally knows what Ms. Xu is thinking.

Ms. Xu sighed, "What else can we do? It'll just stay that way... I'm really afraid that Yan Li is lying to Langlang. After all, Langlang is quite honest and wouldn't be able to play tricks on a city girl. If this drags on for a year or two, who knows what might happen?"

“I think that makes sense. I’ve seen many girls who, even after getting married, aren’t interested in having children. They just see marriage as a means of support, but they don’t think about completely binding themselves to it. Once they have children, there will be too many problems.”

Hearing this, Ms. Xu frowned even more deeply.

Lin Yuliang, who was standing to the side, didn't want to hear any of this. Although he had the idea of ​​having a grandson, he wasn't in a hurry for a year or two, since he had a lot of things to do during this time.

"You two talk for a bit, I need to talk to Langlang about something..."

After saying that, he left the living room.

Ms. Xu couldn't help but blurt out, "Now that his son has a bit of status, he doesn't even know his own surname anymore. He's not worried at all about his son's marriage prospects, nor is he afraid that his son will be scammed..."

Bingning quickly put her arm around Ms. Xu's shoulder and said, "Mom, Dad has always been like this. Now that he finally has something to do, don't worry about him. I'll come back to keep you company whenever I have free time, and I promise I won't let you be lonely."

"What about your brother..."

"Mom, actually I know a girl who's really innocent, but I've always been worried that she'll cause trouble for Langlang, so I haven't told her... Shall I show you her picture?"
