I put you on a dating reality show, but I didn't make you a viral sensation!

The two sat on the rocks for an unknown amount of time until a staff member couldn't help but come over and remind them, "Teacher Lin, Teacher Jiang, the other groups of guests have almost all arrived. Shouldn't you head back?"

"Okay, we'll be right there."

The two returned the way they came, and when they arrived at the Heartbeat House, all the other guests had already arrived.

Many of the female guests looked exhausted.

Upon seeing Jiang Muxue and Lin Zhou return, everyone unanimously assumed that their group was in last place.

After all, they were the last to return.

but……

The assistant director quickly began announcing the rankings.

"First of all, congratulations on completing all the check-in tasks on the map. Now, I'll announce the rankings."

"First of all, the fourth place is Lin Jianwei and Jiang Yi."

Upon hearing this, all the other guests in the room were filled with question marks.

That can't be right, weren't Lin Zhou and the others the last to arrive?

Jiang Yi's expression was rather unpleasant; he hadn't expected to be in last place!

Just as everyone was wondering what was going on, the assistant director began announcing the next rankings.

"Third place: Shen Jiashu and Xia Wanxing."

"Second place: Lu Xiao and Su Man!"

Now, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue.

No, these two are number one?

What kind of operation is this?

The assistant director's next words confirmed everyone's suspicions.

"First place—Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue!"

After the assistant director finished speaking, he added, in a rather devastating way, "In this Heartbeat Map Challenge, Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue, who came in first place, were a full half hour ahead of Lu Xiao and Su Man, who came in second place. They truly deserved their victory."

"Everyone, let's give them a round of applause!"

"Clap clap clap".

After the applause, the assistant director handed the two Hearts of the Coast to Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue in turn.

The guests inside were still looking on in astonishment. Lu Xiaoshuai asked curiously, "No way, you two! The last one to come back is actually number one? How did you do that?"

"After we finished, we strolled around the neighborhood for a while."

"So that's how it is."

"Amazing!"

"No, we were just lucky."

After some pleasantries, today's activities have come to an end.

Lin Zhou glanced at the time; it was already past six o'clock. He estimated that even if he started cooking now, it would be done by eight or nine o'clock.

Since it's not his turn to cook today, he might as well go back to the dorm and take a shower first.

The other guests shared the same idea.

"I'm so tired, I was sweating all afternoon."

"I feel like I can't feel my legs at all."

"All I want to do right now is go back to my room, take a hot shower, and rest in bed for a while."

"Me too."

"Is it Jiang Yi's turn to cook today? I'll head out now!" Lin Jianwei raised her hand to rub her sore calves and called out to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi was sitting on the sofa. Upon hearing this, he quickly covered his phone, which was still playing a cooking tutorial. He looked up at the female guests and gave them a gentle smile: "Well, it's my turn. Everyone can go and rest first. I'll call you in the group when I'm done."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Teacher Jiang."

"Everyone's pretty tired today, so Teacher Jiang, don't go to too much trouble. Just make something simple!"

"Yes, yes, keep it simple, Teacher Jiang doesn't need to work too hard."

Everyone clearly still remembered the terrible meal we had yesterday at noon, but they still spoke very politely to each other.

Jiang Yi clearly understood the unspoken meaning behind their words.

His expression was a little stiff, but he still maintained his persona, nodding and replying, "No problem, everyone go back and rest first."

He has just come up with a solution.

If he can't do it well, can't he learn?

If all else fails, just make something simple: boil noodles.

It saves time and effort, and even if you make a mistake, it won't taste too bad. It allows you to maintain your image without having to cook a huge meal, perfectly solving all the problems.

He felt incredibly smart.

Jiang Muxue greeted Lin Zhou and went straight back to her dormitory; Lin Zhou didn't seem inclined to stay.

Although he didn't quite believe in Jiang Yi's cooking skills, he didn't want to stay and do hard labor, so he left as well.

After watching the other guests leave one by one, Jiang Yi confirmed that only the cameraman was left in the living room with the camera set up at a distance. He then turned off the microphone on his collar, slipped into the bathroom next door, and locked the door.

After watching a cooking tutorial for a while, he finally made up his mind to make noodles.

These things can't be learned overnight.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something, opened his call log, and called his agent.

"Feed".

"How was my popularity during the afternoon live stream?"

"It's alright, a bit more stable than yesterday. The footage of the people checking in still had a little bit of traffic, so overall it's not bad."

"What about the live stream's popularity? Where do I rank?"

The agent hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "Third place."

Jiang Yi frowned: "Then who are the top two?"

"Xia Wanxing is second."

Jiang Yi nodded. Xia Wanxing was more famous than him and had more fans, which was normal.

"So who's number one?"

"It's Lin Zhou's live stream."

"What?"

"It's Lin Zhou's live stream. Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue's popularity is almost two or three times higher than yours, which is a huge lead among all the live streams."

"No, how is this possible?!"

Jiang Yi found it hard to believe.

How could so many people watch Lin Zhou, an ordinary guest?

Even if Jiang Muxue is beautiful, it doesn't have to be like this, does it?

Hearing his tone, his agent couldn't help but give him a word of advice, "Why don't you showcase more of your skills? Didn't you study vocal music before your debut? Give a performance and bring your popularity back."

"understood."

Jiang Yi's expression was somewhat gloomy.

One of the lucky guests was even more popular than him!

This was somewhat difficult for him to accept.

......

On the other side, after taking a shower, Lin Zhou did not rush back to the Heartbeat House.

He dried his half-dry hair, picked up his phone from the bedside table, and wanted to watch the variety show videos that the production team had posted on the platform.

But perhaps because his hands were wet, he accidentally scrolled to his own homepage.

The numbers above surprised him.

In just a few days, his followers have already grown to over 60?

You should know that in today's internet age, as long as you know how to monetize, two or three hundred thousand yuan is enough to live on without having to work.

If you reach over a million followers, then you can be considered a relatively big internet celebrity.

At this rate, it's only a matter of time before he breaks the million mark.

He browsed around curiously for a while and saw that the backend message section was covered with a dense array of small red dots. He couldn't resist clicking on it to take a look.

Then... he turned off his phone without any expression.

Goodness, 60 followers, 50 of them must want to kill him! This treatment is unparalleled.

The name "Lin Gou" is one he can never truly erase.

After drying his hair, he sat on the bed again.

By the way, I wonder how many emotional points I've accumulated throughout the day?

On a whim, he opened the system panel.

Holy crap.

The numbers above made him exclaim in surprise again.

[Host's current emotional value: 387649]

Current cumulative sentiment score: 487649/1000000.

In just one afternoon, the system's emotion points increased by more than 20?

Lin Zhou checked the numbers twice more, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up in a smile.

It's obvious that these emotional points were contributed by the lovely viewers in the live stream.

The system also issued a reminder at this time:

[Host's emotional value has reached 30. Three beginner lucky draws have been unlocked. Do you want to draw now?]

Looking at the golden turntable that appeared in front of him, Lin Zhou had an idea and decided not to wait until night, so he confirmed it directly.

"Draw immediately!"

He was somewhat expectant.

This is his first time drawing in a row. I wonder if the system will give him anything good?
