Stop pretending, the fake heiress is actually a master of metaphysics.

Based on my years of experience watching Shen Nian's live streams, Master Shen must have seen something.

[Is there really something behind Mu Sinian?]

What nonsense are you talking about? My brother is perfectly fine.

Shen Nian just wants to get our brother's attention and create a CP (couple pairing) with him!

[...Is the person upstairs alright? Creating a CP (couple pairing) with a male celebrity actually lowers Shen Nian's status quite a bit.]

Have you ever seen a sugar daddy's mom eagerly trying to create a romantic pairing with some nobody in the entertainment industry? It's laughable.

[Isn't Shen Nian just a minor internet celebrity? If she were that amazing, why would she need to be an internet celebrity?]

Go check on Tianyancha (a Chinese business information platform) to see who the chairman of xxx company is. You're welcome.

Some netizens skilled in using search engines found Shen Nian's assets and companies.

Although Shen Nian never mentioned it, and most of the viewers of the show were not from wealthy families, the company information was publicly available. If you paid attention, you could find out what businesses she owned.

Wow, this company's market value... how many billions is that?

[I know this company; it's a leader in the jade industry... Is Shen Nian really that capable? I've never heard her mention it before.]

To put it bluntly, in the entertainment industry, any big boss who dislikes a minor celebrity can easily be sidelined with a single word. Master Shen is genuinely quite good-natured.

Are you saying someone worth hundreds of billions is going live on variety shows to amuse me? Then I'm really too...

The comments section was noisy and chaotic.

Off-camera, the guests are introducing themselves to each other.

The host, a capable and beautiful woman with many years of hosting experience, smiled and said, "Hello everyone, I am Xu Wu, the host of the 'Supernatural Online' program. I will now lead you into the first episode of the three-day, two-night recording."

"Our program will be broadcast live throughout. When completing group tasks, each guest will have their own live stream camera, and viewers can choose to watch their favorite guest."

"Next, please follow me into the recording location of this episode—the burned-down opera house."

As the host finished speaking, the six people, each carrying their own suitcases, followed her into the theater.

The theater is quite old.

It is said that it was refurbished a few years ago and the burned seats were replaced, but for some reason it was never put back into use.

Perhaps it's because opera is such a niche hobby in the country that it's difficult to cultivate.

It's also possible that some... supernatural beings and monsters really do exist.

Shen Nian looked around the theater.

Before the guests arrived and filming officially began, the production crew had already cleaned and set up the filming location.

However, traces of smoke and fire from many years ago can still be seen on the walls of the theater, and although the sun is shining brightly outside, the entire theater is still quite dim.

The host drew back the curtains on the first floor of the theater, which provided excellent blackout, and the interior became slightly brighter.

Zhang Xiaoling asked, "Are we sleeping here tonight?"

The host nodded: "Yes, during filming, everyone will need to stay in this theater. As for where you'll stay, you can choose to sleep on the floor on the first floor, or there's a dressing room backstage. However, I still recommend that you sleep on the floor in the theater, since the dressing room backstage is a bit...gloomy?"

At this point, the host deliberately lowered his voice, making it sound eerie.

Zhang Xiaoling shrank back in fear.

"Your first task is to split into pairs and explore the theater before nightfall, looking for clues left by the production crew and piecing together the truth behind the fire."

Mu Sinian asked, "Does that mean we have other tasks tonight?"

Host: "The mission is a secret."

"Alright, everyone, let's form groups. Do you want to form your own groups or draw lots? To ensure your safety, the principle is that each celebrity must be paired with a sorcerer."

Upon hearing that they had to team up with ordinary people, the two young celebrities, who were initially quite excited, suddenly became a little deflated.

After all, the most famous and popular person in the show is Mu Sinian.

Whoever teams up with him will gain a huge amount of traffic.

Who wouldn't be tempted by that?

But the production team's argument also makes sense.

They are a paranormal exploration program in their own right. Although they use the name of a program, everyone signed a risk informed consent form before participating in the recording.

Participating in this program means you might actually see some... unusual things, and you might actually get hurt.

Traffic is important, but so is my life.

"How about... we draw lots?"

The host also prefers to draw lots.

After all, their show has no script, and it wouldn't look good if things got messy with who chose whom and who didn't.

The host, who rarely takes on a show without the hassle of elaborate editing, cherishes this hard-won opportunity for peace and tranquility.

Three slips of paper, each bearing a name and twisted into a long, thin tube, were handed to Shen Nian and the other two.

Shen Nian casually picked up a cigarette and unfolded it.

There is a character "慕" on it.

She frowned almost imperceptibly.

Hu Die drew Zhang Xiaoling, and Meng Yang drew Xie Shi'an.

He looked a little disappointed that he didn't draw the celebrity his girlfriend liked.

Hu Die didn't really care; she wasn't particularly interested in humans in general. However, to maintain a friendly image, she stepped forward, took Zhang Xiaoling's hand, and the two chatted and laughed as they prepared to begin their exploration.

Shen Nian glanced at Mu Sinian indifferently, waved to him to follow, and turned to prepare to go to the stage and backstage to look for clues.

Mu Sinian raised his eyebrows and silently followed Shen Nian.

I thought it would be a mixed-gender group.

[Hahaha, is this supposed to balance yin and yang?]

[Shen Nian's group is so awkward, nobody's saying anything.]

[Actually, it was pretty awkward in all of them. Only the group with all girls was slightly better. Why did the production team bring in six blockheads?]

[Never mind, for my brother's sake, I have no choice but to join this group.]

[Actually, Mu Sinian is usually quite talkative; it's mainly Shen Nian's problem.]

[Why is it Shen Nian's problem again? She was diligently searching for clues, and now there's trouble again? Are you guys alright?]

[Perhaps Shen Nian's aura was too strong, and Mu Sinian didn't dare to speak?]

After all, if these netizens could find the information, Mu Sinian... shouldn't be unaware of it, right?

[Oh, that makes sense. If I had a billionaire boss standing next to me who could decide my life or death at any moment, I wouldn't dare to speak either.]

Alright, alright, let's call this pair "President Shen x Movie Emperor".

[Anyone who randomly ships couples is out.]

Why are there so many couples shipping each other everywhere?

[President Shen's beauty needs no explanation.]

If this were said to any other female celebrity in the entertainment industry, the comments section would probably be flooded with criticism, saying that the female celebrity is unworthy of being a mere internet sensation.

But unfortunately, the object of his affections was Shen Nian.

Even if Mu Sinian's fans are arrogant, they won't dare to challenge him this time.

She was afraid that if she angered her brother, he would lose his job.

The comments section, however, was strangely harmonious.

The harmonious atmosphere was somewhat unsettling for the director and producer, who were used to bloodshed and violence.

However, they considered the Shen family, the Gu family, the Special Administration Bureau, and even the Ministry of State Security behind Shen Nian...

Indeed, neither of them are easy to mess with.
