I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

The weather today is good.

Last night's downpour seemed to have thoroughly washed the sky, and today the sky over Mihai is an unbelievable blue, with fluffy white clouds hanging low and close, as if you could reach them by standing on tiptoe.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty, damp scent, was just right—neither too hot nor too cold.

Before setting off, the three girls began taking various sun protection measures—Xia Ziyi was meticulously applying sunscreen, while Xu Anan was putting on arm sleeves.

Tian Xiwei then took out a "mini fire extinguisher".

She pressed the showerhead, as if she needed to extinguish some raging fire, and sprayed herself on her face and arms with a carefree and unrestrained manner.

A white mist suddenly rose, enveloping her completely, before quickly dissipating in the wind.

Cheng Che didn't understand what he was seeing, but he was deeply shocked.

Tian Xiwei caught his gaze and blinked.

Then, without giving him any chance to react, she turned the sunscreen spray around and aimed the nozzle directly at him.

"Close your eyes," she said.

Cheng Che subconsciously closed his eyes and held his breath.

"Sizzle—"

Tian Xiwei pressed the showerhead, and the cool, fragrant white mist instantly engulfed Cheng Che's head completely.

The intensity was so great that even the most seasoned smoker, who could smoke twenty cigarettes in a row, couldn't match it.

A cool and soothing sensation immediately enveloped my cheeks, followed by a faint, gentle lemon scent that filled my nostrils.

Hmm, this aroma... it seems familiar. I think I vaguely smelled it yesterday when I was selling figs.

"How is it? Isn't it cool?" Tian Xiwei asked with a smile.

Cheng Che subconsciously raised his hand and poked his face. It felt cool and smooth, and the temperature of the sun seemed to drop suddenly.

"Fire extinguishers are really powerful; they can not only put out fires but also block out the sun," Cheng Che thought with admiration.

"This is sunscreen spray, not a fire extinguisher," Tian Xiwei said, baring her teeth.

"Okay, okay, where did you buy this fire extinguisher? It smells nice," Cheng Che continued to ask.

"I already said it's not a fire extinguisher!" Tian Xiwei wrinkled her nose, then quickly blinked. "Right, right? I also think this brand smells really good."

"Do you want to buy it? I can give you the link. This bottle costs a little over a hundred yuan," she said.

"Then forget it, you shouldn't refuse." Cheng Che was shocked.

Mini fire extinguishers are selling for more than traditional fire extinguishers? That's ridiculous!

"Why? If you want some, I can give you some!" Tian Xiwei said generously.

She kept a bag of sunscreen spray in her room.

"No need for that," Cheng Che politely declined. "Even if you gave me a hundred bottles, the end result would probably be that I'd forget to use them when I go out, and they'd just pile up until they expired."

That makes perfect sense.

[That makes sense. It's clearly a fire extinguisher bottle. Do you think I wouldn't recognize it if you called it sunscreen spray?]

[That makes sense. What guy would spend over a hundred yuan on a fire extinguisher? That's enough for ten meals of braised chicken at the cafeteria!]

[That makes sense. What guy goes out carrying a fire extinguisher? He'd probably carry a can of soda instead!]

[This is completely illogical! I'm so fed up with you straight men! Are there even any real people in this live stream?]

[It turns out that boys' and girls' brains work very differently.]

"I can remind you," Tian Xiwei said.

"?" Cheng Che was taken aback.

"That works too. Remember to let me use your sunscreen spray whenever we're recording the show," he said.

Xia Ziyi was still applying her sunscreen, while Xu Anan put on her arm sleeves and watched the scene peacefully.

"Where are we headed now?" Cheng Che asked casually.

"We checked some travel guides and found an old street nearby. We'll take a taxi there to explore in the morning," Tian Xiwei said.

The "we" here refers to her, Xia Ziyi, and Xu Anan.

"You're running to Plum!"

Because of the PD who was filming them, the four of them hailed two ride-hailing cars on the roadside.

Xu Anan quickly pulled Xia Ziyi into one of the cars, while Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei naturally sat in another.

The PD who was filming sat in the front passenger seat, while Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei sat in the back.

The ride-hailing car drove smoothly on the wide road in Mihai, and the scenery outside the window gradually changed from the green trees and red tiles of the villa area to the open coastline.

Tian Xiwei's dark eyes darted around as she began to think about how to extract useful information from Cheng Che.

First, she thought that Cheng Che was chosen by the program team, and the production team specially gave her this hidden task, asking her to find Cheng Che's pen name.

Therefore, it can be concluded that Cheng Che, as an online novel author, must be at least well-known within the online novel circle, and most likely has a very famous work.

However, since Zero is known to be the youngest Black Gold writer, he should be in his forties, so Cheng Che obviously cannot be a Black Gold writer.

So, what are the next levels of writers below Black Gold writers?

She took out her phone and searched online, discovering that below Black Gold Writers and above Level 5 Writers, there was a Great God Writer.

Writers at this level are generally less experienced than Black Gold writers, but they often have at least one "masterpiece"...

Tian Xiwei immediately perked up. If nothing unexpected happened, Cheng Che should be a "master" writer.

Hmph... She glanced at Cheng Che with a hint of smugness, thinking to herself, "You're finished. I'll expose your true identity soon!"

"Why are you looking at me?" Cheng Che noticed her gaze and asked curiously, "Is there something on my face?"

"No." Tian Xiwei shook her head, then blinked innocently. "Can I ask you a question?"

"If you don't ask about my pseudonym," Cheng Che said.

"I'm not asking about pseudonyms, I'm asking about something else," Tian Xiwei said. "Do you have a really great novel in the online literature world?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Che's body trembled, and his gaze became serious.

Seeing his expression, Tian Xiwei smiled and felt a surge of joy in her heart.

"No," Cheng Che denied.

"...?" Tian Xiwei's upturned lips fell back down.

No!?

He doesn't have a single great novel?!

But how is that possible?

Without great novels, Cheng Che couldn't possibly be a top-tier author. If Cheng Che isn't a top-tier author, then doesn't that mean she guessed wrong from the start?

Could it be that... Director Wang chose Cheng Che simply because he valued his appearance and Mo Yin's academic background, rather than his popularity in the online literature circle?

Director Wang...did he undergo gender reassignment surgery?

[Huh? Cheng Che doesn't even own a decent novel?]

[That shouldn't be the case... If there wasn't a wildly popular novel, why would that old bastard Wang Zheng have prepared such a hidden quest?]

[Thinking about it another way, could it be that Cheng Che has some really great novels, but he's just using linguistic tricks...]

【you mean……?】

Seeing Tian Xiwei's ever-changing expression, it was Cheng Che's turn to smile.

How ridiculous! You think you can get your way out of my information? Don't even think about it!

I don't actually have a novel that's considered very successful in the online literature world.

Because I have two books...
