Chapter 2: Chicken Brother sheds eggs, and I

~5 min read 991 words

"Knock, knock, knock"

"Lin Yu, time to get up."

Outside the hotel room, a burst of urgent knocking sounded, and then several staff members carrying cameras pushed their way into the bedroom.

Lin Yu, who was slowly waking up, saw this scene and scratched his head, feeling a bit dazed.

Are these colleagues trying to kill me?

However, when Lin Yu got up and saw himself in the lens, he was completely dumbfounded.

Subsequently, memories began to flood in frantically.

In his previous life, Lin Yu was an editor for Keep Running, thinking he could just slack off and drift through life as a salted fish.

But who would have thought that the sudden "Chicken Brother shedding eggs" incident would drive the Keep Running production team crazy, especially the blow to the editing team, which was simply devastating; nearly a million frames of video had to be photoshopped to remove any shot containing Chicken Brother.

The production team also made their attitude clear: they wanted to make an episode of "The Vanishing Him" without a sound.

However, before Chicken Brother could vanish, Lin Yu vanished first, dying from overwork after 48 continuous hours on the job.

When he opened his eyes again, he had soul-transmigrated directly into the body of a young traffic idol in a parallel world.

He replaced Chicken Brother's position as a regular guest on Keep Running.

Damn it!

This works too?

Lin Yu looked at the guns and cannons (cameras and microphones) in front of him and his incredibly familiar colleagues, and his heart skipped a beat.

Just in that instant, Lin Yu had an epiphany: in this life, no one is going to make me work overtime, not even for a minute.

As the saying goes, money earned by slacking off is real money; anything that requires trading your time and labor is, at best, an equivalent exchange.

"Lin Yu, it's your turn to execute the mission."

Director Yao handed Lin Yu a mission card and then reminded him.

Mission Card: The plan for the day lies in the morning; go wake up the other Keep Running members!

Lin Yu glanced at his phone and the dim morning mist outside the window, yawned, and felt no interest.

Then he lay straight back down and covered his head with the quilt.

Whoever wants to go can go; I'm not serving!

Just as he was about to open his mouth to refuse,

【Ding】

At this moment, a metallic chime sounded in Lin Yu's mind.

【Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the "Eye-Catching Bag" selection system.】

【Complete the mission to receive generous system rewards.】

Hmm?

Eye-Catching Bag system?

In his previous life, Lin Yu often read various novels, so he was naturally no stranger to transmigration and rebirth.

So, as long as I complete the mission, I can get rewards?

【System mission released.】

【Choose to knock on Bai Lu's door like a gentleman to wake her up; increase Bai Lu's favorability +1.】

【Choose to wake Bai Lu up via phone; reward: expansion of WeChat friend limit.】

【Choose to wake Bai Lu up in an "eye-catching" way; reward: God-level acting skills.】

I choose the third one!

Lin Yu didn't hesitate for a second; it's not some dating sim game, favorability is useless, and the WeChat friend expansion is even more of a chicken rib.

"Whoosh"

Having made his decision, Lin Yu threw off the quilt and jumped out of bed.

"Let's go."

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lin Yu couldn't help but nod secretly; if nothing else, this young idol's looks are truly top-tier.

According to the memories in his mind, this young idol has an astonishing background, with plenty of capital support behind him.

In this circle, it's not just about looks; you need the appreciation of powerful benefactors. Many extra actresses are even better-looking than many female stars, yet they struggle until they're thirty without getting a good role. This circle isn't something you can succeed in just by working hard.

Lin Yu washed up simply, put on a white shirt and casual shorts, fully displaying his sturdy and well-defined physique.

Just as Lin Yu was preparing, the production team was secretly laughing.

Actually,

All of this was being broadcast in real-time to the TVs in every regular guest's room.

It was called a mission for Lin Yu, but it was actually a prank, and Director Yao had specifically told everyone not to open the door for Lin Yu to maximize the show's effect.

To give Lin Yu a unique, unforgettable meeting.

"Don't worry, Director."

"Never mind Lin Yu, even if my mom and dad came, I wouldn't open the door for them."

"Hahaha, we'll just watch Lin Yu's social death scene here."

Bai Lu and Song Yuqi were also in a hotel room, swearing with their little fists clenched.

Both were surprised to see Lin Yu for the first time; they had seen many stars in the entertainment industry, but someone with such an incredible bare-faced look like Lin Yu was truly rare.

With messy hair, bright eyes, and white teeth, he looked aloof when not smiling and gentle and warm when he did, completely crushing those sissy-like young idols of the same type.

"He's really handsome! When I was a trainee in the ROK, I never saw an artist this handsome."

Song Yuqi looked at the TV screen, somewhat dazed, pursing her lips as her throat moved.

"Sister!"

"Don't you go soft now."

"We've already said it; you absolutely cannot open the door for him."

Bai Lu had just come to her senses; she had seen Lin Yu in videos before, but seeing him for the first time was still a surprise.

"Impossible."

"No matter what he says, we cannot open the door for him."

"Let him go find Li Chen and Sha Yi."

Song Yuqi pouted and pointed at the room opposite, where Li Chen and Sha Yi were. ===== CHAPTER 3 =====
