Chapter 524

Yanjing

Xicheng District

Night is falling, but the entire city is only just now welcoming its true pleasure.

The neon-lit overpasses are bustling with heavy traffic.

It is like a revolving lantern, dazzling to the eyes. This is the city rhythm that belongs exclusively to Yanjing.

The eighth season of Chinese Restaurant has also adopted the format of a live online broadcast.

There is no other way; ever since several of Lin Yu’s variety shows became massive hits, other programs have begun to follow suit one after another.

When in poverty, one must seek change; if they still adhered to the recorded format, they would eventually be eliminated.

So this time, on one hand, Huang Xiaoming invited Lin Yu to increase the show's popularity.

On the other hand, he also wanted to learn from Lin Yu and see how a live-broadcast format program should achieve its variety show effects.

At the same time.

When the internet heard that Lin Yu was going to bring Liu Liu Haocun and Yu Yu Shuxin to join Chinese Restaurant as guest stars, it immediately caused an uproar.

"Holy crap! What is Lin Yu doing? His lifelong reputation is about to be ruined in the hands of these 'little fairies'."

"He's confused, Brother Yu is truly too confused. The Douban rating for Chinese Restaurant is only 5.2; this performance is at the very bottom of variety shows. It gets worse every year, and now they are completely living off the show's old brand name. There is simply nothing worth watching."

"Exactly! Lin Yu, you are at this level of status now, are you still short of this little bit of money? Your greed is showing too ugly."

"Damn, why did this show invite Liu Liu Haocun and Yu Yu Shuxin? In the entertainment industry, these are the two girls I find most annoying. One has no emotional intelligence, the other has no brains. It's over, this show is completely ruined."

"I'm completely speechless. This guest lineup is truly disgusting! Lin Yu coming is like serving a Michelin-star gourmet feast, but seeing this pair of bitches, Yu Yu Shuxin and Liu Liu Haocun, is like eating swill. It makes me want to vomit."

"Inside information: it was actually Lin Yu who brought these two people onto the show."

"I get it now. Both Liu Liu Haocun and Yu Yu Shuxin are rich girls. Lin Yu bringing them on the show must be to lick the boots of capital."

"I didn't expect this! Even the thick-browed and big-eyed Lin Yu has fallen. It seems that in the face of money, everyone has to bow their heads."

"......"

In the camera shot.

An SUV pulls up in front of a bus.

Huang Xiaoming and the show's resident Chef Lin take out luggage from the trunk one after another.

"Brother Xiaoming."

"Congratulations! The Golden Rooster Best Actor award is well-deserved."

"Hahaha, you are quite good at finding people! You actually managed to book Lin Yu."

Yin Zheng pokes his head out from the bus with a grin.

He hurriedly gets off the bus to help the two of them carry their suitcases.

"Sigh! Lin Yu was invited, alright."

"But he brought two little troublemakers along with him."

Huang Xiaoming sighs heavily, feeling quite emotional.

"It's fine. Anyway, our show's ratings are already at the bottom, so why care about a few haters?"

"The primary task is to get the ratings up first."

Yin Zheng pats Huang Xiaoming on the shoulder to comfort him.

"That is indeed the logic."

"Hello."

On the other side of the bus, the other chef invited by the production team nods politely to the group to greet them.

Guang Tan is a genuine foreigner; although he is from France, he has stayed in China for over ten years. His Mandarin is very standard, and he even carries a bit of a Beijing accent.

"Chef Guang Tan, Chef Lin, Old Yin."

"I don't need to say much."

"Lin Yu is one of our own. As for those two girls, everyone should yield to them where possible. Their backgrounds are not something we can afford to provoke."

Huang Xiaoming bites the bullet and says this upfront.

He wants to avoid any conflicts later that might affect their domestic careers.

There is no help for it; working in the entertainment industry, you are basically abroad, but you still have to mind the ways of the world.

Yin Zheng, Chef Lin, and Guang Tan all nod heavily, knowing the two girls who arrived are rich kids. Their expressions are somewhat restrained.

However, the next moment.

"Hurry up, are you two turtles?"

"Do you have any shame, making others wait for us?"

"Is this it?"

"And you claimed to have experience surviving abroad."

"I really don't believe it."

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Following a burst of sarcastic, mocking sounds.

Lin Yu appears on the scene, looking sharp in a crisp casual suit.

The few men are each carrying one or two suitcases.

One for daily necessities, one for a change of clothes.

The focus is on simplicity and convenience.

Yet behind him, Yu Yu Shuxin and Liu Liu Haocun look completely disheveled.

The two girls each have at least four or five suitcases.

And these suitcases are both large and heavy.

The two girls are struggling to push them.

Their temples are covered in dense beads of sweat.

But because of the bet made beforehand,

The two girls can only suffer in silence, unable to voice their grievances.

"Xinxin, Liu Haocun."

"Come, let us help you with your luggage."

Huang Xiaoming’s heart skips a beat, and he hurriedly steps forward with a smile.

He thinks to himself that Lin Yu is truly brave!

Whenever others see these two young ladies, who doesn't nod, bow, and scrape?

Looking at Lin Yu, he not only refuses to help but stands on the side making snide remarks and criticizing them wildly.

"No need, Brother Xiaoming."

"They can do it themselves."

"No one forced them to bring so many suitcases."

"This is called reaping what you sow."

Lin Yu directly raises his hand, blocking Huang Xiaoming and the others who wanted to step in and help.

"I brought them here to suffer, not to enjoy themselves."
