Chapter 83: Love Variety Show Strategy System (1)

Xie Ang was woken up by the heat.

Opening her eyes, she found herself lying on a bohemian-style hammock with tassels hanging down.

Not far away was the vast, blue sea, white seabirds flew past singing "Ooo-ooo," and the sea breeze carried a salty, fishy smell, blowing until one felt drowsy.

As the sun moved west, the branches and leaves of the coconut trees couldn't block the intense light, and a part of her body was sun-baked, no wonder she was woken up by the heat.

Xie Ang propped herself up on her elbows from the hammock, moved to a parasol a few meters away, sat down on a lounge chair at will, unscrewed a bottle of iced coconut water that had long since lost its coolness, and drank a few gulps, only then smoothing out the dry, itchy, and irritable feeling in her throat.

Afterwards, she leaned back on the lounge chair, squinting her eyes to receive the task requirements and character background about this world sent to her by the Main System.

On this plane, the Golden Finger she had to recover was the "Love Variety Show Strategy System," owned by Xie Danni, who was the older sister of the body Xie Ang was wearing, born of the same father but a different mother.

Although born of the same father but a different mother, Xie Danni had never acknowledged the original body as her younger sister.

This was because the original body's mother, Xu Yiyun, couldn't even be called a mistress; she was just a junior schoolmate who had secretly loved Xie's father for many years. After graduation, she applied to the Xie Group and became Xie's father's secretary. Once, taking advantage of Xie's father drinking too much at a social event, she took the initiative to stick to him, and became pregnant with the original body in one go.

After discovering she was pregnant, Xu Yiyun didn't make a scene, but low-key resigned and left the Xie Group.

She first returned to her hometown in the southern mountain area, where the environment was good and the air was excellent, but her family didn't understand her behavior of being pregnant out of wedlock and insisted that she abort the child. Losing face was secondary, but what would she use to raise it if it were born? Giving birth without raising was even more despised.

But she didn't listen, insisted on giving birth to this child, simply fell out with her family and moved out, cutting off contact with her family.

She hoped to give birth to a boy, so she would be a great contributor to the Xie family, and maybe she could even replace Xie's mother and sit on the throne of Mrs. Xie.

Xu Yiyun thought very proudly, but helplessly, what was born was a daughter, and she didn't inherit her beauty at all.

On one hand, she was extremely disgusted with this daughter, and on the other hand, she used this child to extort high child support from Xie's father.

Xie's father wasn't a stingy person. Learning that he had a relationship with his secretary after getting drunk once and letting her have his child, even if he didn't like this pair of mother and daughter, he still gave enough child support that should be given.

But this money, less than one-thousandth was spent on the original body, and the bulk was taken by Xu Yiyun to squander.

So much so that the original body always thought her family was very poor.

From childhood to adulthood, for any self-funded activities and courses, she would not sign up if she could, and would not participate if she could.

Let alone learning dance, learning musical instruments, and attending various tutoring classes like children from other families.

Just like this, she reached fifteen years old—

Xu Yiyun died suddenly because she smoked an electronic cigarette with excessive toxins at a birthday party of her little sisters, and the underage original body was taken home by Xie's father.

Her personality was introverted and sensitive, and she immediately perceived Xie's mother's dislike and even disgust for her, and Xie Danni, who was three years older than her, was also full of hostility toward her.

But she was still underage at that time, her mother had passed away, and she only knew her maternal grandmother's family was in the southern mountain area, but they hadn't been in contact since she was born, so besides relying on Xie's father, this guardian, she had no other way.

Thus, she hoped to turn eighteen early; once an adult, she could move out and live.

But sometimes, she couldn't help but think: also being Xie Junyi's daughter, why could Xie Danni be a young lady willfully, while she was like an orphan living under someone else's roof.

Why!

Even if she turned eighteen, she wouldn't move!

She would live here, and she wouldn't give up a single step of the family property that should be hers, just to anger the mother and daughter.

Just like this, on one hand, she was inferior and self-pitying, and on the other hand, she secretly competed with Xie Danni, living with endurance and hardship.

She didn't perform well in the high school entrance exam or the college entrance exam, and didn't want to go abroad, always feeling that once she left the country, she would have even less of a foothold in this family.

So in her third year of high school, she spent a lot of money to hire a gold-medal tutor, learned some vocal music basics and dance moves at the last minute, and was admitted to a domestic second-tier art school at the tail end.

It was just that she didn't inherit her birth mother's beauty, and Xie's father's high-bridged nose and deep-set eyes genes weren't given to her either; at best, her skin was relatively fair.

Although there was a saying that "fair skin covers a hundred uglinesses," the entertainment industry never lacked beauties.

With plain facial features, no matter how fair and tender her skin was, no talent scout took a fancy to her.

Fortunately, over these years, she had saved up all the pocket money Xie's father gave her. Although she couldn't compare with Xie Danni, she still had fifty thousand per month, and over seven years, she had saved four million, so she didn't count on relying on her major to eat.

This time, not knowing which nerve of Xie Danni's was stuck, she actually invited her to go on a love variety show—"Romantic Cabin."

This variety show was recorded by five pairs of male and female guests in a romantic house, recorded for a total of twenty-one days, which was three weeks.

The guests recorded each other's interactions and feelings from nothing to something through daily contact, fun games, one-day dates, and other activities. Outside the camera, there were four love observers who gave analysis and guesses regularly to see which pairs of guests would successfully hold hands in the end.

The original body couldn't guess Xie Danni's purpose and didn't want to come, but Xie Danni invited her in front of Xie's father. Xie's father was happy to see the sisters getting along harmoniously, and happily let her come together, saying that it wouldn't be bad for the sisters to go on a variety show together to play.

She had no choice but to come.

The recording hadn't even lasted three days, and she was not only isolated by the female guests led by Xie Danni, but also often ridiculed and mocked by Xie Danni in corners outside the camera.

Just half an hour ago, the original body was blocked again by Xie Danni in a restroom without cameras, and was humiliated by her in an extremely vicious tone:

"Do you really have no self-awareness? I let you come and you really came? Don't you know how ugly you look yourself?

"Ha! Do you know how the netizens in the livestream room are evaluating you? They say—you're a toad that has never looked in a mirror, yet you dream of being a swan just because you're standing among a flock of them! Hahaha..."

The original body was so angry that her head was dizzy, and she didn't care that she was still on the show, raised her hand and gave Xie Danni a slap.

She didn't want this scene to be seen by the male guest Lu Ming who was passing by the restroom. He rushed over in a few big steps, pushed her away fiercely, and then gently and protectively helped Xie Danni leave.

The original body was angry and sad. If it were another male guest, it would be fine, but Lu Ming was the idol she had admired since her student days.

Over the past three days, her heartbeat vote every day was cast for Lu Ming without hesitation.

This made her unable to accept it, and she ran out covering her face, heartbroken.

Curled up in a corner of the garden hammock, she thought more and more sadly, thinking of her unspeakable life experience, thinking of the helplessness of being isolated after coming to this program, thinking of the disgusted and disdainful eyes of the male guest she admired, thinking of...

Maybe she inherited her mother's fragile heart and lungs, and couldn't catch her breath, actually dying suddenly.

The original body didn't figure out Xie Danni's purpose until death, but Xie Ang knew it clearly—

The Love Variety Show Strategy System bound by Xie Danni was to collect the resentment value of female guests, exchange for props to strategize male guests, and thus obtain beauty value, talent value, luck value, etc., making her more and more beautiful and more and more lucky.

And the original body's resentment value was the easiest to collect, because she originally had intricate resentment emotions toward Xie Danni. With a little stimulation, she could welcome the resentment value to explode, and collecting it couldn't be easier.

Plus the original body's appearance was plain, the most inconspicuous among the five female guests. Standing together with Xie Danni, who had outstanding appearance and was good at applying scheming makeup, she was a proper green leaf matching a red flower, posing no threat at all, and could also sell a wave of goodness in front of Xie's father, achieving multiple goals at once.

Xie Ang also knew that Xie Danni was the planner of this love variety show and also the investor.

Because the bound "Love Variety Show Strategy System" had to be carried out in a love variety show program to exchange for the beauty value and luck value she wanted.

So she planned this program, invited the male guests she was interested in, and also invited the original body who could let her collect resentment value quickly.

The other few female guests were popular guests selected by the program team through netizens' feedback.

【The Love Variety Show Strategy System is binding with Xie Danni. I have tried, and it cannot be forcibly stripped for the time being. We can only wait for the favorability value of the strategy object to drop to 0.】

【During this period, Host, you must not fall for Xie Danni's provocation. Otherwise, she can use your resentment value to continuously exchange for items and increase the favorability of the strategy targets. Once favorability reaches 85, it will automatically convert into love value. Love value can be used to exchange for even more items. In short...】

The Main System kept nagging Xie Ang not to be like the original body, being stimulated to the point of resentment value soaring, benefiting Xie Danni.

Xie Ang sorted out the context and asked curiously: "Since it's because there is a bug that I came to recover it, then what is the bug of the Love Variety Show Strategy System?"

Main System: 【... Cough, forgot to set a certain parameter threshold. This led to the binder being able to exchange for various props to strategize various men with the help of endless resentment value, finally making all men in the world have favorability toward the binder. Once the favorability value breaks 90, they will be obedient to her. To put it seriously, it is even more powerful than a demon concubine who brings disaster to the harem.】

Xie Ang thought about that scene, it really was...

All men in the world were guests of the same woman, and the world would be in chaos if it wasn't already. ===== CHAPTER 84 =====
