“Director Li, Director Li!” Ah Nan’s voice was gleeful. “Come drink some pork ribs… pork rib soup that doesn’t have ribs! It’s waiting for you!”

Li Jianyu was helpless. “I don’t have time, Mr. Ah Nan. Please do not bother me.”

‘This feather duster has no sense of boundaries; they don’t even have a venue for the variety show anymore, yet he still had the heart to eat at such an imminent moment.’

On the screen, half of a girl’s delicate and fair face appeared as she spoke with a soft and calm tone. “Director Li, you don’t look so good, have you eaten lunch?”

“…”‘Both the artist and her manager only care about food?!’

However, he knew that the two had good intentions. He tiresomely rubbed his brows. “I’m just gonna buy some take out or instant noodles in a bit. I have to find a way to fix the venue and find a suitable location in the countryside…”

Xiang Yi: “‘Two Under One Roof’ is based on a lifestyle theme, right?”

“That’s right.” Li Jianyu didn’t understand. “What’s going on?”

Xiang Yi continued, “It needs enough land to grow flowers and vegetables, as well as space to raise fish and to cook, right?”

Li Jianyu: “That’s right. Those kinds of rural plots are very popular right now. Young people in the rural areas might not even have farmed before, let alone young adults in the city. Anyway, are you asking about this?”

Xiang Yi: “Who says you have to go to the countryside to farm?”

“Huh?”

Xiang Yi pointed to the direction behind her house. In the softest voice, she managed the tone of a rich woman.

“My house has land, a pond, and a farm. Come film here.”

Li Jianyu stared at the endless vegetable fields and shaded farmland. At this moment, he truly realized what it meant for life to turn around—at the brink of life and death, to come back against the wind!

In a few days, “Heartbeat” had become popular even before its broadcast, and the level of discussion regarding it had far exceeded that of “Two Under One Roof”.

Muyao TV was overjoyed at the recent ups and downs. They were starting the broadcast tomorrow, but everyone seemed to have already locked in their quarterly bonus in advance.

Director Chen, who was in charge of filming, was flushed with success: everyday he walked into the headquarters as if he was walking on clouds.

“Morning, Director Chen.”

“Good morning, Director Chen.”

“Director Chen, you look very dashing today!”

As Director Chen enjoyed the compliments from the passers-by in the elevator, he couldn’t help but feel smug and complacent.

Ding—

The elevator doors opened, and he headed into his office.

The compliments had disappeared and were instead replaced by strange looks.

He noticed something was off. Pausing, he turned to an employee near his office. “What happened?”

“D-Director Chen…”Two Under One Roof” sent out a Weibo announcement a few minutes ago saying they’re going to go live at 9:30 a.m….”

“What? There’s no way!”

How could a variety show without a venue be launched?

“It should be true… When I saw the post, Shi Yingdi had already shared it.”

Director Chen snatched the phone from his hands, the screen still paused on the Weibo post.

[Shi Sui V]: shared Weibo @[Two Under One Roof V]: “Two Under One Roof” will go live today at 9:30 a.m. for the first time! Don’t miss it! Beep! Put on your seatbelts, we’ll be taking off with @ShiSui Shi Yingdi!

Today was Saturday. As soon as the promotional account released the broadcast link, the viewer count had broken 10,000.

Director Chen’s expression was sour. He looked at the time. It was April 29th today, 9:27 a.m.

No…

“Heartbeat” hasn’t started streaming yet, so why is “Two Under One Roof” going live ahead of time?!

How dare they? How could they?!
