Entertainment industry + variety show + mystery solving + comedy + livestreaming + ordinary contestant
A short-tempered, slow-witted mystery fanatic × an even-tempered, tsundere entertainment mogul
Song Zhu, a mystery game content creator, is invited to take part in a major competitive mystery-solving variety show.
She expects a feast of clever deductions, but it turns out to be a showdown of the stars' acting skills.
Before filming even begins, Song Zhu lays hands on the mogul's egg, then offends a middle-aged host who's full of himself.
On the first day of filming, she scores the highest by far, making herself everyone's target.
On the second day, someone shows up to pick a fight. With nothing to lose, she stands up to a popular young actress and gets into a fistfight with a male star.
She sticks firmly to her principle: “If you insult me, I insult you back. If you hit me, I hit back.”
The mogul, who moonlights as Song Zhu's keeper, is at his wits' end. “A gentleman uses words, not fists.”
Song Zhu agrees one second, then gets into another fight the next.
The mogul: “I can't hold her back. There's just no holding her back.”
After the show airs, Song Zhu and the mogul become a popular celebrity-and-ordinary-person ship. Then a paparazzo claims the two have been together for a long time.
Song Zhu tells her followers, “We're just coworkers. Please don't pry into my private life.”
The mogul posts dozens of heartbroken messages throughout the night.
An influencer tries to ride Song Zhu's popularity by inviting her to a livestream battle, hoping to embarrass her. Unexpectedly, a mysterious person appears and showers Song Zhu with gifts worth tens of thousands.
Later, netizens discover that the mysterious person is the mogul.
Netizens: “We're shipping them!”
Song Zhu: “Do I have to pay you back, boss?”
The mogul: “...”
It was both exciting and frustrating to watch. 💕
