My Top-Tier Star Childhood Friend Asked Me to Make Up the Numbers, but Ended Up Shocking the Whole Internet

The nationally popular outdoor livestream variety show Around the World is about to start filming when one of its regular guests suddenly gets caught in a scandal.

With the show on the verge of being canceled, rising top-tier star Tian Xier panics and drags her childhood friend Lin Ye, an “unemployed drifter” fishing by the river, onto the set. “Director, my friend is cheap and reliable. Let him fill in!”

Fans across the internet gang up on him, cursing Lin Ye as a freeloader who lives off women.

Lin Ye is happy to take it easy. He only planned to earn a bit of appearance money and carry on with his retirement after clearing the System's missions.

But as the show's challenges grow more and more outrageous, things start taking a strange turn...

During an intangible cultural heritage challenge, a wooden carving he casually made is whisked away by a nationally renowned master, who arrives by helicopter in the middle of the night to beg him to become his teacher.

Performing on a street overseas, he borrows a violin and casually plays a tune. The world's leading music maestro floods the livestream with ten billion in gifts, begging him to come out of retirement.

Then come the supreme god of online fiction, the hidden power broker of a financial conglomerate, a peerless doctor...

As one max-level secret identity after another, each powerful enough to shake Blue Star, is exposed,

Tian Xier stares at Lin Ye, whom powerful people around the globe are worshipping on camera, completely dumbfounded. “I thought you couldn't even afford rent!”

Lin Ye spreads his hands helplessly. “I've already collected every top title there is. What else can I do but retire?”

Viewers across the internet flood the comments: [You call this living off women? He's the grandmaster of all humanity!]
