After completing a series of quick transmigration missions, Yu Xixi finally returned to her own body.
As soon as she woke up, she learned that her agent had booked her, a minor actress, on a dating-and-survival variety show called "Explore If You Won't Date."
With the principle that only an idiot turns down easy money, Yu Xixi readily agreed, determined to laze around and pocket the 600,000 yuan.
However.
Why had no one told her that if she failed to get matched with a male guest, she'd be thrown into a haunted house, a castle, or a seaside cave?
And no one could answer her question: why had the targets from her previous quick transmigration worlds turned into ghosts waiting for her in those places?!
I'm done for! I'm done for!!
It's just dating, right? She'd throw herself at them! She'd date them!! She had to successfully go on a date with one of the male guests!!!
After the first episode of the bizarre variety show "Explore If You Won't Date" aired, the looks-obsessed viewers were all getting along just fine online.
But after the second episode, fans of every guest were up in arms!
"Why is Yu Xixi staring at my guy with her eyes twitching like that? That's so out of line!"
"Yu Xixi's fall was way too deliberate. My one-year-old cat can act better than she can!"
Amid a torrent of criticism, Yu Xixi and the male guests who had also failed to get dates headed off together to the exploration "hot spots."
In the haunted house, Yu Xixi became a ghost-hunting master and resolved the paranormal phenomena there.
Paranormal investigators rushed to give her their approval.
In the castle, Yu Xixi turned into an escape-room expert and rescued guests trapped in dangerous situations all over the place.
A descendant of vampire hunters said they were willing to award her a lifetime achievement medal.
At the abandoned seaside property, Yu Xixi skillfully grilled seafood while keeping a tank full of rare fish alive.
A marine researcher, moved to tears while eating barbecue, immediately urged Yu Xixi to change careers and go into research.
The more the viewers watched, the more something seemed off. Why had a perfectly good dating show turned into a paranormal adventure show? And why was it... actually pretty good??
"Wait, my favorite, please stop throwing yourself at Xixi. If she says yes, how am I supposed to watch her catch a chandelier with her bare hands?!"
"Movie star, you already have so many female fans. Could you stop flirting with Xixi? I want to see her pull off a daring rescue!"
"CEO, please focus on your career instead of my Xixi's cooking, okay?"
"Professor, please tone down the way you're looking at Xixi. You can't take her back to the lab! She has all of us fish to take care of!"
"Add one for being a fish in Xixi's pond."
"Add 10,086 for being a fish in Xixi's pond!"
The dating show ended.
Viewers who still wanted more planned to crowdfund a new series called "Yu Xixi's Adventures."
But the project fell through.
That day, a big shot posted on Weibo:
"No. I won't let my treasure risk herself again. @Yu Xi"
Many one-sided crushes, male lead comes in installments, one-on-one romance, happy ending
