I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

Zheng He quickly advised, “Don’t be so desperate! Think about your family, think about all the money you still have at home, and the girl you like!”
Xu Mu couldn’t give up on himself; otherwise, he would be finished too! He was still waiting for Xu Mu to take him out!
Instead of helping, Zheng He’s advice made Xu Mu want to die even more.
His family didn’t care about him, and the family’s assets would all belong to Xu Nianying in the future. That meant if he ever wanted money, he would have to go through Xu Nianying, who would definitely not care for him.
As for the girl he liked… because he was too poor, she rejected him even before he could confess his feelings.
What’s the point of living such a miserable life!
Xu Mu was determined to end his life, while Zheng He desperately tried to stop him.
So one who didn’t want to die and one who didn’t want to live started fighting.
…
Jiang City.
After going solo, Chen Xixi rented a one-bedroom apartment.
She initially wanted to rent an economical place, but her agent, Li Jia, suggested renting somewhere with a good environment where the residents were not so mixed.
Otherwise, being a female celebrity living alone could be dangerous if targeted by people with bad intentions.
The upscale community also had comprehensive privacy and security protections.
Chen Xixi thought it made sense and then moved into this apartment, which was much more expensive than she had anticipated.
Today, with no work, she lay on her bed scrolling through her phone when she suddenly remembered that Zheng He hadn’t contacted her since he went abroad.
Could that kid have been scammed again?
Didn’t she tell him to download the anti-scam app?
Hopefully, he wouldn’t be that unlucky.
Especially since she was still waiting for Zheng He to stir up trouble for Xu Nianying and the Bai Family.
Chen Xixi was hesitating whether to contact Zheng He when wealthy Aunt Zhen called her.
“Xixi, do you have time to have a meal together? It’s just our family this time, no one else.”
Through several meetings and learning from the frugal variety show, Ms. Zhen grew more and more fond of Chen Xixi—well-mannered, intelligent, pretty, and particularly sharp.
But there was one thing that made Ms. Zhen slightly concerned.
Right now, her son was deeply smitten, but Chen Xixi seemed to not have much affection for her son.
Just fostering their relationship wasn’t enough; the romance needed to deepen!
Otherwise, when would she be able to hold her grandchild!
After Ms. Zhen’s call, Zhou Jinyuan immediately called, “I’ll pick you up tonight for dinner.”
“Your mom just called me.”
“I just talked to her, and we’re discussing things.”
Chen Xixi was taken aback, somewhat slow to respond, “So soon? Is this okay?”
Zhou Jinyuan’s lips curved slightly: “She figured it out last time we dined, it’s hard to hide. This time, I want to formally bring you home for dinner as my girlfriend.”
No wonder Ms. Zhen sounded exceptionally radiant on the phone.
Radiant as if she finally managed to marry off her son who has been on her hands for many years.
“Alright.”
Chen Xixi was about to hang up when the doorbell rang.
She had just moved here two days ago; besides Li Jia, nobody knew she lived here, but she needed an access card to use the elevator, and Li Jia didn’t have one.
So, who could be knocking?
Chen Xixi suddenly remembered the incident last night where she had sent Xu Nianying and those bosses in the small hall.
Xu Nianying couldn’t be so angry that she planned to come over for revenge, could she?
Chen Xixi stood up cautiously and walked to the door, peeping through the peephole before she saw a familiar face.
She hurriedly opened the door and saw Zhou Jinyuan standing in front of her with a cellphone.
Chen Xixi hung up the phone, curiously looking at Zhou Jinyuan: “What are you doing here? How did you get up here?”
Zhou Jinyuan tilted his head slightly and jerked his chin towards the door on the left: “Meet your new neighbor.”
A smile playing on his lips, he put the cellphone into his coat pocket, then raised his other hand, extending a bag towards Chen Xixi.
He said, “Please take good care of me from now on.”
Chen Xixi glanced in the direction Zhou Jinyuan indicated, seeing the door on the left half-open and piecing together what he said…
It seems Zhou Jinyuan bought the neighboring apartment specifically to become her neighbor.
She looked back at Zhou Jinyuan and the item he was handing over.
Inside the nearly white, translucent bag, there was a perfectly square box, followed by the gradual spread of a sweet cream aroma, likely some type of cakes or desserts.
Chen Xixi smiled as she accepted it: “No problem, but you have to remember to bring some nice treats over every day since your neighbor has a big appetite!”
Zhou Jinyuan laughed at Chen Xixi’s teasing: “Sure, come over to my place when you have time, and you can pick whatever treats you want.”
After Zhou Jinyuan finished, Chen Xixi suddenly thought of something, squinting her eyes, she asked: “How did you know I live here?”
She hadn’t had the chance to inform Zhou Jinyuan about her move.
Zhou Jinyuan: “Li Jia is your agent and also an employee at Nanxing Entertainment, I’m the boss of Nanxing Entertainment, it’s not hard to know about the company’s artists.”
Actually, Zhou Jinyuan learned about Chen Xixi moving out of her dorm unintentionally, all thanks to Lu Wenling’s blabbermouth.
Chen Xixi was concerned about paparazzi taking pictures secretly, and Zhou Jinyuan rarely got a chance to pick her up because of this.
This is perfect, now that he moved next to Chen Xixi, there’s no need to make up excuses to meet.
As long as Chen Xixi is home, they can meet anytime.
Chen Xixi looked at Zhou Jinyuan guardedly: “Li Jia isn’t your spy, is she?”
Zhou Jinyuan stated truthfully, “In terms of work, you could say a spy, but personally, I’ve never interfered. You’re my girlfriend, and I’m not a psycho monitoring everything about you.”
He would give her enough personal space in life, and ensure every path in her career is well paved.
“That reassures me.”
If a man is too controlling, Chen Xixi would think of running away.
Because usually in TV dramas, this kind of behavior is called a sickly possessive love; although thrilling, engaging with such a person can lead to an extremely unhealthy relationship, and for the sake of one’s mental and physical health, it is not advisable to commit.
Chen Xixi then asked, “What do your parents like? I’m thinking of preparing some gifts.”
Zhou Jinyuan smiled: “I have prepared everything, you just show up.”
Around four o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Xixi had Zhou Jinyuan head to the underground parking lot first, then she tightly covered herself and got on the car ten minutes later.
Fearing the paparazzi might take photos.
This time, they didn’t eat at the Zhou Family home but went to a hotel instead.
When Chen Xixi entered the private room and saw Jin Cheng there, she suddenly froze.
This silly young master who goes hungry for three days out of nine has actually become her family!
Although she already knew the truth from Zhou Jinyuan, facing this reality still required some time to accept.
Mrs. Zhen, the rich madam, warmly smiled and spoke up: “Jinyuan, quickly introduce your girlfriend to your sister’s family!”
Zhou Jinyuan introduced Chen Xixi to the couple sitting next to Jin Cheng: “My sister Zhou Nansi, and my brother-in-law, Jin Beisen.”
When introducing Jin Cheng, Zhou Jinyuan said without changing his expression: “This one… not familiar.”
Jin Cheng: “…” Okay okay okay, I should be under the table, not on the table.
Zhou Nansi was also stunned when she saw Chen Xixi coming in; wasn’t this the daughter-in-law she approved of? How did she become her brother’s girlfriend?!
Seated in the main seat, Mrs. Zhen saw Jin Cheng not speaking up, she quickly said: “Jin Cheng, aren’t you going to call your Little Aunt?”
