Chengye thought about it for a moment and nodded. “Alright, leave this to me.”

Yuexi heaved a sigh of relief. Chengye’s promise was much more straightforward than she had expected.

This was all thanks to the fact that Qin Yang’s stock price had soared, which made Chengye take a liking to the benefits.

That night, Jiang Xun started a livestream in her dormitory. She’d already finished eating dinner, but there was a pile of snacks on her table, which she’d been nibbling on all the while. The snacks looked delicious, which made the fans crave for some.

[I wanted to lose weight, so I tore open a bag of Bugles.]

[Good thing I have some duck jerky with me.]

[Am I the only one who thinks duck jerky sucks?]

[The more I watch you eat, the more I want to cry. I’m gonna order takeout.]

[It’s so late at night. Jiang Jiang is too evil.]

[It’s no fun just eating. How about watching something, JJ?]

When Jiang Xun saw this comment, she said, “Alright then. Do you guys have any recommendations?”

[Yes! Season two of “The Other Half’s Law” is a love story. It has already aired three episodes.]

“Is that so?”Jiang Xun turned on her tablet. “Which platform is it being broadcast on?”

[Star Client TV.]

And so, Jiang Xun opened Star client TV’s homepage, where she immediately saw a lot of recommendations for various genres of shows.

She nodded. “Alright, then let’s have a watchalong today with everyone.”

Spicy JJ: [Sure, let’s watch the show together and while we have dinner!]

Since Jiang Xun had never watched it before, she started watching it from the first episode.

There was an advertisement before the episode started. Upon seeing the Gu Corporation and Jiang Chengye’s sponsorship appear at the beginning, Jiang Xun raised her eyebrows.

Then, the host came out and introduced the guests, which were all single people. They were then asked to discuss matters of love between men and women from a single point of view.

The Gu Corporation was actually the overall champion of this program.

“Then, let’s see who has come to the villa!” the host announced excitedly.

The scene switched to the exterior of the villa, showing a girl getting out of the car.

Jiang Xun took a look and saw that it was actually Jiang Yuexi. Was Gu Xiaoze actually willingly letting her participate in a variety show about romance?

Yuexi entered the villa and first familiarized herself with the environment. Not long after, the first male Guest arrived.

Jiang Xun took a look and almost did a double take.

Wasn’t that Gu Xiaoze?

She didn’t need to look twice to know that the two of them were definitely going to be a couple.

However, the more she thought about it, she felt that something was wrong. In puzzlement, she let out a hiss and looked up a fan wiki for “The Other Half’s Law.”

Old Wang next door: [What? What’s wrong? Why’s JJ looking at a wiki?]

In the meantime, Jiang Xun was staring at the screen, her head full of questions. “The setting of this program is to let single men and women who don’t know each other live together in the villa, get to know each other, and choose the member of the opposite sex that they like, right?” she asked.

[Yes, the choice is a two-way street. The highlight of the program is that Woman A likes Man B, but Man B may like Woman C, and Woman C may like Man A. Until the end, no one will know which pair will successfully become a couple.]

[The most exciting part is the scheming between four men and four women. For the sake of the other half that they like, they engage in scheming and even arGue with their love rivals.]

Jiang Xun asked, “Then how can there be a real couple? Is it a new setting for this season’s show?”

She had never seen the first season. In fact, it would be better to say that this was the first time she’d ever watched a dating show.

She was surprised that humans in this world would film just about anything. They could bring together young men and women who did not know each other and did not have any basis for love, and they could pair up people that had only met a few times and did not know much about each other, not to mention how the people on the show could scheme against each other to get the person they wanted.

Of course, Jiang Xun also knew that after the program ended, the couple in the program would most likely end their relationship as well and wouldn’t continue past that. There was more or less an element of acting involved in the program.

However, Jiang Xun still admired the program director and plan.

Jiang Jiang Shredding: [That’s not it. The main focus of this program is that the guests don’t know each other, so it’s impossible for there to be a real couple. If there is one, they can just participate in a reality show for couples. They wouldn’t fit the theme of this show.]

Super Sweet JJ: [Are there any real couples here? Do you know any of them, JJ?]

Jiang Xun didn’t say that she knew them, but only said, [The two guests who just appeared are Gu Xiaoze and Jiang Yuexi. They’re childhood sweethearts and have been together for a long time. The parents of both parties have acknowledged their relationship.]

Milk Candies: [Wow! This is going to be a good show to watch! The two of them are very popular actually—the most popular couple in this show.]

Spicy JJ: [Yes, yes. They said that the two of them went in opposite directions and decided on each other from the moment they met. I was wondering why that happened, and it turns out that they’re an actual couple.]

Dan Dan: [Aren’t they lying to the audience? They are clearly a real couple. They have known each other for a long time, and even their parents have seen each other before. They even acted as if they were not familiar with each other during the show. It was as if they had nothing to talk about.]

Split Underpants: [They are here to fall in love at the public expense.]

Not all of the people who came to Jiang Xun’s livestream room were fans. There were also many other netizens who were curious about her livestream, among which was a group of viewers who were attracted by the recent episode of “Accelerated Flight.” They were curious about what Jiang Xun’s livestreams looked like, so they came to take a look.

Therefore, some netizens posted the words Jiang Xun said in the livestream on Weibo.

“The Other Half’s Law” was a very popular love story at the moment, and it had many fans. If it weren’t the case, Jiang Yuexi and Gu Xiaoze would not have been able to attract a wave of fans with this program.

The Gu Corporation and Jiang Chengye were both benefiting from this.

It wasn’t long before Jiang Xun’s words were posted and quickly started trending. Even the term “Jiang Xun’s livestream” had also gone viral.

Naturally, fans of the Gu Xiaoze and Jiang Yuexi coupling weren’t going to take this lying down, so they all went to Jiang Xun’s Weibo to cuss her out.

[What’s wrong with you? Do you want to be famous that badly?]

[This show has nothing to do with you. Why are you freeloading on its popularity?]

[You’re not famous, yet here you are piggybacking on the show!]

[You said that Gu Xiaoze and Jiang Yuexi have known each other for a long time. They are a couple in private, and the shows are all staged. Where’s the evidence? Show me the evidence!]

[You make it sound like you know Gu Xiaoze and Jiang Yuexi. But look at you, a small Internet celebrity. How can you possibly know the young master of the Gu Corporation?]

[This rumor of yours is very serious. It might even affect the show. I advise you to apologize quickly, or the production team will come after you. Gu Xiaoze and Jiang Yuexi will send you a lawyer’s letter together.]

[You also know that they were childhood sweethearts? Did you hear it while hiding under their dining table?]

There were even people who sent private messages to insult Jiang Xun. Some extreme fans even photoshopped pictures of her, making her look as if she’d been decapitated.
