After hesitating for a few seconds between choosing one of the options and giving up and accepting the punishment, Ning Xiaoyu still ended up choosing.

She, a salted fish who exuded a salty smell all over her body, was suitable for playing some insignificant small roles, as for the female lead of an urban dog blood Mary Sue drama, forget it, forget it.

The standard features of Mary Sue dramas were running away with the child, misunderstanding, resolving misunderstandings, misunderstanding, resolving misunderstandings once again…… When she used to watch these dramas before, Ning Xiaoyu always wondered whether the two protagonists didn’t find all the fuss a trouble?

Thinking so, Ning Xiaoyu reluctantly chose C. Of the three options, only C was barely worth a look.

A was impossible. She’d be the first to be X’ed off.

As for B…… In the morning, she said that she, Ning Xiaoyu, would keep her mouth shut. She absolutely wouldn’t say anything about what happened last night. She wouldn’t go back on her words. Since this was the case, the only option left for her was C.

Ning Xiaoyu coughed lightly, readying to praise the movie king loudly.

The love system was so excited that its eyes were shining. Here it comes, its sugar! Its growth could only be maintained by relying on the sugar produced by its CP.

When Ning Xiaoyu coughed, the others subconsciously turned their eyes toward her.

Ning Yuwei asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong, Teacher Ning?”

Did she feel that there were too many people there and it was affecting her ability to find Lu Jingdu?

Upon hearing Ning Yuwei’s voice, the person approaching immediately stopped in his tracks. When the man turned around and was about to leave, he heard a clear and somewhat lazy female voice reply behind him, “Actually…… I grew up watching the movie king’s works. His movies have accompanied me for many years. Among them, his role as a second-generation rich guy who indulges in comfort has allowed me to establish the right outlook and has had a significant impact on my life. In this sense, the movie king is really like a mentor to me.”

Give praise √

Hearing this sudden compliment, everyone was stunned for a few seconds.

Shen Yueyue said in a daze, “This compliment of yours is quite unique.”

【Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter. The most memorable character for Xiao Yu is the rich second-generation who indulges in comfort?】

【I discovered the anchor’s salted fish nature!】

【So that’s the object of your envy, right? Squinty-eyed grin.jpg】

【The movie king has so many classic roles but you only mentioned the rich second-generation?】

The love system couldn’t hold back anymore, it said with a bewildered expression, 【The movie king has only been in the industry for three years, how did you grow up watching his movies?】

Ning Xiaoyu slowly said, “I’ve grown from 20 years old to 23 years old. This is also growing up.”

If the love system had a hand, it would have been scratching its head right now. 【Then…… then you didn’t establish your three views^[1]one’s worldview, values and philosophy on life until you were 20?】

Ning Xiaoyu rested her chin in one hand. “Can’t I? I was too rebellious in my adolescence that my outlook in life wasn’t fully established.”

【Then…… is three years considered many years?】

Ning Xiaoyu unhurriedly answered, “Human beings are different from you systems. Three years is indeed not a short period.”

The love system looked skeptical.

This……

The host chose C and did as requested…… It just felt like something wasn’t quite right.

The love system still had no idea that at this time, it was bound to the most unconventional host in its history— someone not entirely under its control, nor act exactly as the system imagined, and someone who has a distinct personality— in other words, a unique salted fish.

In fact, Ning Xiaoyu wasn’t lying. Whether it’s Lu Jingdu himself or the ‘rich young master’ role played by him, her ultimate dream was to be like them.

Be rich and free. She could live well by lying around doing nothing.

That was definitely her ideal life.

Ning Xiaoyu successfully completed the task and got one love value. It wasn’t too difficult.

She was somewhat pleased.

As for the one who heard the sincere praise, he chuckled and left before others could notice him.

After completing the garden task, Ning Xiaoyu had nine friendship coins in her pocket.

At noon, she ate a boxed lunch priced at four coins. It contained meat, vegetables, and soup, a good balance of nutrition. She still had five friendship coins left which was enough for dinner.

So the salted fish went on strike in the afternoon.

Ning Yuwei didn’t continue following Ning Xiaoyu. She probably also knew that doing so was useless, so she simply gave up and prepared to find another way to meet Lu Jingdu.

Ning Xiaoyu was enjoying herself.

Over the past two days, most of the guests have become familiar with each other and were divided into groups.

Ning Yuwei was close to the top star Xu Cheng, the second-line actress Mu Jiajia, and the pretty boy Ling Zige, so the four of them always huddled together.

The movie king had been doing things on his own since the show started, however, he’s a big celebrity, so no matter what he does, fans would say it was fine.

Another group included the well-known filmmaker, the supermodel, and others. But Ning Xiaoyu didn’t pay much attention to them as they had little to no interactions with each other.

The other guests took up their tasks and went out. Ning Xiaoyu didn’t want to stay in her room, so she found a deserted place near the villa, moved a deck chair, and prepared to lie down.

However, she didn’t know if it was because the place was windy or what, Ning Xiaoyu felt that the wind was too strong and wasn’t comfortable in her position.

A salted fish was the type of person who paid the most attention to self-enjoyment. She could be poor to the point of eating dirt, but she mustn’t sleep uncomfortably. As one knows, sleeping could be a great treat.

So she stood up from the recliner, about to find a place nearby where she could sleep comfortably. Maybe she should go back to her room and get her sleeping bag.

That’s right, that’s how well-equipped she was.

Ning Xiaoyu wandered all over the left side of the villa but couldn’t find a particularly suitable place, so she planned to look on the right side to try her luck.

If there really wasn’t any, then she could only go lie down in her room.

Just then, however, she caught a glimpse of a surreptitious person who was wrapped up all over and was climbing over the wall, seemingly trying to come in from outside.

Ning Xiaoyu instinctively asked, “Who are you?”

The other party was startled when he/she heard Ning Xiaoyu’s voice, and seeing that his/her whereabouts had been discovered, the other party immediately stopped climbing over the wall, turned around, and stumbled away.

Ning Xiaoyu frowned, feeling that the situation was wrong. She didn’t go to sleep anymore and came straight back to the villa to tell the staff about it. The staff immediately went to investigate the surveillance camera. After discovering the traces of a suspicious individual, they immediately reported to the police.

By the time the other guests had completed their tasks and returned to Friends Lodge, they too immediately heard of the matter.

The popular actress, Xi Rui, was instantly unhappy.

“What’s going on? Why is a suspicious person appearing near the villa? Didn’t you say this place is very safe?”

The staff immediately apologized sincerely and said that they would strengthen the security.

However, Xi Rui clearly wasn’t buying it.

When it was time for dinner, the director walked up to Ning Xiaoyu excitedly and said, “Thank you, Xiaoyu, for the matter today. If it weren’t for your strong vigilance and continuous checking around the villa, that suspicious person would have managed to sneak in.”

Ning Xiaoyu was stunned. She wanted to say that it wasn’t that she was vigilant, she was just lazy and wanted to find a comfortable place to sleep.

But the rest of the staff didn’t give her a chance to speak at all.

“Teacher Ning is really amazing. If it wasn’t for Teacher Ning, it was unknown what would have happened.”

“Thanks to Teacher Ning, we discovered this issue. We will never make similar mistakes next time!”

“We called the police and after the preliminary investigation, they found that the suspicious person was an obsessed fan who tried to sneak in to take private pictures. Which exact star’s fan, it still needs further investigation.”

“If Teacher Ning didn’t scare that person away, there could have been a big mess today.”

The director gave a final word, “Xiaoyu, you’ve made a great contribution today. How about this, the program team will reward you with three big meals. In addition, you can ask the program team for anything else you want.”

Ning Xiaoyu shook her head, “I don’t need anything else at the moment.”

The director said, “It’s fine, let me know when you think of one.”

After the director left, Shen Yueyue looked at Ning Xiaoyu with admiration. “How did you think of checking the villa’s surroundings? I was reassured about the crew’s security and thought that this place was absolutely safe. I didn’t expect that my vigilance is still too weak, unlike you. The program team’s security has such a big flaw that an obsessed fan almost got in!”

Ning Xiaoyu opened her mouth, but Shen Yueyue couldn’t help praising again, “We’re safe today thanks to you, Xiao Yu.” If an obsessed fan had managed to sneak into her room, no matter if they hid under the bed or in the closet, it would be enough to scare her to death.

Even if it’s not her obsessive fan but another celebrity’s, if that person hadn’t been discovered, there would still be a victim.

Ning Xiaoyu was so salty that she was numb. She tried to explain twice but didn’t have a chance.

In fact, she was really just trying to find a comfortable place to lie down out of laziness. However, the way she looked here and there, to the eyes of others, was as if she was wary and looking for a flaw in the security.

It has to be said that this was really a wonderful misunderstanding.
