Transmigration as a Female Supporting Role Who Attempted Suicide

Chapter 14: Variety Show



Chapter 14

Receiving the link sent by He Yi, Ji Nian clicked on it with a mix of excitement and unease. As an ordinary person, she was about to participate in a TV show, which was quite thrilling to think about.

To be honest, she was afraid because she had never been involved in this kind of profession before. However, in order to help the original owner of her body repay debts, she decided to swallow her pride. If only she could return to the real world...

But for now, she thought it best to focus on solving the current problem: repaying the debt.

After taking a quick look at the content of the link, she realized that the variety show was about going to a rural area to complete tasks and experience life.

This show wasn't particularly popular, as it featured mostly faded celebrities. However, He Yi hadn't revealed the specific details or the identities of the participants. It was kept confidential.

It's no wonder they approached her for the show. Cheng Li Ran, the A-list idol and her ex-boyfriend, had been trending frequently. They probably wanted her to boost the show's popularity.

Time was running out. The show was set in a mountain village, and she would be a guest parachuted into the program. Since she didn't have a company, she had to arrange transportation herself. She added the person in charge on WeChat, and he sent her the address.

She packed her luggage quickly, taking only two sets of clothes in addition to what she was already wearing, making a total of three outfits. The weather was hot, so it would be convenient to change clothes. She didn't bring much else, just some travel-sized toiletries and a charger.

Her suitcase wasn't even full. She grabbed the smallest one and picked up her keys, ready to head out.

She bought a high-speed train ticket, which would take two hours, followed by a two-hour bus ride. Ji Nian couldn't help but marvel at how convenient it was to have navigation in this day and age. It clearly laid out which transportation to take and how to get there.

When she got off the bus, Ji Nian checked her phone. It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and she had been on the move for a while. She felt a bit exhausted, but the thought of earning money filled her with motivation.

According to the market price, she would earn fifty thousand yuan for this variety show. She couldn't help but marvel again at how easy it was for celebrities to make money.

At this point, the show's staff had already sent someone to the station. They saw this extraordinary woman get off the bus and walked up to her.

"Are you Miss Ji?" a man asked.

Ji Nian was momentarily taken aback, then she took off her mask and replied obediently, "Yes, are you from the show's crew?"

"Hello, hello! We are the staff of the Love Life program. My name is Xiao Hei. The person in charge sent us to pick you up." Xiao Hei was amazed by her beautiful face.

Ji Nian nodded and said, "Shall we go now?"

Xiao Hei answered, "Yes, please follow us."

"Alright." Ji Nian followed behind him.

It was a small town, and overall, it didn't look particularly developed. Even the train station was backed by a nearby mountain.

But when she approached a tricycle, Ji Nian looked at Xiao Hei with a puzzled expression, pointing at it and said, "Your production crew... seems quite simple."

Xiao Hei smiled and explained, "The road to the rural area we're going to is not good, especially with recent rain, it's full of potholes. This tricycle is more convenient."

Ji Nian nodded dumbly, then decided not to mind it. She sat comfortably at the back of the tricycle.

Xiao Hei and a fellow staff member looked somewhat surprised. She was beautiful and exuded a cool demeanor. They thought she might cause a scene because of the tricycle, but it turned out she was quite down-to-earth.

As they drove along, Ji Nian glanced at the surrounding scenery. It was filled with lush green mountains and clear waters, devoid of tall buildings, and painted a realistic picture of rural life.

Occasionally, they would encounter elderly men herding cows or women tending to vegetable gardens, who would cast curious glances their way.

Xiao Hei stopped the vehicle and said, "Miss Ji, we have arrived. Our accommodations are in the few houses up ahead. You can go in first."

Ji Nian hopped off the tricycle, nodded, and dragged her lightweight suitcase as she walked towards the house.

Upon pushing open the courtyard gate, she was taken aback. In front of her were a group of people and a sea of cameras. Everyone seemed to be recording her...

Not far from the entrance, a man washing vegetables stared at the woman who had just entered, his face filled with confusion.

The production crew was also bewildered. They had just switched the camera to the scene of the man washing vegetables when the door beside them swung open, and someone entered.

Xiao Hei, who had arrived from the back entrance, realized what had happened. Miss Ji had taken the wrong way and should have entered from the back.

The assistant director looked at Xiao Hei coldly and whispered, "What's going on?"

"I... I..." Xiao Hei became flustered.

Seeing the unexpected turn of events, the director's eyes lit up. He quickly gestured to the man washing vegetables, indicating him to improvise.

Ji Nian, with a bewildered look on her face, asked, "Did I go the wrong way?"

"No, no, I'm Zhou Sheng, a singer. Are you the new guest on our lifestyle show?" Zhou Sheng regained his composure, smiled, and asked.

"Yes," Ji Nian nodded absentmindedly. Then she pointed to the crowd of cameras and the staff nearby and asked, "Are we already filming now?"

Zhou Sheng hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes."

"What!" Ji Nian exclaimed in surprise. Then, feeling embarrassed, she looked in the direction of the man sitting in front of the camera and said, "I just arrived... I'm not ready yet... and we're already filming?"

At this moment, the video showed a woman with delicate features, wearing simple clothing, and looking completely baffled, which added some charm.

The director noticed that this was a scene that could be enhanced with special effects in post-production. He nodded to the woman, giving her the okay sign.

Ji Nian became even more confused. Looking at the numerous cameras, she asked, "Should I prepare something, like a... script? Or do I need to do something?"

"Hahaha!" Zhou Sheng burst into laughter and said, "Is this your first time on a variety show? You're so adorable."

Ji Nian felt very awkward and uncomfortable. At that moment, everyone in the room seemed to have noticed something and came out.

"Hey, is this the new guest?" a young man approached with a smile and asked.

Ji Nian obediently replied, "Hello, I'm..." before she could finish.

"I know you! You're always trending on social media. I'm Wu Hai, an actor. You're Ji Nian." Wu Hai had a cheerful and laid-back personality, and he spoke with a big smile on his face.

Zhou Sheng was the oldest among them, at the age of thirty-seven, and he was also the best chef. He walked over and said, "This is our member who loves life. He is Shen Yang, also a singer. This is Liang Jie, you should know her, the hottest host. And there's a little girl who's not here; she went out to water the plants."

"Hello, everyone. I am Ji Nian, no, I mean Ji Xiaonian..." Ji Nian corrected himself quickly, then looked embarrassed and said, "I should consider myself an actress, right?"

Everyone present burst into laughter at this introduction. Liang Jie smiled and said, "You are really interesting."

"Isn't being a singer considered? It's been trending for so long," Wu Hai laughed heartily.

Shen Yang had a gentle temperament and just smiled with pursed lips without saying anything.
