She took out a yellow talisman and started recording the energy pattern. Once she had enough data, she sent it to the Special Officer Departnt.
[Can you track this?] she ssaged.
A reply ca almost instantly.
[Give ten minutes.]
Yu Holea leaned back in her chair, tapping her fingers against the table.
Whoever this person was, they were skilled. But no one could hide forever.
Her phone buzzed again.
[Found them.]
Her eyes sharpened.
[Where?]
[Blue Lotus Village.]
"Eh?" Yu Holea was stunned. Blue Lotus village was the place where her variety show was going to be shot.
"Great. I won’t need to go out of my way to catch this cultivator."
After packing up, Yu Holea set out for the shooting location.
The variety show’s pattern was quite unique.
Yu Holea arrived at the Blue Lotus Village, her car pulling up to the set.
She had co half an hour early, yet when she stepped out, she realized—she was still the last one to arrive!
All the other celebrities were already gathered near the village entrance, chatting with each other.
She sighed. "I thought I was early..."
The village was peaceful, surrounded by lush green fields and small wooden houses.
The air slled fresh, with a hint of morning dew.
As she walked toward the group, a staff mber greeted her.
"Welco, Miss Yu! Everyone else is here already. Please join the introductions!"
Yu Holea nodded and turned to the other five participants.
There were three actresses, including her, and three actors.
All of them were fresh faces in the entertainnt industry, still trying to make a na for themselves.
The first actress was Liu iyu.
She was a sweet-looking girl with soft brown hair and bright, expressive eyes.
She had gained attention recently for playing the second female lead in a romance drama.
Though she wasn’t very famous yet, people liked her cheerful personality and natural acting.
The second actress was Zhao Yiran.
Unlike Liu iyu, she had sharp features and a confident aura.
She was known for her role in an action movie where she played a strong female warrior.
Even though she was a newbie, she had already built a reputation for doing her own stunts.
Then, there were the three male actors.
The first one was Lin Zhihao.
He had a warm and friendly vibe, with dimples that made him look approachable.
He had acted in a school drama that beca quite popular, and many fans loved his "boy-next-door" image.
Next was Xu Tian, a tall and quiet guy with a serious expression.
He was the most mysterious among them, known for playing an assassin in a cri thriller.
Despite being new, his deep voice and intense acting caught the audience’s attention.
The last actor was Fang Jinhai.
He was the playful one, always smiling and joking around. He had been in a cody series, and people recognized him for his hilarious expressions and quick wit.
As soon as Yu Holea arrived, all of them turned to greet her and Liu iyu instantly hugged Yu Holea’s arms,
"Hey, I have seen you in the recently hit movie! You have played an amazing role! Sister Holea can you teach acting too? My black fans always call out for my bad acting skills."
As if on cue, the fans in live streams start to troll her,
"LOL, Liu iyu begging for acting lessons on the first day??"
"At least she knows she’s bad at acting."
"Poor Yu Holea, she just arrived and already has to babysit."
"Can Liu iyu survive without hugging soone for five minutes?"
Liu iyu pouted when she saw the comnts.
"Ah! My black fans are so an! Why do they always pick on ?"
Fang Jinhai laughed. "Because you give them too much content, iyu."
Liu iyu gasped dramatically and turned to Yu Holea.
"Sister Holea, don’t listen to them! I will work hard! You will teach , right?"
Before Yu Holea could reply Lin Zhihao chuckled and said,
"But Miss Yu don’t even have basic etiquette of arriving on ti, aren’t you worried that you will learn one good thing but gain one bad habit in return?"
His tone was light as if he was passing a joke but Yu Holea caught on the hidden sarcasm in Lin Zhihao’s tone.
With a smile on her face, Yu Holea replied,
"Mr. Lin is indeed funny, even though we are in a village, you still act like a city boy who never got stuck in traffic before."
The group burst into laughter.
"Ohhh, burn!" Fang Jinhai whistled.
Lin Zhihao scratched his nose, pretending to be embarrassed. "I was just joking, Sister Yu. No need to be so sharp!"
Yu Holea gave him a sweet but fake smile. "I was joking too."
The live chat exploded again.
"LOL, Yu Holea claps back fast!"
"Lin Zhihao thought he was funny, but Yu was funnier."
"I love the subtle battle here."
"Sister Yu doesn’t lose!"
"Does Lin Zhihao have a grudge against Yu Holea?"
"Hey! Don’t throw dirty water on our Brother Lin!"
Lin Zhihao on the other hand suddenly blinked and looked at Yu Holea in confusion.
"I...I am sorry...I don’t know what had happened to just now."
Yu Holea’s eyes narrowed before she smiled,
"It’s alright."
The director clapped his hands, bringing everyone’s attention back.
"Alright, alright! Let’s move on! The first task of the day is to harvest rice. In this task, each of you will pair up with a person and form a team.
The team ford will perform tasks together for the entire week and they have to share the house. To prevent a physical disadvantage, the team will consist of a female and a male actor.
Now, each of you will have to draw a number from the drawing lot. The matching number will make a pair."
Each of them stepped forward one by one to draw a number from the box.
Yu Holea reached in and pulled out a small folded paper. She opened it and saw the number 3 written on it.
In the end, Liu iyu was paired with Fang Jinhai, Zhao Yiran was paired with Lin Zhihao, and Yu Holea was paired with Xu Tian.
Xu Tian was tall and quiet, his dark eyes calm as always. He gave her a small nod. "Let’s get along."
"Likewise," Yu Holea replied with a polite smile.
The live chat exploded.
"Liu iyu and Fang Jinhai are looking so cute together! I am shipping them!"
"Zhao Yiran looks as if she would kick Lin Zhihao any second!"
"OMG! Xu Tian and Yu Holea, the coolest and most mysterious pair!"
So of Lin Zhihao’s fans who were upset with Yu Holea comnted,
"From what I can see Yu Holea is going to drag Xu Tian down! Xu Tian’s fans be ready to see him lose today!"
"I think the shipping comnt is said by Yu Holea’s PR team! Xu Tian’s fans look out for him."
In an instant, so of Xu Tian’s fans were on alert and comnted,
"Yu Holea stay away from our assassin Xu!"
"Yes! Don’t you dare touch our Baby Xu!"
The director clapped his hands.
"Alright! Now that the teams are set, let’s move to the rice field! Your first task starts now!"
Yu Holea followed the group as they walked toward the rice field. The sun was bright, and the air slled like fresh grass.
She glanced at Xu Tian, who walked beside her quietly.
He didn’t talk much, but he didn’t seem cold either. Just... calm.
The director stopped in front of a wide rice field.
"Alright, everyone! Here’s how the ga works! Each team must harvest as much rice as they can in one hour. The team with the most rice wins!"
A staff mber brought out tools—small sickles for cutting the rice stalks.
Yu Holea picked one up and turned to Xu Tian. "Let’s do our best."
Xu Tian nodded. "Yeah."
The whistle blew. "Start!"
Everyone rushed into the field.
Yu Holea bent down and grabbed a bunch of rice stalks. She swung the sickle, cutting them cleanly. Xu Tian worked next to her, moving fast but steady.
anwhile, Liu iyu struggled.
"Ah! Why is this so tough?!" she whined, trying to cut the rice but only bending the stalks.
Fang Jinhai laughed. "You’re too weak, iyu!"
"Shut up! I’m trying!"
Lin Zhihao and Zhao Yiran were doing well. Zhao Yiran, who was used to action scenes, worked quickly. Lin Zhihao wasn’t bad either, though he kept stopping to wipe sweat from his forehead.
Yu Holea stole a glance at the livestream comnts on a nearby screen.
"Liu iyu is hilarious! She looks like a lost bunny!"
"Zhao Yiran is a beast! Look at her go!"
"Xu Tian is so smooth. He’s cutting rice like an assassin on a mission!"
"Wait, why is Yu Holea so good at this???"
The last comnt attracted everyone’s attention and one by one everyone focused on Yu Holea.
