Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At six in the morning, Xia Wei’s doorbell rang on time.

[Heartthrob TA] was this world’s first celebrity dating variety show. Because it had to take the celebrities’ schedule into account, it used a mixture of live-stream and recording.

The broadcast time was six in the morning every Saturday, and the live-stream would last for a day and a half.

The celebrity guests needed to spend the night together in the room. During this period, the production team arranged various activities and the filming would only end at noon on Sunday.

The director understood the fans’ thoughts very well, so before the guests met up at the room, every guest had a filming team to film them all alone and the audience could choose which guest they wanted to see.

For the first celebrity love variety show in the country, Director Zhao had personally decided on the guests this time.

Until the first episode of the premiere last week, a total of three male guests and four female guests appeared.

The male guests included Liu Shi, who had debuted during a talent show this year, Li Xian, who had just acted in his first drama last year but was trending because of how well he played the villain character, and the mysterious big shot of the entertainment industry, Chen Yuan.

The female guests included Su Chu, who also debuted in a talent show, An Nan, who had acted in a few dramas but had never been popular, and Xin Xin, who quickly became popular on the internet because of a graduation photo. Then, there was Xia Wei.

Although the guests were not famous people in the entertainment industry, they were still people who had a good standing in the industry.

In addition, in order to win Chen Yuan back, the previous Host targeted Xin Xin all the time and disturbed Chen Yuan and Xin Xin’s interaction at every opportunity. This attracted the attention of many netizens and contributed a lot to the show’s popularity.

…

Because # Xia Wei committed suicide for love # had been trending the day before yesterday, today, Xia Wei’s live-stream was extremely lively.

Many netizens and haters of Xia Wei had been waiting in the live-stream for a long time. They were prepared to scold Xia Wei the moment she appeared.

Director Zhao, who was sitting backstage, stroked his chin thoughtfully when he saw the increase in the number of people watching Xia Wei’s live-stream.

[No way! The number of people watching Xia Wei’s live-stream is actually second only to Liu Shi! So many people want to scold her.]

[Why are you guys all here to see that scheming bitch?! Everyone, go and see Xin Xin! She’s so cute even without makeup!]

At that moment, the door opened.

The photographer had been staring at the frame when a girl suddenly appeared in the camera.

Her clothes were simple and casual, and her long wavy hair was tied into a loose bun. There were still water droplets on her fair face that had not been wiped clean, and a few strands of stray hair made the girl look even fairer. Her doe-like eyes looked at the camera in a panic, but she quickly regained her composure.

Xia Wei had always maintained a healthy routine. She was prepared to wake up early to wash her face and exercise, but… why didn’t anyone tell her that the production team would come to film so early?!

Just as Xia Wei was in a daze, the comment section exploded.

[Good lord! Where did this beautiful girl come from?!]

[Do you want to consider entering the entertainment industry?!]

“Are you guys the [Heartthrob TA] filming team?” Xia Wei asked.

The photographer was a little stunned. He had been in the entertainment industry for many years and had filmed many beautiful women, but the one in front of him… made him gasp in amazement.

He only came back to his senses when he was urged by the director through the earpiece. “Yes… yes. Is Ms. Xia Wei at home?”

Xia Wei stared at him for a while before the corners of her lips curled up into a sweet smile. “I am!”

She knew it! She knew that they would definitely be shocked by her beauty!

Even she was shocked when she saw the Host’s heavy makeup for the first time!

[Did I mishear? That’s actually Xia Wei?]

[I don’t believe it. If this is Xia Wei, I’ll wash my hair upside down!!]

[If you guys don’t believe me, go find Xia Wei’s selfies on Xia Wei’s social media app! Xia Wei has always looked like this!]

Xia Wei’s fans kept explaining to everyone that Xia Wei just had bad sense in terms of makeup style.

Unfortunately, there were too many people watching the live-stream. The comments were like a torrential river, and the few messages posted by the fans were quickly drowned out.

Seeing that the photographer was still in a daze, Xia Wei moved closer to the camera and stared at it for a while. Then, she looked up and asked, “Has the live-stream started?”

The photographer came back to his senses and quickly nodded.

Xia Wei waved at the camera. “Hello, everyone. I’m Xia Wei! I’ll change my clothes and come back immediately!”

After saying that, she gestured to the filming team and returned to her room.

[Is Xia Wei preparing to create the new persona of being a ‘natural beauty’?]

[Did she have plastic surgery again recently?]

[Goodness, Xia Wei is so beautiful!! I’m in love!]
