Chapter 2 - Unanticipated Entanglements

莲哥的脸都青了.

"云楚楚,你开玩笑呢?你疯了,还想跟他睡!"

"你知道他是谁吗?睡了他,别说被列入圈子黑名单了,你还怕活不下去吗!"连歌明显吓坏了,眼中满是惊恐.

云楚楚心想,自己一定能活下来,毕竟她已经跟欧云辰谈好了价格,交易已经完成了.

见莲歌吓得这样狼狈,她只好安抚道:"放心,我开玩笑的..."

莲歌松了一口气,"你吓死我了!"

等他冷静下来,又想到了一个主意,"哦,对了,现在有个关于原始森林探险的真人秀节目.他们想让你作为第一集的嘉宾,我打算替你接下这个节目!"

"新的真人秀?"云楚楚微微皱眉,连忙回答,"我不接."

莲歌吓得差点儿撞到绿地里,"小姐,三个月了,这是我们公司第一份工作,你怎么能拒绝呢?"

他想说,云楚楚虽然家境富裕,有钱,但是,她要是一直没有工作,他这个做她的专属经纪人,也要饿死.

云楚楚挑眉,"在新剧第一期做嘉宾,就是准备拿我当替罪羊,让全网喷我,增加节目的知名度.

我为什么要参加一个专门为了压榨我收视率的节目呢?

这对我的事业没有任何好处!"

莲歌无语,她分析的很对.

但他还是想问:"小姐,你其实有职业规划吗?"

就在这时,云楚楚的手机震动了起来,是欧云辰发来的信息.

她看了一眼,然后通过网上银行向他转账,完成了交易.

交易完成,现在他们扯平了.

欧云辰看到转会确认书,牙关紧咬,几乎要生疼,惨白病态的俊脸掠过一抹阴霾——太好了!

看来这个女人已经把他忘记得一干二净了.

经纪人陈逸小心翼翼的凑上前来,"陈歌,水果频道最近有个丛林探险真人秀节目,想邀请我们做固定嘉宾,我看过他们的节目安排了,可以安排上!"

欧云琛关掉手机,问道:"还有谁?"

陈毅把名单递给他, 

"除了你是常驻嘉宾外,其他人都是客串明星. 

有大众关注度高的人气偶像,

十年前的一位巨星,

and a professional seasoned adventurer, with each episode featuring ten participants."

Ou Yunchen casually glanced at the list.

Chen Yi added, "The guest lineup looks good, covering a wide range of fan groups—men, women, young, and old. The show should attract high viewership; we might consider..."

"No need, I'll do it," Ou Yunchen interrupted, his gaze landing on a specific name in the guest column.

"But, I have one condition..."

Chen Yi, relieved, responded, "As long as you agree, the production team can make anything happen!"

Ou Yunchen pointed to a name on the list, a sly smile playing on his lips, "I want to see Yun Chuchu there..."

"Yun Chuchu???" 

Chen Yi was stunned; was it the notorious rich heiress who was universally despised online?

"Yes…" Ou Yunchen affirmed, his eyes shimmering with unfathomable intent.

She may not remember him, but he would make sure she "recalled" everything very clearly.

Yun Chuchu's residence was a European-style mansion given to her by her parents at birth, located in a highly coveted central city area.

As Lian Ge dropped her off at the gate, he looked at her hopefully, "Think it over and let me know."

His face was a portrait of melancholy, his yearning for her participation in the show evident.

"Okay," Yun Chuchu responded nonchalantly, clearly unenthusiastic.

As he watched her dismissive demeanor, Lian Ge advised, "Don't post on social media during this time, and if you must, inform me first, okay?"

Her posts, usually flaunting wealth, invariably ignited mass criticism online.

"Alright." Yun Chuchu waved dismissively without looking back and entered her home.

As the door unlocked biometrically, the living room lights turned on automatically.

Her mansion was lavishly appointed, each corner crafted with care.

However, the style was not to her liking.

In her original world, everything was run by robots and high-tech, cold and impersonal.

She was tired of a life devoid of warmth.

Given a second chance at life, she was determined to live as she desired, not squandering this opportunity.

The next day, Yun Chuchu called in decorators to remodel the mansion.

She didn't alter the main structure but focused on transforming the backyard pool and the somewhat neglected garden.

After three days of intense work, the renovations were complete.

The pool was converted into a large pond, and the adjacent overgrown grass was cleared and segmented into well-organized plots.

Yun Chuchu was satisfied. She released the fish fry she had bought the day before into the pond and planted vegetables and fruit seedlings in the prepared soil plots.

Skillfully scattering seeds, fertilizing, and watering, she completed the tasks seamlessly.

After surveying her revitalized backyard, a deep sense of accomplishment filled her.

最后,她远离了旧世界的营养液,准备拥抱一种可以自己选择食材的生活.

云楚楚在家里待了好几天,过着自给自足的生活,心里很满足.

然而,这样的平静注定是短暂的.

"叮咚,叮咚..."

云楚楚正在做饭,门铃却意外响了.

她关掉火,擦了擦手,走到门口,透过猫眼看见莲歌,便打开了门.

莲歌一进门,立刻就闻到了满屋子的香味.

看到围着围裙的云楚楚,他明显有些惊讶,"你做饭?"

云楚楚微微点头,"有什么需要吗?"

莲歌绕过她,径直向厨房走去.

"这真的是你做的菜吗?还是你刚订了外卖然后重新加热了一下?"

他有些怀疑,云楚楚这个豪门千金什么时候学会做饭了?

云楚楚也懒得解释,继续忙着厨房的事.

莲歌等了许久,终于还是开口开口了.

"还记得我之前说的那个真人秀吗?主办方又联系我了,只要你参加,他们愿意给你三倍的出场费."

云楚楚一边听着,一边衡量着自己的选择,决定经济激励是否值得她重新成为焦点.
