As Chen Che watched, the camera also turned.

The anti-fans in the live-stream immediately became happy.

[Haha! The place Chen Che chose is taken!]

[Will this guy fight with the homeless for territory?]

[There’s going to be a good show this time!]

While they were discussing, the uncle had already come close. Chen Che hurriedly stood up.

Suddenly being stared at by someone with a camera, the uncle frowned and wondered if this place was no longer allowed to live.

Seeing through the uncle’s thoughts, Chen Che was the first to greet him. “Uncle, are you staying here tonight?”

“That’s right.” The uncle nodded.

“Uncle, it’s like this. I want to stay here tonight too, but I have no intention of snatching the place from you.” Chen Che’s words were polite as he made his stand clear.

The uncle frowned. “You’re staying here too? Are you putting on a show?”

“I’m filming a show, but I’m not putting on a show. I’m homeless, so I want to live here,” Chen Che explained.

“How can you be homeless at such a young age? Are you kidding me?” The uncle was skeptical.

“I’m not kidding you. As for why I’m homeless, it’s a long story.” Chen Che spread his hands and continued, “Uncle, if you don’t mind, can you let me stay here too?”

Chen Che understood the logic of first come, first served. If the other party did not agree, he could only change locations.

The uncle laughed. “As long as you’re not picky. What’s there to mind? Besides, this is a public place. Let’s live together.”

“Thank you, Uncle.” Chen Che was overjoyed that he didn’t have to do anything anymore.

The netizens exploded at this moment. They never dreamed that Chen Che would actually want to live with a homeless person. Didn’t he find it dirty?

However, Chen Che did not feel any disgust in his heart. In his opinion, everyone was equal. If there were no difficulties, who would be willing to wander?

“Let’s go in. The machines here will be serviced when in the wee hours. We don’t have to worry about being disturbed,” the uncle said again. It was obvious that he was a regular here and knew the environment very well.

Upon hearing this, Chen Che was even more satisfied with this place. He turned to look at the camera. “Thank you for your hard work. Let’s stop here for today.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow.” The VJ didn’t dawdle and immediately turned off the camera and left.

While Chen Che was still happy that he had found a place to stay, he did not know that the short conversation had already been heard by someone.

“A show? This homeless man’s choice of words is very accurate.”

In an office, the woman turned off the livestream and revealed a wicked smile. It was the rich second-generation heir of Team 5.

Her name was Luo Yuelin, the daughter of Luo Real Estate.

Most of the houses in Jiangshi City were owned by Luo’s Real Estate. Therefore, one could imagine how rich she was.

In terms of looks, she definitely could not compare to Lin Xi. However, in terms of wealth, not to mention Lin Xi, no one in the ten groups could compare to her.

On the first day, when the ten groups of contestants were paired up, she and Lin Xi received the most attention because the netizens did not understand their actions.

As a goddess, why did Lin Xi have to participate in this show and even find a poor kid?

As a fair, rich, and beautiful woman, why did Luo Yuelin participate in this show? Moreover, she had also found a partner who was in the startup. It could be said that they were not of the same family background.

In fact, Luo Yuelin wanted to make use of this show to become popular. As for her boyfriend, he was just a tool.

However, just as she thought that she could win steadily, she did not expect Chen Che to appear. Her popularity was snatched away, completely disrupting her plan.

She did not simply watch as the numbers increased.

The reason why Chen Che suddenly had a large number of anti-fans was actually because of the team hired by Luo Yuelin.

Not long after, a short-haired girl walked into the office.

“Sister Lin, are you looking for me?”

Luo Yuelin crossed her arms and said, “Find a few mid-tier influencers and say that Chen Che is an actor hired by Lin Xi. He’s just acting poor and stingy.”

“Lin Xi did this to attract attention and drive her company’s development.”

Luo Yuelin schemed as she could on Lin Xi.

The short-haired girl frowned slightly. “Sister Lin, don’t blame me for being nosy. I don’t understand why you’re doing this. If you really don’t like them, can’t you just find someone to scare them?”

“Or, as long as the old man says the word, both of them will lose their jobs. At that time, how can they still be in the mood to talk about love?”

Luo Yuelin explained seriously, “There’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall. The intention is too obvious. What if someone investigates?”

“The organizers clearly said that we can’t play tricks on each other. If we’re discovered, we’ll be disqualified. If this happens, won’t I be embarrassed?”

“Just do as I say. We’ll be in charge of leading the way. Naturally, there will be people who will follow suit. They might not be able to withstand the pressure of public opinion.”

“Understood, Sister Lin.” The short-haired girl didn’t say anything else and turned to leave.

At the same time, Chen Che and the uncle had already made a bed on the ground. They exchanged words and got to know each other.

From their conversation, Chen Che learned that the uncle was originally a company boss. Later on, the company went bankrupt and his wife ran away. That was how he became like this.

He wanted to encourage the uncle’s fighting spirit, but the uncle’s heart was already dead, and he was used to a life where he ate his fill alone and his family wasn’t suffering with him.

Seeing this, Chen Che did not say anything else.

Just as he had said before, everyone had their own way of living. As long as they liked it, it was fine.

As they chatted, it was already past ten in the evening. The uncle also snored as they chatted.

Chen Che smiled and shook his head. He took out his phone and prepared to say goodnight to Lin Xi.

As soon as his phone was unlocked, several notifications popped up on the live-stream platform.

[It’s not as real as acting. What’s Lin Xi’s true motive?]

[Breaking news! There are actors in Jiangshi City?]

[Chen Che pretended to be poor on purpose because of money?]

Because Chen Che had entered his live broadcast room last night, the big data pushed these messages over.

Seeing this, Chen Che frowned and clicked on it. He thought to himself, It’s fine if she scolded him, but how did she become an actress now?

Upon entering the platform, many videos came into view. According to Luo Yuelin’s request, the influencers analyzed the videos systematically as if they were real.

After their analysis, the comments section of every video was one-sided. They all felt that it made sense and believed it.

After all, how could anyone be so stingy in reality?

Some irrational netizens had already started reposting and sharing. Lin Xi’s name had actually pushed to the top ten trending topics.

Seeing this, Chen Che hurriedly clicked on Lin Xi’s personal account and went in to take a look. The comments section was also filled with curses.

They said that Lin Xi was shameless and unscrupulous. In any case, they were all nasty words.

Chen Che clenched his fists. He did not expect his stinginess to cause trouble for Lin Xi.

He didn’t care how the Internet scolded and humiliated him.

But he definitely could not let the public slander Lin Xi!
