Chapter 22 - 22 022 This Heat is Unbelievable
Chapter 22: Chapter 022: This Heat is Unbelievable Chapter 22: Chapter 022: This Heat is Unbelievable To preserve the male protagonist’s dignity, the camera cut away for ten minutes.
The staff quickly got a new pair of pants from Mu Jincheng’s assistant.
With nowhere to change clothes, Shen Yan pointed to the tall bushes.
Mu Jincheng gloomily hid in the bushes to change into the new pants, and when he came out, his face was as grim as a ghost’s.
The VJ and the PD did not dare to breathe.
Mu Jincheng was a top influencer, and the program was relying on him and Chu Jinghe to attract viewers.
The other participants also had significant online followings.
But compared to those of the two of them, it still fell short.
To keep their jobs, they had to endure, even though it was uncomfortable.
Shen Yan ignored Mu Jincheng’s scowl.
The two cameramen quickly banished the mental image of the red underpants that had invaded their minds and readjusted their emotions, signaling Mu Jincheng and Shen Yan to redirect the camera back to the original position.
Shen Yan gave an “OK” hand gesture.
Mu Jincheng put on a face as if someone owed him billions, almost stormed off and refused to cooperate any further.
Luckily, his skin was thick enough, and he soon adjusted, so his expression was not too ugly.
When the camera returned, everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Mu Jincheng unharmed.
The comments were all asking about Mu Jincheng’s condition.
The Fireworks fans, with their sharp eyes, noticed that Mu Jincheng’s pants had been changed, and their eyes lit up, furiously flooding the chat.
This caused Mu Jincheng’s fans to howl and desperately try to cover up the mishap.
Regardless of their efforts, they couldn’t cover up what was captured on camera.
Everyone has eyes to see.
Mu Jincheng had just changed into a new pair of pants.
Consequently.
Weird hashtags started appearing on Weibo.
#So, Did Shen Yan See Mu Jincheng’s Exposed Holes?, #Mu Jincheng’s Rear Couldn’t be Saved#, #Shen Yan Gleefully Staring at Mu Jincheng’s Ass# and a host of other maliciously amusing hashtags emerged endlessly.
One even got pushed to the trending searches.
It included some mockingly made GIFs.
This angered Mu Jincheng’s fans.
They went to that trending post, cursing, and even organized some haters to drag Shen Yan down with them.
Suddenly, the show’s popularity skyrocketed.

Liu Su took over Xingyu Media Company, and the first thing he did was issue personal notices for Shen Yan.
Zhang Lu, this manager, was truly awful; aside from this show, she hadn’t secured any other gigs.
Once this episode finished recording, Shen Yan would have gaps in her schedule, and Zhang Lu, as her manager, should quickly fill those gaps to allow her artist to shine.
Instead, she did the opposite.
She had no care, and even aimed to ruin Shen Yan’s reputation.
The makeup and wardrobe were all up to Zhang Lu.
These two days, Liu Su was also busy learning about public relations and other media company operations, and was also getting familiar with these online apps.
Seeing these hashtags, Liu Su’s expression turned sour.
If the boss saw this, even if he didn’t like Miss Shen, he would be furious.
Remarks like Shen Yan ogling Mu Jincheng’s ass were in extremely poor taste.
Liu Su instantly put down his phone, rushed to Xingyu Media Company, gathered the public relations department for a meeting, and quickly controlled this maliciously amusing topic that mocked Shen Yan.
Although Liu Su did not explicitly mention Shen Yan, the senior staff vaguely sensed something.

Shen Yan, carrying a bag and holding quite a few jujubes, walked ahead, turned back to see the pale-faced Mu Jincheng, and casually asked, “Are you okay?”
Mu Jincheng, with a look that seemed to want to tear a piece of flesh from Shen Yan’s body, gritted his teeth and said, “I’m fine.”
His waist was still aching.
Shen Yan didn’t think a man would be so weak that falling once required special care.
Because in the world she came to later, there was no such thing as “fragility” and “being cared for.”
Seeing this, Mu Jincheng’s fans were displeased again.
Cursed Shen Yan for being inconsiderate.
Cursed the crew for being inhumane, making people continue with tasks even after they had fallen.
It really was a wrongful accusation against the crew.
The follow-up team had already reported to Director Li and asked Mu Jincheng for his input.
Mu Jincheng had insisted on finishing the day’s task, leaving them with no choice.
Because of the fall, fans were sympathizing from left and right, almost enough to make “Sympathy for Mu Jincheng” trend on social media.
There were also viewers who disliked this, calling Mu Jincheng pretentious.
Comparing him to the female student Shen Yan only made them feel Mu Jincheng, a grown man, was nothing.
Mu Jincheng’s fans still supported him.
They said that Mu Jincheng had always focused on acting and couldn’t be compared to Shen Yan, who came from a rural background.
Shen Yan was naturally labeled as the “country kid.”
Still, Shen Yan continued down this path with ease.
But it was tough for the one trailing behind.
From the jujube tree onward, he continually held his waist as he walked.
Each step was as painful as tearing his muscles and bones.
Seeing Shen Yan’s relaxed demeanor, Mu Jincheng felt a surge of jealousy.
Why could Shen Yan be so casual and relaxed while he had to embarrass himself following behind her?
He didn’t want to be teamed up with Shen Yan anymore.
He had to talk to Director Li that evening.
He would team up with anyone but Shen Yan.
Having decided to chat with Director Li later that night provided Mu Jincheng with some relief.
Soon, they saw the endpoint, and Shen Yan threw the wild medicine and jujubes she had collected into the designated large tray before turning to look at Director Li, who was beaming in front of the camera.
Director Li, stroking his chin, was inwardly scheming how to torment the guests.
Suddenly meeting Shen Yan’s gaze, Director Li choked a bit.
What did Shen Yan’s look mean?
At that moment, Mu Jincheng’s assistant hurried over anxiously to inquire about Mu Jincheng’s condition, prompting Director Li to immediately have the accompanying medical staff check on him.
If a guest were to have an accident here, he’d be trending on social media tomorrow.
Seeing that no one else had arrived, Shen Yan simply sat to the side to cool off.
There was still plenty of time.
Director Li had people take Mu Jincheng to the rest tent, then turned back only to see Shen Yan sitting leisurely there, which greatly irritated him.
Ever since Shen Yan had returned to the show, he felt he couldn’t handle it anymore.
Shen Yan completed tasks so effortlessly and beautifully, which was discouraging for the other guests.
Director Li felt defeated but dared not increase the difficulty anymore.
If he did, others might literally end up being carried into the hospital from the show.
“cough, Shen Yan Ah, since there’s still time, let’s chat about your experiences with today’s task.”
“Experiences?”
Shen Yan thought about it but couldn’t come up with any insights to share.
“Yes, tell us about your survival experience today!” Director Li struck a new pose, eagerly staring at Shen Yan.
The camera focused on Shen Yan’s face as she pondered seriously for several seconds.
It was quiet.
Very quiet.
“None.”
Shen Yan coldly threw out two words at Director Li.
Director Li: “…”
Audience: “…”
Director Li took a deep breath, capturing Shen Yan’s best angle again, “Then let’s talk about the changes in this episode, everyone must be curious if you were purposely hiding your skills last time, or if you prepared differently after going back.”
Shen Yan looked towards the camera, her bright, clear eyes captivating anyone who met them, making their heart beat faster.
“No preparation—it’s innate talent and essential survival skills. Without such basics, one might as well wait to die.”
The moment the word “die” was mentioned, everyone in front of the screen felt a sudden tightness in their chest.
That moment felt very uncomfortable.
What do you think?
