WNSYM Chapter 25.1




Chapter 25.1 - As one part of Wanyu Media




The four words “in real life meeting” made Tang Xiao fall into a deep pit of anxiety.


She started to reflect, she really was too free.


In this half year, she’d only received one spokesperson role and two advertisements.


She didn’t have any TV dramas or movies, which meant that most of her time was spent playing games.


She spent too much playing games, so the result of that was that it was hard for her to tell the difference between the online world and the real world.


She felt like, if Chief Ning found out about that, she probably wouldn’t be able to even use electricity any more.


Chief Ning let her be lovestruck every day over Mu Cheng’s posters, but he definitely wouldn’t let her muck around and spout nonsense everyday inside a game.


So even though she wasn’t popular, when she went out on the streets, if you gave everyone a minute, they’d still be able to recognise who she was.


But, if you publicised what she did online, she’d probably be very, very famous.


The headlines would change to: A certain actress plays a transgender character, flirts with girls, is she a lesbian or an immoral degenerate?


A certain actress is completely heartless, destroys other people’s equipments.


A certain actress is sweet on screen, but in game, swears non stop.




The more she thought, the more she felt like she was about to die.


Sob, sob, sob, if she wasn’t famous, even her name wouldn’t be able to get out there.


No way!


She had to think of her career and her future ahead!


Originally, the hands that wanted to go online, suddenly clicked the “cross” and exited the screen.


She called Xiao Lin.


Xiao Lin seemed extremely busy.


When she picked up, she sounded urgent and rapid, “If you have something, spit it out! I’m playing a game right now!”

Tang Xiao fell into deep thought.


Had she really become this free?


Even her assistant was starting to play games???


Tang Xiao instantly asked, “What game are you playing?”


Xiao Lin seemed to finally realise that the person on the phone was her, sucked in a deep breath and slightly guiltily, “Fighting the landlord.”

En ….


With Xiao Lin’s intelligence, she’d probably only be able to play that sort of game.


“Do I have any jobs lined up lately?”


In a second, Xiao Lin was unsure with how to proceed.


Was she supposed to say yes or no?


She considered for a moment about how Tang Xiao was normally the type to be like a dead pig, who wasn’t afraid of hot water because it was already dead.


She didn’t care if she wasn’t popular, after all, she’d just lie down at home and decide not to go to work.


That type of attitude.


She thought for a moment.


“There’s nothing really. Just Spirit Road’s spokesperson. Your clothing’s still being made so the filming date hasn’t been set yet.”

Tang Xiao was speechless. “Xiao Lin, am I really this unpopular?”


Xiao Lin was also speechless. “When have you ever been popular?”


She was right ….


“Xiao Lin ah, I feel like I’ve been holed up at home for a half a year now and it’s extremely bad. Extremely, extremely bad. So I want to start working …”

She hadn’t even finished before she got hung up on.


F***, what was this?


What to do, even her assistant disliked her?


She looked outside the window.


If she jumped out of the window right now and broke some bows, she probably wouldn’t have to go next week right?


Wait no, if she messed up, she’d probably die.


Chief Ning’s phone call interrupted her as she was pondering life.


“Have you recently been possessed?”


Tang Xiao’s face was taken aback. “Possessed? Who did you hear that from?”


“Xiao Lin said you actually wanted to go to work? Isn’t that being possessed?” Chief Ning’s tone was calm.


“Or did you make some sort of trouble?”


Tang Xiao instantly felt guilty. “How could that be? I just felt like that as a member of society, and as one part of Wanyu media, I definitely can’t let myself go like this any more. Chief Ning, are there any jobs? For example, any holiday or tourism programs, that’d be great.”

If she could avoid it, she’d avoid it.


“Don’t even try me. Speak the truth, are you sick of playing games online? Or did you make some sort of trouble online?” Chief Ning spoke coldly.


Tang Xiao froze and thought, you even knew this?


Just as she was about to ask that, she suddenly stopped herself.


This was leading her on!!!


A leading question to make her tell the truth!!!!!


“Every day, I’ve been playing ‘fighting the landlord’ so I actually have been bored. But the biggest reason is, the world is so big! I should take a look around! But I don’t have money to do so. So are there any holiday programs that I can get carried on?” Tang Xiao could only pretend to be obedient.


Chief Ning paused for a moment.


From the phone, she heard papers flipping.


“There’s a survival program called, “Foodies around the world.””


“Okay, okay, okay! This one, then.” Tang Xiao heard the name and instantly felt like it was perfect.


Foodie and around the world?


Doesn’t that mean going around the world for free and getting to eat, eat and eat?


“What time does it start? I can go whenever!”

“Before you go, you have to first do a survival in the wild exercise.”

Wait?


Why did she feel like something was wrong?


Wasn’t this a gourmet holiday program?!


“I feel like you’re understanding this wrong. This program’s about reaching the limits of human beings. Do you know who the producer and sponsor is? It’s that crazy man who can eat anything, dead or alive.”


Tang Xiao: ………


She just knew it.


She felt like if she really participated in it, she might actually truthfully have to fulfil that promise she made earlier ---- to eat poop.

TL note:


TX trying to get out of the irl meeting - unsuccessfully HA.


*For clarity purposes, program = TV program.


Fighting the landlord - it’s a super popular card game where three ‘farmers’ fight against a ‘landlord’ and kinda play poker to get rid of the cards in their hands. It’s a pretty easy game to learn and that’s why TX says with Xiao Lin’s intelligence, she can only play these types of games.

  1. I really like this chapter! TX is finally reevaluating her self--image and life choices. Just when you start feeling sorry for her, she thinks such funny things! I.e.jumping out of the window "Wait no, if she messed up, she’d probably die." I can't wait to see if she goes!

    1. Just when you think she's finally developing a teeny tiny bit of self awareness, she's really just trying to avoid getting killed by Chief Ning 😂😂

    2. I also loved the update! Thank you!
      Realistically speaking, instead of jumping down the window, can't she just not go to the irl-meeting at all? If things get worse, she can just create another game character too... Of course, that's not what's going to happen lol~

    3. She knows her guild mates so she has to think of a convincing reason to not go. But TX loves digging her own grave so she forgot that she left a clue to her real life, kinda (hint: Xiao Lin).

      She already has another account - her support nurse account that got found out by Mu Cheng because of how she likes swearing and cannot keep her foot out of her mouth 😫😰

    4. That's true!
      And yes, I do remember her poor alt account, but she could create another character aside from the enchanter and support nurse and start anew? She could also play another game, but she won't do that since 'Spirit Road's spokesperson is her male idol lol
      Anyway, it seems MC can't escape now ~!
      And, most important, thank you so much for translating this novel!!!!!!!!!

    5. When she gets famous, she decides to play on her support nurse account but typical TX, swears too much and courts death so she still ends up getting beaten up. TX's too attached to her main account because she's dropped $$$ on her account so that she can bully other low levelled characters 😂

      Thanks for reading this novel 💗💗

    6. I've just finished reading your comment, and the latest update-chapter 26.1! I finally understood it now lol~! I thank you for translating this wonderful novel!

    7. TX's mouth is pretty much nearly wholly responsible for all the troubles in TX's life 😰😭

      Delete
  2. HAHAHAHAHA, will TX take the program? I feel like she's doomed to ruin her image either way. It's okay TX, MC already knows the real you!

    1. Chief Ning can sniff out TX's lies from a mile away so she decides to come up with another """genius"""" plan.

      TX is probably too weak to go on an actual survival program like that 🤔🤔

  3. Tang Xiao ah you shouldn't make empty promises like that. Look, karma came to visit you. I vote for you jumping out the window. Who knows, maybe Mu Chen is down there *grins*

    Thanks for the chapter!~

      But she does end up filming a drama or movie later on 🙈
