Everyone went crazy after the villainous female supporting character was bound to the system.

The staff looked at her with fear, their eyes scanning Liu Tianqing's legs several times: "Is your leg alright?"

You should know that this model is really heavy; it took two people to carry it over.

Liu Tianqing was kicked three meters away, flying backwards. More worried about whether Liu Tianqing's leg was broken than whether the brown bear model was damaged.

Liu Tianqing was stunned for a moment, moved his foot, and immediately a look of pain appeared on his face:

"I checked it, and my foot does hurt a bit. I must have used too much force just now and injured it. Ugh, that model really startled me. I just got out of the hospital, and the variety show hasn't even started yet, and I've already injured myself..."

Seeing that the staff didn't react at all, Liu Tianqing reminded them again:

"I wonder if there will be any subsidies..."

The staff member frowned: "Ms. Liu, according to the contract, once you participate in this variety show, your life is in the hands of fate..."

Liu Tianqing lowered his eyes and sobbed softly:

"I know, but who would have thought the production team would deliberately prank the guests by putting up such a model at the entrance, just to give them a hard time?"

"The variety show hasn't even started its official run yet, and I've already been injured by the production team. And it's not a minor injury. Maybe I should wait until I'm fully recovered before continuing. After all, this variety show is dangerous..."

As he spoke, Liu Tianqing gasped again, looking as if his leg was in great pain.

Director Zhang Xiaohui, sitting off-screen, grinned and rolled his eyes. Don't think he didn't know that Liu Tianqing's leg was perfectly fine.

However, if Liu Tianqing really uses this as an excuse to refuse to participate in variety shows, there's nothing the production team can do.

Liu Tianqing's words simply meant that he wanted some benefits, which he would give her.

However, whether Liu Tianqing will ultimately receive it is uncertain.

Thinking of this, Director Zhang said, "The production team will compensate you one million, Ms. Liu, please hang in there."

Upon hearing "one million," Liu Tianqing's eyes lit up. The money was coming his way!

She immediately smiled and nodded to Director Zhang: "Don't worry, no matter how difficult it is, I will persevere."

After saying that, she limped into the room.

As the staff watched her walk away, they couldn't help but remind her, "Teacher Liu, you're limping on the wrong leg. It's your right leg, not your left."

Liu Tianqing paused, then immediately switched to the other leg: "I was just testing whether my right leg could hold on, and it seems it can still hold on for a while."

The staff member's lips twitched. This real person was completely different from the rumors circulating online.

Liu Tianqing was the first guest to arrive at the venue. Looking at the eight empty seats, she sat down in the one closest to her.

Following closely behind Liu Tianqing were two burly men, Yang Bao and Liu Hang, who were popular adventure streamers on Douyin.

Both of them were surprised when they saw Liu Tianqing.

Liu Tianqing doesn't seem to have the kind of physique that's active, nor does he have the kind of figure that's obsessed with being thin like many celebrities.

On the contrary, she has a well-proportioned and full figure, with curves in the right places and just the right amount of curves in the wrong places.

They both couldn't understand why Liu Tianqing would participate in this grueling variety show.

Yang Bao, always carefree, casually asked Liu Tianqing, "You don't look like someone who can survive in the wild, so why did you come to participate in this deadly variety show?"

Liu Hang also looked at her curiously; he was also eager to know what Liu Tianqing was thinking.

Seeing that the two meant no harm and were simply curious, Liu Tianqing was also inclined to talk to them.

He immediately glanced at the production crew watching from the side with a worried expression, opened his mouth as if to say something, then hesitated and let out a heavy sigh.

This only made the two of them even more curious.

"I only found out about this yesterday. I was still in the hospital yesterday when my agent rushed in and said that he had gotten me this variety show, and that if I didn't participate, I would have to pay a penalty of 800 million yuan."

“Over the years, I haven’t made much money. Let alone 8 million, I can’t even come up with 20,000… so I have no choice…”

At this point, she sobbed softly a few times, then forced a smile: "That's how it is. If I had a choice, I definitely wouldn't have come. I'm so weak and can't take care of myself..."

Director Zhang, standing off-set, twitched his lips slightly, his gaze towards Liu Tianqing filled with speechlessness.

He muttered under his breath, "What a 'weak and helpless' type, the kind that can kick hundreds of pounds away with one kick? It's only been a few minutes, and here we are again?"

Assistant director Lei Wencai's eyes were full of gossip when he saw this scene:

"Old Zhang, thank goodness the live stream hasn't started yet. It looks like she was discharged from the hospital to participate in a variety show, right? If this segment gets broadcast live, you'll probably get a lot of flak."

Director Zhang rolled his eyes: "What do you think she's putting on this show for? Isn't it just that she wants some benefits? If I'm not mistaken, she wants to terminate her contract with Xingxing Entertainment, and the penalty for breach of contract is not low."

Assistant Director Lei chuckled and patted Director Zhang on the shoulder: "Old Zhang, let's make a bet. I bet that as soon as Xingxing Entertainment confirms that she has participated in the variety show, they will immediately announce that she has amicably terminated her contract with the company."

Director Zhang looked incredulous: "Really? Didn't Xingxing Entertainment think highly of her? They spent so much money to force her in. Wouldn't it be a loss to terminate her contract?"

"You call bribing someone to come in and die, and that's what you call taking care of her?"

Assistant Director Lei looked at Director Zhang with a meaningful expression.

"Just wait and see."

As luck would have it, he happened to be at the city hospital yesterday, and even more coincidentally, his mother, who was pressuring him to get married, was feigning illness and staying in the room next to Liu Tianqing's.

When he went to see his elderly mother, he saw Liu Tianqing's agent looking for Liu Tianqing in a menacing manner. Then, by sheer coincidence (and being quite gossipy), he stood at the door of Liu Tianqing's hospital room and overheard a big secret about Xingxing Entertainment.

Moreover, the police later came looking for Liu Tianqing, and no one knew what Liu Tianqing was up to.

This Liu Tianqing is completely different from what's circulating online.

Liu Tianqing glanced at the production crew several times, and seeing that they didn't take any action, she raised her eyebrows, her expression fell, and she prepared to continue playing the victim.

Director Zhang felt a pang of pain in his teeth at that expression, and hurriedly called out to Liu Tianqing:

"Liu Tianqing, that's enough! I'll give you another 500,000 yuan as compensation. Just stop this act. But all the compensation will have to wait until you come back alive."

Liu Tianqing's worried expression vanished, and he looked at Director Zhang with a grin:

"Oh, Director Zhang, you should have said so earlier! As long as the money is right, no problem is a problem. I'd rather die than not get it back and then die."

There was no other way; she was just too poor, and the show's producers were eager to fleece her. It would be a shame not to take advantage of them.

Yang Bao and Liu Hang looked at the production crew with blank expressions, then at Liu Tianqing. They seemed to understand something, yet they also seemed to understand nothing at all.

After a moment, Liu Hang pointed at Liu Tianqing with a shocked expression: "Holy crap! You were just lying to us!"

Liu Tianqing shrugged: "Who lied to you? I was just telling the truth, I was just a little emotional."

Liu Hang was speechless. Was this what they called having a little more emotion? It was more like an overwhelming display of emotion!

Just then, a tall, beautiful woman wearing a tracksuit pushed open the door and walked in.

Upon seeing the brown bear model on the ground not far away, she couldn't help but let out a soft gasp, her voice trembling with fear: "Ah!! It's a bear! How scary!!"

The three who arrived first immediately turned their attention to her.

Liu Tianqing raised his eyebrows. Good heavens, this is Tao Qingshu, the real daughter of the female protagonist of this novel.

The system, Ah Bai, which had been silent all along, suddenly began to recite in Liu Tianqing's mind:

"This was the first time Liu Tianqing had seen such a beautiful woman, as pure as a white lotus. His eyes were filled with jealousy. This woman was too beautiful. Just then, Anton dragged two suitcases in and hurried in, calling out to the beautiful woman..."

As soon as System A-Bai finished speaking, Anton appeared at the door, panting, looking at Tao Qingshu with a helpless expression:

"Qingshu, why are you walking so fast? See? You got scared."

With tears in her eyes, Tao Qingshu looked at An Dong softly and weakly: "Brother An Dong, I just don't want people to wait too long."

Anton put down a suitcase, ruffled Tao Qingshu's hair, and said affectionately, "You're just too considerate of others."

Watching this scene, Liu Tianqing twitched his lips, feeling as if the food from the night before was churning in his stomach.

The system, Ah Bai, chuckled in her mind: "When you're reading a novel, you don't feel anything, but when real events happen in front of you, it feels like a bucket of oil has been poured on your face."

Liu Tianqing wiped his face and said to the system, Ah Bai, "From now on, don't read out these kinds of plots from novels to disgust me."

The system, Ah Bai, laughed wildly and did not respond.

Just then, actor Chu Yuze and fake heiress Tao Yansha arrived at the meeting point.

Tao Yansha glanced at Tao Qingshu with displeasure: "What trouble are you causing now?"

Chu Yuze frowned and looked at Tao Yansha disapprovingly: "Shasha, your sister was just frightened, why are you yelling at her?"
