Chapter 356: You Don’t Dare, I Dare
"What kind of goddess is this! I want to marry Melody Monroe so bad!"
"Whoever marries Melody Monroe must have saved the Milky Way!"
"Goddess, I love you!"
A flood of confessions and virtual support sticks filled the screen.
These days, Melody Monroe’s fanbase had surpassed twenty million, cementing her status as a top-trending young actress.
After a busy hour, Melody Monroe had prepared pan-fried small fish, fish soup, braised fish belly, five-spice fish bones, and a side of stir-fried wild greens.
This was more than enough fish for six people.
At first, everyone had assumed that food cooked in a place like this would be all for show and completely inedible—just an act for the program.
But as they watched their screens, their mouths watering, while the six of them devoured the fish, leaving nothing but a pile of bones, all they could do was gulp.
The goddess had revealed another skill: she could cook! And cook deliciously, at that.
...
Rose Shaw and Keith Coleman watched the livestream’s incredible results. Neither had anticipated this outcome; they never imagined Melody Monroe would blow up like this.
Her popularity couldn’t possibly have reached this level based on the drama *Warm Wind* alone.
"Rose, it was a brilliant move for you to take on this show," Keith Coleman immediately flattered.
"This show was almost sabotaged by certain people!" Rose Shaw said, her expression grim. "Today’s broadcast is over, but there’s bound to be more negative press. Yesterday, they accused Melody of faking a ’genius’ persona. Who knows what they’ll come up with today."
"Relax, it’s nothing major."
"Then what do you consider a major problem?"
"To me, the biggest problem right now is... you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
"And which number girlfriend would I be?"
"You’d be my one and only girlfriend."
"I can handle a little negative press. Stay out of it," Rose Shaw warned, turning and walking toward her car.
Keith Coleman was about to chase after her when his phone rang.
He glanced at the screen, saw it was an international call, and immediately hung up.
Ever since returning to the country, he hadn’t been surrounded by his usual entourage of beautiful women. Now that he had his sights set on Rose Shaw, he had no desire to chase anyone else.
He had to win Rose Shaw over! He was determined to succeed.
This woman had awakened his fierce desire for conquest!
...
Eileen Scott truly couldn’t understand. They were on the same show, so why was Melody Monroe’s stream so popular while hers was doing so poorly?
’This has to be a setup by the production team!’
’Why didn’t Melody Monroe have to draw for a tent? And how convenient that her campsite just happened to have a bamboo forest.’
’And then the second task was to cook a meal in the middle of nowhere?’
’So many other teams failed to complete the task, but Melody Monroe’s team just happened to succeed!’
’Isn’t it obvious this was all deliberate?’
’Anyone with half a brain could see it.’
’What’s the point of even filming this show anymore?’
Their team had a schedule, taking turns with the livestream. It was currently another member’s turn. But the more Eileen Scott thought about it, the more wrong it felt. She couldn’t stomach the injustice.
She suddenly strode forward and shoved her teammate, who was in the middle of their broadcast, out of the way.
"I think there’s something fishy going on with this production team! They gathered all of us here just to be props for Melody Monroe! Could their intention to boost her popularity be any more obvious?!"
"If you people have any sense at all, just think about it for a second and you’ll see what’s going on!"
"You all probably don’t know what Melody Monroe is really like, do you? Well, I’m about to show you her true colors!"
"Eileen Scott, what on earth are you doing?"
"What am I doing? You’re all furious but don’t have the guts to say anything. Well, I do!"
