I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 723 - 498: A Short Parting is Better than a New Marriage

[Summer God Hao, don't think you can get away with this by using magic! Hand over the young lady behind the camera!] 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

These jokers still had the energy to care about that. Xia Liang simply called out, "Everyone wants to see you. Come and say hello."

Luu Qi turned the camera around and said with a giggle, "Hello, everyone. I'm your Summer God Hao's filming assistant."

Seeing Luu Qi appear, the entire live stream chat exploded once again.

[Damn! Summer God Hao really is having an affair!]

[Boo-hoo! Did our three years of love mean nothing? Look at this faithless man!]

[I don't care! I want in on this too!]

...

Watching the chaotic live stream, Luu Qi didn't bother explaining. She chatted for a bit longer before ending the broadcast.

「After they returned home,」

Xia Liang received a call from an unknown number. He thought for a moment before answering.

"Hello."

A deep, polite male voice came from the other end of the line. "My apologies for the sudden call. May I ask if this is Mr. Xia Liang?"

He knows my name, so it's obviously not a wrong number. Xia Liang replied, "Yes, that's me. What can I do for you?"

The voice on the phone suddenly became thrilled. "Mr. Xia Liang, I'm Liu Wei, the director of the show *Happy Camp* from Fruit Satellite TV. We got your contact information from Feiyu TV. We'd like to invite you to record an episode with us. Would you be available?"

An invitation to be on a show? Xia Liang was quite surprised.

Fruit Satellite TV was one of the top television stations in the Empire, and *Happy Camp* was its ace program. Since its premiere in '97, it has remained hugely popular among young audiences and is even known as the nation's number one variety show. Over the past two decades, countless A-list celebrities from nearly the entire Chinese-speaking entertainment world had appeared on *Happy Camp*. Despite this, Xia Liang remained unfazed.

"When would the recording take place?"

"If you're available, we'd like to shoot next Monday. Today is already Friday, and this week's program is already set. If we can record on Monday, we'll be able to air the episode next Saturday."

"Alright, next Monday works. No problem."

Xia Liang didn't agree because he particularly wanted to be on the show. He was mainly in it for the 100 Work Points. Plus, it seemed Tian Yuanyuan was having a concert there, so he could take the opportunity to see her!

After they discussed the specific time and hung up, Luu Qi asked with wide, curious eyes, "What was that about? It sounded like you're going to record a show?"

"It's *Happy Camp*. They invited me to record an episode next Monday."

No sooner had Xia Liang finished speaking than Luu Qi's eyes lit up.

"Really? That's amazing! *Happy Camp* is a great show. It could further solidify your current popularity and get you even more recognition."

"Do I need it?" Xia Liang rolled his eyes. He was already famous beyond belief, and it wasn't just a fleeting trend.

After her initial excitement for Xia Liang, Luu Qi quickly calmed down.

"*Happy Camp* must have invited you because your popularity is skyrocketing right now. Your 'Walking in the Clouds' magic trick was so fantastical that everyone is talking about it. Having you on the show will generate enough hype to attract a huge audience."

"It's mutually beneficial. That's perfectly normal." Xia Liang nodded in understanding. I need the Work Points, and they need the ratings.

Luu Qi continued, "However, I've heard that *Happy Camp* can throw its weight around a bit. The show has so much influence that they can be arrogant. They invited you, but if your performance doesn't meet their expectations—or even if they're just not satisfied for any reason—your segment could be heavily edited or cut entirely."

After all, Luu Qi was now involved with the entertainment company founded by Xia Liang and Shi Qiang, so she was naturally familiar with these kinds of things. *Happy Camp* is made up of different segments, and Xia Liang was only participating in one. Cutting a single segment during production wouldn't affect the show's broadcast, and what Luu Qi described had indeed happened to guests before.

Xia Liang was completely unconcerned.

"Who do they think I am? Master Xia! If they really piss me off, I could make sure their show gets canceled. Besides, when it comes to magic, I only ever exceed expectations. No one will be disappointed with my performance."

"Alright, alright." Luu Qi rolled her eyes. "I know you're amazing, alright? Can we stop bragging now?"

「The next day.」

Xia Liang hurried to Fruit City.

After getting off the plane, Xia Liang dialed Tian Yuanyuan's number.

"Hello? Darling."

Tian Yuanyuan's tired voice came from the other end of the line.

Xia Liang got straight to the point. "I'm in Fruit City now."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Tian Yuanyuan, who had been resting in her hotel room, suddenly perked up. "Really?"

"Yeah! Where are you?" As Xia Liang spoke, he hailed a taxi.

"I'm at Willis Hotel, room 1240."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Xia Liang headed to the hotel in the taxi.

「Half an hour later.」

Arriving at the hotel, Xia Liang knocked on the door to her room. The door opened in less than ten seconds.

Seeing Xia Liang, Tian Yuanyuan leaped into his arms, clinging to him like a koala.

"Did you miss me?" Holding Tian Yuanyuan as he walked into the room, Xia Liang asked tenderly.

"Mhm." Tian Yuanyuan nodded vigorously.

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. It had been almost five months since they left Jingdu. But now that they were reunited, nothing else seemed to matter. Tian Yuanyuan simply felt blissful and content.
