In the evening, Sheng Yi returned home.

As usual, she kicked off her shoes upon entering, casually tossed her six-figure handbag onto a corner of the floor. She first turned on the TV and searched for one of her favorite American drama movies.

The fridge always had plenty of snacks on hand, thanks to Sheng Yi’s assistant who kept it well-stocked, so the supply of food in the fridge never ran out. As the movie began playing, she grabbed a bottle of soda and two boxes of duck necks, washed her hands, sat cross-legged on the thick carpet, and started munching duck necks while watching the movie.

Her life was always this leisurely; apart from the occasional fatigue from filming, most of the time she felt highly satisfied, both mentally and economically.

—Except for today.

After finishing the movie, it was already ten-thirty.

She wiped her mouth and picked up her phone to head to the bathroom. Today, her studio’s Weibo announced a live stream appointment; she planned to share her facial cleansing routine tonight, something she did once a week, and it just happened to be today.

Fans had been waiting for quite a while.

Before going live, she placed her phone on a stand, adjusted the angle, and then started the stream—

"Darling~"

In the camera view, Sheng Yi’s face still carried makeup, especially exquisite.

Sheng Yi was always on time for her live streams, and this time was no exception. As soon as her live room on a certain platform opened, the waiting fans quickly flooded in, with the viewer count jumping from 0 to three thousand in a few seconds, and then rapidly rising to over ten thousand viewers online.

[Yiyi baby, mommy loves you~]

[Ahhh—Yiyi, if you don’t return to Disney soon, there’ll be no princess left.]

[Fairy descending to the mortal world, it’s hard work!]

[This is beauty that even the original camera can’t contain~]

[I arrived just on time, Yiyi is so punctual. Gotta say, Yiyi is the most punctual celebrity when starting live streams, never keeping us waiting overtime.]

[Wifey, how are our parents’ health recently?]

[Hello everyone, this beautiful woman is my wife, we’re very much in love, quickly congratulate us, we’re getting married next year.]

[Please, can everyone stop typing so much, it’s blocking the screen, I can’t see our Yiyi’s world-class beauty.]

The live room was bustling.

The number of online viewers kept increasing.

Quickly hitting twenty thousand, still more people were pouring in.

However, the final viewership generally did not exceed twenty thousand.

Sheng Yi joined a certain platform three years ago, and had nearly thirty million fans there. She was quite diligent in her interactions, publishing content to attract followers every now and then. Only, since joining the platform, Sheng Yi had never carried out any live shopping, because she was a legitimate actress with roles in films. Although everyone knew live streaming was lucrative, and quite a few actors had started jumping into it, for a professional actress, it was really a hit to her value.

This directly affects an actress’s commercial value.

Once an actress’s commercial value is gone, it basically means they’re done for.

Moreover, given Sheng Yi’s current stature, naturally, she wouldn’t do something that would lower her value.

When she live streams, she simply shares her daily outfits with her fans, or routines like facial cleansing and makeup.

Fans particularly enjoyed these day-to-day shares, and thanks to them, her follower count went up a lot.

"Has everyone had their late-night snack?" Before starting to remove her makeup, Sheng Yi began chatting with the fans in the live room.

[What late-night snack, you’re my snack.]

[Has Yiyi already had a late-night snack? Be careful, Sister Ru might come after you through the internet.] Everyone knew Liu Ru regulated Sheng Yi’s figure quite strictly, and such things as late-night snacks were mostly forbidden.

Sheng Yi at her age wasn’t like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, once one fails to control their diet, it’s very easy to gain a bit of weight.

One viewer who just entered and didn’t recognize Sheng Yi commented: [Who is she? Some internet celebrity?]

Another asked: [Does she have a boyfriend?]

[No idea if she has a boyfriend, but I’m pursuing her.]

[Bro, what are you chasing, let’s give her to me, I have a low guarantee.]

[...]

Comments in the live room were amusing.

Reading these comments, Sheng Yi’s overly complicated mood from the afternoon eased quite a bit at this moment. From leaving the Gu Family to the car ride to the Gu Mansion, Yuanyuan had told her things she hadn’t known before, like: a big shot investing in the film crew, endorsement skincare products selling out, and finally landing as a luxury brand ambassador had skyrocketed to being the brand’s representative image.

Liu Ru once said that good luck was one thing, but no one can be perpetually overwhelmed with good fortune.
