Chapter 1: Death by Overtime, Rebirth into a Baby-Making Show

Lin Xiaoxiao opened her eyes to blinding studio lights and the deafening cheers of a live audience.

“Welcome to Season 1 of Heartbeat Baby-Making Camp! Ten lucky couples will live together for three months. Your mission? Fall in love… and make a baby on national television!”

The host was practically vibrating with excitement. Giant screens showed thousands of bullet comments flying past:

【Hahaha this show is too wild! Finally something real!】

【Who got paired with Gu Siye? That man is ice-cold and terrifying!】

【Lin Xiaoxiao? That blacklisted 18th-tier actress? She’s definitely getting kicked out in week one. Poor thing.】

Lin Xiaoxiao: “…”

She looked down. She was wearing an almost-transparent silk nightgown. Standing in front of her was a tall, indifferent man in black pajamas — Gu Siye, the youngest billionaire CEO in the country, rumored to be abstinent and terrifying.

The original owner had signed the contract out of desperation. Backing out now meant owing 50 million yuan in breach fees.

The host shoved a microphone in her face: “Xiaoxiao, any words for your new ‘husband’ on the very first night?”

Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, flashed a sweet smile at the camera, and said softly:

“Mr. Gu, I’m a little nervous. Should we start with holding hands? Or… do you want to get straight to the main event? The audience is waiting~”

The bullet screen exploded instantly:

【？？？ This woman is crazy!!】

【Direct attack! I stan her already!】

【Gu Siye’s face just turned black hahahaha】

【New favorite female guest unlocked. She has zero fear!】

Gu Siye narrowed his eyes, his voice low and dangerous: “You’re much bolder than I expected.”

Lin Xiaoxiao blinked innocently: “We signed the contract. If we don’t work hard, how can we win the prize money? I still have debts to pay.”

[Ding! Baby-Making Popularity System successfully bound!]

[Current popularity: 5 (pitifully low)]

[First mission: Raise Gu Siye’s favorability toward you by 10 points tonight. Reward: +1 Charm point, 1000 popularity points.]

Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes sparkled. She stepped closer, stood on her tiptoes, and whispered into his ear (perfect angle for every camera):

“Mr. Gu, I heard you’re very… capable. Shall we test that theory for the audience?”

The entire live broadcast room fell silent for three seconds before the comments flooded like a tsunami:

【Aaaaaahhhh she’s killing me!!】

【This is the most exciting first night in variety show history!】

【Gu Siye, don’t just stand there! Do something!!】

Gu Siye stared at her for a long moment, then suddenly bent down, scooped her up in a princess carry, and walked straight toward the master bedroom.

The host screamed: “Wow! Our first couple is already heading into the honeymoon suite on night one!”

Lin Xiaoxiao wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled at the camera like a little fox who had just stolen the fattest chicken.

Inside her head, the system cheered: [Host, your future is bright! Go make that baby and get rich!]
