At eleven o'clock in the evening, lying on the soft big bed, the faint mint fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, and since getting the system, Lin Chen tasted insomnia for the first time.

Coincidentally, the last time he had insomnia was the night he got the system.

As he was about to start a new phase of his life with a job search for a job in the job market early the next morning, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep for hours with anticipation and fear for the future.

Tonight, Lin Chen, who can be called a successful person, will no longer have any fears about the future, and with the assistance of the system, his future is bright. However, he still suffered from insomnia. Not fear tomorrow, but disappointment with today.

A lot of things happened today, I came to Tianhai from Yulan again, and got a chance to participate in a celebrity variety show; I participated in a meeting full of sincerity, and I got a highest-grade 20,000 red envelopes; I met Erke for the first time who knew Xu Yu, and at the dinner table, I found that Erke was more beautiful than the live broadcast room, with a gentle temperament, a sweet smile, and the ability to fight between bigwigs.

Back at the hotel, he reached an agreement with the principal that he was about to sign his big anchor contract, and his income and status skyrocketed. also met a substitute, I don't know if it was lucky or unfortunate Xiang Chen, and finally got a piece of advice that I already knew: Don't be too deeply involved with the treasure island star.

In just a dozen hours, there were compliments, advice, meeting friends, getting a big contract, and the days were incredible. But in the midst of enrichment, Lin Chen always had an inexplicable depression in his heart.

Xiang Chen's appearance told him that he was not as important as he thought. The world is too big for anyone to be unique, and there is always a similar alternative to be found. The seed plan that he was unwilling to accept would be replaced by someone else.

With the system, Lin Chen is indeed a lucky person, but there is not much in this world, that is, there are many lucky people.

Xiang Chen, who became the core of the seed plan and was recommended by the principal, was he a lucky person?

Yes, compared to the previous obscurity, Xiang Chen is definitely a lucky person, and the degree of luck is even higher than that of the deity Lin Chen.

Even if he has a system in his body, if he wants to become a big star, Lin Chen still has to learn and put in more effort to succeed.

What about Xiang Chen?

He doesn't need to do anything, as long as he obeys the orders step by step, he can naturally grow into a second-tier star, and if he is lucky, he can put down his dignity and rush into the first line.

One easily grew into a second-tier superstar, and the other stumbled into the entertainment industry with great effort, and it is clear who the lucky one is at a glance.

Of course, Lin Chen can't look down on this kind of luck, after experiencing the trip to Huayi, he firmly remembers a point of view: never expect shortcuts, behind shortcuts is the price he can't afford.

The seed program is a shortcut, and with the help of the principal's resources, he can grow quickly. Become an Internet celebrity in three months, become a popular fried chicken in the entertainment industry in half a year, be popular in half the sky in one year, hit the second line in two years, and hit the first line in three years, which seems glamorous.

And at what cost?

can no longer be alone, can only survive in the way of the entertainment industry, treat yourself as a commodity, and sell it at a good price when needed. Dignity, equality, and fairness will leave him and become a pawn in the hands of the big guys.

Even for the sake of a glimmer of freedom, he would not agree to join the seed program, be attacked, slandered, and abused.

In comparison, what really made it difficult for him to fall asleep was Ercao.

Lin Chen must admit that Erke meets all his requirements for the other half, with exquisite appearance, sweet and lovely temperament, lively and active personality, slender and fair-skinned figure, and a sweet fragrance when approaching.

When the two first came into contact, no one knew what Erke's thoughts were, but he had the intention of further development.

Lin Chen sincerely hoped that the two could establish a good friendship in their interactions, and at the right time, he took the initiative to confess and turn friendship into love. After completing the system tasks, you can get married, have children, and live a happy life.

Because of expectations, he didn't refute or defend when he joked with Feng Xingyun, but acquiesced, expecting Feng Xingyun to be the beginning of changing the relationship between the two. And all of this, with the departure of Ercao from the panda, came to naught.

From the return of the panda to the betta, Erke gave up not only the platform resources, but also Lin Chen's expectations.

Lin Chen realized that unlike his tenderness, perhaps in Erke's heart, he was just an ordinary colleague.

At the beginning of love, the goddess who likes it doesn't like herself, which is enough to make people melancholy. Even after more than a month, the disappointment in my heart has not dissipated much, and until today, Erke took the initiative to ask him to meet.

After getting Ercao's call, the flame in Lin Chen's heart rekindled, and he thought that the two of them would be able to continue their relationship. The result? It's just a feast.

Yes, for him, meeting with Er Ke is a Hongmen banquet, because there is an uninvited guest at the dinner table: Mr. Chen.

Chen is always the boss of Betta, and Betta is Panda's biggest competitor, and it can even be said that it is a mortal enemy. This grudge has continued a few years ago, when the principal poached dozens of well-known anchors from Betta.

Although it is not explicitly stated, whether it is a betta fish or a panda, it is not allowed for a popular anchor to meet with the boss of the enemy station. Once discovered, there is a high chance that it will be blocked.

Having worked on two platforms, it is impossible for Er Ke not to know this secret, but she still invited Lin Chen instead of Mr. Chen.

Lin Chen didn't want to think about Erke's mood when he called, whether he hesitated, or couldn't help himself, and the final result was: she made an invitation call.

During the phone call, didn't Er Ke know the result of the meeting between the two? Doesn't it clear that if the matter is exposed, Lin Chen can no longer be regarded by the panda as his own son? Haven't you thought that Lin Chen would be banned by the panda because of this party?

Maybe he thought about it, maybe he didn't think about it, he didn't know.

However, the reminder on the phone made Lin Chen have a little more expectation, as an anchor, he knew that the anchor had no right to speak in front of the platform, Mr. Chen came forward, and Erke really had no room to refuse, and he could barely understand.

However, more than two hours have passed since the end of the meeting, a full one hundred and twenty minutes, and he has not received a call from Erkao, nor has he received a message from Erkao, not even an expression. It was as if she had disappeared from the panda platform a month earlier, and there was no trace of her again.

He can forgive Erke's involuntary body, he can also forgive Erke's confusion, and even forgive Erke's apology, but he can't forgive the other party's indifference. The call of hope never appeared, and Lin Chen's heart sank little by little.

"Erjiao, am I really just an ordinary colleague in your mind?" Lin Chen muttered as he took the mobile phone next to his pillow and looked at the smiling face on the screen.

He didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe that he was not as important as he imagined in the other party's heart.

First love is always bitter, and the fruitless crush is even more bitter, and the sourness inadvertently burrows into his mind, breaks into his heart, stirring him tossing and turning, and he can't sleep at night, this is the truth of his insomnia.

"Sleep, everything will pass, the sun will rise, and it will be a new day. Put the phone back on the head of the bed and force yourself to turn your head and get the face out of your mind.

In life, there are other things worth pursuing besides love.

At this time, the mobile phone suddenly shook and made a 'ding......' sound.

"Is it Ercaus?"

Lin Chen quickly grabbed his mobile phone and looked at the screen expectantly, only to see a few clear words on the screen: "Hi, 702227......"
