I Am A Prodigy Chapter 402

"Do you have water? I'm thirsty," Ye Lingchen asked the crew member out of the blue.
The crew member was caught off guard, then nodded quickly. "Yes, yes!"
After that, she quickly passed the water to Ye Lingchen and watched as he drank it.
"God Ye, did you really experience those things?" She looked at Ye Lingchen skeptically, a hint of terror shown in her eyes.
The comments that disappeared started to pop out once more.
[F*ck! This is amazing. Where's God Ye's hometown?]
[Damn it, I've wet my pants. For God Ye to grow up in such an environment, wouldn't it drive anyone crazy?!]
[Is that for real? Does this world really have corpse herders?]
[Previous poster, corpse herders are really a thing. It was popular in the Mount Miao region. Could God Ye be from Mount Miao?]
[God Ye is amazing. Please continue, what happened to your corpse herding?]
…
The live stream was bustling with activity. The number of viewers had then risen to 50 thousand.
Ye Lingchen finished his drink. Feeling his mouth moistened, he continued, "Along the way, my second uncle kept reminding me to not turn my head around no matter what happened. He said that a person had three lamps, located on both shoulders and the top of the head. Once you turn around, then your breath will snuff out one lamp. These lamps are the three souls when others mention about three souls and seven spirits. Once it's snuffed out, your soul will be lost…"
In the car, the driver could not help but shiver. In front of the screens, many viewers had turned pale. They were scared, but at the same time wanted to continue listening, showing a determined expression.
Ye Lingchen continued telling the story. Of course, those were not his personal experiences. They were merely ghost stories he made up. However, when it came to ghost stories, the most important thing was the immersion. When telling it from the first perspective and basing it upon some facts, it was easy to get their attention.

Ring ring ring!
Right then, the ringing phone surprised those that were still immersed in the ghost story. The viewers were familiar with that part of the program. It was originally for added interaction that increased the viewership. However, at that moment, everyone was cursing in their hearts. 'Why must this stupid phone call happen at such a time.'
The crew member was similarly stunned and hesitantly took out her phone.
Meanwhile, deep within Mount Li was a plain-looking house. It had a symmetrical thatched roof that made it look like a mushroom, and was named the Mushroom Hut.
There were four guests inside. They were Huang Lei, He Jie, and Wei Daxun, the three regular guests, along with another young woman. She was a special guest that arrived before Ye Lingchen. At that moment, it was that young woman making the phone call with a frown on her face.
"Huh, this is weird. Based on the estimated time, they should be here. Leaving aside the part where they didn't call us, why aren't they picking up my call for so long?!"
"Do you know who is the other special guest?" He Jia asked out of curiosity.
The four of them exchanged glances, then shook their heads. The program team kept their lips tight on the arriving guest.
"It's connected!" the young woman announced softly, then spoke into the phone, "Hello, this is the mushroom house. Who might you be?"
Ye Lingchen took the phone from the crew member. When he heard the familiar voice from the other end of the phone, he was initially shocked, but then a mischievous grin crept onto the corner of his lips. "Hello, try guessing who am I?"
Just as he spoke, all three people in the car shuddered, then stared intently at Ye Lingchen, as though they had just seen a ghost. The comments in the live stream immediately halted, then erupted!

[F*ck, f*ck, f*ck! I've seen a ghost!]
[Who was talking just now? It gave me quite a scare.]
[I was drinking water earlier and spewed it everywhere. What's going on?]
[Did God Ye make that sound earlier? How can he make such a sound?]
…
"Ah! You're Sister Feifei?" The other end of the phone had no idea what was happening. An excited scream could be heard. "Sister Feifei, didn't you retire from the screen and stopped taking part in programs? Why are you here?"
"The program crew invited me, so I'm here," Ye Lingchen replied with a smile.
[F*ck! It's really God Ye's voice! F*ck!]
[I've peed my pants. I really peed my pants this time! 666…]
[Xiao Feifei's voice. That was really Xiao Feifei's voice. It's too similar.]
[It's Zhao Liangying on the other end of the call. Hahaha, she can't differentiate the sound, hahaha…]
[My mom is asking why I'm watching the show on my knees…]
…
"Sister Feifei, what do you want to eat? I'll have them prepare it for you over here," Zhao Liangying quickly asked.
"Are there any requirements on the orders?" Ye Lingchen asked.
"Huang Lei Sensei, it's my Sister Feifei, Princess Xiao. She's asking if she can order anything." Zhao Liangying's shouts could be heard over the phone.
"What? Princess Xiao is coming?" He Jia exclaimed in surprise. "You're both Queens of dramas, goddesses of the silver screen!"
"Wah wah wah, another beautiful woman is coming. This season's show is really great!" Wei Daxun could not hold in his excitement.
"Since Princess Xiao is coming, of course she can order anything. Have her order away!" Huang Lei announced generously.
Meanwhile, the viewers in the stream were getting cramps from laughing.
[Oh the naive Baby Ying. She's too cute.]
[God Ye, you're so cruel, but I like it. Wahahaha…]
[I can't take it anymore, I'm dying from laughter. Those people in the Mushroom Hut really think it's Xiao Feifei.]
[I wonder what their expression will look like when they see Ye Lingchen. I can't wait.]
Within that short time, Ye Lingchen's stream viewer count exceeded 100 thousand. As for the four in the Mushroom Hut, Zhao Liangying had the most viewers, with 1.2 million. Next was He Jia at 1 million, and Huang Lei at 700 thousand. Wei Daxun however, only had 150 thousand viewers.
They had their own popularity and the popularity from the marketing to rely on, whereas Ye Lingchen had only the measly 20 thousand followers. However, he quickly exceeded 100 thousand. That talent for variety shows was terrifying.
On Zhao Liangying's side, a lot of comments were notifying Baby Ying that she was scammed. However, Zhao Liangying remained naive and waited eagerly, paying no attention to the comments.
"Well, I'll be ordering then," Ye Lingchen said matter of factly, as though he was not pulling a prank. "I want to eat Peking duck, Sichuan Mapo tofu, West Lake fish in vinegar gravy, flying dragon soup, Wuwei smoked duck, Dongpo pork, steamed preserved meats, chili chicken, and Wuchang style steamed fish. We'll go with these 10 dishes."
"Sure thing!" Zhao Liangying carefully noted down the 10 dishes, then told Ye Lingchen, "Sister Feifei, come quickly. I'm waiting for you."
"Mm, thank you Sister Liangying…" Ye Lingchen replied.
[Shameless, truly shameless! He's taking advantage of my Baby Ying.]
[You beast. Animal!]
[Who can tell me how he did that? It's too amazing! I respect you!]
