Dating the Heartthrob Superstar-Chapter 45: Secretly Live Streaming

Chapter 45: Livestreaming Secretly

The town had been buzzing since yesterday—apparently, several celebrities had come to town to shoot a TV show. fгeewebnovёl.com

Zhou Linlin heard about this from her relatives, who had been discussing it for quite a while in the family chat group.

Yesterday, when she thought she saw Lin Qin, she dismissed it as hallucinating from reading too much CP fanfiction about Lin Qin and Meng Chao. It wasn’t until she heard the news about celebrities shooting a show that she realized Lin Qin and Meng Chao were in Nanjiang Town and were currently filming "We Are Together."

Zhou Linlin was in a cooking group chat called "Stir-Fried Vegetables," and yesterday she had been bragging about this to the group. Never in her wildest dreams did she think she’d one day be in such close proximity with Lin Qin and Meng Chao.

When her father called her to the peach orchard, Lin Qin was reluctant to go.

Her father mentioned that there was a surprise waiting for her at the orchard and told her not to get too excited. Zhou Linlin was grumbling internally at the time, wondering, how could she not be excited? Her dad had just landed a big order for 100 boxes of peaches. By the time she finished packing those boxes, her hands would probably fall off. How could anyone be excited about that?

But when she arrived at the orchard and saw the cameras, Zhou Linlin hadn’t quite processed what was going on. It wasn’t until she saw Lin Qin, Meng Chao, and four other celebrities she recognized walking toward her that she completely lost it and screamed out loud.

The orchard’s owner, Mr. Zhou, quickly apologized, "I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry. My daughter gets too excited when she sees celebrities. Please forgive her, really sorry about this."

Zhou Linlin jogged over, her breathing a bit erratic. She had to take a couple of deep breaths to calm herself down before apologizing, "Sorry, sorry, I got too excited."

Of course, no one present really minded.

After Mr. Zhou gave them some instructions, he let the celebrities begin picking ripe peaches. Since Wu Zhenzhen and Zhao Qin were girls, they were assigned to help Zhou Linlin pack the peach boxes.

Once everyone split up, the cameras followed them around.

Zhou Linlin couldn’t resist taking out her phone and opening the "Stir-Fried Vegetables" group to excitedly send a message.

[Ahhhhhh, "We Are Together" is being filmed in my family’s orchard! I just saw Lin Xiaotu and Meng!!]

The chat group immediately exploded—messages flooded in, quickly surpassing 99+ notifications.

Everyone started begging Zhou Linlin to snap some pictures of Lin Qin and Meng Chao interacting. Since "We Are Together" was still being recorded and hadn’t even set an air date yet, there had been no official promotions. CP fans of Meng Chao and Lin Qin had been refreshing the official Weibo accounts endlessly, hoping for crumbs of content, but neither Meng Chao nor Lin Qin were the kind to post frequently. The official account had only posted a few scenic pictures with text that didn’t offer much fanservice.

The CP fans were already starving for content. Now, hearing that Zhou Linlin was on set for the filming, they egged her on to take a few shots of Lin Qin and Meng Chao together to ease their cravings.

At just sixteen years old, Zhou Linlin was at an age where she loved showing off. Unable to resist the flattery and encouragement in the group chat, she agreed.

She glanced at Wu Zhenzhen and Zhao Qin, who were diligently working beside her, her eyes shifting slyly. Then she got up and started wandering into the orchard.

A wealthy girl in the chat group even sent Zhou Linlin several hundred yuan, asking her to start a livestream using her mobile data.

Zhou Linlin had a faint feeling that what she was doing wasn’t right, but the allure of the money she’d just received and the sweet-talking from her group members was too tempting. So, she secretly started a livestream.

The production staff didn’t notice her. Seeing that Zhou Linlin was the orchard owner’s daughter, they assumed she was there for some business and didn’t stop her.

Using her identity as the orchard owner’s daughter, Zhou Linlin roamed freely, searching for Lin Qin and Meng Chao.

Meanwhile, news of Zhou Linlin’s livestream began spreading online. Some rational fans kept sending her direct messages, urging her to stop the livestream. But there were others, less concerned about legality or morality, who thought it wasn’t a big deal and were enthusiastically cheering her on.

The fans of Meng Chao and Lin Qin were famously polite and level-headed. Seeing Zhou Linlin ignore their warnings, they reported her livestream account en masse. Some even messaged the show’s official Weibo admin, asking the production team to step in and stop her.

But all of this took time, and by then, Zhou Linlin had already found Lin Qin and Meng Chao.

She discreetly pointed her phone at the scene, capturing Lin Qin and Meng Chao together in the distance. Watching the barrage of comments on her livestream—messages like "Thank you so much for sharing!"—she felt quite pleased with herself.

Lin Qin and Meng Chao had no idea that aside from the production cameras shooting them, a girl was secretly livestreaming them.

Peach fuzz, common on honey peaches, tends to stick to the skin during picking.

Lin Qin had some peach fuzz stuck to his face and found his eyes itchy and prickly. He couldn’t resist raising his hand to rub them.

He forgot, though, that his hands were covered in peach fuzz, making things worse. Thankfully, Meng Chao noticed quickly and grabbed Lin Qin’s hand. "Don’t rub."

"My eyes are uncomfortable. I think some fuzz got in," Lin Qin said as he blinked, trying to relieve the itchiness.

"Hold on, I’ll take care of it," Meng Chao replied. He took a tissue from his pocket, dampened it with water, and carefully wiped around Lin Qin’s eyes.

The cool touch of the tissue soothed Lin Qin significantly.

From Zhou Linlin’s angle, she couldn’t hear their conversation. To her, it looked like Lin Qin had tilted his head up, and Meng Chao had leaned down—making it seem as though they were about to kiss.

The livestream chat went wild.

[They kissed!!! They actually kissed!!!]

[Ahhhhhh, this sugar is so sweet I can’t handle it!!!]

As the audience begged Zhou Linlin to get closer for a better shot, a staff member approached her. "Could you please turn off the livestream?"

Zhou Linlin jumped, dropping her phone in panic and letting out a shriek.

The livestream didn’t cut off, but her actions caught everyone’s attention, forcing the production to halt recording.

Standing there like a child who’d gotten in trouble, Zhou Linlin was visibly terrified. The production team, seeing her reaction, decided not to make a fuss. They simply told her, "Don’t do this again," and let her off the hook.

After the incident, the crew shot some scenic footage before wrapping up the orchard segment of the filming.

But the moment from Zhou Linlin’s livestream—where it looked like Lin Qin and Meng Chao had kissed—was quickly picked up by marketing accounts. Within minutes, trending topics such as "Meng Chao & Lin Qin Kiss" and "Meng Chao & Lin Qin Behind-the-Scenes Romance" were plastered across social media, climbing the hot search rankings. Eventually, a bold red "Trending" tag appeared next to the hashtags.

When Zhou Linlin got home and logged onto Weibo, she saw the massive online frenzy she had caused. Instead of feeling remorse, she was smug and even posted a proud status:

"I got my idols trending, hahaha!!!"
