My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 239

She almost forgot!

Orion still thought she was engaged to Matthew, didn't he? Could it be that he had been holding back because of that? She needed to clear things up with him as soon as possible...

"Knock, knock, knock.”

"Xan, are you back?”

"Uncle!”

She bolted off the bed and swung the door open. Oliver was finally relieved as he saw her, "Xan, you're home! You scared the heck out of me!”

"Why didn't you answer when I was knocking?”

"I just got back from dinner.”

As Xanthea finished, her eyes caught the man standing behind her uncle.

His dark, obsidian-like eyes were intensely fixed on her, as if, were it not for her uncle's presence, he could devour her whole. His gaze made her avert her eyes and her heartbeat raced.

The wind downstairs must not have blown him sober yet.

"Alright.” Oliver stepped inside and turned to give Orion a grateful smile, "Chairman Lockwood, sorry to bother you for tonight.”

"It's Okay.”

Orion responded, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on Xanthea, and there was no attempt in hiding it.

Oliver paused. Seeing this situation, Xanthea quickly tried to close the door, only for it to be stopped abruptly by the man's firm hand, “What, what was he doing?

"What is it?”

Oliver opened the folder he was carrying, "I never imagined a top-rated national hit show like Adventure Blitz: Two Days, One Night would invite you to participate in their next episode. They've only invited the hottest rising actors or seasoned stars before. You're the youngest and least experienced artist they've invited so far, which shows how much they recognize your potential.”

"This show is a live broadcast reality show featuring celebrities, and since it aired, it has maintained a top spot in the ratings. Every episode becomes a hot topic, drawing massive viewership that even saved the nearly bankrupt LAKU network, and turned it into the top streaming platform like this today.”

“I know you’ve been eager to make a name for yourself, so I came to you as soon as we got the invitation. But whether you go or not is up to you.”

“The production of this show can be extremely demanding. Each episode, the crew flies the guests to a designated location, confiscates their food and phones, and isolates them within the world of Adventure Blitz: Two Days, One Night.

Without providing any food or water, guests must complete various challenging tasks. Even if you regret it, there’s no escaping because the camp is completely closed off.

This requires you to have some survival skills akin to those needed in the wilderness. There have been guests in the past who, due to a lack of life experience, exhausted a lot of energy and fainted from hunger during the show. Some even suffered psychological trauma from the program team's prank games, and dared not participate in variety shows again.
