Chapter 522: Chapter 522: The First Test for the Scion of the Wealthy Family Has Arrived

The assistant director’s execution was swift; within less than half an hour, the Weibo entry was freshly baked.

To add more buzz, he specially hired a new PR person to plan the post.

First off, the PR staffer came up with an explosive name for the post—

#Gu Family’s Young Master Appears on Deserted Island Wilderness Survival?! Is this Capital Competition or a Breakthrough in Human Nature?!#

Everyone was already tired of such headlines.

Gu Family’s Young Master?

The entertainment industry is never short of actors built up as rich second-generation personas.

Who knows which company, seeing Wilderness Survival on fire lately, shoved their own actor into the mix.

But when they clicked on the post with a mindset full of snark, they discovered something was amiss.

What?

The Crown Prince’s surname is Gu?

Could it be the Gu Family from the Capital, the century-old noble house, owning businesses so extensive they cover the nation, with enough assets to buy half of Hua Country?

Didn’t they say the Gu Family was short on members, barely producing one young master who the old man tiptoes around for fear he might melt in his mouth, keeps tied to his belt for fear he might fall, and whose name can’t even be found online?

This true Crown Prince actually popped up out of nowhere and even joined a Wilderness Survival reality show?

How attractive is this show anyway?

[Fake news, right? The Gu Family is truly a noble lineage; how could they let their carefully groomed heir participate in such a program?]

[Cou...ld it be the Gu Family is in trouble, using this to gain some fame? Just opening up the island to the outside was already outrageous enough.]

[I can’t help it, I must go and watch, I want to see what Prince Gu actually looks like!]

[+1, I’m really curious too; one can’t find any information about him online.]

Thus, under such momentum, the online audience in the live stream doubled yet again.

Now, not just the netizens keen on spectating joined in, but even the wealthy families opened the live stream out of curiosity.

After all, the Gu Family has a large family and a massive business; ordinary folks can’t even reach the steps to their doorway, but now they had the chance to see the future Family Head, how could they not join in the fun?

Maybe they’ll run into him someday, and they could curry some favor and make an acquaintance.

He Pingzhang was quite pleased with this.

He even started to enjoy his job.

No wonder so many were desperate to claw their way into this position—the feeling of manipulating millions with just a few words was exhilarating.

And on the large screen before him, a striking shade of platinum suddenly appeared.

— Zhao Lang was ready to land on the island.

He was dressed in a black mandarin-collar shirt, with climbing boots on his feet, and a clearing staff in hand; platinum strands of hair shimmered slightly in the dying embers of the sunset, like gold leaf bestowed by the heavens.

The camera just so happened to capture him climbing a rock reef.

The man stood on high ground looking into the distance, his eyes like thick ink melting in a cold pond, hazy and cool, instantly capturing the hearts of all the girls in the live stream.

[Holy shit, is that a real person? If one didn’t know better, they’d think it was a computer model made by the production crew.]

[!!! So Young Master Gu looks like this! Help, he’s way too handsome.]

[I imagined he’d be handsome, but I never thought he’d be this ridiculously good-looking.]

"Ahh, this is the best-looking person with platinum blonde hair I’ve ever seen! This color is quite bold, but it doesn’t stand out at all on his face!"

Not only did it not stand out, but it also added a mysterious and noble air to him.

Especially since he was also wearing a string of dark brown Buddha Beads on his chest.

This unprecedented contrast between traditional Chinese and modern styles was oddly harmonious and irresistible.

Instantly, Weibo was filled with various stunning photos of Zhao Lang from all angles.

Of course, some netizens noticed that this Young Master Gu bore a striking resemblance to the country boy from the "Flash Change" reality show that had gained a little popularity a while ago.

However, Zhao Lang’s transformation was quite successful—his hair dyed platinum blonde, his skin even whiter than before, his figure more muscular. Although they looked similar, their auras were completely different.

So much so that only a handful of netizens made a joke about it, and no one seriously linked the two together.

After all, one was a pampered descendant from a top-class noble family, a proud son of the heavens who had graduated from the world’s most prestigious academy, while the other had dropped out of high school and, aside from herding cows, was poor and could do nothing else.

Just as the live stream’s barrage reached a terrifying number and speed, Zhao Lang withdrew his gaze from the distance and waved to Pei Ye behind him.

"It’s getting late, let’s get going."

It would be even harder to find Jiang Li once it got dark.

But before they took a step, they were stopped by a staff member standing in front of them.

"What’s the matter?"

The staff member was already nervous, and upon hearing Zhao Lang speak, his body shook even more, too afraid to lift his head.

No kidding, this was the future Family Head of the Gu Family—the entire island, including this program, belonged to him. How could he not be intimidated?

But the new director was pushing him through the earpiece again, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and do his job.

"It’s like this..." the staff member licked his lips and said, "Our show has rules. Guests must hand over their personal items before going onto the island..."

Audience: Here it comes, here comes the first challenge for the noble Young Master Gu.

Everyone thought that Gu Yu would be displeased and show attitude. After all, the whole island was the Gu Family’s, even the cruise ship behind them that employed all the staff belonged to the Gu Family. Now the future Family Head of the Gu Family was being restricted from going onto the island, anyone would be unhappy about that.

However, Zhao Lang showed no displeasure; instead, he opened his hands slightly.

"Sure, check it out. I don’t have anything on me."

The staff member relaxed after checking Zhao Lang’s belongings and then turned his attention to the Buddha Beads pendant in front of him.

"Young Master Gu, this has to be taken off."

Zhao Lang was surprised, "I can’t even wear jewelry?"

"No, you can’t."

Zhao Lang nodded, but the next second he covered his mouth with his fist and coughed heavily until his face turned pale, then gasping for breath, he said:

"The thing is, I’ve been frail since I was young. This peace charm was specially sought by my family to save my life. I can’t even take it off to shower; I’m afraid I can’t remove it..."

"! No wonder Prince Gu looks so pale; he’s been sick since he was a child."

"Now I know why he’s been out of the public eye before; he must have been recuperating."

"Poor canary, born into such a good family, yet so sickly."

"What? A fragile ice beauty persona? Damn! I love it even more!"

Upon hearing this, the staff member who had just calmed down was instantly filled with panic again.

"Ah, if that’s the case, then please don’t take off something so important, Young Master Gu. You can keep it with you."
