As they were deeply engaged in their deductions, the staff behind them, enjoying the comfortable air conditioning but feeling anxious, whispered quietly.
"Are you guys just going to hide here the whole time? Do you want to go out?"
Mu Qiu handed them half a plate of fruit: "Just take it easy. Isn’t it comfortable staying here?"
The staff: ... How does this turn into a chit-chat session?
The accompanying director shook his head and whispered, "All the other contestants are outside."
"Outside is like a den of wolves. You see Sister Shu Ran, she lost twenty-five points just five minutes in, so if we small fries go out, won’t we be done for in an instant?
Relax, let’s wait until the fighting outside is almost over, then we can go out and pick up the leftovers. This way, the chances of winning are better."
The accompanying director didn’t feel any more relaxed, but reached out to take that half plate of fruit.
Even so, you know, blowing air conditioning and eating snacks is actually quite comfortable.
So just indulge a little while longer.
After eating snacks for a while longer, the accompanying director urged them again, and Mu Qiu finally decided to go out and join the battle.
Carrying a big mattress on her back, she sneakily retraced their steps, slowly approaching the Kite Road area.
Now Shu Ran is probably chasing Guan Yu and her friends wildly, so she shouldn’t stick around the Kite Road area, which means it’s just right for us to go now and not run into her.
And we won’t run into Li Yang, considering Li Yang’s intelligence according to her prediction.
But she didn’t expect that despite Li Yang and Shu Ran not being at Kite Road, others were.
Cheng Zhirang, Xu Cheng, and Bai Shu were hiding behind the curtains of a mushroom-shaped house opposite Kite Road, seemingly having rested a while, as there was no sweat on their foreheads.
The two sides confronted each other, and the two armies had once been allies but ended up breaking up, making the atmosphere particularly unusual.
Mu Qiu blocked Lin Lian, stepping back two steps, warily staring at Cheng Zhirang.
This situation...
Xu Cheng, Bai Shu, and Lin Lian exchanged a glance, finding the scene slightly bizarre.
A bit like a separated couple each taking their lover out shopping and then running into each other.
Not only did they feel this way, but everyone who saw this scene felt this way.
[Fight! Fight! Fight!]
[Brother Cheng: How dare you cheat on me with a pretty boy! Mu Qiu: How dare you cheat on me with a pretty boy AND a young girl!]
[Why am I suddenly so excited, could it be that deep down I enjoy seeing couples clash?]
[Hahahahaha Li Yang, don’t bend over!!]
[Don’t lower your head, the crown will fall, don’t bend over, the Moon Rabbit will show]
[Oh my God, hahahahahahaha, I saw it too! The short skirt of the Moon Rabbit on his back is too short!]
[Li Yang, don’t bend over! You’re gonna reveal something! I mean, the Moon Rabbit is gonna reveal something!]
[Yangyang: What does it matter to Yangyang if the Moon Rabbit reveals something]
[Awwwwww, you’re just a kid!]
[Li Yang is so pitiful, hahahahaha]
[Actually, Xu Cheng is a bit more pitiful]
[No, no, no, Shu Ran is the most pitiful right now, hahahahahaha]
[Wow, Guan Yu’s team really had a strategy, taking twenty-five points from Shu Ran in five minutes]
[If I hadn’t listened to the conversation between Mu Qiu and Lin Lian, I wouldn’t have understood it]
[I knew it! Someone’s absolutely keeping a low profile!]
[Lin Lian: I have a new understanding of variety shows, next time I’ll hide and enjoy air conditioning and watermelons too]
[Shu Ran is genuinely pitiful, hopping mad]
[Turns out this game isn’t boring at all, it’s not just about stamina]
[In this context, it’s best not to hibernate, otherwise, there’s a high likelihood of not being saved, leading to a direct drop in score]
[Damn, there’s jumping and high kicks; they won’t stop until they laugh me to death]
[Shu Ran resented having to high-kick in front of the three people and then got caught again, too pitiful]
[Guan Yu, aren’t you afraid of being strangled?]
[The above are all Guan Yu’s personal actions, please don’t apply these to the fans]
[Guan Yu flies bravely, bearing the pain himself]
[This episode is really exhausting both physically and mentally, I’m watching until I’m worn out]
[Lin Lian’s back was all wet, poor thing, might as well take it off]
[Director: You see, engineers, these sketchy characters, throw them out]
[Chuchu scores the lowest with only seven points, at most two rounds]
[Alright, Mu Qiu has met the enemy]
[Li Yang wants to chase Mu Qiu, Shu Ran wants to chase Guan Yu, Mu Qiu wants to chase Brother Cheng... strange, where’s Brother Huai?]
[Right, how come we haven’t seen Brother Huai? Hiding?]
[I’ve only seen the production crew not filming the guests because they’re lying down and not getting any footage, never have I seen guests disappear from hiding]
[Has Jiang Zhufeng found Brother Huai?]
[Actually, hiding is quite good, as long as you don’t lose points, Chuchu will definitely be the last]
[Guan Yu against all odds, and now probably has the lowest of the six regular MCs, which is Brother Huai?]
[Hahahahaha, does Brother Huai even know about the situation outside? Does he think someone always has a lower score than him?]
[Brother Huai: You’re forcing me to come out of hiding]
[Guan Yu is amazing, managing to turn the score from seven to twenty-seven]
[Oh no, Mu Qiu is about to take revenge]
[Xu Cheng, this show is not just about these dangerous female contestants, don’t lose hope in women]
[I must admit, when they started tying Xu Cheng up, I got really excited and leaned towards the screen wanting to lift his hem / I’m just a good person providing benefits for the majority of my female compatriots.jpg]
[Mu Qiu, just rush up and do it!]
[The moment Brother Cheng dragged the mattress while walking, really looked like a split-personality psycho killer]
[Li Yang, your intelligence finally returned, knowing to go back and find people]
[...]
After a brief silence and stare-off between the two teams, Mu Qiu cautiously asked, "What are you guys planning, drawing swords to spill blood here?"
Cheng Zhirang, speaking as the representative, shook his head, his manner gentle and polite: "We’re waiting for you to come and discuss peace."
"Peace talks?"
"Perhaps we can also let go of past grievances and form an alliance again?"
Mu Qiu, expressionless, asked: "Can you tell me how you have the nerve to say that? Not long ago, you just captured me and dragged me for dozens of meters, right here!"
Cheng Zhirang’s expression remained unchanged: "That’s why I said let go of past grievances."
"Earlier, Li Yang said I have no shame, I think those words should be directed at you. You stab me, then ask me to forget about it and be with you. You think as beautifully as you look, huh?"
The onlookers: "..."
Insult as you may, but why is there a side of flattery in there.
"How about we save the game for now?" His voice remained gentle, even with a hint of a smile, "Let’s endure each other, cooperate temporarily, and by the end, settle whatever scores need settling. How about that?"
When he looked at someone so earnestly and spoke with such manners, it was simply irresistible.
Mu Qiu opened her mouth, unable to find words to refuse, glanced at Lin Lian, who blinked but didn’t comment, leaving her to murmur.
"I suspect you just admire my intelligence."
Cheng Zhirang smiled: "I admire you."
Others: Ooh——
In the footage, Mu Qiu’s face immediately blushed.
