Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate Chapter 214 - 212: Xu Jiali’s Choice

Xu Jiali looked a little hurt when she heard what Xie Fu Yao said, and she pouted.

"Does the team leader an to give away to Team 1?"

Xie Fu Yao offered a faint, picturesque smile for the cara. "Xu Jiali, that’s not what I ant. ’Give away’ is such a strong word. Beibei’s leg is still bothering her, isn’t it? It’s not really fair for her and Zhang Jingxing—just the two of them—to be up against the four of us. If you’re willing to help them out, then please do. If not, I won’t force you. All right?"

Even though Xie Fu Yao was smiling, Xu Jiali could sense the displeasure in his voice.

"I’ll pass on just ’helping out.’ But if you’re transferring to Team 1, I’ll agree to that. Do the rest of you agree?"

Though she looked aggrieved, Xu Jiali turned to look at ng Xiaoyi and Zhao Qi.

ng Xiaoyi smiled like a delicate flower. "Of course I agree. My heart goes out to Beibei with her injury. It’ll only feel fair to us if you go over."

’If it’s just with two guys, I’ll be the one they dote on.’ ng Xiaoyi was naturally quite pleased with this prospect.

Zhao Qi glared at them, annoyed. "You all talk too much. It’s like you’re the only ones with mouths. I’m staying out of this. I’m not the leader, so as long as you don’t make lose, I don’t care who you send!"

"And what if we lose?" Xu Jiali, ever the opportunist, asked.

"If we lose, we’ll sacrifice Xie Fu Yao to the heavens!" Zhao Qi snarled.

Everyone, "..."

’Heh. What a terrible joke.’

Xu Jiali looked aggrieved as she faced the cara. "Since everyone in Team 2 thinks I should go to Team 1... even though I’m a free person and shouldn’t be traded around... I know that on a reality show, I have to follow the team leader’s arrangents. So, from now on, I’m part of Team 1."

[Seriously! Wasn’t that a low blow from Xie Fu Yao? Anyone with eyes can see that Jiang Beibei and Xu Jiali don’t get along. Is she going to have an easy ti after being sent over there?]

[Xu Jiali is a person, not an object he can just trade away whenever he wants, right? Poor Xu Jiali! She looks so hurt but doesn’t dare to refuse! That’s what it’s like to be a nobody, I guess. So pitiful.]

[Maybe Xie Fu Yao is still getting used to being a leader. It’s his first ti organizing sothing like this, so I think a mistake is understandable. If Xu Jiali didn’t want to go, she could have just said so. No one was forcing her. You can’t just pin all the bla on Xie Fu Yao, can you?]

[Xie Fu Yao obviously ant well. Xu Jiali must have offended Jiang Beibei in that last scene. Now if she goes and helps Jiang Beibei, Jiang Beibei will probably cool off. Isn’t that a win-win for everyone?]

[Why can’t people see Brother Xie’s good intentions? Why do they have to twist his words?]

[My heart aches for Brother Xie, but he won’t say a word. He’s just swallowing all the hurt himself!]

[Isn’t Xu Jiali Doctor Wen’s follower? I suspect she was deliberately standing up for Doctor Wen just now!]

[I think so too! Since Xu Jiali is on Doctor Wen’s side, how can we let her be bullied?]

[Don’t jump to conclusions, people. Based on my extensive knowledge of reality TV—and of any incident involving Doctor Wen—this is probably heading for a twist!]

Xu Jiali took a deep breath and looked at the cara with a determined expression. "Since everyone thinks I should go to Team 1, then I’ll go to Team 1, starting now! From this mont on, I am a mber of Team 1. Director, is that allowed?"

It suddenly occurred to Xie Fu Yao and the others that if the director vetoed the move, all their discussion would be for nothing.

Fortunately, Director Wen just chuckled and waved his hand. "As long as you’re all happy with it."

Hearing this, Xie Fu Yao and his group breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite satisfied.

Xu Jiali jumped for joy. "Thank you, everyone! Thank you, Director! I’m on Team 1 now!"

"Xu Jiali, hurry up and co..." Jiang Beibei didn’t even finish her sentence before she saw Xu Jiali break into a sprint, running straight toward Wen Ying and Song Jiayan.

’Good thing I wore flats today.’

On cara, Xu Jiali’s voice rang out, loud and cheerful. "Sister Yingying, we’re a team now!"

"Song Jiayan, row the boat back here! I need to get on!"

Everyone: "..."

The production crew: "..."

[HAHAHA! The crew and the cast are all frozen! I’m dying! I never expected this girl to have such a talent for reality TV!]

[Talent for reality TV my ass, she’s clearly playing them all for fools! That acting was NICE!]

[So she was planning this from the start? She wanted to be on Doctor Wen’s team all along?]

[Xie Fu Yao, bet you’re stunned, huh? Jiang Beibei, you too? HAHAHAHA! This is so satisfying!]

[I think Xie Fu Yao and Jiang Beibei are about to explode! I hereby declare that from this mont on, I’m a fan of this girl!]

[Not only is she pretty, she’s quick-witted too! It figures that anyone who follows Doctor Wen would be extraordinary!]

Back in the bamboo grove, the expressions on Xie Fu Yao’s and Jiang Beibei’s faces were grim.

They never in a million years expected Xu Jiali to pull a stunt like this.

’She just ran off to Wen Ying’s side?’

’Without a single thought for what any of them felt?’

’Doesn’t she care what the viewers think either?’

Jiang Beibei’s hands were clenched into fists, her nails digging into her palms, but it brought her no sense of release.

Jiang Beibei suppressed her fury and looked plaintively at Xie Fu Yao. "Brother Fu Yao, is this even allowed by the rules?"

Xie Fu Yao’s jaw was aching.

’What could he say?’

’Take back what he’d said and make a fool of himself?’

’Impossible.’

’Call Xu Jiali back?’

’She had clearly plotted this; she would never co back.’

And so, the matter seed to have been settled in the most ridiculous way possible.

He had to swallow this loss.

He had to swallow this humiliation.

"Beibei, Xu Jiali is a free agent. We did agree to let her go to Team 1. We can’t go back on our word now, can we?"

Jiang Beibei felt like she was suffering in silence. She had been planning to work Xu Jiali to the bone when she arrived.

’Really make her sweat!’

But in the end, the girl didn’t give a damn about her.

She didn’t even give a damn about Xie Fu Yao.

Jiang Beibei and Xie Fu Yao’s gazes drifted toward Wen Ying’s team.

Song Jiayan, who had already rowed out a fair distance, was now paddling the boat back.

Xu Jiali boarded the boat gleefully, seemingly oblivious to the CREAK-CREAK of the hull.

The sa thought surfaced in both Jiang Beibei’s and Xie Fu Yao’s minds: ’That boat had better fall apart in the middle of the lake!’

’Let all those shaless people fall into the water!’

’Even if they don’t drown, they need to be utterly humiliated!’

’Let the viewers curse them out and mob them online!’

Xu Jiali couldn’t care less what they were thinking. After gleefully hopping onto the boat, she went straight to Wen Ying and gave her a big, loving hug.

Then she scooped Little White into her arms, looking utterly content.

"Sister Yingying, I’m so happy! I can’t believe Xie Fu Yao is actually a nice guy!"

Song Jiayan glanced warily toward Xie Fu Yao’s group and muttered, "Jiali, you should be a little more careful. They’re definitely not happy."

"Why should I care if they’re happy or not? As long as we’re happy, that’s all that matters, right?"
