But staying quiet all the ti isn’t possible.
Guan Yu’s eyes twirled around and landed on Mu Qiu.
"Our task is to find the God’s perspective. It should an seeing things that even we ourselves cannot see, right? As long as there’s a discrepancy in information, there will be a flaw. Let’s start by playing a round of Werewolf, guessing who might possibly be God."
Mu Qiu, noticing Guan Yu staring at her as she spoke, felt a chill down her spine: "Sister Guan Yu, why are you looking at ? I’m a good villager!"
Guan Yu squinted: "But why does this episode’s na match your previous group na?"
She ford a group in the previous episode???
...with the dark green plush monkey toy hanging on the suitcase?
Everyone present couldn’t help but laugh upon realizing this.
Mu Qiu’s lips twitched, "I reasonably suspect the director is framing . Starting off by targeting with such a specific na, I’m not that stupid."
"Maybe they’re hoping we outsmart ourselves by being too clever?"
"...Anyway, you’re fixated on , right? Then I guess Brother Cheng."
"Hmm???" Everyone turned to look at her.
Cheng Zhirang also tilted his head to look at her.
Mu Qiu remained unfazed: "Those who are exceptionally handso are usually important characters."
Guan Yu: "......I almost believed you."
Cheng Zhirang appeared hurt, his alluring eyes looked gently and plaintively at Mu Qiu. Gosh, the level of sniper fire from those eyes made her heart flutter.
"You’ve never liked my appearance, I know that. I never hoped you’d change your mind because of my looks," Cheng Zhirang half-closed his eyes, his fluttering eyelashes casting shadows on his eyelids. His voice was gentle and slow, as if in a state of utter hopelessness: "Even on yesterday’s marriage anniversary, I waited for you all day at ho, but you went out with him... I still wanted to pretend not to know."
Look, how humbly in love I am.
However, the Mu Qiu who suddenly faced a marriage anniversary and apparent "affair" wasn’t moved at all.
She was so shocked by the self-scripted plot that her eyes rounded wide.
Guan Yu, clenching her fist, sized her up and down with a smirk: "So, are you such an oblivious blind person?"
"......"
Isn’t that exactly being a blind fool? Guarding such a face yet still wandering off recklessly, you’re either blind or foolish.
She paused for a mont: "I can explain."
"Don’t worry, I don’t bla you," Cheng Zhirang chid in, his acting ca naturally, so much that Mu Qiu dared not look into his eyes.
[Great, I’ve already started to feel angry]
[My mouth was agape for so long, ’dumbfounded’ is indeed a wonderful adjective]
[I’ve already imrsed myself in it, wishing to raise my hand and slap myself a few tis]
[I’m more curious if that guy next door isn’t our Su Yan, right?!]
[Please don’t be so lodramatic?!]
[Did Changtong really invest in such a lodramatic variety show? Thinking using internet fiction tropes would be profitable?]
[I think it’s not that simple; surely there’s more to co]
[It’s unlikely Changtong would invest in a program with so little substance]
[No way! My Huai Bao is still so young, how did he suddenly get married and have kids?!]
[Where are the guests, where are the guests?! The guests I’ve been waiting for?!]
Guan Yu, having enjoyed Cheng Zhirang’s performance, turned to Shi Yuhuai and slamd the table angrily: "Look at soone else’s good man! And you?! Do you not feel ashad, Wang Tiezhu?!"
Wang *Shi Yuhuai* Tiezhu’s mouth was stiff: "......We’re different."
The identity setting is just different, isn’t it? What can he do?!
Li Yang, having watched their theatrical routine in amazent, applauded and then sat upright, adopting the posture of a privileged second-generation rich kid... and distanced himself a bit from his disdainful Cinderella-like girlfriend nearby.
Then he dragged another question from the corners of his mind, representing a broad fan base, eagerly asking: "Aren’t we supposed to have three guests? The director said they’re already in place, why aren’t they coming?"
Right, there are supposed to be three guests.
Without any trace of the guests during the entire session, Shu Ran seized the opportunity to speak, "Could it be we need to go out and find them?"
"Perhaps they only appear during certain plot triggers."
"What should we do now?"
This is everyone’s first ti playing such a story-driven variety show requiring performance, so they had to discuss to align their paths.
After so discussion, the six looked around the scenic villa to ensure the guests weren’t hiding inside, then had to head out.
This is next to the agritourism from last night... about ten kiloters away in a moderately prosperous village that reportedly produced many billionaires shortly after the opening up. With a highway leading directly to Ro and picturesque villas sprinkled around, it clearly is a great vacation spot.
Of course, one must ignore certain facades that are re shells with rundown factories within.
Mu Qiu walking beside Cheng Zhirang, observing the villas with personal garages, ntally took notes—apparently, the life of a domineering CEO is a bit more flashy than she imagined. Next ti she describes the male lead’s cool extravagance, more detail is needed.
Li Yang slowly edged towards them, grimacing as he asked Cheng Zhirang, "Brother Cheng, do you think this elimination system ans there’s a senior watching our performance sowhere? I’ve never learned acting and feel a bit anxious."
Typically, rising stars like him usually diversify their careers, and switching to acting is inevitable. Li Yang’s team was preparing to find scripts for him, which is why they sent him to this variety show in the first place.
Entering the show to be observed by so many veteran actors, with the potential of being sent off to spar with them... no, that can’t even be considered sparring, that would be a reputational hit and career blow. If his acting is comnted badly by a veteran, moving into film and television becos nearly impossible.
Cheng Zhirang nodded: "If elimination exists, they’re definitely watching our acting."
Li Yang’s eyes widened, nearly fainting from worry.
"But it won’t be that strict," Cheng Zhirang continued unhurriedly, "Most of us here haven’t acted before, so maybe the evaluation criteria from the show are different than we think."
That makes sense; the only veteran here is Cheng Zhirang, who was also given such a lodramatic storyline and character. Whether he pulls it off remains to be seen.
Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
The others also nodded in agreent, feeling a bit less tense.
They were just about to relax and walk through the lodramatic plot when Guan Yu and Shu Ran, who were walking ahead, suddenly scread.
Mu Qiu shivered, instinctively looking upfront.
In front of them lay a "body" on the road.
