Novel Full Chapter 389: Intimate Contact
The atmosphere in Ling Sheng’s team was very joyful. After she won, she raised her hand excitedly, proclaiming that she wanted to be the father of Zhu Yingtai. “I want to be Zhu Yuanwai.”
Ji Fanchen had always been calm. Upon hearing that she wanted to be the parent, he did not react much. He nodded and tersely acknowledged it.
Cheng Ye wrinkled his nose. How nice would it be if she was the Zhu Family’s daughter? Why did she have to be the parent?
Then, just as the production team thought it was time to decide about the remaining two roles with a simple rock-paper-scissors game, Ling Sheng spoke again and pointed at Cheng Ye. “You will be Liang Shanbo. Brother Chen, you will be Zhu Yingtai.”
The production team burst out laughing. Little Fairy, you guys don’t act according to common sense. You obviously know that there’s a scene midway where Liang Shanbo carries Zhu Yingtai. Do you want to tire your younger brother out? Indeed, you’re an expert at screwing over your younger brother.
Old Qian looked at Ling Sheng with a satisfied expression. This lady was not bad. She had been born to do variety shows. Look at Gu Shen’s team. They really thought that the character allocation should be decided by rock-paper-scissors. They had already distributed the roles according to the outcome. Who knew that they would be designated by the winner?
Gu Shen had suggested learning from Ling Sheng’s group. Upon hearing Ling Sheng’s excited voice, he could not hold it in anymore. However, he remained calm in front of the camera.
In the end, Shangguan Yu became Liang Shanbo. He took a look at the couple beside him and could feel that the atmosphere between the two of them was a little awkward. Director Qian had probably deliberately hired the two of them to increase the discussions about the show.
He had heard people in the entertainment circle say that Gu Shen and Luo Xin had dated and broken up several times. It was quite certain that they would reconcile in two days.
However, Gu Shen’s attitude was a little too cold-blooded and heartless. Liang Shanbo had a scene with Zhu Yingtai, yet he had to run behind her back. As her ex-boyfriend, did he really not care that his ex-girlfriend, Luo Xin, had intimate contact with other men?
After the six of them changed into their respective costumes, the music of “The Butterfly Lovers” started playing and the first round officially started.
There were three small stages in total. The first stage involved hitting the back of the opponent’s hand. The second stage involved acting opposite each other. The backer had to blow out the candles, and the lines had to be delivered well. The third stage involved throwing darts and blowing up three balloons.
Before the song ended, one had to clear all the stages. Whoever cleared the first stage would be considered the winner of this round and would be rewarded with 10 points per person.
Ling Sheng’s team would play the game first. In the first round, Zhu Yuanwai—the father—would play a game of ‘slap the back of the opponent’s hand’—a game of reflexes where both parties would place their hands together. One party would try to slap the back of the other’s hand while the other party tried to dodge. One had to win and hit the opponent’s hand before they could start the second round.
Ling Sheng was the attacker, while Shangguan Yu was the defender. The other two had pushed him to do this, so he knew that Ling Sheng had some kind of conflict with them.
The relationship between the three of them was already tense, and they had even gone on a variety show to play games together. This was simply hell. Old Qian was really naughty. No wonder he had been brought here. If there had been only young people, no one would have been able to control the situation.
The production crew saw that Ling Sheng had missed her shot once, but she had just missed her shot again. Her face was full of anger, as though she was saying, I won’t hit you. Humph, I won’t let you have a lover in the end. How dare you kidnap my daughter?
When the zither tune to “The Butterfly Lovers” ended, Cheng Ye was extremely anxious. Even Ji Fanchen was a little anxious, as he knew that she had done this on purpose.
The production team was stunned by her actions. When they saw that Shangguan Yu had stopped defending himself in the end, they looked at him as though they were begging him to hit her. However, she could not hit him. She could not hit him even if he placed the back of his hand in front of her.
