Chapter 38: Variety Preview
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a round of laughter from the fans, they could not help but lament bitterly that they had spent money on buying their idol’s album and stayed up all night to help their idol fight back. In the end, they were just fans who could only watch their idol from afar.
Some people didn’t even pay attention to their idols on Weibo. They didn’t even know how to fight for the leaderboards or repel anti-fans, yet they could live with their idol every day. Was this the injustice of the world?
Then, some fans said, “But, don’t you think that the brother and sister are very close?”
Everyone agreed.
Yuan Qing understood the fans’ mentality very well. It was hard for them to imagine that their idol would dote on another woman and even risk his life for her. But if this woman was his biological sister, then it was different. As long as this sister was obedient and not willful, his fans would love her too.
Coincidentally, “The Side I Don’t Know” was having a promotional period, so Yuan Qing often posted some content about Yu Yao on Weibo. Sometimes, she would even add one or two photos. However, these photos were very private and never revealed Yu Yao’s face.
For example, during the first class one morning, Yu Yao had been sitting in the front row, dozing off with her eyes open. When she was asked by her teacher to answer questions, she was so surprised that she jumped up.
When someone asked Yu Yao a question, she would become so anxious that she scratched her ears and cheeks—she just couldn’t explain the answer clearly.
Of course, there were also times when Yu Jue went to university to look for Yu Yao to grab a bite with her or pick her up from class. The two of them would wear sunglasses and a mask to cover their faces. The two of them would be tightly wrapped up and fly across campus like spies…
Gradually, these Weibo posts attracted even more attention, and even the variety program’s team often reposted them.
Hence, in the eyes of the netizens, Yu Yao had gotten rid of some of the controversy of being Yu Jue’s younger sister and had become an ordinary but cute university student. They also looked forward to seeing her on the variety show.
The production team’s efficiency did not disappoint the netizens. They had already decided on all the guests they wanted to work with and started to film an introductory video for “The Side I Don’t Know.”
The introductory video was an introduction of the guests before the show officially started airing. It was also to entice the fans to watch the whole show.
The atmosphere in the other groups of guests was filled with warmth. The family members of the celebrities expressed that they hoped to use this opportunity to spend more time together as a family so that they could make more beautiful memories together.
The style of Yu Jue and Yu Yao’s group was extraordinary. Although the production team had already realized that the filming of this group of guests might be a little difficult, they would never have thought that the two of them would make the production team unable to do anything during the interview before filming.
The interview before the recording was routine. Yu Jue was no stranger to this kind of workflow, and the questions from the program team were not unexpected. They just asked him to briefly explain his family situation, the family members who would be on the show with him this time, and how he wished to spend this recording time with his sister.
The answers to the first few questions were quite normal. When Yu Jue answered the questions about how he was going to arrange the filming schedule, the program team saw the originally cool and energetic Yu Jue slowly become spirited.
The more he spoke, the more excited he became. “…I plan to bring Yaoyao on a trip with me. It’ll be just the two of us. I’ll drive Yaoyao to all the places she wants to go. I also want to take her to Disneyland. Actually, I want to book the whole of Disneyland for her to play in, but they don’t seem to provide such a service…”
The program team staff broke into a cold sweat and interrupted, “That… the budget that we have for each group of guests is limited. All of the guests’ activities cannot exceed the funds that you receive during the competition. It’s absolutely impossible to book the entirety of Disneyland with that!”
Yu Jue said regretfully, “Then forget it. Actually, no matter how we plan to do the recording, I only hope to achieve one goal, and that is that only Yaoyao and I will participate. My other family members, especially my two brothers, absolutely cannot disturb my interaction with her!”
The staff members of the production team were speechless. Yu Yao, who was waiting to be interviewed, covered her face in shame.
Even with the eight-figure reward, Yu Yao was starting to regret agreeing to do this variety show.
Hence, when she accepted the interview, she looked like she had nothing to live for. “…I don’t have any requirements for the recording. I just hope that you can use various missions to separate the two of us so that I can spend some time in peace.”
The production team held back their laughter and switched the camera to Yu Jue at just the right time, capturing his pitiful expression.
This was not a harmonious interview at all, but it stood out in the entertainment world—the clingy brother and the sister who couldn’t escape him despite despising him. Such a set-up was very novel and realistic. Hence, the netizens were even more looking forward to this variety show.
And it was precisely because of an edited clip that Yu Yao gained a large number of fans..
