Chapter 35 This is not a serious romance variety show

Lin Manjiao came back with her clothes, looked at the tightly closed bathroom door, listened to the splashing sound of water inside, and an unnatural blush appeared on her face.

Downstairs, workers were still cleaning up the accumulated water.

Several other guests also came out one after another.

After all, the noise just now was quite loud, and they all heard the sound of Xu Shuozhou making a fuss.

I never thought that someone who usually looks gentle and polite could be so vicious when speaking dirty words behind someone's back...

Besides being shocked, I was also curious.

All of a sudden, what happened?

Is this really a show that is disguised as a romance variety show but is actually a program that tortures and abuses the guests?

Otherwise, why would you do this in the middle of the night and not let people sleep peacefully...

"What the hell! What happened? Did the water pipe burst?"

Zhou Baibai had just walked a few steps out of the bedroom door when he stepped into the water, causing a wave of water and making his feet feel wet and cold, which was very uncomfortable.

He jumped back onto the stairs, separated himself from the water on the ground, and looked at the sullen director not far away to ask questions.

"Mr. Xu was smoking in the living room and the smoke alarm was triggered..."

The director's face turned livid and he looked very ferocious.

It seems that he already knew that Lin Manjiao wanted to terminate the contract.

"Ah? Smoking in the house?"

Zhou Baibai took a deep breath, obviously not understanding this behavior.

Soon Gu Qiming also came over to inquire about the situation. After learning that it was Xu Shuozhou who was smoking in the living room and triggered the smoke alarm, he, like Zhou Baibai, showed an expression of "No, he must be sick."

Who in their right mind would smoke in the living area?

When Lin Manjiao came down from the building, the staff were still pouring out the water.

There is no doubt that this floor cannot be used.

The director is bald and this place may be remote, but the rent is not cheap at all.

The decoration is top-notch and not cheap at all.

Now, he doesn't know how much he has to pay to the landlord...

With resentment in his heart, he was not very friendly towards Lin Manjiao.

"Director Feng..."

As soon as Lin Manjiao opened her mouth, the director waved to his assistant and said with a fake smile: "You want to terminate the contract? Here, this is the contract. The penalty for breach of contract and the compensation for missed work are all written on it. Check it carefully. If there is no problem, let's go through the process."

He had no intention of trying to persuade me to stay: "As for the other compensation, I will send the bill to you after I have communicated with the landlord."

Lin Manjiao: …

She took a deep breath and tried to put on a smile: "Director Feng, look at what you are saying. We have been working together happily recently, haven't we? How can we terminate the contract?"

The director looked at her with a little surprise.

"Just now upstairs, Shuozhou told me that he was at fault first and accidentally triggered the smoke alarm. I didn't understand the situation clearly and thought he was being wronged..."

Lin Manjiao carefully apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Director Feng, I was too loud just now."

She raised her hand and pushed the contract back: "Please take this contract back. I am still looking forward to working with you more!"

The director looked at the contract in his hand and said nothing.

When Lin Manjiao's face was about to freeze with laughter, he casually said, "Xiao Lin, I know you've been very popular recently, and there are many big productions offering you olive branches."

Lin Manjiao quickly said humbly, "No, no..." She was not sure what the director meant.

"We are very happy and honored that you can come to our small program, but you also have to understand how difficult it is for our small temple. You know, our production funds are very tight."

The director looked embarrassed.

Lin Manjiao tried hard to put on a smile.

She can't quit this variety show, otherwise...

Thinking of that phone call, she could only smile a little wider, hoping that she could still save the situation.

"Now that a good house is ruined, what do you think we should do? Not to mention that I can't explain to the owner, I'm also racking my brains over where the guests will stay in the next few days..."

The director sighed deeply, then sighed deeply again, then looked at Lin Manjiao with blinking eyes.

Lin Manjiao didn't understand what he meant.

"In the past few days, there are forecasts for typhoons and heavy rains..."

The director gave some hints, but the other party still looked confused.

He became a little impatient: "The apartment floor needs to be renovated and maintained immediately, otherwise it will be damaged more seriously if it is soaked for too long..."

Lin Manjiao blinked and understood something.

"The apartment is being renovated, so we won't be able to continue living here. But there will be a typhoon in the next few days, so it might be dangerous to set up a tent and sleep outside..."

The director almost made it clear: "But the show cannot be suspended. You know how troublesome it will be to resume the show if it is suspended."

"Director Feng, just tell me, what do you need me to do?" Lin Manjiao didn't quite understand the director's hint. The only thing she was sure of was that the director definitely wanted her to pay something.

Director: …

His face became even uglier: "I plan to change the recording location of the variety show to a local five-star resort hotel."

Lin Manjiao nodded and waited for his next words.

Director: …

For a moment he was unsure whether this man was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.

"The program team has limited funds, and this accident happened because of Mr. Xu..."

He paused for a moment, thinking that since the words have been explained so clearly, they should be easy to understand, right?

Why don't you take the initiative to respond?

"So in addition to compensating the room owner, Mr. Xu will also have to bear the cost of staying at the hotel."

The director was discouraged and just got straight to the point.

“That’s as it should be.”

Lin Manjiao finally understood, and while she readily agreed, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just losing money, it's not a big deal.

After roughly settling on the compensation issue, the director no longer made things difficult for Lin Man-jiao.

But I couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with Xu Shuozhou...

I didn't expect that he looked like a decent person, but when something happened, he would just hide away and let the woman stand up for him.

However, thinking that Xu Shuozhou was forced into the position by that man through coercion and inducement, the director soon felt relieved.

Birds of a feather!

He understands!

The director snorted inwardly to hide his disdain and disgust, then quickly adjusted his facial expression and called his assistant to notify the guests to gather.

"Ah? No, it's still dark, why do we have to gather now?"

Zhou Baibai, who had just returned to the house and was about to go back to sleep, looked reluctant.

Gu Qiming and Xu Xiangnuan also did not look well and looked particularly tired.

Both of them are middle-aged and elderly people who follow a healthy lifestyle. They are prone to insomnia and fatigue if they don’t sleep well. They just went back to their room and lay down, feeling drowsy for a short while before they were called up again...

Shen Shiman and his companions were fine.

When everyone was present, the director clapped his hands and said, "Due to some unexpected circumstances, we have to temporarily move out of the Ailu Apartment. Now please hurry back and pack your luggage. Don't forget anything."

He raised his hand and looked at the time: "At 5:30, everyone gather here with your things. Those who are late will find their own way to the new location!"

Zhou Baibai exclaimed: "What time is it now?"

The director chuckled maliciously: "Five fifteen."

Then he raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Oh, it's five sixteen now..."

He looked at them smugly and said, "That means you only have fourteen minutes to pack your things."

"Fuck!" Zhou Baibai couldn't help but blurt out a swear word.

The director chuckled, "Also, I'd like to remind you that the Ailu Apartment will be renovated tomorrow, so if you leave anything behind, it will probably be cleared away as well."

So not only do they have to pack up in 14 minutes, but they also have to pack up everything in 14 minutes? ! ! !

grass!

Sure enough, this is not a serious love variety show!!

Whose serious romance variety show is like this?

The love transformation plan is pretty good!

Several people, led by Zhou Baibai, cursed and ran back to the room to pack up their things.
