Chapter 888 Oh no, something bad is about to happen!
The room fell silent as soon as Zhao Yun'er said this.
The guests were stunned, the director was stunned, and the staff watching from the sidelines were also stunned.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, everyone's gazes simultaneously drifted to the area above the director's eyes.
If Zhao Yun'er hadn't said anything, they wouldn't have noticed, but now that they look closely, they realize that the director's eyebrows do seem to be a bit... forked.
The so-called "split" doesn't mean his eyebrows are malnourished and split like hair, but rather that his eyebrows aren't as smooth and grow in only one direction as most people's.
The director's eyebrows were messy, thick but forked in all directions, giving them a somewhat chaotic look.
The director usually looks a bit unkempt, so no one would deliberately observe his facial features and no one noticed this obvious characteristic.
"Pfft..." As a staff member next to them burst out laughing, many people couldn't help but laugh. A few people who laughed more loudly even turned their backs and their shoulders kept shaking.
Those at the scene need to be patient, but those watching the live stream don't.
After confirming the director's eyebrow shape, the live stream room was filled with laughter and joy.
[Hahaha, her eyebrows are split open, amazing! How come I never realized Xiaoyun'er was this funny before?]
[You just realized that?! I noticed it in the first episode. I was thinking back then that it's no wonder Xiaoyun'er's agent never let her do reality shows before. The real persona is completely different from her movie/TV drama persona; the contrast is huge.]
[She has the face of a mature, sophisticated woman, but the heart of a goofball. Hahaha, our Xiaoyun'er is truly versatile, both cool and sassy. I wonder if anyone will offer her a role with a quirky, unconventional character after this variety show. After seeing her play so many dignified young ladies, I want to see her play a mischievous and adorable goofball!]
The director noticed everyone's gaze and instinctively covered his eyebrows.
Hearing the laughter of the group again, his face darkened instantly, and he glared angrily at the people who had laughed.
Seeing this, the staff members dared not laugh anymore, but their gazes toward the director still clearly carried a hint of barely suppressed laughter.
The director didn't expect to mess up the eyebrows, and he was annoyed and frustrated. But the play had already gone this far, and he couldn't give up halfway, so he had to pretend nothing was wrong and continue acting.
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you are all my hostages now."
The director coughed lightly, as if he had noticed something, glanced at everyone, and frowned, saying, "Where are the other two people?"
The staff member playing the kidnapper's henchman immediately stepped forward and reported, "Boss, the person responsible for going to their courtyard hasn't returned yet."
"Still not back? Why have you been delayed for so long?"
"Something may have delayed them. Don't worry, brother. As you instructed, there are twice as many people going to their courtyard as to the other courtyards. No matter how powerful they are, they can't fight against so many people. We'll definitely bring them back soon."
The director, after listening, thought it made some sense and nodded, saying, "That's true, no big problem. No matter how powerful you are, you won't escape my grasp today. You've been holding back for so long, and you've finally fallen into my hands. Let's see how I deal with you this time, hehehehe..."
On such a late night, everyone was still laughing so hard at the director that they got goosebumps. Looking at his smug look, they all thought the same thing: "Why don't you become an actor and play those troublesome villains? You're really wasting your talents by becoming a variety show director!"
The director had barely chuckled when a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in from the corridor entrance, making everyone present shiver.
The evening breeze rustled through the trees surrounding the courtyard, creating an ethereal and eerie sound as the leaves whispered through the trees.
The director, whose smugness lasted only three seconds, couldn't help but cross his arms and hug himself, muttering to himself, "Is it really that cold these days? I feel like the wind is blowing right into my bones."
Li Guangjun and the others nodded in agreement. The wind was indeed much cooler than during the day. Could it be because of the night? Is the temperature really that low tonight?
The group, huddled together from the cold, did not notice that after the wind passed, one of them was momentarily dazed, then his eyes narrowed, suddenly taking on a slightly frightening depth.
Li Guangjun and the others became hostages in the hands of the "kidnappers" without any suspense. On the other hand, Ye Wanxi and her companion, who were considered more difficult to deal with than the others and who were given more people to launch a sneak attack, did not even have a chance to fight back against these staff members.
Ye Wanxi and her companion woke up as soon as the staff approached the courtyard.
Unsure of what the production crew wanted, the two simply climbed onto the roof and waited for these uninvited guests.
This resulted in the crew breaking down the door only to find the two people nowhere to be seen inside.
"Where is everyone?" The middle-aged man in charge of the team stared wide-eyed at the empty room, dumbfounded.
"Where did they go? Didn't they come back to sleep here tonight?"
"Impossible. Xiao Jia and the others have been watching this yard. They came back around 11 o'clock. They haven't left since. They must still be in this house. Let's search."
The planner was also a bit frustrated. Their task was just to bring people over, but who would have thought they would have to search the house after they arrived?
The room where Ye Wanxi and her companion lived was only a few dozen square meters, and there weren't many places to hide, except under the bed, under the table, and behind some curtains.
A large group of staff searched here and there, and soon they had searched the entire house, but still found nothing.
Now the planner was really worried: "Didn't you go in and not come out? There's no one in the room now. Did you grow wings and fly away with them?"
"Uh..." The guy who had spoken earlier choked up, "They probably slipped out again later. You know how good these celebrities are at disguising themselves so they can get out without being mobbed. So what do we do now? The director is waiting for us to bring them back."
"Arrest?" Ye Wanxi and Feng Tianyu, who were squatting on the roof, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "What's going on now?"
Feng Tianyu thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "It should be a script created by the production team in coordination with the Yang family's affairs."
"The Yang family's affairs?"
"Didn't I tell you before that many people have died here?"
A thought flashed through Ye Wanxi's mind: "Could it be that the directors are planning to recreate what happened back then in the program?"
As soon as Ye Wanxi finished speaking, the two of them keenly sensed the ominous aura that suddenly spread through the air.
The two men's expressions changed slightly, and they subconsciously looked in the direction of the source of the aura.
The place was brightly lit by flickering flames and candlelight, clearly a gathering place for people.
"Oh no, something's going to happen!"
