Chapter 40 Drawing Lots and Changing Groups



"Dear audience friends, we are honored to have Mr. Tao participate in this episode. I believe you can easily see the theme of this episode from this point. Yes, it is art! It is like a shining star, illuminating our stage today."

At this moment, the director continued to speak to the camera, "This episode focuses on art. The guests here all have their own unique characteristics. Some excel in a particular art form, while others may not have particularly outstanding areas of expertise. Furthermore, everyone's artistic expertise varies. Therefore, to ensure fairness and impartiality, we will continue to divide the guests into groups. The program team has conducted thorough research in advance, and we've discovered that Jiang Baizhi and Qu Qingdai are two guests who excel in painting and are extremely talented. Next, they will be appointed as team leaders, and the guests will be divided into groups by drawing lots. First, let our assistant bring up the drawing sticks. Red represents the Jiang Baizhi group, and blue represents the Qu Qingdai group. Now, please come forward and draw your lots."

"Director, I have a question!" Bai Ren suddenly raised his voice, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

"What's the problem?" The director turned his head and looked at Bai Ren with a puzzled look on his face. There was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. He didn't understand why Bai Ren suddenly asked this question.

"Well... can the members switch groups?" Bai Ren frowned slightly and stared at the director intently, as if he wanted to get a definite answer from the director.

"This isn't something you can decide alone," the director said slowly, his voice steady and composed. "If someone on the other side agrees to the group you want to replace, then you can do it. Otherwise, you can't."

"Okay, then I'll draw first." Bai Ren said, and walked towards the assistant.

The young assistant was holding a bundle of lottery sticks in his hand. The lottery sticks were neatly arranged, as if waiting to be picked. Bai Ren walked up to the young assistant, took a deep breath, and then randomly drew one from his hand.

He took a closer look and saw that the bottom of the stick was blue. It was from Qu Qingdai's group. Bai Ren breathed a sigh of relief. A look of relief came over his face, and his originally furrowed brow gradually relaxed. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, as if a heavy weight had finally been lifted off his shoulders.

"Xiaozhi, I really want to be in a group with you." Lin Zhirou lowered her voice and leaned close to Jiang Baizhi and said, "Look at Qu Qingdai. She grew up in an orphanage. How could she have any artistic talent? And she didn't have any professional training. How can she compare with you in painting? If I'm in a group with her, I'm sure I'll lose."

Jiang Baizhi frowned slightly and responded, "Don't say that. Maybe she draws very well. Besides, drawing lots is always unpredictable. What if she is really drawn to be in the same group with me?"

Lin Zhirou curled her lips in disapproval and said, "It's better to be safe than sorry. Anyway, if I were to be in the same group with her, I would definitely find someone to replace her. No matter how well she draws, can she be better than you? You have been studying under a famous teacher for so long." As she spoke, she secretly observed the surroundings to see if anyone was paying attention to their conversation.

"Well, it's up to you. If you are in the same group with Qu Qingdai, and someone here is willing to switch with you, I would welcome you very much. I'm just afraid that someone may not be happy about it, and then I can't do anything about it." Jiang Baizhi sighed helplessly.

"Don't worry, I will solve it myself when the time comes." Lin Zhirou said confidently.

"Let's stop talking about it and go draw lots first, just in case we don't need to change it." Jiang Baizhi suggested.

"Okay, I'll go draw lots first." Lin Zhirou said, then turned and walked towards the place where the lots were drawn.

Then, with a determined stride, Chao Yan took the lead and drew one of the three remaining sticks. Tan Changqing followed suit, reaching out and pulling out a stick. Finally, Lin Zhirou slowly stepped forward, her eyes tinged with anticipation and nervousness as she carefully drew a stick.

The three of them held the drawing sticks in their hands and drew from the assistant's hand at the same time, and the results were announced.

Chao Yan got a red lottery stick. He frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, but soon regained his composure and just stood aside quietly. Tan Changqing also got a red lottery stick. There was not much expression on his face. He just looked at the lottery stick in his hand silently, as if everything was within his expectations. Lin Zhirou got a blue lottery stick. When she saw the color of the lottery stick in her hand, her face instantly became a little ugly. She frowned, with a hint of dissatisfaction and disappointment in her eyes, and her mouth pouted slightly, as if she was not very satisfied with the result. She held the lottery stick tightly in her hand and stood there, forming a sharp contrast with Chao Yan and Tan Changqing.

"Director, I want to switch groups!" Lin Zhirou suddenly raised her voice, breaking the silence at the scene. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on her.

"Tsk, it's her again. Let her change. I don't want to be in the same group with her anyway." Bai Ren, who had been standing next to Qu Qingdai, muttered in a low voice, his tone full of disdain.

"Maybe he feels that the chances of winning by being in the same group with me are slim." Qu Qingdai said softly, with a hint of helplessness in her voice.

"It's not a big deal, then. Anyway, I'm very happy to be with you. I don't want to be in the same group with Jiang Baizhi. Judging from the first two episodes of the variety show, Jiang Baizhi might have some bad luck. Those statements on the Internet are not unreasonable." Bai Ren continued, his voice full of disgust for Jiang Baizhi.
