Chapter 501: One Cheap and Three Eagles
In contrast to the leisurely and contented appearance of Fatty Yu Yiyuan and the other two were the captains of the other three teams, who looked embarrassed, anxious and racking their brains.
The staff's explanation was euphemistic, calling it a placement, but it was essentially the same as kicking someone out. The other three teams had no major internal conflicts, so they weren't as relaxed as the team with the blatant discord between Fatty and Yu Yiyuan. Even after Fatty and Yu Yiyuan finished writing their cue cards, the three of them still stood there, looking bitter and resentful, unable to write anything else.
After the fat man happily handed the cue card to the host, he gave Wen Xinyuan a high-profile evil smile, and then made an OK gesture to Zhao Xiaojing and Guan Yingxia who were sitting there.
Zhao Xiaojing laughed. It seemed that he was trying to poach Wen Xinyuan and take Sister Xia away.
Just as he was about to whisper to Guan Yingxia, he felt a gaze staring straight at him from the stage.
Zhao Xiaojing tilted her head strangely and unexpectedly met Yu Yiyuan's slightly apologetic gaze.
???
What's the meaning?
This direction is looking at yourself, right?
Zhao Xiaojing blinked in confusion, but found that Yu Yiyuan did not dodge, but nodded slightly at her.
Alarm bells suddenly rang in Zhao Xiaojing's mind.
He suddenly became so familiar with her at this point, could he have written his name on it?!
Does this mean that Sister Xia is here and she has to leave?
Just as he was about to explore again, Yu Yiyuan had already lowered his eyes.
Zhao Xiaojing had no choice but to turn her indescribable gaze to the fat man.
At this moment, the fat man was exchanging glances with Wen Xinyuan on the stage.
I don't know if the eye contact between the two can measure their granularity. At first, the fat man smiled evilly, and then Wen Xinyuan quickly wrote a few words on the card and began to smile insidiously. The two looked at each other and laughed at their own things, and I don't know what was so funny.
After a while, after Wen Xinyuan finished writing the list, Luo Junlang and Mao Tingxiu also handed in their cards.
After the staff put the last two hand cards at the bottom, they and other staff members counted and compared the five hand cards in order, then wrote and drew some, and finally wrote a new hand card.
The staff member held up the rookie cards and smiled mysteriously at the players below. "Alright, we've determined and adjusted the final distribution according to the order of the cards in hand. Now, let's reveal the outstanding players that the captains have snatched away!"
"Contestant Guan Yingxia from the fourth team was snatched away by the captain of the second team, Zhao Duo!"
The fat man laughed and raised his chin towards Wen Xinyuan, unable to hide his arrogance.
Wen Xinyuan also grinned back at the fat man happily.
"Contestant Zhao Xiaojing from the second team was snatched away by Yu Yiyuan, captain of the first team!"
The smiles of the fat man and Wen Xinyuan froze at the same time. They looked straight at Yu Yiyuan who was standing aside, with an expression of "I don't understand" written on their faces. Seeing that Yu Yiyuan didn't look at them, the two of them looked at Zhao Xiaojing who was sitting in the audience in confusion.
Zhao Xiaojing thought to herself that this was indeed the case, and sighed inwardly, while looking at Yu Yiyuan in confusion.
This group already has the most female contestants, four in total. To balance things out, we have to have a male chef, right? Didn't he already get into trouble last time because of a beautiful woman?
And even if he wanted to find a female chef, why would he choose someone he knew nothing about? Didn't the host emphasize finding someone who would fit in with the team's style? Of course, finding someone he knew well would be more reliable.
As they stared at each other in bewilderment, they heard the staff member announce the next event with a smile. "Contestant Zhao Duo from Team Two was snatched away by Team Four captain Wen Xinyuan!"
The fat man, who hadn't recovered from the shock of Zhao Xiaojing being snatched away, was struck by lightning. "No, I'm the captain!"
Wen Xinyuan burst out laughing instantly.
"The captain is also a member of the team and can be snatched away. Let us congratulate the captain of the fourth team for discovering the hidden rules!" The staff shouted passionately and applauded Wen Xinyuan.
Mao Tingxiu and Luo Junlang standing next to them were stunned and amazed, and they just applauded blankly.
The contestants below suddenly burst into laughter.
The humor was so strong that even Zhao Xiaojing, who had just been poached from the team, laughed.
These two people have really unique ways of thinking. They will never admit defeat when it comes to pitting each other, and they are evenly matched.
Seeing the fat man being humiliated, Wen Xinyuan's smile became even more cunning.
The staff member suppressed a laugh and continued reading, "Contestant Yu Ruman from the first team was snatched away by the captain of the third team, Mao Tingxiu!"
"Contestant Jing Ziheng from the third team was snatched away by Luo Junlang, captain of the fifth team!"
"Now let's reveal the players and teams that each captain has assigned!"
"Contestant Pei Yeyu from the first team enters the second team!"
Everyone was stunned.
Pei Yeyu, the deputy captain of Yu Yiyuan's team, prepared a pretty good seafood banquet last time, although it didn't fit the theme and the ingredients were over budget. But there were only three of them, and they were considered outstanding talents to have achieved such results. How could Yu Yiyuan send such a high-level player to help the enemy?
You know, the most threatening team at the moment is Zhao Duo's team. Except for a player with 4 points at the end, all the members have high scores. Naturally, they are the focus of everyone's suppression in this game.
Yu Yiyuan's decision to snatch Zhao Xiaojing was already difficult to understand, but Zhao Xiaojing was third in the standings and was also the vice-captain, so snatching her away would have weakened Zhao Duo's team. But snatching a vice-captain and then sending another vice-captain back—what was he doing?
Those who couldn't figure it out had already started discussing in low voices.
"Gu Yanghui, the second team player, enters the first team!"
Zhao Xiaojing suddenly felt hopeless. She had thought that since Gu Yanghui had been sent out, she would no longer have to worry about him, but it turned out that he was still on the same team with her!
"Contestant Wen Xinyuan from the fourth team enters the second team!" The staff member said loudly with a curved lip.
As soon as this assignment was announced, the entire audience, which had been chattering quietly, fell silent and all looked towards the stage.
On the stage, the fat man's eyes were as big as copper bells, and Wen Xinyuan was so happy that he simply sat on the ground, holding his stomach and laughing uncontrollably.
"No, this is also a hidden rule? I can be placed there and I can go out as the captain?" The fat man's pupils trembled and he looked at the staff in disbelief.
"Yes." The staff member tried his best to control the trembling of his lips.
The fat man looked at Wen Xinyuan with murderous eyes, and the contestant seats suddenly burst into thunderous laughter.
Zhao Xiaojing and Guan Yingxia couldn't stop laughing.
The fat guy suffered the loss of being the first to move. In order to seize the advantage of being the first, he wrote too quickly without thinking too much. He only thought about pulling Guan Yingxia in and abandoning Wen Xinyuan. Wen Xinyuan wrote later and saw the fat guy grinning at him. Naturally, he understood what the fat guy had done. Then he turned against Tiangang and not only pulled the fat guy into his team, but also ran away himself.
If Zhao Xiaojing hadn't been kidnapped, the three of them would have been in the same team, leaving the fat guy alone in the next team.
Not only does he not have to send his team members out to offend his own team members, he can also replace the team members with a powerful captain and trick the fat guy.
A cheapskate with three eagles.
