Chapter 134 Tension
The sunlight bathed Xu Jingyan's face, and in the blink of an eye, her complexion returned, and she appeared to be unharmed.
She waved her hand, even urging Jiang Luo, "Luo Luo, hurry up and do your mission. This is the last one."
Completely unexpectedly, Xu Jingyan still remembered her mission even at this moment, which made Jiang Luo's nose suddenly sting with tears. She was so easily moved, and nodded, "Okay! I'll go first! You can rest a bit longer!"
"Congratulations to Shi Yan for becoming the second guest to complete the task!"
The smoke application is now complete.
Xu Jingyan pushed Jiang Luo with both hands, "Go! Go!"
The emotion she felt was like a sudden summer storm, washing away all her doubts about Xu Jingyan.
She thought that people can change. Xu Jingyan could become someone she didn't know, or she could turn back into her original self.
It only took Jiang Luo a few minutes to complete the task, and she narrowly became the third guest to finish it.
Just a few dozen seconds after she finished, Qin Ning was announced as the fourth.
Soon after, the staff reminded everyone, "The other guests will also receive rewards if they complete the tasks! We hope everyone will participate actively!"
It seems the production team couldn't stand seeing He Ziyan and Xu Jingyan being treated as mere "accessories" anymore.
Upon hearing the announcement, Jiang Luo quickly thanked her two teammates, saying, "You two should go and have some fun. You've been with me the whole time and haven't participated in anything."
Xu Jingyan turned to the side, next to Jiang Luo, and looked at He Ziyan with her. "He Ziyan, you go ahead. My foot still hurts a little. Luo Luo can come with me to rest." She tilted her head, her smile innocent and radiant.
He Ziyan looked at Jiang Luo.
He was indeed quite interested in the game itself, but he was also worried about Luo Luo being alone with Xu Jingyan.
He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he had a vague feeling that Xu Jingyan was definitely not as simple as she seemed.
However, Jiang Luo had now let her guard down and nodded repeatedly to He Ziyan, "Go, go."
After a brief hesitation, He Ziyan said, "Okay."
He turned and left, leaving Jiang Luo and Xu Jingyan standing there staring blankly for a while.
Jiang Luo looked away. "Let's go! Let's go to the rest area." She took Xu Jingyan's arm and asked with concern, "Did you twist your ankle? Or should I call a staff member to come and get you?"
"No need!" Xu Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief and said mysteriously, "I'm slacking off."
As she spoke, she reached out and pressed her hand on Jiang Luo's silencing device.
Press and hold for ten seconds to turn off the device.
Then, she shut down hers too.
“But…” Jiang Luo wanted to remind her that this behavior was against the rules, but then stopped. Xu Jingyan was never one to follow the rules.
With a sly wink, Xu Jingyan curled her lips into a playful smile, "Luo Luo, they wouldn't dare do anything to me. I'm famous enough to intimidate them."
Making outrageous statements is a hallmark of Xu Jingyan's behavior behind the scenes.
These words instantly brought Jiang Luo back to the days of the past.
In the past, Xu Jingyan would pull her aside and say, "Luo Luo, I want to be famous, I want to earn lots and lots of money. I don't want to be just known for my acting skills."
Xu Jingyan's ambition was always revealed to Jiang Luo without reservation.
Perhaps, this is trust.
"Hmm." Jiang Luo responded, shifting her gaze from Xu Jingyan to the front.
She likes real people, people with personality, no matter how that personality is defined by the world.
Xu Jingyan possesses a rebellious spirit that seems to defy the world, yet she is also keenly aware of her destination and the path she takes.
Her pretense all stemmed from her own desire; she wanted to pretend, so she pretended, never being controlled by anyone or anything.
That's cool.
It was so cool that Jiang Luo fell for this friendship.
Even someone like Xu Jingyan would tell Jiang Luo that there were some things she couldn't control.
The painful words echoed in her ears, as if triggering a switch. Her moved heart suddenly cooled. Jiang Luo pursed her lips and said in a casual tone, "Before I terminated my contract with Brother Lin, he said you wanted to sign me."
A slight contraction in the fingertips indicates tension.
