The director's expression was completely distorted; these two were just... worse than each other.
After a long while, she managed a dry laugh and asked a few meaningless questions.
We barely managed to complete the interview process.
These are probably the two most genuine people she's ever interviewed, and also the two people who leave her speechless.
At once……
Don't you care about your image at all?
"Oh, right..." the director seemed to remember something and asked Jiang Li, "I remember you didn't introduce your profession. What are you doing now?"
Jiang Li tilted her head and thought for a moment, "A high school graduate?"
Director: "!!!"
"So you just finished the college entrance exam?" The director was taken aback for a moment, then, remembering Jiang Li's description of his age, he understood. "Are you satisfied with your exam results?"
Jiang Li looked at her like she was an idiot. "The results aren't out yet, how would I know what the exam results are? But..."
Jiang Li's lips curved into a smile again. "I feel pretty good about myself."
"Well..." the director thought for a moment and added, "When the results come out, Jiang Li must share them with everyone. I'm sure everyone is very curious about your college entrance exam score."
"Definitely, definitely." Jiang Li said with a forced smile, "But... don't worry, they definitely won't have a chance to laugh at me."
Director: "..."
You're being way too confident.
In the entertainment industry, the last thing you can do is create a "top student" persona; a slight misstep could lead to utter ruin.
After the interview, Jiang Li yawned wearily.
Tian Tian immediately urged Jiang Li to go back to her room to rest, while she herself happily went into the kitchen to fill Jiang Li's stomach.
Although the variety show was filmed in a remote village, the production team still arranged the food very well.
but……
This is a one-time event.
Today the production team provided the ingredients for free, tomorrow...
You can only earn points by completing tasks to redeem them.
How good the food is depends on how many points you can earn by completing tasks.
Back in her room, before Jiang Li could even lie down, a small stone was thrown into the room from outside the window.
Jiang Li frowned and walked to the window, only to see a familiar face standing in the neighboring courtyard.
Lu Jiming?
What's this person doing here?
Just as Jiang Li looked puzzled, she saw Lu Jiming make a phone call gesture towards her.
Jiang Li shook her head at Lu Jiming.
There are cameras in her room; if she makes a phone call, they can hear her.
If the director knew about Lu Jiming's existence, she definitely wouldn't be able to get him to help her with anything.
so……
It's better to play it safe.
Lu Jiming suddenly went into the house, seemingly lost in thought.
He quickly pulled out a suitcase and then made a gesture as if he were eating something in front of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li understood instantly, and her eyes immediately sparkled.
Jiang Li stood at the window, in the corner of the camera's view, and with her back to the camera, so her action of taking out paper and pen from her storage space to write would not be captured on camera.
After writing a few words, Jiang Li crumpled the paper and threw it at Lu Jiming.
Then, looking exhausted, she walked to the bedside and lay down.
Lu Jiming received the paper ball and, feeling guilty, took his suitcase back to his room.
Once he got to the room, he carefully unfolded the crumpled paper.
Lu Jiming breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Jiang Li's handwriting.
It says on it, "Wait for her."
With Jiang Li's words, Lu Jiming felt relieved, and he no longer needed to think about how to send the things to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li slept for an hour, and Tian Tian prepared the meal.
Because the ingredients provided by the production team were limited, Tian Tian couldn't cook too many dishes.
The two of them ate four dishes and a soup right under the camera's nose.
Is Jiang Li a reincarnation of a starving ghost? She's always eating snacks, how can she still eat so much rice?
[Who was it that said she was just creating a "foodie" persona? This level of foodie behavior is something female celebrities in the entertainment industry can't pull off.]
[Who knows if she threw up while the camera was on?]
[She was in the camera's view the whole time. Can't you see whether she vomited or not?]
[...]
"Jiang Li, are you still hungry?" Tian Tian deliberately lowered her voice, but the viewers in the live stream still heard her. "I still have some cash on me. When I came here, I saw that there is a small shop in the village. Although it may not sell many things, it should sell some cookies and the like. I'll go and buy you some cookies later."
Jiang Li looked at Tian Tian with a half-smile and refused, "No need."
Tian Tian looked puzzled. "Why not? Since you came with me to record the show, I certainly can't let you go hungry! Don't worry, I'll sneak out to buy something later."
"..." Jiang Li was silent for a moment, "It wasn't necessary before, but now I want to say that you no longer have the chance."
"ah?"
Just as Tian Tian was looking confused, she heard a shout coming from outside.
It was the director shouting through a megaphone.
"Attention, guests! You must hand over your wallets, cash, and mobile phones. You are not allowed to use your personal money during the recording of the program!"
"Anyone who outwardly complies but inwardly defies the rules will face severe punishment from the production team!"
"Given that the guests are all very tired today, ... staff will come to collect these items later."
"Don't even think about hiding anything. I can see your every move now. If I find any inappropriate behavior..."
The director left his words unfinished, but they left the audience with much to ponder.
Tian Tian looked at Jiang Li with a look of despair. "Could it be that the director only remembered this because of what I just said?"
"Yes, the director should thank you." Jiang Li nodded.
Tian Tian scratched her hair. "I was wrong."
I should have kept quiet.
"Take your things out and wait to hand them over to the production crew." Jiang Li was in a good mood and wasn't upset about having her things confiscated.
after all……
What are these things?
She now has a private space and external support.
However, when the staff came to collect the phones, Jiang Li handed in hers but kept Zhao Shuhua's phone.
"I'll give you her phone tomorrow morning. Right now..." Jiang Li revealed a mysterious expression, "You'd better not touch it."
These words sent a chill down the spines of the staff and viewers in the live stream. The thought of the trouble caused by taking photos with that phone made everyone feel a cold sweat run down their backs.
The staff consulted the director, who allowed Jiang Liming to hand over Zhao Shuhua's phone again.
The live stream ended at 9:30 PM.
The guests had all finished washing up and lay down on the not-so-comfortable bed.
The day's events had left everyone exhausted, so the guests didn't fuss and quickly went to sleep.
Only Jiang Li...
She quietly got up and swiftly jumped out of the window.
