Chapter 31 I'll Promise You If You Ask Me
But Shen Lai couldn't show it too obviously, otherwise it would scare people away and the result would be counterproductive.
She just glanced at Huo Chilin indifferently and walked forward on her own, just like she had done on the show these past two days.
Looking at Shen Lai's cold attitude, Huo Chilin felt the uncomfortable feeling in his chest again.
But this also proves that Shen Lai is not the wolf grandmother.
Otherwise she would have done it to herself long ago.
Thinking of this, Huo Chilin dispelled the doubts in his heart.
Just now, Shen Lai looked around, probably to guard against Pei Jingyan, right?
Huo Chilin took the initiative to step forward and said, "Did you hear that just now? Han Sui was eliminated."
[No, is this guy actively trying to talk to Shen Lai? Didn't he say they weren't familiar with each other?]
[I thought Master Huo would pretend not to see Shen Lai when he saw him, but I didn't expect him to take the initiative to talk to him.]
[This is just a game. How could Mr. Huo ignore the other guests? Just use your brain and you'll figure it out.]
[Yes, and it's normal for a caring and warm man like Master Huo to be worried when he sees a girl like Shen Lai wandering around in the secret room.]
[Can Chen Lai's fans please stop getting carried away here? You've misinterpreted a normal interaction like this. Enough is enough.]
Shen Lai didn't even glance at Huo Chilin, and walked forward on his own, "I'm not deaf, of course I heard it."
Huo Chilin said in a deep voice, "So now Grandma Wolf is among the three of us."
Shen Lai finally stopped, looked back at him, and frowned slightly, "What do you want to say?"
Huo Chilin said confidently, "I've already verified my identity in the last round. I can't be Grandma Wolf, so one of you and Pei Jingyan must be an undercover agent."
Shen Lai seemed to have heard a joke, and he stood up and looked at Huo Chilin, "Then maybe I am the wolf grandmother?"
Huo Chilin said firmly: "You are not the wolf grandmother."
Shen Lai raised his eyebrows.
"If you were Grandma Wolf, the first person to be eliminated would be Pei Jingyan." Huo Chilin had a good reason.
Shen Lai chuckled, "Maybe I like Pei Jingyan and can't bear to do anything to him."
Hearing the word "like," Huo Chilin's eyes darkened slightly. Concerned about the camera being right next to him, he clenched his fists and lowered his voice so only the two of them could hear, "I don't believe it."
He stared at Shen Lai's face closely, and almost squeezed out a voice from his teeth, "Even if you are really together, you must have been forced."
Shen Lai thought that Huo Chilin's intuition was really accurate.
But she definitely wouldn't admit it in front of the camera, and said lightly: "Whatever you say."
Huo Chilin's chest rose and fell slightly. He took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. "Besides, if you were Grandma Wolf, you wouldn't separate from Pei Jingyan, right?"
Thinking about Pei Jingyan's action of reaching into his pocket just now, he became even more certain that Pei Jingyan was Grandma Wolf.
Although she didn't know where Huo Chilin got the illusion from, it was easier for her to take action since Huo Chilin didn't suspect that she was the wolf grandmother.
Chen Lai pretended to be indifferent on the surface, "So what even if Pei Jingyan is the wolf grandmother?"
Huo Chilin snorted coldly, "Han Sui has been eliminated. Pei Jingyan will definitely be the next one to get rid of you. So if you want to save your life, I advise you to stay with me."
"Two are always safer than one."
"What if I say no?"
Huo Chilin's brows knitted together. He had originally thought that Shen Lai would definitely agree to his request given the critical situation, but he didn't expect the other party to be so stubborn. "Even if you want to be upset, you should wait and see, right?"
Shen Lai sneered, "I dare not walk with Mr. Huo, lest your fans accuse me of riding on your popularity again."
Seeing that Shen Lai didn't even give him face in front of the camera, Huo Chilin gritted his teeth and said, "Do you hate me so much that you don't even want to be with me at a time like this?"
Shen Lai said without hesitation: “Yes, I would rather be eliminated than be with you.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around to leave. Huo Chilin forgot for a moment that the camera was here and subconsciously reached out to pull Shen Lai.
Just when he grabbed Shen Lai, Shen Lai suddenly turned around, and before Huo Chilin could react, he took out a sticker from his pocket at lightning speed and quickly stuck it on Huo Chilin's forehead.
Huo Chilin was stunned.
[No?? Chen Lai's operation is too smooth, isn't it?]
[Before I could see clearly, Shen Lai had already put the sticker on Huo Shao's head? ]
[Isn't the point that Young Master Huo went to pull Shen Lai? Their relationship isn't that close, is it? Why does it seem like Young Master Huo took the initiative so naturally?]
[The person above, I also feel the same way, but I didn’t dare to say it just now.]
[It feels like these two people haven't just met, and the atmosphere is a bit strange.]
As expected, the names of Shen Lai and Huo Chilin became hot searches. Netizens who heard the news originally thought that Shen Lai was trying to ride on Huo Chilin's popularity again, but when they clicked on the video, they found that the person who did it was actually Huo Chilin.
Moreover, the attitude of the two people talking to each other did not seem like strangers as rumored online. Instead, it seemed like they were acquaintances who had known each other for quite a long time.
#Huo Chilin took the initiative to lead Chen Lai#
#Shen Lai and Huo Chilin know each other#
Huo Chilin didn't know that his subconscious action just now caused quite a stir on the Internet. It was not until he touched the sticker on his forehead that he finally realized that Shen Lai was the wolf grandmother hiding among them.
He said angrily, "Are you plotting against me?"
Shen Lai smiled: "All is fair in war, has Mr. Huo never heard of this saying?"
Huo Chilin's chest heaved violently.
Why did Pei Jingyan pretend to be Grandma Wolf in the secret room just now!
And why didn’t Shen Lai attack himself at the beginning, but waited so long before attacking?
As the notification sound of Huo Chilin being eliminated rang above his head, he was dragged out of the secret room by the staff.
Now only Pei Jingyan is left.
She felt a headache when she thought of this person.
Huo Chilin and Bai Hansui were both eliminated, and there was no need to guess who the Wolf Grandma lurking among them was.
It would definitely not be easy to take action against Pei Jingyan, the last survivor.
What's more, the two had just had a fight twenty minutes ago.
Just as Shen Lai was racking her brains over how to get Pei Jingyan offline, she met Pei Jingyan walking towards her as she turned the corner.
Shen Lai paused slightly, and the atmosphere in the air seemed a little awkward.
"Grandma Wolf, what are you doing standing there?"
Pei Jingyan took the initiative to speak and broke the silence.
Shen Lai's throat rolled. Seeing that the other party acted as if nothing had happened, she also pretended that nothing had happened. "Since you know that I am the wolf grandmother, why don't you run away?"
Pei Jingyan's lips curled up, "Can you beat me?"
Shen Lai choked.
She really couldn't beat him.
Pei Jingyan teased: "Since you can't beat me, why should I run away?"
Shen Lai thought, it seems that a hard approach is not going to work, and he can only take a roundabout route.
So she walked over and whispered, "Pei Jingyan, let's discuss this."
Pei Jingyan raised his eyes to look at her, "What are you discussing?"
Shen Lai covered his mouth with one hand and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Look, we're wasting time like this. Why don't you let me put a sticker on you and then consider you a loser. When the job is done, I'll give you half of the reward. How about that?"
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows unmoved, "How do I know if you will deny your debt after you accomplish the task?"
Shen Lai was anxious, "Am I such a dishonest person in your heart?"
Pei Jingyan nodded without thinking.
Shen Lai: “…”
She took a deep breath and said helplessly, "Then how can you trust me? Otherwise, I will write you an IOU."
Looking at Shen Lai's expectant eyes, Pei Jingyan said with interest: "Do you really want to win?"
Shen Lai nodded repeatedly.
Although I don’t know what the reward is, the program team shouldn’t be too stingy.
Maybe it's a lot of money?
Pei Jingyan lazily put his hands in his pockets and said, "I prefer ready-made things. How about this? If you beg me, I'll let you put stickers on me. How about that?"
