"Her company..." Yan Chongning thought for a moment, "is a small workshop."
That company isn't a dedicated talent agency at all; it actually started out making TV dramas and then signed a few artists to make it easier and cheaper to produce its own dramas—it's completely different from a talent agency like Yunxing.
In addition, Zhuang Zemin had previously mentioned that this assistant was a relative, so the company probably wanted to keep the matter quiet and ask Ning Yiran to be more tolerant.
Cen Yu knew this, so he didn't say anything more.
"Be careful," Yan Chongning said after thinking for a moment. "This person can intrude into Ning Yiran's life; he's probably insane."
Cen Yu placed the empty orange juice on the table, then jokingly picked up a knife, saying, "It's okay, I'll kill one if they come."
"...That's when something really happened!" Yan Chongning couldn't help but complain!
...
Around 7 o'clock, Cen Yu had already changed his clothes and arrived at the lakeside.
The production team arranged for an instructor to give a brief explanation of how to play paddleboarding. Then, once everything was ready, the director took the microphone and began to announce the game rules.
Simply put, this paddleboarding + mountain off-road game must be completed within one day.
Furthermore, a points system is used, and rooms are selected based on the final ranking of points.
Standing on a paddleboard earns 10 points, kneeling earns 5 points, and sitting earns 2 points.
According to the order of arrival, the scores range from 12 points to 1 point.
The first people to reach the other side received backpacks filled with more information about where the production team had hidden the blind boxes, with different colored boxes representing different points.
To enhance the viewing experience, blind boxes can be snatched and traded, and all guests must reach the finish line of the competition within 4 hours.
The rules were very simple, and Cen Yu was very confident, perhaps because he had worked well with Zhuang Zemin in the morning, and Zhuang Zemin stood next to him when they took their positions.
Duan Zhou and Mu Fengyin were on the other side... After Cen Yu arrived at the shore, he felt Duan Zhou's gaze, so he raised his hand to ask a question—
"Director, what if someone bumps into me while I'm paddleboarding?"
"The rules don't say you can't bump into people," the director said after coughing. "So you can bump back."
As soon as the director spoke, the guests immediately began to wail in agreement. The two older guests immediately spoke up, saying that they were too old to compete with the young people and that they absolutely could not bump into them.
Mu Fengyin glanced at Duan Zhou.
Duan Zhou guiltily looked away.
After the rules were explained, the paddleboards and life jackets were in place, and Cen Yu stood next to Zhuang Zemin... They were all wearing quick-drying clothes for easy movement, as well as T-shirts and shorts with the program's logo.
The director shouted through a megaphone—
"Alright! Begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuang Zemin steadied himself and immediately slid out.
Judging from his posture and his practiced movements, this guy must have done this a lot... The others around him were either sitting on paddleboards tentatively paddling forward, or kneeling and slowly paddling forward like seals.
Cen Yu was already sitting on the paddleboard, holding the paddle in his hand, paddling forward half-heartedly.
He originally thought he was the slowest, but in the blink of an eye he saw Duan Zhou sneaking around behind him.
“…” Cen Yu sighed inwardly.
Pretending not to see, I continued paddling slowly.
Duan Zhou had already spotted Cen Yu's position and was about to pretend to accidentally bump into him when he was bumped into first.
Standing on the paddleboard, Mu Fengyin said awkwardly to Duan Zhou, "...Sorry, I paddled off course."
Duan Zhou, seeing that it was Mu Fengyin, naturally dared not get angry! He could only grit his teeth and say, "It's alright...we're all beginners."
On the other side, Zhuang Zemin had already paddled to the center of the lake... He couldn't help but want to take a look at Cen Yu's position, so he stood on the paddleboard and turned around, only to see Cen Yu and two other people still playing bumper cars not far from the starting point.
"..." Zhuang Zemin wanted to help Cen Yu.
Unfortunately, their positions were too far apart.
Just as he was searching for Cen Yu's location, the two senior regular guests had already paddled past him at high speed on their paddleboards—
"Haha, sorry, Xiao Zhuang."
As they spoke, the two of them sped forward as if they were on an electric motor!
"..." Zhuang Zemin couldn't care less about Cen Yu at the moment; he could only deal with his own problem first.
...
Mu Fengyin slowly paddled over to Cen Yu's side. "You've never tried paddleboarding before?"
"Even Teacher Mu has never played this before?" Cen Yu couldn't believe that Mu Fengyin was so bad at it.
Mu Fengyin humbly replied, "I haven't had much experience with water sports before."
Duan Zhou cursed those two scoundrels under his breath!
He realized that Mu Fengyin was in cahoots with Cen Yu, so he decided to stop pretending!
He wouldn't be able to swallow his anger until he knocked Cen Yu into the water.
He pretended to leave slowly, and as soon as Cen Yu and Mu Fengyin separated, the paddleboard crashed into Cen Yu like a bumper car!
After being hit, Cen Yu simply fell into the water.
"Ah!" he yelled, and after falling into the water, he also overturned Duan Zhou's paddleboard.
Cen Yu chuckled and wiped the water off his face. "Sorry, Brother Zhou, I was so scared when I fell into the water that I accidentally bumped into your board."
Before Duan Zhou could react, he pushed his paddleboard forward and swam a long distance, making sure Duan Zhou couldn't catch up with him in a short time.
