Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Fighting begins (1000...)
The director announced the rules through a megaphone.
"Guests must stand in the designated area. Each guest has a water balloon of a certain color. Hitting someone with a water balloon scores one point. The first guest to be hit by ten water balloons is eliminated. The last guest to survive has the first choice of the prize prepared by the production team."
"Each guest has a total of fifty water balloons. Now, male guests, please stand in the designated area and get ready to start the competition."
The male guests, all dressed in beach shorts, showed off their perfect physiques, much to the delight of the viewers in the live stream.
[Wow, the male guests have amazing bodies! Their muscles look so good I just want to touch them.]
It's uncertain who will win this competition.
I'm betting on the third male lead; he has the strongest explosive power, and he'll definitely take first place this time.
This game isn't a race, so it feels like anyone could come in first.
[I'm nervous; I don't know what the reward from the show will be.]
The production team prepared four colors of water balloons: blue for Gu Junsheng, orange for Li Yichen, purple for Lu Xubai, and yellow for Shen Wuyang.
The male guests were divided into four groups, each occupying a corner. The atmosphere looked very serious, and no one had a smile on their face. This was a competition, and each male guest had to do their best to eliminate their opponent.
Only by quickly eliminating opponents can one gain the right to be selected first.
At the sound of a whistle from the staff, someone moved.
Lu Xubai swung his long arm, and a purple water ball streaked through the air like a bullet, shooting towards Li Yichen.
Li Yichen was wary of everyone from the start. He dodged the purple water ball by tilting his head, a carefree smile on his face.
"Hey, don't hit someone in the face! My face is insured for hundreds of millions; you can't afford to pay for it if you damage it!"
Lu Xubai's voice was cold and hard, revealing a hint of contempt: "I could easily give you two faces."
The two male guests were locked in a fierce battle of wits, leaving the audience speechless.
[Holy crap, what's going on?!]
Why did the third male lead start targeting the second male lead? Shouldn't his number one rival be the fourth male lead?
[Hahahaha, that person deserves to be targeted.]
[It's obvious the third male lead really dislikes the second male lead's face, haha.]
[The two male guests got into a fight over the female guest; it was quite a spectacle.]
[The production team is a genius for coming up with this game; this is going to be a good show, let's see them fight!]
The female guests were equally shocked as they watched the scene unfold.
Xia Yuqing was happy to see Li Yichen being targeted, and she cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted, "Go Lu Xubai! Eliminate Li Yichen quickly! Go for it!"
Qiao Yimo was overwhelmed by the clarification from Li Yichen's studio last night and didn't sleep well at all. Seeing Li Yichen being targeted by Lu Xubai, she felt secretly pleased.
She liked Li Yichen, but she couldn't stand his arrogant attitude. He appeared gentle and gentlemanly, but his deep and charming eyes were indifferent and devoid of emotion, as if everyone in the world was a scoundrel in his eyes.
How wonderful it would be if Li Yichen fell from his pedestal and begged her for forgiveness in pain and humility.
Song Yi turned to look at Chu Ruofu, secretly wondering if Lu Xubai was targeting Li Yichen because of Chu Ruofu, but why?
"Who do you think will come in first place?" Song Yi asked.
Chu Ruofu felt very hot and was in a daze. When she heard Song Yi ask her a question, she glanced at the men fighting fiercely on the field and shook her head, saying, "I don't know."
Within the designated area of the program, Lu Xubai skillfully dodged the water balloons of the other male guests, specifically targeting Li Yichen.
With a playful smile on his face, Li Yichen nimbly dodged the water balls one by one. After so many years of wire work and martial arts training, his flexibility was better than others.
Gu Junsheng silently calculated on the side. Among the male guests, Lu Xubai had the biggest advantage. At this moment, Li Yichen was hit by a water balloon, but Lu Xubai was still relentlessly pursuing him.
Shen Wuyang stays at home all year round. Although he exercises and works out, his routine is not as regular as theirs, so there is nothing to worry about.
Gu Junsheng's eyes, sharp behind his glasses, immediately began to implement his calculated plan. He said to Chen Wuyang, "Let's cooperate."
Shen Wuyang paused for a moment, looked at the aloof and mature man, nodded and immediately agreed to Gu Junsheng's suggestion. He knew that even if he tried his best, he might not be able to get first place, but he couldn't be at the bottom again.
He wanted to demonstrate to Fufu that he could protect her.
Gu Junsheng quickly approached Shen Wuyang and whispered, "Eliminate Li Yichen first, then eliminate Lu Xubai together."
“Okay,” Shen Wuyang replied.
The male guests' voices were recorded and broadcast live, which excited the audience even more.
I love mature men who are calm and rational.
I definitely like men with brains; they're so charming.
[People who can become CEOs are usually quite shrewd; at this rate, the second and third male leads will be eliminated first.]
Is this kind of collaboration still possible?
The production team didn't stipulate that guests couldn't collaborate.
Li Yichen tried his best to evade Lu Xubai's pursuit, but the arrival of Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang left him with nowhere to hide in the not-so-wide area.
A hint of anxiety flashed across his face. He glanced around and said, "Is it necessary for everyone to target me?"
Li Yichen dodged Gu Junsheng's water ball and said, "President Gu, Master Shen, how about the three of us eliminate Lu Xubai first?"
With the addition of Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang, Li Yichen's scoreboard reached six, while Lu Xubai's scoreboard only showed four. Gu Junsheng glanced at it and declined indifferently.
"You're about to be eliminated."
A purple water ball pierced the air and suddenly hit the distracted Li Yichen, bursting into a spray that soaked his cheeks and hair. The water flowed down his smooth muscles, making him look exceptionally sexy.
Li Yichen reached out and wiped his face, a hint of coldness flashing in his beautiful fox-like eyes, but a smile still lingered on his lips. Before he was eliminated, he fiercely hurled all the water balloons at Lu Xubai.
Soon, the staff announced: "Li Yichen is out!"
Li Yichen left the competition venue, and the current scores are: Lu Xubai seven, Gu Junsheng three, and Shen Wuyang two, which is quite a big difference.
Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang exchanged a glance, and the two began to hunt down Lu Xubai at the same time. Lu Xubai, like a wounded black panther, exuded animalistic wildness, nimbly dodging the two water spheres and retaliating.
Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang didn't gain any advantage, only managing to score one point, while the two players scored two goals, gradually narrowing the score gap.
The atmosphere on the field was heated. Li Yichen, who was eliminated first, dried his hair with a towel and casually walked over to Chu Ruofu. His voice was slightly magnetic: "Does this count as me bearing too much for you?"
Chu Ruofu glanced at him, nonchalantly saying, "You deserve it."
“It’s true that I deserve it.” Li Yichen leaned closer and whispered in her ear, “A certain male guest was extremely jealous and regarded me as his number one rival in love. If I don’t do something, how can I face him?”
The man's warm breath sprayed on her neck, bringing a tingling, itchy sensation. Chu Ruofu turned her head away, avoiding his closeness.
Li Yichen looked at the field and gave Lu Xubai, who was still fighting, a provocative look.
A chill settled over Lu Xubai's handsome face. He was momentarily distracted and was then surrounded and attacked by Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang. After taking down a few of them, he was eventually eliminated.
The staff announced: "Lu Xubai is out!"
Only Gu Junsheng and Shen Wuyang remained on the field. Gu Junsheng had eight points and Shen Wuyang had nine points. There was no suspense between the two. Shen Wuyang was eliminated by Gu Junsheng, and Gu Junsheng won first place in this game competition.
Live stream chat:
[Wow, that was amazing! The male lead was relatively unknown last episode, but he really stood out this time.]
[Aaaaaaah, I'm banging my head against a wall for the male lead! He's so damn handsome!]
[It's such a pity about the third male lead. If he hadn't been targeted by the first and fourth male leads, he would definitely have won first place this time.]
[It's entertaining and I love watching it. I hope the show will feature more battles from the male guests.]
The male guests have finished their game tasks, and the female guests will now need to prepare to start their own games.
Xia Yuqing ran towards Lu Xubai with a water bottle, a smile on her face: "Are you tired? Have some water. You were so cool on the field just now. You should have given Li Yichen a good slap in the face."
Lu Xubai did not take the water offered to him, but strode towards Chu Ruofu, looking at Li Yichen with icy eyes.
"Too bad it didn't hit your face. Next time, you won't be able to dodge it so easily."
Li Yichen narrowed his fox-like eyes slightly, a pleased smile curving his lips, and said, "Then good luck."
Even after the competition ended, a strong sense of tension remained between the two, leaving the production crew stunned and even a little worried that the male guests might start fighting.
The director quickly announced, "Male guests, please rest first. Female guests, please go to the stage and get ready."
Chu Ruofu quietly slipped away from the two of them and ran to the place where the staff were guiding her, where she stood obediently.
The production team prepared water balloons for the female guests that would break easily when smashed: pink for Chu Ruofu, cyan for Song Yi, red for Qiao Yimo, and yellow for Xia Yuqing.
The female guests stood in line, waiting for the production team to sound the whistle.
The staff blew the whistle, and the competition officially began. The female guests on the field were wearing swimsuits and picking up water balloons to observe.
Without thinking, Qiao Yimo threw the water balloon at Xia Yuqing. Xia Yuqing, though not hit, felt a surge of anger and picked up the water balloon to throw at Qiao Yimo.
Song Yi watched the male guest's entire battle and admired Gu Junsheng's approach. While Qiao Yimo and Xia Yuqing were throwing things at each other, she quickly approached Chu Ruofu and sent her a team invitation.
"Let's eliminate them together first."
Chu Ruofu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
After all, none of us are professional athletes. Running and dodging in the designated area is very physically demanding. The female guest was slightly less fit and started panting after a while. Her face was flushed and she looked exceptionally pretty.
Live stream chat:
I enjoy watching the female guests argue and fight.
Sister Song caught Fu Mei, who was out of the loop, and is going to help her win.
In this game, whoever launches the first attack is most likely to fall into a trap.
[I feel like Qiao Yimo will be eliminated first. Xia Yuqing has better physical fitness, so she shouldn't be at the bottom.]
[I can't take it anymore, it's so erotic! Will the male guests get nosebleeds seeing the female guests in their swimsuits playing with water balloons?]
[At this point, I can already predict who will come out on top: the clever Sister Song will definitely be first, and Sister Fu will be second.]
