Chapter 17 Embracing a Handsome Guy
The weekend filming proceeded as scheduled, seemingly to see how the "Together Towards Happiness" production team would handle last week's live broadcast mishap, and to see if Song Shiwei was still there. As soon as this week's episode started, countless netizens flooded into the live broadcast room.
All the cameras turned on promptly at nine o'clock. Some people were already busy making breakfast in the kitchen, while others were still sleeping.
[Watching the drama unfold from the front row]
[Where's Song Shiwei? Holy crap, could she really have been squeezed out by capital?]
[Is Song Shiwei really missing? The entertainment industry is indeed full of shady dealings.]
The screen was filled with people asking where Song Shiwei was, and the director was urgently directing operations backstage.
"Quickly, send someone to wake Song Shiwei up!"
Upon receiving the instructions, the filming crew wrote a sign for Xia Zhiqing, who was waiting downstairs, asking her to wake Song Shiwei up so that they could dispel the rumors.
Xia Zhiqing received the notification without making a sound, then got up and went to the third floor.
There was no response after knocking. Xia Zhiqing pushed the door open, assuming that Song Shiwei was not there, but she looked carefully before confirming that she was not home.
Song Shiwei didn't know how she fell asleep. She lay sprawled on the bed like a pancake, the blanket covering her from head to toe. She didn't move at all, as if she hadn't slept at all.
Xia Zhiqing got into bed and tried to pretend to be close to Song Shiwei by hugging her and acting coquettishly.
As soon as she touched Song Shiwei, Song Shiwei instinctively jumped up, stood up on her hands and feet, and shouted in a strong voice:
"I'll hit you—"
Finally, he even did Bruce Lee's signature pose, saying, "Was the production team trying to prank us? Hahaha, I caught them!"
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the person she had knocked to the ground was Xia Zhiqing.
Xia Zhiqing's expression was also not good. She suppressed her anger and forced a smile, "Weiwei, what are you doing? I came to wake you up."
Song Shiwei blinked twice. "I'm sorry, my body detected the fragrance of green tea. I thought it was a prank by the production team."
Xia Zhiqing bit her lip, a hint of resentment in her eyes, "Hurry up and come downstairs for dinner."
[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Bruce Lee's successor!]
[So Song Shiwei is still around. This woman is pretty tough.]
[Sister Wei knows how to talk; she's arrived with a refreshing, green tea scent.]
[How can Song Shiwei be so disrespectful? Our Qingbao kindly woke her up, and she just responded with sarcastic remarks!]
After going downstairs and having breakfast, the production team had the guests sit under the grape trellis in the courtyard.
The production team said, "This week we have two guest stars. There are some clues on the cards I have here. You can guess who they are. The person who guesses correctly will have priority in choosing who they are in the upcoming activities."
The sign features two silhouettes and is accompanied by generic labels such as "high emotional intelligence," "Prince of Love Songs," and "National Idol."
Chi Yanzhou was standing to the side picking and eating grapes, completely unaware of the director's words, and was almost out of the frame.
The others frowned in thought. Xia Zhiqing and Xu Xiyao tried to name a few people, but none of them were correct.
Song Shiwei crossed her legs and said, "Qiao Shuishui and Zhou Zeyu."
The other four people froze for a moment. After a few seconds of hesitation, the director said awkwardly, "Congratulations to Ms. Song Shiwei for guessing correctly."
"Didn't they arrive last night? They even had hot pot with us, so what are they pretending for?" Song Shiwei asked, puzzled.
"Maybe it's just to fool the audience."
Chi Yanzhou handed a bunch of grapes he couldn't finish to Song Shiwei.
There was an awkward moment, and the world seemed to go silent for a instant.
Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! This woman is truly brave!
Song Shiwei, you're telling the truth!
[The production team was once again completely dumbfounded by Sister Wei, hahaha]
The director awkwardly changed the subject, "Now, please welcome the well-known entertainment host Qiao Shuishui and idol singer Zhou Zeyu to the stage! Welcome!"
Two people got out of the car at the entrance.
The first thing to appear was a pair of straight, long legs. The owner of these legs had a sunny and handsome face, with a small dimple on his right cheek. His bright and youthful face was adorned with a buzz cut, which made his bright features stand out even more, adding a touch of ruggedness.
After he got out of the car, he gentlemanly held onto the door frame and helped another girl out.
The girl had her hair tied in a cute bun, a slender figure, a pure and lovely face, and exceptionally clear and clean round eyes with delicate and petite features.
The two people walked over smiling, "Hello everyone!"
After a few brief pleasantries, they began assigning tasks for the morning.
Eight people will go to water the nursery, divided into four groups, and choose their watering tools according to the competition.
Although Song Shiwei guessed the guest star correctly, her honesty meant the production team didn't give her any special privileges; instead, everyone had to compete.
"Tch! Can't take a joke!" Song Shiwei muttered under her breath.
The production team had already divided the eight people into groups: Song Shiwei and Zhou Zeyu, Chi Yanzhou and Xu Xiyao, Xia Zhiqing and Bai Yining, and Qiao Shuishui and Cheng Yi.
The production team showcased the irrigation equipment in turn: sprinklers, rubber hoses, water tickets and buckets, as well as watering cans for watering flowers.
The production team said, "Next, there are four small baskets in front of us in the courtyard. Each group will have the boys carry the girls in a princess carry to the designated location. The more balls you put in the baskets, the higher your ranking."
Song Shiwei frowned as she listened to this cheesy game. It seemed like they were trying to create a couple. Indeed, everything was inseparable from shipping couples.
“Director, I don’t think this game is difficult.” Song Shiwei raised her hand.
Director: "Friendship first, competition second, what's with the difficulty!"
Chi Yanzhou said leisurely, "This game is too cliché, it has no originality at all."
He's just lazy; he doesn't want to carry someone around like an idiot.
The director changed his question, "So, what suggestions do you have?"
Chi Yanzhou nudged Song Shiwei with his elbow, "What kind of lousy idea did you come up with with that little brain of yours?"
"I think the girls should hug the boys," Song Shiwei suggested.
She doesn't want others to take advantage of her, but she can take advantage of others.
Having a handsome man in your arms must be a wonderful thing, something you could dream about and wake up laughing.
I agree!
Chi Yanzhou raised both hands in agreement. That's great! He doesn't have to move; he can be a little princess now!
Xia Zhiqing and Xu Xiyao looked embarrassed and clearly reluctant.
"I think it's a good idea! I dream of hugging a handsome guy, director, give me a chance, hahaha," Qiao Shuishui joked.
Ultimately, the production team agreed.
Song Shiwei rubbed her hands together, cracking her knuckles, "Let's go all out, seize first place, give it our all, Weiwei is the coolest!"
Looking at Song Shiwei's petite frame, Zhou Zeyu hesitated and asked, "Will this... will this work?"
Song Shiwei assumed a horse stance, patted her thighs, and opened her arms wide, "Come on, little baby!"
“..........”
As soon as the whistle blew, Song Shiwei took the lead and ran out.
Qiao Shuishui followed closely behind, carrying Cheng Yi in her arms. Cheng Yi was tall and strong, so he put his weight on Qiao Shuishui's shoulders and kept comforting her, "Slow down, no need to rush."
Only Xia Zhiqing and Xu Xiyao remained in the same spot. Bai Yining was relatively thin, but Xia Zhiqing seemed to have difficulty carrying him.
Hsu Hsi-yao shyly complained, "Oh dear, I really can't carry you! What should I do?"
Chi Yanzhou's eyes gleamed with impatience. "What are you pretending for, big sister?"
Please, we girls aren't that weak... What are those two doing...?
[Shui Shui is as tomboyish as ever, hahaha]
[Sister Wei is awesome!]
[Our Brother Zhou is a tea connoisseur, hahaha]
In the end, Song Shiwei deservedly came in first, Qiao Shuishui second, Xia Zhiqing third, and Xu Xiyao didn't even manage to carry anyone out.
Zhou Zeyu handed Song Shiwei a bottle of water and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be so strong."
"Wow, with a handsome man in my arms, my adrenaline is soaring! It's nothing, it's all a piece of cake!"
On the other side, Chi Yanzhou had a gloomy face, while Xu Xiyao apologized in a coquettish tone, "Brother Yanzhou, I really don't have any strength left!"
Chi Yanzhou crossed his arms, his face full of satisfaction.
Hmph! He didn't even get the treatment of a little princess!
