Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Oops, she forgot to remind the fifth brother
"Okay, good luck to you then."
In the dimly lit building, Bai Qingqing smiled and blessed Pu Yueling, her eyes full of sincerity.
Pu Yueling's brain reacted slowly.
Chen Ruihao was also stunned for a moment: "Let Yueling go find it alone?"
He obviously already regarded Pu Yueling as a companion.
Bai Qingqing looked puzzled: "This is a solo mission, there's no way I can help you, right? Our team has already completed it, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of an old machine suddenly rang out, and a dazzling red light suddenly lit up not far away, illuminating the entire space red.
A safe slowly appeared before their eyes.
The three of them approached, and Chen Ruihao read out the note on the safe under the flashing red light: "Invite the winning team to get close to the bracelet to receive the reward. Xiao Tiantian, come and try to get close?"
Little Sweetie Bai Qingqing: "..."
Bai Qingqing raised her hand and leaned forward casually. As expected, the safe opened, revealing two cards inside. Pu Yueling turned her head away at the right time.
One is the prop card mentioned in the broadcast just now, which is specifically used in the punishment phase; the other is their next task guide, asking them to go to the K area hall on the L floor to take a rest.
Chen Ruihao and Bai Qingqing watched together. He touched the back of his head and said to Pu Yueling embarrassedly, "It seems that we really have to act separately next."
"Yueling, I wish you good luck."
Pu Yueling still had some cards in her hand, so she shook them in her hand and said, "Don't worry, the card spirit will guide me in the right direction. See you later!"
On the back of the task card was a simplified map card with a red dot marking their location. Chen Ruihao volunteered to look at the map and lead the way. He was the first to identify the direction and lead the way.
Bai Qingqing followed him slowly.
It took some time to get there. Bai Qingqing remained quiet the entire time and didn't say anything. Chen Ruihao had never seen her in the industry before and guessed that she was a newcomer who was nervous in front of the camera and didn't know what to say.
But if they don’t say anything, their shots will be reduced in post-production.
Chen Ruihao was an actor by profession. Although he was a little obscure, he was considered Bai Qingqing's senior in the program recording. After enduring five minutes of silence, he finally confirmed that Bai Qingqing would never take the initiative to speak.
He took on the responsibility of their group of shots, deliberately slowed down his pace, walked beside her and said: "My greeting just now was too brief, and I don't know your name yet. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Chen Ruihao, and I'm an actor."
"Bai Qingqing." Bai Qingqing thought about her profession and added, "I'm a Feng Shui master. If you have any needs in this area, please feel free to contact me. My price is very fair."
She paused: "She is also very strong."
Bai Qingqing touched the business card out of habit.
But then she thought about it and realized that this was no longer her world. She didn't have a business card holder or business cards with her. Bai Qingqing felt in her pocket and put her hand down again.
Chen Ruihao didn't expect her to be so enthusiastic about metaphysics. The contrast made him stunned for a moment, and he nodded stutteringly: "Okay, if anything happens, I will definitely treat you."
Bai Qingqing showed a sincere smile.
Assembly hall.
The program team's usual girlish style was reproduced, with pink bubbles popping out of every detail, which seemed out of place in the old abandoned building.
The circular hall was brightly lit, with six large screens in the middle showing the heartbeats of the six players. A circle of soft sofas surrounded the screens, all empty at this moment, waiting to welcome their first group of guests.
On the table next to them were snacks and drinks from sponsors, as well as various inflatable stress-relieving toys, apparently for the runners who finished early to relax and rest.
Chen Ruihao was not interested in sitting there doing nothing. He sat in front of the small TV, stretched his neck to take a look, and exclaimed to Bai Qingqing: "Qingqing, you can see other people's images here."
Bai Qingqing took a look and saw that Pu Yueling and Zan Fang were occupying one each. The camera just happened to show the number of floors, so they should have found the so-called punishment room at about the same time.
Now it all depends on who finds their partner first.
The other two screens were dark, as if they were not turned on, but if you looked carefully at the screen, you could see some movement.
Chen Ruihao took a pair of headphones hanging under a small "black screen" TV and put them on his head. After listening for a while, he spoke silently to Bai Qingqing: There is a sound here, do you want to come and listen?
Each small TV only came with one headset. Bai Qingqing didn't like getting too close to people, so she shook her head and declined, running to eat some snacks and quietly waiting for the second group to arrive.
More than half an hour later.
Finally, there were noisy voices outside the door. Bai Qingqing turned around while chewing on duck neck. Chen Ruihao was already sleeping on the sofa with headphones on.
She processed the duck bones, took off her gloves, wiped her hands with wet wipes, woke up Chen Ruihao, and the two of them faced the door together.
Bai Qingqing doesn't shoot variety shows, but she knows proper manners.
Probably to keep things a surprise, the production crew didn't allow the contestants to meet each other beforehand. Bai Qingqing arrived at the location designated by the production crew, and without doing anything, she was blindfolded and transferred here.
Not to mention the contestants, she hasn’t even met the director yet.
Chen Ruihao had never seen them before, and although he didn't know who they were, he took out his stress-relieving toys and hid behind the door, ready to scare them.
Bai Qingqing sat on the sofa in the middle, facing the door, propping her chin with one hand, and admonished him: "I advise you to put away the hammer."
Chen Ruihao didn't have time to comprehend Bai Qingqing's words.
The laughter was getting closer. The door of the assembly hall was pushed again after more than half an hour. Chen Ruihao raised the inflatable hammer in his hand. The two girls who were separated by the door seemed to have noticed something quickly and stopped one step behind.
Pu Yueling grabbed Bai Muning's wrist, and the two of them stood behind.
There were two boys in front. The tall and strong man raised his eyebrows. Before he entered the door, he stretched out his hand, reached into the crack of the door and grabbed to the right.
Zan Fang took out a talisman in his hand and was about to throw it when he suddenly saw the camera. He remembered that he was recording a show, so he forced his hand back and looked behind the door with the others.
Chen Ruihao and the strange man held hands, grabbed an inflatable hammer, and looked into each other's eyes.
On the big screen, Chen Ruihao's heartbeat increased rapidly, and Bai Qingqing's bracelet also vibrated several times.
Bai Qingqing: “…” Good job, you figured out where the number 272 came from.
Pu Yueling covered her mouth and laughed as she walked into the room, passing by Chen Ruihao: "I think you two are a little ambiguous."
Behind her, Bai Muning saw Bai Qingqing's eyes paused on the sofa, and she held her breath instantly, freezing in place.
Bai Qingqing noticed her gaze and turned to meet her gaze.
Sitting there in the simplest short-sleeved shirt and jeans, she seemed out of place with the commotion at the door, yet she was calm and composed, as if she had the confidence to appear anywhere.
The production team kept the members secret. Bai Muning didn’t expect to actually meet Bai Qingqing here. How could she dare... ?
Bai Muning was considerate of the people around him and looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. It took him a lot of effort to make his expression normal so as not to be too surprised.
She unclenched her fists and calmed her thoughts.
It doesn't matter.
Even if Bai Qingqing forced her way in, she would soon find out that this place was no place for her.
Bai Muning raised his lips, a playful smile in his eyes, and responded to Pu Yueling's words: "Sure enough, we are participating in a dating show! Congratulations to the first pair of guests for successfully holding hands!"
Chen Ruihao and the big man let go of their hands at the same time. The atmosphere became awkward and ambiguous, and both of them didn't know where to put their hands and feet.
“Ding Dong——”
The sound of the radio broke the brief silence.
"Congratulations to all three groups for passing the test. Hart would like to formally welcome everyone to the recording of this season. Next, please take your seats at the roundabout. Let's play a quick question and answer game in turns to relieve your nervousness!"
Chen Ruihao seemed to have found his backbone immediately. He pointed to Bai Qingqing and walked over first: "Is this the roundabout? Haha."
Pu Yueling had a good impression of Bai Qingqing, so she sat on the other side of her. The three girls sat together, and the boys sat on the other side. They listened to the broadcast overhead and started playing games.
It was an hour and a half after the show was finally recorded, and it was already dark outside. We recorded from "midnight" to the real midnight.
Director Wu, who had been hiding behind Hart for half a day, came out in person, sent the contestants off, and said hello to everyone: "Tomorrow we will start our first episode. The program will be broadcast live. The directors will send the detailed rules to you in the form of a document tonight."
"Then please have a good rest tonight, and we'll see you tomorrow!"
We started recording at 5pm and ended at nearly 11pm.
There was basically no rest during the trip. Except for Bai Qingqing and Chen Ruihao, who were the first group to successfully join together, no one ate much. Chen Ruihao suggested to everyone: "Today is the first day, let's get together in the evening and get to know each other better?"
Bai Qingqing was the first to refuse: "I want to go home."
Bai Muning glanced at Bai Qingqing, hiding the expression in his eyes, and smiled with a hint of embarrassment and regret: "Sorry, it's not convenient for me. I have homework at school. I have to go back to finish it, and I may have to stay up all night."
Everyone knew that Bai Muning was still a senior in high school, so they nodded in understanding, with sympathy in their eyes.
Zan Fang also refused to go, saying directly: "I won't go."
He even walked away right after he finished speaking, nodded to everyone as a greeting, then walked out of the studio door and got in a taxi and left.
The few people who stayed behind were dumbfounded.
When recording the show, I only knew that this Taoist priest was a man of few words, but I didn't expect he had such a weird personality.
Pu Yueling was stunned by the Taoist priest. She looked at the car driving away and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. She said to Chen Ruihao, "What I eat tonight will determine whether I am free or not."
Chen Ruihao ignored her and asked Bai Qingqing: "I can understand Mu Ning and the Taoist priest, but why didn't you come? Why did you rush home? Do you have homework too?"
He felt that the two of them got along pretty well today, and they should at least have the camaraderie of having a meal together!
Bai Qingqing smiled sincerely: "I will go home to practice."
It’s good to shoot a metaphysical variety show, any excuse is acceptable.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Bai Qingqing left. The Bai family's car had already arrived and was waiting for her under the building.
Two cars from the Bai family were parked one in front of the other, one waiting for Bai Qingqing and the other waiting for Bai Muning.
Bai Qingqing thought Bai Muning had already left, but she didn't expect to see her in front of the car. It seemed like she had something to say to her.
Sure enough, Bai Muning called her over and hesitated a little before speaking, but she still made up her mind, as if she had made the decision for a long time.
"Qingqing, I didn't expect to actually see you here."
Bai Qingqing stopped.
"Actually, you don't have to be like this. In order to prove yourself, you come to record the same variety show with me and step into a circle you don't understand. I know you feel bad too." Bai Muning bit his lower lip and frowned.
"I never thought of competing with you, Qingqing. If you really mind me being here, I...I can leave and return mom and dad to you."
"I hope everyone can have a happy ending..."
Bai Muning spoke seriously, not noticing that Bai Qingqing's brows were also furrowed. As he listened to her words, he reached into her large bag, fished out a card, and waved it in front of her eyes.
"I, No. 1, have been waiting for you in the assembly hall for more than half an hour, otherwise I would have been off work long ago. Now I'm going home to sleep, which I call staying up late. You want to stay up all night, but I don't want it."
Bai Muning opened his eyes wide and was suddenly speechless.
That was just her excuse for rejection...
But Bai Qingqing smiled, her lips raised, and she said provocatively: "Which of us is not suitable for this show?"
"Also, do you feel that you have robbed my parents and family? So you want to 'give' them back to me?" Bai Qingqing spoke each word with emphasis at the end.
Bai Muning's face turned pale, and his thin body swayed in the wind, as if he had suffered a severe blow.
Bai Qingqing was too lazy to try to figure out her emotions. There were no spectators around, and she didn't know who she was showing her red eyes to. She put the prop card in her bag, opened the car door, and told the driver to drive away.
Bai family.
Ao Xinyi and Bai Shuting were waiting for their children to come home on the sofa at the door. Next to them was Ao Teng, who stretched his neck and looked forward to seeing their children coming home, looking more eager for them to come home than the parents themselves.
The sound of a car approached, and Ao Teng was the first to rush out. Before the staff came up, he opened the back door and greeted with a smile: "Qingqing, you're back. How was your day? Did everything go well?"
"Yeah, it went pretty smoothly."
Bai Qingqing got out of the car and asked him, "How are you doing? How are the original contestants arranged?"
"He was given the second male lead in a drama. He worked hard and got the job! It's much better than being on this variety show. He's very happy now, don't worry!"
"good."
The two of them walked into the house while talking.
It was nearly midnight, and the lights were still on in the Bai family's house. Ao Xinyi and Bai Shuting rushed out to greet the children. The first question they asked was exactly the same as Ao Teng's: "Qingqing, you're back. How was your day? Was everything going well?"
Bai Qingqing looked at Ao Xinyi and chuckled, then glanced at Ao Teng and nodded back, "Yeah, it went well."
Ao Xinyi was much more worried than Ao Teng. He didn't quite believe it and kept asking her, "Are you used to recording a variety show on your first day? I heard it's a live broadcast tomorrow, right? Each person will have a single live broadcast room. Qingqing, if you don't feel used to it and want to make other plans, it's okay to tell mom and I'll help you."
Bai Qingqing smiled: "I am the first place today. I did very well. I will do well in every issue in the future."
"Okay, okay, that's good. Our Qingqing is the best!" Ao Xinyi led Bai Qingqing into the house, while Bai Shuting adjusted his pace beside him to match the speed of the mother and daughter.
The group walked to the restaurant.
Ao Xinyi: "You must be hungry after recording all night. I asked someone to heat up the food. It's very light. Do you want to have a bite?"
Ao Xinyi said as he pulled out a chair for her.
The table was filled with food, most of which were to suit her taste. Bai Qingqing actually felt a little hungry after seeing this, so she sat down.
While responding, he looked at Ao Xinyi. As soon as he said thank you, his eyes paused on her face.
Ao Xinyi was very happy to know that she was willing to eat, and he and Bai Shuting sat down opposite her. Bai Qingqing looked at their faces from the opposite side and frowned.
[The children's palace is damaged, there is a big black bear vertical line on the philtrum, and the dark energy under the eyes has become a trend. Look at the extent of this...]
Bai Qingqing glanced around the room. Bai Lincheng was leaning on the sofa looking at a tablet. He looked up and made eye contact with her.
Bai Qingqing: "Where's Bai Songxu?"
Ao Xinyi and Bai Shuting were shocked when they suddenly heard their daughter's inner voice. When she asked, Ao Xinyi immediately said, "He will be performing tomorrow. He is in the training camp tonight. He will probably have to rehearse all night."
Ao Xinyi smiled reluctantly, pretending to know nothing, and clenched his hands tightly under the table: "Why are you suddenly asking about Xiaowu?"
Bai Muning arrived home a step behind. She had said hello in advance and would stay at home tonight.
She thought her parents would be waiting for her at the door, but when she came back she didn't see them. She asked the staff at home and found out that they were in the restaurant.
As soon as I entered the room, I heard these words and my heart skipped a beat.
Oh no.
Ah Fu asked her to remind Fifth Brother before that Huang Shaoqi took 500,000 yuan to estimate whether he would make his debut. Tomorrow is the group's formation night, so nothing should happen tonight, right?
