Before he could finish, someone interrupted him, "Director, isn't that nice? You know we're so busy with work that we don't even know how to cook, let alone take care of the clothes and shelter."
The person who said this is the top young actor Su Zhou. As a new top star, he has the style of a cheerful and lively boy next door. Most of his fans also buy into this style, so what he said at this moment is in line with his character.
The director's smile widened when he heard him say that. Isn't the purpose of a show to achieve a good effect? Who wants to see everyone huddled together in a warm and friendly atmosphere, living together without any conflicts?
He continued, "Is this a mission? It's mainly to train your abilities."
Su Zhou said "Oh" and said nothing more.
The director continued to explain the rules of the game, "Our accommodations change every week, two people per room. Since we might be staying in this place this time, we'll have to go somewhere else next time. Gathering together more often will help us better develop our relationships."
"It's getting late, so this week we'll use a game of catch to determine where we'll be staying. But there's only one boy here, so there's a separate room for both sexes. Those who draw the blue ball will form a group, those who draw the red ball will form a group, and those who draw the yellow ball will form a group. Do you understand?"
After he finished speaking, the staff of the program team brought up a large box and said, "Okay, who's going first?"
In games, elders always take precedence, so the others didn't move. Xie Lin, the senior, smiled politely and said, "Thank you all for your humility. I will respectfully obey your orders."
She casually rummaged around, pulled out a ball and held it in her palm. Before she could show it, the director stopped her, "Sister Xie Lin, you want to hide it a little and give everyone a surprise."
"Okay."
She walked aside, her palms clenched tightly without revealing any color of the ball.
The remaining people looked at each other, and Gao Xiaoyue, who had the most experience, drew one, followed by the top young actor Su Zhou, and then the leading actress Song Jiayi. Then Fang Xiujiao walked over quickly and drew one. After getting it, she gave Lin Yitang a provocative look.
Lin Yitang: “…”
Okay, she doesn't really care anyway, it's just the order.
Fang Xiujiao then discovered that her previous action did not anger the man. Instead, he watched her walk over calmly and took out the last ball.
"alright."
The director loudly cued the process, "Everyone can show the ball in your hand."
When several people opened the doors, they were surprised by the assignments. Su Zhou and Song Jiayi shared a dormitory, Gao Xiaoyue and Xie Lin lived together, and Lin Yitong shared a room with her "old acquaintance" Fang Xiujiao.
Lin Yitang ignored Fang Xiujiao's ugly expression and began to think about the feasibility of this matter: This is too much of a coincidence, is the program crew really not playing any tricks?
The director was quite happy with this arrangement. The top young actor and the popular actress are of similar age and good looks, so they can be a good couple. Besides, everyone knows that Lin Yitang and Fang Xiujiao don't get along, so there will definitely be conflicts. Xie Lin and Gao Xiaoyue can enjoy a leisurely retirement life and enjoy the pastoral scenery, which is not bad either.
There were three big hot spots all of a sudden, two of which were explosive highlights. The director was so happy that his eyes narrowed with laughter.
Fang Xiujiao was not happy to live with that person, so she expressed her dissatisfaction on the spot, "Director, can this accommodation be changed? I don't want to stay in the same room with some hypocritical people."
Lin Yitang raised her eyebrows. This was the first time she had received such obvious disdain. It was really a bit strange.
The director was not about to let a cooked duck fly away. As if he hadn't heard the disgust in Fang Xiujiao's words, he said clearly: "This is all based on luck. The fact that you were assigned together means you are destined to be together. You can't change it."
Fang Xiujiao was rejected and stomped her feet in anger, but she also knew that her status was not high enough and she could not say much in front of the director, so she had to swallow her dissatisfaction.
Lin Yitang didn't say a word throughout the whole process. She also knew that what the director was pursuing was just a program effect. At present, the two who were most likely to cause conflict were her and Fang Xiujiao, so the program team would definitely go to great lengths to connect her and Fang Xiujiao. On the surface, this game was a problem of probability, but in fact it was very likely that the program team had tampered with it.
Anyway, the accommodation was settled.
The director clapped his hands. "Alright, we're going to start collecting your luggage now. Aside from some clothes, you're not allowed to bring anything else in."
Song Jiayi frowned, expressing dissatisfaction with this behavior, "Then what about us putting on makeup?"
The director said in a very impersonal manner: "This is a lifestyle variety show. It's better for everyone to be simple so that the true flavor of life can be reflected. Besides, we have a lot of tasks every day in the post-production stage. You don't have much time to put on makeup yet. Now we are just lightening your burden."
After hearing what he said, Fang Xiujiao suddenly felt fortunate that she had done some beauty treatments before participating in the show. Her skin was in very good condition now. Other people might not look as outstanding as her after removing their makeup.
Thinking of this, she looked at Lin Yitang, the most eye-catching of the ladies, and maliciously speculated: This woman looks beautiful, who knows how many layers of makeup she put on to achieve her beauty? Maybe she'd be an ugly freak without her makeup!
Lin Yitang didn't notice her gaze, put the cosmetics in her suitcase into the program crew's collection basket, and then stood aside.
Fang Xiujiao thought she had caught her mistake and walked over to her, shouting, "The director told us to put all the makeup away, so why did you only put a bottle of lotion and a bottle of sunscreen in there? That's really mean! Even someone like Xie Lin, who doesn't like makeup, put nearly half a box of stuff in there. Why are you still being so cunning?"
Lin Yitang looked at her innocently and spread her hands. "What are you talking about? I don't usually wear makeup. I only use lotion and sunscreen. These are the only two items I brought with me."
Fang Xiujiao looked closely at Lin Yitang's face, which was almost flawless, and instinctively did not believe what she said. Her expression clearly said, "You're kidding!"
The production crew didn't quite believe there were women who only used lotion and sunscreen, so a staff member came over and politely asked, "Ms. Lin, could you please check your suitcase?"
Lin Yitang moved aside generously and said, "Look."
The staff member checked the box over and over again and found that there were indeed no cosmetics inside. He stood up and nodded to the director not far away.
Fang Xiujiao practically grabbed the staff member's collar and asked, "Are you sure?"
