Chapter 741 Haoyue Extra (3)
Wen Yue was marginalized in the Wen family from a young age, so her ability to be self-reliant is beyond question.
She was no stranger to the rural environment—there was a time when her father's leg ailment was so severe that only her mother was able to take care of him. Her mother was too exhausted to look after her, so she was sent to live with her maternal grandmother in the countryside.
She lived there for almost two years before returning to the city.
Therefore, when I saw the variety show proposal, I didn't take it too seriously.
The only downside is that there are a lot of things to worry about in the preparation process.
Since the production team said they need to be self-reliant, the amount of luggage they can bring will probably be strictly controlled. So the things they need to bring this time need to be both concise and useful.
After much deliberation, Wen Yue ended up carrying only a large backpack, without even a suitcase, and set off lightly.
Five days later, in Xiuhe Village, Beihai Town.
A white van bumped along for more than two hours before finally stopping at the village entrance.
Tang Minghao and Wen Yue got out of the car one after the other.
As soon as the director saw the two of them, he rushed over to greet them: "Minghao and Yueyue are here!"
Wen Yue greeted the director with a smile, while Tang Minghao, standing next to her, looked pale and said listlessly, "Director Wu, you're really something. It's amazing that you could find such a remote place."
Their journey took them from Kyoto to Taipei, then from Taipei they took the high-speed rail to Beihai Town, and then from Beihai Town they drove for two hours on a dirt road to finally arrive at Xiuhe Village.
Looking at it now, it really is a village.
Looking around, all you could see were gray mud houses, and the roads beneath your feet were genuine dirt tracks. A few crooked jujube trees grew nearby, bearing a few scattered fruits.
Occasionally, a tuk-tuk would drive by, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Villagers passed by in twos and threes, all wearing headscarves and tattered clothes, looking at them with great interest, and then chattering excitedly together.
It goes without saying how excited everyone must have been to meet the production team and big stars for the first time.
The director knew this location was remote, and chuckled, "If it weren't for this kind of spot, the program wouldn't have the desired effect."
Upon hearing this, Tang Minghao's face fell even more.
His original intention in participating in this variety show was to avoid returning to the Tang family.
But he seriously underestimated how "bad" this variety show was. Even if he didn't want to go back to the Tang family, he had countless places to go. Why did he have to come here to suffer?
Seeing his expression, Wen Yue hesitated for a moment, then took out a small tin box from her backpack, poured out a piece of candy, and handed it to Tang Minghao: "Want some?"
Tang Minghao looked down and saw a small candy lying in her snow-white palm, emitting a refreshing peach scent.
He paused for a moment, then reached out, grabbed it, and popped it into his mouth.
Instantly, a tangy, pungent sensation shot straight from the tip of my tongue to my brain.
He couldn't help but exclaim "Holy crap!" and looked at Wen Yue: "What is this?!"
It smells sweet like peach, but tastes cold and sour!
Wen Yue laughed at his flustered expression: "It contains mint and tamarind, which is a cure for motion sickness."
Hearing this, Tang Minghao really felt a bit clearer-headed, and the nausea he had felt from the car ride was also greatly reduced, and even the dark clouds above his head seemed to dissipate.
He clicked his tongue twice: "You have this secret recipe, but you didn't give it to me when I was in the car just now."
Wen Yue said helplessly, "I want to give it to you too, but I can't bring myself to ask you."
Tang Minghao thought about how he had slept the whole way as soon as he got on the bus, and smiled sheepishly without saying anything.
The director breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Tang Minghao's complexion was much better than before.
He was genuinely afraid that his ancestor would get upset if he saw the situation and then give up halfway through.
You should know that he didn't initially expect Tang Minghao to come. After all, with his status and background, even though everyone knows that he's just dabbling in the entertainment industry, he's never lacked resources.
He originally asked the producer to inquire with An Jing about whether Tang Minghao could be invited to participate in this variety show.
Later, they said they asked, but the other party's schedule was too tight.
This was a polite way of refusing, and he understood, so he gave up the idea of inviting him again.
Who would have thought that a few days later, things would take a turn for the better, and he would say he was coming again.
He was both happy and apprehensive.
The show's ratings are guaranteed by the new format, but the show is not as easy as other variety shows. It is definitely tiring. The show is here, but it would be even more troublesome if the cast went on strike halfway through.
Therefore, he was somewhat apprehensive when facing Tang Minghao.
Fortunately, it seems that this young master is not so difficult to please. Look, a piece of candy can turn his gloomy mood into a sunny one!
"Director, aren't there supposed to be six guests? Why are there only the two of us?" Tang Minghao was in a better mood and began to observe the production team.
Right now, the production team seems to be all present, but none of the promised guests have shown up.
“They just told me that the road into the village is difficult to travel and that we would probably be ten minutes late. Hey, here they come…” the director said, waving to two cars that were driving into the village not far away.
A short while later, both cars stopped one after the other.
The first person to get off the bus was a young girl. Wen Yue had been in the entertainment industry for quite some time and immediately recognized her as a member of a very popular girl group named Zhao Pu.
This girl is quite capable in many ways, but she seems to be a bit socially awkward and doesn't have a very high presence in the group.
It seems that she came to this variety show because no one else in her group wanted to come.
After all, it's a new type of variety show, and it's also a live broadcast. Although it's novel, it's also risky. In the entertainment industry, where people pay attention to interpersonal relationships, many people naturally don't want to come, for fear of being criticized. Otherwise, this good opportunity wouldn't have fallen into her lap.
When Zhao Pu came down, he was indeed like a little rabbit, timidly greeting them before standing a little distance away from the crowd, keeping his head down and not saying a word.
If we're talking about a grand procession, the car in the back is the one with the most impressive entourage.
As soon as the door of the white Mercedes-Benz van opened, a figure as graceful as a butterfly leaped out and rushed straight towards Tang Minghao.
She seemed to have no reservations and gave Tang Minghao a bear hug, her voice sweet as she spoke: "Brother Minghao!"
Wen Yue subconsciously took a step to the side and watched helplessly as the girl hugged Tang Minghao. If he hadn't pushed her away in time, she probably would have given him a passionate kiss next.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her chaotic emotions, and forced herself to look away.
She knew who this girl was—Tang Minghao's rumored girlfriend, Gao Yingying, who was also the eldest daughter of the Gao family of Gaoqi Pharmaceutical.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this girl was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
Six months ago, she said frankly that she entered the entertainment industry to pursue someone. Although she didn't say who she was pursuing, there are no secrets in the entertainment industry.
Who doesn't know that the person she's been longing for is Tang Minghao?
