Chapter 89: The Competition Begins
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This thought only flashed across Liu Shi’s mind. When he came back to his senses and looked at Xia Wei again, the strange feeling that this woman gave him just now had completely dissipated, as if it was really just an illusion.
Xia Wei noticed Liu Shi’s daze, but she did not care. She just climbed onto Liu Shi’s back generously and even reminded him kindly, “Director Zhao has already called for us to get ready. If you don’t focus, we’ll lose the first round.”
Slowly carrying Xia Wei up from the ground, Liu Shi pretended to smile and replied, “I understand, Sister Weiwei. I won’t let you lose!”
As if she did not notice that Liu Shi’s way of addressing her had unknowingly changed, Xia Wei nodded slightly with a faint smile on her face. She glanced at Xin Xin and Li Xian beside them from the corner of her eye, and Zhao Ying, who was standing on the left of their group of four guests, was already playing the part of the stage supervisor.
He had a whistle on his neck. After counting down from three loudly, he blew the whistle.
The competition officially began, and the atmosphere in the venue instantly became tense. Looking at the four male guests who rushed out with the ladies on their backs, Zhao Ying smiled and walked from the wooden bridge to the end of the first round!
Although the production team said that they would cross the bridge, Xia Wei took a closer look at Liu Shi’s feet. It was only 40 centimeters wide, but the pink wooden bench was only half a meter tall. She felt a little helpless and amused. It seemed that Director Zhao’s plan for this event segment this afternoon was indeed a little rushed.
It was not Director Zhao’s goal to let the guests participate in the competition, nor was it to set a ranking for the guests. Zhao Ying’s true goal was to promote physical contact between the male and female guests. It would be best if some magical chemistry could be derived from this, just like the previous relationship between Xin Xin and Chen Yuan!
However, could the development of the matter really be as Zhao Ying had imagined? That might not be the case.
At least, the netizens who were watching the live-stream did not realize that any of the male and female guests on the set really had any feelings for each other. Even Chen Yuan and Xin Xin, who usually looked more like a couple, were separated at this moment.
Li Xian’s footsteps were still very stable, but Xin Xin did not seem to be satisfied with his speed. Xin Xin’s dissatisfaction was even more obvious when she saw that Xia Wei and Liu Shi’s cooperation was very tacit. They could move quickly while allowing Xia Wei to get the roses hanging in the basket above their heads!
Liu Shi had always been her loyal supporter. The reason why she did not care previously was because she knew that Liu Shi would never betray her.
However, when she saw Liu Shi and Xia Wei being so intimate, the jealousy and dissatisfaction in her heart seemed to be overflowing.
A trace of gloominess flashed across her eyes. As if she had thought of something, she lowered her head and whispered into Li Xian’s ear, urging him softly, “Brother Xian, we have to be faster. You don’t want to lose to others, right? This concerns whether we can get the grand prize later. You should also want to get what Xia Wei prepared!”
Li Xian was not surprised that Xin Xin knew what he was thinking. He glanced at Xia Wei and Liu Shi from the corner of his eye and sped up.
Just as the others were competing in silence, Jian Tan and Su Chu’s race track was filled with Su Chu’s laughter. “Brother Jian! Go a little further to the left. I can’t get the flowers in the basket! Alright, alright, I got them. Let’s run! Aiya, Sister Wei and the rest are so fast. We can’t lose! Charge, charge!”
Jian Tan was a little helpless against Su Chu, who was on his back like a cheerful little bird. There was a helpless smile on his face. He quickly leaned towards the direction Su Chu wanted him to go.
Just as the competition at the venue was in full swing, the netizens in the live-stream were also watching with relish. The bullet chat rolled as if it was free.
[Jian Tan’s long legs are really too superior.. This step must be as far as two steps from others, right? Damn, this man is simply too amazing!]
