Chapter 17: Story 17 (2/2)

Queer-baiting is helpful to increase the fans’ enthusiasm.

“Ha-ha, I dare not reveal the following plot right now; otherwise Director Hou may send me the blade.” Bo Yu is willing to accept Lin Yi’s friendly assistance.

Chu Xiaoxiao comes over, takes the opportunity to touch Bo Yu’s chest and says, “I have touched the hierarch’s pectoralis. You guys, guess whether Mr. Hierarch will award me the Scarlet Red at midnight?”

“The Scarlet Red is awarded by Niang Niang of the Imperial Harem. Commonly, we use the poison named crane-top red in our world!” Bo Yu holds up his end of the conversation and answers tactfully.

The faces of Qi Yan and Ran Fei who suffer from neglect at that time, become gloomy all of a sudden. Fortunately, the camera doesn’t record their gloomy facial expressions in a second, sparing more or less their feelings.

When Lin Yi feels the awkward moment, he leads the topic to Qi Yan without any trace while Bo Yu is standing aside.

“I heard that Qi Yan plays the role of young antique tutor who is very versed in both ancient and modern affairs. The tutor is so cute. After watching the prevue, my appetite is completely whetted. I’m looking forward to it.”

Qi Yan laughs and intends to talk about that topic, but Ran Fei who sits next to him interrupts. Immediately, there is something blocking his chest, that is unable to go up and down.

“The web series has been filmed for more than two months. I’m overenjoyed from the beginning to the end as I appreciate Qi Ge and Bo Ge’s acting parts.” Ran Fei says, smiling without noticing the anger on Qi Yan’s face at all.

Lin Yi laughs, remaining calm.

Bo Yu looks down and enjoys their fight.

Lin Yi hurriedly steps in for the rescue. He quips and laughs, “Okay, let’s go to the first game part——Breakup Guess.”

Breakup Challenge is a popular variety show in China. In addition to inviting stars to participate in a simple interview in every program, they will also play games with the hosts.

The key point of Breakup Guess is to divide the hosts and guests into two teams and firstly answer the questions on the screen.

There are five questions in total. If the first one gives the wrong answer, the other team will get a point and his team will be taken off a point.

Here is the group arrangement. Lin Yi leads the team including Chu Xiaoxiao and Ran Fei, and Qi Yan leads Bo Yu and Jiao Li.

Ran Fei says, laughing, “Well, please set some easy questions. Because of my lack of intelligence, I can’t answer the difficult ones.”

Chu Xiaoxiao laughs and hits him. “Are you silly? You debase yourself in front of your opponent?”

The sparse laughter sounds, and the atmosphere becomes cold.

Jiao Li is good at telling lame jokes. When the atmosphere is awkward, he will come out to break the ice.

Jiao Li has his arm around Bo Yu’s shoulders and unabashedly approaches Bo Yu, “The young general, can I be the alluring Niang Niang with my defined face when I enter the Imperial Harem?” After saying that, he casts sheep’s eyes at Bo Yu.

“You may be a alluring monk. Why must you enter the Imperial Harem after asexualizaiton?” Bo Yu answers, and ran from Jiao Li all over the hall.

The fans under the stage cover their faces and scream.

Qi Yan, who sits beside him looks very awkward.

It is obvious that he is the most important star. But these people’s topics revolve around Bo Yu from the beginning, and they completely ignore him!

And Ran Fei, who is well- behaved offstage tries his best to steal the show from him onstage. Such black-hearted man rushes to reply the questions.

After jokes, the game begins.

“The first question is, what is the essential difference between Breakup Challenge three years ago and Breakup Challenge right now?”

Bo Yu answers in a second, “Time.”

“Wrong!”

Ran Fei answers immediately, “One is three years ago and the other is three years later.”

“Wrong!”

Jiao Li laughs.

Chu Xiaoxiao says, “The guests are different.”

“Wrong!”

Bo Yu says hesitantly, “The host is three years older than before?”

Chu Xiaoxiao looks at him with angry eyes, but the indicator light turns green. “Congratulations! You’re right!”

The audiences laugh, and nobody has thought that the answer to that question is so peculiar.

“... Last question, when will the Man’s Survival officially broadcast?

Qi Yan answers, “The day after tomorrow, at eight o’clock in the evening.”

“Congratulations! You’re right!”

After the Rush-to-Answer part, Chu Xiaoxiao shouts that she won’t let the director group off, stretching her neck. The essential difference between Breakup Challenge three years ago and three years later is that the host is older.

As the leader of the winner, Qi Yan can start the second game before ten seconds. And the loser can do nothing but wait for ten seconds.

The second game—pthe three-people relay obstacle race starts.

With the advantage of Bo Yu’s strong waist and long legs, he takes a large step and gets the balloons five meters away in an instant. Then he ties the three balloons together, carefully places them in the armpits, avoids the small obstacles lying on the ground, runs to Qi Yan and hands the balloons to him.

Qi Yan takes the balloons from Bo Yu, turns around and jumps onto the bouncing bed. According to the rule, he must keep the balloons in the armpits and ensures that the balloons can’t be removed or exploded when he bounces.

After a while, Qi Yan is exhausted and panting.
