I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 118: You Start, I Guess

After the guys finished chatting about all the things they should and shouldn’t discuss, the girls emerged from the dressing room.

They were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Li Yang’s attention was drawn to them, watching them talk and laugh, his eyes filled with confusion.

He couldn’t quite understand the sudden harmony among the girls; it felt as if his teammates were forming alliances behind his back, a bit weird.

"We’re ready, we can head to the next place!"

The girls walked over and joined their respective teams. Mu Qiu and Lin Xixi were returning to Li Yang’s side, passing through the Yellow Team.

She had tied her ponytail again, and as she walked, it gently swayed behind her and emitted a faint fragrance. When she passed by Cheng Zhirang, she looked up and smiled at him.

Cheng Zhirang was momentarily stunned by her bright smile, and the corners of his mouth curved up in response.

Sometimes, greetings don’t need words; expressions and body language can be more infectious. Her smile reminded people of good weather and a good mood, making them smile uncontrollably too.

The ponytail swept past in front of him; her freshly washed, fluffy long hair looked soft and clean, with an impressive volume.

Cheng Zhirang’s gaze lingered on her hair for two more seconds.

It’s said that those engaging in mental creativity don’t have abundant hair; how come she has so much?

His hand, hanging by his side, lightly clenched as he casually thought that one hand might just be able to hold all her hair.

The scent disappeared as she walked away, and Cheng Zhirang looked back at the camera in front of him, maintaining his composed smile as if the thoughts in his mind had never occurred.

With everyone gathered, the director raised his exclusive small megaphone: "Alright, everyone is here. Follow the staff to the car, and head to the destination for the third game, Sunshine City."

Sunshine City is a standalone circular building facing east to west in Little Paradise, uniquely designed with an interior that resembles an airport. During the day, the roof can be opened to let sunlight in, and on rainy days, the glass roof can be raised for the experience of listening to the rain while having tea. It’s one of the main attractions promoted in Little Paradise.

Mu Qiu got off the sightseeing car and walked into Sunshine City with Li Yang and Lin Xixi in order.

The roof was opened, resembling a mechanical arm folding up, revealing a large open space at the center. Light shone from above, brightening the entire structure.

"Wow, this place is amazing, no need for lighting at all."

"The guide on the sightseeing car said that on rainy days, the glass roof can be raised, making it bright inside while being able to watch the rain."

"It’s so high, giving a feeling of spaciousness and vastness."

The group walked while looking around, chattering away with mouths agape, as if entering a city for the first time.

"Look at the center, look at the center!" Li Yang shielded his eyes and looked towards the center position, "There’s a dining table over there!"

Mu Qiu stood on tiptoe, shielding the light and looking in the direction Li Yang pointed to.

Indeed, there was a dining table, with plates, wine glasses, and roses set neatly on two long tables. Upon getting closer, the shine of the cutlery reflecting light became visible.

Aside from it, there was a seat on either side of the dining table, aligned together, facing an LED screen hanging on the wall. The screen was broadcasting a live stream of the current show.

"It’s actually a live broadcast of our show?? Watching ourselves?"

"Are we watching ourselves being on a show while we’re on the show?"

"I saw the director’s computer playing the live stream during the first episode! I’m suspicious he was so into watching the stream that he handed me a random task card without even caring."

"So, is this linked to the director’s computer? Where’s the computer, I’m going to steal it."

Everyone started gathering around the dining table, all looking up at the LED broadcasting the live stream. Mu Qiu even waved towards it, and consequently, she waved on the screen.

Li Yang teased her: "You’re like a kid seeing a mirror for the first time."

"A twenty-two-year-old kid isn’t allowed?"

"Shouldn’t a twenty-two-year-old be called a grown-up kid?"

"...Shut up, just shut up."

Li Yang was forced into silence innocently, as he truly just wanted to correct her, with no other intent.

Standing in the front, Guan Yu remembered something and pointed at the screen in shock, asking the camera: "Are we going to be publicly shamed, seeing who performed poorly or got punished the most?"

"Isn’t that all you, Sister Guan Yu?"

"Do you need to make a summary? What do you gain from bullying a pitiful soul with limited days?"

Li Yang seriously pondered: "Happiness?"

"I don’t know if you’ll gain happiness, but I might end your life, so you better be careful."

Li Yang: "..."

After watching themselves on the big screen for a while, their necks grew tired, and the director found a perfect cross-legged spot, telling them to group up and find a seat.

"This is the third game, which, according to feedback from our young accompanying directors, combines elements of Pictionary, rainbow farts, and compliment sessions. You’re sure to love it."

Li Yang: "Is it fun?"

Shu Ran: "Is it as exciting as the earlier game?"

Guan Yu: "Can we change expressions?"

Mu Qiu felt she needed to keep up with the pace, so she added: "Can we eat now?"

The three who asked questions turned their heads and squinted at her, then slowly gave a thumbs up.

"You’ve hit the main point. We give you a thumbs up."

The director no longer wanted to humor their multi-person act and straightforwardly said: "The game is called ’You Start, I Guess.’ The rules are as follows: the screen will show some clips edited previously and just now, along with live comments sent by viewers."

"From the comments, we’ll highlight some for everyone to play Pictionary. Each round, a member from each group will compete with another group, deciding the hint and guessing roles with rock-paper-scissors."

"The hint giver provides limited clues based on the comment content, and the guesser supplements the comment content using the hints and their own ideas. The closer they get, the more points they score, with the group guessing the most comments in three minutes winning."

"So, it’s Pictionary; where are the rainbow farts and compliments? Are the directors really young people?"

Director: "Are you questioning the directors’ age?"

"...I wouldn’t dare."

"It’s probably because a lot of the selected comments contain rainbow farts, right?"

Mu Qiu thought thoroughly about the rule and raised her hand with a question.

"Director, when you said two members from each group compete, does that mean the hint giver and the guesser aren’t from the same team?"

"Correct, for example, if you are the hint giver, then the contestant guessing is from another group."

Shu Ran raised her hand: "Are the comments preselected or live?"

"Live, with some picking of easier ones for the game." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Cheng Zhirang: "Do we guess a phrase? Or individual words?"

"A phrase."

"Are they directly selected or screened?"

"Reviewed."
