I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 152: In My Dreams, I’m the Battle-Hardened Love Queen
Since Mu Qiu took the initiative with such a "sorrowful" topic, Guan Yu and Li Yang were left with nothing to retort to besides laughter, let alone think of something to ask.
So Mu Qiu passed this round.
Guan Yu held her head that almost fell off from laughter and gave an eight-word comment—"You’re the most outrageous of us all."
"I can already imagine the netizens’ reactions, there’s probably a stream of hahahaha passing by the director’s computer screen now."
The director looked at his computer and gave her a definite answer: "Indeed."
There were even subscriber-style hahahas, filling the entire screen with that one word in various forms.
Mu Qiu left the stage like a victor, waving her sleeve without taking a single cloud away.
"It’s just an idea, don’t take it seriously."
Qi Feng asked her, "Are all authors this imaginative?"
"Pretty much, how would you write fiction without imagination? You can’t tell readers that I’ve never been in love so my characters must stay single, right?"
"...Makes sense."
Lin Xixi found it curious and leaned over to ask her: "So in your novels, are all the love stories of the protagonists imagined by you? The book the show referenced, did you also make that up?"
Mu Qiu nodded and joked: "Otherwise, why would I need so much sleep? Closing my eyes is a task; today, I’m imagining what kind of handsome guy I’ll learn to date, tomorrow, I’ll imagine who might interfere with our relationship, causing us to break up and make up, composing an epic song of love and hate."
Guan Yu: "Do you regularly visit a psychologist?"
"...I might have to after today."
Everyone laughed again.
After two successful cases in a row, everyone felt they found a method and gained much confidence.
Shu Ran analyzed: "I think the key is to come up with a storyline that corners Guan Yu and Li Yang, leaving them speechless and unable to ask questions, because they might just crack up asking—Guan Yu is particularly funny too."
Shi Yuhuai asked her: "Everyone knows the principle, but what kind of storyline should we use?"
Shu Ran: "...Wouldn’t I have said it if I knew?!"
She got so frustrated that she had no desire to perform.
Seeing her not react, Shi Yuhuai withdrew his gaze in disappointment and began to ponder by himself.
Most people only had one chance left and didn’t want to go first to try.
At this time, Qi Feng stood out; he still had two chances, and his squinty-eyed smile looked agreeable, he wanted to step out in front at such a moment to capture the attention of the cameras.
No matter if the people present understood his motives for this, they all applauded him.
As soon as Qi Feng sat down in front of Guan Yu and Li Yang, he gave Li Yang an ambiguous smile with a tilted eye, nodded toward Guan Yu, and then placed something on the table, sliding it over to Li Yang.
"I know you like her, see, as your brother, I’ve prepared everything for you, take it and confess, inside are plenty of beautifully worded phrases."
Li Yang rolled his eyes so hard they almost flipped, finally having someone use him as a performance prop, but unexpectedly it turned out to be such a plot.
However, after experiencing Mu Qiu’s outrageous plot shock, this level of plot was already not enough to surprise him.
He said ’ah’ and asked: "You helped me write a love letter to the person I like?"
Guan Yu took it over: "Is he the one lacking a brain or are you? Otherwise, it’s—"
She lay on the table, gazing affectionately at Qi Feng: "Actually, do you secretly have a crush on me?"
Qi Feng: "...I don’t. Actually, he likes you, but because you’re too outstanding to confess directly, he’s hesitated for a long time, so long that I couldn’t watch anymore."
For some reason, the storyline and dialogue he thought out so well weren’t hitting the mark when they got interrupted and spoken like this.
He almost couldn’t maintain the expression himself.
After hearing what Qi Feng said, Guan Yu turned and directly asked Li Yang: "So, you secretly like me?"
"If that’s the case, there are many that I secretly like."
"But you wrote me a love letter, and the envelope is pink, I can even smell a sweet scent."
"It doesn’t smell at all? I didn’t smell anything."
"...Straight man." Guan Yu gave a fake smile, "Then what I smell might be the sweet scent of a secret crush."
Li Yang: "...Ugh."
"Ssss—"
A puff of white smoke burst from Qi Feng’s waist with a loud hiss, making all three of them jump.
Qi Feng shut his eyes tightly, feeling deeply regretful. He intended to copy Shi Yuhuai and introduce half-way then quietly leave.
However, he was pulled back by the ready and starving, increasingly irrational Guan Yu.
"No, you’re not leaving. Finish the introduction!"
The situation had drifted from Qi Feng’s expectations, and he was forced to stay and continue introducing the love letter.
Guan Yu kindly prompted him: "We’re not really here to buy a product, just listen to your introduction and understand the story behind it."
Qi Feng: "Then I’ll say it directly, he secretly likes you and is preparing to write you a love letter, but because his writing skills aren’t good, he asked me to ghostwrite it!"
Li Yang: "Actually, my writing is decent; I often got 45 points in high school language essays."
"..."
Guan Yu looked at Qi Feng with a suddenly very satisfied smile, as if deeply immersed in some wonderful fantasy.
"I knew it, the whole world secretly likes me, I’m the heartthrob with long dense hair, a pretty face, and a good figure, walk down the street and you’ll take one look at me and get so entranced you can’t snap out...I dream about this even in my sleep."
Li Yang: "I’m tired of telling you you’re shameless."
"Ssss—"
Qi Feng closed his eyes in despair.
He wasn’t sure if this despair came from the fact that he was down to zero, or was just speechless at Guan Yu.
Anyway, he couldn’t uphold that squinty eye expression anymore.
The director lifted a small megaphone: "Yellow Team, Qi Feng is down to zero."
Guan Yu’s eyes widened suddenly.
"Wait a minute! He’s on our team?!"
Qi Feng: You just realized?
Guan Yu sat back down obediently, looking sheepish at both Qi Feng and Cheng Zhirang beside him, "Uh, sorry, got too caught in the act, thought I was with Li Yang’s group."
Cheng Zhirang shook his head: "It’s alright."
He swept his gaze over everyone present and surprised them by directly announcing the punishable attempts left for each team.
"Now Blue Team has four tries left, Lin Xixi one, Mu Qiu three. Red Team has three left, Shi Yuhuai, Shu Ran, Duan Pinyuan each one. Shouldn’t Red Team go? Shu Ran?"
He analyzed and smiled gently while calling someone up.
Shu Ran shrank back.
"Brother Cheng, don’t look at me, I haven’t figured it out yet!"
Shi Yuhuai also instinctively backed away, leaving only Duan Pinyuan from Red Team blankly standing there.
Cheng Zhirang’s smile deepened: "Then why doesn’t Pinyuan go first?"
Duan Pinyuan: "...Alright."
He had just sat down with his things when Guan Yu pretended to roll up her sleeves: "You’re from the Red Team, right? You’re done."
"...Won’t you at least listen to my introduction?"
"You say, if you can come down safely, it’s because Li Yang’s useless."
Li Yang: "???"
