I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 255: Brother Huai: Grand Opening Extravaganza
After the performance to cheer everyone up, the director reluctantly announced that Guan Yu had completed the task.
After all, the task was just a date, and it didn’t require the date to be successful.
The six people lined up again, and the director picked up his beloved little loudspeaker and announced the final segment.
"Winner of this episode’s game: Shi Yuhuai. Other participants are considered to have lost and will face punishment soon, the form of which will be revealed later. Now let’s have our staff present Brother Huai with the medal."
Suddenly, several staff members dressed in black suits and wearing white gloves rushed in at the entrance of the academy, full of vigor, carrying a bundle of red items under their arms.
As soon as they came in, they pushed everyone forward, stood in front of them with their backs to the camera.
The sudden action startled Mu Qiu, who quickly took two steps back.
"What’s going on?"
Cheng Zhirang reached out to protect from behind, and seeing that there was no chance of her falling, he withdrew his hand and said, "Most likely, they’re laying a red carpet."
"..."
Indeed, they were laying a red carpet.
Two hefty men laid down a bundle of red carpet onto the empty space in front of them, giving it a good shake until it formed a neat and tidy line. Then, another hefty man grabbed a handful of white items from his pocket and tossed them into the sky.
White petals fluttered down with the wind, decorating the red carpet.
The six heads followed the petals in unison, lifted them, and lowered them.
... They even prepared petals???
Excuse me, is this a wedding scene?
The key point is that the way this hefty man tossed the petals was way too solemn and serious, and he left immediately after.
The last two men who took over the task then brought over two flower baskets from behind the staffs at the very edge.
Two flower baskets...
Flower baskets...
Mu Qiu: She was wrong, this isn’t a wedding scene; it’s clearly a grand opening for a business.
She looked up with a subtle expression at the director, "Such a grand award ceremony, even brought over flower baskets usually used for openings."
Guan Yu just stared at the flower basket, her laughter grew increasingly crazed: "Hahahahaha! This is to hold a commendation conference for Brother Huai?!"
Shu Ran tried to hold back her laughter and joined in on the commotion: "Brother Huai, go ahead, it’s the red carpet show, you can walk the whole way from one end to the other."
Shi Yuhuai stared at the whole flamboyant red carpet and took a step back.
His entire body expressed his refusal.
But he was eventually forced onto it.
Mu Qiu half-squatted in front of the red carpet with a tablet, a group of people standing behind her, staring at Shi Yuhuai’s stiff posture on the tablet screen.
Guan Yu looked up to instruct him: "Brother Huai, smile, the staff is about to present your award!"
Cheng Zhirang lightly pressed his fingertip against his nose, holding back a smile and said: "Wearing traditional costume on the red carpet, with flower baskets beside, it really looks like a ceremony for the launch of a costume drama."
Though no one at a launch ceremony is as stiff as Shi Yuhuai is now, like a stone.
The award presenter at the red carpet’s end was already walking over very solemnly and seriously, congratulating Shi Yuhuai as he arrived.
"Congratulations to this kind-hearted assassin for winning MVP of this episode’s game!"
Shi Yuhuai: "......Thank you."
The presenter took out a lapel pin with a dark red gemstone from the tray and pinned it onto Shi Yuhuai’s double-layered crossover collar, then formally handed him a bright red MVP armband.
"Please wear the MVP symbol for this episode!"
"Can I choose not to wear it?"
"No, you can’t."
"..." Shi Yuhuai closed his eyes, allowing the staff to pin the red armband on him.
In front, the group of people taking pictures with the tablet burst into laughter again.
"Hahahahaha, Brother Huai, open your eyes!"
"Turning from an assassin into a guard at the Forbidden Palace, hahahahaha!"
"Brother Huai, turn around! I’ll get a different angle for you!"
"Strike a pose! Brother Huai, this is your expertise! Show your charm like on the runway!"
"Hahahahaha! Oh my gosh, I’ve seen mismatches, but never like this!"
The traditional costume assassin had to wear the lapel pin and red armband, alternating between noble flair and gatekeeper demeanor, then stood on the business opening red carpet.
It turns out, even the most handsome runway king can be "ruined."
The staff then withdrew, and Mu Qiu took several photos of Shi Yuhuai with her tablet.
No worries about a stationary model; a competent photographer can find angles all around.
She kept changing places, striving to capture handsome shots from various angles.
Shi Yuhuai just stood stiffly on the red carpet, his eyes subconsciously following the camera.
Li Yang squatted in front, still chuckling, "After this award ceremony, will Brother Huai’s career be affected?"
Guan Yu immediately shook her head, seriously saying: "Definitely not! Believe in Brother Huai, after this encounter, he’ll have a deeper love and understanding of fashion shows."
Shu Ran folded her arms: "Or maybe he won’t love it anymore."
"Hahahahahahaha!"
"Hahahahahaha that line is so unconventional on Brother Huai!"
Mu Qiu finally finished taking enough photos, satisfied, she returned to the group, "Brother Huai, I’ll send you the photos when we get back! Every angle you can imagine!"
Guan Yu placed a hand on her shoulder, laughing so hard her eyes squinted: "Brother Huai said he’d block you when we get back!"
Shi Yuhuai was indeed considering this.
For the first time, he was a bit worried that this episode might affect his career.
The awards had been given, the photos shot, and the director asked everyone to gather on the red carpet.
"While everyone is still looking bright and shiny, let’s take a group photo."
Mu Qiu paused as she collected the tablet, looking up at the camera: "...Does that mean we won’t look so shiny after the punishment?"
"What kind of punishment, can you reveal a little before the photo?" Guan Yu asked as she walked over.
Director: "No, I can’t."
"...Your ruthlessness ruins my lot of tenderness."
The director ignored her comment entirely, quickly directing everyone to find their positions.
Of course, Shi Yuhuai was the center position, Cheng Zhirang and Li Yang stood on either side behind him, forming a half-circle with the three female guests in the middle and front.
Shu Ran stood in the middle of the half-circle, almost directly behind Shi Yuhuai. Mu Qiu was consciously pushed to stand in front of Cheng Zhirang, while Guan Yu stayed beside Li Yang.
Mu Qiu was very satisfied with this kind of logical behavior from everyone, she ran to stand in front of Cheng Zhirang.
Because it was a group photo, the six people stood closer together, and Mu Qiu could almost feel the warmth and faint scent from the person behind her.
This slowly infiltrating warmth and scent, probably describes one aspect of the ambiguous relationship between grown men and women.
She lowered her head and smiled a little, and as the photographer shouted to look at the camera, she lifted her head and revealed an exceptionally bright and sunny smile.
Click.
Their fourth episode’s bright and shiny appearance was captured in the lens, each person’s smile full-hearted and genuine.
After the group photo, the director hurried them off the red carpet, and the staff rapidly collected the red carpet and flower baskets.
This was practically like a scumbag running off with the property.
