Chapter 205 The Vicious Female Supporting Character in the Mind-Reading Novel 15
The little tricks these young couples play are so sweet!
Watching them think they've hidden it so well, secretly pulling strings, I feel even more excited than watching them openly display their affection.
[How about we don't vote for President Song and Su Su? Let them think no one has found out, and see what tricks they can still pull off in secret.]
[But the guests have phones, and they'll definitely check online when they have free time. Even if we don't vote for them, they'll know we've noticed their little tricks, and they'll be more careful to keep their distance afterwards. We don't want to miss out on all the sweet moments.]
[Hey production crew! Quick! Take all the guests' phones!]
Originally, it was just the wedding procession shouting for the production team to confiscate their phones, but other viewers found it amusing that the guests were completely unaware of what was happening online, didn't even realize they'd been exposed, and continued to act so earnestly.
So they joined in the fun and asked the production team to collect the guests' phones.
Then the production crew actually went.
The guests had just finished their meal when the production crew came in. They thought they were there to announce something, but it turned out they were there to collect the phones.
The guests were caught off guard and were somewhat unwilling.
"Director, this won't do! We can't live without a cell phone!"
The staff member said with a smile, "The director said that if you hand over your phones, you can have barbecue tomorrow night. If you don't, all your food will be taken away immediately, including snacks. Not a single grain of rice can be left."
The guests had just finished eating and weren't really craving barbecue, but it was going too far for the staff to say they were taking away all the food they brought.
They didn't leave a single grain of rice. What will they eat for dinner?
The guests couldn't help but call out to their sponsor, "President Song..."
However, they were too late; Yun Qing had already handed over the phone.
So Song Yanlin informed Lu Zhou and handed over his phone as well.
Guests: ...Our sponsors are unreliable!
[Hahaha, Su Su is such a foodie! Food is more important than her phone. She handed it over so quickly. No wonder she prepared such a big box of ingredients.]
[SuSu's eating is so delicious, it made me hungry just watching her. I ordered a ton of takeout while I'm on a diet, all my efforts have been wasted!]
[President Song is simply following his wife's lead; if Su Su makes the offer, he'll follow suit, completely ignoring how unwilling the other guests may be!]
Wait a minute, you lady in front, aren't you a fan of Sister Qi Fei?
[Ahem... I'll just give a slight nod as a sign of politeness; Sister Fei also really likes Su Su.]
After handing over her phone, Meng Leyi felt a little worried. She knew that she hadn't performed well today and had caused Fang Xihe and Qi Fei to get injured. Her fans would definitely have something to say about it.
She had planned to check online updates when she had some free time, but the production crew suddenly confiscated her phone.
This made her feel very uncertain.
Li Mengzhi, a female guest who is not a contestant, also felt anxious.
Meng Leyi was able to manage her facial expressions well; no matter how worried she was inside, it wasn't showing on her face.
But Li Mengzhi is someone whose emotions are clearly not right, which is obvious to the audience at a glance.
However, most viewers expressed their understanding. As an ordinary person appearing on a show for the first time, especially with so many celebrities, it's understandable that she would worry about her performance and feel uneasy about not knowing how the audience would perceive her.
Chen Lei watched as the live streamer collected the phones, patted her forehead, and sighed helplessly.
She had originally planned to call Yun Qing later and tell her to stay away from Fei Xiao and Li Mengzhi.
Meng Leyi did not perform well this time. Most importantly, her fans are so unreasonable that most viewers are starting to get annoyed with her.
The reason things have developed this way is partly due to Meng Leyi and her fans, but it is also inseparable from the deliberate guidance of others.
Meng Leyi's agent doesn't know who did it, but Chen Lei has more connections and is more capable. She has already found out that it was Fei Xiao's team that was behind it.
Fei Xiao and Li Mengzhi are a real couple, and they participated in this variety show to take the opportunity to officially announce their relationship.
However, Li Mengzhi is too ordinary. She is pretty, but not good-looking enough to make the audience's values follow her appearance. She doesn't have anything particularly outstanding in other aspects either.
Fei Xiaogang has just successfully transitioned from a top idol to a mainstream celebrity, and it's hard to say whether his fans can accept that he has a girlfriend. If they find out that his girlfriend is such an ordinary person as Li Mengzhi, they will definitely cause a scene.
Chen Lei originally thought that their participation in the variety show was just a way to test the waters step by step and gradually get the fans to accept them.
But now it seems they want to elevate Li Mengzhi by stepping on the other female guests, thereby reducing fans' doubts about her.
Meng Leyi simply happened to become a stepping stone.
Meng Leyi injured other guests, but Li Mengzhi didn't do anything wrong.
Meng Leyi was flustered while cooking, but Li Mengzhi handled it with ease.
Furthermore, because Meng Leyi's fans were too domineering and unreasonable, the audience who originally said that Li Mengzhi, an ordinary person, was not good enough for any of the male guests turned around and started cursing Meng Leyi's fans.
In later episodes, viewers, naturally annoyed, will first point out Meng Leyi's mistakes, and will be much less hostile towards Li Mengzhi.
Chen Lei was worried that Yun Qing would also become someone else's stepping stone.
So far, Yun Qing seems to be doing quite well, and her pairing with President Song is also very popular.
She just wanted her to stay obedient, follow President Song, and not cause any trouble.
Who knew the production crew would suddenly confiscate the phone?
Fortunately, with President Song keeping an eye on things, Yun Qing shouldn't encounter any major problems.
President Song is quite reliable.
Oh... I'll help Yun Qing turn the table around, but letting her eat whatever she wants doesn't count!
She kept telling Yun Qing to eat less, did she have it easy? In the end, the big boss just spoiled and indulged her. Wait until she grows up to be a big fatso, then let's see if she can still lift one arm!
The guests' phones were taken away, and there were no tasks assigned for the day, so after washing the dishes, they were somewhat idle.
Fei Xiao suddenly suggested, "How about we play Truth or Dare?"
Fang Xihe looked at him suspiciously, "You're not an undercover agent sent by the audience, are you?"
When they participate in a show like this, playing truth or dare, they're bound to bring up relationship issues. The more information they reveal, the easier it will be for the audience to guess.
Qi Fei squinted and said, "It's also possible that they want others to be voted out by the audience first."
The couples who are guessed by the audience first receive the heaviest punishments. If others are voted out first, the punishment for those who are voted out later is much lighter!
Xiao Nan chuckled and said, "Let's not end up hurting ourselves as much as the enemy."
Since there was nothing else to do, no one objected to playing a little game.
A group of people sat around a coffee table, some on the sofa and some on the carpet.
Fei Xiao eagerly grabbed an empty beverage bottle from lunch and said, "Let's use this."
As he spoke, he spun the bottle, hoping it would land on Li Mengzhi, but fate had other plans, and it landed on Meng Leyi instead.
Meng Leyi chose to answer truthfully.
Fei Xiao asked a simple question that wouldn't seem difficult at all: "Le Yi, are you and Yun Qing best friends?"
Without hesitation, Meng Leyi replied, "Yes."
【Hmm...best friend?】
[If they were just ordinary friends, that would be one thing, but if they were best friends, how could Meng Leyi not know that Yun Qing had never met Director Min when she was filming his movie?]
It's hard to imagine that Meng Leyi considers Su Yunqing a close friend, given how her fans are smearing her like that!
Meng Leyi's fans couldn't help but say:
We were unaware of this before and misunderstood Su Yunqing. Shall we apologize to her?
Since Yi Yi says she and Su Yunqing are best friends, she must be sincere. Yi Yi is very innocent, so please don't speculate too much!
Audience: ...Oh right, right! The most innocent white lotus!
When it was Meng Leyi's turn to spin the bottle, it landed directly on Song Yanlin, and she couldn't help but feel a secret joy in her heart.
Song Yanlin also chose to answer truthfully.
Meng Leyi thought for a moment, then asked carefully, "What kind of girl does President Song like?"
Song Yanlin didn't even lift his eyelids, and said casually, "That's my girlfriend."
The other guests couldn't help but glance at him again.
Although he didn't reveal who his girlfriend was, this was a clear indication to the audience that he and his girlfriend were a real couple.
Are you really that reckless?
【Ah ...
[Wow~~ He's willing to risk exposing himself to confess his love to his girlfriend, who's he trying to seduce?!]
[The romance couple is really, really real!]
