Chapter 156 A New Wife-Stalking Maniac Has Appeared
Chu Zhao's heart suddenly started racing: "What punishment?"
Ke Mo smiled slightly: "You'll know tomorrow."
"Next, I will announce the remaining credits for your two groups." His gaze swept over the two remaining groups that had not yet been selected.
Jiang Hong clenched his fists nervously.
He and Jiang Xun should have been ranked second in credit points, but his brother spent a lot of money to fulfill the children's wishes on Flora Star, so they are likely to be at the bottom.
Ludwig gave a knowing smile, as if he was quite looking forward to the specifics of the "punishment."
Jiang Xun, on the other hand, seemed indifferent. Anyway, the production team couldn't really do anything to them. He wasn't even afraid of sleeping on the streets, so he was fearless.
"Jiang Xun and Jiang Hong's group has 2760 credits left." Ke Mo looked at the teleprompter. "Chu Zhao and Ludwig's group has 2..."
Chu Zhao took a deep breath and stared wide-eyed at the director.
At this moment, Ludwig was still looking at Chuzhao, showing no sense of urgency whatsoever.
He was even amused by Chu Zhao's nervous expression.
Don't love Ludwig too much.
A new wife-stalking maniac has appeared, hahaha!
[Let me interpret Ludwig's inner thoughts: My wife's eyes are wide open like a kitten's, so cute.]
"2710 credits."
Chu Zhao's wide eyes instantly turned into dead fish eyes.
Seeing Chu Zhao's change of expression, Ludwig couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Chu Zhao looked at him in shock, seemingly wondering what was wrong with this person, how could he be so happy even though he was at the bottom?
Komo put down the cue cards and said, "We'll meet at 7 a.m. tomorrow and set off by flying vehicle to Mount Hill."
Mount Hill is not in the main city of Anjiang Star; it's quite far away. The hovercar would take a whole day to drive there, so it's better to just take a flying vehicle.
The production team checked the weather forecast in advance, and the next few days will be sunny, so there's no need to worry about not being able to fly.
"So that means we're only staying here for one night?" Jiang Hong asked.
He quite liked his room; it was spacious and luxurious, a typical imperial aristocratic style.
And this is a castle! It's nothing like a regular hotel!
Ke Mo sensed his thoughts, but still had to follow the schedule, so he could only truthfully say, "Yes, everyone remember to set your alarms, don't oversleep."
Jiang Hong's expression revealed a hint of regret.
Seeing this, Wen Shumu nudged his arm: "You're welcome to come and play anytime in the future."
"Brother Mumu—" Upon hearing this, Jiang Hong's eyes lit up and she reached out to wrap her arms around his shoulders. "You're so kind."
Wen Shumu wasn't much older than Jiang Hong, but he unconsciously wanted to treat him like a child.
A soft cough came from Ling Suyu's ear.
Jiang Hong immediately knew when to stop, released Wen Shumu, and pulled Jiang Xun back to their room to rest.
Ling Suyu casually put his arm around Wen Shumu's shoulder, his hand landing precisely where Jiang Hong had just wrapped his arm around Wen Shumu.
"Let's go too."
Wen Shumu glanced at the hand resting on his shoulder, a smile appearing in his eyes.
Once they reached the empty corridor, he slowly said, "Brother, were you jealous just now? But Jiang Hong is also an Omega."
Ling Suyu pursed his thin lips slightly, seemingly a little embarrassed, but still admitted frankly, "I couldn't help it."
Wen Shumu smiled and said, "I understand, because I feel the same way about you."
His possessiveness is probably far greater than Alpha imagines.
He wanted Ling Suyu to only look at him and only touch him.
Even in the many nights after Ling Suyu disappeared, he wondered if he should have hidden Ling Suyu away long ago, in a place only he knew, so that the responsibilities and missions that required Ling Suyu to sacrifice himself would no longer have anyone to entangle him with.
Wen Shumu lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes casting small fan-like shadows in the warm light of the corridor.
But that's just wishful thinking.
He loves Ling Suyu, so he would never do anything to cause Ling Suyu distress or sadness.
I would never hurt my lover in the name of love.

At 7:00 a.m., everyone gathered on time and boarded a private aircraft to go to Mount Hill.
Wen Shumu had a memory of this place name. When his grandfather was still alive, he regarded this place as an important project for Anjiangxing to develop tourism, and he invested a lot of money to build a resort.
Hill Snow Mountain is one of the few resorts that have recently reopened.
When leaving the castle, Wen Shumu thought Allison would come along, but he only saw everyone to the door and then stopped.
Allison beamed with joy, and Wen Shumu asked, "Is there some good news?"
"Hehe, my wife is coming today." Allison rubbed his nose. "He happens to be available recently, so I asked him to take charge of the interior design of the castle."
Wen Shumu remembered the architectural master that Xiao Jin had mentioned and said with a smile, "That's great, thank you for your help. It's just a pity that we can't meet him."
Allison pondered for a moment and said, "Let's finalize a preliminary plan in the next couple of days. If time allows, I'll also take him to the snow-capped mountains."
"Okay, I look forward to seeing you there." Wen Shumu waved to him, then turned and boarded the aircraft.
Located in the northeast of Anjiang Star, the Hill Snow Mountain stretches endlessly through the vast sea of clouds, layer upon layer, like a pure white painting given by nature, waiting for people to paint it with vibrant colors.
At the foot of the snow-capped mountain lies a forest, with snowballs still clinging to the branches and leaves. The verdant embellishment makes this pure white world less monotonous.
The Hill Snow Mountain Resort is located here.
The resort is actually quite well-equipped, with hotels of all price ranges, a large ski resort, a virtual snow mountain hunting ground, natural hot springs, museums, theaters, and other cultural venues. Unfortunately, it has been idle for too long and has only just reopened, with very few guests.
After the aircraft landed, the guests boarded hovercars and arrived at their hotel around noon.
This hotel is only two stories high, with a brick and tile structure. The dark brown triangular roof is covered with a layer of snow. Standing at the main entrance of the hotel, you can see the faint snow-capped mountain range and the endless forest behind the building.
Rather than a hotel, its cozy decor makes it feel more like a guesthouse.
This hotel is indeed run by local people.
The program chose this location because those high-end hotels have not yet reopened. Many people had been scammed by Wen Bin and have a bad impression of Anjiangxing. Some senior executives of the group would rather abandon the hotel facilities built with hundreds of millions of credit points than come to Anjiangxing to suffer humiliation again.
However, through the live broadcast of "Love's Star Journey," some executives have begun to change their minds.
Upon seeing the hotel in its entirety, Jiang Xun's eyes lit up, and he was the first to enter, displaying great enthusiasm.
Jiang Hong chuckled and complained to Wen Wei, "My brother doesn't like those generic luxury hotels; he prefers to stay in places with local character."
Wen Wei, who also works in the arts, empathized deeply: "Me too."
The hotel owner, who also works at the front desk, is a chubby and kind-hearted uncle. When he sees them, his eyes crinkle into slits as he smiles and invites everyone to put their luggage aside and have a cup of hot tea to warm themselves up.
Everyone held a cup of hot tea and sat on the sofa near the fireplace in the hall. The flames burning in the fireplace constantly emitted a warm glow, which, together with the hot tea, dispelled the chill from the guests' bodies.
As soon as Wen Shumu put down his tea, Ling Suyu grabbed his hand.
His large hand gently stroked the back and palm of his hand, as if to make sure that his hand had warmed up completely.
Wen Shumu grabbed him with his backhand, their fingers interlocked, palms touching.
Ling Suyu looked down at their clasped hands and smiled faintly.
They were so engrossed in their own world that they didn't notice the glances exchanged around them. Jiang Xun even remarked while holding his tea, "This tea is really sweet."
[Hahaha, even Xun Ge (Brother Xun) was charmed by the Marshal and his wife's sweetness.]
[Tsk tsk, Marshal Ling couldn't wait to take his wife's hand as soon as he took off his gloves.]
[Just want to stick them on! Love to see them!]
After exchanging a few words with the hotel owner, Ke Mo returned to the guests and said, "Before checking in, we need to announce the punishment."
Chu Zhao immediately put down the tea in her hand, held her breath, and stared at him.
"Here's the thing, this hotel has a total of four suites, one of which has already been booked by other guests, so there are only three suites left. The rest are king rooms and twin rooms, but we have four groups of guests."
Komo looked apologetically at Chuzhao and Ludwig: "As the group with the fewest credits, you will have to choose between a king room and a twin room to stay in."
He explained, "The king-size room has a viewing platform and an open-air hot spring, while the twin room has a larger indoor area but no hot spring."
After a moment of contemplation, the two Alphas spoke at the same time, but gave completely different answers.
Ludwig: "Twin room."
Chu Zhao: "King-size bed room."
