Chapter 35 Please teach me, my husband.
The square was large, and there were many cameras flying around. The program crew's cameras blended in with the group of small balls without standing out.
There were no other guests in sight, but Wen Shumu still tightly covered the small round piece stuck to his right shoulder to prevent it from getting wet.
Local residents and tourists alike knew that they were filming a program here for the past two days. Even though the two wore goggles to cover their faces, their outstanding presence in the crowd still made them recognized by many people present, who glanced in that direction while playing in the water.
But they can't be relied upon.
Most people were too afraid to come over. This was an Imperial Marshal, surrounded by countless bodyguards. If they went over and were mistaken for criminals, they would be finished.
A small number of the bolder ones who couldn't get through were stopped by guards in plain clothes.
Wen Shumu also noticed that a circular open space with a radius of about two meters appeared around him and Ling Suyu.
They certainly won't get jostled, but that means they won't be able to blend into the crowd. If any guests come over, they'll be spotted immediately.
"Do you want to win?" Ling Suyu suddenly asked.
"think!"
2000 credits!
Although the director hadn't said what to do with the remaining credits after the trip to Fumeng Star, Wen Shumu's intuition told him that it was better to be prepared, and the more funds the better.
Ling Suyu glanced eastward, then turned around without making a sound, shielding Wen Shumu with his back and protecting him as they walked in the opposite direction.
Hidden in a thicket to the east, Chu Zhao and Ludwig, who were waiting for the Marshal and his wife to arrive so they could launch a sneak attack, were speechless.
Ludwig jumped to his feet. He was a huge guy, and he'd already been cooped up here for ages—it was frustrating enough. "Seriously? We were spotted even from this far away?"
"I told you long ago that's Ling Suyu. It's normal to be discovered. To be precise, it would be abnormal if we weren't discovered. Why don't we look for Ye Jingxi or Jiang Hong?" Chu Zhao knelt on one knee, and even while ambushing someone, she didn't forget to strike an extremely elegant pose in front of the camera.
Unlike the Marshal and his wife, who were escorted and cleared the area, the Jiang brothers took a long time to walk from the gate to the square. Along the way, many people wanted to take photos with the two big stars, but Jiang Hong refused them all, citing that he was recording a program.
Even so, it still took them a lot of time.
After finally getting into the square, someone came up to ask for a photo. Jiang Hong politely declined and then pricked up his ears, looking around warily: "Brother, we're too late. We need to be careful of the other guests."
"Let's walk along the side then, there are fewer people there, making it easier to observe," Jiang Xun thought for a moment and finally made a serious suggestion.
Jiang Hong thought it made sense, so she pulled her brother toward the edge of the square.
"Sizzle—"
Just as he reached the edge, a jet of water came straight at him. Jiang Hong had no way to avoid it, and the small round piece on his right shoulder was accurately hit and began to change color.
Jiang Hong: "..."
He stared at the dense thicket in front of him, a look of astonishment on his face.
Is that all you want to win?! You're even lying in wait here trying to ambush us!
Jiang Hong sighed, "I'm out. I'm counting on you, bro."
As he spoke, he turned his head and saw Jiang Xun raise a water gun and spray water at his own chest.
This action nearly made Jiang Hong faint with anger.
Ludwig, who had launched the sneak attack, was also stunned and silently put down the water gun he had aimed at Jiang Xun.
Chu Zhao clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful."
Hahahaha!
I'm going to be laughed to death by Xun Ge sooner or later.
[So, the younger brother committed suicide after being eliminated, right?]
[I strongly suspect that Xun Ge deliberately gave this idea to end the game quickly.]
[I don't think Xun-ge is smart enough to realize someone was ambushing him there. He probably genuinely wanted Jiang Hong to have more time to play, but things backfired.]
Today he also tested the waters of making Hongbao angry.
Just as Wen Shumu was led by Ling Suyu to a giant tree on the west side, a pleasant AI female voice came through the earphone in his right ear:
"Attention all guests, Jiang Hong and Jiang Xun have been eliminated."
Wen Shumu exclaimed in surprise, "So fast?!"
"If they came from the East Gate or the North Gate, they must have run into Chuzhao and Ludwig."
Ling Suyu told Wen Shumu about the two men who were hiding in the bushes to the northeast.
"Wow, I didn't even notice! How did you find out?"
"His blonde hair is so eye-catching."
For Ling Suyu, the golden retriever mixed in with the green was a perfect target.
He leaned against a tree, casually holding a water gun in one hand, and said nonchalantly, "Let's wait here for a bit."
Wen Shumu pondered for a moment and said, "We haven't seen Mr. Wen and Dr. Ye yet. Did we come to the west because this place might be the closest to them?"
The fact that Chu Zhao was able to find the disguise so quickly means that they entered through either the east or north gate. The Jiang brothers were the first to be eliminated, so they must have entered through one of those two gates as well.
He and his brother came from the South Gate, which leaves only the West Gate. Wen Wei and Ye Jingxi most likely came from the West Gate.
A smile appeared in Ling Suyu's eyes.
"That's right, waiting for the rabbit to run into the tree stump."
Wen Shumu immediately stared intently at the exit of the small path to the west, raising his water gun as he waited for his target to appear.
Wen Wei was still grinning foolishly at this moment.
After entering the gate, the flowers were in full bloom, a riot of colors. He and Ye Jingxi were engrossed in taking couple selfies, completely unaware of the "danger" lurking on the road.
Wen Shumu asked nervously, "Will we each be responsible for one?"
Ling Suyu checked the water gun's range again in the distance: "Okay, you choose one."
With him backing him up, Xiao Mu can play however he wants.
After a while, not receiving a reply from Wen Shumu, Ling Suyu looked up.
The owner of those light brown, glass-bead-like eyes smiled and leaned closer, taking his arm and whispering:
"I choose this one."
A buzzing sound came from my head, as if my body's operating program had malfunctioned, turning into a jumble of gibberish, and I froze completely.
"Why...did you choose me?"
Ling Suyu heard the dry sound he squeezed out of his throat.
Wen Shumu said, "I've never handled a gun before, and I don't even know how to aim properly, let alone hit such a small round piece."
"So, I'll have to trouble—" Wen Shumu glanced at a spherical camera out of the corner of her eye and immediately changed her words, "I'll have to trouble my husband to teach me."
A dark light flashed in Ling Suyu's icy blue eyes as he silently stepped forward and stood behind Wen Shumu.

Finally standing on the light gray paving stones of the square, Wen Wei picked up two water guns, one in her left hand and one in her right, ready to unleash a torrent of water.
The owner of the water gun in his left hand was enthusiastically massaging his shoulders.
Ye Jingxi said, "Thank you for your hard work, baby."
On his way here, he struggled to try again, but his aim was not even as good as Wen Wei's left hand, so he decisively handed over the water gun.
Wen Wei gave a helpless yet inexplicably indulgent smile: "Take good care of yourself."
Ye Jingxi smiled, turned around gracefully, and bumped into a jet of water that hit the small round piece with great precision, causing him to take a few steps back.
Wen Wei looked in astonishment toward the direction from which the water jet came, and reflexively picked up the water gun to retaliate. The water jet she fired was actually dispersed in mid-air by another water jet with tremendous force.
Behind the tree, Wen Shumu stared at the scope of the water gun, her cheeks slightly flushed.
His left hand was enveloped by a larger hand, which lifted the gun along with him. His right hand, which was on the trigger, was covered by a rougher finger. A warmth that did not belong to him came from his back.
The Alpha's breath brushed against his ear, almost imperceptibly, and felt slightly hot.
Just now, Ling Suyu pulled the trigger with him.
Ye Jingxi is out.
