I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!

Chapter 444 - 443: Vengeance for Old Grudges

Guan Yu was so angry she was almost foaming at the mouth.

Mu Qiu didn’t even need to think to know that Guan Yu’s expression must be quite colorful right now. She kindly comforted her:

"Sister Guan Yu, don’t be too upset. It really was just bad luck, plus this part is difficult to perform. You insisted on arranging me to sit behind you, but the show was still very considerate. They added 0.5 points for you, how..."

Guan Yu didn’t want to hear another word. She interrupted with an angry "aow aow" sound at Mu Qiu.

Mu Qiu was startled: "...Are you now unable to speak in human language? Director, should we release it?"

Director: "Guan Yu’s team, are you sure the game is completely over? Would you like to take it back?"

Everyone was stunned.

Sister Shu Ran couldn’t believe it: "We can still use it?!"

Jiang Lu: "Moving NPCs really have no rights."

Li Yang excitedly asked, "How many times can this feature be used in total?"

The director did not answer them, just asked Guan Yu and the other two: "Do you want to take it back? Return to any time in this round of the game, save the game, rewrite the ending, reach the peak of life."

Guan Yu: ...She was considering it until she heard the last phrase, which sounded like a trick to make her do something bad.

She hesitated for a moment, then pulled the sullen Shi Yuhuai and bewildered Wei Yi together, conversed in sign language, and "discussed" it thoroughly.

Finally, Wei Yi said, "We won’t use it."

The director didn’t give up: "Really not using it? Maybe it could revive the game, deduct points from the other two teams, and then you can pass on the correct information."

Such eagerness made it even more suspicious. Guan Yu squinted her eyes and firmly shook her head.

No taking it back, she resolved.

After all, the showrunners might be holding something back, like a penalty for using it more than twice, or it could only be used twice, and then they wouldn’t be able to use it for something else they might regret later.

Anyway, it’s nothing good.

With their firm stance, the director couldn’t say much more, and could only regretfully announce that this round of the game was over.

"The task of the first game for all three groups has ended, the control lock is lifted, now announcing the results..."

"Wait a minute!"

Finally, when the control lock was automatically released, Guan Yu shouted three words clearly and excitedly, her mouth trembling.

Director: "Does this guest have any opinions?"

Guan Yu: "Nothing much, just hoping the show will give us a chance to seek revenge and settle grudges—"

She said the last two words through gritted teeth, glaring at someone.

Mu Qiu felt a chill down her neck upon hearing this, hastily ripped off the red armband in front of her eyes, seized the moment, and dashed off, quite instinctively.

Sure enough, Guan Yu chased her right away.

"Mu Qiu, if you have the guts to cause trouble, don’t run!"

Mu Qiu ran around the spacious venue, using the nine cubicles to dodge Guan Yu’s pursuit.

"How did I cause trouble?! It clearly started going wrong with Brother Huai! What does it have to do with me?! I’m just an innocent, pitiful blind child!"

Guan Yu kept chasing her, the two of them deadlocked on either side of a partition door.

"Ha! I don’t care! I say you caused trouble, so you caused trouble! If it weren’t for you mentioning Xiao Hua’s story in the last episode, would the show have used this? And if you hadn’t acted foolishly, would we have ended up with just 18.5 points?!"

"I’m wronged!" Mu Qiu was about to raise her hand and swear: "If I had really deliberately caused trouble, you guys wouldn’t have even gotten 18.5 points!"

"...You’ve got a point, do you?! Get over here!"

"I won’t! Can you stop chasing me? Go back and give Brother Huai a beating, okay?!"

Shi Yuhuai: "???"

Guan Yu rolled up her sleeves and roared with a voice like a thunderstorm, "Ah—Mu Qiu, wait for me to pluck you bald!"

"......" Crazy person!

The others just turned their heads to watch them darting this way and that, their heads moving with their movement trajectory.

Jiang Lu: "Guan Yu and Mu Qiu certainly have good legs, moving so fast."

Cheng Zhirang: "......"

The gentleman didn’t know what to comment.

Nearby, Li Yang and the others focused elsewhere, intently watching the two of them in a chase.

"Sister Guan Yu, keep chasing! Don’t stop to make declarations, it’s wasting time!"

From a distance, the panting Mu Qiu burst out with an angry shout, "Li Yang, whose team are you on?!"

Shi Yuhuai chuckled and stated calmly, "On the team of those watching the fun."

Qiu Shuang and Wei Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

"Guan Yu has been holding her tongue for so long, now she has to say her piece," Qiu Shuang said.

This is why after running a short way, she stopped to release harsh words, never catching up to Mu Qiu.

Sister Shu Ran stood in a lady-like pose, also amusedly watching the two, saying, "How long do you think they’ll keep running?"

Li Yang: "If the director doesn’t call time, probably half an hour is no problem, right?"

Wei Yi was shocked: "Running for half an hour straight?! Aren’t they tired?"

Next to him, Shi Yuhuai glanced down at him: "And you believe his lies?"

"...Even Brother Yang tells lies??"

Sister Shu Ran smiled and warned him: "Anyone who regularly interacts with Mu Qiu and Guan Yu doesn’t say much truth."

Wei Yi immediately looked at Cheng Zhirang.

When it comes to often interacting with Mu Qiu, isn’t Cheng Zhirang the most frequent? Does that mean Cheng Zhirang also deceives new guests???

The shift in attention was too obvious, and Cheng Zhirang caught his gaze, turning his head to meet Wei Yi’s eyes with a gentle, polite smile.

Wei Yi: How could Brother Cheng possibly lie?! Absolutely impossible!

He redirected his gaze, maintaining this conviction, removing Cheng Zhirang from the list of suspicion and marking Mu Qiu heavily with bright red.

The two of them had already darted for several minutes, from the partition doors over to their team. Mu Qiu took turns using several tall male guests as defensive shields.

As she shifted from behind Qiu Shuang to behind Shi Yuhuai, without time to change position again, seeing Guan Yu about to pounce like a mad dog, Shi Yuhuai suddenly bent down and picked her up.

Mu Qiu looked wary, sitting on the ground, attempting to use her weight to make him give up, but Shi Yuhuai was quite strong, pinching her arms and moving her, all balled up, in front of Guan Yu.

"Do whatever you like," he said to Guan Yu.

Mu Qiu was under the shadow of the two, looked up and around, and burst into fake tears.

"Help! I’m being bullied by a group! Li Yang! Qiu Shuang!"

Cheng Zhirang had just been about to step forward but paused at Jiang Lu’s teasing stare, maintaining a placid expression as he continued watching Mu Qiu.

Finally, with some team spirit, Li Yang and Qiu Shuang stepped forward to rescue Mu Qiu, each grabbing one of her hands and lifting her to place her in the safety zone.

"Director, can you just call a stop?" Sister Shu Ran glanced at the time on her electronic bracelet, saying, "If we let them go on any longer, we’re going to miss lunch."

Li Yang: "Sister Shu Ran, don’t you skip meals?"

"What does skipping meals have to do with feeling hungry at lunch?"

"......OKK."
