I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!

Chapter 456 - 455: If You Don’t Speak, I’ll Take It as a Yes

Wei Yi was so embarrassed that his face turned red, and Guan Yu almost bent over laughing, when Cheng Zhirang’s wristband sounded another mechanical electronic tone.

"One minute exchange time is over!"

Cheng Zhirang and Shi Yuhuai have exchanged!

Mu Qiu, who was squatting by the flower bed, laughing non-stop, was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at them.

Cheng Zhirang’s hand had just moved away from Shi Yuhuai’s thigh, while Jiang Lu was restraining Shi Yuhuai’s movements, suppressing him with a two-on-one hold.

So the current situation on the field is—Shi Yuhuai inherits the blindness control lock, Cheng Zhirang is lame, Jiang Lu is mute, and Shu Ran hasn’t been "activated" yet.

If at this moment their first thought is to activate Shu Ran, considering the inappropriate factor of men and women touching thighs, then they might forcefully find a female guest to exchange with Shu Ran to activate her.

There are only three female guests on the field in total, and those who can be exchanged are just her and Guan Yu. And Guan Yu has already run quite far and is with Wei Yi, so now she is very dangerous.

Mu Qiu leaned against the edge of the flower bed, sitting on the artificial lawn, her eyes searching for her teammates.

Li Yang was vigilant towards Cheng Zhirang and their actions, still wandering nearby, ready to quietly move away at the right moment, while Qiu Shuang was near the edge of the field, searching for something.

She carefully waved at Qiu Shuang’s position.

Qiu Shuang looked around twice, ran towards her, and then squatted down next to her.

Both of them are hearing-impaired individuals; wanting to communicate smoothly without losing points is very difficult.

Mu Qiu whispered, "Don’t answer me, just listen to what I say, and don’t give any reaction, just keep a dumbfounded look, don’t nod."

Qiu Shuang suppressed the urge to nod, maintaining an extreme composure without blinking.

Seeing his strong control, Mu Qiu felt assured and began analyzing.

"Now, Sister Shu Ran and the three of them, Brother Cheng is lame, Brother Jiang Lu is mute, Sister Shu Ran hasn’t been activated yet. So I guess their priority is to find a female guest to activate Sister Shu Ran.

Sister Shu Ran is lame, having a lame leg in this game must be uncomfortable, so Brother Cheng will choose someone who isn’t lame to exchange with. I’m currently deaf, Sister Guan Yu is mute, neither of us is lame.

So between the choice of mute and deaf, it’s possible, I’m saying there’s a higher probability they’ll choose Sister Guan Yu, because pretending to be deaf isn’t easy. But it’s also possible that Brother Cheng will guess this line of thought, and specifically target us.

After all, they’ve already allied. Although they’re using Sister Guan Yu’s group to activate themselves, to mess with us, they’re likely willing to set aside prior differences."

Qiu Shuang listened intently, while occasionally paying attention to the surroundings in case someone approached.

"So," Mu Qiu poked her head to glance at the most crowded spot, squatted back down, and said, "we’re really in danger now. Li Yang likes to run, but he’s lame, easy to lose points, so he must quickly exchange his control lock with someone who isn’t lame, preferably deaf."

She paused at this point, her clear and bright eyes looking into Qiu Shuang’s.

"Can you become mute? Don’t nod. The three of us can’t all be deaf, best not to have a blind or lame either, then only one can be mute. I think you’re the best candidate."

Qiu Shuang gave no reaction, only lightly furrowing his brow, staring at her constantly talking mouth.

He’s quite the actor.

Given this...

"I’ll take your silence as a yes."

Qiu Shuang: "......"

"Let’s go bring Li Yang over now, before Brother Cheng and his team act to snatch people, let’s get Sister Guan Yu first, let her swap with Li Yang, then you swap with Li Yang, don’t nod, got it."

Qiu Shuang paused for a moment.

What does ’got it’ mean?

Mu Qiu hadn’t noticed his pause, she was already up, turning around to execute the plan.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, she faced someone’s chest.

She closed her eyes with remorse, slowly looked up.

Jiang Lu, with Cheng Zhirang beside him, was standing on the other side of the oval flower bed. Because the shape was oval, as long as you stand close to the edge, the person on the opposite side will be near.

Mu Qiu stepped back two steps.

Jiang Lu laughed in his deep voice, "What a coincidence, caught you plotting huh."

"....."

She constantly reminded herself, I’m deaf, I’m deaf, I’m deaf, then put on a fake smile, pretending she heard nothing: "Brother Jiang Lu what a coincidence, hey, Brother Jiang Lu aren’t you mute? Why do I see your mouth constantly moving?!"

Jiang Lu: "Because I made moves on the actress’s leg."

"...Haha Brother Jiang Lu what are you saying? Your mouth moves too fast I can’t keep up!"

Whoa, whoa, whoa why does this group play by no rules?! What happened to the gender differences, under the camera you can’t even stare at the actress twice?! How did Jiang Lu directly press on Shu Ran’s thigh to switch control locks?! When did this happen?!

Why internal swaps among them?!

Her dramatic expression was too obvious, Jiang Lu chuckled and pulled Cheng Zhirang towards her: "Don’t worry, we aren’t doing anything extra, just bringing Brother Cheng for some revenge."

Cheng Zhirang stepped forward, clearly with closed eyes, yet he accurately turned towards her location.

"We need a deaf one," he said.

Their group’s situation now is: Shu Ran is mute, Jiang Lu is lame, Cheng Zhirang is blind.

If someone runs too fast and is lame, they get penalized, which is disadvantageous in this game, the blind can’t see, it’s not easy to move, also disadvantaged.

So it’s best to swap the lame out. Swap for what? Not a mute, because there’s already a mute in the group, so it can only be for a deaf one.

Currently on the field, the deaf ones are Wei Yi, Qiu Shuang, Mu Qiu.

Conveniently, Mu Qiu and Qiu Shuang are on a team and together, who else would they chase?

They looked like they meant business, Mu Qiu swallowed, stepped back again, then counted down in her heart 3, 2, 1, grabbed Qiu Shuang and immediately turned to run.

"Run! Li Yang! Come over!"

Qiu Shuang, realizing, then grabbed her wrist, through an ice sleeve, ran ahead pulling her along.

"My apologies."

Mu Qiu was momentarily stunned by the sudden speed-up but quickly sprinted to match his pace, and still remembered to shout to Li Yang: "Li Yang! Don’t run too fast! You’ll lose points!"

Li Yang ran agilely while dragging his leg, loudly responding: "Okay!"

Jiang Lu was already chasing them with Cheng Zhirang, because Cheng Zhirang himself is blind, Jiang Lu had to tug him along, constantly reminding him of directions.

"To the left! No obstacles ahead, Cheng Zhirang you can speed up!"

Cheng Zhirang pursed his lips, running faster than Jiang Lu, fearless, as if he were a wolf relying on scent, directly pounced forward.

Jiang Lu, dragging his leg behind, directed.

"Front right, two o’clock direction! Mu Qiu is just ahead!"

Cheng Zhirang reached out while sprinting.
