Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Elimination System
Shi Ran glanced at it and replied lightly, ‘Kinda.’
“Oh.” Zuo Yifei pursed his lips, his gaze glued to the chocolate.
[Hahahahahaha, little kid, can your gaze be any more obvious?]
[Poor babies and their banned sweets.]
[Let our children eat a little.]
[I can’t believe the first time Yifei and Shi Ran talked was because of chocolate.]
[Our baby is usually talkative. Why doesn’t he talk to Shi Ran?]
[Yi Fei doesn’t like Shi Ran. Investigation complete.]
Shi Ran and Zuo Yifei were the first pair to settle the bill. They waited for Gu Jia and Bai Jingtian at the entrance of the supermarket.
Zuo Yifei wore a mask and glanced at the snack bag in his hand from time to time.
A second later, he became aware of a movement in the corner of his shirt.
He looked down and met Shi Ran’s eyes.
‘Such pretty eyes.’
Zuo Yifei realized his first reaction and almost slapped himself.
Shi Ran pointed her index finger at Zuo Yifei’s pocket.
Zuo Yifei reached into his pocket suspiciously. When he felt the familiar chocolate, his eyes lit up.
He suddenly looked at Shi Ran and said arrogantly, “Even if you please me, it won’t change my impression of you.”
‘He’s not the sort to be easily bought by a bar of chocolate!’
Shi Ran didn’t argue and only laughed.
She did this only to thank Zuo Yifei for his actions in the morning.
Although Zuo Yifei was mostly here to watch the show, he had helped her when so many people were silent.
The four of them returned to the villa after purchasing the ingredients.
“Smells good.” Zuo Yifei sniffed and followed the fragrance in.
Shi Wenfei was cooking. There were already two dishes on the dining table. They looked, smelled, and tasted good.
Zuo Yifei took a deep breath. “Wenfei, you’re so good at cooking!”
Shi Wenfei smiled shyly. “I usually like to explore cooking stuff.”
For the show, she’d gone out of her way to learn to cook with a professional chef. Now, it seemed, the results were remarkable.
Zhou Yufan was in charge of chopping vegetables at the side. One was cooking while the other was chopping vegetables. This scene was inexplicably harmonious.
[The CEO and Feifei are really a match!!]
[For some reason, I feel Shi Ran is the real third party.]
[These two are really sweet. Are you sure they’re not together?]
[The overbearing CEO and his little wife. My romance protagonist has gained face.]
During the meal, everyone ate with relish and then sat around the living room after dinner.
Director Wang’s voice sounded. “I believe everyone already knows before coming that we’re different from the past romance variety shows. This time, we’re using the elimination system.”
“In the following days, the program team will let everyone start their individual live broadcast from time to time. Everyone will each have a separate live broadcast.”
“At the end of the live broadcast every day, we will update everyone’s live broadcast data and choose the person with the highest number of viewers per day.”
“Over the course of a week, people who have accumulated less than a million views will be eliminated.”
“Director Wang,” Liang Bu said, “what if no one has less than a million or more views?”
“And what if one doesn’t turn on their live broadcast as requested?” Gu Jia asked.
“After the program team gives the live broadcast notice, if anyone doesn’t turn it on, the program team will forcibly turn on her live broadcast in half an hour’s time .”
“If everyone reached a million views, no one would be eliminated. On the contrary, those who did not reach it would be eliminated!”
“Of course, we will also present rewards to successful guests. Now, please return to your rooms. The live broadcast equipment has been made ready for everyone.”
[Is this really a romance variety show? Not some competition show?]
[That’s a lot of pressure for a romance variety show.]
[How exciting. The production team sure knows how to play.]
[In other words, if we wanted Shi Ran to be eliminated, would it be better to not watch her live broadcast?]
[I’m determined not to watch Shi Ran’s live broadcast. It’s perfect for her to get lost.]
After the rules were read, everyone returned to their rooms.
It was already equipped with live-streaming equipment and phones.
The eight of them then started streaming.
When the audience saw the news on the trending searches, they rushed into the various live-stream rooms.
Almost every livestream was very popular, except for Shi Ran’s…
Looking at the ‘2’, her livestream room number, Shi Ran felt that she was deliberately being mocked.
Meanwhile, Ji Wenfeng was also worried.
He knew something was wrong when he learned of the rule.
The program team had hidden the elimination rules very well previously, so he did not find out anything. He did not expect this to be the reason.
“Brother Feng, what should we do? Sister Ran’s live-stream only has one person other than us! Do you think we should buy more viewers?” Fang Tongtong suddenly suggested.
Ji Wenfeng shook his head. “This will only backfire.”
“Then what should we do? If it doesn’t reach a million a week, Sister Ran will be eliminated!” Fang Tongtong said anxiously.
“Don’t worry, I’ll think of something. Keep an eye on things for me while I’m out.”
… .
At that moment, Shi Wenfei was interacting with the comments.
She answered almost all the questions on the bullet screen, replying as gently as a sister-next-door would and instantly attracted a larger audience.
[Feifei is so gentle. I love it!!]
[Feifei looks even more beautiful up close!!]
[Family, I just went to Shi Ran’s live broadcast room to take a look. There are only two people, hahahaha.]
[Hahahahahaha, Shi Ran’s live stream is really doomed.]
[This year’s netizens are unexpectedly united]
Shi Wenfei was smug when she saw the comments.
‘Two? That’s lame.’
A million viewers a week seemed like a fantasy to Shi Ran, right?
This time, she did not believe that Shi Ran could still stay in the live-stream room for long!
With that in mind, she picked up her phone and immediately sent a message to her manager.
[Shi Wenfei]: Keep an eye on Ji Wenfeng’s movements. If he buys viewers, expose them immediately.
After doing that, Shi Wenfei felt even more confident and continued answering the questions more gently.
But this time she deliberately skipped all questions about Shi Ran’d situation.
She did not want to attract attention for that bitch!
On the other hand, Shi Ran had gone out straight after resting in her room for half an hour.
This time, she did not take the live broadcast equipment. Instead, she chose the drones.
Two drones were following her.
She headed straight for the supermarket.
She had come to the filming site in a hurry this time she did not bring any daily necessities with her and was going to the supermarket to buy them.
Just as she entered the supermarket, a figure suddenly appeared not far behind her, his eyes staring at her back like a poisonous snake.
The man had dyed blonde hair and was so thin he appeared to be a skeleton.
He gritted his teeth and then smiled viciously. “Shi Ran, I finally caught you. You’re dead meat!”
If Shi Ran was here, he would definitely recognize at a glance as this man was the blonde-haired hooligan from the Jade Hunter Nightclub, Liao Feng’s lackey!
