"Now, everyone will be divided into teams according to the slips of paper you drew at the hotel. Based on the draw results, Chu Xi, Fu He, and Wei Jiahe are the blue team, Xie Jianyuan, Xu Chun, Bai Lingling are the red team. Now, please send a representative from each team to collect their mission cards."
After Xu Chun took the mission card, he and Xie Jianyuan unfolded it and looked at it. It said to go to the Clock Tower Square and exchange the password with the contact person before starting the mission.
Without further ado, the two teams wasted no time, returned to the hotel to change into their team uniforms, and then rushed to the mission location.
When they arrived, they found the scene to be packed with people. The production team had arranged bodyguards for each guest. Xu Chun and the others had to find someone in the crowd who seemed to be the contact and exchange passwords before they could start the mission.
"How am I supposed to find them? There are so many grown-ups." Because of the heat, Bai Lingling fanned herself with her hand and looked around.
Xu Chun and Xie Jianyuan had already asked quite a few people. At first, Xu Chun was a little embarrassed, but gradually she became more comfortable and started asking this suspected person, "One set of jianbing guozi, please."
If it weren't for the numerous fans and bodyguards surrounding him, innocent passersby would have definitely thought it was a mental hospital on holiday.
Xie Jianyuan also encountered many setbacks and looked rather unpleasant. After more than ten minutes, the production team began to get anxious when they saw that they had made no progress.
Whether it was a notification from the production team or not, the contact person who had been absent for a long time finally started to show up in front of them, dressed in all red as if afraid of not being noticed, even his hat was red.
"Brother, aren't you hot?" Xie Jianyuan couldn't help but laugh, patting his shoulder. "Look at all the sweat on your body in this sweltering heat."
Xu Chun remarked, "Truly dedicated." She paused, then added with a smile, "Is this your birth year? All this festive decorations!"
Despite the jokes and banter, they eventually exchanged the secret code in a proper manner.
Xu Chun's team's first task was "blindfolded shoe-wearing," which required the guests to be blindfolded, find the shoes on a pressure point mat, and put them on as quickly as possible.
Xu Chun had just blindfolded himself when the Blue Team arrived, presumably having also found their contact.
Wei Jiahe exclaimed dramatically, "You guys are actually faster than me!"
Xie Jianyuan added with a bright smile, "Remove 'actually'."
After Xu Chun and the other two members of the Red Team blindfolded themselves, they immediately lost their sense of direction. When they stepped on the acupressure mat, they all reacted simultaneously.
Xie Jianyuan a muffled groan, Xu Chun hissed in pain, and Bai Lingling walked on, her voice trembling with tears, while gritting her teeth and calling out.
Because they had no sense of direction, the three of them were running around in circles on the acupressure mat like ants on a hot plate.
Suddenly Xu Chun bumped into a broad chest. Because she couldn't see, she instinctively tried to push him away, but instead slapped the person in front of her across the face.
"-hiss."
Xu Chun recognized Xie Jianyuan's voice and quickly apologized. At this moment, the blue team members next to them laughed loudly, especially the two boys, who were so happy they could hardly breathe.
"Left!"
"To the right, to the right!"
The blue team continued to make noise and interfere, Xu Chun and the other two gritted their teeth and persevered. After a difficult struggle, they finally found the shoes.
After struggling to put on her shoes, Xu Chun ripped off her blindfold, and at the same time, the timer stopped.
The program team takes the average time of the three members of each team and selects the winning team.
When the Blue Team was preparing for the game, Xu Chun and his teammates started making noises to distract the Red Team.
Xie Jianyuan called out to Wei Jiahe, "The model you gave me was actually broken a long time ago."
Wei Jiahe suddenly lost his footing and knelt on the acupressure mat, letting out a painful cry.
"Xie Jianyuan!"
Bai Lingling laughed and called out to Chu Xi, "Your makeup's ruined, your makeup's ruined!"
Chu Xi stumbled and nearly fell.
The final results were announced, with the red team winning by a narrow margin. As soon as the program team finished announcing the results, everyone rushed to the next location.
The next location was for indoor filming, and Xu Chun's team arrived early again, where the production crew was already waiting.
"This game is called 'Of Course.' One side says something explosive, some true and some false, and the other side has to answer 'Of Course.' If they hesitate for more than three seconds, they lose. And if they don't want to answer 'Of Course' because the question is too explosive, they concede."
The red team and the blue team looked at each other in bewilderment.
"To add to that, this stage not only requires the two teams to compete against each other, but also internal competition. The final winners from both teams will then face off in the ultimate showdown."
"What?!"
"So now we're enemies?" Bai Lingling asked in surprise.
At the start of the game, the first two players sent out were Fu He and Wei Jiahe from the blue team. The two of them were so fierce that they didn't look like they were on the same team at all.
You actually love wearing makeup in private.
"Of Course."
You often fart while eating.
"Of Course."
You like Bai Lingling.
"Of Course."
"..."
Xu Chun watched the play with great interest, and was reluctant to leave even when the winner was decided; it was just too interesting.
Of course, just watching is one thing; making the game yourself is a completely different experience.
Xu Chun looked at Xie Jianyuan in front of her with a headache.
"Ready! 3! 2! 1! Go!"
Xu Chun asked first, "You've been hiding your real age."
Xie Jianyuan's expression remained unchanged. "Of Course."
"Wow! They're going all out right from the start!" Wei Jiahe teased from the side, and Bai Lingling and the other girls couldn't help but laugh as well.
When it was Xie Jianyuan's turn to speak, Xu Chun held her breath nervously, wondering what questions he would ask.
Xie Jianyuan's eyes held a hint of a smile, "You like me."
