Chapter 244 My heart aches so much I can barely stand. How can that not be painful!
Amidst the commotion, Yuan Yangyang successfully completed her task of waking people up.
I'm really looking forward to the program's reward.
The staff member put a card in her hand and then disappeared in a flash.
It's a reminder card.
Yuan Yangyang held the card, her face full of suspicion.
"Director, is this the reward you promised? You're not kidding me, are you?"
Although she enjoyed playing pranks on others, she didn't want to have worked for nothing so early in the morning.
Especially since Director Wang is so stingy, she had reason to suspect that he wanted to use her as a freeloader.
Director Wang coughed lightly to cover up his guilty conscience.
"How could that be! This card will be a great help for today's itinerary. Take it or leave it, don't be hypocritical after getting a good deal."
Seeing Wang Dao's righteous and eloquent words, Yuan Yangyang stopped thinking about it.
After Yuan Yangyang walked away, the assistant director sidled up to Director Wang and pouted.
"Don't you feel guilty? You're so old, and you're still lying to young girls. Be careful she finds out and comes after you!"
Director Wang said irritably, "What do you know? Yuan Yangyang never plays by the rules. I'm already being lenient by not making things more difficult for her."
If we give her any more favors, she's afraid she'll cause a huge uproar on the show!
Are we still going to continue this show?
Although what Director Wang said wasn't entirely without merit, the assistant director was the one who knew him best.
She wasn't buying his act at all.
With a snort, he said sarcastically, "Old fox, do you dare say you had no ulterior motives in sending Yuan Yangyang to prank the other guests? Isn't it just because you're interested in her 'misbehavior'?"
The show got high ratings, Yuan Yangyang played the villain, and you just disappeared without a trace.
Director Wang dismissed it, saying, "Do you think Yuan Yangyang really doesn't know? Do you think she cares?"
"She gets a legitimate reason to fight back, and I get higher ratings—it's a win-win situation. Yuan Yangyang has no objections, so why are you acting like a nagging monk here?"
As Director Wang said, this was a live broadcast, and Yuan Yangyang naturally knew that her every word and action would be magnified and over-interpreted by netizens.
But she didn't care.
With a wealthy family backing her up, it would be too stifling to live a life of fear and timidity.
She has the right to be arrogant; there's no need for her to make herself miserable.
Moreover, by participating in this live-stream variety show, he has already largely accomplished his mission of clearing Fifth Brother's name.
She no longer needs to be cautious.
Just like my older brothers said, we're treating this as a vacation.
Do whatever makes you feel good.
The guests were told that the next activity would be hiking, and that all tasks would be carried out on the mountain for the entire day.
Upon hearing the news, Yuan Yangyang immediately returned to her room to prepare for the trip up the mountain.
When she had filled her backpack and was fully equipped, only the senior group had a backpack; the other two groups were empty-handed. Yuan Yangyang shook her head at this.
I don't know how these people grew up; they have absolutely no common sense.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Director Wang began to explain the rules.
“These mountains are full of treasures. Today, our guests will need to rely on their own abilities to obtain their three meals a day on this mountain.”
Upon hearing this, the guests sighed.
Tu Xiangchen spoke first, "Director, we don't recognize anything in these mountains. You expect us to make a living off them? That's too much to ask."
Lin Yan was also very worried. Besides what Tu Xiangchen had said, she also knew that her physical strength was very poor and that mountain climbing was her weakness.
Not only will it not gain her more followers, it might even worsen netizens' impression of her.
Besides, climbing up covered in sweat would definitely damage one's image.
She quickly chimed in, "Yes, director. If we're asked to find food on the mountain, we're likely to only suffer from hunger and poisoning."
"Besides, we girls are much weaker than the boys, which isn't fair to us!"
She deliberately made it sound serious in hopes that the director would change his mind.
But to everyone's surprise, the first person to object was Su Mingyue.
Su Mingyue had been looking forward to climbing the mountain for a long time, and she was waiting for the system to say that Qi Cheng had gone missing on the mountain.
If she doesn't climb up, how can she increase her favorability?
Su Mingyue didn't stand on ceremony and said to Lin Yan, "If you don't want to suffer, don't drag me along. I think climbing up is great; it's good exercise and you can enjoy the scenery—a win-win situation."
Tu Sibo echoed, "Since the production team has made the arrangements, we, as guests, should cooperate well and uphold the spirit of the contract."
Tu Sibo's dedicated demeanor made Yuan Yangyang feel awkward no matter how she looked at it.
I always felt he was being too deliberate, like he was holding back a fart.
Unbeknownst to Yuan Yangyang, Tu Sibo's agent finally contacted him last night.
Tell him that his reputation was very bad yesterday, and that he should work hard today to change netizens' negative opinions of him.
Furthermore, in order to make Tu Sibo's day go more smoothly, his agent obtained inside information from the staff.
He revealed it to Tu Sibo, just so that Tu Sibo could shine today.
That's why Tu Sibo was so eager to go hiking.
Director Wang continued to announce the rules.
"Considering that the guests have limited wilderness survival skills, we have hidden mission cards and supply packs along the way up the mountain. You can obtain supplies through these two methods."
"Keep it up, and try to reach the top soon!"
After giving his explanation, the director left the camera, leaving the guests looking at each other.
Yuan Yangyang and Yuan Si'an exchanged a glance, slung their backpacks over their shoulders, and headed towards the mountain path.
Fortunately, the production team had planned the route in advance, so as long as we followed the arrows, there wouldn't be any major problems.
However, if you wander around aimlessly in the mountains, things could get complicated.
Tu Sibo already knew the locations of several important supplies from his agent.
Worried that someone else would take it, he took the lead and dragged Tu Xiangchen along to run ahead.
Tu Xiangchen didn't understand, but he let him be.
However, Tu Sibo's stamina was not very good, and he was already panting heavily before even reaching the location where the first supply pack was hidden.
On the contrary, the other groups gained something, obtaining one or two task cards.
Yuan Yangyang was speechless when she saw the task card she had found.
The sign read: "Make a male guest feel heartbroken. Task complete. Reward: a bottle of mineral water."
What kind of ridiculous task is this? Yuan Yangyang suspects the production team is messing with her.
Yuan Si'an also saw the above content, and then he became addicted to acting.
He clutched his chest and retreated repeatedly, looking as if he were heartbroken and about to die.
Yuan Yangyang immediately understood and shouted into the camera, "Director, call an ambulance quickly! My brother is heartbroken!"
Whether the director actually saw it or not, the viewers in the live stream were amused by the scene.
Everyone started watching the spectacle.
[Haha, these two siblings are hilarious! They're always acting out scenes wherever they go!]
[Yuan Si'an: It's just heartache, no big deal, the textbook heartache is here!]
[Yuan Si'an was in so much pain he could barely stand; how could he not be heartbroken!]
