Chapter 585: The Production Team Was Evil
The four teams had to be divided into two for the challenge. Team selection was to be done via drawing of lots. Considering the animosity between Shen Si and Huo Xiang’s teams, for once, the director did not try to make things difficult for them. He changed plans last minute, and made team selection voluntary.
Shen Si and Wu Miao were rude and pretentious off late, so neither Yin Hai nor Xiao Moling wanted to team up with them. Since there was animosity between Huo Yao and Shen Si, they knew it was impossible for them to team up, as well.
As the eldest guest on the program, Yin Hai volunteered to team up with Shen Si and Wu Miao, hence, everyone was spared from any awkwardness.
Xiao Moling was introverted in nature. He was relieved when he did not have to team up with Shen Si.
Shen Si had won the best actress award recently, so she had a higher status in the entertainment industry. However, Xiao Moling was keenly aware that Shen Si despised him. Despite his attempts to befriend her, she had merely put on a show during the program.
The moment the show was over, she could not be bothered with him. For all he knew, she might even think that he was attempting to increase his hype by exploiting hers.
Instead of making his life difficult, he would rather choose to team up with Huo Xiang and Huo Yao. Since they were around the same age, they were not as manipulative. Also, he admired Huo Yao a lot.
Before long, they were split into two teams. The production team led both teams to an old residential property.
Two piles of equipment were placed in each house to be used for remodeling. This included wood, electric drills, concrete, bricks, rags, and other things that would come in handy.
The houses they were a.s.signed to remodel were right next to each other.
After they chose their houses, the host announced that their day in the countryside had officially begun.
“I can’t believe that the production team was creative enough to come up with such a challenge,” said Xiao Moling as he pushed open a battered door.
Since these houses had been abandoned for years and the production team did not do any cleaning prior to the filming, the dust on the wooden door fell right onto Xiao Moling’s head.
Xiao Moling went speechless.
The cameraman deliberately gave Xiao Moling a close up and the viewers burst out laughing when they caught the expression on his face.
[Xiaoxiao looks so absolutely dumbstruck that I don’t know what to say.]
[Haha. That dust caught him completely unaware. I feel a little bad for the guy.]
[Did you notice what Little Princess’s little sister did? She pulled him aside when Xiaoxiao opened the door.]
[Sure enough, you can only get to see a domineering little sister indulging her older brother with Lucky’s little sister around.]
Xiao Moling composed himself after all the dust fell on him. He retreated unhurriedly and patted the dust off.
Huo Yao stood at the door and glanced around the dirty and messy house. There were even cobwebs gathering on the old, abandoned furniture. She turned to respond to Xiao Moling’s previous comment. “The production team is not only creative, but also evil.”
The production team was speechless this time as they looked at the monitor.
They had yet to do their worst!
“How shall we go about remodeling the place?” Little Princess promptly placed all his hope on his little sister.
Huo Yao started to roll her sleeves up. “I saw some videos about remodeling old farm residences online. I have a feeling that the director took inspiration from those clips. Can someone check online and find something similar for a look?”
