Chapter 1406: I’ll be in the same team as s.h.i.+ Hanchu!
Dong Dong immediately nodded.
“Understood! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do it!”
With that, she opened the car door and ran towards s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s a.s.sistant, Little Song.
Su Manman got out of the car with reddened ears. The first person she saw was the a.s.sistant director. The a.s.sistant director hadn’t expected that the young lady with the sponsors.h.i.+p would be such a stunning beauty. The a.s.sistant director was astounded for a moment before smiling and telling Su Manman that the director wanted to see Su Manman.
The director’s att.i.tude towards Su Manman was very friendly. Ignoring the fact that Su Manman’s appearance was enough for her to have a place in the entertainment industry, the director had to support her because even though Su Manman was a newcomer, she had invested in this episode.
After roughly telling Su Manman what the plan is for that day, the director politely asked Su Manman if she had any preference in which team she would like to join.
After all, she was his benefactor, so he had to serve her well…
Su Manman replied without thinking, “If you’re going to make a team of two, I’ll be in the same team as s.h.i.+ Hanchu!”
She had come here… for s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
“Okay, we’ll make arrangements then!” The director agreed readily. “Other than that, do you have any other requests?”
The director was used to such requests. After all, with s.h.i.+ Hanchu around, there would definitely be plenty of cameras. Any smart person would choose to be with s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
“I don’t have any other requests!” Su Manman said.
The director nodded. “Brother Jie has already told me that the director of the ‘The Olden Days’ is planning to release the first trailer next week. He has already agreed to let our production crew be the first to release the second trailer. When the show airs, your introduction will be in the second trailer.”
Su Manman nodded. She knew…
She was currently just a newcomer with little fame. What would she need an introduction for?
“Then, we’ll be starting in 15 minutes!” The a.s.sistant director reminded Su Manman as he escorted her out of the equipment car. “Drink less water on the show and make sure you’re always within the camera range. It’s easier to edit when there are more scenes!”
The a.s.sistant director treated Su Manman as a newbie who knew nothing and kindly reminded her.
On the other side.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s expression didn’t turn for the better when he received daif.u.ku and the coffee in his hands. He looked increasingly gloomy.
“Did Su Manman give this to you?” s.h.i.+ Hanchu stroked the box with his fingers.
a.s.sistant Song nodded. “Su Manman’s a.s.sistant sent it over.”
s.h.i.+ Hanchu gritted his teeth. A part of his heart that was covered in dust seemed to come alive…
His fingers trembled slightly as he was wondering how Su Manman found out!
Jiang Mingzhu thought that he liked to eat daif.u.ku, but actually… it wasn’t that he liked them. He knew that Jiang Mingzhu liked them, but since she was obsessed with controlling her weight, she wouldn’t eat them. Hence, he told her he liked them, so Jiang Mingzhu would indulge in eating just one or two without feeling any guilt.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s fans knew that s.h.i.+ Hanchu… actually didn’t like sweet food!
Ever since Jiang Mingzhu pa.s.sed away, s.h.i.+ Hanchu had almost never touched dessert!
Su Manman… Why did she always bring him food that he said he liked?
How did she know?
Seeing s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s tense face, Little Song asked softly, “Brother Hanchu, do you not like this?”
“G.o.d s.h.i.+, h.e.l.lo…”
A soft and gentle voice called out to s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu turned his head and saw that it was Ji Jiarou, the other guest attending the show today.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu gave Ji Jiarou a gentlemanly nod and casually handed the coffee and daif.u.ku to Little Song. “Eat it!”
“Eh? Brother Hanchu, don’t you…”
Little Song swallowed the words “love daif.u.ku the most“. After all, there were outsiders around.
The recording started.
As usual, the host introduced the guests for this episode.
In terms of seniority, the host first introduced s.h.i.+ Hanchu. He also mentioned that s.h.i.+ Hanchu was willingly becoming a supporting actor in “Silent Disaster” this time. He was a handsome man who didn’t have many scenes.
Later on, he mentioned “The Olden Days” when he introduced Su Manman.
The director said that the teams would be decided by drawing lots. They would draw a team with the same color in the envelope.
Ji Jiarou took out an envelope from the director’s hand and started shouting that she was afraid to be a.s.signed to the same team as Su Manman. If two girls were to go in together, they might be scared to death. She then apologized to Su Manman and said that she was really too scared. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to be in the same team as Su Manman, but she felt that with a guy around, she could still feel a sense of security.
Su Manman smiled and didn’t say anything.
Opening the envelope, Su Manman was Team Blue…
As expected, s.h.i.+ Hanchu was also Team Blue.
Ji Jiarou had yet to open the envelope when she received it. She insisted on waiting for Su Manman’s teammate to come out before opening it, saying that she would leave some hope for herself.
Ji Jiarou was the most popular female team leader at the moment. She was usually very good at wheedling and acting cute, and the audience liked girls like her.
Su Manman was lucky to be in the same team as G.o.d s.h.i.+. Ji Jiarou opened her envelope. It was Team Huang… Her teammate was an Olympic champion, so she felt safer.
Red, yellow, blue, green, orange, five teams voted according to the votes… Those with more votes entered first, while those with fewer votes entered later.
Unsurprisingly, everyone gave their greatest concern to s.h.i.+ Hanchu and Su Manman. They said that because s.h.i.+ Hanchu looked like he wasn’t afraid of anything, they wanted s.h.i.+ Hanchu to go in first and lead the way for them. Then, everyone apologized to Su Manman and apologized for implicating Su Manman.
Su Manman wasn’t afraid. Her calm demeanor made one feel that she was merely going in to take a look.
“We’ve increased the difficulty of this game. Once you enter, don’t let the Ghost King catch up to you and mark you… The door will be locked. Unless you find the key, you’ll have to stay inside for half an hour before you can come out.”
The guests wailed and complained that the production crew didn’t have an ounce of humanity. Some even wanted to beat up the director.
Su Manman, s.h.i.+ Hanchu, and their cameraman were already preparing to enter.
Su Manman glanced at s.h.i.+ Hanchu and saw that s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s thin lips were pursed, but no emotions could be seen…
However, she still remembered that when she and s.h.i.+ Hanchu went to Universal Studios, he froze the moment he entered the haunted house. Back then, as Jiang Mingzhu, she asked s.h.i.+ Hanchu what was wrong with him. s.h.i.+ Hanchu said that he couldn’t move his legs at the sight of such lighting, so she had no choice but to hold s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s hand and walk the entire way. Because of this, Su Manman had mocked s.h.i.+ Hanchu for several months.
Su Manman was already prepared to go in and protect s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
As soon as he entered, s.h.i.+ Hanchu felt Su Manman tugging at the corner of his s.h.i.+rt. He turned around…
“Do you want me to hold your hand?” Su Manman smiled as she asked.
