Chapter 73
The shooting schedule on the last day was quite easy. They only needed to record two games and some easter eggs, and it would be all over.
Ming Yu’s state today was obviously not as good as it was yesterday. His partner Du Ruo frowned and asked if he wanted to rest for a while. After all, he was shocked twice by ‘Violent Waterfall’ yesterday and recording the program was very stressful.
Ming Xiaoyu smiled slightly, swallowed to ease the dryness in his throat and shook his head. “Don’t worry Sister Du, I’m fine. I am much better than I was last night.”
Du Ruo slightly frowned and didn’t say anything else. However, her eyes were on Cheng Su not far away.
Today, Cheng Su’s face was very poor, an extreme contrast to his high spirits yesterday. It was estimated that what happened yesterday was discovered by his agent and he was scolded.
Even if he didn’t know the spokesperson of Rayleigh Cano’s 2014 perfume, he couldn’t show it. It might not be the product and series he was endorsing, but it was still Rayleigh Cano.
Once this matter was exposed, Zeng Shu could guess how furious the head of Rayleigh Cano would be.
It was even likely that Cheng Su would lose the endors.e.m.e.nt!
Fortunately, the program hadn’t aired yet and this incident wasn’t so serious. After all, it was understandable if Cheng Su didn’t know what happened three years ago.
Thus, Cheng Su was only mercilessly scolded for two hours last night. Once Zeng Shu’s words had dried up, he said, “I don’t want to see you again for half a month. Until your next job, you will honestly stay home and study every incident of Rayleigh Cano from its creation to the present!”
Du Ruo stared at Cheng Su for a long time. Then this beautiful supermodel’s lips slowly lifted and she sneered.
The other person didn’t notice. Then she gave hot water to Ming Xiaoyu, who had suddenly coughed, and laughed helplessly. “Yesterday was really too hard. Ming Xiaoyu, did you catch fish? If you are fishing, you should skillfully let others take the bite!”
Ming Yu suddenly froze as he drank the water. He stared blankly and saw that the other person was looking at him with a smile, looking as calm and gentle as ever.
The two people stared at each other for a long time before Ming Xiaoyu smiled indifferently. “Sister Du, your words are right. Then you… cough, do you think that it is better to put the fish back to fatten it up or to eat it right away?
Du Ruo replied naturally, “I want to eat it. It is just a dead fish after all.”
In the corner of the dining room, the handsome young man and the beautiful woman smiled tacitly, not speaking anymore.
In the recording session of the last game, Cheng Su really felt like his body was pushed into a hot water pool. He was sweating with anger, but there was nowhere to resolve it.
The last part was playing water polo. The eight guests were a.s.signed by team and there was a goal in each of the four directions. They would obtain one point if they scored a goal.
Of course, there was no doubt that MIng Xiaoyu’s team had already won first place with an appallingly high score. Unless a team could score 200 points during the match, it was impossible to overtake them.
…Scoring 200 goals was only possible if they were standing on the ground and playing non-stop, and they would also get a cramp!
Thus, by the end of the day, most people already saw the show as over and didn’t intend to win the game anymore. Of course, this didn’t mean they didn’t do their best. Wasn’t it good if they could win this game in the end?
Cheng Su was scolded by Zeng Shu last night and was filled with anger.
—This was fine on the premise that no one did anything to him.
When Cheng Su was about to receive the ball, Ming Xiaoyu intentionally splashed the water. Cheng Su blinked and once he opened his eyes again, the ball was gone. When Cheng Su was about to throw a ball, Ming Xiaoyu kicked in a light foul, causing Cheng Su to lose his balance. When he was ready to pa.s.s the ball to his teammates, Ming Xiaoyu’s smiling face suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Su and made a foul ball grab. Cheng Su was angry!
Yes, this was a foul!
A foul!
However, Ming Xiaoyu’s actions were exactly at the corners of the eight cameras. Thus, his actions seemed like a normal ball grab and there wasn’t a problem. Even if Cheng Su wanted to say something, he would just look bitter and he couldn’t speak.
Ming Yu was no longer coughing after taking a throat lozenge. However, he received too much punishment yesterday and his physical fitness really had declined. Therefore, Ming Xiaoyu didn’t score a lot of points in this game, allowing other people to hope for victory.
Except for Cheng Su!
This was a foul!
You are a foul!
It was like Ming Yu was deliberately fouling (not like, it really was intentional) Cheng Su, making him more irritable. The 10th time that Ming Yu took the ball from Cheng Su using foul means, Cheng Su couldn’t stand it anymore and pushed Ming Xiaoyu!
It was a clever push. n.o.body was paying attention to the situation here so it was logical that n.o.body had seen it.
However, the next second—
“Ah! Cheng Su, how can you push Ming Yu like that? You did a foul!”
Du Ruo’s shout draw everyone’s attention. They saw a tall and thin young man being mercilessly pushed by another tall and burly man (Cheng Su was very proud to say that he was several centimetres taller than Ming Xiaoyu ╮（╯＿╰）╭).
Ming Xiaoyu kept coughing, as if he was choking on water. Meanwhile, Cheng Su was holding the ball in his arms.
The director was very surprised at the situation and quickly pulled up the coughing Ming Xiaoyu. However, Ming Xiaoyu kept coughing even on dry land. It seemed the amount of water he swallowed wasn’t light.
The program staff rushed to observe the eight video cameras. Sure enough, in one of the cameras, Ming Yu was pushed inside the swimming pool and the ball in his arms stolen.
This was a game and such nonsense wasn’t permitted. The director shouted directly into the speaker, “Cheng Su foul, out!”
Cheng Su, “!!!!!”
What was this c.r.a.p show!
Who did the foul first, clearly watch it!
However, Cheng Su kept these thoughts in his heart. He understood that the director had watched the video and didn’t find any signs of Ming Yu’s foul actions, otherwise Ming Yu would also be out.
Thus, in the last game, Cheng Su became the first and only person to be out. He sat gloomily next to the pool, while as the other seven guests laughed and played with the ball.
When the camera swept over him, he suddenly changed his face and smiled. But as long as the cameras weren’t paying attention, he didn’t hide his gloomy face.
The game ended and the three day recording was finally over.
The ultimate champions were naturally Ming Yu and Du Ruo. The two people won small gold medals as the champions.
When everyone applauded Ming Yu and Du Ruo’s victory, Cheng Su also smiled and clapped, as if nothing had happened. However, once everyone returned to the hotel in order to pack, Ming Yu had just walked up to the elevator when he saw Cheng Su inside.
In the quiet hotel corridor, no one else was present. Ming Yu stood outside the elevator and Luo Ru was already downstairs to check out. Cheng Su stood with his a.s.sistant inside the elevator, staring at the youth in front of him with cold eyes.
Cheng Su a.s.sumed that Ming Yu would wait for the next elevator. He never expected that Ming Yu would enter the elevator calmly and say with a chuckle, “Mr. Cheng, are you leaving too?”
The language wasn’t close to his natural temperament and att.i.tude. The politeness gave off a feeling of alienation. Ming Yu was acting like nothing had happened, causing Cheng Su to sneer and say, “Ming Yu, your acting is really good.”
The implication was: You are a duplicitous villain. How shameless!
But Ming Yu didn’t seem to understand. He covered his lips and coughed twice. Then he said, “Mr. Cheng, my acting skills are really bad. Many people have said that I am unsuitable for acting.”
Cheng Su replied coldly, “Oh really? I think you can act in front of the camera.”
Ming Yu shrugged helplessly, “My acting is really bad. But thank you for the compliment. I also think that my acting is quite good. It isn’t any worse than my idol, the famous French model Alice Crandall.”
The youth deliberately elongated his last words. This meaningfully intonation caused Cheng Su’s eyes to widen and he couldn’t restrain himself anymore. “Ming Yu! You’re overdoing it! You are just as useless as before if you think this will make me notice you…”
“Cheng Su.” The youth’s calm and quiet voice interrupted Cheng Su. Ming Yu turned to him with cold eyes and sneered. “Please don’t pester me again.”
Cheng Su cried out, “You…!”
At this moment, the elevator let out a ‘ding’ and the door opened. Ming Yu ignored Cheng Su and stepped out. Behind him, Cheng Su shook in fury as his eyes turned red. His a.s.sistant stood beside him and didn’t dare speak.
That evening, Ming Yu sat on a plane to Huaxia and quickly fell asleep under the starry sky.
On the same night, Cheng Su wasn’t on a plane when he suddenly received Zeng Shu’s phone call. The other person yelled, “d.a.m.n! Did you offend Du Ruo? When did you offend Du Ruo? Hey Cheng Su, why don’t you die?”
The calm and refined man exploded with curses, showing how terrible the situation was. The frightened Cheng Su was stunned. He really didn’t understand what had happened.
