Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

At this moment, Emily covered the microphone with her hand, lowered her voice to a very low level, leaned close to Shi Ye, and whispered, "Little brother, was my cooperation just now good enough?"

A sly glint flashed in her eyes, and then she added in a low voice, "That box, there's something fishy about it!"

"Thank goodness you didn't fall for it."

Shi Ye was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at her.

Although Emily didn't say it directly, he already knew it in his heart, and it was an unspoken understanding.

He replied softly, "Thank you, Emily."

Emily smiled slightly and replied, "You're too kind."

She just couldn't stand the way the production team was putting their own agenda on things.

They really think they can fool people!

Did they think no one would notice?

Because I myself came from humble beginnings and experienced a lot of hardship from being taken advantage of.

Therefore, what I hate most in this life is the endless underhanded operations and despicable means.

This time, the production team's behavior was truly disgusting, and coupled with Lee Ji-eun's obviously ulterior motives, it was utterly repulsive.

It was precisely out of this disgust and indignation that the impromptu cooperation just now occurred.

Soon, the competition officially began.

Charlene also watched the whole thing.

Perhaps, they began to have doubts about the production team.

Therefore, everything I see now seems to be the result of some hidden scheme.

Just then, the production crew took away the lottery box they had just used and put it in a tent next to them, which was specifically used to store props.

Charlene subtly observed her surroundings and noticed that there weren't many people there; everyone was focused on the match and hadn't paid much attention to that corner.

She quickly changed her mind and made an excuse to go to the restroom, leaving temporarily.

Emily noticed this and asked with concern, "Do you want to come with me?"

Charlene quickly waved her hand with a smile, "No need, I can do it myself, I'll be back soon."

Then, she left the filming location and headed towards the restroom.

After entering the restroom, she pretended to go through the motions to avoid being noticed.

Then, she came out and, using the tent and some surrounding cover as cover, quickly slipped into the prop room.

As soon as she entered, Charlene saw the raffle box that had been casually tossed aside by the door.

She approached and reached out to open the box.

Just as she expected, the box had indeed been tampered with.

The box has several partitions in the middle, dividing it into six compartments.

This design allows the contents of each cell to be adjusted without anyone noticing through a hidden rotation mechanism.

In other words, the production team could arrange each square and place the ball's color at will, thus secretly manipulating the lottery results.

Logically speaking, under such a mechanism, the probability of Shi Ye being assigned to the same group as Lee Ji Eun is actually quite high.

Finally, why did they stagger?

Charlene frowned slightly, lost in thought for a moment.

She carefully recalled the entire process of drawing lots, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her, making her realize the trickery involved.

If I remember correctly, when these balls are arranged, they must be placed alternately with blue and red balls, and this cycle must be repeated.

The first two groups must have been identified by Shi Ye.

Lee Ji-eun, as the third person to be drawn, received the blue ball.

This further confirms Tokino's guess.

So they deliberately chose to draw last, and their gamble paid off, avoiding being assigned to the same group.

After Xia Lin understood, she felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders and let out a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Shi Ye also noticed something was wrong and intentionally avoided Lee Ji-eun.

Otherwise, with the show's deliberate arrangements and matchmaking, who knows how they would go to great lengths to create various opportunities for the two of them to be alone.

It's even possible that they deliberately edited together fabricated, ambiguous scenes.

Thinking of this, Xia Lin's eyes involuntarily turned cold, and a sense of vigilance and displeasure rose in her heart.

She pressed the button quickly and skillfully on the watch on her wrist.

This watch looks very ordinary, with a simple dial that only displays the time, just like any other wristwatch.

However, when she gently pressed the button on the side, the dial instantly floated with the intricate mechanical structure, revealing its high-tech core.

This watch has many functions, including not only basic time display, but also advanced features such as high-definition shooting, recording, and positioning.

This is the latest smart device developed by Xiaobai Company.

He immediately gave one to each of his relatives and friends, including her.

Charlene had just turned on the watch and hadn't even had a chance to operate it when she heard footsteps approaching from outside the tent.

She was startled and quickly got up.

Her first thought was to find a place to hide.

It would be bad if we were found out.

She quickly scanned her surroundings. The tent was filled with prop boxes and miscellaneous items. The only place she could hide was the half-person-high wooden box next to her.

She tiptoed over quickly, and just as she was about to squat down, she was surprised to find that the footsteps outside the door had stopped.

The visitor showed no intention of coming in; they simply stood outside the tent and spoke in hushed tones.

Charlene held her breath, carefully moved forward, and peered out through the gap in the tent flap.

Then I saw two men in film crew uniforms smoking.

One of them took a deep drag on his cigarette, his voice trembling slightly: "I was really on edge just now... When that car came to an abrupt stop, the wheels slipped for quite a while."

He flicked off the ash from his cigarette and continued, "Luckily, things stabilized in the end, and nothing serious happened."

Why did the director have to instruct us to tamper with things in the car?

If something really goes wrong, won't I be held fully responsible?

The other person lowered their voice and spoke, their tone tense and urgent, "Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear! This can't be spread, or we'll all be finished!"

The first person to speak took a deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled.

Amidst the swirling smoke, he replied in a deep voice, "I know what's important, don't worry, I only dare to say a few words here."

I just want to know, is this going to continue, this kind of rip-off?

The second person sighed, his tone uncertain, "I'm not entirely sure either, but the director is clearly planning to create opportunities for the producer's niece."

I heard that niece came to the film set this time to get close to Shi Ye!

The first person scoffed and shook his head, saying, "That kid Shi Ye is so unlucky to be liked by a woman like that."

"These days, power talks. Who told her she got in through connections!"

As the two talked, the cigarettes in their hands gradually burned out.

After they stubbed out their cigarettes, one of them said, "Alright, let's not delay any longer. We need to hurry back and put the car back in its original condition."

"I'll have to return this car later, without leaving any trace."

They talked in hushed tones as they turned and left.

After they had walked away into the distance, Charlene slowly emerged from the tent.

Her face was extremely pale, her eyes filled with shock and anger.
