Bring your bestie to play melon in the domineering love story

Long before the second season of the show started, "Remember the Old Times" had signed a bet agreement with Ziguo Media. This also explains why this mediocre show would spend a lot of money to invite Bai Jing and Qiao Xingyu as permanent guests.

The program team originally wanted to capitalize on their popularity to create hype and successfully earn enough traffic.

Now, it's all gone to waste.

Or the kind that crosses the English Channel.

Director Zhang: It’s cool now, and I feel at ease.

But just when he was at a loss, Huo Xingzhou suddenly gave in and promised Bai Jing that she could continue to stay in the program crew.

Bai Jing was puzzled.

Jiang Ruoli leaned back on a recliner, squinting her eyes in the sun. After listening to them, she responded nonchalantly, "After all, you know she's just a silly girl. She believes everything people say. I don't want to let her leave such a simple person like her."

It would be more interesting to stay.

How could these words of sisterly love, coupled with Jiang Ruoli's contemptuous look, be so unbelievable?

Director Zhang's mouth twitched. "So you're not terminating the contract?"

Jiang Ruoli nodded and asked, "Do you want her to terminate the contract?"

Director Zhang was thinking: Weren't you the ones who forced her to terminate the contract? You even said the production team would have to cover the penalty for breach of contract. He was already prepared to go bankrupt, and now you're backing out like that.

But it’s better this way, at least the loss can be reduced.

As for the matter between Jiang Ruoli and Bai Jing, let them fight it out on their own.

Anyway, there is a 99% chance that Bai Jing will die and retire from the circle in disgrace. Even if he is told by the Jiang family to protect her, there is nothing he can do.

......

Since Bai Jing decided to stay, there was naturally no reason for Qiao Xingyu to leave.

In order to restore the program's image, the director team replanned the program and decided to launch an immersive farmer's life experience.

The guests were reunited.

Before speaking, Director Zhang took a special look at Huo Xingzhou, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was nothing unusual on his face.

After all, the kidnapping case yesterday happened during the recording of the program. Logically speaking, he cannot escape responsibility. Guests can terminate or renew their contracts, but as the chief director, Huo Xingzhou can still make him pack up and leave with just a word.

So he has to take it easy.

"Ahem... everyone, after two days of labor, I'm sure everyone has adapted to the surrounding environment. To better experience rural life in the 1980s, we will now visit a farmer's home for a week-long immersive experience."

"Each member draws a corresponding identity card and, while completing their own hidden tasks, explores various life choices and different endings. The guest with the most work points will receive a TV ticket provided by the program team."

"Immersive script experience?" Han Fei looked curious.

Director Zhang explained, "In the Zhang family, besides Old Lady Zhang and her granddaughter Zhang Xiaoxiao, all other characters will be played by you. She will assign you tasks and may also give you difficulties. Of course, you can also think of this as identity travel. As for the final decision on the distribution of work points, it all lies in the hands of Old Lady Zhang. How you gain her trust and earn work points depends on your efforts."

What a weird task.

Jiang Ruoli couldn't help but frown. Which screenwriter was so talented that he made them travel through time on a variety show and still thought her clothes were not cool enough?

Tang Jiujiu also had a look of disgust on her face.

Both best friends felt powerless, with nowhere to vent their anger.

The audience also complained.

【What's the meaning? 】

[Is it possible to earn work points by playing a role in a period drama?]

【That would be pretty easy, at least I don’t have to work.】

How do you know role-playing doesn't require work?

[Yeah, the production team isn't that kind, who knows what they're going to do.]

[I hope Bai Jing can salvage her image this time, otherwise she'll be in big trouble.]

【The one above has been ordered.】

Qiao Xingyu asked, "What roles should we play?"

"You can read the script first."

Director Zhang signaled the staff to hand them the information.

Jiang Ruoli flipped through the book roughly and found that the relationships between the characters were very simple. Old Mrs. Zhang had four children, three sons and a daughter. The eldest son's wife ran away with her lover after giving birth to the child. The two twin brothers had just married. There was also a distant relative in the family. Their daily life was that the men went out to work and earn work points, and the women did housework at home.

But Old Mrs. Zhang is picky, has a bad attitude, and has triangular eyes. She is especially harsh on her daughter-in-law and looks difficult to deal with.

As a script task, no matter how difficult the character is, it is just an NPC to Jiang Ruoli. As long as she can find a way to get work points from the other party, all problems will be solved.

However, regarding this identity...

Of course, the director team knew what the guests were thinking, and they decided to use the fairest method: drawing lots.

Everyone determines their own destiny.

"Alright, if you all have no objections, you can come over here and draw your ID cards." Director Zhang flashed a playful smile. "But I must remind you that any hidden missions on your ID cards, whether failed or revealed, will result in all your earned work points being reset to zero."

[All cleared?]

[Oh my god! This is exciting!]

[This is quite interesting, hehe! ]

[If they draw lots, it's very random, and the couple might be reunited. Aren't the directors afraid of Boss Huo getting angry?]

[Wait, since someone wants to pretend to be a couple, then with Fang Hao's obsessive possessiveness, wouldn't he go crazy if he saw Tang Jiujiu with someone else?]

[Hahahaha! 120 will arrive in five seconds...]

After Director Zhang finished explaining the mission rules, he suddenly added another one.

"I have one more announcement to make."

"Guests who manage to earn the highest work points in this show and possess three or more special tickets will receive a trip for two to the Maldives and a cash prize of 88.88 million yuan."

Eighty-eight million eight hundred and eighty thousand?

[Who the hell sponsored this? So rich.]

[No wonder the show crew messed things up, but the guests didn't resist. It turns out the best medicine in the world is money, and red envelopes!]

I feel dizzy and think I'm short of vitamin RMB.

【Only children like to get angry, while adults prefer to make money.】

When I have money, I want to be like the Thais and say Sawadee Ka (use my card) when I meet someone!

Jiang Ruoli's eyes sparkled with gold, and she poked Tang Jiujiu with her arm, "What did he just say? The bonus is 88,800...80,000?"

Wow!

Get rich!

Get the bonus and run away immediately!

And at this time.

Huo Xingzhou, who was considered a big victim by netizens, had his eyelids twitched and turned his head to look at Jiang Ruoli, as if he had seen through her thoughts long ago.

He curled his lips and chuckled, looking at the other person's excited and silly face.

Inner thought: It’s still that cute little fox.
