Chapter 301: Happy!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The night was hazy, and the lights around the camp were sparse.
An evening breeze blew gently at the sky outside, and the dim shadows swayed with it.
The live-stream continued…
Most of the viewers in the live-stream were trying to make their presence known in the comments section, hoping that Meng Chuyuan would pick their comment, but in the end, the questions that she picked were mainly those that were tricky to answer.
The preview shown in the premiere alluded to the ingredient auction that happened the next day. The production team had specially featured Meng Chuyuan and Liao Jiake’s private fish exchange, as well as everyone’s dark faces when she arrived late at the venue for the mission that afternoon, in the preview…
Coincidentally, some anti-fans seized these points and attacked Meng Chuyuan.
Bullet comment 1: [You clearly have a mouth, but when Liao Jiake asked to exchange for the fish, you didn’t bother giving her a reason, so you deserve to be scolded. Don’t use the dramatic effect of the variety show as an excuse. The earth can still turn without you.]
Meng Chuyuan first recited the user’s ID before replying accordingly. “Why should I be responsible for your vivid imagination?”
In other words: There’s no need for me to explain what I do to all of you. The outcomes of your imagination have nothing to do with me.
Although she was not in the entertainment industry, as a modern person, she knew very well that the Internet was uncontrollable. She could be scolded even for saying nothing. In any case, no matter what she did in the end, there would be people who would defame her.
Bullet comment 2: [You went out dressed neatly early in the morning. You arrived at the supply station but didn’t take your breakfast with you. I’m quite speechless… It’s fine if you don’t want to eat, but you even made your own teammate go hungry with you. You’re really too good.]
Meng Chuyuan said, “What are you saying… Just because you don’t understand what’s going on doesn’t mean that there’s something wrong with my behavior, okay? This is equivalent to such a scenario: I’ve entered a store to shop but I didn’t buy anything. Are you not going to let me leave the store in that situation?”
When answering the second half of the question, Meng Chuyuan turned to look at Lu Jinsen and said indifferently, “If you want to eat, go get the food yourself. We’re all adults with hands and feet. Why should I spoil you?”
Lu Jinsen:
Bullet comment 3: [Meng Chuyuan didn’t sleep during lunch break and was busy running around. Did she have nothing else better to do… Also, once it was time to work, she arrived late. What the hell is this? No human can do such a thing, right?]
“It must have been so hard on this friend, having to continually pay attention to me even though you can’t stand me,” Meng Chuyuan answered a few comments in a row that were all nitpicking her. She was still calm and unaffected.
She said casually, “Didn’t you already watch it all? Your brain seems to work pretty well, but do you dare to take a bet- that I really had nothing else better to do?”
“Once it’s time to work, I arrive late… Isn’t that a little exaggerated? I was only late once. Why does that entail that I should be deprived of my right to be human? No one is perfect. How can one not make mistakes in life? Besides, I’ve already apologized for my actions.”
[Sister Meng is right! I’m begging, Sister Meng, hurry up and debut. Such a forthright personality is really suitable for shaking up the entertainment industry!]
[Your brain seems to work pretty well, hahahaha. Sister Meng sure knows how to be sarcastic. I remember when I was watching the live-stream, Young Master did ask Sister Meng where she was going and Sister Meng even specifically said that she wanted to take a walk to digest her food. She had already said it so clearly. Why is there still someone questioning her?]
[I’m really speechless from the Internet trolls. How can they magnify such trivial matters?]
[That’s right. Not every action has to have a purpose. I feel that these people are really ridiculous… They’re just jealous and can’t bear to see others doing well.]
[To be honest, I’m a little jealous now. Sister Meng, please choose some good comments to reply to. Don’t bother with those haters anymore. Boohoo-]
Apart from Xu Huaning and Zhang Yunshu’s group, who were chatting normally, the live-streams of the other two groups also had many tricky comments. The comments section was basically asking about the relationship between the two parties.
Bullet comment 1: “You two got along so well when you first filmed the variety show. Why did you start to become more and more like enemies later on? Are you two biological siblings?”
Initially, Qi Zhen did not want to answer such a question. However, more than one audience member in the comment section was asking about it. He could only reply calmly, “Of course we are biological siblings.”
“…” The corners of Qi Yan’s mouth twitched.
Bullet comment 2: [Is it because you guys don’t get along that the production team deliberately made adjustments in the past few episodes? Amongst the original three groups, only you and Liao’s group split up. After the regrouping, I felt that some people were happy while others were sad…]
Seeing that many viewers were saying that Qi Yan was pretentious and treating Qi Zhen badly, Qi Zhen quickly refuted the rumors. “No, I’m not in a good state because I’ve been too tired recently.”
Qi Yan sneered. “How am I bad to Qi Zhen? Did I hit him or scold him?”
On the variety show, Qi Yan had restrained her temper and gave Qi Zhen face.
Perhaps it was because of Qi Yan’s words that the comments section suddenly became lively again. They began to expose Qi Yan’s nasty behavior and criticized her for not cooperating actively when she was doing missions. Everything was done by Qi Zhen alone.
In order to appease the fans, Qi Zhen also took the initiative to clarify things. My sister treats me quite well.”
Since young, other than giving him attitude, there was nothing else Qi Yan had done that deserved criticism.
After all, they did not see each other often. The only reason the two of them had a connection was because of their Grandma. They also participated in this variety show because of her.
In the previous episodes, Qi Yan did indeed let her personal emotions show, especially when she saw Qi Zhen’s positive performance and how he had made a good impression in front of everyone. She could not stand Qi Zhen’s pretentious face.
Initially, she had indeed thought of acting out their “loving” relationship until the end when filming the variety show. However, she was not in this industry after all. Her acting skills were not as exquisite as Qi Zhen’s, so she naturally started to slip up.
At this moment, there were also many spectators in the Liao sisters’ live-stream.
Bullet comment 1: “Did the two of you get a script for the variety show? Previously, the two of you were quite concerned about each other. Why did you interact less and less towards the end?”
Due to the fact that there were staff members present and the director was also sitting in front of the monitor, watching, when faced with such a question, Liao Jiake naturally clarified for the production team. “Our Variety show doesn’t have a script.”
She only replied to the first half of the sentence. Liao Jiake pretended not to see the comments about the change in her relationship with Liao Jiayan.
Bullet comment 2: [The two of you look too similar. If I hadn’t been watching the live-stream, I might not have been able to tell which one of you is the other.]
After the last two episodes of filming, Liao Jiayan seemed to have changed a lot. Seeing such comments, she didn’t care as much as before. “It’s okay. There are many people who can’t tell us apart.”
Liao Jiayan’s tone was calm. Others might not have paid any attention to it, but Liao Jiake tacitly understood what she meant.
Bullet comment 3: [Liao Jiayan doesn’t know what’s good for her. Ke Ke treats her so well and yet she often gives her the cold treatment. Does she really think that she can debut just by participating in a variety show?]
Liao Jiayan replied calmly, “If you want to criticize me, I suggest you go out more during the day to bask in the sun. Don’t slander me. I’ve never thought of debuting. It was not my wish to participate in the recording.”
She made it sound so simple that everyone’s attention began to shift to Liao Jiake. The onlookers were all asking if Liao Jiake had forced her to participate in the variety show.
The two of them did not respond to this matter because the time for interaction was up and the live-stream had ended. The netizens switched to Weibo to continue discussing the remaining unsolved topics.
The online interaction this time made the guests unhappy. The audience seemed to be reminding them that their relationship had reached an irreparable stage.upda@te by newnovel.o r g
During this interactive segment, Lu Jinsen would occasionally say a few words.
Most of the time, Meng Chuyuan would be the one giving inputs from the side. When she saw someone come out to defame Lu Jinsen, she could also retort to them in a civilized manner.
The anti-fans did not dare to come out again after being rebuked by Meng Chuyuan. The audience was especially happy to see Meng Chuyuan’s beautiful counterattack.
After turning off the live-stream, Lu Jinsen turned to look at Meng Chuyuan with admiration in his eyes. “Do you often quarrel with people online?”
“I’m a civilized person. Why would I quarrel with someone?”
Lu Jinsen:
Meng Chuyuan reached out and patted his shoulder to comfort him. “Don’t take their words to heart. Only incompetent people like to find fault with others..”
