Chapter 43: Get Out Here
From An Qi’s tone, she had a very favorable impression of Hu Yue from their girl group.
Xuan Xia also didn’t want to casually over speculate about others, mainly because she wasn’t familiar with An Qi’s group, didn’t know how many members were in it, let alone what their group’s top popularity member Hu Yue looked like, so how could she make a casual judgment.
She just asked: “Do you have a good relationship with Hu Yue from your group?”
An Qi smiled and generously shared a secret: “Actually, this variety show resource was given to me by Hu Yue.”
Originally, the dating show had settled on Hu Yue as the guest, and the management company also thought it was a good exposure opportunity, but Hu Yue refused.
Because of this, Hu Yue and her agent were unhappy for two days. Later, the agent compromised and tried to fight for someone else from the group to take it on, but when deciding who would take it, Hu Yue specifically designated to give this resource to her.
Otherwise, based on their group’s ranking, such a resource would absolutely not come to An Qi.
Xuan Xia wasn’t familiar with the resource allocation rules for girl groups, but she knew the entertainment industry had always been a place of uneven distribution.
With Hu Yue doing this, An Qi would indeed remember this favor.
An Qi glanced at Xie Yun and the others who were trying hard to dominate the camera shots, and sighed: “If Hu Yue had taken it, the current script would probably revolve around her.”
Xuan Xia followed her gaze, not interested at all in those grabbing camera shots.
Retracting her line of sight, she no longer mentioned Hu Yue, “Then think again, is there anything else?”
An Qi shook her head, completely clueless.
She really couldn’t think of anything else.
Alright.
Xuan Xia felt it was better not to continue forcing wild guesses, and honestly wait until after the live broadcast ended to seek help from an expert.
***
After lunch, the program group first arranged two small games, “You Say I Guess” and “Transmit Without Distortion,” as afternoon warm-up activities.
Starting from these two small games, the program group began dividing into male and female groups.
This instantly perked up the audience who had been getting sleepy watching the eating broadcast.
After all, who was paired with whom still hadn’t gotten an answer.
But the program group was very sly, with the ultimate goal of deceiving the audience; after the two games, besides a big mishmash, it was unclear if there was any hint on the official CP, but several weird CPs emerged.
However, among the weird CPs, the hottest one right now was still the pair of Xuan Xia and An Qi.
Following their hot chat dodging the camera during lunch time, during the afternoon games, the two were almost inseparable.
【I declare, our Qi Miao Summer is the sweetest CP of the year! Go for it, Qi Miao Summer! Misses, walk the flower road together!】
【Sweat drops. Do you weird CP shippers have to be this weird, already thinking up a CP name?】
【Not just that! Just now, our Qi Miao Summer has already opened a topic community, welcome everyone to join and play!!】
【……】
【…………】
【Support official CP, and report all you weird CP communities later!】
【As if you know which pair is the official CP. Our Qi Miao Summer is going to take down the official and become official! Misses, charge!】
【…………】
Seeing the data peak steadily rising again since the end of the lunch break, the preview footage also entered the final game segment.
The guests followed the host to another area of the stadium.
This area was set up as a boxing arena.
It was clear this would involve physical confrontation.
The host pointed at the arena and said to the guests: “Let me introduce this to everyone, this is the arena.”
As expected, he got white eyes from all the guests.
But the host didn’t care at all, chuckling as he continued: “But everyone can rest assured, our game isn’t boxing. I assume none of you know boxing, right.”
After bantering a couple lines, the host explained the specific game content: “Our game is called, Come Out So I Can Give You a Taste of Your Own Medicine.”
【Sweat drops. Such a long game name.】
【Come Out So I Can Give You a Taste of Your Own Medicine. So is it a fight?】
【Sounds a bit aggressive, wicked person says: You all better start fighting for me.】
“The game has two ways to play. The first way is, Come Out. The second way is, I’ll Give You a Taste of Your Own Medicine.”
“Later, balloons will be tied to everyone, and they will confront pairwise, but only same gender against same gender. Male guests can’t bully female guests.”
“That’s a must.” The host’s partner chimed in, “Then let me explain how to play specifically, and the difference between the two ways.”
“First, how to play.”
“Later we’ll draw lots, and the one drawn can choose a way to play themselves. Come Out means actively initiating an attack. I’ll Give You a Taste of Your Own Medicine means defending.”
“The former lets you choose your opponent, and the two can make an agreement. The loser fulfills that agreement. The latter lets you make a wish to the program group, any wish about the upcoming recording is fine.”
“If your wish doesn’t interest everyone, you directly win, and the program group will fulfill your wish. If a guest thinks the wish content suits them too, they can step up to challenge, and if they win, the program group will give that wish to the winner.”
After the host finished explaining, he deliberately said: “Those choosing to make a wish, be careful oh, if your wish is too good, it might attract challengers to give you a taste of your own medicine.”
“But if your wish isn’t good enough, or you’re deliberately pranking, there might be no challengers, and you’ll be the one who ends up unlucky.” The partner took over.
The two went back and forth, finishing the last part of the rules, then asked the guests: “Everyone understands, right? No other questions?”
Everyone indicated they understood, no other questions.
Actually, this part of the game rules was clearly written in the script, only the audience didn’t know.
Although the game rules were known long ago, the upcoming draw and choice of play were truly random, with no intervention from the program group.
The first one drawn to go on stage was surprisingly Xie Yun.
The host asked her: “So, player number one, which way do you plan to choose.”
Xie Yun clearly had her choice ready, saying without hesitation: “Xuan Xia, come out.”
Host: “…”
Xuan Xia: “…”
【Hm? I smell gunpowder.】
【Xie Yun so straightforward? Does Xuan Xia really have beef with her?】
【Suddenly back to the start of the live broadcast.】
【Hahaha dying of laughter, Xie Yun wouldn’t still be holding a grudge about the male guests clapping, right?】
Xuan Xia really hadn’t expected Xie Yun to directly call her out.
She thought her targeting had ended as the live broadcast time passed.
She didn’t know what agreement she would make.
Xuan Xia had just stepped onto the arena, not yet steady, when she heard Xie Yun say: “Xuan Xia, if I win, switch me with Zhou Shiqing to form the CP, you withdraw, any objections?”
“…”
Everyone: “…”
Can this game be played like this?
