I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 314: Connecting with Qing Rong
The voice was so ridiculous that everyone who was about to choose their own task couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Brother Cheng, this thing is mocking you all!"
"How could it not be completed? You didn’t receive twenty?"
"This thing can laugh???"
"It’s all hahaha and hehehe, why is it so shady?"
At this moment, Guan Yu, the most unfortunate person in the room, laughed heartily:
"So what if you chose tasks? You still didn’t complete them? The electronic voice is mocking you guys hahaha... Wait, this voice sounds a bit familiar?"
The director chuckled and explained, "Its failed task notification sound is synthesized from your laughter, using material from the first four episodes."
Mu Qiu looked at him, bewildered, and listened carefully.
"I really didn’t hear myself; it’s all Sister Guan Yu and Li Yang’s voices."
Li Yang struggled a bit: "Eighty percent is Sister Guan Yu’s voice."
Guan Yu: "...What do you mean, do you want to publicly execute me? Can’t I just laugh more happily every day?"
"Sure," the director replied sincerely, "The production team thought it would be a waste not to use such material."
Guan Yu: "Just tell me, what other materials did the production team use to create weird stuff?"
The director looked around at everyone with a mysterious smile.
"You’ll find out."
Mu Qiu suddenly had a bad feeling.
She couldn’t help but recall her performance in earlier episodes... It seems she contributed quite a bit to the laughter.
Will it all be used in later shows and publicly executed again?
Some people who "contributed a lot" were a bit worried for a moment.
Cheng Zhirang waited for the strange laughter to stop, then turned around and said two words to Fu Ran and Tang Zi.
Anyone could see that Cheng Zhirang and Fu Ran really worked hard to complete this task.
To increase the task completion rate, Cheng Zhirang even used both hands to hold buckets and never stopped. Fu Ran was also continuously scooping and throwing balls, his earnest look was seen by every audience member.
So who is to blame for this failure?
Cheng Zhirang didn’t blame anyone, he simply said calmly that it’s okay to fail the task, everyone should go and take on individual tasks, it’s best to aim for personal challenges.
Personal challenges might be easier.
The three of them gathered to talk, and the two men stood a bit far from Tang Zi, with an obvious sense of avoiding suspicion.
It’s unclear how Tang Zi feels right now.
Shu Ran withdrew her gaze and happily chose her second task.
Mu Qiu glanced at them, just casually, not paying too much attention.
Using her girlfriend status to demand that he be disrespectful or avoidant towards others, she thought once was enough. More often, it might just cause the other person to feel repulsion.
She focused her attention on the big screen.
Out of thirty option cards, four have already been revealed with only two linked to ingredients.
If they were to continue waiting for others to choose first, revealing the ingredients behind each option card, it would take too long.
So it’s best for everyone to choose their own tasks quickly, finishing all thirty tasks.
Then, choose more tasks corresponding to the ingredients you want to eat.
Considering this logic, Mu Qiu randomly selected a task from the second row.
Sect Communicator.
Electronic voice announcement: "Personal challenge! Please dial the second-to-last contact before now and complete the task card’s call content to pass!"
Make a phone call?
Others in the room looked at her.
Cheng Zhirang’s gaze carried concern.
In variety shows, phone call segments can easily become one of the top ten sources of gossip.
Numerous artist relationships, fake intimacy for hype, fabricated experiences, etc., were all exposed from this stage.
So some shows love using such scenarios, but artists are often afraid to encounter such segments. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
However, no matter how afraid one might be, since the segment exists, one can only find ways to minimize self-exposure risks.
Fortunately, whether intentionally or not, the production team gave the guest completing this task a way out.
That is, the camera wasn’t aimed at her, so the audience couldn’t see her phone screen.
Thus, they couldn’t know if the number she dialed was the second contact; in short, she could freely choose whom to call.
Mu Qiu’s phone was with Cheng Zhirang’s assistant earlier, but now it was brought by the female assistant assigned to Mu Qiu.
Their emergency handling was good; the cameras shouldn’t have captured the moment they exchanged phones.
Mu Qiu unlocked her phone, calmly recalling the call records from yesterday to today.
The last call was to Cheng Zhirang, the second-to-last...
Was to Qing Rong.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said to the camera, "It’s a friend of mine. Shall I dial out now? Where’s the task card?"
Director: "The task card will be delivered to you after the other party answers the call."
"So secretive??? It won’t be something weird, right?"
Guan Yu: "Maybe it’s asking you how to play mahjong?"
"Are you sick? Mahjong chat?"
Mu Qiu furrowed her brows, unable to guess what kind of call content the production team had prepared, so she could only dial the number first.
The connection sound came from the speakers on both sides of the big screen, and because she was wearing a mic, the call sound was quite clear.
After three beeps, the other party answered the call.
A lazy, smiling voice repeated on the beach.
"Hello? It’s me as the second-to-last contact?"
The voice was distinct, different from all the male guests present, so as soon as the voice came out, Guan Yu and the others’ eyes glowed green with interest.
"The voice sounds so good."
"A sort of post-meal drowsiness feeling."
"You’re describing sedatives, not a voice, right?"
"...Shut up, shut up, listen to Mu Qiu talk."
Mu Qiu glanced at them, relaxed her brows, adjusted her mic, and said to Qing Rong, "Are you watching the show live? That’s good, you can cooperate a bit."
"Cooperate with what?"
"The task card is about to be handed to me, wait a moment... By the way, are you free to take the call now? It might take a while."
Qing Rong laughed, "Aside from writing, I’m just an idle person, I have plenty of time."
Mu Qiu also smiled: "You’re idle because you closed the door for three months, right? The task card has arrived."
So they’re in the same field.
Four people who knew a bit of the backstory casually glanced at Cheng Zhirang, their expressions subtle, touching their nose tips, their gossip souls ablaze.
Oh no, it’s only three people; Shi Yuhuai isn’t part of the gossip stats.

Actually, even if Qiuqiu is in a relationship, she’s rational. The kind that even controls the number of times she acts coquettish.
But Brother Cheng, he continuously shows Qiuqiu that with him, she can be unreasonable many times, countless times, and give him all her irrationality.
They are the most in sync, the most fitting couple in the world.
