Chapter 43: Everyone’s Idol (13)
When Chuzheng arrived at their destination, Liu Manman’s group had already arrived.
Yet as Liu Manman saw Chuzheng’s car, she became unhappy.
With one look, one would know that the car was expensive. Later on, Xie Zhou had confirmed her suspicion that the car cost at least ten million dollars.
The production team was definitely not so magnanimous.
All of them drove using the car that was provided by the production team. How could she use another car?
But Liu Manman was not dumb, she knew she had no right to say anything at the moment so she waited for the others to come.
As expected, when Feng Jiao arrived, she immediately became displeased.
“Why is her car different from ours?” Feng Jiao’s loud voice was heard by everyone.
The director immediately made all the cameramen off their cameras.
Chuzheng coldly threw three words. “I have money.”
Feng Jiao was stunned. “…”
The director was stunned. “…”
“You still want to talk about how I spend my money?”
Feng Jiao was stunned. “…”
The director was stunned. “…”
Feng Jiao’s cute face became aggrieved as she looked straight at the director. “Director, how can she do this in the program?”
When the program aired, their way of getting to the destination would be compared to hers and it would clearly differentiate their social status.
The director was at a loss as well. After he found out her actions, he almost could not stand it either. Was she boasting about her fortune by buying a car that cost ten million dollars?
But the rules had not stated she could not do that.
“About that… Our rules did not state she cannot do it so there is no problem with teacher Gu’s method.”
Feng Jiao widened her eyes. “She… She’s cheating!”
Chuzheng folded her arms. “How is it considered cheating if I’m spending my own money?”
“Who knew where your money came from!” Feng Jiao coldly scoffed.
“Anyways, the money is not from you.” Chuzheng expressionlessly said. “You can’t support me.”
Puff—
Du Ming who was watching from the sidelines could not control his laughter.
A normal person indeed could not support a person who could casually spend ten million dollars.
Feng Jiao was so angry that she almost spat out blood. The director quickly stopped her and comforted her for a while. What was happening now!
Hence, Feng Jiao’s provocation had done nothing.
But Feng Jiao disliked Chuzheng even more.
“Everyone arrived at the destination by following the rules. How could she break the rules!” Feng Jiao complained to Wei Jun.
“The rules really didn’t state she couldn’t do that.” They could not care about how others spent their money.
“Which side are you on!?” Feng Jiao glared at Wei Jun. “Can a young person own so much money? Maybe she has a sugar daddy or sugar mummy.”
Beside them, Liu Yuxing warmly reminded her. “Don’t talk about her like this.”
“An unknown artist suddenly came over here, how innocent can she be?” Feng Jiao seemed to take no heed of it.
Wei Jun shrugged her shoulders and did not participate in the discussion.
Liu Yuxing said nothing more too.
Seeing the lack of reaction, Feng Jiao walked to the side in a huff.
Now, they were outside a village. It was late in the evening and the production team wanted everyone to proceed into the village and find their living dormitories.
That was right. They had to find it themselves. If the villagers agreed to let you stay, you could stay.
But if they could not find it, then sorry, they had to sleep in the wild.
Hmm… Out of concern, the production team would give them a tent, but they had to know how to build a tent.
Chuzheng had not planned to find villagers for help as she planned to sleep outside for a night, but Su Jiu proudly ran towards her. “I found a place we can stay in. It’s… over there.”
Chuzheng was speechless. “…”
Su Jiu used his deceptive face and found a family who owned a small bungalow.
The villagers warmly welcomed them in and looked at Su Jiu as though they were looking at their own son.
Chuzheng: “…” He was a cheat and they were a group of shallow people.
Su Jiu… She could not say it out loud, but she just felt that he was pretending.
The villagers prepared their rooms for them and the shooting stopped here. The filming team packed up their things and left. They would only come again tomorrow morning.
Chuzheng was not particular about where she slept. She casually cleaned up and proceeded to sleep.
She had the heroic presence of ‘taking the rough with the smooth.’
Midnight.
There was a sudden soft knock on the door. If Chuzheng was in a deep sleep, she probably could not hear it.
She took the blanket and covered her ears as she had not intended to bother about it.
But the person outside kept knocking.
It made her feel frustrated.
‘How frustrating!’
‘I should get rid of him outside!’
Chuzheng got off the bed and pulled the door open.
The young man hugged a pillow and stood outside. The moonlight shone on him and made his shadow thin and long. He looked helpless with a hint of pity.
“What do you want?” Chuzheng’s voice sounded as though it had turned into ice and had a chill in it.
“I… I’m scared,” Su Jiu softly said.
“Oh.” ‘What has it got to do with me!’ Chuzheng expressionlessly closed the door and fiercely warned. “Don’t knock on my door again.”
Su Jiu was left outside. He blinked his eyes and knocked on the door again.
Dong——
Something hit the door and it made a deep sound.
It was followed by the girl’s icy cold voice which passed through the door panel and flowed into his ears through the night wind. “If you knock on my door again, I will kill you.”
Su Jiu was shocked. “…”
Su Jiu stood outside the door for a while and there was not a single sound heard from the room.
Su Jiu hugged his pillow and walked back to his room. He turned the lights off and curled into a ball on his bed as he hugged his pillow and stared into space.
‘Could it be she really didn’t do it for me?’
‘Then why did she bring me back into the spotlight?’
Su Jiu brought the pillow closer to him. He was a little rash today. If she had let him in today, what would he be facing?
The next day.
When Su Jiu woke up, the weather was still hazy outside. He looked down from the balcony and saw a person sitting in the courtyard in the hazy mist.
Beside her was a member of the production team who was talking to her.
Su Jiu sprawled over the balcony and started to have his imagination run wild. ‘What kind of person was she?’
After the staff member left, the girl below suddenly raised her head and looked towards the balcony. Su Jiu immediately squatted down.
After he squatted down, he came back to his senses. Why did he hide?
Su Jiu cautiously stood up and looked outside, but there was no one in the courtyard.
After the sun had come out, the cameramen came and brought with them today’s mission.
They had to find sufficient supplies in the village as their survival equipment in the mountain two days later.
These supplies are all in the village and could be obtained by helping the villagers or playing games.
Xie Zhou and Liu Manman were the first group to arrive so they had obtained a clue and acquired one equipment.
The other groups had acquired it soon afterward.
Only Chuzheng sat in the courtyard and had no intention of moving.
“Are we not going to find it?” Su Jiu stood beside her and softly asked.
“It’s troublesome.” Even without the equipment, she could still last through the night so there was no need to make a fuss about it.
“But without equipment, what should we do in the shooting afterward? I heard that the mountain is very cold and it is easy to fall sick.”
Chuzheng glanced at him and Su Jiu gave a well-behaved smile while his beautiful eyes seemed to be showing four words. I am very obedient.
“Then, you go and find it.” Chuzheng coldly spat out the six words.
The cameraman was stumped. “…”
Why was this group so scary? Look at movie star Xie’s group, they were a perfect couple! They were interesting to watch yet this group…
He had complicated feelings as he did not know what to describe them as.
