I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 424: Worried Some People Might Get Psychologically Twisted from Holding Back

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Worried Some People Might Get Psychologically Twisted from Holding Back

In the next five minutes of "criminal free statement" time, Shi Yuhuai remained expressionless and silent.

The others laughed wildly.

After they finished laughing, the communicator Li Yang raised the second question.

"Brother Huai mentioned it was a fan, right? Then how did it get miscommunicated as waving to the director asking to go to the bathroom?"

Mu Qiu, eyes closed, nitpicked: "Please use the director’s nickname: The Crescent Moon Outside the Window."

"...Hahahahahahaha can you please stop saying that, it’s too funny!"

The entire hall was filled with his loud laughter, along with some people’s noises expressing their thoughts through their nostrils since they couldn’t speak.

The director didn’t want to talk.

The laughter was too long-lasting. Jiang Lu remembered Li Yang personally saying "If there’s a chance, definitely interrupt their speeches" and applied this principle indiscriminately to Li Yang himself, trying to find the source of "mutation" amidst the laughter.

"Third spot goes to Qiu Shuang. Wei Yi, how did you understand Qiu Shuang’s performance?"

Wei Yi, unsurprisingly, got nervous again: "I didn’t understand; Brother Qiu Shuang told me to just imitate his actions."

Seeing Jiang Lu raise an eyebrow, he hurriedly added: "But I do understand, even though I haven’t performed yet, I will learn diligently!"

"No need to be so nervous," Jiang Lu responded with amusement, "I’m just inquiring, I’m not asking you to perform and submit homework on the spot."

Wei Yi nodded, his ears a bit red under the tousled hair.

Then—

"Wei Yi violated the Control Lock regulations once, deducting one point!"

Wei Yi widened his eyes, unable to believe, looking at the director, then turning to Jiang Lu after receiving a helpless look.

Brother Jiang Lu...

Wasn’t it intentional?

Jiang Lu truly didn’t do it on purpose.

He coughed, his deep voice not at all awkward: "Sorry, just pretend you didn’t hear anything from now on."

Wei Yi drooped his head in hurt.

Since the issue probably wasn’t with Qiu Shuang and Wei Yi, that leaves... Shu Ran.

Shu Ran hadn’t spoken in quite a while, now Jiang Lu was staring at her. She silently, resignedly, retrieved a paper hidden beneath the daybed cushion some time ago.

"I really didn’t... although I embellished your and the director’s story a bit based on Wei Yi’s content, I genuinely wrote about fanning."

To prevent disbelief, she even showed the paper to the camera.

She previously learned to write to avoid criticism on show, not afraid of cameras zooming in.

Everyone gathered around the sheet and indeed, it was written about fanning.

Shu Ran is the writer, so as performers adhere clearly to content, there should be no issues.

It depends on how well the subsequent performer understands.

So among the remaining, they bypassed Guan Yu, directly looking at Li Yang.

Li Yang leaned back to evade their gaze: "Why are you looking at me?! My performance and voice recitation were done right under everyone’s eyes, absolutely no issue, okay?!"

"During the game, even if there were issues, you couldn’t be pointed out immediately," Shu Ran quickly responded.

"He truly wasn’t the root cause," Jiang Lu, holding back laughter, pretending not to hear while absolving Li Yang’s blame, said: "Given your sequential information distortion, even though his performance was a bit exaggerated, it fortunately didn’t deviate entirely, and he indeed mentioned the word fan."

Thus, the third last was right, it had to be...

"I admit fault."

Before further questioning, Mu Qiu immediately raised both hands in surrender, looking pained and regretful.

"I only just realized it was my fault. But I want to excuse, not, I want to explain. I saw... I mean I imagined in my mind the actions described by Li Yang, truly looked like waving.

I thought Li Yang’s understanding of Sister Guan Yu’s performance might have a slight deviation, so I took the liberty to make tiny changes."

Thumb pinching the fingertip of the little finger, indicating really only a tiny bit.

The attitude was sincere, expression genuine, tone earnest.

Yet nobody believed her.

Wei Yi and Cheng Zhirang might still retain some trust, the former due to being new, the latter just out of uncommon affection.

Shu Ran concluded directly: "Alright, it’s Mu Qiu’s fault, she was deliberately disruptive."

Mu Qiu: "I didn’t! Heaven’s witness, I really just went a little too overboard!"

Shu Ran didn’t believe, replied with a cold smile: "I trusted your lie. Just tell, who hasn’t you fooled on this show?"

"Probably..."

She held her chin and thought for a bit, then shut up.

Seems she fooled everyone, whether Cheng Zhirang was ever fooled or not, was uncertain, but didn’t dare definitively say never.

"No words left? Good, a bit self-aware at least."

Mu Qiu pouted.

Seeing they almost finished self-checking, the director announced the final result.

"Shu Ran’s team game result: compliance percentage sixty percent. Control Lock deduction result: Guan Yu deducts one point, Shi Yuhuai deducts two points, Qiu Shuang deducts one point, Mu Qiu deducts one point, Wei Yi deducts one point. Shu Ran’s team incurs no deduction."

Shu Ran stood tall.

Like a 70s-80s woman who birthed ten male twins, profoundly influenced by feudal ideology.

Compared to her, Guan Yu felt utterly deflated, features drooped, sighing repeatedly.

The three squeezed in the middle, Mu Qiu, indifferent, shrank back into the safe zone.

Time for the next group’s game.

Director: "Given the remaining two group leaders are former MVPs with cheats, the order this time gets decided by the two leaders on which group goes next through rock-paper-scissors.

Additionally, the show received feedback from viewers; to avoid guests being mentally distorted, Control Lock temporarily deactivates for three minutes between the end of first game and start of second group. Guests may move freely."

"Mentally distorted..." Li Yang instantly turned to Guan Yu, "Sister Guan Yu, are they subtly implying you?"

Guan Yu rolled her eyes, then opened her mouth wide, letting out a long "ahhhhh."

As if someone just unlocked her mouth and began expressing.

"Thanks to all your suggestions! You’re truly angelic babies! You really should try, being forced to not speak is really uncomfortable! Especially when these people cannot express their incredibly interesting insights! During this uncomfortable period, I feel this show truly needs me!"

A breathless explosion, rapid words, bomb-like, overwhelmed Mu Qiu’s auditory system.

"Detected, if held in a bit longer, might genuinely mentally distort."

Guan Yu didn’t mind at all, eyes closed, feeling nature’s beauty, arms spread to embrace air, exclaimed: "The feeling of being able to talk is wonderful."

"You choose paper, right? I choose scissors, I won, you go first."

Guan Yu opened her eyes wide: "..."
