The shooting location for《Unfathomable Challenge》was Jiang City. Siyu and Ji Lin were invited together as the special guests, so after they let Director Liang know they flew back together to Jiang City. This time, the program’s crew rented a whole villa in the suburbs as the shooting location. As soon as they got off the plane, the crew sent a group of staff to follow them with cameras.
The lead was a girl with a lean figure. When the girl saw Siyu, she beamed with happiness. She secretly took out the magazine that Siyu modeled in at that time and begged her to sign an autograph. After she got her wish fulfilled, she joyfully took back the magazine with the greatest care and looked at Ji Lin, “Ji-ge, you guys have finally come. All the others are already here, we’re just waiting for you two.”
Ji Lin stared at her with a passion similar to that of an ordinary fan, “Do you like Siyu-jie very much?”
That girl complacency replied, “That’s right. I’ve followed Siyu from the very beginning. But after seeing the real person, she’s actually more beautiful than the photo.”
Siyu who was complimented by her felt a bit bashful. Who expected that her silly younger brother also nodded earnestly in complete agreement, “that’s right!”
The two fellow braised fish diehard fans looked at each other with eyes brimming with tears and they chatted together excitedly. Finally, the cameraman reminded them that they were going to be late. The group hurriedly got into the car sent by the program’s crew and rushed over to the villa.
Because it was a documentary of their journey (to the shooting location), that girl acted as a temporary host and asked a few minor questions to liven up the atmosphere. At last, she jokingly asked, “Everyone said that our program could also be called ‘The Friendship Ruiner’. If you guys become enemies, are you willing to hurt each other?”
Ji Lin confidently opened his mouth, “I think that Siyu-jie and I will surely be in the same group. I don’t need to worry about this because I’ve never thought about it!”
Siyu said with a smile, “ It depends. I will let others die if I can live.”
The contrast between Ji Lin’s confident expression and Siyu’s up-to-the-heaven expression was very striking. The girl who acted as the host couldn’t help laughing, “Ji-ge, you [formal] should take things easy. Siyu-jie doesn’t seem that she’ll be merciful to you.”
The car quickly arrived at the destination. The girl led them inside while introducing the other guests to them. At first, everything was okay, but when the name “Chu Shuangyan” was read aloud, Ji Lin couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.
Siyu was also stunned. This Chu Shuangyan… isn’t she the supporting female lead of the《Superstar’s Pampered Marriage》? She actually also participated in this program?
Speaking of Chu Shuangyan, her family and the Ji family were on friendly terms. She and Ji Lin could be regarded as childhood sweethearts. Duan Rulan had always been fond of her since she was a child. She [DRL] always had the thought of arranging a marriage between the two families. Unfortunately, Ji Lin was totally indifferent to Chu Shuangyan and even a bit fed up with this stubborn girl with princess disease, rejecting her didn’t work at all. Even when Ji Lin ran away from home and entered the entertainment circle, it was partly because Chu Shuangyan and Duan Rulan forced him to do so.
After that, in order to pursue Ji Lin, Chu Shuangyan also entered the entertainment circle. Now, it’s the era of public personas. With her sweet appearance, Chu Shuangyan’s princess disease nature actually attracted a lot of loyal fans. She always liked to draw attention to herself. She once publicly said that Ji Lin was her ideal type. Just because she had her family as her backer, her journey had always been smooth sailing.
“This troublemaker is actually here too…. How come no one informed me?” Ji Lin asked with a dark face.
The girl who led them was a bit embarrassed, “Something came up for Film Empress Guan and she couldn’t make it, so the program’s crew replaced her with someone else. Because it happened suddenly, I didn’t have the time to tell you [formal]…..” and the reason why they used Chu Shuangyan, was firstly because she strongly demanded it, and secondly because there’s content to discuss!!
Chu Shuangyan’s love for Ji Lin was already something that’s half-public. If you put these two people together, they can hype things up. The program’s crew naturally looked favorably on such a profitable deal.
Since they all have arrived there, of course, they couldn’t just give up and leave. Ji Lin, with a heavy look, walked into the villa with Siyu without saying a word.
The other six guests had already been waiting in the living room. A sweet girl in a puffy dress caught sight of Ji Lin and called out “A-Lin” joyfully while looking like she wanted to stand up and run to him.
Ji Lin complained incessantly. He really didn’t like this kind of spoiled girl. He said in a low voice, “Jie, let’s go, it’s all over if you are pestered by her.”
He said while half pushing and half pulling Siyu, bypassed half of the living room, and sat at the corner farthest away from Chu Shuangyan.
Chu Shuangyan glared at Siyu. If her glare could turn into knives, Siyu’s heart would have already been pierced through and died. She wanted to sit there, but the seats on the sofa were already full. All the people here were all influential stars. In addition, the camera had been recording. Chu Shuangyan couldn’t do something out of the line, so she could only sit back to her original seat reluctantly.
The innocent Siyu received that trouble due to her own making. She once again regretted how she made such a melodramatic comic. However, no matter what she said, now it’s already too late. She pretended that she couldn’t feel Chu Shuangyan’s gaze on her and looked around. The program’s crew had specially decorated the villa. The furniture inside was changed into a medieval theme, making it seem like an ancient castle.
Siyu was curiously looking around when suddenly the person next to her hand over a cup of warm water while softly saying, “I often heard Director Liang said that he had found a treasure recently. It must be you, right? You must be fatigued by the long journey, here drink a cup of warm water to moisten your throat.”
Siyu turned her head towards the voice and saw the handsome guy who was sitting next to her. His facial features were very gentle, the type that looked like a modest gentleman and easily made people have a favorable impression towards them. Seeing that Siyu was looking at him with some hesitation, he smiled understandingly and took the lead to introduce himself, “ I am Wen Yuan. Perhaps this is our first time meeting, but I have heard a lot of stories about you.”
Wen Yuan? That youngest Film Emperor?
Siyu had heard about this person. She had always thought that it wouldn’t be easy to meet with such a person, and yet today she found out that it was completely the opposite. Wen Yuan had a temperament that made people unconsciously want to be close to him. But to Siyu, the most important thing was that——the extreme good luck that Wen Yuan had. It was very good and almost on par with Ji Lin’s luck.
“What did you hear about me?”, Siyu, who sat between the two people with the most prosperous luck, was so comfortable that she was close to squinting her eyes. She took a sip from the cup that Wen Yuan handed over. Her eyes curved into a crescent moon and she asked that in a good mood.
From Wen Yuan’s point of view, Siyu’s expression right now looked exactly like a satisfied cat. It’s just a pity that her complexion was too pale. It made the people who looked at her feel pity.
Wen Yuan unconsciously lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing Siyu, “They said that your health isn’t good but you dare to stay in the crew all day long for shooting. Simply like you don’t want your life anymore.”
Siyu sized him up and down, then said with a smile, “I think that there must be people who risk their life even more than me. Are you complimenting me or insulting me?”
This girl’s temperament was very straightforward. This was Wen Yuan’s first impression of her. She’s sick but not weak. She’s pitiful but she didn’t need pity from others. Wen Yuan rarely saw a girl like this. Moreover, Siyu’s earnest attitude towards filming had won a great impression from him.
“Of course it’s a compliment. “ Wen Yuan said, “It’s rare to have a chance to be on the same show, this must be fate. I hope when we’re drawing lots to divide the groups later, we can be teammates.”
Originally Ji Lin had been sitting quietly at the side. However, once this sentence was said, Young Master Ji Lin couldn’t bear it any longer. What teammates?! Jiejie could only be in the same group with him!
“Say Wen Yuan, that’s about enough. Don’t use your method to coax your fans on Siyu-jie. Is she someone you can coax?” Ji Lin looked like he discovered a pig that potentially wanted to dig his Chinese cabbage. He stared at Wen Yuan with very vigilant eyes and solemnly said, “just you wait, you’re destined to meet but not fated to be together!”
