Chapter 80: The House Selection Crisis
The smile on Yu Yao’s face gradually faded. She glanced at Yu Wan and snorted lightly as she said, “Third Brother also said just now, right? We’re recording a show now, we’re not at your house. You think you can choose whatever house you want? If that were the case, I want to choose a big seaside villa. Do you think the production team can move a villa into this small village?”
Yu Wan revealed an aggrieved expression. She pouted and said pitifully, “Sister Yu Yao, I only asked you a question. Why are you reacting so strongly? I won’t dare to talk to you anymore.”
“That’s good.” Yu Yao raised her eyebrows and pointed in the director’s direction. “Then don’t talk to me anymore. Let’s hear what the director has to say.”
The executive director acted like he didn’t notice the verbal exchange between the guests as he continued to announce the rules of the game with a calm expression. After reciting the scores of the guests from the last show, he announced that the first place winner would choose the house that they liked.
After Yu Wan heard the score ranking, she stood there in a daze and looked at Yu Jue in disbelief. “Third Brother, how could our group have so few points? We’re actually at the bottom!”
Yu Jue laughed awkwardly. “Well, it’s all because of me. I didn’t complete the production team’s mission properly.”
Seeing that Yu Jue did not want to talk about it, Yu Wan hurriedly consoled him kindly, “It’s okay, Third Brother. Even if we’re the last group to choose a house, we might not necessarily choose the worst one. Perhaps the guests in front will choose a house that we don’t want?”
Yu Wan did not lower her voice on purpose. In this empty small square, almost everyone heard what she said. The other groups of guests had strange looks on their faces, especially the celebrity members. They were in the entertainment industry and were used to seeing people stepping on others to climb higher.
Based on Yu Jue’s popularity and his extraordinary family background, almost no one in the industry would make things difficult for him. On the variety show, no one knew what his temper was like and whether he was easy to get along with, so they did not dare to offend him directly.
Everyone heard that Yu Wan wanted a house with better conditions. Initially, if they chose a house according to the rules set by the production team, the guests in the first few groups would definitely choose somewhere with better conditions. They would leave the house with the worst conditions to the last group. This was the effect that the show wanted.
However, when the other groups of guests heard Yu Wan say that she wanted a house with better conditions, they had different thoughts and were all wondering if they should give Yu Jue some face.
Some people planned to leave a good impression on Yu Jue and use this opportunity to build a relationship with him. Others were annoyed by their group’s method of using their status to suppress others.
In first place was an older female star. This female star had used her figure to climb the ranks when she was younger. When she got older, she slowly transformed and began to have a few works that had good reviews.
This time, the person who came to participate in the variety show with her was her mother. Her mother was already over 70 years old. Although her body was still considered strong, it was still worrying.
The female celebrity went forward and chose the best house without hesitation. This house was a two-story small villa.
She smiled at the other groups of guests and said, “Based on my past experience participating in all kinds of variety shows, when I filmed the previous episode, I already knew that the final score would be very important, so I worked hard to obtain high scores. Now, I’m going to harvest the results of my hard work.”
She held the photo of the small villa and waved it in front of the other groups of guests. Although she looked very smug, it did not make people hate her. “I want to choose this two-story small villa. My mother and I will definitely live very happily in the next three days!”
The two groups of guests in second and third place were two young idols, a man and a woman. They could be considered Yu Jue’s juniors, so they were always respectful and humble when facing him.
After the guests from the second group went on stage, they saw that there was indeed a very romantic little house in the woods among the remaining three waiting houses. Although there wasn’t a beautiful little garden in front of it like Yu Wan had wanted, there was a swing in the yard of the little house, making it look very beautiful.
The guest from this group did not choose the house in the woods. Instead, they chose a smaller farmhouse courtyard. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋n૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com
When the third group of guests went forward to choose their rooms, the executive director was only left with the house in the woods and a dilapidated house that had half its floor collapsed. From the pictures, one could even see a few deep cracks in the walls of the dilapidated house, making people suspect that this house might collapse at any time.
The guest who came forward to choose a house was a young girl. She looked back at her father, who was standing where he was, waiting for her. She had a struggling expression on her face, and finally, her hand slowly moved towards the picture of the dilapidated house.
At this moment, Yu Yao suddenly spoke, “We’re just choosing houses, why are we wasting so much time? I didn’t eat breakfast in the morning. It’s almost three in the afternoon now. Why don’t we hurry up and finish this segment?”
