Chapter 129: CH 38.2

The current points accumulated by the groups were 5, 1, 3, 4.

The first couple achieved first place in the challenge and obtained 3 additional points after Ju Zhou made Liu Xin remake the breakfast three times on the basis of the food not up to her liking.

The second couple was Lu Gaojie and Cen Nalan. Due to Lu Gaojie’s fear that Cen Nalan would throw a tantrum in front of the nation, he only made the latter peel the skin off a platter of grapes for him.

As for the third couple, Zhuang Qin specified that he would only eat porridge that was 43°C. As Cen Feinuo was afraid the porridge would get cold before he got the thermometer, he ran all the way to the store which earned their team second place in the challenge.

Shang Jing’s team, being last in the challenge, had a point deducted from their total which made them slide down into second place.

Shang Jing: “Our chances at obtaining the mystery big prize seem bleak.”

How could he fail in the aspect he was supposedly best at?! He was smart as a rule but this time a fool.

He Jiang: If we don’t get it, I’ll make a copy of it for you.

“After the bridal room challenge, we will gather for one final game. As for the content of the game, the director is not willing to divulge it to me.”

The flow of the variety show was fixed from the start. As the main investor, He Jiang held the power to add and delete any content.

However, the director was adamant on keeping mum about the final game, determined to keep it as it is. He had even claimed the game to be the segment where he could showcase the original aspirations he had for the show.

Speaking of aspirations, actors have their own aspirations too so He Jiang could only respect the director’s decision and let him be after he guaranteed the game would not put any guest in danger.

The final round would be a test of teamwork. Each person would carry 5 points, totalling to 10 points per team. If they could get first place in that round, the accumulated points they got in the previous rounds would pale in comparison.

That was a common setting in variety shows. Every guest, no matter how badly they were doing in the previous rounds, was to be given a fair chance at winning the final prize. If not, the show would lose the support of the fans of the contestant.

He Jiang assured, “Your hubby has good stamina. If it’s a physical game like breaking corn in half, we should surely get first place.”

Knowing the final round required physical stamina, Shang Jing immediately went for a jog. His keenness to win the mystery big price was sky high.

But it was impossible for the game to be a pure strength competition, especially when there were female guests participating. To make it fair, the game would most likely be structured in a way one could win with some strategic movements.

Considering the nimbless of his fingers, except for when he was gaming, he only had to work on his leg strength.

Without further ago, he changed into his sportswear and stepped out of the room, and that was when he bumped into Ju Zhou. She, too, was out for a jog.

As an ex-national-skiier, there was no doubt her stamina and balance was top-notch.

My biggest competitor is out jogging so what right do I have to rest?

Shang Jing decided to add another kilometer to his jogging goal today.

Since the both of them were not close together, they decided to jog separately and embarked on different jog routes.

Approximately 30 minutes later, as Shang Jing was walking round a bend after being tired out from his jog, he met Ju Zhou again. She was sitting on a long bench by the beach and was talking on her phone, hands-free.

From the sounds of it, the person on the other end of the phone call seemed to be Liu Xin’s mother. She was berating Ju Zhou for making her son make breakfast three times.

“I’ve watched my son’s live broadcast this morning and he was cooking the entire time. How could you bear to let him do that? Are you gone crazy just to win?”

“... We are on a variety show, who would pine for the big mystery prize given in a variety show? It would at most be a ring, necklace or vacation provided by their sponsors. Only the poor would look up to them.”

“Let me tell you, Xin Xin’s public image is one of a warm and loving man but definitely not a hen-pecked husband. The way you made him remake breakfast will definitely put a dent in his career.”

As though she had been through this many times, Ju Zhou started stretching leisurely while acknowledging the words of the other party with occasional ‘En’s.

Plus, Liu Xin’s mother’s talking speed was extremely fast such that Shang Jing had heard everything before he could plug his ears.

Puppy Shang who had his eyes on the mystery prize and was pulling his husband along for the win: “...”

He felt humiliated.

It was also then did Ju Zhou also notice his presence.

“Filming is starting. Auntie, I’ll hang up the phone first.”

“Sorry, I’ve let you seen something embarrassing.”

Shang Jing: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.”

Ju Zhou: “It’s alright. I wouldn’t put the call on speaker if I am afraid of someone listening in.”

Out of curiosity, she asked Shang Jing, “Was it smooth when you met his parents?”

Shang Jing: “I-I’ve only spoken to He Jiang’s father once on the phone.”

Now that he thinks of it, He Jiang might not have meant for him to call his father but to call either Cen Feinuo or Yang Yue.

Tsk… One should never think too much about the past. And how many stupid things did he exactly do in the past?!

“It was on the day He Jiang came home with a stench of alcohol. After questioning him about his drinking buddies, he whipped out his phone and told me to call and ask them myself. That was how I accidentally called his father.”

Ju Zhou guessed, “Did his father tell you He Jiang drank with him?”

Shang Jing’s eyes widened.

Woah! Did I get tricked by his father the very first time we shared a phone call?!

I guess that’s to be expected. After all, he’s the very person who brought up the jerk, He Jiang. He’s really good at keeping things under wraps. 

Ju Zhou: “He Jiang’s parents must be very fond of you.”

If they did not like him, there would be no reason to help their son cover his tracks in front of Shang Jing. Instead, they would make use of every opportunity possible to break them up.
