CH 18.4

Do You Still Hate Her? 08 – Don’t you guys have any bottom line?

[If we say that Yu Su in cross-dressing is a charming beauty, Director Song is a cool and elegant lady, Ye Lu is a lively sweetheart, Xu Ze is a gentle moonlight, Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan are melancholic handsome boy and lovely young master, they are simply perfect.]

[I initially came to watch a joke, but why do they all look so good? Are they naturally good-looking or are the makeup artists amazing?]

The program team, curious about the commotion, asked, “So, in Teacher Shang’s eyes, is Teacher Xu the most beautiful today?”

Shang Lu pondered for a moment and replied, “Not really. If I have to say, it would still be Yu Su, although I think his original eyes were more beautiful. Xu Ze can be second.”

Ye Lu, who didn’t even make it to second place : “?”

[Hahaha, Yu Su is forever top 1 in Shang Lu’s heart]

[Regardless of gender, Yu Su is the aesthetic ideal in Shang Lu’s mind, hahaha.]

Yu Su, who was nominated again, was stunned as he looked at the people in front of him.

No one made any mocking remarks because of Shang Lu’s praise. It seemed like complimenting his face was a normal thing, and nobody found it strange anymore.

This feeling… is very special.

In a short time, the makeup is already done. They are also going to the restaurant where the shooting is done for a brief employee training before preparing to go on duty.

The program team has also assigned groups: Ye Lu and Yu Su together, Lin Yanyan and Shang Lu in one group, and Song Zeqian and Xu Ze in another group.

Lin Yanyan said, “They are all so tall, especially Yu Su. It’s too easy to stand out.”

Shang Lu replied, “Good thing you know. Stay away from them later for safety.”

[Shang Lu, you’re really smart.]

[Shang Lu : (disgusted emoji)]

Indeed, it was the case because of their height. When they got off the car, they attracted the attention of many passersby.

Fortunately, the production team provided them with masks, otherwise, they might have been recognized by the pedestrians before Jiang Jing’s arrival.

Jiang Jing’s car had arrived. First, Ye Lu and Yu Su were responsible for bowing and welcoming her at the entrance, then guiding her to her seat.

Yu Su remained silent throughout and followed along. Ye Lu strained his voice to sound more feminine. Fortunately, he’s the main vocalist, so he had some skills in this aspect. It didn’t sound too off, barely fooling anyone.

However, after Jiang Jing took her seat, she flipped through the menu and instead of hurriedly placing an order, she asked somewhat curiously, “Are all the waiters in your restaurant this tall?”

“This is the specialty of our restaurant. Female waitresses need to be tall, while male waiters need to be short,” Ye Lu said, pointing to Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan not far away. He continued, “You see, those two men are shorties.”

“I see,” Jiang Jing nodded in understanding.

[Hahaha, Ye Lu, why are you talking nonsense? Well said, but next time, try not to shake your voice!]

[Is Ye Lu trying to expose Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan? I can see through it!]

Sure enough, when Jiang Jing didn’t fall for the trap, Ye Lu directly suggested, “Madam, we have something else to attend to. How about letting those two male waiters take your order?”

“Either is fine,” Jiang Jing replied nonchalantly, flipping through the menu.

Ye Lu immediately led Yu Su and hurriedly left, walking towards Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan, saying, “Hurry up, you go and take her order.”

Lin Yanyan & Shang Lu : “?”

The program team also gave the same instructions through the earpiece.

Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan had no choice but to approach Jiang Jing. Ye Lu felt like he had temporarily escaped the crisis and even made faces at them from a distance, taunting them.

Without raising her head, Jiang Jing asked, “Do you have any recommendations?”

Lin Yanyan casually answered a few dishes in a hoarse voice.

But Lin Yanyan doesn’t have Ye Lu’s skills, even if she tried hard, her voice still sounded obvious.

Strangely, Jiang Jing showed no signs of abnormality and continued flipping through the menu.

Shang Lu’s gaze fell on Jiang Jing’s face, carefully examining her expression.

At this moment, Lin Yanyan couldn’t bear it anymore. She patted Shang Lu’s shoulder to indicate that she really couldn’t continue and then ran away.

Jiang Jing flipped another page of the menu and asked, “Do you have any recommended drinks here?”

Shang Lu pointed to the menu, without any disguise in his voice, and said directly, “These fruit wines have low alcohol content, especially these two is quite popular.”

Jiang Jing nodded, then added a glass of fruit wine to the ordered dishes and handed the menu to Shang Lu.

Shang Lu took the menu and handed it to the real waiter, then walked towards Lin Yanyan and made a direct judgment, saying, “It’s a game within a game, and Jiang Jing knows it’s us. It’s also arranged by the program team.”

Shang Lu had been observing since Jiang Jing entered the room and naturally noticed that she never looked up or made eye contact with any of them, and completely ignored the voices that she should have been familiar with.

Jiang Jing is an award-winning actress. She is famous for her keen observation and imitation skills, which allow her to perform well in roles. The voices of the two male waiters were strange, with one of them having a distinctly feminine voice. Even if Jiang Jing didn’t recognize their voices, she should have found it strange. All of her actions seem very deliberate.

[!!!]

[I knew it, why didn’t Shang Lu’s voice change at all? So she did it on purpose!]

[Shang Lu, truly the official “Wisest” of this show! She’s really smart!]

Lin Yanyan was stunned for a moment. After listening to what Shang Lu had just said, she also thought it made sense, but she still had some concerns: “You just tested her like that? If she recognized you unlike what you thought, you would have been eliminated!”

Shang Lu looked at Lin Yanyan and said seriously, “Then I’ll quit.”

[Either figure out the truth or get eliminated, that’s you, Shang Lu.]

[Every time I think Shang Lu is getting serious, why does she start messing around again? Ugh.]

Lin Yanyan trusted Shang Lu very much, but she couldn’t quite understand: “But why would they do this?”

Shang Lu replied, “The purpose of the production team is to see our efforts to hide our identities while also capturing Senior Jiang Jing senior pretending not to notice our flaws, creating a discrepancy in information on both sides. This leads to a reversal of the truth and becomes a source of amusement.”

The production team was frustrated but couldn’t refute Shang Lu’s direct revelation because it was all true.

The barrage of comments became very interested.

[Hahaha, Shang Lu, why did you suddenly start exposing the behind-the-scenes secrets while playing?]

[Others: in a hurry to win the game. Shang Lu : you have to learn to see things from the perspective of the program team, and then you become a God.]

[Shang Lu frowned, and the program team’s scheme was exposed.]

[Director’s face is almost black, can you not say anymore, Shang Lu?]

[No! I want to hear! Shang Lu, say more!]
