Chapter 145 Three Unlucky People
Soon, the director took out a box.
Except for a fist-sized hole at the top, the box was completely sealed, and no one could see what was inside.
However, as soon as the director took the box out, some people questioned it.
'Could there be something fishy going on? Who knows what kind of tricks are inside this box?'
'I suspect so too. Maybe it's already divided into sections, and everyone's just following the script…'
Fortunately, the production team had foreseen that this generation of netizens were not easily fooled. They were all carefully watching the show with magnifying glasses. In order to avoid suspicion, they had already planned their countermeasures.
The director turned the box upside down and shook it vigorously in his hands.
"Just to be fair, let me show you first. This box is empty, there is nothing inside. Now, someone pass me a ball."
"Alright, now you can clearly see that there are a total of 8 balls here. Four red balls are marked with numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively. The white balls are blank, with nothing on them. Now, I'm going to put these 8 balls inside. Any objections?"
"None!" Jing Hao enthusiastically chimed in, "But it does look a bit like magic."
The comments section was filled with: 'Haha, I didn't expect our Captain Jing to still have a sense of humor.'
"So this is the charm of an older man? I got to witness it."
'What older man? Our Captain Jing is clearly in his second spring, in his prime!'
While they were talking, the director had already mixed the balls in the box.
"Then let's stick to the usual rules. Please draw the lots in the order of your current positions. Is that okay?"
The positions were originally randomized, and the drawing lots were also random, so everyone had no objections.
Soon, each of the eight guests held a ball in their hands.
Those holding red balls numbered 1 to 4 were Xu He, Yin Haoyu, Qin Yan, and Jiang Wanwan.
The remaining four, Jing Hao, Wen Yan, Shen Jingchuan, and Shen Jinghe, held white balls.
Seeing this scene, many viewers in the live chat started commenting.
"What's going on? Isn't it supposed to be random? Why did the people I like all get white balls? They don't even have the right to choose."
"Um... It seems like the production team doesn't even know who your favorite person is. It can only be said that it's a coincidence."
"Yeah, the main thing is that I think those who got the red balls are still acceptable. It's not like they are like Min Xiaxia, so I don't think it's a big problem."
"Right, as long as that piece of shit Min Xiaxia is gone, it's fine."
"Sob, is that what I care about? I care that my Alex and Wen Yan both drew white balls. In the previous season, Alex said he hoped to team up with Wen Yan in the second season. I was really looking forward to their cooperation."
"Sob sob, now they have no chance."
"You're being optimistic. Maybe the four red ball holders can choose among themselves, and then the white balls can form a team."
"Sob, it seems that hope is slim."
"Stop typing, they've already started selecting!"
First up, Xu He (Red Ball No. 1) selected Jing Hao, who held a white ball.
This was completely within the viewers expectations.
After the two successfully formed a team, the barrage flooded with the words "as expected".
But then, the selection of red ball number 2, Yin Haoyu, was a bit surprising.
Because Yin Haoyu unexpectedly chose Wen Yan, who held the white ball.
Not to mention the viewers in the live chat, even Wen Yan herself was surprised.
As everyone knew, in the previous season, Yin Haoyu was Min Xiaxia's "loyal supporter", basically following her wherever she went.
And Min Xiaxia had a conflict with Wen Yan.
At the end of the first season, Yin Haoyu had clearly stated that if the second season adopted a team formation mode, he would choose to be with Min Xiaxia.
Now that Min Xiaxia had dropped out, it was unexpected that he chose Wen Yan from the remaining three white balls.
Shen Jingchuan on the scene glared at him.
In fact, Shen Jingchuan had been unhappy since he found out that he and Wen Yan both drew white balls.
Damn it, the reason he agreed to participate in this show was to provide support for Wen Yan and form a team with her. And now, what was this? Get lost!
Shen Jingchuan almost crushed the white ball in his hand.
The live chat also started discussing.
"I don't understand Yin Haoyu. Why didn't he choose Alex or Shen Jinghe? I don't mean to belittle women, but in the wilderness survival, men have a greater advantage than women. If I were him, I would choose Alex, who has demonstrated his abilities in the previous season."
"Because our brother Yin Haoyu is a gentleman. Can't he take care of Wen Yan?"
"Haha, a gentleman? That's hilarious. How did he favor Min Xiaxia in the previous season? Where did his gentlemanly qualities go? Disgusting!"
"Stop arguing, I think this is good. Men and women working together won't be too tiring! I hope the remaining two red ball holders can choose each other, and then Shen Jinghe can team up with Alex. Honestly, I can't resist the combination of two handsome guys. If they team up, I swear I won't sleep for a month. I'll watch their live broadcast every day."
"Our He-He! So sad he missed out on the selection power in his first time on the show. Fighting, He-He!"
However, at this moment, Shen Jinghe's enthusiasm is not particularly high.
The reason he voluntarily joined this program is actually because of Wen Yan! After all, this season is set on the harsh snowy mountains, and he is worried that Wen Yan will have a difficult time alone.
Originally, if Shen Jingchuan was here, he wouldn't have this worry. However, he later received news that Shen Jingchuan didn't plan to participate in the second season, so he took the initiative to contact the program team.
Who knows, in the end, Shen Jingchuan still came.
And he probably came to escort Wen Yan just like himself.
But what's absurd is that there are only a few people in total, and the three of them unlucky fellows didn't draw the red ball, and in the end, Yin Haoyu selected Wen Yan.
Shen Jinghan can't help but feel uncomfortable when he looks at this Yin Haoyu.
He and Min Xiaxa have such a good relationship, who knows if it will be disadvantageous to Wen Yan.
But since they've come to this program, they naturally have to abide by the rules of the game.
Shen Jinghan can only keep a straight face and wait to be chosen.
Shen Jingchuan, who is waiting on the side, has an even more sour expression.
Barrage: "What's going on, why do I feel like the two handsome guys aren't very happy, is it because they don't like the color of the ball?"
"I noticed it too, one is aloof and the other is cool, and they look so alike, ah ah ah they're so handsome, I'm going to faint, I have to turn off the barrage and take a screenshot for my wallpaper."
"Hey, wait, wait for the program team to release the high-definition 4K version before taking a screenshot."
"No, what if the program team didn't include this scene, then I'll lose out."
"By the way, doesn't anyone suspect that these two are brothers?"
"How is that possible, they don't even have the same last name."
"Is it possible that they are long-lost brothers?"
"You've watched too many family reunion dramas, lol."
Amidst the enthusiastic discussion of the netizens, the third pair also became confirmed.
