Chapter 15: Change of Plans



Chapter 15

"For the money."

Qin Wei didn't try to hide it. For a celebrity of her status, even if the hugely popular show Like Your Life invited her, she might not necessarily have considered it.

It was obvious to anyone with eyes that she must be having financial issues.

Qin Wei pointed to the cameras:

"What they offered was quite a lot."

Director A: "..."

Anti-fans:

[You don't have to be so direct...]

...

By now the sky was pitch black and everyone was just about done playing, but they still hadn't gotten Qin Wei to do a single dare. The production team felt it was a pity, so they rigged the spinning wheel to force one more round of the game.

They weren't trying very hard to hide their intentions...

Qin Wei rolled her eyes at the camera again.

She had to put on the performance required of her. Li Hanming spun the wheel and it landed squarely on Qin Wei's name.

Production team: "This time it's a dare!"

Li Hanming smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, momentarily at a loss for what to say.

Clearly the boy didn't want to make things difficult for Qin Wei.

In the end a staff member passed him a small slip of paper.

Qin Wei: "Do you think I'm blind..."

But the filming had to go on. Li Hanming opened the slip of paper and looked at Qin Wei apologetically.

"Teacher Qin..."

"You have to face the consequences of gambling, go ahead and read it boldly."

With Qin Wei's encouragement, Li Hanming finally read it out:

"Perform one of your hidden talents."

"That's it?"

Qin Wei was taken aback. What was so hard about this?

Anti-fans:

[As everyone knows, Ms. Qin has no talents, only her looks.]

[As everyone knows, Ms. Qin has no talents, and doesn't even have a brain.]

[Everyone, while Ms. Qin may not have any talents, she also has no moral character.]

[She can't sing or dance! I still remember her lip-syncing at the New Year's Eve gala. Lip-syncing was bad enough, but her dancing was awful too. It looked like radio calisthenics even though it was such a simple dance routine. Please don't embarrass yourself.]

[We should let her embarrass herself, otherwise what can we mock?]

...

Su Xiaoxiao was a little expectant:

"So what hidden talent is Sister Qin going to demonstrate?"

Hidden talent.

Self-explanatory - it meant a talent others didn't know about. Qin Wei racked her brains, she didn't even know if the original owner could sing or dance.

Qin Wei rolled up her sleeves:

"Then I'll demonstrate eating a bowl of noodles in one minute for everyone!"

Li Hanming: "?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "??"

Daniel: "???"

"Isn't that hidden enough?" Qin Wei frowned, "Or I could also demonstrate drinking a whole bottle of water in two gulps..."

Production team: "......"

...

In the broadcast, Qin Wei did not demonstrate the two talents she mentioned, but rather a failed handstand.

She toppled over before even getting upright.

Lying on the ground with everyone looking at her, Qin Wei didn't get up. She might as well give up - as expected, the original owner's physique was too poor for her to demonstrate any bit of talent.

"Forget it, I don't have any hidden talents."

Anti-fans:

[Is Qin stupid? With arms that skinny trying to do a handstand, what an idiot.]

[Who wants to watch her do a handstand?? I want to see her eat noodles in one minute.]

[Me too, Sister Qin do it for us, I'll stop being an anti-fan right away.]

...

Before returning to their rooms to rest that night, the production team brought them money for ingredients.

Five 10 yuan banknotes.

"Fifty yuan?"

Lin Qiqi couldn't quite believe her eyes.

"I remember the show team was going to treat us to Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and supply the ingredients too. How come they're only giving fifty? That's not even enough for one person."

The staff member justified according to the director's instructions:

"The show team promised to provide, but didn't say how much. The budget is only fifty."

Qin Wei pointed to the camera: "Say that again!"

"Only fifty yuan."

Qin Wei glared at the director furiously: "Fifty is too little! It's not even enough to stew an old hen. "

Staff member: "You can make vegetarian Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

Lin Qiqi refused to give up and continued arguing:

"There are two chickens, aren't there? We'll just eat one..."

Daniel looked to Qin Wei aggrievedly:

"Sis Qin is a shareholder of the chicken coop, ask Sis Qin."

A clever wife can't cook a meal without rice, and Qin Wei was temporarily at a loss too.

The staff member smiled slyly:

"There is a way, if the teachers, especially Teacher Qin, are willing to cooperate..."

Qin Wei immediately had a bad premonition.

...

Returning to the dorm at night, Qin Wei sipped the flower tea she had brewed herself and rested her eyes.

On the other hand, Shen Qingqing was a little excited. Although the show team didn't reveal the guest's identity, the person must have some feud with Qin Wei.

Otherwise, why would they specifically mention getting Qin Wei to "cooperate"?

"It can't be Brother Kai coming, can it?"

Shen Qingqing deliberately brought him up again, and specially asked Qin Wei:

"What do you think, Sis Qin?"

Qin Wei sipped her flower tea with eyes closed:

"Anyone will do, as long as the money comes through..."

She figured from what the staff said that the visitor had ill intent and very likely some grudge with the original owner. But she didn't need to be too afraid - she would be retiring from the industry soon anyway, and if she couldn't handle them she could always avoid them. Under the sun, what more could the visitor do other than petty revenge?

Shen Qingqing didn't know what she was thinking, but had her own ideas. For example, Peach Blossom Spring was unlikely to invite a top celebrity like Brother Shen Kai. Failing that, those who had new and old grudges with Qin Wei...

Were really not few in number.

Shen Qingqing asked again:

"If Sister Qiao comes, would you welcome her, Sis Qin?"

Sister Qiao... who was that?

Qin Wei was confused, but felt it didn't matter who came. So she told her:

"I'd welcome anyone who comes, it's getting late, let's sleep."

Anti-fans:

[Qiao Sixiao? Sorry, I've already started laughing.]

[Sis Ran is so chill, quite a cute contrast hahahaha, sleep tight hahahaha shaking my stupid wolfy head]

[I'm new, what's the deal with Qiao Sixiao? Haven't read up on her before.]

[One of the people Ms. Qin dislikes the most, possibly the MOST disliked.]

[Sis Ran rolled her eyes at her, and in an interview they did together, Qiao said in front of the media that Sis Ran loved to curse in private.]

[But now Sis Ran curses in public.]

[Pfft hahahaha]

[Qiao Sixiao ah, debuted around the same time as Qin Wei, of equal status, deadly rivals for life.]
