Free Web NovelChapter 676: Chapter 675: Mu Qiu, You’re the Kindest and Most Gentle Little Fairy
Li Yang finally mustered the courage to give these compliments, and now, being laughed at, his ears turned red.
"I’m not saying anymore, Sister Guan Yu, it’s your turn!"
Guan Yu was driving, and although her driving was like not really driving, she was earnest about completing this task.
When she heard Li Yang telling her to go next, she immediately refused.
"I’m telling you, don’t disturb me while I’m driving! One wrong move, and it could be a ten dead bodies, ten lives incident—or no, ten bodies eleven lives!"
Li Yang was puzzled by the number: "Where did the eleven lives come from? Are you pregnant?"
"What, do you think I’m playing someone with a tumor on their belly this season?"
"...No. But by sequence, it should be your turn!"
"Are you so overwhelmed by having to compliment Mu Qiu?" Guan Yu spoke quickly and densely, her lips moving fast,
"After you two give compliments right now, later when I hand over the steering wheel, then it’ll be my turn. We’ll take turns, so we have a sustainable sequence, okay?"
Li Yang was left speechless, blinking in confusion, and nodded dumbly.
Guan Yu: "Alright, go ahead, you two start pouring compliments on her now."
Shu Ran struggled to put out a compliment.
Usually, she could beam compliments at guests on other variety shows, and even with flying guests on this program, she could maintain a straight face and say a few business praise jargon.
But with certain people on this show, like Mu Qiu, or Guan Yu and Li Yang, Shi Yuhuai, she found it hard to speak up. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Li Yang also found it hard, but he had just closed his eyes and gone for it once, so he was slightly better than Shu Ran.
He noticed Shu Ran’s uncomfortable expression and turned to the back two rows to ask:
"This really is a challenge. For the safety of all of us in the car and an early dinner, teamwork is best, right?"
Shi Yuhuai: "Listen to that tone, he’s learned nine out of ten things from Mu Qiu."
Cheng Zhirang looked at Li Yang.
"How do you want us to help?" Chu Qiu in the last row popped up with a reliable suggestion, "We’ll be the strategists at the back, providing compliments for you to relay as emotionless narrators?"
"Exactly! Brother Chu Qiu, you totally get me!"
Even Shu Ran, who had seemed reluctant, immediately turned her head to express praise for him: "Chu Qiu, your suggestion is great. We’ve decided to adopt it. Alright, who wants to come up with a line first, we’ll say it."
Chu Qiu made a "this is simple" face and came up with two lines right away.
"After meeting you, I realized there’s someone like you in the world, who not only is drop-dead gorgeous but is also broad-minded and helpful."
"All the beautiful words in the world should be used on you, like gentle and elegant, genteel lady."
Guan Yu put on a mock-surprised expression at the camera in front of the car.
"Chu Qiu, how many flirtatious lines have you read in private? Did you copy and memorize them too?"
"Not memorize, just felt them deeply, so I remember a bit," Chu Qiu struck a pose of a proud literary winner, waved his hand, and said, "Go ahead and use them, no thanks needed, just a bowl of dish will do."
Everyone tacitly pretended not to hear his last words.
Li Yang was still contemplating the practicality of the two phrases and hesitantly asked, "Gentle and elegant, what if she thinks we’re being sarcastic?"
Chu Qiu: "You could also use ’strong and powerful’ if you want."
"...Let’s go with gentle and elegant."
He clawed at the car window, pushing away the zombie reaching in, then with closed eyes and gritted teeth, shouted outside.
"Mu Qiu, listen up! To think there’s someone as kind and gentle, astonishingly beautiful, helpful as you in the world! Because of you, I’m incredibly satisfied with this world!"
Blegh—
He nearly retched after saying that.
Mu Qiu’s loud laughter came from outside.
"This is making me shy! But it’s been a long time since anyone said such honest words. Because of what you just said, I’m very satisfied with the world too! Keep going!"
Li Yang drew back from the window, looking back with a face like he was about to cry: "She wants more!"
The others at the back all held back their laughter, only Chu Qiu, while chuckling, continued to advise him.
"What are you afraid of? You’ve overcome the hardest part. Didn’t you just come up with a line yourself earlier? Not bad, increase the disgust level a bit more."
Guan Yu immediately chuckled out loud: "Hahaha, Chu Qiu, why are you so brutally honest?!"
Li Yang stared at them both longingly.
Chu Qiu cleared his throat: "Well, if she wants you to continue, then continue. I feel like she’s about to let us go, as long as the next line sounds nice."
"Oh, then the next one is up to Sister Shu Ran."
Shu Ran, who’d been trying to act invisible, was called out again, her smile stiffening. ƒrēewebnovel.com
Her first reaction was to refuse, but with nine others all eager to watch, including her teammates. When she looked like she was going to refuse, they immediately said things to sway her decision.
Chu Qiu: "Shu Ran, don’t be afraid, you just need to shout it out, we’ll handle the rest!"
Han Xizheng: "Shu Ran, you can do it, maybe Mu Qiu really wants to hear your compliment."
Guo Yin: "I feel like Sister Mu Qiu is eagerly awaiting your praise."
Shen Zhousong: "Just bear with it a bit more, then we’ll be able to drive on and quickly have dinner."
Guan Yu: "Shu Ran, are you really not going to dare?"
Shu Ran you, Shu Ran you, aren’t you able?
Shu Ran me, Shu Ran me, of course, I can... still do it.
Shu Ran took a couple of deep breaths, adopted a perfect demeanor of an elegant star, flicked her hair, and said, "Alright, give me a line."
Everyone immediately worked together, trying to come up with the mushiest, most disgustingly sweet lines.
Chu Qiu: "How about, ’Dear fairy, I must arrest you for the crime of making my heart flutter’?"
Guan Yu: "Blegh—"
Li Yang: "Let me, let me, just say emmm... like, ’Your beauty is like a lyrical poem!’"
Han Xizheng: "I think it should be less cliché and more honest, use this: your smile is like stars scattered across my vision."
Shi Yuhuai: "That’s still a cliché! Keep it simple, if she cooperates, send her a red packet right away."
Shen Zhousong: "Brother Cheng, did you learn anything?"
Cheng Zhirang was already too occupied with laughing to answer.
With those over-the-top compliments being thrown around, Shu Ran felt like she was about to have a heart attack. She couldn’t imagine what a memorable scene it would be to shout them out later.
She might end up being laughed at by Guan Yu and Mu Qiu until the last episode.
Whatever, she’ll just think of the least cringeworthy line herself and shout it casually.
She leaned over Li Yang, peeking out through the car window, and just from the side, enduring the embarrassment, she shouted:
"Mu Qiu, you’re the most beautiful fairy! You’re kind-hearted, sweet, adorable, smart, and clever! Unmatched!"
