Chapter 93：Made in the USA by Demi Lovato

Gustav was horrified by that scene, he almost ran over to pull Kitten into his arms. He deeply blamed himself for coming up with such a dangerous idea. His face maintained a tensed elegant expression, hiding a layer of cold sweat behind it, his palm was almost dripping sweat.

Bonnie walked up to him and teased in schadenfreude, "Are you okay? Boss? I thought I just saw you tremble a bit?"

Gustav whispered, "Whose idea was it to tie the paper so high? Don't you know it's dangerous? He was almost blown away." God knew how his heart almost exploded.

"Jeffrey." Bonnie heartlessly betrayed her teammate, "He said that tying it up high will make us see the contestants' twisted terrified faces, maybe someone will curl up and cry. The scene would be very interesting and pull in high ratings."

Gustav coldly glared at the cheerfully snickering Jeffrey.

Zhou Yun Sheng was even an immortal with martial arts flying skills once, walking at this high-altitude was a cake walk. He soon finished a lap and found the three sheets of paper.

The first note listed a white shirt and jeans, the second note was a guitar, and the third note said South.

He immediately ran into the dressing room, picked out a white shirt and jeans and asked for a guitar from the prop master, then he ran into the styling room to have the stylists tidy his makeup. He walked to the south shooting location, looking shy and fresh like a high school student.

If his Aunt hadn't embezzled the inheritance his parents had left him, Romeo would now be in high school, rather than running around and participating in a TV show.

"Hello Mr. Acheson, I'm ready to take my photos." He smiled at the tall man who was adjusting his camera.

Gustav pretended to just notice him and stood up to shake his hands and instruct, "Sit on this high chair, I'll take care of your photos. The judges will judge the pros and cons of your best photo in this challenge. Rest assured, I'm not only a model, I'm also a professional photographer. My works have won gold medals in the International Photography Competition."

Zhou Yun Sheng gave an impressed expression, his blue eyes full of worship.

Gustav tried to maintain a serious expression, to stop himself from laughing like a fool. He took out his cell phone and asked, "Do you want to see my works?" He liked having the teenager look at him as if they were the only two people in the world.

Zhou Yun Sheng actually wanted to finish his pictures quickly, but in order to placate the producer's vanity, he had to say that he was happy to oblige.

Gustav showed off his most proud works, animals, scenery, but no people. He never photographed people, he felt that there was no one in the world who deserved to be remembered and leave a never-fading image in his mind. They would disappear sooner or later, and he would exist long after them.

This idea was arrogant and absurd, but it was firmly rooted in his soul. But now, things were different. He frantically collected all the teenager's images, like a voyeur, hiding in the dark study, obsessively re-playing his game footage over and over. He was fascinated by his every move. And, as he stood beside him, his fuzzy little head within arm's reach, his warm breath was tickling his wrist, causing every one of his muscles to tremble with excitement. He needed to devote all his self-control to suppress his desire to embrace the boy.

Zhou Yun Sheng was surprised, he didn't expect Gustav Acheson's photography skills would be so great. He would always use the most unique perspective to shoot the most unique photos, like a bystander in the world's parade, sober and indifferent. The man's heart was completely different from his appearance.

A classic case of don't judge a book.

He looked at the man's face with probing eyes.

Gustav felt his body burning up, but he caught a glimpse of a male player completing his task and running toward his position, so he had to end his close contact with Kitten.

"If I have the opportunity, I'll take you to my photo studio to have a look at my best works over the years. Okay, let's get to work." He picked up the camera and made a little adjustment.

Zhou Yun Sheng was flattered and smiled, then he seated himself in the high chair under his instructions, and bowed his head to the guitar strings.

"I'm ready to shoot whenever you're all set," Gustav lifted his camera and said, "Can you play the guitar? Sing a song for me."

Singing was also one of Zhou Yun Sheng's professions. He almost missed playing music whenever he wanted. He spit out a string of French poetry, about how a rural boy fell in love with a noble beautiful lady, day and night, his yearning thoughts made him grow exhausted, and he poured out his pain in a sad song. The sound was bleak, like a natural echo in an empty hall.

Gustav was completely immersed in Kitten's song, but he didn't forget to capture his sad or happy or quiet expressions with the camera. He felt that he loved him a little more every day, and there was no limit to his love in sight.

After a triumphant finish, everyone in the hall warmly applauded, even Hayden's face was slightly ruddy.

"Romeo, my beloved Romeo, how many wonderful surprises can you bring me? Your song was fantastic, if you sign up for A Country Idol, you would definitely win!" Bonnie walked over and warmly embraced the boy, Ivana whistled and shouted praise again.

Zhou Yun Sheng waved, saying not to disturb everyone's shooting, then carried the guitar back to the props. The players had a new understanding of Romeo's talents, even their jealousy felt fruitless. But, they wouldn't easily throw in the towel, so they immediately put aside the distraction to complete their task.

Romeo's more and more outstanding performance left Emily with a serious sense of crisis. He could play the guitar and sing, and his skill level wouldn't lose to professional singers. If this episode broadcasted, she could imagine how much the audience would go crazy for the boy. There were a lot of beautiful people, but beautiful and talented people were rare, the occasional talent led to fanatical pursuit from everyone.

Isn't Gustav Acheson the perfect example of this? So you better quickly knock out Romeo!

With this thought, she hurriedly walked to Hayden's side and dragged him to the middle of the hall.

"Dear, you can't escape any longer, everyone is almost done with their task, you're the only one left. Do you know how many viewers are watching you on TV? Do you want to be eliminated? Do you want to be a laughingstock? Don't give them the chance!"

Her words finally played a role. Hayden slowly walked up to the transparent glass.

"Holy fuck, that's terrible!" He wailed, trying to grab the cross necklace on his chest for a kiss, but he remembered that he was in too much of a rush this morning and forgot to put it on. He quickly went to his backpack, but was terrified to find that his necklace had disappeared. It was his grandmother's heirloom, both its market and sentimental value was priceless.

"My necklace is gone, have you seen it? I took it off and put it on the table before my bath last night." He forgot his fear and grabbed Emily's thin arm to question her.

"I don't know. This morning, Romeo helped pack your things, you should ask him." Emily cleverly fanned the flames.

It was Romeo, he must have stolen the necklace. Hayden had long harbored a grudge against the youth, so he immediately put the blame on his head, he clenched a fist and rushed in. He was trembling in fear for a long time, his nerves was on the brink of collapse, he now only needed a small reason to set him off, he forgot all about the rules.

Zhou Yun Sheng felt a strong wind rushing toward his ear and quickly shifted his head to avoid the heavy punch by the skin of his teeth. Standing beside him, Ivana was enraged, she lifted her foot to kick, but he tightly hugged her.

"Don't fight back, the program group strictly prohibits any physical conflict. As long as we fight, we will be unconditionally eliminated." He whispered in Ivana's ear.

Ivana abruptly held herself back, and the two ran into the corner for shelter, Hayden following them with his fists clenched. The contestants saw the scene but no one came forward to stop it. They couldn't wait for the three people to fight, then be eliminated together.

Gustav heard the commotion and looked up from his shooting, his face extremely gloomy. He quickly ran over and pulled Hayden away, then gathered the scared Kitten into his arms.

"Baby, are you all right?" In the confusion, no one noticed his ambiguous call. He held Kitten's chin, repeatedly twisting his face around, even caressing his scalp to see if there was a lump. Gustav was more frightened than his Kitten, his heart thumped wildly and he actually felt a sharp pain.

Bonnie and Jeffrey rushed over with the staff to hold Hayden down.

Hayden struggled as he roared, "He's a thief! He stole my grandmother's heirloom! A diamond cross necklace, worth at least 500,000! I want to call the police, I want to ban him, I want him to quit the fashion circle forever!"

Nobody paid attention to his screaming, Gustav was lifting his Kitten's jacket, checking for any bruises on his back. At the moment, he couldn't wait to kill Hayden.

Yes, he'll let Hayden understand what it meant to be banned and never set foot in the fashion circle.

"Take him to the lounge." He waved, motioning the staff to take Hayden away. He pulled the pale Kitten to follow him, this matter had to be dealt with strictly.

After the crowd left, Emily pouted, showing a disappointment expression. She thought that Romeo would resist Hayden's attack, if she was lucky, Ivana would join in, and the three people would be eliminated for violating the rules. But Romeo unexpectedly held the restless Ivana and hid in the corner, not even returning any of Hayden's punches.

Is he too cowardly or too calm? If it was the latter, then he would be a terrible enemy! As for the necklace hidden in Hayden's pocket, Emily knew that the staff would go back to search, in order to uphold this program's reputation, they would certainly thoroughly check things out.

At that time, she'd thought of simply throwing the necklace into the toilet, to completely eliminate evidence, but she was worried that Romeo and his inseparable cameraman would capture her on film. The results showed that her concern was necessary, otherwise after Hayden and the police eliminated Romeo as a suspect, the police would doubt her next.

In the lounge, Gustav was hugging Kitten, and Hayden was pressed by the staff into the opposite chair, shouting out 'Thief, bastard, street urchin' and so on.
