Seeing that Su Manman didn’t respond, she couldn’t help but raise her concern in a low voice. “Now, they’re all guessing what’s going on between you and God Shi! Manman… what should we do? I saw that God Shi’s expression was so ugly just now…”
Su Manman was a newcomer. If Shi Hanchu pulled Su Manman out suddenly and returned with an ugly expression on his face, the entertainment industry would surely go against Su Manman and scold her. How could she not worry?
Su Manman nodded and propped herself up. “I got it. Let’s go back!”
She used to be someone who had made a name for herself in the industry. Su Manman knew that if she went back with reddened eyes now or said nothing after she went back, what would be the headlines for the gossip tomorrow? Either she was scheming and wanted to use Shi Hanchu to climb up the social ladder, or Shi Hanchu was bullying a beautiful newbie.
She forced herself to stand up, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. After adjusting her emotions, she smiled and walked back.
Feeling uneasy, Dong Dong peeked carefully at Su Manman, but she didn’t dare to ask further.
As soon as Su Manman returned, everyone’s eyes were on her. She stood beside the director with a smile, bent over, and said, “Director, can you assign God Shi and I to another team member? Both God Shi and I aren’t afraid of ghosts, and going in there together is like a walk in a park! God Shi and I had a discussion just now. He asked me not to pretend to be afraid anymore and to go in with Ji Jiarou. With me around, Ji Jiarou won’t be afraid, nor will there be any worry of hugging a companion’s arm which both men and women would find acceptable.”
Su Manman then turned around and glanced at Ji Jiarou, winking at her.
After Su Manman said this, everyone’s attention was drawn to the fact that Su Manman was unafraid of ghosts!
“No way! Manman, aren’t you afraid of ghosts? But you clearly…”
Su Manman flipped her hair and smiled with a hint of arrogance. “That’s how superb my acting is. I’m sorry for deceiving you all!”
“No wonder! I didn’t hear Manman scream at all!”
“Right! She’s about to enter the second round and is still playing games…”
“Manman, as a beauty… Aren’t you being too much? How will your future boyfriend live?”
The director knew very well how Su Manman and Shi Hanchu were doing inside. The director glanced at Shi Hanchu and then at Su Manman, feeling that this was an excellent suggestion…
Hence, after seeking the opinions of his crew, he agreed to let them change teams.
Shi Hanchu looked at Su Manman but said nothing.
Ji Jiarou wanted to be in the same team as Shi Hanchu, but Su Manman said that… Shi Hanchu said men and women shouldn’t be close to each other. She was worried that Shi Hanchu wouldn’t let her grab his arm when she went in later, so she agreed to be in the same team with Su Manman.
“Are you really not afraid?” Ji Jiarou asked Su Manman.
“We’re all people, so what’s there to be afraid of?” Su Manman crossed her legs and played on her phone.
“But the lighting… the atmosphere and the sound, it’s really scary!” Ji Jiarou felt a lingering fear.
“I’ll protect you when we go in later. Just hide behind me if you’re scared!” Su Manman casually said while staring at her phone screen.
“Really? Manman, you’re so nice!” Ji Jiarou suddenly had a good impression of this young lady who was prettier than her. She took out her phone and added Su Manman on her WeChat.
Su Manman smiled, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes…
Her mind was still filled with Shi Hanchu’s words. The spot on her wrist where Shi Hanchu had grabbed her was still burning with pain.
But Su Manman kept acting like she was playing the game skillfully on her phone.
Even though Su Manman appeared calm and composed now, her assistant standing in the crowd couldn’t help but worry as she looked at Su Manman. Seeing Shi Hanchu’s dark face and Su Manman’s pale face after he left her frightened her.
After swapping away Ji Jiarou as a partner, Su Manman’s team was the second group that entered the haunted house.
Just as Su Manman said, when the person taking Ji Jiarou’s place was a girl, she looked as if she was hanging onto Su Manman before she entered. She hugged Su Manman’s arm tightly and hid behind her as she walked in.
After entering, Ji Jiarou realized that Su Manman was indeed not afraid at all. Throughout the whole process, she protected her as though she was a strong boyfriend. Even so, Ji Jiarou was still frightened to the point of crying.
Thankfully, after working hard to memorize all the items, Ji Jiarou knew where she had messed up. After Su Manman slowly placed the scalpel back to its place, they quickly returned all the other props to their original positions. Just as the Ghost King came out, they had already walked out of the haunted house.
The others saw that Su Manman had brought Ji Jiarou out in less than 20 minutes, and they all applauded.
“I finally know why God Shi and Manman came out so quickly when they were in the same team! So it’s the two big bosses that got in together!” Ji Jiarou wiped her tears and smiled as she said, “Manman is really not afraid… I was so scared to death!”
Su Manman reached out to stroke Ji Jiarou’s hair and sat back down at the spot she had just rested.
When the show ended, Su Manman didn’t say a word to Shi Hanchu, nor did she focus on Shi Hanchu…
After the recording was completed, Shi Hanchu left after apologizing to everyone because he still had to rush for his schedule.
Su Manman also had to rush back to the filming set and couldn’t attend the others for a gathering. After exchanging contact numbers with everyone, she headed to the airport.
Even though Su Manman appeared normal on the set, Yang Weiyi could sense that Su Manman was in a bad mood.
On the way to the airport, Su Manman didn’t even put on a facial mask. She laid down the back of the seat and covered her face with her cap, not saying a word.
Yang Weiyi sat in the backseat and glanced at Su Manman, guessing that Su Manman’s bad mood was probably because Shi Hanchu had dragged her away for a while.
Yang Weiyi looked down at her phone screen to see a photo of her and Jiang Mingzhu. Her fingers brushed against the picture gently…
Now that Jiang Mingzhu was no longer around, she would protect her best friend, Shi Hanchu, whom Jiang Mingzhu wanted to protect the most when she was still alive. Yang Weiyi would keep an eye on Su Manman and not let her have a chance!
After returning to the country, Su Manman returned to the filming crew of “The Olden Days.” The director was extremely satisfied with Su Manman’s Feng Yi.
From being devoted to protecting Little Phoenix to being betrayed by kinship and love…
On the makeup, because the director didn’t want to suddenly give Su Manman a smokey makeup to make her look like she had turned evil; instead, wanting her to slowly change her looks so that the audience wouldn’t find the transition too stiff. Therefore, at the start, he was a little worried that a rookie like Su Manman wouldn’t be able to act well.
Who knew that even without Su Manman’s Fengyi makeup changing at all, the aura around her changed drastically the moment she got injured and turned evil.
She was clearly just a person, clearly wearing the same clothes and had identical facial features; yet…
