Chapter 100 - Turn the Camera On Jiang Xun!

This was their duty!

They wanted nothing more than to pretend that they hadn’t seen Jiang Xun, but the cameras were rolling, so they physically couldn’t!

And so, they continued to chase Jiang Xun with tears in their eyes.

Not only that, Jiang Xun was carefully maintaining a distance between them so that they could see her, but not catch up to her. If they were to speed up, Jiang Xun would do the same.

They also didn’t have as much stamina as Jiang Xun. She might have been toying with them now, but they were already completely drained and didn’t have any energy to speed up anymore.

They could only keep trying to chase her. Maybe if they lost sight of Jiang Xun, they wouldn’t have to chase her anymore.

But who could’ve known that Jiang Xun would turn around, see that her pursuers had slowed down, and slow down herself!

Damn it!

She was humiliating them!

“Hey, you black shirts! Are you supposed to be running at this speed?” Guanglin asked, holding a walkie-talkie in hand. “Are pursuers supposed to be so slow? Go faster!.”

The men in black who stayed at the back avoided the camera and whispered while panting, “Director, we can’t. We can’t run anymore.”

Guanglin was rendered speechless.

In the meantime, Mufeng and Miaotong had finally found the space-time gate.

Mufeng handed the key to Miaotong. “Open the door and leave.”

“You’re not leaving?” Miaotong asked, surprised.

“After the space-time door opens, the men in black will stop. I’ll go look for Jiang Xun then,” Mufeng explained.

Jiang Xun was terrible with directions, after all. Even if the men stopped chasing her, she probably wouldn’t be able to find her way out even if she walked around the city til sundown.

“Then I’ll go with you.” Miaotong had always felt guilty for pushing Jiang Xun as a distraction for the men in black.

“You’re a permanent guest. Jiang Xun and I are just here for the time being and won’t be participating in any further episodes. Even if we win, it’ll be a waste. There’s no need for that,” Mufeng explained.

[So that’s what President Qin and Jiang Jiang are thinking.]

[They’re so warm. They’re not taking the spotlight even though they’re special guests.]

[Rather than winning by themselves, why not give the medal to a permanent participant?]

[They’re sooooo generous!]

[I hope some people learn from it. Don’t try to hog the camera even though you’re only gonna appear once.]

“Thank you,” Miaotong thanked him gratefully.

“Hurry up and open the door,” Mufeng said. “Hurry up and get the men to stop so that Jiang Xun won’t have to run anymore.”

“Okay,” Miaotong said hurriedly. She was embarrassed that she had wasted so much time just now, so she quickly opened the door.

The space-time door was actually a prop that the program team had made, and the key was a round token that was to be placed into a groove in the door.

When the door was opened, as soon as Miaotong stepped through, she would win. The production team would then add in special effects for the main episode.

“The space-time gate has been opened. Xu Miaotong is the winner.” When the announcement came, the men in black all stopped.

They stopped faster than any other episode.

The live stream then cut to the participants who had already arrived outside the venue.

[What’s going on with the production team? Aren’t they going to cut to Jiang Xun?]

[President Qin has gone to look for Jiang Xun. Aren’t you going to show it to us?]

The assistant director then sent a message in the live chat through the company’s official account. [For more highlights, please pay attention to tomorrow night’s main episode and the VIP exclusive content.]

[Dirty profiteers!]

[The program team has no standards!]

[Is it because we didn’t give them enough gifts?]

[I’ll pay you right now if you turn the camera to Jiang Xun!]

The program team was unmoved, however.

Without the camera focusing on them, the men in black collapsed on the ground. Not just them—the director and the cameraman following Jiang Xun were also completely wiped out.

Even though the second cameraman was holding a lighter camera, he still couldn’t keep up with her.

“Jiang Xun… you… are too good at running…” the cameraman said breathlessly, having collapsed onto the ground.

“You guys should train more,” Jiang Xun advised, “especially when you have to follow the guests all the time when you’re filming. How can you not train your bodies?”

“We’ve never met a guest who can run like you!” The men in black broke down.

Jiang Xun remained silent at their outburst.

“Eh?” The cameraman suddenly sounded puzzled.

His professional intuition told him to immediately raise his head and continue filming.

“What’s wrong?” The director asked.

“It’s Mr. Qin. He hasn’t left yet. Why is he here?” The cameraman said.

Jiang Xun looked over and saw Mufeng running toward her. His cameraman and director were following him, and the cameraman was still filming him.

Mufeng ran over and saw that Jiang Xun was standing there as if nothing had happened.

“Why are you here?” she asked curiously. “Didn’t you leave?”

“I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to find your way back,” he answered in a low voice.

He could tell that Jiang Xun would never admit that she had a bad sense of direction. Therefore, in order to prevent others from hearing him, Mufeng deliberately lowered his voice.

Jiang Xun looked at him strangely. “There are so many people here. Besides, there’s also the director and the cameraman. Even if I don’t know them, they know each other, so I could follow them out.”

Mufeng was rendered speechless.

Hehe!

Why didn’t he think of that?

He’d run in this direction.

Although the two of them had lowered their voices, they had forgotten that they were wearing microphones.

Even if they were speaking softly, their conversation could still be heard.

After Guanglin heard that, he hurriedly told the assistant director, “Make sure to put this segment in the VIP exclusive content. Since our distinguished VIPs have been charged, we have to show them the good clips so that they know we’re worth their money!”

The assistant director was rendered speechless.

The men in black were not in a hurry to leave. However, the director and the cameraman only took a short break before they returned to the outskirts of the city with Jiang Xun and Mufeng because the program team and the guests were still waiting outside the city.

When Jiang Xun and Mufeng came out, everyone applauded when they saw them.

“This time, it’s all thanks to Jiang Xun that I was able to get first place in this episode,” Miaotong said gratefully. “Otherwise, she would have gotten first place instead.”

Xiangyou smiled. “When I was being chased by the men in black, I met Jiang Xun and threw the clue to her without thinking, but I was a little too tired and couldn’t throw it far. When Jiang Xun rushed over, she did a forward somersault. She was so cool!”

Guanglin laughed off screen and said, “It’s a pity for Mr. Kangwang and Mr. Shixiang this time. One of them sprained his waist, while the other had a foot cramp.”

“Apart from Jiang Xun this time, it seems that only I, Mr. Qin and Xiangyou, are not injured,” Miaotong said, “Xiangyou, let’s not talk about it. It’s a daily exercise. Mr. Qin and I did a warm-up with Jiang Xun in the beginning. I think it has something to do with this?”

“I think so.” Kangwang held his waist. “I should have done a warm-up with Jiang Xun.”

“That’s right!” Shixiang said bitterly, “Brother Wang, we’re not idols. With our faces, What’s wrong with a warm-up? Are we afraid of losing fans?”
