CHAPTER 661: CHAPTER 661: CALL DADDY

Ye Xian: "Don’t you think the unknown is the most frightening thing?"

Jiang Wen was right; the production team was ruthless—kicking things off with such a major move. Aren’t we all top-tier young idols? Couldn’t they spare a little image packaging?

Given the severity of the other contestants’ tasks, their random task couldn’t be much better.

Cary: "Who cares, we’ll deal with whatever they throw at us."

Once the director announced the official start of the task, everyone set off on their quest for points, and simultaneously, the live streaming channel was activated.

"An unprecedented lineup, unparalleled viewership, and brutally challenging game rules—today, eight top-tier young idols have come together to face extraordinary challenges and tests. Who will emerge as the final victor and claim the crown of popularity..."

Hundreds of millions of fans flooded into video apps, nearly crashing the streaming software. The barrage of comments was filled with fans rallying support for their ’brother’ with calls and flattery, so excessive it was impossible to watch without turning them off.

As the other three groups departed, the production team started assigning Ye Xian and Cary their task, "First, wander around the small town. We’ll assign random tasks based on the situation as it develops, but one condition—don’t let anyone discover your identities. Our PG (accompanying photographer) will also stay well-hidden."

Ye Xian: "This is just a small, eighteenth-tier county town with very few young people. Surely no one will recognize us, right?"

"Then you have greatly underestimated your popularity."

The director smiled cryptically as Cary grabbed his backpack, "Don’t worry about him, he’s never been popular."

"Heh, what... what are you bringing all this for?"

Ye Xian looked at the wig, women’s clothing, greasepaint, and a bunch of other miscellaneous items he was pulling out of his backpack with a sinking feeling, especially since he... even brought a bra!

"This is, of course, tried and tested wisdom from a variety show veteran. How else would we disguise ourselves? You’re lucky to be in a group with me. You get first pick!"

Cary generously extended his hand, and the comments erupted in laughter, screaming ’Cross-dress! Cross-dress!’ ’We want to see Xianxian in women’s clothing!’ ’Hahaha, I can’t even imagine how beautiful that would look’ ’Cary is as open-minded as ever’ ’Is the bra for real? Ye Xian’s face has turned green’ ’Am I the only one who thinks Ye Xian would look beautiful in drag? I just thought about it and drooled a Niagara Falls’ ’Hahahaha the bra got censored by the production team!’

Cary picked up the censored item and, with a lecherous expression, held it in front of Ye Xian, "How about..."

Ye Xian slapped the censored item onto Cary’s face and randomly drew a few lines on his own face with the greasepaint pen, "I’m leaving!"

"Hey, hey~"

Cary hurriedly grabbed a wig and followed him.

"It was just a joke; what’s with the big reaction? It’s like you’ve never seen one of those things before."

Ye Xian looked at him with the indistinct gender expression caused by the wig and curled the corner of his mouth, using disgust to cover up his embarrassment.

A normal man wearing a wig should look like this, right? A bit creepy, and if she wore it without a makeup artist’s touch, her identity would probably be exposed sooner rather than later...

When Cary saw the disdain in her eyes, he gritted his teeth. If it wasn’t for the sake of his dignity, he would have told her that if he hadn’t swapped the list, it would be him shoveling pig manure with Xiao Yixuan right now!

"Stop!"

As the two were passing by a pavilion, the earpiece suddenly conveyed the production team’s command: "Ye Xian, Cary, do you see that group of children in the pavilion? The first task is about to begin. Go into the pavilion and get them to call you ’Daddy’!"
