Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: How can this not count?!

“It feels like Mr. Ren is about to hit a wall.”

Adding to the difficulty is the fact that both Lin Fangyu and Ren Yunlin aren’t very well-known overseas. It’s even harder because of this.

“So what would it take for you to lend it to us?” Lin Fangyu didn’t want to give up.

The people from the museum didn’t want to say much more to them.

“No matter what, it just won’t work.”

The entire air settled into a deathly silence.

The livestream chat was buzzing with comments.

“It’s understandable that the museum staff are hesitant to lend it. But isn’t it a bit too much for Actress Lin to keep hitting a wall like this?”

“Look at their attitude, they’re so firm. Can’t they ease up a little?”

“That Sphinx is notoriously difficult to borrow. It’s all the director’s fault for setting such a tough task!”

Director: “…”

He really hadn’t considered that point.

He picked up the walkie-talkie, intending to tell Lin Fangyu and them that if they couldn’t borrow it, he would think of something else and give them another task.

Just then, Li Xingwan and her team arrived.

“Actress Lin?”

They had just packaged up the item they needed for their mission. They were about to leave when they heard Lin Fangyu and her team’s voices.

After all, both teams had rushed over at the same time.

“What’s going on here?”

The atmosphere seemed off, so Li Xingwan asked.

It was obvious that the staff’s attitude towards her was different from that towards Lin Fangyu and her team.

“These two are also here to borrow something. It’s just that what they want is quite difficult to lend.”

“Right! If anything happens, no one can bear the responsibility.”

“What do Actress Lin and her team want to borrow?”

The staff pointed to the other side. “The Sphinx.”

“The Sphinx?” Li Xingwan knew about this; it indeed wasn’t easy to borrow. Not only isn’t it easy, but it’s also practically impossible.

She had just solved the Thousand Mechanism Lock earlier, which was intentionally set as a challenge for her. They expected her to give up once she couldn’t solve it. Who knew she would actually succeed?

Because Mr. Fu was present and there was a livestream, the museum director had no choice but to allow her to borrow it.

Now with Lin Fangyu and her team…

“Could we do this?” Li Xingwan spoke up. “How about just letting them take a picture with the Sphinx inside the museum?”

The director seized the opportunity to back this idea. “Sure, sure.”

Yet the museum staff still looked displeased.

“Even that won’t work?”

The museum staff spoke up. “How about this, if Actress Lin can solve the Thousand Mechanism Lock like Miss Li here did, we would agree.”

This made Actress Lin and her team’s faces change immediately. There’s no way she could solve it!

Even Li Xingwan glanced over at them. “Are you expecting to find a second person to solve the Thousand Mechanism Lock? How about this then? Does what I promised you before not count anymore?”

The personnel were speechless: “…”

How could they not count that?!

But seeing Li Xingwan’s clear intention to help Actress Lin and her team,

the director had to make a concession.

“Alright then, they are only allowed to take a photo standing next to it.”

Being able to take that artifact out of the glass case was already a miracle within countless impossibilities.

Li Xingwan and her team naturally understood.

And this would count as Actress Lin and her team completing their task.

“Agreed,” the director chimed in.

Actress Lin and her team immediately went over, understanding the challenges the staff faced. They knew that without Li Xingwan, they probably wouldn’t have completed the task. So they didn’t put anyone on the spot and were extremely grateful.

Quickly, Actress Lin and her team completed their task. The Sphinx was immediately returned to its place.

“Actress Lin completed the task,” announced the director’s side. “It took two hours and ten minutes.”
