During the chitchat, everyone more or less got to know each other, so Zhang Dafu looked at Director Li, "Director Li, when are we starting? We’re already itching to unleash our primal force!"
Bi Xia paused, looked at Zhang Dafu, then looked at Meng Han.
Seeing those beautiful starry eyes staring straight at him, Zhang Dafu gulped and suddenly saw Bi Xia look at his wife again. Zhang Dafu raised his hand to cover Meng Han’s eyes and shouted, "Don’t look at my wife! Bi Xiaoxia, don’t look at my wife!"
Everyone: ??? Completely confused!
Meng Han: ??? Even more confused!
"Ahhhh, your eyes, your face, it’s too unfair!" Zhang Dafu shouted, "Even if I were a man, I’d worry I’d turn gay! Let alone my wife! She’s a typical looks-obsessed person!"
Everyone: ...
Meng Han: ...
Poof—
In an instant, everyone burst into laughter. Xu Renfei laughed the heartiest, while Bi Xia scratched his nose a bit sheepishly.
Zhang Dafu lowered his hand, feeling a bit powerless, "Xu Renfei, don’t you have this sense of crisis? Before, with you here, even though you’re handsome, at least you’re funny, so we didn’t feel any crisis."
Xu Renfei: You’re the funny one!
"But!" Zhang Dafu pouted, "Bi Xiaoxia is too unfair! Standing next to anyone, she’s always a shining light. Especially with you two good-looking ones together, today you two stay away from me. I don’t want my wife turning into your little fangirl after we go home!"
At this moment, Li Han also nodded in agreement, pulling Han Yue back a step, "I agree."
Xu Renfei and Bi Xia innocently exchanged looks and blinked. Xu Renfei grinned smugly, "Haha, depends on my mood!"
Bi Xia innocently blinked, "Even if you praise me like that, I won’t go easy on you."
Zhang Dafu: "... Ahhh! Unfair!"
Bi Xia helplessly rubbed his forehead, saying, "Actually, I just wanted to say, Brother Dafu, you’re so funny, how does Sister Meng Han tolerate you."
Meng Han smiled at Bi Xia, "So my laughter threshold keeps getting higher and higher, otherwise I’d laugh myself to death at home every day."
At this moment, Kai weakly spoke, "Um... when are we starting?"
Instantly, everyone restrained their smiles. As expected, the regular members each looked warily at Director Li.
They knew Director Li too well; before assigning tasks, he always liked to play tricks and surprise them, or come up with task names that were hard to believe.
But clearly, this time they were all wrong. Director Li spread his hands and smiled innocently, "The tasks have already been assigned by Director Wu."
Everyone: Completely confused, EXM???
"When???" Kai looked at Director Li incredulously, "Did I lose my memory? I have no recollection!"
Meng Han lowered her head, pondering slightly, "Could it be..."
"What did Director Wu say when we were leaving?" An Yi offered a guess.
Bi Xia’s starry eyes narrowed slightly, lowering his head as he began to recall the events of the morning when they gathered.
In the morning after makeup, the door of the makeup room she shared with Xu Renfei was knocked on. Director Wu appeared at the door, chatted a bit, then told them to gather downstairs.
What did Director Wu say again...
Bi Xia frowned slightly, thinking hard,
"Little Jiu’er," Xu Renfei lightly tapped Bi Xia and whispered, "Let’s not overthink this, sometimes the simpler answer is the right one."
"You figured it out?" Bi Xia asked.
Xu Renfei shook his head promptly, "Nope."
Bi Xia: ...
"Then how do you know the simpler answer is the right one?"
Xu Renfei grinned, "I’m just guessing! Think about it, since we’re playing a game, it surely can’t be something too brainy. If the task was assigned inadvertently, it must be simple enough that we usually wouldn’t bother remembering it."
Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "You’ve analyzed it this far, and you still haven’t figured it out?"
Xu Renfei waved a big hand, "Intelligence isn’t my thing, so this part depends on you!"
