Chapter 644: Immortals Stand Like Hemp in Rows!
Zhou Ye: One after another, they're all showing off.
Realizing that her presence on this show was about to fade into total irrelevance, Zhou Ye decided she couldn't keep going like this!
That detestable Tian Xiwei — she even resorted to eating dog biscuits to steal the camera?
Isn't that just way too underhanded?!
And then there was Meng Jie yesterday, dropping those "shock-and-awe" lines and tossing the dog around — her presence was maxed out~
Zhou Ye thought it over briefly and reached a conclusion: only Tongtong-jie is a good person!
From her perspective, from the start of filming until now, it really did seem like Li Yitong was the only one who hadn't stirred up trouble — of course, the thing where everyone hid in bed together didn't count, since everyone was in on that, so it canceled out.
If the evil little kitty knew Zhou Ye had just handed her a "good person" card, she'd probably be unable to stop herself from conjuring up a few question marks.
Huh? She's a good person now?
Even if she had to evaluate herself, she'd admit she was pretty obviously the bad type~
The reason she hadn't pulled any weird stunts was purely because there was no need to.
She'd come on this show with a promotional mission, so even if she had zero interaction with Bai Liang throughout filming, the editing team could still make the two of them bubble over with pink~
That kind of move is pretty much a basic skill for a lot of variety shows.
Doesn't matter if it's black or red — they can edit it into yellow or pink.
Known as the "Montage CP" trick.
Back in the day, when Dilraba and Lu Han were on Running Man, they got hit with this move plenty of times.
So the evil little kitty didn't need to pull any weird stunts — she just needed to put a bit more effort into her styling and outfits, and show off her cute crescent-moon eyes properly.
Though relatively speaking, as filming progressed, she did become a bit more proactive than the first day — mainly because Meng Jie had gotten under her skin.
Sometimes there's just no helping it.
When you run into a talent monster, you give it everything you've got and still can't win.
After Meng Jie pulled off that big stunt of "My mom told you to behave well," she immediately went for an encore!
During an utterly unremarkable dinner, Meng Jiezheng was helping clear the table with the Second Princess, chatting with Li Xueqing on and off.
At first, they were still talking about the food.
About whether the same dishes could be eaten for two meals.
Meng Jie seemed to be enjoying her food — she was still chewing as she casually tossed out: "Of course you can eat the same dish twice, and you can love the same person twice too, baby~"
Li Xueqing was a little flustered by that "baby," but what Meng Jie had brought up really piqued her interest!
"Can you really?"
"I can!" Meng Jie said with great certainty.
"Then have you ever gone back to an ex?"
What a great question! What an absolutely fantastic question!
Meng Jie immediately nodded Seeing Meng Meng, "Yes! Absolutely! Six times in five years."
When she said that, she had actually put a little thought into it — she wasn't being fully truthful, because if she'd reported the exact number of times she'd gone back to an ex, it would've come across as pretty outrageous.
Still, though she said she'd thought it through a bit, she hadn't thought it through completely.
Li Xueqing was already a bit numb — is this really something I'm supposed to be hearing, baby?
And damn, five years — the moment you throw out that number, I swear I could almost pinpoint who that person is just by glancing at your Baidu Baike page!
She really didn't want to get it that fast! If only her stupid brain would slow down a little!
For a moment, even Li Xueqing — whose mouth was normally so sharp on stage — was struck silent, not quite daring to keep the topic going.
But right next to Meng Jie, there was one who wasn't afraid of dying!
The Second Princess, who was already getting used to the rhythm of filming and adapting more and more, didn't care about any of that.
If Meng Jie herself dared to say it, of course she dared to keep asking — and with such an interesting topic, how could she possibly let it go?
"Who'd you get back together with six times in five years?" the Second Princess asked, her tone surprised and intensely curious.
"Uh—"
This time even Meng Jie was stumped, but she still said honestly: "I definitely can't say who it is, baby, otherwise there'll be trouble."
Seeing Meng Jie point at the camera, the Second Princess immediately signaled that she "got it"!
But she was still very curious, and couldn't help pressing for more details about the "ex."
Meng Jie answered in a selective, pick-and-choose sort of way.
It looked like she was holding back, but in reality she was already being incredibly generous — after all, how many young female celebrities would share their love lives this openly? Most of them would love nothing more than to slap a "never dated" label on themselves~
The most outrageous ones even claim in their thirties — and their fans dare to back them up — that they have zero experience in that area.
And while the two of them were wildly spilling secrets over there, Li Xueqing, unable to resist, carefully edged her way into the conversation — and simultaneously started feeling sorry for the production crew.
Content this juicy, if it aired — no need to even think about it — it'd absolutely be a massive hit!
But the question is, do they dare to air it?
Based on the huge pile of follow-up details Meng Jie gave the Second Princess, plus the bits she accidentally let slip herself — if that person isn't Bai Liang, Li Xueqing would dare to chop her own head off!
Likewise, the netizens would absolutely be able to "arrest" Bai Liang with a hundred percent certainty.
Production crew:
Damn it, this is clearly bullying me, Fatty Hu!
What could they do? Of course, they were responsible for cleaning up Meng Jie's mess.
A lot of the content definitely had to be cut, but that line "six times in five years" could be kept.
Meng Jie had shared so generously — not airing any of it at all would be a disservice to her contribution!
In fact, at the very start of filming, Meng Jie had indeed left the guest lineup and some of the crew with labels like "scheming" and "green tea bitch."
But as filming progressed, plenty of people had come to realize — she just genuinely didn't think before she spoke!
Of course, that doesn't mean she had no little schemes at all — Meng Jie wasn't that naive and innocent either.
It's just that her so-called "playing smart" was something anyone could see right through, so everyone really had a hard time putting her in the category of a bad woman.
When you play a little trick and everyone can see it, how is a person like that supposed to be sinister?
Though they say a villain's brain-twisting can't beat a fool's sudden flash of inspiration.
But that sudden flash of inspiration also comes in two kinds: one truly can cause trouble, and the other truly can draw laughs.
She spends half a day earnestly playing tricks, and the final effect is just to give you a chuckle.
This is Meng Jie.
Just then, the sound of a motorcycle suddenly rang out from outside. Looking out the window, they saw that Bai Liang had somehow gotten his hands on a motorcycle from somewhere, and Li Yitong and the others were gathered around watching.
The production crew also had a "finally, there you are" feeling about it — the Misses all had to "show off like crazy" on the show, so was Bai Bai Daxian finally going to make his move?!
As for Bai Liang's story with the internal combustion engine, there's really no need to explain anything — the first breakout photo of his after entering the industry was made together with a car, and credit here must go to Mercedes-Benz's sponsorship.
At the same time, there's also that gnashing-teeth line that came out of Han Han's mouth and has since spread throughout the entire entertainment circle — "Don't let Bai Liang touch a car" — which also speaks to his fate with the thing.
As for motorcycles, the behind-the-scenes footage related to "Better Days" also has records of it~
So classmate Zhou Ye is very excited!
He has quite a feeling of "finally it's my turn."
