Chapter 118: Love Variety Show Strategy System (36)

If she had only been suspicious in her heart before, then, following the various activities arranged to her liking, if she still couldn't guess Coach Guo's intentions, Xie Yang would have lived through so many lifetimes in vain.

"You guessed it?"

The final social activity—the mixed-gender beach volleyball fun match—concluded.

When Liu Ying took her to the dormitory to shower and change, she met Xie Yang's amused gaze, and the crisp, decisive attacker on the court scratched her head in embarrassment.

"The coach said you are a rare talent that only appears once in a century, and it would be a real pity not to recruit you, so she wanted to make one more effort... However, the coach also said that it ultimately depends on your own wishes; if you really don't want to play professionally, we won't force you..."

Xie Yang thought about it seriously and said, "It's not that I don't want to..."

"Then you agree to play professionally? That's great!"

Before Xie Yang could finish, Liu Ying jumped three feet high, then patted her shoulder, and said with irrepressible joy:

"Sister Xie, no! Little Sister Yang, we'll be fellow disciples from now on. I joined the team before you, so you have to call me Senior Sister, hehehe..."

After laughing smugly for a few moments, she urged Xie Yang to go shower, then turned and rushed out of the dormitory building, running all the way while shouting with a laugh: "Coach—Coach—Xie Yang agreed—"

Her voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the entire base.

"..."

Xie Yang rubbed her forehead.

She hadn't finished speaking yet.

She had originally thought that after she finished recording this variety show, successfully retrieved the Love Variety Show Strategy System that needed to be sent back for repairs, and completed the task for this small world, she would be willing to join the beach volleyball team.

Anyway, there was nothing left for her to do later, and since she wasn't in a rush to go to the next plane for her tasks, contributing to the country's sports career would be fine.

But right now, she wasn't a free agent; firstly, the task wasn't finished yet; secondly, the breach of contract fee was too expensive, and with her current net worth, she couldn't afford to pay it.

The first reason was inconvenient to make public.

Therefore, when Coach Guo rushed over excitedly to make her fill out the forms to avoid any complications, Xie Yang brought up the second reason.

"Breach of contract fee? How much? Let me see if I can get the team to pay it. Or I can negotiate with the relevant departments. World competitions are more important than a Love Variety Show anyway. If the country wants someone, can the production team really refuse to let her go?"

After Coach Guo finished speaking, she turned to find the director to negotiate.

The director: "..."

The director was so scared his hands shook.

Wh-what!

Xie Yang wants to quit the recording?

How could that be!

Xie Yang is currently the most popular and sought-after female guest on "Romantic Cabin".

When Lin Xiaoning left, although it was a bit troublesome to contact a new guest, the show's ratings were not affected at all.

But if it were Xie Yang who left...

The director thought about the consequences, and his head shook like a rattle-drum.

"No! The show is half-recorded; without special circumstances, you cannot quit at will. Otherwise, it's not just a matter of the breach of contract fee."

"Then what other problem is there?" Coach Guo frowned, "I've watched a bit of your show, isn't it just men and women pairing up to play games and go on dates? There's no difficulty to it, can't you keep recording without one Xie Yang?"

"..."

That's not how you put it.

Without Xie Yang, the show could continue recording, but the ratings might not be guaranteed to be as good as they are now.

"Coach Guo, look, we've already recorded half of it, and there are only ten days left at most, can you let Xie Yang finish recording..."

Coach Guo knitted her thick brows: "Ten days left? That long! In ten days, you could play a full round-robin tournament."

"..."

The director bit his back teeth.

So that was it; he had wondered why the strictly managed National Team training base was so open-minded—warmly inviting show guests to visit and look around, and even allowing their staff to follow and film; it was too easy-going!

It turns out they weren't easy-going at all! They clearly had ulterior motives!

The social event wasn't for nothing, and look, before the day was even over, they started dreaming—they actually wanted to poach their show's pillar guest!

Damn it!

If the person standing in front of him wasn't a coach from the national sports delegation, he would have already started cursing.

Damn it, not only were they poaching people for his show, but they were planning to take the person away today?

Variety show directors really have no human rights, damn it!

But since these were people from the National Team, he didn't dare to confront them head-on, so he had to try a roundabout approach—he looked at Xie Yang with pleading eyes, hoping she would say something.

Xie Yang sighed in her heart and couldn't help but miss the Shenhao System that had been sent back for repairs; if it were here, would she still need to worry about the breach of contract fee?

The men's team coach leaned into Coach Guo's ear and said: "I think Little Xie is in a difficult position; the breach of contract clause is probably not easy to deal with. Why not let her finish recording? It's only ten days left anyway, and with her talent, catching up won't take any time at all, right? Don't push too hard right now; if you make it too difficult and she doesn't want to come anymore, you won't even have a place to cry."

"..."

Coach Guo's heart skipped a beat, thinking that made sense, so she cleared her throat and said: "Ahem, Little Xie, since this show can't do without you, then you'll have to work hard and help them finish recording. I'll take you to fill out the forms in a bit, and I'll help you complete the team entry procedures over the next few days. Remember to report for duty in ten days."

Seeing Coach Guo take the initiative to loosen up, the director let out a huge sigh of relief: "Yes, yes, yes! This is the best arrangement! Teacher Xie, then go with the coach to fill out the forms; we are about to finish up here too, and we'll wait for you on the bus."

The other guests and staff were dumbfounded.

Weren't they here to socialize with the National Beach Volleyball Team?

What?

Xie Yang was scouted by the National Beach Volleyball Team and is going to join the National Team?

Xie—fresh graduate of the Art Academy—half a foot into the entertainment industry—looks plain—Yang, in the blink of an eye, became a member of the National Team and will represent the country in world-class competitions that attract global attention, such as the Asian Games and the Olympic Games...

My god! Even a scriptwriter wouldn't dare write it like this!

"Ahem, actually, the time she came to Shazhou Island with me, she played a friendly match against the men and women of the beach volleyball team. I had this premonition back then, but I didn't expect it to come true."

While waiting for Xie Yang on the bus, Yichen spoke up to break the eerie silence.

Everyone: "..."

Fine!

Although they were not at the scene for that match and did not watch it from beginning to end, they had all scrolled through video clips of it online; Xie Yang certainly had some real skills.

"So, does this mean we'll be able to see Xie Yang when we watch the Olympics in the future?"

"Oh my, then I'll have to get her to sign an autograph for me to keep for it to appreciate in value later."

"Let's have her sign one for each of us, right on the photo we take with her."

Everyone digested this explosive news that would definitely hit the top of the trending list if released, and began to joke around, accepting it well.

Only Xie Danni, with a sweet smile on her face, cursed Xie Yang over and over again in her heart.

What kind of dog shit luck did that little bitch have! To actually catch the eye of the National Beach Volleyball Team!

This is outrageous!

With the National Team backing her in the future, wouldn't Father also pay a bit more attention to her?

No way!

She had to drive her out before the family found out about this news! It would be best to have Father cancel her inheritance rights!

A bastard daughter who couldn't be brought out in public, yet she dared to dream of fighting for the family property with her? Keep dreaming!
