Chapter 319

Shang Yiran:?

Why did he have a bad premonition?

However, before he could speak, Xu Tian said directly.

"If I have to choose someone, then I'll choose Shang Yiran."

There was dead silence all around, and only after a few seconds did a chorus of wails erupt.

"Mr. Xu, you're breaking the rules!"

"How does Shang Yiran count as the female lead?"

"Damn it!" Yu Jiaojiao looked like her plan had failed. "If I had known, I would have limited it to artists within Qingguo! I shouldn't have let Shang Yiran from headquarters find a loophole."

Shang Yiran:...

I didn't want to find such a loophole either, okay?

"Ahem..." Xu Tian saw Shang Yiran's helpless expression and suppressed a laugh. "Who says he can't count as the female lead? Can't a man dress as a woman?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received an eye-knife from the person beside him.

"Sigh... I thought there would be some gossip..." Yu Jiaojiao sighed regretfully. "Fine, since you chose Shang Yiran, then say a line to him in the tone of a domineering CEO. Just say, 'I've contracted this fish pond for you.'"

"Shang Yiran, I've contracted this fish pond for you," Xu Tian said the line very perfunctorily.

Shang Yiran also cooperated by making a "gagging" motion, which made the others burst into laughter.

Not seeing the battle for the female lead between Murong Xue and Nie Jingjing left everyone present feeling a bit disappointed.

They didn't have much interest in stirring up trouble afterward.

In fact, Shang Yiran wasn't surprised by this result; after all, Xu Tian had a girlfriend, and it wouldn't be good to have a scandal with anyone, so he just went along with it.

It seemed like this result was a happy ending for everyone, but someone in the private room was unhappy.

Murong Xue slowly loosened her grip on the hem of her skirt; although she felt relieved, she didn't know why a corner of her heart felt faintly disappointed.

Murong Xue, what kind of nonsense are you thinking about!

She patted her cheeks and walked out of the room, using the bathroom as an excuse.

Meanwhile, Nie Jingjing had a gloomy face, as if someone owed her millions.

Yu Jiaojiao teased her by nudging her shoulder.

"What are you angry about? He didn't choose you, but at least he didn't choose Murong Xue either, right?"

"This shows that Agent Xu treats you two artists equally."

To hell with treating them equally!

Nie Jingjing rolled her eyes hard.

She didn't want to be treated equally!

She, Nie Jingjing, was one of a kind; how could she be mentioned in the same breath as that little girl Murong Xue?

Wait, why did she care whether Xu Tian chose her or not?

She only approached Xu Tian to get the Hoodie God's contact information, right?

To her, Xu Tian was just a tool!

Why was she disappointed? Why was she sad?

Her recent abnormal behavior gave Nie Jingjing a sense of crisis.

It must be that damn competitive spirit!

It wasn't that she cared about Xu Tian; she just wanted to compete with that girl Murong Xue.

Nie Jingjing kept comforting herself.

She just had a strong competitive spirit and didn't want to lose!

It was all this damn game's fault!

If Yu Jiaojiao hadn't suggested playing the King Game, and if she hadn't proposed such a brainless question, she wouldn't have been so abnormal.

"Still want to play?" Yu Jiaojiao didn't get the answer she wanted and felt a bit bored. "How about we just sing some songs?"

"Play, why wouldn't we play?" Nie Jingjing suddenly looked at her, flames seemingly burning in her eyes. "We've only played three rounds; wouldn't it be a pity to end it now?"

"Uh..." Yu Jiaojiao looked at Nie Jingjing, and a chill suddenly ran down her spine. "Um, I want to get something to eat..."

As she spoke, she stood up, wanting to slip away.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave; tell me what you want to eat, and I'll have someone get it for you." Nie Jingjing pushed Yu Jiaojiao back onto the sofa and ordered the young boy who had been singing with her earlier, "Go get her something to eat."

"Sister Jiaojiao, what would you like to eat?" the young boy asked.

"Whatever..." Yu Jiaojiao said listlessly.

The young boy brought her a plate of salad, but under the pressure of Nie Jingjing's aura, everything Yu Jiaojiao ate tasted like wax.

In the fourth round of the King Game, a somewhat famous male singer was chosen as the King, and his request was standard.

The fifth and sixth rounds had nothing new.

Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly dull, in the seventh round, the young boy who had been singing with Nie Jingjing drew the King card.

Before the boy could speak, Nie Jingjing wrapped her arm around his shoulder quite domineeringly and said:

"Have number 7 kiss number 5."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Jiaojiao's face turned black.

"Nie Jingjing, did you see my card?"

She was number 7!

Based on her understanding of Nie Jingjing, if she hadn't known her card, she definitely wouldn't have said that.

"How could I have seen it?" Nie Jingjing spread her hands innocently. "Don't be a sore loser. Who is number 5?"

Yu Jiaojiao looked desperately at the sofa next to them and saw a middle-aged uncle from the company's production department silently raise his hand.

Yu Jiaojiao:...

Fine, you win!

Making her take the initiative to kiss a man was simply destroying her persona.

However, she was the one who proposed the game, so now that it was her turn, she couldn't back out.

She could only reluctantly stand up, walk over to the middle-aged uncle, bend down, and quickly give him a kiss.

She let out a sigh of relief and, with a blushing face, quickly scurried back to her seat.

However, what she didn't expect was that this was just the beginning.

Eighth round.

Nie Jingjing was the King.

Consequently, Yu Jiaojiao was forced to dance a Yangge dance with a trainee, and it was even recorded on video.

Ninth round.

Nie Jingjing was still the King.

"It can't be me this time, right?" Yu Jiaojiao covered her card tightly.

It was a pity that Nie Jingjing had seen it anyway.

"Number 8, go outside the room, find someone, and confess to them."

"Nie Jingjing!" Yu Jiaojiao finally couldn't help but explode; she didn't care about her "little white rabbit" image in front of outsiders anymore, and with hands on her hips, she shouted at her, "What on earth did I do to offend you that you have to treat me like this?"

She couldn't figure out why Nie Jingjing could see through the card she drew every single time.

"It's just a game, why take it so seriously?" Nie Jingjing said with a cold face.

"You..." Yu Jiaojiao was on the verge of tears; she had proposed the game, so she had to play it through even if she had to do it on her knees.

"Alright, you can mess around as much as you want among yourselves, but you are all public figures, so be mindful of your influence," Xu Tian glanced at Nie Jingjing. "And don't disturb other guests' dining."

"Agent Xu, you're such a good person!" Yu Jiaojiao was moved to tears.

Seeing Xu Tian defending her, Nie Jingjing's resentment grew even more.

"I see it's getting late, everyone should head back and rest early," Xu Tian tugged at Nie Jingjing's arm and lowered his voice. "What's wrong with you today? Why are you targeting Yu Jiaojiao?"
