Chapter 245: Chapter 245 - 245: The Third Episode of the Program

After the meal, the group of people left quickly.

Chen Lan wasn’t around, so Song Qingyou could only hitch a ride back to the hotel.

Director Luo’s car was big enough. She had wanted to go back with Director Luo and the others, but as soon as she walked over, the last seat was snatched by someone else.

Song Qingyou had no choice but to get into Yu Muhuai’s car.

The two of them came out relatively late. When they got into the car, the others had already gone far away.

Song Qingyou rolled down the window and looked back.

“What’s wrong?” Yu Muhuai also turned his head.

“It seems like someone is secretly taking photos of us.”

Song Qingyou’s senses were sharper than the average person’s, so she shouldn’t be wrong in this situation.

“Director Luo and the others have already left. If they take a photo of us at this time, it must be a photo of us alone. I’ll get out of the car to take a look.”

As she spoke, she was about to get out of the car and put Zhizhi on the seat.

Yu Muhuai pressed against the door. “I’ll go over.”

Song Qingyou nodded and hugged the cat that was about to jump out of the window.

Yu Muhuai went straight to where Song Qingyou pointed and found a car around the corner.

He walked over and knocked on the car window.

The car was in chaos, and soon a young man poked his head out.

“Brother Yu.” The young man smiled awkwardly and greeted him. “Actually, I didn’t manage to capture anything. If you don’t want me to film, I’ll leave immediately!”

“Give me the camera,” Yu Muhuai said expressionlessly.

The paparazzi hesitated for a while before reluctantly handing over the camera.

“Brother Yu, just delete the photos in the camera. Don’t destroy my camera. It’s not easy for us either…”

“You don’t look old. Are you new to this industry?” Yu Muhuai asked instead of answering.

“Yes, yes.”

“The photo is not bad.”

“Th-thank you?”

The paparazzi thanked him with a sad face.

No matter how good it was, wouldn’t it still be deleted by you?

“I’m not taking the camera.” Yu Muhuai suddenly said.

“Yu, Brother Yu, don’t-”

“I’ll return it to you when the movie is released.”

“Really?” The young man was pleasantly surprised.

“I won’t delete the photos either. I can let you post them, but you can’t tell anyone, understand?”

“Understood, understood!” As long as there was a chance to take back the camera, he would definitely agree.

Not to mention that he could post the photos. It was simply a pie falling from the sky.

Satisfied, Yu Muhuai put the camera in his pocket and took out his phone. “Let’s exchange contact information.”

Yu Muhuai returned to the car after the two of them finished talking.

“How was it?”

“I saw him delete the photo.”

“That’s good.”

Yu Muhuai looked sideways. “You don’t want to have any scandals with me. Do you hate me?”

“I don’t want to have any scandals with others either.” Song Qingyou said, “It’s very troublesome.”

Yu Muhuai smiled.” Very few people in the industry think that way. Most people use this as a way to create hype.”

Song Qingyou didn’t respond.

The next morning, the third episode of the All-Class Challenge began recording.

Just as dawn broke, Song Qingyou received a call from the program team, saying that this episode was completely different from the previous two episodes and that they had to leave early.

Including Song Qingyou, seven people were “tricked” out of their homes by the production team. Their phones and wallets were all taken away.

Then, the program team staff gave each of them an extremely crude map.

The cameraman introduced, “The red circle on the map is the destination of this episode.”

“You have three hours to reach your destination. There will be a penalty for being late.”

“Is this place in the suburbs of Beijing City?” Song Qingyou asked with a frown.

There were a few mountain names marked on the map. Looking at the crooked route, it seemed to be at the foot of a mountain.

“No,” the cameraman chuckled. “It’s in the northwest of the neighboring province.”

Song Qingyou was speechless.

“The neighboring province?”

“Yes.”

“Three hours?”

“Yes.”

“You’re not paying?”

“Yes.”

The cameraman responded three times and then said, “Director Wei asked us to tell you to accept your fate. You can’t beat the production team!”

Song Qingyou’s forehead twitched. “And then?”

“Then, as long as you are willing to admit defeat, the production team can send you to your destination. However, this means that you owe the production team 1,000 yuan. In this episode, you have to earn 1,000 yuan, or else…”

The cameraman did not continue.

However, Song Qingyou knew that Wei Zhengrong wouldn’t let them pass so easily. The punishment might be insane.

“1,000 yuan? Isn’t that too much?” she couldn’t help but complain.

“Even if we take a plane, we don’t need so much money, right?”

“The director said that he will be in charge of his show.” The cameraman said confidently.

Song Qingyou understood. The director was clearly taking revenge!

The cameraman chuckled again. “What do you think? Do you want a 1,000 debt package?” he asked.

“Don’t even think about it.”

Song Qingyou held the map and walked towards the station. She asked the person behind her, “Among us, did anyone choose this debt package?”

“The guests are all separated. We don’t know about their respective situations.”

Song Qingyou nodded and walked faster and faster.

The staff quickly followed. “Why are you going to the station? You can’t take a train without money!”

“I’ll go and see if the others are there.”

If the seven of them could go together, they might be able to save a lot of time and money.

“What if they aren’t?” the cameraman asked again.

“If they’re not here, then 1’11 earn money and go to the destination.”

Song Qingyou’s answer was so casual that the people behind her were curious about how she was going to make money.

Then, Song Qingyou walked around the station and didn’t see anyone else.

She didn’t know that among Jiang Xuyan’s group, only Yu Muhuai was thinking of a way to get to the station.

Therefore, Song Qingyou gave up on bringing the others and went to the nearby mall.

Before the staff could ask her what she was doing at the mall, Song Qingyou successfully found the mall manager. After chatting for a few minutes, she got a chance to perform for an hour.

The cameraman was stunned. “You know this manager?”

“I’ve come here for commercial performances before. He has a deep impression of me,” Song Qingyou said.

“How long ago?”

“When I first debuted.”

That was before Song Qingyou became famous.

To be able to use such a long-standing relationship, Song Qingyou was indeed worthy of her reputation.

The cameraman silently gave her a thumbs up.

At the same time, Jiang Xuyan and Yu Muhuai also started to “perform” on the streets. Unfortunately, they earned too little by performing. In order not to be late, they still owed the production team a sum of money.

As for Zhao Yingnan, Xu Xingzhou, Tang Zinian, and Shu Ling, they basically hitched a ride there.

Because the hitchhiking was too random, in the end, the four of them were all late like the others..
