Chapter 751 Sorry, I Don’t Have Such Virtues
Liu Jiejing was right. They had really planned to make the guests too embarrassed this episode, so they had set up NPCs to come out and help them complete the missions, such street performances from which they could receive financial rewards.
But Liu Jiejing exposed them, which made them embarrassed.
The rules of the game had been established, so it was necessary to respect the rules of the game. If everyone thought like her, and the setting of the travel expenses was just an illusion. And everyone did not respect the rules, then what was the point of the game?
A director mumbled, “Liu Jiejing is the best actress. As the saying goes, actors have a strong sense of faith. Why are they so indifferent to the rules of the game?”
The other directors looked at each other and did not make a sound.
On the screen, Liu Jiejing took a sip of coffee and slowly continued, “So, we chose the best restaurant by the beach. However, the beach here is a little shabby. Even the best restaurant we chose could not be compared to the one we went to on Mali Island.
“But there’s nothing we can do about it. We can only choose the taller one among the short ones and make do with it.
“The taste of the food was okay. It’s just some home-cooked dishes. It was not expensive either. It was just around 200 yuan.
Liu Jiejing was talking to herself. The other guests were feeling awkward. They did not know how to respond. Hearing her superior tone, she sounded like the empress dowager, criticizing their lifestyle and ridiculing their behavior of saving money as if it was a joke.
Deng Bochao’s expression immediately changed. He turned his head to the side, not wanting to see Liu Jiejing’s superior face. He even scuttled to the side, hoping to stay away from her.
Sitting next to Liu Jiejing was Yu Zhengchu, and on the other side was Ye Jie. Ye Jie was sweet and modest, and she was liked by Liu Jiejing. That was why she could sit quietly next to Liu Jiejing.
But Ye Jie, after seeing everyone’s reaction, she did not dare to forcefully suck up to Liu Jiejing anymore. She could only mediate the situation, “It seems that Sister Jing is a person who has high expectations of herself, be it in acting or in life.”
Yu Zhengchu jokingly said, “She also has high expectations of the people around her. For example, me. It’s a pity that I’m still in training. I hope that I can satisfy Madam Liu in the future.”
Liu Jiejing said, “That’s true. You still have a long way to go in your training.”
Yu Zhengchu was not annoyed. He smiled and said, “Isn’t a lifetime enough?”
Only then did Liu Jiejing become a little shy and did not say anything.
The few of them followed suit and booed, teasing Yu Zhengchu’s display of affections.
Deng Bochao thought, ‘Yu Zhengchu is so honest. If I were to be together with an arrogant person such as Liu Jiejing, I would probably be bullied and belittled by Liu Jiejing often. Furthermore, my reputation was not as good as Liu Jiejing’s, perhaps Liu Jiejing acts all high and mighty at home.’
Jiang Yu did not say a word. There was nothing to talk to about people like this who loved to show off. If it were not for variety shows, such people would not even appear by her side. It was too eye-catching.
Jiang Xingyi also ignored Liu Jiejing. He hoped that after the program ended, she would not have the leisure to watch the replay. Otherwise, she would probably be ashamed of her words today, right?
Oh, that would not happen either.
The Best Actress’s nose was always pointed up to the sky.
Jiang Yu stood up and said, “I’m going to the washroom.”
The waiter showed her the way.
Seeing Jiang Yu’s figure disappear down the corridor, Liu Jiejing finally realized that she had misspoken. The corners of her eyes drooped as she exclaimed and covered her mouth, “Did I say something wrong just now? Did I hurt my little sister’s pride?”
Deng Bochao was embarrassed. Not only did she hurt Jiang Yu, but she had also attacked everyone present. Why was she pretending now? The acting skills of this best actress were just so-so.
Bu Hanhai said softly, “Sister Yu is kind-hearted. I don’t think she will argue with you, Sister Jing.”
However, Liu Jiejing was not satisfied with this answer.
Did she need Jiang Yu to not argue with her? Did she still care for Jiang Yu’s opinion?
Moreover, by saying this, was Bu Hanhai not indirectly saying that she had indeed said something wrong?
Liu Jiejing’s expression darkened. “Kids these days can be hurt by just a simple sentence and hide in the toilet. They’re too weak.”
Jiang Xingyi was originally cupping his chin and thinking about how to adjust the problem in the music score that Jiang Yu had pointed out. He did not plan to give Liu Jiejing any scenes at all. However, when he saw that she was acting again, he was furious.
He snorted and said coldly, “What? Do you want to discipline my little sister for me?”
Liu Jiejing shrugged. “That’s not what I meant.”
“Some people are just too bold.” Jiang Xingyi’s expression was cold. He showed Liu Jiejing no mercy. “Let’s not talk about how my little sister would not be hurt by such ridiculous words. It’s quite ridiculous for some people to act by themselves.”
Jiang Xingyi directly poked Liu Jiejing’s heart. “Oh, if you want to ask me who these people are, I don’t like to beat around the bush.
“I’m talking about you, Queen Liu.”
His eyes were fixed on her, and his pupils were dark.
Liu Jiejing’s heart skipped a beat, and she said angrily, “Is this how you treat your seniors?”
The mockery on Jiang Xingyi’s face became even more intense.
“Some people can become seniors because of their qualifications, while others rely on their old age.
“You rely on your old age to sell your qualifications. Are you trying to make me abide by the virtue of respecting the elderly and caring for the young in China? I’m sorry,” Jiang Xingyi said firmly. “I don’t have such virtues.”
Liu Jiejing’s face was filled with shame and anger. She almost slammed the table and stood up, but was held back by Yu Zhengchu.
Liu Jiejing sat back down heavily on her chair and crossed her arms. “I finally understand why Jiang Yu acted that way. You set a good example.”
“Then you’re wrong.” Jiang Xingyi glanced at her. “I didn’t teach my little sister such a good attitude.
“If I really taught her, I would tell her…
“Don’t worry about me. How can you return what others say about you?”
Liu Jiejing slammed the table. “Are you trying to go against me?”
Jiang Xingyi crossed his legs. “Yes.”
Liu Jiejing pointed at Jiang Xingyi and said, “This variety show, either you quit or I quit!”
Jiang Xingyi did not care. “Do you think I’m afraid?”
The atmosphere between the two of them was tense. It felt like a fight was about to break out in the next second.
Yu Zhengchu hurriedly tried to persuade Liu Jiejing, “Forget it, forget it. It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to go to this extent. We’re all in the same variety show-“
Before he could finish his sentence…
Smack!
Liu Jiejing raised her hand and slapped Yu Zhengchu on the face!
This change happened so quickly and everyone was caught off guard!
Liu Jiejing scolded, “Do you still think I’m going over the line? You’re my husband. It’s fine if you don’t help me, but why are you helping others?”
