Do You Still Hate Her? 29 – “Young Lady, I’ve come to take you home.”
Song Zeqian raised a hand and directly covered his forehead, his face full of speechlessness towards the arrangement by the program team.
Jiang Jing, similarly, had a face full of helplessness, but she had also become accustomed to the series of tricky maneuvers by the program team.
The Normal People Team remained silent and accepted this arrangement.
On the other side, the Shang Lu Will Win Team.
Ye Lu looked at Shang Lu in incomprehension, no longer mocking as before, his voice filled with condemnation : “Is your sense of humor really that low?”
Who would want to accept such a gift!?
Shang Lu also looked at the three members of the Shang Lu Will Win Team with the same incomprehension and asked, “I think my sense of humor should be higher than you three, but why are you able to save so much money?”
As this question from Shang Lu came out, the faces of the three of them all changed.
[Shang Lu also couldn’t understand why she was being compared to them, hahaha]
[This question made the three of them recall the fear of being dominated by those six bottles of water]
[After finally winning once, putting in so much effort, yet losing so miserably, pfft]
Ye Lu didn’t answer directly, but tried to brush it off by saying, “Of course, it’s because we’re smart!”
“It’s because he’s smart.” Ou Yi deliberately emphasized the word ‘smart.’
The two exchanged a glance, the meaning in their eyes filled with dissatisfaction towards each other, as if they were about to start a fight in the next second.
Shang Lu couldn’t understand the silent riddle they were playing, so she looked at Lin Yanyan, hoping for an answer.
“Because… *hiccup*!”
Lin Yanyan had only said one word when she couldn’t hold back a hiccup, and then she covered her face in embarrassment and anger.
Finally, through Ou Yi’s narration, Shang Lu finally understood Ye Lu’s ‘smart’ plan. She praised, “In terms of the game rules, this is indeed a good approach. If it weren’t for a twist from the program team later, you would have won.”
Shanglu’s praise caused Ye Lu to instantly puff up his chest proudly and say, “Listen, listen to this! This is what it means to gain recognition from your opponent! This is true excellence! I deserve every bit of it!”
Lin Yanyan rolled her eyes at him, clearly not agreeing.
Ou Yi looked at Shang Lu with admiration and asked, “Does this mean, Teacher Shang, that you had already figured it out and deliberately didn’t take this segment seriously?”
Shang Lu immediately shook her head to deny it, “No, I didn’t. I just didn’t have the ability to come up with such a ‘smart’ method.”
Ou Yi nodded in understanding, “That means you relied on luck, and luck is also a part of one’s ability!”
Shang Lu : “…Thank you.”
Netizens commented :
[Shang Lu still seems not quite used to Ou Yi’s praises, but she’s already numb enough to say thank you, hahaha.]
[Ou Yi will never let any bit of flattery for Shang Lu fall to the ground.]
[As a passerby, I’ve changed my view of Ou Yi through this show.]
[I’m Ou Yi’s true fan, I’m puzzled after watching this show, but Ou Yi complimenting Shang Lu with flattery does make him cuter than usual, hahaha!]
The program team quickly gave them another simple task, which was to promote the gifts they had chosen to the audience in the livestream room. The reward was 400 yuan, which was equivalent to paying off the debt.
The Normal People Team went first.
Jiang Jing handed the other five a gift box each and said, “We only have 200 yuan left, so we’ve collectively chosen keychains priced at 39 yuan.”
Each person opened their own gift box. Although they were all keychains, the designs were completely different.
Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan’s keychains seemed to go together: an adorable little dog and a small cat, both lazily curled up, wearing a small hat with the character 福 1fortune.
Lin Yanyan noticed this and immediately smiled, moving closer to Shang Lu, waving the keychain and saying, “Ours are a pair!”
Song Zeqian directly addressed the livestream audience, saying, “A pair of keychains with a little cat and a little dog. They’re suitable for friends and lovers. Even though they’re white, they’re easy to clean—just wipe them with a tissue.”
The remaining people also opened their keychains and found that they all had the same design : a small tiger, three of them exactly alike.
Song Zeqian touched his nose and said, “This is for fairness. Both Jiang Jing and I thought this design looked the best.”
So they just took three identical ones to avoid any preferential treatment.
Jiang Jing then continued what Song Zeqian had said, “This year is the Year of the Tiger, and we hope everyone will have smooth sailing.”
They barely passed this challenge.
Next, the Shang Lu Will Win Team began to showcase the gifts they had chosen.
They had 800 yuan left, and the neck massager Shang Lu received was valued at 499 yuan.
Ye Lu shrugged directly and said, “I intervened. I believe this gift fund should be distributed fairly among everyone, but I can’t stop them.”
Others : “…”
—Alright, you don’t need to explain anymore. We’ve all figured out this outcome.
[Hahaha, Ye Lu really took on a lot in this episode, forced to grow rapidly and learn how to handle water]
[Shang Lu received a gift that is more valuable than the other three combined]
[It’s blatant favoritism, what Shang Lu received… is actually a group pet script?]
[It’s not to the extent of being a group pet, she just had an enthusiastic fangirl before, and now she has an enthusiastic fanboy]
Shang Lu directly hung up the massager, followed the instructions to turn it on, and said, “I really like it.”
Lin Yanyan and Ou Yi immediately smiled with joy.
“I chose this gift!”
“I chose the color!”
Suddenly, the two of them started competing for credit.
To quiet them down, Shang Lu had no choice but to praise, “The color is very nice, and it’s very useful too.”
Only then did she manage to pacify both of them.
A staff member reminded, “Promotion… you guys need to promote it.”
Lin Yanyan didn’t really promote it, instead, she looked directly at the camera and said, “Brother Wang, remember to buy one of the same model for me.”
[Hahaha, princess : I don’t care if you guys buy it or not, I’m definitely getting one for myself]
[Although the princess didn’t utter a single word of praise or promotion, when Shang Lu mentioned that it was easy to use, the princess would buy it too, I suddenly wanted to get one myself.]
[Come on, previous commenter, be a bit more awake. When Shang Lu said it’s good, it might just be to avoid disappointing the princess. If the princess wants to buy it, then it’s even simpler—it’s purely because it’s the same model as Shang Lu’s!]
Ou Yi cooperated somewhat, complimenting the beautiful appearance of this massager on camera because he had chosen the color and style.
And then, the others opened their gifts. They all received different but still quite practical gifts. Even though these three are not reliable, it’s rare that they managed to give somewhat reliable gifts this time.
Everyone thought this segment was over.
However, a staff from the program team looked at Shang Lu and Xu Ze.
Shang Lu : “… What is it?”
A sense of unease grew.
The staff was very sincere : “Next, it’s time for Teacher Shang and Teacher Xu to promote the gifts they bought for themselves.”
Everyone : “???”
[Hahaha, you troublemakers, are you seriously out of your minds?]
[Just because it’s a gift doesn’t mean you’re off the hook after giving it! Even if it’s a debt, you still have to promote it! No one can escape!]
[Promoting debt? Who are you guys trying to embarrass?]
Shang Lu grasped onto the key point and said, “But we don’t owe you any money.”
This time, the program team fell silent.
True, their owed payments had already been settled by the other two groups.
But the director quickly caught on, “If both of you promote the items, four hundred yuan will be rewarded and can be used as a gift fund to purchase actual gifts.”
That sounded pretty good.
So, Shang Lu agreed immediately.
Shang Lu faced the camera, drew a circle in the air with their hand, and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is the item I’m going to promote today : debt.”
And netizens responded:
[Shang Lu : This is the pie I’m drawing for everyone.]
[Hahaha, this is a snatch of humor!]
Shang Lu continued, “As we all know, all gifts need to be purchased with money. But what makes this gift special is that when you give this gift to someone in their everyday life, they won’t even realize that it’s a gift. And you can profit from it. Perhaps this is what they call ‘giving roses and having residual fragrance on your hands.'”
