Becoming Popular Through The “All Villains” Variety Show

Do You Still Hate Her? 01 – What is the relationship between the manor and Shang Lu?

Shang Lu was assigned to the closest second floor, and as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, a mysterious man with a masked face appeared before her. He solemnly told her, “Shang Lu, congratulations on having the secret identity. You are actually the undercover agent today, and you must do whatever it takes to make your team lose the game.”

Shang Lu : “!!!”

Her eyes lit up.

Winning is difficult, but losing is easy, right?

And even if they can’t lose in the end, she still has a reason to openly play badly!

Everyone chose the same battle plan, to use their advantage and conduct a carpet search of their respective floors to find the cards.

As luck would have it, Shang Lu’s second floor was the food court of the mall.

The others were searching for the cards. Shang Lu is a celebrity after all, and variety shows are free publicity, so she sat in a dessert shop and received free milk tea and a small cake by taking a selfie with the shop’s owner.

The cameraman couldn’t help but ask, “Teacher Shang, don’t you have any plans?”

Shang Lu was in a good mood, eating cake leisurely, and replied, “Instead of trying to stop the opponent, it’s better to play badly and drag down your teammates.”

Some netizens were amused by Shang Lu’s words.

[Hahaha, what are you talking about, Shang Lu?]

[Well, it makes sense and it’s hard to argue against.]

[She’s the most relaxed undercover agent I’ve seen in all these years of watching variety shows. She really lives up to her reputation.]

But perhaps it’s because lazy people have good luck, Shang Lu stumbles upon two cards with positive values just by casually walking around. One is worth five points and the other is worth seven points, giving her a total of twelve points.

Soon, Shang Lu encounters Ye Lu, who has just finished sweeping the third floor and is holding at least four cards in his hand. There were only a total of thirty cards. Based on average, he should have already found most of the cards on the third floor.

Having figured out the situation, Shang Lu quickly puts her own cards into her pocket.

Ye Lu looks at her speechlessly and asks, “What are you hiding? We’re teammates.”

Shang Lu: “…”

Well, not really.

So, Shang Lu said, “Let me see your score first?”

Ye Lu immediately refused, “You show me yours first.”

Shang Lu : “I spoke first.”

Ye Lu : “…”

Ye Lu : “How about rock-paper-scissors?”

The barrage felt very speechless about their primary school students-like behavior.

[Have you forgotten that you are teammates?]

Suddenly, Shang Lu saw a familiar figure hiding behind another door not far away.

Following Shang Lu’s gaze, Ye Lu looked over and asked in confusion, “Song Zeqian? What are you doing there?”

Song Zeqian came out and reminded them, “I just found a card with a clue. Each floor we are in only has four cards worth points. Once we find them all, we shouldn’t waste any more time. There are two large-value cards hidden very secretly on the first floor.”

Shang Lu and Ye Lu glanced at each other, both of them full of doubt.

Song Zeqian sneered, his face full of disdain, “Believe it or not.”

“We don’t doubt the truth of what you said,” said Ye Lu.

“We just couldn’t believe you’re playing this game so seriously,” said Shang Lu.

“…”

[They are a group that seems to have no trust at all, completely falling apart.]

[If you can pass, just pass. If you can’t, then split up quickly.]

At this moment, Ning Lin also appeared, completing the entire group.

Seeing all her teammates here, Ning Lin breathed a sigh of relief and asked, “How many points do you all have?”

Ning Lin walked over and took out her cards to share with everyone, feeling a bit embarrassed as she said, “I have no points now.”

Because although Ning Lin had found all four cards, the dramatic point was that two positive and two negative cards perfectly offset each other, so she still had zero points.

Seeing Ning Lin voluntarily showing her cards, Ye Lu also took out his own cards.

He found three cards, two positive and one negative, and after adding and subtracting, he had a total of four points left.

Then Song Zeqian took out his cards expressionlessly, then the situation became even more awkward.

He also found four cards, two positive and two negative, but his values were different from Ye Lu’s, and he was even worse off with negative five points.

Several people had already figured out the program group’s routine. Each layer of four cards should have two positive and two negative cards, but the specific values were uncertain.

Since Shang Lu did not find all the cards, she was fortunate enough not to get a negative card and temporarily became the highest scorer in the group.

Ning Lin immediately summed up the current situation and made arrangements: “Shang Lu, don’t look for cards on this floor anymore. Keeping this score is enough. Let’s go find the cards on the first floor and then distribute the total score evenly among the four of us, so that no one will be eliminated.”

Ning Lin then turned to Song Zeqian, who had the lowest score at the moment, and gave him an encouraging smile, saying, “Let’s work together and we can definitely win.”

Ning Lin’s fans in the live broadcast immediately praised her.

[Linlin rarely appears on variety shows, but she performs very well.]

[She’s calm and smart. I love Sister!]

Some people started to express their feelings.

[Indeed, Ning Lin and these guests are really incompatible. In this show of “all villains”, an angel really appeared!!!]

[Ning Lin is so considerate. I feel like Director Song’s face isn’t as bad as usual.]

[Is there anyone who doesn’t like a gentle and kind girl like Ning Lin?]

And it is indeed so.

Song Zeqian also feels that among these traffic celebrities who had no acting skills, especially among the girls, compared to the princess syndrome Lin Yanyan and the not-so-easy-going Shang Lu, Ning Lin is currently the most pleasing to his eyes.

At least her attitude seems very humble, unlike Lin Yanyan and Shang Lu, she should still be an actress who knows how to work hard to correct problems when pointed out.

Because of Ning Lin’s appearance, it can also be considered the first time in this variety show that there has been such a united and friendly picture between teammates.

Then, in the next second, Shang Lu broke this still beautiful picture directly and asked, “How can you be sure that all four of us will not be eliminated, instead of all of us having the lowest score and being eliminated together?”

“It’s indeed possible.” Ning Lin showed a troubled expression, but still smiled and said, “But I believe that as long as we help each other, we will definitely have a chance to win.”

With the comfort and encouragement from Ninglin, Song Zeqian reluctantly nodded to indicate that he accepted the arrangement.

Despite having benefited from it, he seemed reluctant, which made Shang Lu bewildered even more.

To her, it was just a game, and while she could give out points, no one had the right to directly allocate her points, let alone to a recipient who was ungrateful.

Seeing the female lead and her future Licking Dog No. 3, Shang Lu, as a malicious supporting character, refused to accept their arrangement and said, “Director Song seems very reluctant.”

Song Zeqian’s face instantly turned ugly, something that even his sunglasses couldn’t hide.

But before he could say anything, Ning Lin immediately stepped forward to mediate, “Please don’t say that. We are all in the same group, and it’s only natural that we help each other. Shang Lu, I believe you’re not that selfish, are you?”

She began to morally blackmail Shang Lu, and her unwavering words left Shang Lu with no choice but to accept.

“Oh, is it mutual help?” Shang Lu smiled and countered, “I thought it was just a generosity to others.”

[Shang Lu’s words have awakened the dreamers. I’ve always felt that Ning Lin’s words seemed fine, but there was something off about them. Finally, I understand.]

[Ning Lin actually has no points at all, Song Zeqian has negative points, and Ye Lu’s points weren’t that high. Only Shang Lu holds the highest score, so why should she distribute her points to others and take all the credit?]

Ning Lin’s fans became even more dissatisfied.

[Are you kidding me? Ning Lin is doing this for the team’s victory. What’s wrong with this distribution? Doesn’t Shang Lu care about the team? Selfish people like her and Ning Lin are incomparable.]

In the chaos of the moment, Shang Lu’s supporters also joined in.

[I wanted to ask you earlier, are you kidding me? Shang Lu is a mole! Her team is on the other side!!!]

Seeing Ning Lin’s stiff expression, Shang Lu found it amusing and tried to imitate her rhetorical questioning, “I was just joking. I believe you’re not that easy to anger, right?”

There’s no way Ning Lin would admit it with Shang Lu’s questioning. She could only force a smile and say, “It’s okay. Let’s calculate the scores now.”

Ning Lin was speaking kindly and holding back her annoyance with Shang Lu because she really needed those points.

If she was eliminated, she would be locked up in a dark room, and in the official version of the program, there would be a whole segment without any footage.

“What calculation? I never agreed.” Shang Lu waved the card in her hand, turned around, and walked towards another direction, saying, “I’m leaving. You guys keep going.”

Ning Lin’s expression couldn’t hang on anymore, and she took two steps to catch up, a little angry, “Shang Lu, this is inappropriate. We’re on the same team.”

“It’s not appropriate for you to do this either.” Shang Lu retorted directly, “If you really want to win, you should hurry to the first floor to find the high value cards and not hold me back. Or are you just asking for points from me?”

Shang Lu’s words left Ning Lin at a loss for words, and Ning Lin didn’t know how to argue for a moment.

At this moment, the whistle sounded throughout the mall, signaling the end of the game.

The designated time was one hour, but it could end early if all the cards were found.

“Too bad, because we wasted too much time talking nonsense, there may not be a chance now,” said Shang Lu with a helpless expression.

After speaking, Shang Lu was the first to walk downstairs.

There were only three people left here.

Since Ning Lin couldn’t persuade Shang Lu, she turned to Ye Lu and pleaded, “Please give some points to Song Zeqian, at least let him not have negative points like me, otherwise he will be eliminated directly.”

Ye Lu didn’t have a chance to respond before Song Zeqian interjected, “No need.”

SOng Zeqian’s mood was also very low at the moment.

It was just a game, and he wasn’t a beggar who needed to beg for points from others.

Ning Lin was momentarily taken aback.

But at this point, no one was paying attention to her, because Song Zeqian also went downstairs. Ye Lu took a look at Song Zeqian, then shrugged his shoulders to indicate that it wasn’t that he didn’t want to give points, and followed Song Zeqian.
