The Villainous Celebrity Wife of the CEO - Chapter 163.2
She was beside herself with happiness! The ratings of Wilderness Winner was so high no one could have not known it. Going online and searching alone would send you to discussion posts everywhere on various forums. Did going to record such a famous variety show mean that the day she’d make a big hit was finally coming???
—— As for the small additional task proposed by her golden master, what did it matter?
……
Zhou Jing was indeed not easy to deal with.
When Su Jishi was filming Mysterious Notes, she had already learned how much Zhou Jing could do. It was obvious that she was an 18-tier actress who relied on her golden master to get to the top, but she posed as a first-tier traffic star on the set. It was when Su Jishi’s aura was in full display that she was severely beaten, before she was suppressed.
Su Jishi thought that Zhou Jing should have made progress after not seeing her for such a long time. Unexpectedly, she had more tricks up her sleeves than usual.
She failed to pull strings with Su Jishi and ran to the other artists to get close to them. She was easy-going and was especially adept at adding drama to herself. Almost in the blink of an eye, she had a nickname for everyone and was (unilaterally) hitting it off with everyone.
Although she hadn’t shown any misconduct so far, Su Jishi concluded – Zhou Jing is definitely here for me.
Otherwise, why did such a popular variety show inexplicably invite an 18-tier flying guest? Moreover, this 18-tier was related to the Mu family.
Su Jishi was too lazy to test her either. Anyway, even if she did, she wouldn’t reveal her fox tail so soon.
In the afternoon of the same day, the artists stepped onto the ice surface of Ulungur Lake, led by local staff.
Every winter, the frozen ice of Ulungur Lake could reach a meter, which could withstand tens of thousands of people dancing on the ice. In addition to fishing, there were also opened special amusement stalls and food stalls for the winter fishing festival. In the afternoon, the six artists enjoyed the beautiful scenery while eating delicious food.
“Huh ~ What is that?” Zhou Jing’s pretentious voice sounded.
Looking toward where she was pointing, everyone saw a large field circled in the middle of the snow by the lake. A few tents were erected outside the fence, and several ethnic minority compatriots in full costumes were warming up and chatting in the tents.
Not far from the tents was an open horse pen. Tall, strong, long-haired horses were standing lazily on the snow, chewing grass in their mouths and eating deliciously.
Born in the extreme cold, the bones of these horses were more robust compared to inland horses. Their mane was also thicker. According to the staff, they have the pedigree of a Soviet Heavy Draft[1], so they were born so tall and strong.
Su Jishi had always loved horses, which reminded her of Linda Hu in Beijing. Hence, she looked at the horses with warmth.
Yan Changhui asked curiously, “Is there a horse race later?”
The staff first shook their heads and then nodded: “It’s not a horse race —— there will be a ‘girl chasing’ performance later.”
“Girl chasing?”
This peculiar term aroused everyone’s curiosity.
The staff happily explained. It turned out that girl chasing was a traditional horse racing game of the Kazakhs. In simple terms, it was the “come on, come on, come after me” on horseback.
It was just different from the common male chasing females. The core of girl chasing was that the man stands at the starting line on his horse while the girl sets off on her horse a certain distance behind, and they race afterwards.
This game showed the rebellion of Kazakh girls against arranged marriages and their desire for free love. Nowadays, in many large festivals and even wedding banquets, there would be performances of girl chasing horse races.
Right after the staff explained, Zhou Jing, who was worried about having nowhere to express herself, immediately yelled.
“Oh, this game is so interesting! How about we play too?” She looked at the other artists while winking at the camera, looking cute and naive, “Come on, let’s ride a horse together!”
In fact, the Director and Producer of this kind of reality show were similar to invisible people. They couldn’t interfere too much with guests’ choices, lest the fun of the show would be lost.
The artists discussed, and everyone felt that Zhou Jing’s proposal was quite interesting. As long as the artists had filmed costume dramas, they basically could ride horses.
The six guests, exactly three men and three women, would form three pairs of horse racing, which would be absolutely interesting to watch.
Just…
“Sorry.” The oldest, Yan Changhui, raised his hand to apologize, “I hurt my back during a shooting. I can not ride a horse, so I won’t participate in this game. You young people play.”
With his withdrawal, one of the three female guests was bound to be single and needed to team up with the staff.
The two remaining male artists, a new father, Teacher Wei Jing, and a 20-year-old popular young and handsome idol, Qin Qiu; if they were to think with their toes, it was obvious who they would team up with and generate more topicality!
Zhou Jing’s eyes twinkled and she thought, I can’t let go of this great opportunity to hype a CP!
She immediately went to Qin Qiu’s side, as if she could not see the embarrassment on Qin Qiu’s face, and sweetly asked, “Qiu Qiu, can I be on your team?”
Qin Qiu: “…”
For rising idols like Qin Qiu, scandals were what they feared most! Zhou Jing bore down on him menacingly. If he rides with her today, they will be secretly dating for three years on Weibo tomorrow. It was estimated that rumors about a hidden marriage and concealed parenting between them would soar the day after.
He was so scared that he immediately backed up and panicked. However, he couldn’t string an excuse and could only say, “I’m also suffering from back pain. I won’t ride horses anymore!”
This was an excuse, but he didn’t know if Zhou Jing really didn’t understand or was pretending not to understand, so she asked him, “Qiu Qiu, do you also have lower back pain? How coincidental? Did you also hurt your waist on the crew?”
“…” The excuse was already out, so Qin Qiu wasn’t as flustered as before. He composed himself and deliberately showed a shy look, playful and mysterious: “Oh, men experience some days of discomfort every month ~ you know, the Great Uncle[2]!”
Even the staff laughed in amusement. The other artists were also amused, and Zhou Jing alone was so angry that her face turned white. She could hardly even maintain her fake smile.
She had a fire of anger burning in her heart. She certainly knew that the other guests were looking down on her. She had worked so hard to stick her hot face on the cold ass for so long, only to receive ridicule from everyone! Once she completed her mission and left this hellhole, she must complain to her golden master!
She gritted her teeth and swallowed the sourness in her heart, and once again turned her attention to the last male artist in the arena —— Although it was unwise to team up with a dad like Wei Jing to generate hype, it was better than being assigned to a passerby or a staff member!
Unexpectedly, before she could speak, a clear and determined female voice interrupted her performance.
“—— Sister Yuyu and Teacher Wei Jing are in a group, so it is settled.” Su Jishi pursed her red lips. The words she uttered simply did not allow anyone to refute, “As for Zhou Jing…I think you should partner with me.”
Su Jishi thought, Since this gal came for me, then I naturally should solve this problem by myself.
She said it smoothly, but this sentence jolted everyone present.
The local staff in charge of being their tour guide was even more anxious, scratching his ears and waving his hands: “No, no, never like this before!”
Su Jishi raised an eyebrow: “Oh?”
Staff: “The game girl chasing has always been a game between girls and boys. I’ve never seen two girls compete!”
“You’ve never seen it? That’s just right.” Su Jishi’s favorite thing to do was to break the rules. She reached out and patted the tall, strong horse beside her, which dropped its long neck and looked tamely at the glorious Valkyrie[3]. She smiled freely, stepped on the stirrups, turned around and leaped onto the horse!
She sat firmly on the horse with her back straight. Between her glances, her eyes were like swords, enough to cut the air: “Since everyone has never seen it, let them all see it today.”
After saying that, she lowered her head and looked down at Zhou Jing who was subdued by her words.
“Don’t waste time.” Su Jishi flicked her horse whip, letting it whistle through the air. The sound of the whip exploded: “Second Aunt, gallop on your horse first. I’ll give you a thirty horse-length head start. You —— do you dare not compare?”
The author has something to say:
A horse’s body is about more than two meters and less than three meters. Su Jishi directly gave way to nearly 100 meters.
Our Sister Su is so powerful!
