Chapter 66: You Lose If You Get Serious

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Meng Chuyuan was still studying how to break apart the apple in her hand when she realized that Lu Jinsen was talking to her.

Lu Jinsen looked at Meng Chuyuan expectantly, hoping that she would give him an answer.

It was not that he could not make up his mind. He really wanted to give this opportunity to Meng Chuyuan.

After all, Meng Chuyuan had been filming the variety show with him for so long. He had not thanked her properly and had not done anything for her.

Coincidentally, there was such an opportunity now, so Lu Jinsen naturally prioritized her.

Meng Chuyuan said without hesitation, “You have to choose well.”

Breaking apples was such a ridiculous game. Everyone had yet to find the technique, and Lu Jinsen had finally gotten an opportunity to choose the ingredients. Naturally, he had to make good use of it.

Lu Jinsen seemed to understand what she meant and turned to look for the director to choose the ingredients.

He looked through the ingredients in the freezer. They had eaten a lot of seafood in the past two days, so she should not be interested in these anymore. In the end, Lu Jinsen chose the steak without hesitation.

After choosing the steak, Lu Jinsen picked up another complete apple and tried to recall the feeling he had just now.

When Meng Chuyuan saw that he was about to break apart another apple, she suddenly stopped and observed Lu Jinsen’s method of splitting the apple seriously.

Lu Jinsen’s hand slipped once he started to break the apple. One of his hands fell off the other side of the apple. This situation was the same as what they had all experienced when trying to break apart the apple just now.

“Don’t look at me like that.” Sensing Meng Chuyuan’s gaze, Lu Jinsen seemed a little flustered.

Meng Chuyuan said, “I just want to see how you broke it open. Let me learn.” Lu Jinsen glanced at her and said in all seriousness, “With my hands.”

[Lu Jinsen, your chance to make a comeback has arrived. Avenge your previous humiliation.]

[He broke it with his hands, hahaha. If he didn’t use his hands, could he have used his feet? Lu Jinsen is too humorous.]

[Pfft, hahaha, Young Master’s panicked gaze. Is Sister Meng that scary?]

[Lu Jinsen, you should be content with being able to make Sister Meng say the word ‘study’. Hurry up and get yourself together.]

[Sister Meng might really want to learn. Hahaha, she was watching very seriously just now.]

Lu Jinsen had yet to find the trick. He did not even know how he had split the apple just now.

Coincidentally, Meng Chuyuan said something like that again. Lu Jinsen suddenly felt pressured.

Meng Chuyuan did not give up. “Let me see.”

Under the pressure of the camera and Meng Chuyuan’s gaze, Lu Jinsen held his breath and put his hand back.

The camera man began to take close-up shots of Lu Jinsen’s hand. His fingers were clasped at the bottom of the apple. His palm was close to the wrist and pressed against the top of the apple. Then, he exerted a little force and actually pried the apple apart again.

Meng Chuyuan watched the entire process and could not wait to try it out.

She followed Lu Jinsen’s method just now, but her hands were in the air and she could not exert any strength. In the end, she could only hug the apple closer to her abdomen and press her hands on both sides of the apple. Then, she successfully broke the apple apart too .

Ting Jiu was still twisting the smooth apple vigorously at the side, he was already a little impatient and wished he could give the apple a bite.

After seeing Meng Chuyuan break apart the apple, Ting Jiu looked at her enviously.

“Sister Chuyuan, you split it too?” Meng Chuyuan raised the apple she had just split. “It split.”

“How did it split?” Ting Jiu asked.

“Find a fulcrum.’

“Understood.” After replying confidently, Ting Jiu also began his own performance.

[Simple and concise. Is this a conversation between top students?]

[The principle of leverage is being fully utilized by these geniuses. Hahaha.] [Wuhu! The pressure is on the production team now.]

The director watched as they broke open the apples one after another and inexplicably began to panic. Initially, he felt that this game should be quite difficult for the guests, but now, it seemed that they had grasped the technique.

“How many have you opened?” The director couldn’t sit still in the canopy. He walked to the recording site, his expression clearly not as relaxed as before.

Ting Jiu happened to break another apple apart at this moment. He looked up and replied to the director, “Three so far.”

After Meng Chuyuan mastered the skill of breaking apples with her bare hands, she began to attack the director. “Director, there’s no need to continue this game, right? Isn’t it a waste to break so many apples?”

The apples that Lu Jinsen had broken earlier had already started to oxidize. Moreover, they had broken three more apples now. It would be meaningless if they continued. It would only be a waste.

[I was wondering why Sister Meng didn’t refute the director earlier. It turns out that she wanted to learn how to break apples. She got a new skill.]

[Sister Meng is really smart. Some things can be mastered just by looking at them. It’s true that the heavens have rewarded her with food.]

[After Sister Meng has learnt the relevant skill, the game doesn’t matter to her anymore. We can watch the director be speechless again.]

[Is there really no one to speak up for the director? He has no dignity as a director. Hahahaha.]

After Meng Chuyuan said that, the director suddenly realized this problem.

It was his lack of consideration.

The director thought about it and felt that he had to change the game. Otherwise, it would be a waste if they couldn’t finish eating so many apples in the end.

“Let’s change the game. Let’s stop splitting the apples.”

When they heard that the director wanted to change the game, the other guests silently heaved a sigh of relief and put the apples back.

Meng Chuyuan took the other half of the apple in her hand and ate it, quietly waiting for the director to announce the next procedure.

The director thought for a while and decided to carry out the second plan. “Next, we’ll play a simple game. In three seconds, you must be able to tell which cup has pure water in it and which cup has salt water in it. Everyone will have three chances to take up this challenge.”

Qi Zhen asked curiously, “Can we taste it with our mouth?” “Of course not. You can only observe with your eyes.”

[Director, are you sure this game is simple? Hahaha]

[Is he serious, three seconds? You might not even be able to tell in a minute, right?]

[This director is full of evil tricks. He’s really working hard to save up on the ingredients.]

[But this game is already much better than breaking apples. At least it’s not so wasteful.]

[I saw that Sister Meng has already started eating hahahaha. She doesn’t manage any of her expressions and is even a little cute.]

The production team began to serve two glasses of water, then they let the guests come up to distinguish them at once.

The director: “The water is ready for everyone. Who wants to go first?”

Qi Yan stared at the two identical cups and complained, “How can you tell with your eyes in three seconds?”

Hearing Qi Yan’s words, Meng Chuyuan glanced at her and said with a smile, “It’s just a game. You lose if you get serious.”

Qi Yan:

Meng Chuyuan finished the last bite of the apple and saw that no one else had any reaction. In order not to waste time, she could only go up first.

She took two steps forward and pointed to the glass on her left. “This should be pure water,” she said to the director.

The director looked up at Meng Chuyuan and asked, “Are you sure?”
