Chapter 95: Chapter 95: New Task Grouping
Yan Ming thought he had heard wrong, “What? Who are you eliminating?”
Ji Tian looked towards Ji Weinan, whose face was stiff, and said word by word, “My third brother, Ji Weinan.”
[Has Ji Tian gone mad? Eliminating someone from her own group? What kind of move is that?]
[Could it be that her heart was hurt last night, which is why she’s eliminating her own brother?]
[Are you kidding? Shen Zhiyi was the one who ran out because she was upset, and Ji Weinan obviously should have gone after her to bring her back, after all, she’s a young girl. But what was Ji Tian doing following them out? Jealous that Shen Zhiyi is taking her brother away? Looking for some attention? Thankfully Zhiyi is fine, otherwise Ji Tian better brace herself for a lawsuit.]
[Let’s not engage in moral kidnapping, okay? Is he Ji Tian’s brother or Shen Zhiyi’s brother? We have no clue what really happened last night, so you all are just spreading rumors.]
Everyone thought that Ji Tian would reserve that card for Shen Zhiyi, but she surprisingly decided to eliminate her own brother instead.
Ji Weinan wanted to say something, but Ji Tian didn’t even want to exchange a single word with him.
He remembered what she said yesterday, that if he abandoned her, she would never pay attention to him for the rest of her life.
Suddenly, Ji Weinan felt somewhat panicked; he hadn’t done it on purpose. Compared to Ji Tian, the situation with Shen Zhiyi was more dangerous, someone could have died, he had never intended to abandon his sister.
He wanted to say something, but seeing her cold profile made him feel so estranged. He took a deep breath, comforting himself that this was only temporary. After the show ended for Ji Tian, he would make it up to her.
Struck with a sense of loss, he turned and walked away, not even caring about Shen Zhiyi’s gaze.
Shen Zhiyi frowned slightly; according to the script, Ji Weinan was supposed to be eliminated. But she felt something was off, and the fact that Ji Tian was still in the show didn’t sit right with her.

She desperately called out to 008 in her mind again, but there was no response. She then steadied her own mindset; she had proven yesterday that given the choice between her and Ji Tian, Ji Weinan would still choose her without hesitation.
Even at the end of the book, his hopelessly lovestruck brain still hadn’t come to its senses, tragically causing his own sister to end up in jail. Only when Ji Tian died in prison did he have his great awakening, filled with regret.
Now that Bai Tingyu had developed feelings for her, not to mention Ji Weinan’s unrequited love for her, she looked up at Yan Ming and asked, “Director, what task do we have tonight?”
“Since three players have been eliminated, everyone please form your own teams now, six people in a team. After that, I will announce the remaining tasks.”
Ji Tian received the fifty yuan allotted to them. Now, aside from what she had picked up, she only had eighty available for use; just her and Wen Jiangxue remained on their team, which she felt was enough.
The current funds of each team.
Dai Qin’s Team: 211.
Yu Chuan’s Team: 61.
Fu Wanxue’s Team: 56.
He Chenxi’s Team: 43.
Now, aside from Dai Qin’s Team, Ji Tian’s team had the most money.
Quan Jingyou headed straight for Ji Tian with a clear goal, “Sister Tian, let’s team up. It’s just Sister Chenxi and me.”
He Chenxi came over, her eyebrows coolly raised, “Let’s be together. I’m not too keen on the opposing team.”
Since last night, her view of Shen Zhiyi had drastically worsened, completely losing all her favor. But as a public figure, she couldn’t express her dislike as unabashedly as Ji Tian; she could only use her actions to subtly make her point. After all, teams were forming voluntarily, so she followed Quan Jingyou.
With new teammates arriving, Ji Tian naturally welcomed them. She walked up with a smile and hugged He Chenxi, “Welcome, Sister Chenxi.”

“Let’s join your group then.”
Yu Chuang’s voice rose helplessly.
He had wanted to join Shen Zhiyi’s team, but Qin Jiangsheng, that kid, had no idea what got into him, latched onto his clothes, and nodded towards Ji Tian, clearly indicating his choice—Ji Tian.
The only sense of participation he had was probably in making the choice to pick Ji Tian…
He Chenxi couldn’t hold back her laughter, “I thought you’d join Dai Qin’s team.”
Yu Chuang shrugged helplessly, looked at Qin Jiangsheng, and smiled at He Chenxi, “I feel safe with you.”
[Wow, I ship it, I ship it! River-fish OTP, I ship it! Sobs, sob, why does Xue Anyu that guy have to exist, when will XiXi finally break up! Just because of Xue Anyu, I’ve even un-stanned.]
[I honestly don’t understand He Chenxi’s taste either. There are so many handsome, both cool and cute, young guys in the circle, why on earth is she dead set on that old greasy stick, Xue Anyu? Isn’t Xue Anyu almost 30 years old? A full seven years older than her.]
[I hope she washes her eyes out. Xue Anyu is really ugly, I can’t appreciate him at all, always feel like even through the screen it stinks, help, I wouldn’t watch the TV shows he acts in even if I die!]
Every time the entire internet ships Yu Chuang with He Chenxi, Xue Anyu gets cyberblasted.
If you say Xue Anyu has any eye-catching traits, it’s that his online persona is that of a rich second generation. Though rich, he has always been lukewarm in the entertainment industry until He Chenxi brought him into the limelight by going viral.
As for whether he’s truly wealthy, who knows.
The team division consisted of two groups, called Team A and Team B.
Team A consisted of Ji Tian, Wen Jiangxue, He Chenxi, Quan Jingyou, Yu Chuang, and Qin Jiangsheng.
Team B was made up of Dai Qin, Shen Zhiyi, Bai Tingyu, Fu Wanxue, Gong Yu, and Bei Ning.
After the teams were divided, Yan Ming continued, “Now, the first task is for each team to raise a minimum of two hundred yuan. If not completed within the set time, it’s considered a forfeit, and three members from the entire team will be eliminated. The time allocated for this task is three hours. This sum of money will decide if your next task can start normally. Please make an effort, as I will be waiting for you in Lin Chuan City within these three hours.”
Having finished speaking, Yan Ming swiftly got into a car that he seemed to have procured from nowhere and left in a cloud of dust.
Quan Jingyou was completely dumbfounded, “He left? Just like that? Left us with a rotten task and walked away.”
“How are we going to get to Lin Chuan City later?”
Ji Tian glanced at Quan Jingyou, whose brains weren’t quite as sharp, and said quietly, “We’ll obviously take a car there, did you think we were going to walk?”
Quan Jingyou: “…”
It was also a one-hour drive from here to Lin Chuan City.
So, in reality, they only had two hours for the actual task. Within those two hours, they needed to raise at least two hundred yuan, which would be the condition to start the next task.
And the next task would be in the city.
Yan Ming had already arrived ahead of them.
After understanding the task, Shen Zhiyi and several others gathered to discuss and then split into pairs to take action, trying to figure out how to make money.
He Chenxi frowned, “Sweet Sister, do we have to split up too? But in these rural areas, how do we make money? Even if we start working in the fields immediately to help villagers dig up vegetables, it won’t add up to two hundred…”
Labor in this little village was very cheap.
