"Alright, esteemed guests, I am about to announce an important task," Director Niu said mysteriously, clearing his throat as he scanned the crowd before finally resting his gaze on Xie Mi. "To enhance the fun and challenge of the game, we have arranged a special task for each guest. Those who complete their tasks will receive generous rewards, while those who do not..."
Director Niu deliberately elongated his last words, a sly smile appearing on his face. "Well, they'll just have to fend for themselves."
The guests exchanged glances, curiosity mixed with unease about this sudden "special task."
The six guests, each with their own personalities and backgrounds, were placed in the same villa.
At that moment, Xie Mi clashed with Ruan Feng.
Ruan Feng, who had been in the industry for twenty-two years without any scandals and was known for his deep love for his wife, found his reputation stripped away by a few words from the rising star Xie Mi.
Ruan Feng's smile froze on his face; he never expected Xie Mi to bring up old matters at such a critical moment.
Years ago, to suppress the newly debuted Xie Mi, he had deliberately used his influence in the industry to spread rumors that ultimately caused Xie Mi to lose many opportunities. He had done this discreetly without anyone discovering it; how could Xie Mi suddenly mention it now?
The surrounding staff felt the tension between the two and dared not breathe too loudly, fearing they might inadvertently ignite a fire. The production team did not call for a stop for the sake of ratings; instead, they focused the cameras on their faces, eager to capture more dramatic moments.
Other guests also sensed that things were going awry and chose to remain silent. Only Xu Shuangrong glanced worriedly at Xie Mi and then at Ruan Feng, hesitating to speak.
At that moment, Shen Zhaoqing, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, breaking the deadlock. Relaxed in his chair with long fingers lightly tapping on the table, he spoke in a neutral tone: "Teacher Ruan Feng, I remember you once mentioned that you and Xie Mi's father were old friends?"
As soon as Shen Zhaoqing said this, all eyes turned to Ruan Feng. Even Xie Mi, who had been looking down, lifted her gaze with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Ruan Feng was taken aback; he clearly hadn't expected Shen Zhaoqing to bring this up. He cleared his throat awkwardly and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses in an attempt to mask the panic in his eyes. "Yes, I was indeed an old friend of Xie Mi's father. Back then..."
Ruan Feng took a deep breath to calm himself. "We worked together on a film years ago and had a good relationship."
"Oh? How come I've never heard my dad mention this?" Xie Mi raised an eyebrow, her tone filled with skepticism.
"You..." Ruan Feng's expression darkened, but he was interrupted by Shen Zhaoqing's light laughter.
"Teacher Ruan, your memory is quite concerning. Xie Mi's father passed away over twenty years ago..." Shen Zhaoqing paused deliberately, observing Ruan Feng's reaction.
Ruan Feng's face changed dramatically as he suddenly stood up, pointing at Shen Zhaoqing with a trembling finger. "You... you're talking nonsense!"
Shen Zhaoqing calmly stood up, towering half a head over Ruan Feng, looking down at him with a hint of pressure in his gaze. "Who knows better whether I'm talking nonsense than you, Teacher Ruan?"
The atmosphere in the room fell into a stalemate, with only the camera faithfully recording everything.
The usually composed Best Actor was flustered and abruptly stood up to stop Xie Mi from continuing her revelations, only to have Xie Mi quickly step on his pant leg.
The sound of fabric tearing echoed sharply in the silent recording studio, shattering Ruan Feng's carefully maintained dignified image.
Xie Mi pressed down with her foot, her exquisite high heels grinding against Ruan Feng's pant leg. With a slight smirk, she said, "Oh dear, Teacher Ruan, don't be so nervous. I haven't finished yet."
The live stream chat exploded with comments as viewers speculated about what Xie Mi would say next. Ruan Feng's reaction only confirmed the authenticity of her revelations. Shen Zhaoqing watched Xie Mi with interest, a playful smile curling at the corners of his mouth as he seemed to anticipate her next move.
Just when everyone thought Xie Mi would continue to expose Ruan Feng and completely bring him down, she suddenly changed the subject and lightly asked, "Teacher Ruan, do you think this dress looks good on me? You used to hold me when I was little."
This unexpected shift left everyone bewildered. Ruan Feng stood frozen in place, caught between options. Meanwhile, Xie Mi appeared completely unaware of what she had just done, looking at Ruan Feng with an innocent expression.
Ruan Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his anger while trying to maintain his graceful demeanor. "Xie Mi, what exactly do you want to say?"
Xie Mi blinked innocently and replied, "Teacher Ruan, please don't be angry. I just remembered something from my childhood and wanted to reminisce with you." She tilted her head and feigned innocence as she asked, "Do you remember? You praised me for being beautiful and said I would definitely become a big star one day."
Ruan Feng gritted his teeth in frustration but forced a smile. "Of course I remember. You were very young back then; I didn't expect you'd grow up to be so graceful."
Xie Mi smiled sweetly and continued, "Yes, it was thanks to you often visiting my home that I had the chance to see what a real star is like. You are my idol." She deliberately emphasized the words "visiting," and a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes.
The recording scene fell into silence, everyone holding their breath as their gazes shifted back and forth between Xie Mi and Ruan Feng. The camera faithfully captured every moment, while the comments in the Live Stream were already flooded with various speculations and doubts.
Shen Zhaoqing watched Xie Mi with great interest, his long fingers gently tapping on the back of the chair as if he were enjoying a good show.
Xie Mi's words exploded like a bomb, stirring up a frenzy among the crowd.
"Wow! That feels so good! Xie Mi is absolutely fierce!"
"Shen Zhaoqing is impressive too! He just exposed Ruan Feng's dirty laundry!"
"I feel for Xie Mi; she has been suppressed by Ruan Feng for so many years, and she finally got to this day!"
"Ruan Feng deserves it! People like him should be banned!"
...
Ruan Feng suddenly lifted his head, glaring at Xie Mi with resentment but dared not speak again.
He knew that today he had completely lost.
