The Security Guard Who Won the Heart of the Unattainable Actress - Chapter 21.2
Chapter 21.2
“@Director Why haven’t we seen our little security guard? I’m here to see the security guard!”
“Me too, hahahaha!!! I came here because of the Douyin transformation challenge. Can we get a cool shot of our security guard sister? I really want to compare if she’s the same person in the video.”
“Director, director! Please see this!”
Wang Rou said, “Everyone is very enthusiastic, but our security team doesn’t have a mission to be on camera today. They are already very tired from maintaining security at the scene. Please don’t make things difficult for our production team.”
“Watching Security Guard 06? How do you all know about my security guard? So now you know why I was crying and hugging another security guard, right?” Jiang Qiaoye’s eyes scanned Li Guang as he made a joke.
Comments: “We know! But your fainting was real, brother!”
Wang Rou said, “Everyone is officially here. Let’s start the filming. The show’s rules have changed to a new ‘You Escape, I Chase’ format. The guests are divided into an escape team and a hunt team. I won’t go into more detail about this. The winner of the last game was Ran Mingyue. She chose to be on the hunt team.”
“I knew it! Our Ran Mingyue is so strong, she would definitely choose to be on the hunt team.”
“The important thing is not the hunt or escape team. The important thing is the show’s effect. As long as there’s a variety show effect, everything is fine~”
“You’re right. So those who said that Jiang Qiaoye shouldn’t have been invited should come out. Should we have invited you instead? At least Brother Ye is a professional variety show person. He knows how to create an effect. He has a basic guarantee for the show’s effect. The famous fainting scene from the first episode, hahahaha.”
“The famous scene that we all love, hahahaha. But Brother Ye later said in his live stream that he really fainted and wasn’t faking it.”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know that your Brother Ye is the best, okay?”
“Let’s watch the show, sisters. We finally got to see the live broadcast. Don’t ruin the atmosphere.”
“Wuwuwuwuwu, I’m here to see the security guard sister. Ever since Ji Yuan’s video was posted, there has been no sign of that sister. So I came here to satisfy my craving.”
“The way they are standing side by side, I feel like they are about to do a mission.”
“Production team, please be a little lenient on the guests. Hhhhh. I think their intelligence might not be able to handle it.”
“Guests: Thanks for the insult.”
Wang Rou first read out some comments from the viewers and then, in line with the audience’s wishes, entered the game segment.
Li Guang and the staff member in her earpiece confirmed the status of the guests on the scene.
“All guest statuses confirmed.”
“Xiang Que, Wen Yingzhi, Hua Yuzhi, Jiang Qiaoye, Song Suoqi, perfect.”
Li Guang reported them one by one in a low voice until she got to the last person. Her eyes fell on that person.
Her voice unconsciously carried a hint of a smile, “Ran Mingyue, absolutely perfect.”
“Last night, I already told you all to remember to pack your luggage. This is because it is related to our first mission,” Wang Rou said. “The first mission is—bag check.”
Ran Mingyue’s surprise appeared for a split second, and no one, not even the camera, noticed it.
Wang Rou continued, “We’ll do a surprise bag check. Let’s see what everyone has packed. It also helps us understand what everyone’s private life is like. If you have your luggage with you, please wait where you are. If it’s in the van, please bring it over. We’ll gather in five minutes. After the bag check is over and everyone has chosen their rooms, today’s live broadcast can end.”
In other words, once these two missions were completed, they could get off work today.
During these five minutes, the camera would not be on the guests.
Song Suoqi had been following Ran Mingyue the whole time. Five minutes was too short. She wanted to stay with Ran Mingyue, but she saw that Ran Mingyue had already left.
Instead of going to the makeup artist for a touch-up or resting on the side, Ran Mingyue went to… Huh, why did she go to the staff?
Li Guang’s earpiece also received a notification that the five-minute countdown had begun. Ran Mingyue came to find her.
“Li Guang,” Ran Mingyue said, holding her suitcase. Her voice was low and showed a hint of helplessness. “Can you help me?”
“What’s wrong?” Li Guang immediately thought of her owner-first principle. “Sister Mingyue, just say the word.”
“My suitcase absolutely cannot be opened on camera, under any circumstances,” Ran Mingyue said. “We only have five minutes. Is there anything you can do?”
Ran Mingyue was furious.
When she was packing her bag, she didn’t realize that Wang Rou’s reminder that day had a deeper meaning. So, Ran Mingyue accidentally put that rabbit tail anal plug in her luggage.
It was a souvenir! She really just took it as a souvenir!
She had no idea that they would check their bags on the show. This was Ran Mingyue’s first time on a variety show, and she didn’t know about this part of the process.
Ran Mingyue had no other choice. Time was too tight. There was no way she could leave the filming location now, so she could only think of Li Guang. As a staff member, Li Guang could move around the entire set, which was much more convenient than her.
Wang Rou walked over: “Xiao Ran, where’s your luggage? Why haven’t you gone to the car to get it? Two minutes have already passed.”
Ran Mingyue: “I…”
“I’ll go get it! Sister Mingyue said her luggage is too heavy. How can she carry it? Her manager isn’t here either,” Li Guang said, thinking quickly on her feet, and answered for Ran Mingyue.
“That’s so thoughtful of you. You not only manage our set but also act as a part-time manager,” Wang Rou said with a smile. “I’ll tell the production team to give you a raise.”
“Okay!” Li Guang felt energized when she thought of getting a raise. After Wang Rou left, she said to Ran Mingyue, “It’s okay. I’ll go get my luggage and bring it to you first. I have nothing but food in my suitcase. Will that work for now?”
“Okay, thank you,” Ran Mingyue said. As soon as she finished thanking her, Li Guang shook her head and scurried away. She didn’t ask Ran Mingyue why she couldn’t let the production team see her luggage. To Li Guang, that wasn’t important.
Li Guang just wanted to help Ran Mingyue. That was enough.
She ran all the way through the drizzle. She ran through Zone A, into the dormitory, and grabbed her luggage.
Faster, faster, faster! Sister Mingyue is still waiting!
Li Guang ran as fast as she could. The wheels on her suitcase rolled quickly too.
“Resuming live broadcast countdown.”
“Five, four, three, two, one.”
When the five-minute countdown was happening, Ran Mingyue could already see Li Guang running wildly toward her. A frizzy head appeared in the rain. Li Guang’s hair, unsurprisingly, was stubbornly blooming in the rain. Her small head was round and fluffy, looking very cute.
Ran Mingyue wanted to tell Li Guang to slow down. She was carrying a suitcase. Be careful!
Wang Rou said, “Time’s up.”
The others were already standing in their original positions with their luggage. Ran Mingyue had to come back too. Wang Rou signaled with her eyes—Where’s your luggage?
Ran Mingyue said in a low voice, “It’s coming.”
Fortunately, according to the order, Ran Mingyue’s luggage would be opened last. Thank goodness.
“They’re back!”
“Huh, why is Sister Mingyue still standing there alone, without her luggage?”
“Looking at Teacher Ran’s eyes, her assistant must still be getting it. Wow, is it that heavy that it took more than five minutes to get it?”
“Hahahaha, is Teacher Ran hiding something shameful in her bag and is trying to clean it up?”
“No way, no way. Is it because it’s too heavy? What did she pack?”
“Teacher Ran isn’t the kind of person with a cute, hidden side who would hoard a whole suitcase of instant noodles, is she?”
“Brother Xiang Que!”
The first one was Xiang Que. When his suitcase was opened, it was all neatly divided into different compartments. Xiang Que clearly had a bit of an organizing obsession.
Comments: “He’s a self-management expert! You can tell he’s a J!”
Li Guang was still catching her breath. She had run too fast. Even with her physique, she was out of breath. Because the live broadcast had already started, she had to find a suitable camera angle before she could bring it in.
She could only look up first and mouthed to Ran Mingyue: Don’t worry, I’m here.
Next was Wen Yingzhi. Wen Yingzhi’s luggage contained her costumes, which fit her identity as a Kunqu opera singer. In addition, in the interlayer of her suitcase, they found a bunch of small perfume samples, from big and small brands, both domestic and international.
Comments: “My eyes have been opened by our sister!”
Wang Rou asked, “The filming here is only for three days. Why bring so many perfumes?”
Wen Yingzhi said lazily, “I have to use a different perfume for every date, right?”
Hua Yuzhi kept smiling.
Comments: “Sister, I thought the only thing you’d open our eyes to was perfume. I was careless.”
Jiang Qiaoye had two suitcases. One he used for clothes, and the other one contained his computer tower because he wanted to play games. But as everyone knew, Jiang Qiaoye was the one who was always being roasted by his teammates during his live game streams.
He was either dying or on his way to dying.
Comments: “I watched Brother Ye’s live game stream tonight. I’ll be laughing until tomorrow night.”
Hua Yuzhi and Song Suoqi’s luggage had nothing special. Hua Yuzhi was still filming in another production team, so she carried her script with her. Song Suoqi was a singer. She brought two pairs of headphones and a Bluetooth speaker.
It was finally Ran Mingyue’s turn.
When Song Suoqi was being introduced, a hand appeared next to Ran Mingyue.
Li Guang came over, pushing her suitcase. Her movements were quick. She put the suitcase next to Ran Mingyue’s hand. But the camera had just moved to Ran Mingyue, so it was normal for it to capture Li Guang’s hand.
“Is that 06!!!”
“Ahhh, it must be. That hand looks just like that sister.”
“She brought Teacher Ran’s suitcase! What a kind person, wuwuwu.”
“I strongly demand to see the security guard sister’s face now.”
“Ahhhhhhhhh, I’m going crazy. That hand, that outfit, those combat boots! My favorite style has been knocked to the ground.”
“I want to ship this unorthodox pairing.”
But Li Guang couldn’t see any of this. She just had to hand the item to Ran Mingyue.
Ran Mingyue casually placed her hand on the handle.
“Now, let’s open Ran Mingyue’s suitcase. Before we open it, let’s interview Xiao Ran. What are your usual life habits? This suitcase looks very heavy.”
Ran Mingyue and Li Guang exchanged a look. Li Guang shook her head, indicating that her suitcase had nothing else in it.
Just say whatever comes to mind. It’s fine.
Ran Mingyue: “I usually live a very regular life. Now that I’m on a break, I just exercise and go to bed on time.”
Wang Rou said, “Oh, so you’re disciplined! As expected of Xiao Ran.”
Comments: “My goddess is, of course, very disciplined. Just look at her body. It hasn’t changed at all over the years. Hehehehe, when she opens it, it must be full of workout stuff!”
“Ugh, why are all these guests so ordinary?”
Who would have thought that as soon as Ran Mingyue’s hand opened the buckles, the suitcase “puffed” open? It seemed to have been closed under heavy pressure.
Ran Mingyue was startled. Her eyes met Li Guang’s for a moment, and then she realized that this was a live broadcast.
Stay composed!
After the suitcase opened, a pile of colorful packages burst open in front of the camera.
Ran Mingyue’s face changed as she realized what was happening. But this was a live broadcast. It was too late to cover it.
It was all instant food, with various packaging. A layer of crushed noodles was on top. It was a good thing it was crushed noodles, so it was okay that it was pressed on top.
“Salted egg yolk noodles, zhajiangmian, double pepper instant noodles?” Wang Rou read out loud. The more she read, the more she felt something was wrong. But she had to continue, “…Luosifen, buldak noodles, ready-to-eat steak, fatty rice noodles???”
This is your discipline and regular lifestyle?
Ran Mingyue’s face remained unchanged: “What’s wrong?”
Li Guang, behind the camera, was on pins and needles. She felt that her private stash of snacks would be confiscated by the production team in the next second.
Everything was there. Besides instant food, there was also a set of pajamas, 600 yuan in cash, a yellow plush bear bag, and a baton. There was absolutely no workout equipment that everyone thought would be there. Only the baton was somewhat related.
Comments: 【Hahahahahaha, disciplined. Is this what you people in the entertainment industry call disciplined?”
“What is it, did Brother Ye give his mission to create a spectacle to Teacher Ran today?”
“It’s killing me. I want to eat luosifen now too.”
“Everything in her luggage is food, and there’s only one set of pajamas. Ran Mingyue, what a real person.”
“I’m just laughing out loud.”
“Why is there a stick in her luggage? Is she afraid of male stalkers again? I feel bad for her, wuwuwu.”
“What’s that thing in the interlayer of her suitcase?”
“What is this? She even has cash. Is she ready to run away from home at any time? /crying laugh”
Just as this comment appeared, Wang Rou had taken out everything and started to look through the interlayer.
When she took out that object, Li Guang’s breathing stopped.
Oh no! There’s a loose end!
Li Guang remembered.
That night she returned from the quirky restaurant, her brain must have been misaligned.
She put the wallet with Ran Mingyue’s photo, which she had gotten from Ji Yuan, inside the suitcase.
Oh my god!
She couldn’t bear to look. She only hoped that the production team would be merciful and not open the wallet.
But the photo wallet was picked up by Wang Rou. “Xiao Ran, what is this?”
“This,” Ran Mingyue’s tone paused for a moment, “is a very important photo.”
“What important photo? You didn’t even tell me about it?” Wen Yingzhi asked curiously from behind. “Don’t tell me you have someone you like and you’ve been hiding it from me?”
The more Wen Yingzhi said, the more bitter Ran Mingyue’s heart became.
Yes, it must be someone Li Guang likes. Or someone she likes but isn’t with. She’s my love rival.
“Oh!”
“I must be dreaming. Teacher Ran has someone she likes?”
“She’s so down-to-earth now. We’ve been wondering when Ran Mingyue would be in a relationship. She has zero rumors.”
“Open it now!!!”
“According to the bag check rules, I will open this for the camera.”
The moment the photo wallet was opened, Li Guang’s nervous breathing stopped. She was already subconsciously thinking of a countermeasure.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over.
Forget it, forget it. It’s just one photo. So what? As long as Sister Mingyue can pass this bag check.
The camera was also focused on Ran Mingyue.
The moment the wallet was opened.
Ran Mingyue’s face was filled with undisguised astonishment. She couldn’t even maintain her composure in front of the camera.
In her eyes was surprise, confusion, and a deep sense of disbelief. The moment the photo was revealed, her foot uncontrollably stepped toward the side of the set. She then stopped but raised her eyes to look directly at Li Guang’s eyes.
That look was no longer cold.
In the photo, the person who was so precious to Li Guang—
It was her.
This was a photo of her.
