The Security Guard Who Won the Heart of the Unattainable Actress - Chapter 37.1
Chapter 37.1
After Li Guang finished speaking, the others fell silent.
The viewers in the comments section were also silent.
They probably hadn’t expected this young girl to address the issues so directly and blatantly, and in a way that left everyone speechless.
Li Guang’s clear eyes made people feel guilty, and her calm tone contained immense power.
“I reflect on my actions,” Hua Yuzhi said. “I saw Teacher Ran was scared yesterday, but I wanted to win, so I kept shouting from below…”
“Me too, sob sob sob, my fault.” Song Suoqi was a young girl and not naturally sensitive to these things. “I’m sorry, Teacher Ran! I’m guilty, punish me quickly!”
Jiang Qiaoye was still silent. Xiang Que was about to speak, but Ran Mingyue waved him off: “I know what you all mean. It’s fine, I accept.”
Her generosity only made the others feel more excessive.
Li Guang remained silent now. Her goal had been achieved. She silently peeled the wrapper off a second candy: “Want some candy?”
Only Ran Mingyue got the second candy. And it was peeled by Bear Ears herself. The others started to envy her.
“Can I have one? Where did you buy this mint candy? It works so well,” Jiang Qiaoye’s voice was noticeably smaller and lacked confidence. He watched longingly as Li Guang delivered the candy to Ran Mingyue’s mouth.
Hua Yuzhi: “I want one too.”
“Me too!” Wen Yingzhi pulled Hua Yuzhi, giving her a look that said, Why are you causing trouble again? Then she turned to Li Guang, “Bear Ears, give me one. I feel like I’m going to throw up again.”
Li Guang refused.
It wasn’t about anything else; it was her own little selfish feeling. She didn’t want to give it to anyone right now, except Ran Mingyue.
In Li Guang’s view, she saw the curve of Ran Mingyue’s lips deepen after eating the candy.
It seems I understand a little… Is this what Sister Mingyue meant by being special?
It turns out she’s so easily satisfied.
Ran Mingyue couldn’t stop feeling happy that no one else had one, and Li Guang even calling her “Teacher Ran” sounded so sweet.
Sucking on the candy, feeling the cool mint refresh her, she gently patted Li Guang’s face. “So thoughtful. How did you think of this?”
“I looked up some information when I saw the question on the board, so I prepared it in advance. I’m glad I managed to buy it.” Li Guang’s eyes sparkled. “Sister Mingyue, did it help you?”
Sigh, now she’s back to “Sister Mingyue.”
Ran Mingyue said, “It helped me a lot. I don’t feel uncomfortable anymore.”
The others watched longingly, but Li Guang had already left without looking back. While Wen Yingzhi was trying to stop her, Jiang Qiaoye leaned in close to Ran Mingyue and asked:
“Sister Ran, holding it in is hard. I tried to hold it in, but I couldn’t. You… you were clearly afraid yesterday. How did you overcome it today?” Jiang Qiaoye asked.
Ran Mingyue said, “Wirework in a film crew is tough, but all the protections are in place. Even though I have a fear of heights, I can do my job when my body is protected.”
“I see, you have strong willpower… No wonder you didn’t use a double for anything. Brother Que, didn’t you come from the same film crew as Sister Ran? How come you couldn’t do it now?”
“…I couldn’t. Little Ran was completely focused on the work schedule while we were filming and never went on strike because of her fear. I really admire that,” Xiang Que sighed helplessly. The mint candy had completely melted in his mouth, making his words sound wistful. “Also, I’ve been neglecting my exercise lately, and I’ve been filming modern dramas, so… I’ve forgotten some wirework techniques.”
“It’s the core strength,” Ran Mingyue said point-blank. “That means neither of you has a strong core.”
“A man’s waist is no good, then he’s truly no good / with a heavy heart”
“I knew my goddess didn’t deliberately refuse to jump yesterday”
“Are those anti-fans who called her a diva not going to apologize?”
“Why are there so many negative posts about Ran Mingyue recently? Is she taking the route of gaining popularity through controversy after returning to the country? She was clearly ranked high in the ‘National Goddess Favorite’ polls before”
“Hahahahahahaha Teacher Ran wasn’t affected at all~ You do you”
“I like Bear Ears the staff member =w=”
“Guard 06 is always so caring towards Teacher Ran, sob sob. If this continues, I’m really going to start shipping them”
“Want to see her face! Please post a video of her face!”
“SOS, sisters, did you see! That bunny costume, the one that’s a variation of the security uniform, is now on sale!!”
“I already snatched a set. Going to wear it for my girlfriend tonight. Sigh, sigh“
“Don’t be in such a hurry to leave.” While Ran Mingyue was answering questions for other wirework enthusiasts, Wen Yingzhi was demanding Li Guang’s mint candy. “Give me a candy, Little Sister? Oh, wait, I want two.”
Hua Yuzhi followed, checking Wen Yingzhi here and checking herself there, making sure no one could hear their conversation.
“Wen Yingzhi, who are you calling ‘Little Sister’? Little Sister Bear Ears is my little sister.” After recording these two episodes, Hua Yuzhi was growing fond of Li Guang and wanted to be her friend.
Wen Yingzhi scoffed: “Can she be your little sister? She’s someone else’s little sister, and she’s Ran Mingyue’s little sister.”
Li Guang remained unresponsive when they talked about others. It was only when Wen Yingzhi teased about her and Ran Mingyue that she would get shy.
She took a handful of candies from her pocket and quietly slipped them into Wen Yingzhi’s hand.
“Thank you, Teacher Wen, for your help.”
She had planned this ever since seeing the negative comments about Ran Mingyue. She was glad Wen Yingzhi had actually made everyone choose this task.
“Help?” Hua Yuzhi understood a bit when she heard Li Guang say this. “You specifically wanted everyone to choose this task? Oh… It was for Teacher Ran! Ah! It was for Teacher Ran!”
The expression on Hua Yuzhi’s face was a mixture of emotions, finally settling on: “Are you two serious?”
“They’re more serious than we are,” Wen Yingzhi said nonchalantly. She always knew how to easily provoke Hua Yuzhi’s anger.
Li Guang said, “Please don’t misunderstand. I was just doing what I could to help.”
If it were anyone else, any fan of Ran Mingyue wouldn’t stand by and let her suffer so many slanders for no reason.
Li Guang retreated to the staff area, patiently watching the figures in the amusement park.
The candy was used, but the pills weren’t. It seemed everyone was still relatively young, so their physical fitness was good, and they recovered quickly.
She thought for a moment and then put the pills back into her pocket.
After Li Guang left, Hua Yuzhi touched her face. Wen Yingzhi handed her a handful of candies: “Here, have some. You looked miserable.”
“Thank you,” Hua Yuzhi said in a low voice. “Are you trying to shut me up because I saw your true colors?”
Wen Yingzhi said lazily, “Yes, yes, believe whatever you want.”
“Hmph.” Hua Yuzhi popped a candy into her mouth. “Bear Ears is really interesting.”
“That little girl is really good. She’s genuinely good to Mingyue,” Wen Yingzhi’s gaze shifted elsewhere. “And it seems Mingyue feels differently about her, too.”
Hua Yuzhi said, “Who wouldn’t want a security guard like that? Can’t I really have Bear Ears as my security guard next season? I mentioned it to the director last time, and she said no.”
Wen Yingzhi: “…” Just save it!
Wang Rou came out: “Congratulations to everyone on completing a new experience. Now that the debriefing is over, let’s announce the scores.”
“In this round, aside from the first guest, Xiang Que, and the last guest, Ran Mingyue, no one else completed the task. After reviewing the footage, Xiang Que’s long sword only touched the apple, causing it to fall. However, Ran Mingyue’s long sword directly pierced the apple, and Little Ran gave us an excellent wirework performance. Therefore, the only excellence award for this round goes to Ran Mingyue. Any objections?”
“NO!!!!” Everyone spoke in unison. Song Suoqi pushed Ran Mingyue forward to receive the award.
Li Guang acted as a staff member, walking around the guests while holding the award card, like holding a red flag at a school sports day. She bent down with a smile and said solemnly, “Princess, please accept your award.”
“Hahahahahahaha”
“Director, go check if Bear II is using her phone at work. Her internet speed is flying”
“It would be awkward if others said it, but how is it just right when Bear II says it?”
“Is my internet slow? How did she go from Bear Ears to Bear II?”
“It’s just a loving abbreviation! Bear Ears = Bear Ear = Bear II!”
Ran Mingyue accepted it with a smile.
Li Guang skipped away. Ran Mingyue looked at the card, which read “Free Choice.”
“The Free Choice Card is a special VIP item card awarded because you were the only one who completed the task in this round. You can freely choose what you want to do later, and you retain the right to choose your camp and teammates until the start of the next round.”
Jiang Qiaoye: “Director, what about us?”
“The remaining guests have fifteen minutes of rest time, and then you’ll stay here to complete the task for points. Your score will determine how you cook lunch,” Wang Rou said. “The sole winner, Ran Mingyue, gets to go have fun. You all have to prepare a meal at the main camp before she returns for lunch.”
Cooking?
The guests, who had all ordered takeout yesterday, clearly had big letters written in their eyes: Are you trying to make things difficult for us?
Li Guang stifled a laugh outside the camera’s view. There was nothing this production team wouldn’t do.
They must have realized the guests weren’t doing things themselves, so they deliberately came up with another way to torment them. Once a weakness was discovered on this kind of show, it would be exploited until that weakness turned into a strength.
It was practically the Transformation Diary of Entertainment Guests.
“The fifteen-minute rest period starts now. We’ll gather in fifteen minutes,” Wang Rou called Ran Mingyue over. “Little Ran, come see what you want to do later.”
Ran Mingyue walked over, standing just one person away from Li Guang. Their eyes quickly met and then darted away.
Wang Rou opened a small booklet. Li Guang accidentally saw the cover, which had the bold words “Collection of Romantic Things Couples Can Do on a Date.”
“Here, take a look and see what you want?”
Ran Mingyue asked, “Solo activity?”
“With a camera,” Wang Rou said concisely. “You don’t finish until 12:30 PM. Are you in such a hurry? Is there something urgent?”
“A date,” Ran Mingyue said. “Turn the page.”
This page was full of things like the Ferris wheel, Ghost-style pottery, and flower arranging classes.
Besides herself and Wang Rou looking, a curious little head was also constantly trying to peek over.
“Stop joking. A person without a date saying she’s going on a date. Just focus on work,” Wang Rou turned the page. This page was mostly about making drinks.
Coffee, small cakes, and bubble tea! Wow! And cats!
Li Guang’s eyes lit up.
“Do I bring staff?” Ran Mingyue asked again. She kept observing Li Guang’s expression out of the corner of her eye, having already made up her mind.
“Yes, you must bring your accompanying security guard for protection, just in case, but the main group will stay here,” Wang Rou said. “Just treat it as a walk at the public’s expense. Have you chosen?”
Ran Mingyue said, “Yes, I’ve chosen the bubble tea cat cafe.”
Li Guang: Wow!
She excitedly looked up, ready to exchange a knowing clap with Ran Mingyue, but Wang Rou spotted her: “Little Bear II, why are you here?”
“Coincidence!” Li Guang quickly shrank her head back, laughed sheepishly, and stopped looking over.
