“Perfect Holiday’s” contract was quickly finalized, and on this end, Chai Feiran’s schedule was arranged to accommodate the recording time.
The “Perfect Holiday” program announced the news of Chai Feiran’s participation right after finalizing the contract.
He became the first guest for this episode of “Perfect Holiday,” coinciding with the airing of the previous episode of “We Are the Strongest” featuring Chi Feiran.
Chi Feiran’s performance during the live recording of “We Are the Strongest” was remarkable. After editing, the intense atmosphere of the entire venue, where he calmly wrote answers at lightning speed, created a sensation among the fans. They were excited to see their idol performing so well. Some even questioned if the opponent Liu Nian let him win, given Liu Nian’s professional background. Losing so badly to a star who relies on his looks seemed unfair.
Liu Nian, also known as Durian Sago, felt complicated when he saw these doubts under his Weibo post. He recalled the feeling of being deceived during the recording and felt a bit annoyed.
However, Liu Nian was not one to lose gracefully. Despite losing in the competition, he responded seriously to a skeptical Weibo post: “There are always people beyond comparison. The program topics are randomly selected on-site, and there is no cheating. I accept my defeat and hope to have more opportunities to interact with Feiran.”
This response surprised many. Liu Nian was quite popular in the field of knowledge sharing, translating professional information on his Weibo account.
Chi Feiran, almost effortlessly, defeated him in the competition, showcasing his impressive skills. “We Are the Strongest” was gaining popularity, and the discussion about it was intense. “Perfect Holiday” was the next highly anticipated reality show, and the new season had already piqued the fans’ interest, boosting Chi Feiran’s popularity with two trending positions on social media.
Chen Mengyang, watching the broadcast with his phone in hand, was delighted. He replayed Chi Feiran’s answering segment several times before continuing to watch. When the tension eased during the scoring session, he couldn’t help but laugh: “Haha! The program team is so tricky! They coincidentally cut to Feiran saying ‘fake’ just before going to the commercial break!”
Zhou Ya, beside him, couldn’t help but laugh at his reaction. Chi Feiran himself didn’t expect such a positive response after the broadcast.
Li Yuan also checked the audience’s reactions and thought that his young master’s versatile image was well-established. If there were more opportunities to showcase his skills on “Perfect Holiday” recording, it would be even better.
Thinking about this, Li Yuan felt a bit regretful. If he could pull some strings to give his young master more screen time during the recording…
Unfortunately, he could only think about it in his mind. There was no need to ask about such matters.
While they were excited about joining “Perfect Holiday,” Rong Jin, upon seeing the official Weibo, said to Chang Haoqing, “I also want to participate. Didn’t they invite me? I’m going too.”
Chang Haoqing replied, “…”
Chang Haoqing wanted to pretend to be deaf. He didn’t want to deal with Rong Jin.
Rong Jin said, “I have one condition: when they form groups, put me in the same group with him.”
Chang Haoqing couldn’t hold back anymore and sneered, “Why don’t you ask the program team to record a special episode just for you two? Are you treating it as a perfect honeymoon?”
Rong Jin, surprisingly, didn’t respond for a long time, not even a sarcastic comment.
Chang Haoqing, prepared for a confrontation, felt awkward waiting for Rong Jin’s response.
When he finally looked at Rong Jin…
Chang Haoqing mentally exclaimed, feeling like he might be hallucinating.
Because, in his eyes, Rong Jin, with a face thicker than a city wall, usually shameless and self-absorbed, actually… showed a bit of a shy expression!
Chang Haoqing was shocked. Did he witness a miracle?
Rong Jin returned to his senses and pretended to be calm, saying, “What are you thinking? He’s still young…”
Even the usually confident tone had a hint of weakness.
Chang Haoqing, speechless, wiped his face. “I should be the one asking what you’re thinking!”
Being shameless and turning the tables! What kind of person is this?
Rong Jin didn’t continue the conversation. He focused on the main point, “I want to participate.”
Chang Haoqing insisted, “I disagree!”
In case they clash during the recording, it might turn into a national coming-out event! Rong Jin might get drowned in the sea immediately after the recording!
Rong Jin said, “The producer’s phone number starts with 188, right?”
Chang Haoqing, feeling helpless, understood that at this level, the role of the agent was mainly to negotiate and avoid Rong Jin personally negotiating the price, affecting his image.
Rong Jin, who usually cherished his feathers, wouldn’t contact program teams by himself. This would ruin his image and break his godly aura, as if it were ruining his life.
But now, things were different. Chang Haoqing knew very well that Rong Jin’s mind had gone awry. He even knew how to be shy. What else couldn’t he do?
Chang Haoqing, while contacting the “Perfect Holiday” program team, felt as if he were living a bleak second half of his life. Instead of directly negotiating Rong Jin’s madness with the producer, he subtly expressed, “You know, Rong Jin almost never accepts variety shows, especially this kind of reality show. This time, it’s mainly because he saw a friend taking it and thought your program is not bad. He just wants to join the show with his friend for some relaxation.”
He hinted that Rong Jin wanted to participate because of Chi Feiran. If the other party understood, they might arrange some interaction between the two.
The producer, also experienced in the industry, eagerly agreed, “No problem! I’ll take care of everything! Absolutely guaranteed!”
Chang Haoqing, hearing the quick assurance, felt tears streaming down his face. He politely said goodbye to the producer, then threw his phone and shouted at Rong Jin, “I’m telling you! Don’t mess around!”
Rong Jin just looked at him with condemning eyes, “Have a healthier mindset. I just want to… want to see him…”
Chang Haoqing was on the verge of collapse. He didn’t want to see the shy Rong Jin. He missed the Rong Jin who ruthlessly teased him!
Chi Feiran, when informed about the earlier recording schedule for “Perfect Holiday,” was a bit surprised. Coordinating schedules for different artists usually led to delayed recordings, not early ones.
Fortunately, during the contract signing, the program team had mentioned the possibility of schedule adjustments. Li Yuan hadn’t filled his schedule completely, so the adjustment was relatively convenient.
It was a bit strange, though. The recording was about to start, and Chi Feiran still didn’t know who the other five guests were. Even the official Weibo of the program was silent.
Li Yuan, noticing this, commented, “This seems to be a surprise element for the guests, giving them a sense of mystery. It’s also a good way to increase the audience’s anticipation.”
Chi Feiran nodded, thinking that this approach was indeed interesting.
As they were discussing, Chi Feiran received a message from Rong Jin.
Rong Jin, who had seen the official announcement, thinking about it, decided to share this information with his good friend. He sent a WeChat message to Rong Jin: “Brother Rong, I heard there will be impressive guests on this reality show. Looking forward to it.”
On the other side, Chang Haoqing saw Rong Jin, whose mind was seemingly broken, looking at a WeChat message. Chang couldn’t understand why Rong Jin was blushing. He wanted to know what they talked about that could make Rong Jin react like this.
He leaned over and took a glance. Rong Jin didn’t avoid him; instead, he brought the phone closer.
Chang Haoqing didn’t understand at first. But when he saw the WeChat message sent by the little master, he finally understood.
Chang Haoqing had no strength left to scold. His throat was already hoarse. “Big brother, please, he clearly doesn’t know it’s you. Can you stop secretly enjoying this?”
Rong Jin, still immersed in the joy of being praised, didn’t pay attention to him.
Chang Haoqing accepted his defeat. “Fine, enjoy yourself. I’ll check the real estate prices and buy you a luxurious cemetery. Since you have such popularity, even a grand tombstone will have worshippers. I guess you won’t be buried in the ancestral tomb of the Chi family. I’ll light incense for you on special occasions.”
Rong Jin replied, “Pick a few outfits for me, good-looking ones.”
Chang Haoqing retorted, “I’ll pick mourning clothes for you. Handcrafted, deluxe edition!”
On the day of departure, the weather was good. The program’s cameraman started filming from the airport, attracting onlookers.
The destination was F Country. Perhaps the departure locations were different, or they scheduled flights at different times. Anyway, Chi Feiran didn’t run into fellow participants during the journey.
When the plane landed, Chi Feiran’s phone was confiscated, and he was separated from Li Yuan and others. Instead, he was shoved into a car with tinted windows.
Chi Feiran: “…”
If it weren’t for the cameraman’s lens almost poking him in the face, and many program staff members around, he would have thought he was being kidnapped.
The destination was unknown, and the cameraman didn’t get enough footage, nor did they speak to Chi Feiran. He had no choice but to pat the car partition and raise his voice, asking the driver, “How long until we arrive?”
No response from outside, so Chi Feiran could only sit quietly and wait.
He didn’t know how long they had been driving, but he felt like he was about to fall asleep. Finally, the car stopped, and the driver’s voice came, “We’re here! Get ready to disembark!”
The cameraman immediately retreated to the corner, preparing to hand over the shooting duties.
Chi Feiran hesitated before coming to the car door, cautiously trying to open it.
As the door opened, he was greeted with a magnificent scene, and he widened his eyes. This…
The program’s designated host shouted enthusiastically, “Surprised? Unexpected? The destination for this holiday! The most luxurious castle!”
