Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Why do you have a car?

The two people leaving the room received mobile phones sent by the production team, intended to allow the guests to contact each other, since the production team confiscated their phones and wallets, they surely couldn’t expect them to actually walk to the filming site.

The mobiles only had a few basic functions: calling, text messaging, and a location feature, which allowed to see each person’s exact location on the positioning software.

"Yuan, haven’t you guys set off yet?"

Because Feng Siyu and her team had just gotten the phones, the positioning system had just been activated, and their location information had only just appeared after the phone was turned on.

This discovery immediately surprised everyone else.

"Yuan, I heard the punishment prepared by the production team is really scary, you guys better hurry up!"

The fool who called Feng Siyu was a comedian, and he and his partner borrowed two bicycles from passersby; now it seemed like they had already covered about a third of the distance.

"Don’t worry, we’ll catch up."

Feng Siyu and Qiao Yi exchanged a glance, seeing similar cunningness in each other’s eyes.

The fool on the other end of the phone hesitated before saying.

"Yuan, you go ahead first, we’ll come back and pick you up!"

Nice guy, that fool. They had only met once, and he was already so kind-hearted, which was truly rare.

"All good, no need for you guys to pick us up. Wait for ten minutes, we’ll come to pick you up."

Qiao Yi snatched the phone from Feng Siyu’s hand, said a sentence, and then hung up the phone. In the time it took for the two to talk, they had already reached the hotel’s front gate, where the director who had issued yesterday’s task was standing, as if deliberately waiting for them.

"Morning, director, we got here early, didn’t we?"

Feng Siyu waved her paw and walked over to the director’s side with Qiao Yi, giggling, acting as the director’s bodyguards.

The director glanced at the two of them without saying anything, instead turning to check the time again.

5:45, the earliest departing duo was almost there, and these two had not even started yet!

After waiting for another two minutes and seeing they had no intention of starting, the director finally couldn’t help but ask.

"Aren’t you in a hurry to head to the destination? You’re going to run out of time!"

"Us? But we’ve already reached the destination, haven’t we?"

Feng Siyu exchanged a look with Qiao Yi, then smiled broadly and stomped her feet to indicate they were standing right on the destination.

"How can you..."

"Hey, director, we had an agreement, didn’t we? Your task was to reach the first formal filming location before six o’clock, right?"

The director recalled for a moment and nodded, but even so, they couldn’t regard this place as...

As Feng Siyu teased and Qiao Yi stifled her laughter, the director finally came back to her senses.

"Director, didn’t we hold the opening ceremony right here last night? This place is naturally the first destination! Shouldn’t we get a reward for being the first to arrive?"

The smile on Feng Siyu’s face looked evil no matter how you looked at it, causing the director to break into a cold sweat.

Who would’ve thought Feng Siyu would actually exploit a loophole in his task! If everyone followed her method, the show would be in chaos!

As the director contemplated how to respond to Feng Siyu, she didn’t notice that both Feng Siyu and Qiao Yi’s on-site cameramen had expressions of shock.

Not only did the director and the audience watching the livestream think that this loophole-exploiting idea came from Feng Siyu, only the two of them knew that the idea must have been given by Qiao Yi to Feng Siyu last night!

A newbie to such a large variety show, not only was she not nervous at all, but she could even exploit a loophole to benefit herself, truly befitting the boss of a big company!

The person following Qiao Yi with a camera had been specially instructed about Qiao Yi’s identity; ostensibly following her, but in reality, the production team had arranged for her to have a bodyguard, fearing any trouble might befall this precious young lady on their program.

The director, after discussing with someone for a moment, turned back with a helpless expression.

"Alright, it counts that you were first, no reward, but you guys..."

"Forget about the reward, we’re all friends! But, surely there should be some benefits for being first, like hitching a ride with someone, right?"

Qiao Yi poked Feng Siyu’s butt from behind, and Feng Siyu immediately spoke up, eager to find a car that looked good to ride in.

That was their true intention, after all, making such a big fuss just for a ride!

The director suddenly felt somewhat weary; how could these two girls be so crafty!

The final result of the negotiation was that the two young ladies successfully robbed... oh no, won the right to use a car.

Watching the two girls drive away victoriously, the director’s face was full of worry, hoping that the two ladies would know when to stop. Otherwise, looking at the guests who were still struggling on the road, he’d think they were quite senseless!

Being senseless wasn’t up to him to decide. After getting the car, Qiao Yi directly used the phone’s positioning to pick up the fool and his partner, and a group of people set off for the destination.

"Yuan, how did you manage to get this car? I tried when I came downstairs, and they ignored me completely!"

The fool spoke with a bit of grievance, barely acquainted but already treating Qiao Yi and Feng Siyu as if they were close sisters, commending them endlessly for securing the nanny car.

"No big deal, just took a word or two!"

Feng Siyu waved her hand arrogantly, and Qiao Yi twisted her arm, reminding her they were still live, so she quickly behaved and sat down properly.

"It’s just a car, you’ll know soon how we got it."

By the time Qiao Yi and her group arrived, only four people had reached the destination, sitting on the side, drinking water and resting. Seeing Qiao Yi and her group getting off the car, they immediately felt aggrieved.

Jiajia was the second group to arrive; her partner was not young and struggled to keep up, otherwise, she should have been the first!

Jiajia was blaming her partner just now, but the moment she saw Qiao Yi and her group, she forgot all about her partner, and almost blurted out accusations of cheating and backdoor deals.

"Wow! Friends, you’ve arrived quite early, huh? Seems like we’re a bit late."

Qiao Yi and Feng Siyu pretended to be warmly welcoming, and the two groups of people shook hands and embraced with false enthusiasm, grinning through clenched teeth while awaiting the appearance of the first fool.

Finally, the last two arrived, and upon seeing Qiao Yi’s car, they also started feeling discontented.

Exploiting loopholes wasn’t something one could keep to oneself; letting everyone know the kind of benefits available was the way of the world. Otherwise, those envious folks would surely create a huge fuss!

"Yuan, aren’t you going to explain? Why do you guys have a car, while we had to walk through streets and alleys?"
