From Runaway Bride to Global Queen
Chapter 231: Unexpected Fall

Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Unexpected Fall

Weiya slowly lifted four people into the air. Upon reaching the predetermined height, the rope above creaked faintly with a sound that made one’s teeth sour.

Qiao Yi shuddered at the sound, but seeing that Feng Siyu and the others were accustomed to it, she said nothing and held her "weapon" ready in an offensive and defensive stance.

"In the air and still maintaining such a standard pose, it looks like Miss Qiao has practiced!"

"Yes, yes, even some actors who frequently film might not be able to achieve this!"

"When comparing people, some fall short, and when comparing goods, some are discarded! Look at the others and then at Miss Qiao, this is the gap between people!"

The barrage in the live stream nearly filled the screen, and as soon as Qiao Yi’s identity was revealed, the number of viewers instantly surged.

After all, who doesn’t like a rich and beautiful woman? Although she comes from a wealthy background, a little fantasizing isn’t against the law.

Whenever the camera cuts to Qiao Yi, the barrage is sure to be filled with people lining up calling her "wife," even surpassing Feng Siyu in popularity.

The group recording the show was unaware of this; at this moment, their attention was entirely on the two people suspended in the air.

"3, 2, 1, begin!"

With the director’s command, two teams of four instantly raised their weapons and attacked each other.

Feng Siyu, who already loved extreme sports, was completely unaffected while hanging on the Weiya, adeptly attacking and defending, and while blocking another person’s sneak attack, he still managed to occasionally inflict some damage on Jiajia.

Jiajia, for some reason, clearly at odds with Feng Siyu, targeted Qiao Yi after being hoisted up, ignoring Feng Siyu’s sneak attacks, and swung her weapon at Qiao Yi.

It looked less like playing a game and more like brawling.

However, her limited skills were not a concern for Qiao Yi; she dodged Jiajia’s attacks with ease, even deliberately creating opportunities for Feng Siyu.

To outsiders, it appeared as four people vehemently fighting, but only those in the midst knew it was a scene totally orchestrated by Qiao Yi.

Jiajia even felt that if Qiao Yi wanted to win, they would be defeated in an instant!

Jiajia refused to accept this reality: her weapon swung even harder, and she began attacking Qiao Yi indiscriminately.

Just earlier, due to the presence of cameras nearby, Jiajia had to adhere to proper conduct targeting only Feng Siyu and Qiao Yi forcefully.

But now, an infuriated Jiajia even started striking at Qiao Yi’s head.

This change was not clearly visible in the live stream, but the few people on-site could see it clearly; they could even see Jiajia’s stick almost hitting Qiao Yi’s face!

"This... is this getting a bit dangerous?"

The foolish young boy muttered to his companion in a low voice.

Although he couldn’t quite make out the turmoil above, it was obvious that Jiajia’s actions were about to harm Qiao Yi.

"Creak, creak—"

Honestly, Qiao Yi didn’t take Jiajia’s provocations seriously at all; even if Jiajia fought with all her might on the ground in a one-on-one real PK, Qiao Yi could win with just one hand.

Not to mention on the Weiya, Qiao Yi could still win using just one hand.

However, Qiao Yi still looked solemn, not because of the fight with Jiajia, but because of the continuous creaking noises from the Weiya above.

If it could be explained as stretching during the lifting process initially, then now the other three’s Weiya were all fine, only hers was swaying significantly and emitting a teeth-grating friction sound.

Qiao Yi glanced at the two people opposite; their "equipment" was running low, while she and Feng Siyu still had plenty left.

End the battle quickly, she must have thought too much.

"Look! Look at Qiao Yi’s rope!"

The foolish boy who was observing the battle closely suddenly slapped his partner’s shoulder forcefully and pointed upwards, screaming at the four people above.

"What?"

Everyone was drawn by his shout, and after hearing another yell from him, they finally realized something and quickly turned their heads to look at the four people in the fray.

But, they were too late.

Qiao Yi’s falling figure seemed to move in slow motion, the brief two seconds infinitely stretched at this moment.

"Ah—quick, save her!"

"Yiyi!!"

The scene instantly became a chaotic mess, as a crowd of people all ran over.

But, they stopped halfway through their run.

"Hey! What’s the rush, I’m fine!"

Qiao Yi stood up from the sand, grinning and waving to the crowd here, her bright white teeth flashing a cold glint in the sun.

As she suspected, there was something wrong with her wire!

Qiao Yi dusted the sand off her body. For safety, the crew had laid a layer of sponge below and a very soft layer of sand beneath it.

This fall nearly made her eat a mouthful of sand.

Luckily she was quick with her hands, otherwise, this fall would definitely have made her suffer a bit.

From the perspective of the guests, they couldn’t see what happened when the wire snapped, but from the angle of the live broadcast, it was clear.

At the moment of the wire snapping, Qiao Yi quickly used the soft stick in her hand to trip up the rope on Feng Siyu’s body, creating a bit of buffering and she didn’t fall straight down.

This small buffer was enough for Qiao Yi to prepare adequately for the landing, so she wasn’t injured.

"My wife is so cool!"

"Ah ah ah!! From now on, she is my goddess!!!"

"Why did such an accident happen? The production team come out and give a reasonable explanation!"

Such an accident was terrifying, seeing Qiao Yi fall so easily, but falling from a five-meter height might have broken someone else’s arms or legs.

The guests had not yet arrived, and the production team people had already surrounded and started checking on Qiao Yi, fearing she might be injured.

You should know that at the moment Qiao Yi fell, the director almost had a heart stop, fearing if she got hurt in their show, they probably wouldn’t have a next episode!

The director’s breath almost stopped when he saw the nearly one-inch long cut on Qiao Yi’s calf.

"Quick! To the hospital! Quick!"

Qiao Yi herself didn’t even feel the pain until she was sprayed with a coagulant spray, only then did she realize her leg was injured.

Seeing the director’s suffocated expression, Qiao Yi almost inappropriately laughed out, but to avoid embarrassing the director too much, she controlled her expression and took the spray from the accompanying medical staff, spraying herself twice as a way to treat the wound.

"It’s okay, just a simple treatment will do, it’s just a small cut."
