Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius - Chapter 245 - 224: Epic Embarrassment Scene

Chapter 245: Chapter 224: Epic Embarrassment Scene

Bai Zhe immediately recognized the “Ji Xizhi” booth.

Fang Zhuyue and Le Qiqi could certainly recognize it too.

You Yingmeng didn’t specifically learn about Ji Xizhi, but there were many rumors about Ji Xizhi in the circle, so it was hard not to know Ji Xizhi studied law.

The four instantly locked onto Zhu Xiu’an’s booth.

Bai Zhe, Fang Zhuyue, and Le Qiqi all stood in front of Zhu Xiu’an’s booth at almost the same time.

No one was paying attention to the sign in front of the original Ji Xizhi booth.

Only those who had been squatting in the live broadcast room saw the show’s cheeky move.

Ji Xizhi had left, but the booth hadn’t been dismantled, especially since the sign outside just moments ago said “Buy salted fish, get free tutoring.”

The words written by Ji Xizhi had been swiftly changed by the program staff.

Changed to: Fish Goddess Temple.

[What the hell! The Fish Goddess herself is gone, haha!]

[Ji Xizhi might be gone, but her spirit and soul linger forever!]

[Will anyone seriously believe this? I can’t hold back my laughter!]

The remaining guests in the booth heard the voices of the temporary guests, and they reacted accordingly.

These must be customers arranged by the program crew.

Zhu Xiu’an was thrilled when he heard that several people were standing in front of his booth.

He picked up the voice changer wanting to shout, but remembered the little boy’s words earlier and held back.

Silence is golden.

In front of the booth, Le Qiqi was the first to speak, “This is too obvious, I want to buy from Ji Xizhi’s booth!”

Fang Zhuyue followed closely and directly placed a hundred yuan on Zhu Xiu’an’s booth, “I’m buying all of Ji Xizhi’s booth!”

Bai Zhe glanced at the camera fans and smiled, “I heard Qin Yutian mention Teacher Ji ages ago, and I’ve secretly learned a lot about law from Teacher Ji. I really like it; this time participating in the show is to get guidance from Teacher Ji. I wonder if Teacher Ji is available? But of course, I’m supporting Teacher Ji all the way~”

Bai Zhe indeed wanted to pursue Ji Xizhi, but as an idol, he definitely couldn’t discuss romance in front of fans — if romance were to happen, it would be clandestine.

But as long as Ji Xizhi falls for him, whether or not to publicly acknowledge it would definitely be his decision.

Bai Zhe had long planned to approach Ji Xizhi under the guise of legal guidance, and it fit perfectly now; discussing hobbies first before meeting up would greatly enhance their favorable impression.

Bai Zhe was confident in his looks.

He just miscalculated the people inside the booth.

Zhu Xiu’an himself didn’t expect they’d mistake him for Ji Xizhi!

This was practically a godsend!

Zhu Xiu’an covered the voice changer’s mic and excitedly said to the camera, “Turns out silence really is golden! Today I’ll be the richest person in the program!”

“Ha! The shame of the last episode will be my day of warrior return this episode!”

Fans in the live stream had already laughed to the point of crowing at this mix-up.

[Can’t… hold it in anymore, I want to laugh, I really want to laugh!]

[I’m already shaking with laughter, so excited for Zhu Xiu’an to walk out and everyone’s faces~ epic awkward scene, history will remember this!]

[I want to tell Bai Zhe, I don’t know if Teacher Ji is available, but Teacher Yue definitely is!!!]

The remaining three salted fish booth guests also heard the conversation.

They already knew Ji Xizhi had packed up and left, and with the outside people mistaking him, it was clear — Zhu Xiu’an was the one who wrote the legal case analyses.

The other three guests: “…”

The program crew had initially stipulated that no identities could be revealed, so the guests couldn’t say anything to remind the few people.

Le Qiqi hadn’t planned to fully support Ji Xizhi since her cousin-in-law Sheng Yaoyao was here.

But with everyone snatching, Le Qiqi suddenly rebelled and shouted across to the other booths, “Sorry cousin-in-law, I’m supporting Zhi Zhi first! I’ll let my brother apologize when we get home!!!”

Inside the booth, Sheng Yaoyao: “…….” Can’t stop the child from doing something foolish.

–

Zhu Xiu’an’s booth had limited salted fish; apart from You Yingmeng, all three guests wanted to grab them, so in the end, to be fair, the program crew suggested a little game: they’ll randomly play song, and whoever manages to dance until the end wins and can make a purchase first.

Bai Zhe, Le Qiqi, and Fang Zhuyue all agreed readily.

Although none of them were actors, they all had some dance abilities to varying degrees.

Bai Zhe, no need to mention, even though he was the main vocalist of a team, he definitely had dance skills; Le Qiqi was taught dance since childhood, and while Fang Zhuyue couldn’t match the Le Family, he could still dance.

The three warmed up, ready and waiting for the music.

The game began, and the crew rolled out a huge speaker.

The first song started.

“My hometown~ Hey, it’s right here in this village~”

The three guests: “?”

[Hahaha, this episode is too bamboo shoot-like, the hills are stripped clean by the show crew!]

[What’s the matter! The show’s theme is experiencing life! This is life~]

Bai Zhe never thought he’d be stumped by dancing on a variety show; this song left his limbs stiff and his mind like water, unable to lift an arm or his head.

Le Qiqi was also silent.

Breaking the silence was Fang Zhuyue; Fang Zhuyue’s mind didn’t move, but her body started shaking first — whether it’s suitable or not, just move, staying still means losing!

Le Qiqi, encouraged by Fang Zhuyue, quickly set aside her pride and started moving. Even if she twisted randomly, her years of dance training showed a hint of Latin and waltz, but paired with this song, it felt bizarre — extremely bizarre.

Bai Zhe saw the two girls moving and, after much thought, decided to dance! Despite wearing tight clothes unsuitable for dancing, he started moving too.

Anyway, Ji Xizhi can’t see him in the booth right now; if she sees later, she’ll be touched by his effort.

Bai Zhe self-hypnotized and began dancing.

[Uncle Wang, I love you; I never thought Bai Bai would dance such down-to-earth moves in this lifetime!]

[For the first time I found out this er’renzhuan could interpret ballet, Latin, waltz, and street dance styles, amazing, Director Wang has talent for directing dance shows!]

[Already curling toes to the ground, even a dreamy Barbie isn’t enough! Seems like more curling ahead!]

Once accepting this start, putting down one’s pride became simpler.

The program crew madly switched songs; various quirky tunes emerged one after another.

The three danced for over ten minutes, attracting a circle of villagers drawn by the music.

More were watching the song and dance — some even lifted their kids to watch the excitement.

Bai Zhe started off somewhat reserved, but gradually, after ten songs, his body was tired, and he no longer cared.

The crew specially cut into a main song from AK group; this song had a strong rhythm and large dance movements. When it first came out, it exploded on social media, and everyone praised its dance level.

The program crew balanced it out, giving Fang Zhuyue and Le Qiqi ballet and Latin showcases, while Bai Zhe also received a chance to shine.

Bai Zhe was intensely dancing, suddenly hearing the team song fired him up, disregarding his tight clothes, and he started dancing vigorously with muscle memory.

–

Meanwhile, Ji Xizhi had already packed up. After packing, she didn’t do much but read a book under a tree and enjoy the sea breeze.

She had just finished reading a section when she heard the loud sound from the show’s speakers, looked up to see villagers continuously heading towards the show.

Ji Xizhi was due for a break, so she went over to take a look.

Ji Xizhi, with her outstanding appearance, was easily recognized by villagers as a show artist, so upon her arrival, she was automatically moved to the front of the crowd.

Ji Xizhi had just made her way in, not yet had time to see clearly who was dancing.

She had just steadied herself.

When she heard a clear “rip” sound from the pants of the male artist closest to her.

Ji Xizhi: “?”

Bai Zhe: “!!!”
