Chapter 37 Rating Part 2
【Oh, did I see that right? Ye Wanyin came in last place?】
[I don't believe it! There must be a script! There's something fishy going on!]
[What you said is a bit contradictory. In a script, the characters who are initially portrayed the worst usually get a redemption later on, and Ye Wanyin would definitely agree to that. But if it's a behind-the-scenes manipulation, then it's pure black. Think it over before you speak.]
Haha, this isn't the first time they've contradicted themselves.
[Bullying confirmed! They've been targeting Wanwan and bullying her relentlessly, haven't they? I can't stand it anymore, I'm leaving.]
You'd better really leave.
Ye Wanyin was stunned. Although she knew Ye Sanqing wouldn't give her a high score, last place?
She quickly composed herself, her eyes glistening with tears as she looked around at everyone, "Everyone... do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
She wanted to see who was so heartless as to give her a low score, and whether they would feel guilty or ashamed when they saw her tears.
However, no one present felt guilty, and Ye Sanqing looked directly at her with complete composure.
"Wanwan..." Deng Lingxuan wanted to say a few words of comfort to her, but she was always the one being comforted by others, and she never knew how to comfort others.
"You're happy to see Wanwan like this?" Deng Lingxuan wasn't good at comforting people, but she was good at attacking them, so she turned her attention to Ye Sanqing.
"No," Ye Sanqing denied.
"You still say you're not happy? You're practically laughing out loud!"
"I didn't laugh, which means I'm not happy enough." Ye Sanqing shook his head, looking at her with an expression that said, "You still don't understand me."
"Uh." Deng Lingxuan was stumped again. So, was she happy or unhappy?
"Next, we'll announce everyone's scores and reasons," Zhu Song continued, going through the process. "If you have any questions, feel free to discuss them amicably after we finish."
He was also complaining in his heart, "You guys know that Ye Sanqing gave Ye Wanyin a low score before you even saw the score?"
He glanced at the score sheet in his hand again; he wasn't the only one who gave a low score.
“Let’s start with the score for the first place. Pei Canxing’s score is: Sheng Hanyu 9 points, because he is the younger brother.”
"Ye Sanqing, 10 points, because she is my friend's younger sister."
"Ye Wanyin, 6 points, calling me 'brother', how scary!"
"Pan Hongyu, 8 points, thank you for the shopping list."
"Yin Xiangming, 7 points. Thanks for the shopping list, but he's a bit hard to approach."
"Deng Lingxuan, 6 points. It's not good to talk nonsense, but she apologized, so she passes."
"Ji Wan, 7 points. Big brother is a good guy!"
No one reacted much to the score, as it was generally within the normal range. Except for Deng Lingxuan, who glared at him but didn't dare say anything.
Ye Wanyin was deep in thought, wondering why he was reacting so strongly to calling her "brother." It shouldn't be like this; in the past, whenever she called a man "brother," he would immediately become exceptionally kind to her.
It's probably Ye Jin'er's fault! As soon as he saw Ye Jin'er standing on Ye Sanqing's side, he tried to curry favor with Ye Jin'er by putting her down and praising Ye Sanqing.
Hmph, what kind of singing king is he? He's just a sycophant!
If he really had a good relationship with Ye Jin'er, why hasn't he mentioned it? They must just be ordinary acquaintances at most.
Although she felt contempt in her heart, Ye Wanyin did not show it on the surface. She simply cast a resentful look at Pei Canxing, as if accusing him of misunderstanding.
Pei Canxing felt another chill run down her spine when she saw that look in her eyes. Help, was she really going to have to stay here for a month?
"Next is the second place, Sheng Hanyu's score, Pei Canxing, 9 points, he's a good brother and sings very well."
Everyone: ...I didn't realize Sheng Hanyu was a bit cold.
"Ye Sanqing, 10 points, bucket."
Ye Sanqing glanced at him after hearing this.
Where did this guy get such good chemistry? Her reasoning was the same.
Sheng Hanyu returned a knowing look.
"A bucket?" the crowd murmured, but seeing their exchange of glances, they could guess it was some kind of inside joke.
"What does 'bucket' mean?" Deng Lingxuan ignored all that and asked Sheng Hanyu directly.
Ye Sanqing was already quite angry when she got 10 points. What was this fierce woman? She was just a few words away from being threatened with a lawsuit, and she got two 10s.
She couldn't help but wonder, does being pretty mean you'll be popular with men?
Because she was young and her environment was basically a vacuum created by human intervention, she didn't think too deeply about it at the time. She just subconsciously thought that children who knew how to act cute would get candy.
“I can explain, but are you sure you want me to explain?” Sheng Hanyu replied with a smile, but her eyes were looking at Ye Wanyin.
Ye Wanyin: Huh? What does this have to do with me?
The bucket... Sheng Hanyu mentioned the banquet yesterday. The banquet... Ye Wanyin's expression changed as she recalled the bucket filled with lake water that was poured over Tong Wuyu's head.
"There's no need to explain the things between the two of you so clearly to everyone..." Ye Wanyin's original intention was to avoid mentioning what happened that day, but as soon as she opened her mouth, it seemed as if she was implying that they had a relationship.
“Indeed, then I won’t explain.” Sheng Hanyu nodded, then asked, “Since there’s no question about the person being scored, there’s no need for a special explanation, right?”
Zhu Song: "Yes, if the other party understands what it means, then it's not necessary."
Ye Sanqing: "I have no questions. Does anyone else have any questions?"
Ye Wanyin inexplicably recalled the day Ye Sanqing suddenly punched her, and there seemed to be a sentence with a very similar tone... as if her face was hurting again.
No one spoke, so Zhu Song continued reading, "Ye Wanyin, 1 point. I give 1 point because it's one person."
Ye Wanyin even found it difficult to question that statement. Was she supposed to argue that she wasn't human...?
“Pan Hongyu, 7 points, the list is a great help! But my son is not saying anything.”
"Yin Xiangming, 8 points. He's a good person, but he doesn't talk much."
Pan Hongyu: ? ? ? Does the fact that my son doesn't speak mean I have to take the blame?
And for the same reason, why does Yin Xiangming himself get an extra point? But it doesn't matter if she doesn't get affirmation, it's good that her son does.
"Deng Lingxuan, 2 points, because you're silly."
Hearing this blunt reason, Deng Lingxuan felt even more like crying than Ye Wanyin. Although she was a step ahead of Ye Wanyin, it seemed like she felt twice as wronged!
However, she knew that the other party was probably still bothered by what happened yesterday, so she didn't say anything, but she was thinking to herself, maybe there really is something wrong with you guys, otherwise, with three girls here, we'd give Ye Sanqing 10 points each.
"Ji Wan, 7 points. Taking care of a child is hard work, so I give him sympathy points."
Ji Wan nodded gratefully at him. Heavens above, earth below, he's really had a tough time!
[I've been wanting to ask this before, wasn't this show supposed to be a combination of celebrities and ordinary people? Ji Wan and Yin Xiangming certainly don't look like celebrities at first glance, but yesterday I saw in the comments that one acts in short dramas and the other in stage plays, is that even possible?]
[That was indeed the case for the first two or three seasons, but the standards were relaxed later. Anyone who is not listed in the entertainment industry can be considered a non-celebrity. This includes not only stage plays and short dramas, but also orchestral musicians and dancers.]
[Then what's the difference between this and being a celebrity...?]
Do you think people like them will ever appear on Weibo's trending topics, unless it's a social news story?
That's definitely not the case, but something still feels off.
What the audience didn't know was that something even stranger was coming soon.
But that's a story for later; we've already read out Ye Sanqing's score.
"Sheng Hanyu, 8 points, bucket."
Sheng Hanyu: ! No wonder he gave me that look just now, it turns out he felt a connection!
[It's still a bucket! What does that mean? I'm in a hurry!]
[Whose ship is giving out sweet moments? Oh, it's me!]
[Is this candy? Same reason, but a 2-point lower score. It's already showing signs of a bad ending!]
"Pei Canxing, 8 points. I think he knows the second brother, so I'll give him a point for his sake. Also, the song is good."
[The bucket is equal to face (or face) plus song (or song). How many points are equal to face (or song)?]
[Who told you to do this equation? It's hilarious!]
"Ye Wanyin, 0 points."
Ye Wanyin was prepared, and upon hearing this, she immediately began to let the tears she had prepared fall from her eyes. "Sister, do you hate me that much? So much that you'd rather be last in the group than give me a zero?"
"I'm not the last in the group. I'm not the last in the group, but who made me the last in the group?" Ye Sanqing said.
Ye Wanyin originally wanted to say that she had no team spirit in order to sabotage her own people, but when she heard the other party so frankly, and even threw a bunch of questions about "last place" back at her, she was stuck.
Why is Ye Sanqing always able to respond to such things so calmly? Doesn't she know that this will attract negative attention?
However, it's not necessarily a bad thing if you don't know... From then on, she spared no effort in leading the conversation in that direction!
"Pan Hongyu gets 6 points because she talks a lot, but her list is practical."
"Yin Xiangming got 6 points, which is passing," Zhu Song explained. "The reason is simply that he passed."
Yin Xiangming raised his head and glanced blankly at Ye Sanqing. He didn't know what this meant, but he didn't dare to ask.
Although he didn't speak, he could sense Ye Sanqing's tendency to say surprising things. If he couldn't respond to what the other said, he would only be embarrassed, so it was better not to ask now. He'd already passed, after all!
Pan Hongyu's expression softened when she heard that her son had the same score as her. It seemed that Ye Sanqing was the type to give low scores; if everyone got low scores, then it didn't matter.
The comments section was also buzzing with discussion.
[I'm so anxious! Why isn't Yin Xiangming asking?! I wish I could rush in and ask for him!]
What constitutes a passing grade? Is it appearance?
[It can't be just about his character, it's only been the first day of contact, right? Or is there some hidden meaning behind it?]
[I suspect the person upstairs watches too much film and television analysis; where did they get so many metaphors from?]
"Deng Lingxuan, 0.5 points."
Deng Lingxuan protested again, "It really is only 0.5 points?!"
"Didn't I just tell you? Your memory only lasts for 7 minutes," Ye Sanqing said.
Deng Lingxuan thought the units digit before the 0.5 wasn't zero, but something like 6.5 or 7.5. That wouldn't be unacceptable, but...
"Look on the bright side, you still have 0.5 points more than Ye Wanyin," Ye Sanqing comforted her.
Deng Lingxuan: I feel somewhat comforted, but something still feels off...
Ye Wanyin, who was mentioned again: ...
"Ji Wan, 7 points. If he didn't have any relatives, I could have given him two more points. What a pity."
Ji Wan was dizzy. No wonder he was ranked fourth; these three people were all very polite to him! Especially the two who attacked others with heavy blows.
This was one of the few times he wasn't just a background figure next to his niece, and he couldn't help but raise his head with a touch of pride.
"Hmph!!" Deng Lingxuan was very dissatisfied. It was one thing for Ye Sanqing to get votes because of his good looks, but why did her uncle get them?
She hadn't expected that, in terms of appearance alone, Ye Wanyin wasn't bad-looking at all, so her score couldn't possibly be due to her looks.
