Even if you belong to a demonic sect, you still have to bring glory to the country.
Chapter 240 Bear the consequences yourself
Chapter 240 Bear the consequences yourself
After Amon left, the Moon Community remained the same as always.
Every day, you can hear elderly men and women arguing over trivial matters, and you can often see Zhong Mingjuan sitting in the community, discussing current affairs with a group of elderly women with great enthusiasm.
Amidst laughter and conversation, it became the subject of her recent conversation about who was so unlucky.
Upon closer inspection, I realized—oh, it was myself.
"It seems like Li Sui's relatives have suddenly disappeared again recently, acting all mysterious. I wonder what they've been up to..."
Zhong Mingjuan, with an expression of complete control as if discussing other people's gossip, said: "I have some inside information, but you must not tell anyone, and don't let Li Sui know either!"
The older women who were talking with Zhong Mingjuan suddenly started to have shifty eyes.
He no longer approached with the same enthusiasm as before, asking, "What's the secret?"
Instead, he lowered his head.
Zhong Mingjuan has been perceptive since childhood, and she sensed a hint of danger in the aura.
Turning her head, she saw Li Sui standing behind her with his hands behind his back, looking at her with a half-smile.
That scene was even more terrifying than a horror movie.
At least Zhong Mingjuan's heart skipped a beat.
"You scared me to death!" Zhong Mingjuan shuddered and then accused him first: "Why didn't you say anything when you came over?"
"You dare to talk bad about me after I've made a sound?" Li Sui stepped forward, looking at Zhong Mingjuan with amusement: "Juanzi, what inside information do you have that I don't know about? Tell me about it."
"What bad things are you saying? Who would dare say bad things about you? There's no such thing. We're just chatting casually."
Zhong Mingjuan's lips twitched.
The women didn't dare to continue the discussion with Zhong Mingjuan and quickly lowered their heads to flee the scene.
"Hey, hey, don't go!"
They're all just a bunch of gossipers, how can they be so disloyal!
Seeing Li Sui standing there calmly, Zhong Mingjuan sighed: "It's nothing, we...we don't mean to be suspicious. Why didn't you see these relatives when you were poor? Now that you're rich, why are a bunch of poor relatives coming to beg for your money?"
Li Sui: “…”
So this is how the members of the Demonic Cult are portrayed behind the scenes.
That makes sense, they couldn't think of any other way.
Now that Li Sui is rich, does he think the Demonic Cult is just a bunch of poor relatives who come to freeload?
"That's not true. Most of them aren't actually my relatives."
"what?"
Zhong Mingjuan was shocked to hear this, then smiled knowingly: "I knew it! How could your family have so many random relatives? These are all your mother's friends?"
"No, not exactly," Li Sui said with a smile. "I bought these from illegal coal mines."
Zhong Mingjuan: “…”
What nonsense are you spouting!
Knowing that Li Sui wouldn't tell her the truth, Zhong Mingjuan haughtily snorted and left.
He tried to cover up his gossip about Li Sui behind his back.
Li Sui didn't argue with her any further. Anyway, ever since people from the Demonic Sect started coming into her family, the gossip in the neighborhood had never stopped.
She can't control others.
After Li Sui finished her work, Guan Yuyuan, who was recording a variety show, also ushered in the first episode of this competition program.
Since the results of her competition with Mana a few days ago were announced, and Mana suffered a crushing defeat, the production team was forced to temporarily change the competition format.
The scores of ordinary people and celebrities are still calculated together, but unlike before, a third party is no longer involved to disrupt the process.
If two teams have the same score, such as Guan Yuyuan and Mana both getting a perfect score of 10 in archery, the guests can increase the difficulty of the competition if they agree.
In other words, even if Zhou Jiao performs poorly, she won't get good results, but she can at least secure half of her chances thanks to the guests.
Furthermore, the program's grand prize was divided into two parts. This is the most important point.
This was already a concession made by the production team, and Zhou Jiao knew that it was unrealistic to rely solely on Guan Yuyuan's coattails.
Now that she knows how amazing Guan Yuyuan is, she quickly started practicing hard herself.
Guan Yu hopes to take first place, and archery is easy to score. As long as she doesn't fall too far behind, she might actually have a chance to win.
Although this is only the first episode of the show.
Zhou Jiao's hands have been blistered from practicing these past few days.
Since Guan Yuyuan defeated Mana, she has stopped practicing and rarely appears on camera. Instead, her assistant, Zhou Jiao, takes her around to eat delicious food.
It didn't appear until the day of the final match.
Mana was devastated after losing the match that day, and she couldn't accept it even after thinking about it for several days.
Even after learning that Guan Yuyuan had never participated in any archery competitions, she still got carried away and asked the production team to increase the difficulty.
If she and Guan Yuyuan both get the same score, since the 10-meter target poses no challenge for them, they could compete for ages and still not get different results.
She wanted to go directly to the National Archery Centre in Pulau Guam to compete against Guan Yuyuan in archery targets that are only used in the Olympics.
One game decides the winner.
This extra training will not affect the total score. For example, the maximum number of attempts at the 10-meter target is 100 rings.
If Guan Yu wins, it's a perfect score of 100.
If Mana loses, one ring is deducted from her total score to determine the winner.
It will not affect other people's overall scores.
Of course, if there are others who perform equally well, they can also join in and compete with them.
Everyone knows they're cannon fodder in this episode, so they simply let Mana and Guan Yuyuan compete against each other.
Guan Yuyuan agreed immediately.
It's just a target at seventy meters!
Mana was severely reprimanded by Leila: "Mana, you're too carried away. This difficulty level is extremely unreasonable. You're a professional Olympic athlete, while she's just an amateur. Have you considered your international impact after the show airs?"
Mana was still unconvinced: "She's not an amateur at all. Would you really believe that if it were you?"
"But she has never participated in any public archery competition. She's a complete amateur. You're just unlucky to have run into her. Have you thought about what would happen if you lost? Your reputation would plummet if the show aired!"
Originally, she brought Mana on the show only to help Mana increase her fame and smoothly enter the entertainment industry.
If Mana loses to an ordinary person on the show, not only will Mana be affected, but her reputation will also be questioned.
Mana shook her head again: "I won't lose. That's a 70-meter professional target. Is she some kind of genius? If she's like that, why doesn't her country let her participate in the Olympics directly?"
Leila: "She may not be a genius, but she might be able to beat you this time. If you think you can handle the consequences of losing the match, then stick with it!"
Mana still didn't want to give up.
She just wanted to prove that she wouldn't lose.
Zhou Jiao was a little worried after learning that there would be a tiebreaker. At this moment, she was so arrogant that she thought Guan Yuyuan might lose, instead of questioning how an amateur could beat an Olympic athlete.
Are you afraid you'll lose?
Guan Yuyuan shook her head: "Probably not."
Zhou Jiao sighed: "She's an Olympic athlete, yet she wants to compete with you in shooting professional targets. She's simply insane."
Guan Yuyuan didn't care: "So she has to bear the consequences herself."
If she wants to use a lower-dimensional attack, then I can do it too!
