"And, provided you don't die, guarantee the live stream will continue!"

Zhou Tao's last words were like heavy lead balls, crashing down on Su Qinghuan's heart.

"Director Zhou... I... I understand." Her voice was a little dry, even with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor. "But... the situation here is too complicated. I... I'm afraid I can't control it."

She was speaking from the heart.

In Wujia Village, in front of Wu You, she felt like a piece of duckweed, drifting with the tide, with no ability to control the situation at all.

She had to be extremely careful with her every move, as if walking on thin ice.

To her shame, she, a grown woman, felt completely powerless against Wu You.

"You don't need to control! Who the hell gave you the right to control?!" Zhou Tao roared again on the other end of the phone, his voice laced with a frustrated urgency. "What you need to do now isn't control, it's obedience! It's recording!"

"Just think of yourself as an eye! A heartless camera! Film whatever that young master tells you to film! If he tells you to go east, you absolutely cannot go west! Do whatever he tells you to do! Do you understand?"

"Your task is to broadcast everything you see, exactly as it is!"

Zhou Tao's roar jolted Su Qinghuan awake.

Yes, she doesn't need any hosting skills or stage presence right now.

She only needs to be a "tool".

A tool chosen by Wu You to showcase the power of Wu Family Village to the world.

Having figured this out, Su Qinghuan felt calmer.

Since we can't control it, we should give up on controlling it completely.

"Director Zhou, don't worry." Her voice regained its composure. "I will definitely complete the mission."

"Good! Good! Good!" Zhou Tao said "good" three times in a row, his excitement barely concealed. "Qinghuan, remember, you're not fighting alone now. The entire station, and even higher levels, are your solid support! Stay calm! You must stay calm!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Qinghuan let out a long breath, feeling as if she had just fought a battle and was completely exhausted.

She turned around and saw Lao Wang and Xiao Li looking at her nervously.

They had clearly heard Zhou Tao's roar on the phone, and their expressions became extremely serious.

The relaxation and joy I felt just moments ago from moving into the luxury villa have vanished completely.

Instead, there is a heavy sense of mission and a fear of the unknown.

"Did you all hear that?" Su Qinghuan looked at them and said slowly.

The two nodded silently.

"I won't waste any more time on nonsense." Su Qinghuan's eyes became more determined than ever before. "Take out all the spare batteries and charge them, check the wiring and signals of all the devices, and format all the spare memory cards as well."

"From this moment forward, we are entering a 24-hour wartime state. No one is allowed to turn off their devices; everyone must be on standby at all times."

"Yes! Sister Qinghuan!" Old Wang and Little Li replied in unison, their voices filled with determination.

They knew that what they were about to face was the most important and dangerous challenge of their careers.

Having arranged everything, Su Qinghuan walked alone to the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the living room.

Night had completely fallen.

Outside the window, the entire Wujia Village was brightly lit. The luxurious villas scattered in the valley were all illuminated with warm lights, looking like a galaxy of stars scattered on earth from above, dazzling and eye-catching.

Deep in the valley, at the highest point, the magnificent Wu Clan Ancestral Hall remained shrouded in deep darkness.

It is like an ancient behemoth lurking in the night, silent, majestic, and exuding a chilling aura.

Wu You is right there now.

What exactly is he doing?

What secrets are hidden behind that door?

Su Qinghuan's mind was filled with countless questions.

She knew that the story of Wujia Village had only just begun. The real climax was yet to come.

Just as she was deep in thought, a soft electronic doorbell suddenly rang in the quiet villa.

Immediately afterwards, a smart control screen on the wall lit up, and a polite, electronically processed female voice came from it.

"Hello, Ms. Su."

"Dinner has been prepared for you and your team. Would you like it delivered to the restaurant, or to each of your rooms?"

The sudden sound startled Su Qinghuan.

She looked at the lit screen, hesitated for a moment, and replied, "Please deliver it to the restaurant, thank you."

"Okay, it's arranged for you. Enjoy your meal."
