Chapter 745: Chapter 744: Nothing Else, Just Want to See Brother Huai Act Cute
Isn’t the last one just Guan Yu’s team assigning to Shi Yuhuai’s team?
Starting off with a bang, huh?
Mu Qiu turned to exchange a glance with Cheng Zhirang and then shared a mischievous look with Shu Ran.
Guan Yu was eager, rubbing her hands as she walked towards the clothing display area, chanting all the while.
"Brother Huai, don’t blame me. I was forced into this. It’s all these darn game rules. If you want to blame someone, blame the director and show crew."
Zhang Li and Chuchu walked alongside, turning back, holding their laughter, to see the expressions on Shi Yuhuai and Jiang Zhufeng’s faces.
Utterly dispirited.
Guan Yu reached the outfit she had her eyes on, touching the model lightly:
"This pink shorts and short-sleeved set is just perfect for Brother Huai."
Given his height, wearing it would have the same effect as a girl in hot pants.
"What do you think, Brother Huai?"
Shi Yuhuai looked resigned and unwilling to fight back, not answering her.
She then turned to Jiang Zhufeng: "What do you think, Jiang?"
Jiang Zhufeng glanced at Shi Yuhuai’s expression and cautiously said, "I think, maybe, the one next to it is more suitable."
The one on the next mannequin was a blue sequined outfit, probably for classical dance.
Guan Yu cried out and touched the collar: "This is pretty prickly. Is this a mermaid outfit? Do you want Brother Huai to play a dead mermaid?"
A motionless, expressionless dead mermaid.
Jiang Zhufeng: "... Better not then."
"Go for the deep V," Mu Qiu chimed in, "that’s much prettier. Then we can pick a hot dance for Brother Huai. Tsk tsk tsk."
The effect will definitely be explosive.
Guan Yu pondered for a moment, her peripheral vision catching Shi Yuhuai’s increasingly tense expression and clenched teeth, before returning to the pink outfit.
"I think I’ll go for the cute style. Picking a cute dance to match would be nice. I have no worldly desires, just want to see Brother Huai act cute. It would be, very spectacular."
Zhang Li and Chuchu nodded excitedly in agreement.
Now it was time to pick an outfit for Jiang Zhufeng. Chuchu asked Guan Yu about the selection method—goof around, or stick to her usual style.
Zhang Li had an idea: "We just need to choose something of a different style from Brother Huai, right? If they perform separately on the final stage, or even together despite different styles, performing badly could actually boost their final score."
"Don’t overthink it," Guan Yu earnestly picked a performance outfit for women, saying,
"Thinking too much will only hinder us later in the game. Let’s just pick something casually. Look, how about this qipao?"
Red and black with large mandala patterns embroidered on it.
They both had no objections.
Jiang Zhufeng seemed quite tempted, so Guan Yu happily made the decision.
Shi Yuhuai would wear the pink short academy-style outfit, Jiang Zhufeng the qipao.
Next up was Mu Qiu’s team assigning for Guan Yu’s team.
Just moments ago, Guan Yu was excited about the control over Shi Yuhuai’s outfit. Now she was deflated, watching Mu Qiu nervously, defensively warning her:
"You choose wisely. We were comrades battling in the same trench... Good deeds get rewarded; let it go when you can. You be good, I be good, everyone be good."
Mu Qiu smirked as she headed to the clothing area.
Guan Yu: "... Behave normally, you’re scaring me."
"Then you tell me, which one do you want?"
Guan Yu poked Chuchu and Zhang Li, saying: "Aren’t we perfect for that matching three-piece over there? A team should dress uniformly to look good, and when we look good on the final stage, our performance will be better, and you’ll get more points, right?"
"Who knows who will end up performing together? What if you get split up?"
She didn’t buy it, directly pointing at a mannequin: "I think this one’s just perfect for you."
"... You want me to wear a swan outfit?! I knew you covet my body and won’t admit it!"
Mu Qiu was speechless.
"I swear, alright? If I covet your body, Brother Huai will get first place in dancing."
Guan Yu: "Then I believe you don’t."
"Haha, you guys are so outrageous. Brother Huai will be itching for revenge!" Li Yang squatted nearby, laughing.
Mu Qiu shrugged innocently: "That’s the only believable oath."
Since Guan Yu didn’t want to wear a ballet tutu, Mu Qiu didn’t force it and pointed at another outfit.
"How about this one? A red JK uniform."
Guan Yu: "Can you not? The skirt is so short, do you want me to sit idle doing sign language throughout?"
"How about this? It’s a cute academy style. You and Brother Huai can form a duo called the Gradually Stiffening Team."
"... I’ll just strangle you!"
Lin Lian watched from the side but didn’t intervene in their "grudges." Besides Guan Yu, there were Zhang Li and Chuchu who needed outfits. He needed to look more and pick some performance outfits aligning with his and Mu Qiu’s strategic planning.
They can’t be too ugly, but he could choose something starkly different from their style, more unconventional.
For instance, choosing an icy cool style for sweet Chuchu, picking a floral surf style for Zhang Li.
Especially in the men’s section, this floral surf set should be assigned immediately, because if it’s left, the next round might see it assigned to him.
Guan Yu hadn’t assigned the floral surf to Shi Yuhuai earlier for some reason, leaving it behind. Now, every male guest besides Li Yang was at risk.
So, sorry Zhang Li.
He quietly picked two outfits but didn’t immediately announce them, choosing to wait for Mu Qiu to finish bickering with Guan Yu.
Mu Qiu eventually assigned Guan Yu an "melancholy style" dress. Long and wide-skirted, thin straps with a gradient from chest to deep blue like seaweed.
Performing a story-driven classical dance in such a dress would surely be beautiful. When she raises her long legs, it could send a wave of blue, and when the fabric falls back, it might reveal her weeping look.
Great artistic expression; though whether Guan Yu can cry on cue is another story... She might end up breakdancing in it.
Mu Qiu stopped imagining, solemnly handing the dress to her. She ignored her death stare and looked at Zhang Li and Chuchu.
"What kind of clothes do you like? Don’t worry, we’ll definitely choose something different for you!"
Zhang Li & Chuchu: ......
Then why ask at all?
Chuchu pointed to the refreshing green plaid dress in the middle, very youthful and sweet.
"Can I choose that one?"
Mu Qiu wore a gentle, sincere smile: "Of course. No, you can’t."
"..."
Lin Lian softly told her: "I picked their outfits. Want to take a look?"
"Oh? Which two sets?"
"Over there, that gem strapless..."
She glanced in the direction he pointed, first seeing the glittery gem strapless top, followed by a black high-slit skirt, paired with Martin boots.
Very sexy.
She turned back, giving Lin Lian a subtle look: "So that’s your type."
