Chapter 1027: Chapter 708: Showing Off Love [11] All Major Forums Crash, The Production Team Whimpers_3
[!!! I love this!]
[Damn, a wandering-celebrity-couple show! Suddenly this got interesting!]
[Haha I refuse to believe Nora Scott still has any tricks left in Xiangel City! (Also I kinda hope she slaps me in the face hard, I’m waiting for her plot twist.)]
[What do I do, I’m already addicted to Nora’s protagonist halo. Please slap the production team for me! I want to see you fight back and smack them in the face! Let them know their childish rules can’t hold you down!]
...
"Oh."
Nora replied, calm as a still lake.
She lifted her eyelids and spoke lazily, "Then the friend I brought—"
"He can’t bring a phone or cash either." The director cut her off on the spot.
Nora just shrugged.
[Nora actually brought a friend?]
[Don’t tell me she wants to use this to hype up some newbie from Mr. Langley’s company?]
[If that’s the case the hype level just tanked.]
[I’m begging you, please no, random nobodies get lost!]
...
Just as netizens were going wild guessing, the camera started shaking, followed the guests out the door, and then a tall, slender figure appeared in the video—
The man was bundled up, hoodie on, talking to a staff member.
Even from the side, it was enough to send the livestream into a frenzy.
[Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I’m dead!]
[Died on the spot!]
[Got my face slapped again! But this kind of face slap, please, more!!!]
[My actor Chapman who "absolutely never does variety shows"! I’m on my knees! Nora you’re the GOAT!]
...
While viewers on the other side of the livestream were freaking out, breaking down, and screaming—
Henry Chapman turned around, that handsome, youthful face now facing the camera. He was frowning slightly, looking a bit displeased.
"They want to take my phone and cash." Henry frowned at Nora.
"Oh." Nora said lightly, "Their rules."
"..."
Henry’s face screamed, "How are you this useless?"
Nora: "..." I must have owed you in a past life to bring you out.
"No." Henry’s voice was calm and naturally on the cold side, but his words left no room for argument. "I have to video call Rose later."
[My actor Chapman is officially confirmed as a cat slave.]
[Production team, if you dare take my brother’s phone I’ll call in an airstrike on you right now!]
[Chapman is so cute I’m bleeding out of my face! To witness this in my lifetime ahhhh!]
...
Henry had this whole "try taking my phone and I walk off right now" vibe going on, and besides, he hadn’t signed on or taken any money from the show. The production team was still counting on him to add another wave of hype to the program, so they compromised with zero dignity. Everything they’d just told the three couples basically turned into hot air.
Nora: "..."
Fuck, she’s the one who’s gone soft.
She actually listened to the show’s rules.
[Production team, can you grow a spine? You dared talk rules in front of Fairy Nora, why are you suddenly so scared in front of actor Chapman?!]
[Okay, I’m convinced he didn’t sign a contract with them. This is my Professional·Chapman we’re talking about—if he’d signed, he’d never defy the production team, haha.]
["Reckless" Movie King Chapman. I’m into it.]
[Why is Chapman’s cute-and-cool aura so different from the tough guy image I had in my head?]
[So Henry Chapman is actually this adorable in real life? I’m in love, I’m in love.]
...
The three couples walked out of the hotel in staggered groups.
Nora Scott, Pedro Langley, and Henry Chapman were grouped together, and surprisingly, netizens had zero complaints.
Given Henry’s massive fanbase, plus all the casual fans he’d accumulated, everyone felt his appearance was a pleasant surprise, and accepted this human lightbulb in one second flat.
On the way out of the hotel, Pedro told Henry about the "no transportation" situation.
At the same time, the production team stressed that, to obey the program rules, Henry wasn’t allowed to help.
Henry blurted out, "Then I’ll just go there first and wait for you guys."
Pedro + Nora: "..."
What kind of sworn brother is this, might as well slaughter him early.
"So, what are we taking?" Nora flexed her wrist a bit and glanced at the sunlight spilling outside.
Henry shot her a sideways look. "You gonna hitchhike with your face?"
Nora chuckled. "How about we sell your beauty instead?"
"What, mine’s not good enough?" Pedro chimed in gloomily.
Henry and Nora turned their heads in unison and stared at him in silence.
[I’m dying, this is killing me. Mr. Langley, you’re someone who lives off talent, don’t get hung up on this!]
[Mr. Langley: Sorry, I accidentally went green-tea mode again.]
[Do they always talk like this? Damn, each one has a sharper tongue than the last.]
[I wanna know how Nora’s gonna get a ride. With those three, I’m pretty sure they can only rely on their looks.]
...
"Let’s go." Nora tugged the brim of her wide hat down to shade her brows and eyes, and said lazily, "It’s not far, I’ll take you guys over."
Pedro knew she had a way, so he put on the attitude of a bandit chief’s spoiled spouse. "Anything under ten million, I’m not getting in."
Nora glared at him. "Keep dreaming."
Then Henry decided to add fuel to the fire. "I only need a million-yuan car."
"..." Nora gave the two of them a wordless look and ground her teeth lightly. "How about I steal you two a shared bike?"
Henry: "I can call a cab and leave any time."
Pedro: "I seem to remember I’ve got a branch office here."
Nora: "..." I spoil them too much!
But faced with these two and their childish "flexing," Nora could only grit her teeth and bear it.
She waved a hand at them, signaling them to follow behind.
[Mr. Langley has a branch in Xiangel City too? Truly a CEO in every sense of the word!]
[The production team must be under insane pressure; the cheats on this season’s guests are way too broken.]
[Laugh-cry. So these three really are just here to play around, huh?]
[Curious how Nora’s gonna get transportation. She looks so confident though.]
...
Nora led Pedro and Henry on a ten-minute walk or so.
They came to a commercial street, turned left and right a few times, and found a shop that specialized in car modifications.
As soon as she walked in—
"Grandma! What brings you here?!"
Someone inside shouted.
