2. Miss, who are you?_2

"Come on, let's welcome the next pair, so what kind of score will they bring? Welcome Yilin and Tang Shu!"

Tang Shu nodded to the audience and got up to the game spot, her eyes glancing at the prompt on the board that read "Playing the lute to a cow," before she picked up the brush and began to draw.

Throughout the entire process, she hardly showed any other expression.

Backstage, Director Zhang glanced over and chuckled, "Give Tang Shu a close-up camera."

This left even the photographers on scene hesitating for a moment, "Director, this star doesn't have much of a variety show vibe..."

"That's exactly why she gets the camera, what a waste of words!"

"Yes, giving it now!"

The next moment, a close-up shot was pulled to Tang Shu's face, her fair and delicate face magnified several times yet flawlessly beautiful, her brows and eyes picture-perfect, with a seriousness that made everyone breath a cold sigh unwittingly.

[This beauty is out of this world!]

[What a pity she's just a third female lead, and the character is... sigh——]

Before long, Tang Shu lifted her drawing board, revealing a lifelike drawing to everyone's eyes. With just a few simple strokes, she had outlined a celestial beauty playing the lute, with a robust old yellow ox in front of her.

The beauty in the painting seemed to be transcendent, with a few casually drawn strokes around her that sketched out flowers, grass, and trees, creating a beautiful artistic conception.

Pan Yang was stunned, and then burst into admiration as if waking from a dream.

"Wow, friends, isn't Tang Shu's painting amazing?"

"Amazing, it's fantastic!"

"This style is unparalleled!"

Across from her, Yilin, with a stroke of inspiration, exclaimed the idiom loudly, "Playing the lute to a cow!"

Following that, an effortlessly beautiful painting and a seemingly divine guess quickly scored them eight points.

"A frog in a well!"

"Deceiving oneself!"

"..."

Three minutes passed, and this underdog duo stunned the crowd.

[My goodness, is this newcomer so in sync with our brother? I don't believe it, I refuse to!]

[Why do I feel like they're a perfect match? Is something wrong with me?]

[Brother is Mu Ziwei's, Tang Shu you keep away!]

Pan Yang immediately made a relieved gesture, "Alright, alright, the three minutes are finally up. If this goes on, I fear I can't take it anymore. The backstage staff are already worried about not having enough prompt cards."

This immediately sparked a round of laughter at the venue.

"Please, could you two switch places? Staff, please prepare some more prompt words, thank you!"

Of course, this was a joke meant to highlight their compatibility, and as expected, the audience burst into laughter once again.

After they switched places, Yilin took a look at the screen that displayed the characters "Mending the pen after the sheep are lost" and his eyes immediately sparkled with inspiration.

You could see him picking up the brush and frantically painting on the paper, with such smooth and vigorous strokes that the audience became excited along with him.

[It's over, it's over, the team with my goddess is going to be overtaken.]

[Just looking at Yilin's confidence, you can tell he's got a clear plan, and with Tang Shu's clear grasp on idioms, this pair is simply an explosive combination.]

[This duo scores way too easily.]

As soon as the audience's voices faded, Yilin excitedly lifted his drawing board, revealing a painting with a large circle containing countless smaller circles, and on the very left of the large circle, two small circles were intensely bonded together.

All the guests and the host: "???"

Audience: "!!!"

Staring at the abstract painting in front of her, Tang Shu was utterly confused, "...can this pass?"

[Hahahahahahaha~~xswl~~]

[Tang Shu: What's this, what's this? You call this 'mending the fold after the sheep have been lost'???]

[Sorry, I just laughed like a pig snorting. Zhang Yilin, what's going on with you? Did you paint with your feet!?]

[Damn it's so abstract, even the painting master Tang Shu can't save it, hhhh~~]

[If you didn't know better, you'd think this is a hen constantly laying eggs!]

Zhang Yilin was on the verge of tears, left with no choice but to flip over the "mending the fold after the sheep have been lost" painting to proceed with the next idiom guessing challenge.

However...

"...Pass."

"Pass."

"Hmm... Pass."

"..."

Tang Shu failed to guess a single idiom among the seven or eight presented, her delicate little face going from trying desperately to guessing, to the twitching of her lips, and then to a completely expressionless state—all within the span of merely three minutes.

The host and guests on stage burst into laughter, as did the audience below, and even the director and staff controlling the show backstage trembled with laughter.

[Tang Shu: I feel so wronged, really!]

[How is Tang Shu's expression inexplicably kind of cute? hhhhhh~~~]

[Tang Shu: I have a tacit understanding with Zhang Yilin, but Zhang Yilin doesn't have it with me, can you believe that?!]

[Who would have thought, success by Yilin and failure by Yilin!]

Director Zhang, controlling the show backstage, paused for a moment, then raised his eyebrows slightly at the unexpected sight of Tang Shu on the video.

"Did I misjudge?"

"Dire-dire-director, should we switch it up?"

"No need, keep it on Tang Shu."

Although the turn of events was unexpected for him, the ratings for this segment were solid, and that was what mattered most.

At the end of the game, to everyone's amazement, the duo of Tang Shu lost by eight points to Sun Zhi and Kong Yuanyuan who scored twelve, an incredible comeback that left the audience and guests with tears in their eyes from laughter.

"Alright, let's move on to the next game, 'Climbing to the Summit.' In this game, there is no particular order, please have all four guests rush forward together, and whoever reaches the top first wins."

'Climbing to the Summit' is a 4-meter-high wall, the difficulty lies in the strong arm strength needed for climbing, which can easily cause guests to fall, so each person is fitted with protective gear around their waist.

Zhang Yilin had been down due to his mistake in the previous game but now seeing this game immediately felt a surge of confidence, aiming to redeem his image in front of the audience.

"This game really tests your physical strength, I'll rush forward when it starts, and you just block the others for me down here!"

Possibly intending to boost his own courage, he nearly shouted the words, but Tang Shu beside him gave him a look that said it all, which was just captured by the camera.

[Hahahah~~~Oh my god, what are you doing, how can you shout out the strategy!]

[There goes that look again! Tang Shu: How did I end up with such a pig for a teammate?]

[Bro, what's wrong with you, you are supposed to be a male god, why are you emanating such a fool's aura?]

As the game started, Zhang Yilin rushed up with unbelievable speed, the other two followed closely behind, and only Tang Shu stood still, her gaze still indifferent.
