The man with the headband and the young girl froze instantly, but before they could react, the strange voice continued:
【He’s truly rotten, literally rotten. One look at it would make you vomit for three days, ugh!】 You Xiaoxia couldn’t help but gag as she spoke.
【Caiflower Man isn’t just hitting on you; he’s also trying to hook up with other fans, all wealthy middle-aged female fans! His rotten cucumber was contracted while fooling around outside, ahhhh, run away! Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!】
As the inner monologue grew increasingly outrageous, the man with the headband—or rather, Caiflower Man—gradually turned pale. Without bothering to console anyone, he stormed over furiously: “Who is it? Who’s spouting nonsense? I’ll damn well…”
Qingqing, unaware that anyone with ill intentions toward You Xiaoxia would be punished, was startled and grabbed You Xiaoxia’s arm, pulling her into a run.
“Oh no, we’ve been spotted! Run!”
By the time Caiflower Man and the young girl chased them out, they only saw two figures running into the distance. Caiflower Man was suddenly filled with murderous intent but abruptly clutched his crotch, cold sweat streaming down his face. Only the young girl remained foolishly rooted to the spot.
You Xiaoxia’s arm ached from Qingqing’s tugging, but she kept twisting her head back: “No, I have to warn that girl not to fall for Caiflower Man’s tricks!”
Qingqing: “…” She already heard it, okay?!
Fine, another thing she couldn’t say aloud!
She had no choice but to turn back and shout at the dazed girl: “Stay away from Caiflower Man to keep safe!”
The girl stared back in shock.
Only after running out of the duo’s sight and reaching the vicinity of their own RV did Qingqing stop, leaning against the vehicle while panting heavily.
You Xiaoxia was exhausted too—it had been years since she last ran an 800-meter dash!
Wheezing for a moment, she remembered the main issue: “How did you also know the man with the headband is Caiflower Man?”
Qingqing: “…” Didn’t you tell me?!
She forced a dry laugh: “Ha, haha, actually, I knew all along. You know how it is—I’m in the industry. These things can’t stay hidden!”
Qingqing winked at You Xiaoxia.
You Xiaoxia instantly understood: If you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet? Since Caiflower Man frequently flirted with wealthy women, rumors were bound to spread!
After catching her breath, Qingqing grew concerned again: “I wonder if that girl will listen to the advice!”
“That’s simple!” You Xiaoxia called out to the System: 【Lao Liu, report the melon!】
【Okay, Host!】 Lao Liu was obligated to inform the host about the follow-up to the gossip, ensuring the host could fully enjoy the melon without any regrets.
【She took the advice and even kicked Caiflower Man. He’s howling in pain while clutching his crotch. The girl has already left!】
You Xiaoxia told Qingqing: “Don’t worry, she listened.”
Having already overheard the conversation, Qingqing replied: “Mmhmm, that’s good!”
【Sigh, if only there were visuals!】 You Xiaoxia really wanted to see how the girl kicked him in the balls!
System: 【That’s not difficult. Just save up some Guazi to buy a Player!】
You Xiaoxia checked and saw that a Player had appeared in the system interface—though it was quite expensive, costing 200 Guazi!
The 500 Guazi she had accumulated earlier had been exchanged yesterday for 300 days of melon-eating time, leaving her with only about 200 now… Hey, her Guazi had increased again!
It must have been from the gossip about Wu Tao and Caiflower Man just now! When she was consuming the melons, there were quite a few people in the dressing room!
But when she was munching on melons in the dressing room, the others probably didn’t know, right? Could they still become her Guazi?
【Lao Liu!】
The System grinned mischievously: 【As long as you’re munching on melons, everyone present becomes your Guazi. As for the rest, we don’t need to worry—that’s just how big data calculates it!】
【Alright!】 You Xiaoxia didn’t dwell on it. As long as she could collect Guazi, that was all that mattered!
As for the Player, You Xiaoxia hadn’t bought one yet. Growing up in an orphanage, she had no one to rely on and was used to preparing her own safety net. Only with reserves on hand could she feel at ease!
She could always buy it later when there were even more explosive melons to uncover!
After resting in the RV for a while, Qingqing and You Xiaoxia headed to the filming set.
Song Linlang was already in makeup, acting out a scene with the male lead. Curious, You Xiaoxia moved closer and watched with great interest.
Wu Tao, ever perceptive, personally brought over a chair: “Sis, have a seat while you watch.”
You Xiaoxia glanced at him and plopped down.
Wu Tao quickly offered milk tea and snacks: “Sis, enjoy these while you watch.”
You Xiaoxia scanned the offerings—cheese with double cream foam, her favorite flavor. But she still felt the need to be polite on the surface: “Oh, this is too much!”
Wu Tao immediately shoved the milk tea into her hands: “It’s nothing, just a cup of milk tea. Sis, as long as you’re on set, I’ll cover your milk tea and snacks from now on!”
“Tsk tsk, look, I didn’t even want to drink it, but your hospitality is just too hard to refuse!” You Xiaoxia inserted the straw and took a satisfying sip.
Wu Tao: “…” Cursing you in my mind.
You Xiaoxia turned her head and noticed Wu Tao covering his mouth: “What’s wrong? Bad breath? Eww… you better stay away from me!”
Wu Tao released his mouth, which had suddenly hurt but now didn’t, and fearing a stomachache, he didn’t even dare to think ill of her.
He quickly explained: “No, Sis, I don’t have bad breath. If you don’t believe me, take a whiff!”
You Xiaoxia recoiled in disgust: “Are you even being polite?!”
Who goes around asking people to smell their breath right after meeting them?!
Wu Tao didn’t mind the rejection. In front of You Xiaoxia, he had long lost all dignity and pride! She even knew about his most private matters—what was there left to fuss about!
But he couldn’t be the only one whose melons were being munched. With so many people on set, and plenty of notable celebrities, it would only be fair if everyone had at least one melon exposed!
Wu Tao schemed in his mind. With You Xiaoxia’s mind-reading ability being so extraordinary, if he buttered her up enough, he could follow along and munch on melons, gaining insider knowledge on many people’s secrets!
Just as Wu Tao was thinking about how to steer the conversation toward the male lead and munch on his melon, Qingqing, who had been called away to help as soon as they arrived on set, returned looking unhappy.
Qingqing was the melon buddy who’d run with her in times of danger, so You Xiaoxia quickly asked with concern: “Qingqing, what’s wrong?”
Qingqing sighed: “The coordinator wants me to go to Group B to deliver something to Teacher Huang Yuehua.”
Huang Yuehua? Never heard of him!
“You don’t want to go?” You Xiaoxia asked.
Qingqing looked at her, hesitating to speak.
Just then, Wu Tao suddenly snickered. Before You Xiaoxia could get angry, he leaned in and whispered an explanation: “Sis, you don’t know this, but Huang Yuehua appears to be a virtuous and accomplished senior artist, but his character…”
Wu Tao shook his head with a look of disdain.
You Xiaoxia looked at him curiously: “Is his character even worse than yours?”
Wu Tao was instantly choked up, fuming: “You—you’re comparing me to him! I may have climbed the ladder through underhanded means, but I only sacrificed myself. At the very least, I don’t harm others!”
Oh, I see! So Huang Yuehua harms people!
