Chapter 217: Chapter 217 Recitation
Ning Youran frowned, feeling a bit embarrassed as she spoke, “Well, if you ask me to memorize a Baidu Baike entry for a goddess or god, I could recite it without missing a single word. But if you ask me to memorize a book, I’d be lucky to get a single word right.”
Rong Shaofeng: …
“How do you usually memorize your scripts then?” Rong Shaofeng asked.
“With scripts, it all depends on who I’m acting with. For example, last time I worked with a god and goddess, I almost got it in one go. I could recite it backwards after just one reading. When you’re acting with gods and goddesses, you can’t afford to mess up and drag everyone down, right?” Ning Youran said. “However, the time before last, none of my co-actors were good-looking, and I just didn’t memorize the script at all.”
Rong Shaofeng: …
This girl joined the entertainment industry just to chase stars, didn’t she?
It seems I have to find a way to unleash this girl’s potential. Otherwise, as my sister said, we might end up living in a cave.
Ning Youran was actually somewhat worried, “Rong Shaofeng, if I can’t memorize it and we end up last, does that really mean we have to live in that broken house on the mountainside? If that’s the case, won’t I be too far away from the god and goddess?”
Upon hearing this, Rong Shaofeng immediately spread out the resort map on the table. He then took a pen and marked five residences, labelling them from best to worst with numbers one to five.
He then pulled Ning Youran over to look, “See, this is the best one, number 1. With Luo Chen entering the fray, getting this number 1 will definitely not be a problem. After number 1, the best is number 2, followed by number 3, and then numbers 4 and 5. Number 2 is closest to number 1. Your god and goddess will definitely be staying in number 1, so for the sake of star-chasing, for the sake of shipping the couple, where should we stay?”
“Number 2! The god and goddess stay at number 1, we stay at number 2, so we can closely observe the god and goddess and ship the couple up close! Plus, we can visit often, which is just perfect!” Ning Youran said excitedly.
“Correct answer, but securing residence number 2 is not going to be easy; you need to beat the other three teams by memorization! Are you confident?” Rong Shaofeng asked.
“Confidence or not, for the god and goddess, for the sake of being close to ship the couple, I will give a hundred percent effort. Long live the CP!” Ning Youran said, clenching her fists as if she was pumped up on chicken blood.
The game soon began. Just as Rong Shaofeng predicted, Ji Luochen recited an entire page of the book perfectly.
The sight stunned everyone.
The other three teams each had a male contestant recite.
Xu Han managed to recite quite a lot, roughly two-thirds, which was already quite impressive.
Han Ming recited just over half, and Xiang Tan managed a bit less than half.
Finally, it was Ning Youran’s team’s turn, the most unique team since they were the only one with a female contestant.
Han Ming looked at Rong Shaofeng with a hint of disdain, waiting to watch their farce.
Before she went on stage, Rong Shaofeng encouraged Ning Youran, “For the sake of the god and goddess, for the CP, and to prevent Xu Han, who wants to break them up, from getting close to the god and goddess by staying in number 2, you know what you have to do, right?”
“I know!” Ning Youran tightened her fists, “My objective is to surpass Xu Han and stop him from breaking up my CP. Whoever tries to break my CP, I’ll break his house!”
After Ning Youran went up, she started selecting words and then began to recite.
Even though she stumbled here and there, she didn’t stop and managed to surpass two-thirds, reaching five-sixths before she couldn’t go on.
Yet she successfully outdid Xu Han.
