coronation of stars

Chapter 45
He knocked on the door a few times, but no one answered. Qiao Yan had a healthy schedule, and unless there were special circumstances during filming, he should indeed be asleep at this time.Mu Ting hesitated for a while, pushed the door and found that it was unlocked, hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open, and slipped in quietly.

Unexpectedly, after entering the door, by the light of the moonlight, she found Qiao Yan sitting upright on the bed, heard him coming in, and opened her mouth to talk to him.

"Turn on the lights."

Mu Ting was a little surprised, but pressed the switch next to the door as he said.After the room was bright again, Mu Ting turned to look at Qiao Yan, and found that the other party was also looking at him deeply.

"It's so late, what are you doing here?" Qiao Yan asked.

"I brought you cold medicine, take it before going to sleep, I'm afraid you'll catch a cold." Mu Ting raised the cold medicine in his hand and walked towards Qiao Yan.During the day, they had a mission to go into the water. They may have stayed in the water for too long. Qiao Yan sneezed a little after getting out of the water. After getting out of the water, the program crew arranged for him to take a hot bath. down.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?" Mu Ting walked a few steps and found that Qiao Yan was not looking at him quite right, so he stopped to look at her.Qiao Yan looked at him for a while, then spoke slowly.

"That clue card I got before I set out this morning said there was one defector in each of the two teams," she said.

Mu Ting was stunned for a moment, and saw her face slowly change.

"You doubt me?" He asked incredulously, "I'm worried that you sent you medicine!"

"I want me not to doubt your words," Qiao Yan narrowed her eyes and said softly.

"Then can you explain why you lied to me today?"

When the program was officially broadcast, when Qiao Yan officially said the phrase "Why did you lie to me", the edited footage was immediately synchronized, rewinding a detail that was not broadcast in the previous game session.

During the diving competition between the two teams, everyone fell into the water more or less several times, and climbed up wet one by one, looking a little embarrassed.Qiao Yan sneezed a little, and when he walked out wrapped in a towel, he happened to see Mu Ting looking in the direction of the blue team with a serious expression on his face.

"What's the matter?" Qiao Yan followed Mu Ting's line of sight for a look, but found nothing unusual, and asked suspiciously.

"Huh?" Mu Ting turned his head and twitched the corner of his mouth. "It's quite tiring to ride a bicycle all the way. It's time for the blue team to apply to the director team for a change of bike."

"It's more convenient to brush your face and rub your car. It's not a violation of the rules." Qiao Yan nodded and shook her head. After answering the sentence, she wrapped her towel tightly and continued walking, "I'll tidy up first, and we'll meet later."

"Okay, I'll take a hot bath too. No matter how hot the weather is, it's still too cold under the water." Mu Ting nodded and walked towards the rest room.Qiao Yan walked unhurriedly, and was soon overtaken by Mu Ting. When Mu Ting disappeared from sight, Qiao Yan glanced around, raised her eyes to face the camera, and spoke in a low voice.

"He lied."

The camera cut back to when Qiao Yan was performing the task in the morning, and gave a close-up of Qiao Yan when he opened the note.

"Each group has a mutineer who will either help or sabotage his team at the last minute."

Mu Ting has always been a person who is used to being straightforward, and she is not too defensive in front of her. She is an excellent actress herself, and people always look a little unnatural when they say things against their will, especially those who don't often tell lies. very.

Qiao Yan was naturally aware of Mu Ting's abnormality, but he remained calm throughout the next day and did not express any opinion on this matter.Until Mu Ting came into her room at night, the two of them faced each other in silence, one was full of astonishment, the other just sat quietly, raising his hand and waving the note between his fingers.

"I don't know what kind of new task I will face tomorrow. If I want to take this so-called secret signal, tonight is the most suitable time."

Qiao Yan yawned sleepily, and shook her head to wake herself up: "It's not in vain that I've been waiting here for a long time, it's fine if you come, if you don't want to explain, go back, in fact, it's just to tell you that I'll see through Alright, Su Ping and I will be on guard against you tomorrow, and it's up to you whether or not the news spreads over there."

Mu Ting stared at her for a while, then suddenly sighed.

"Didn't you say you wanted me to explain, so you won't listen?" he asked.

Qiao Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, obviously he didn't expect Mu Ting to have something to say: "...you say it."

"At that time, I did find some anomalies of the blue team, but it was not what you thought. At that time, I felt that there were always people holding back the blue team during the game, so I observed it carefully. It really felt like this, but I couldn't figure it out. Why did he do this? Now that I read your stuff, I basically understand."

Mu Ting hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Qiao Yan: "I seem to have discovered our undercover agent in the blue team."

"In that case, you're not only suspicious of a member of the blue team, but also Su Ping?" Qiao Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Can you tell me the reason?"

"If there is a reason, it's not called speculation." Mu Ting shook his head indifferently, shrugged his shoulders and approached, opened the cold medicine under Qiao Yan's guard, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her, "Take it and hurry up Go to sleep, no one but me can remember to visit you."

He had already expressed his love for Qiao Yan in front of the media. Now that he said such words and made such actions, everyone would probably take them for granted.Qiao Yan hesitated a little, and took the water after hesitation.

"……thanks."

"You still know how to say thank you." Mu Ting snorted angrily, "I thought you would only doubt me today."

"That's different." Qiao Yan said calmly after taking the cold medicine, "You are the biggest suspect now."

"Do you believe me?" Mu Ting asked.

Qiao Yan thought for a while, but didn't answer.

The next day was still a full day of tasks, and the two teams were still equally strong. Generally speaking, the red team was getting better and won more.But for the three of them, Qiao Yan, Mu Ting, Su Ping, winning or losing is not important, but pushing the pot is important. They joked and teased each other maliciously, and the day passed quickly.

Regarding the progress of the traitors during this day, the program team hardly mentioned anything in the clips, and only inserted two vague dialogues from the red team in the middle, which made people puzzled.

In one sentence, Su Ping touched his chin with a smile, then turned to look at Qiao Yan: "What do you think?"

In another sentence, Qiao Yan lowered her eyelashes and replied with a smile: "I found it."

The final mission location is an old house with a long history in this city.

Because of the needs of the program shooting, the place was cleared for a day for the program recording. The three of Qiao Yan arrived one step earlier than the blue team, and they were the first to find clues everywhere after entering the house.

At this time, both teams already know the fact that there is a traitor in their team, and the final hurdle has been reached, and the traitor who has been hiding his identity has also come to the fore.The three members of the red team tacitly chose to split up when they entered the old house. After Qiao Yan searched the old house for a while, he luckily found a piece of silk cloth.

On the silk cloth is the last reminder of the secret recipe, a poem that is very unfamiliar to the eye, the contrast between flat and flat is not very neat, but it feels a little mysterious.Qiao Yan lowered her head, observed carefully for a while, and soon discovered that each line of the poem was a riddle, typed a single word, and together it was probably the last hiding place of the secret recipe.She looked at the silk cloth and kept gesticulating on the ground with her hands, but she didn't notice anyone approaching silently behind her.

Until the man quickly covered her mouth with his hand, wiped a finger dipped in cinnabar on her neck, leaned close to her ear and spoke in a low voice.

"Feel sorry."

Qiao Yan closed her eyes and sighed slowly.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't lie to me?" she asked.

"I have no choice." Mu Ting explained, but soon felt that he should not explain, and pulled Qiao Yan to stand up, "Now you are "dead", find a place to rest for a while, the game is almost over . "

He took the silk from Qiao Yan's hand and put it away by himself, and was about to turn around and leave, but was held back by Qiao Yan.

"I'm not in a hurry to get the secret recipe. Listen to my last word to you?"

Mu Ting was a little surprised, then stood still and nodded: "Success, tell me."

"I want to tell you..." Qiao Yan looked at him, and suddenly smiled, smiling like a spring breeze, with curved eyebrows, "Don't show personal heroism in this kind of show, but trust your teammates."

Mu Ting was startled, but before he realized what she meant, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck.

He slowly raised his hand and wiped it on his neck. When he saw the red mark on his hand, he turned his head to look. Gu Zhaoming stood behind him and politely made an apologetic gesture.

"The identity is here, I can't help myself, I'm sorry."

"Oh, it's okay." Mu Ting glanced at him, replied him briefly, and stopped looking at him.Qiao Yan Shiran took back the silk she found from Mu Ting, raised her hand and threw it to Gu Zhaoming.

"The secret recipe is in a vase in the East Wing. Brother Gu, thank you for your hard work."

Gu Zhaoming took the silk and nodded to her to express his understanding, then hurried to the final mission location.Mu Ting and Qiao Yan stood on the spot and stared at each other for a while, then Mu Ting suddenly asked her.

"Didn't you say you decided to believe me?"

When he said this, he still had a sense of grievance. The villain could still be so confident when he complained first. Qiao Yan was amazed at Mu Ting's thick skin. He blinked and raised half of his willow eyebrows slantingly.

"Who told you to lie to me first." The smile on the half of her lips was wanton and bright, she put her hand on her neck, and wiped her neck neatly, "Kill without mercy."

There is almost no suspense for Gu Zhaoming to get the final secret recipe.

Su Ping relied on his strong psychological quality to open his eyes and talk nonsense, and told the blue team that he was the lurker. After two days and a night, he finally found the organization, and the three went hand in hand to find the members of the red team. Find one to kill one, find two to kill a pair.

Lin Chengxiao and Mu Xueqing thought about it and felt that they could always handle Su Ping alone, and there was nothing wrong with having multiple helpers. In addition, the clues were indeed still uncertain, so the three of them started to act together.

But they never expected that Su Ping had no intention of killing them at all, and only took on the task of holding them back, so he took them to visit this old house with a relaxed and happy mind. The staff who followed the filming were all stunned.

When Gu Zhaoming came back with the secret recipe and the result of the red team's victory, the program was officially recorded to the end.There is no limit to where the guests can move, and they are now wandering around in the camera without restraint.In the post-production, this kind of scene is usually used to play the ending BGM and scroll the production team list. Everyone's face is a little relaxed and tired, only Mu Ting is still standing there without moving.
