I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 263 - 257: Points Scramble Showdown!

Hu Yun chuckled, saying that she wouldn’t compete with President Zhou, but if Xixi possessed points card, she would rob Xixi.

At the moment, there was nothing conclusive between Zhou Jinyuan and Chen Xixi; besides, Jinyuan’s family would never approve of a woman from a rural background like Chen Xixi, so she was not worried.

Furthermore, Vice President Wang was her stepfather, and the relationship between President Zhou and President Lu with Chen Xixi could end at any moment, which was not as solid as hers.

She was full of confidence!

Hu Yun looked at Zheng He and encouraged with a smile, "Then I look forward to your performance."

So, Zheng He was somewhat useful, like right now, he dared to aim for the points card in President Zhou’s hand.

With the beauty’s encouragement, Zheng He felt even more confident and courageous, "Don’t worry, I won’t let you down! I’ll take their points later and treat you to the best meal!"

"Okay."

Aside from Zheng He’s team scoring zero points, there was another team with zero points — that was Xu Mu and Qin Wei.

[This game segment is extremely unfriendly for those teams who have points!]

[Isn’t it! Save and save, and in the end, you become someone else’s meal, this is typical of the production team causing trouble!]

Just as everyone was digesting this shocking news, Qian Yue released another important announcement, "Another thing, your current partners are temporary. Whether you will want to continue partnering with each other tomorrow is not certain, so everyone must save their points wisely."

Hu Yun suddenly confirmed, "So, we still have the right to choose partners tomorrow?"

Qian Yue smiled and nodded, "Yes, dating should obviously be with someone suitable and compatible. If you feel that today’s partners are not compatible, you can choose to switch partners tomorrow.

However, changing partners also depends on whether the chosen person agrees. If they don’t agree, you might end up being grouped by force, so everyone must treat this carefully."

For the teams without points, there’s not much issue.

For those with points, if not managed well, disagreements might arise, and the dating partners might change tomorrow.

[Isn’t this just like dating, to see if people prefer to go Dutch, or hand over their salary?]

[OMG! This production team is really harsh! Every segment is a test of the couple’s relationship!]

[I think this is a test of trust between two people. If there’s no trust, then split the points; if there’s enough trust, then put all the points on one person. Of course, the result is different, and tomorrow’s romantic partners might change too.]

[Isn’t this just making everyone keep a little personal stash? So that tomorrow their partner doesn’t run off with the points and another Guest?]

Seeing no one else raised questions, Qian Yue continued, "If there are no issues, the game can start now. The first thirty minutes are for hiding, with the range indicated by signs. If you still hide outside the range after seeing the signs, all points of the violating team will be deducted! This game segment lasts for two hours total!"

As Qian Yue finished speaking, all ten guests put the small cloth bags distributed by the production team on their shoulders and walked in different directions in pairs.

Han Qianyi and Wan Chen had already agreed to partner before coming, so the distribution of points would not cause conflicts between them.

Qianyi bravely said, "I’m afraid of being robbed, let’s put all the point cards in your bag."

She was aware of her own strength; if Zheng He shamelessly pounced on her, she really wouldn’t stand a chance.

"Ok." Wan Chen put all three points cards into the small cloth bag.

"Actually, we could just hide. Staying hidden until the end also works since the total points among everyone right now is only 8. On average, our 3 points are neither too few nor too much, insufficient on top but more than enough at the bottom, enough for a stable life for now."

"Indeed, hiding seems safer," Wan Chen considered it for a bit, "Let’s hide first and see how things go, or we could wait until the end to rob the person with the most points."

"Okay!" Han Qianyi suddenly felt motivated by Wan Chen’s words, her blood boiling, almost wishing she could grab someone and rob them now.

On the other hand, Chen Xixi held two points cards, putting one into the small cloth bag carried by Zhou Jinyuan and kept one in her own bag.

She seriously said, "Let’s keep our own, so if tomorrow you want to change partners, it won’t feel uncomfortable."

"When did I say I wanted to change partners?" Zhou Jinyuan’s eyebrows raised slightly. "Or do you want to switch me out?"

Chen Xixi tilted her head, a sly smile flashed through her almond eyes, "It depends on President Zhou’s performance, I like a powerful partner."

Zhou Jinyuan glanced down at the cloth bag and then moved his gaze to Chen Xixi’s seemingly innocent but actually cunning almond eyes, he chuckled lightly, "It seems that this isn’t a points card in my hand, but a card prepared for being dumped at any moment."

"Don’t think like that, maybe we’ll work well together in what follows? Then tomorrow we can still be partners."

"Then I need to perform well."

Chen Xixi took a few quick steps and looked back, "Let’s hide for now, I have many enemies in the show, I’m worried they might gang up on us first."

In the money-saving variety show, Zheng He, Wan Chen, and Han Qianyi were all her enemies, and they had even teamed up against her before. Whether they would team up again this time, she wasn’t sure. Now with Hu Yun joining them, it felt like she was surrounded by foes from all sides.

Considering the two other unfamiliar amateur groups, one with 3 points and the other without points, the group without points would definitely try to rob them. With these calculations, there were indeed too many enemies.

Xixi didn’t want to drag Zhou Jinyuan down. "Let’s not hide together; you might have an easier time on your own."

Just at a fork in the road, Chen Xixi was ready to part ways with Zhou Jinyuan when her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Zhou Jinyuan assertively pulled her toward one of the alleys, "Let’s go together."

...

Zheng He, Hu Yun, Xu Mu, and Qin Wei, the four people without any points, hadn’t planned on hiding at all. With no points cards among them, who would find them if they hid?

Zheng He moved his wrist a bit, eagerly looking at Xu Mu and Qin Wei, "Shall we go find Chen Xixi first?"

With Xu Mu and Qin Wei, they’d have a better chance of success.

Xu Mu took the lead, walking towards the direction where Chen Xixi disappeared, "Let’s go."

Zheng He quickly followed, chatting idly, "Brother, it’s like we got to know each other through conflict."

Xu Mu just hummed, not eager to talk.

Seeing Xu Mu so cold, Zheng He didn’t bother to warm his face against the cold butt.

The four of them reached a fork in the road; Xu Mu said calmly, "Two of us per side, call if you find anything."

Meanwhile, inside a windowless warehouse.

The warehouse door was unlocked, opened by a crack, allowing a sliver of light inside. Beyond that little light, the inside of the warehouse was pitch-black...
