Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!

Chapter 111: Chapter 111: From now on, Zhao Daniu is my new brother!

The door to the hall was pushed open a crack, and the cameraman’s head peeked in.

“Miss Jiang, since you’re not sleeping, Director Sun wants all the guests to gather outside the production shed at 12:30 AM.”

“I knew it, I was wondering why today’s live broadcast hasn’t ended yet. So Director Sun is up to something.”

“I’m starting to feel sympathy for the guests—they have to be hassled even in the middle of the night.”

“It seems like, apart from Jiang Li and He Yun, everyone else is asleep. Is Director Sun planning to wake them up one by one?”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li didn’t ask for a reason, but just nodded and went back to his room to change his clothes.

Here, the staff were pondering how to wake up Jiang Yan when suddenly Jiang Li came back, holding a string, which was tied to a plump hen.

“Jiang Yan has a bad temper when he wakes up; to spare you from his wrath, better use this.”

The staff’s looks towards Jiang Li changed instantly.

Are there really sisters who treat their own brothers this ruthlessly in the world?

Jiang Yan had a dream.

In the dream, he was sitting in a luxurious box at the Oscars, surrounded by indulgence.

Su Yinwan, blushing, was snuggled in his arms.

Huo Ziyang, full of remorse, was kneeling at his feet.

Shang Shaojing, beside him, was nodding and bowing his head to him.

Just as he was grinning and about to gulp down some fine wine, the box’s door was suddenly kicked open, and Jiang Li, dressed in black and backlit, walked in with a mocking smile on his face.

“Jiang Yan, look at yourself now. How are you fit to be my brother? From now on, you’re kicked out of the Jiang Family, and from now on, Zhao Daniu is my new brother!”

Having said that, she walked up to him and slapped him across the face.

But it remarkably didn’t hurt.

Then another slap landed on his face, followed by Jiang Li frantically slapping his face like she’d gone mad.

It wasn’t until Jiang Yan gradually woke from his groggy state.

Hiss—why had he had such a dream?

But since it was a dream, why did his face actually feel a bit painful?

It also felt like someone really was slapping him, as wind whooshed by his ear.

Jiang Yan struggled to open his eyes a crack, perfectly aligning with the small, mung-bean-sized eyes of a chicken.

Startled, the hen flapped its wings faster on his face and even screamed as it jumped onto his face.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Now it was Jiang Yan’s turn to scream.

He suddenly threw off the covers and jumped up, pressing his entire body against the wall, his hand shakily pointing at the chicken.

“You, you, you, who let you in?!”

The next second, he saw Jiang Li sitting casually in the middle of the hall, leisurely drinking from a thermos in her hand.

He immediately found the real culprit.

“Damn, Jiang Li, are you out of your mind? Why aren’t you sleeping and instead sitting here trying to scare me like a ghost?!”

The last time he was scared by her was during his most excited moment.

This time it was in a dream.

If this continues, he might end up despising her face someday!

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I’m really going to die laughing.”

“Please, Jiang Yan, stop causing trouble; it’s really painful to hold back laughter in bed in the middle of the night.”

“My feet just started cramping from laughing.”

“Did the young master just have a wonderful dream? Before the chicken attack, his mouth was grinning so widely.”

Jiang Li slowly rose, his beautiful eyes turning towards him languidly.

“It’s now midnight fifteen, you woke up just in time, we can totally make it to the shed by half past twelve, let’s get moving.”

Jiang Yan: ???

Is he still dreaming?

Is this really meant to be a variety show?

Since when do variety shows wake people up in the middle of the night to gather?!

At half past midnight, six celebrities gathered in front of the producer’s shed.

Apart from He Yun and Jiang Li, who hadn’t slept, the others all looked rather aggrieved.

Qi Tianyu was also alright, after all, he was used to staying up late to catch up on schoolwork.

But the “pretentious” trio who had just fallen asleep before being woken up were not having such an easy time.

Wen Jiaojiao stood at the very front with her arms crossed, looking as if she was about to erupt like a volcano any second.

Shu Yan was still very concerned about her makeup-free face, not only wearing sunglasses but also not skimping on a mask and a hat.

She was almost instantly criticized by the audience.

Shu Yan didn’t think there was anything wrong and quietly slid her sunglasses down a bit, looking towards Jiang Yan with an unhappy face.

“Young Master Jiang, I heard you got hurt in the afternoon, are you alright? I have some medicine; do you want to apply some?”

“Help, this woman is at it again.”

“Tsks, Shu Yan still hasn’t given up on Jiang Yan, but then again, with the young master being so handsome and from a wealthy family, few girls can resist the temptation.”

Jiang Yan glanced at her nonchalantly, hands tucked into his trouser pockets, full of disdain, “No need, keep it for yourself.”

Shu Yan sighed sadly, “The crew is really too much, to still make you come over in the middle of the night after you got injured, your face got all red, nearly disfigured, right?”

Jiang Yan, reminded of some bad memories: “…”

“Hahahaha I’m dying of laughter, wasn’t Young Master Jiang’s red face from falling, but from being slapped by an old hen?”

“I really can’t stop laughing, I seriously suspect Shu Yan is doing this on purpose, always bringing up the most awkward topics.”

“Young Master even sneaked a peek at Jiang Li, is he pining for this sister hahaha.”

The shed was then opened slightly, and Director Sun, wrapped in pajamas, walked out leisurely.

“Ah, seeing everyone so punctual, I’m truly relieved.”

Wen Jiaojiao yawned deeply, her face almost drooping to the ground, “Director Sun, isn’t this too torturous, waking us up just after we fell asleep, don’t tell me you’re going to make us work in the middle of the night?”

“How could that be?” Director Sun said, “Am I that heartless?”

Wen Jiaojiao: “…..”

“Alright, alright, let’s not waste time. I’ll get straight to the point,” Director Sun cleared his throat and said, “Last night, one of you drew the role of the ‘guard’ in the King’s Game, and today, this person successfully guarded their king and helped their king, so you need to choose who was today’s king and guess the right guard to earn 5 good points. Otherwise, that guard will get 5 good points.”

Director Sun then explained the rules of the King’s Game.

“On the first day, I’ll give you a hint; today’s guard role is—Jiang Li!”

Five people looked at each other incredulously, their eyes all turning towards Jiang Li.

Jiang Li still didn’t react much, he stood still, not moving, and didn’t exchange glances with them.

Director Sun raised his hand.

“Okay, anyone who thinks they’re the king, step forward now!”

As soon as he finished speaking, five people stepped forward together.

Director Sun: ?
