Bei Shi was attracted by the fragrance and immediately moved to pick up the delicious food. She took a bite and her eyes immediately lit up. “This is so delicious!”

After saying that, Bei Shi naturally wolfed down the food.

The challenge was judged by the ability of the supporting guests to finish the food prepared by the guests.

On one side, two of the supporting guests had already eaten more than half of the food.

Bai Rong confidently pushed the food that she had prepared in front of Mu Chen. “Brother Mu Chen, please try it.”

“Okay, since Rong ‘er made it, I will definitely finish it.” Mu Chen said as he picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

As he chewed, he could not help but frown.

Mu Chen had been raised to have a picky palate since he was accustomed to all kinds of delicacies all his life, so he suddenly found the food he was eating now did not taste that good. In fact, he was unable to tolerate it.

Bai Rong saw that he was in a difficult position and immediately showed her disappointment. “Brother Mu Chen, if you don’t like it, don’t eat it. I’m fine with it.”

Mu Chen’s expression froze and he quickly coaxed, “No, I just think that it’s really too delicious. I just didn’t expect it.”

In order not to disappoint Bai Rong and not to lose to the other guests, Mu Chen silently endured the repulsion in his heart. He braced himself and continued to consume the food, that looked like it had been boiled in plain water, into his stomach.

He had not expected it to be so terrible.

It looked like Bai Rong really did not know how to cook. Fortunately, Bai Rong still had acting skills. That was enough.

Mu Chen comforted himself in his heart.

“I’m done eating!” Bei Shi wiped her mouth and exclaimed excitedly to the director.

“I’m done eating too.” Very soon, Gong Hao followed suit.

In the end, only Mu Chen was left.

Mu Chen ate slowly, while everyone waited for him.

Lang Qi said, “Young Master Mu is indeed cultured. He eats so slowly. It seems that Bai Rong’s dishes are the same as mine. Although it looks average, the taste should be very good.”

Gong Hao could not help but roll his eyes. “Little Lang Qi, don’t you know your place? I relied on my tenacious willpower to finish it.”

Lang Qi refused to admit his flaw. “Impossible! I saw you eating so quickly like you couldn’t wait to finish it.”

“Yes, I did want to finish it right away. Rather than prolonging my pain, I decided I might as well die quickly.” Gong Hao did not even give Lang Qi any face at all.

Lang Qi had been mentored by him. It was Gong Hao who had brought Lang Qi up from a little rookie to his current celebrity status.

He was like a strict elder brother, and he was merciless in his criticism.

Lang Qi felt unhappy and quickly looked at Bei Shi. “Did your food look delicious, but did not really taste good?”

Bei Shi said happily, “No, it really was delicious.”

The more Mu Chen listened to them, the more irritated he became. He thought Gong Hao was right, it was better to eat faster and die a quick death. Hence, he suddenly wolfed down his food, his expression showing a hint of malevolence.

Everyone present. “…”

Fang Mo’er glanced coldly at Mu Chen and thought to herself, this had to be true love.

In the original book, Mu Chen had always doted on Bai Rong. For Bai Rong’s sake, he had worked hard to become the leader of the Mu family and pushed Bai Rong to the top of the entertainment industry.

He was truly infatuated, and someone who was good boyfriend material.

Unfortunately, apart from the advantage of being single-minded, he had done a lot of dirty things behind the scenes.

“Congratulations, everyone. The three guests have all received one point in this segment. Now let’s go on to the next challenge location,” said the director.

Bai Rong looked rather embarrassed and said to Mu Chen, “It wasn’t good. You didn’t have to eat it.”

Mu Chen looked at her dotingly and said, “You made it, so of course I had to finish it.”

The others looked as if they had been fed with dog food and left in a hurry.

The second segment.

Everyone arrived at the entrance of a large shopping mall.

Lang Qi took the challenge card and raised his eyebrows. “It’s here, the remaining challenge segment for this program has begun.”

After he said that, everyone except Fang Mo’er had an idea.

Lang Qi had already prepared for this segment, he then read out confidently, “Please let the makeup artist do your makeup in the dressing room. After that, you’ll need to enter the supermarket and disguise yourself as an ordinary customer. The supporting guests will have to find the opponent’s guest. The guest who is found will lose points in this round.”

“At the same time, the guest who has not been found within 10 minutes will be able to walk out of the supermarket and carry on with their charade within the entire area of the shopping mall. If they are not found within half an hour, they will receive one point.

“Also, if the guest is recognized, but their supporting guests can identify someone else’s disguised guest, their own guest will also receive one point in this round.”

This round was a competition of acting skills.

Lang Qi looked eager to give it a try.

Bai Rong looked at Fang Mo’er, suddenly filled with the desire to win.

Fang Mo’er was quite interested in this segment.

Bei Shi said to her, “When the time comes, you won’t have to wear a mask anymore.. You can just use makeup techniques to change the shape of your face accordingly.”
