Chapter 148: Description

“Hmph! No, I must be first!” Wang Fengwan frowned, her face dark with determination.

At this moment, Wang Fengwan’s face and hair were covered in mud, making her look like a village girl.

Jiang Yun’s heart skipped a beat. To him, Wang Fengwan looked like a celestial beauty despite the grime.

But now was not the time to be distracted. Jiang Yun turned and dashed toward the duck cage.

Wang Fengwan sprinted forward, but after only a few steps, the elastic cord behind her tightened, and she plopped down hard on the ground.

Struggling, she pulled herself up from the mud and ran again toward the duck cage, only to fall flat once more.

After several attempts, panting heavily, Wang Fengwan collapsed onto the muddy ground. “Huff, huff! I’m done running. Whatever, if I lose, I lose!”

“Beep!” The director blew the whistle.

“Finally over!” Jiang Yun plopped down into the mud as well.

At that moment, the camera zoomed in on everyone.

Jiang Yun sat there looking completely unkempt in the mud, and Wang Fengwan was even worse—she was lying flat on the ground.

Ren Xing and Wei He fared no better; both sat in the mud, gasping for breath.

“Team Yellow has caught a total of four ducks!”

“Woohoo!” Wang Fengwan sat up and cheered.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Yun rolled his eyes inwardly—how silly, like a foolish girl!

“Team Yellow, take a break. Next up, Team Red will catch ducks, and Team Blue will cause trouble!”

“Ah?” Yang Ying suddenly frowned in dismay.

“Hehehe!” Zheng Kai grinned mischievously at Yang Ying and the others.

“Everyone, take your positions and get ready!”

Yang Ying, Deng Xin, and the others prepared themselves, poised to strike.

“Beep! Go!”

“Boom!”

Li You charged forward like a tank toward the duck cage.

Zheng Kai was assigned to disrupt Li You, but Zheng Kai’s body was dragged along as Li You ran!

Zheng Kai ended up running alongside Li You.

“Hey, hey, hey?” Zheng Kai couldn’t hold onto Li You and simply plopped down on the ground.

Li You accelerated, carrying Zheng Kai along, leaving a long trail behind them.

Reaching the duck cage, Li You grabbed a duck and turned back toward the starting point.

He placed the duck inside the cage upon arrival.

As for Zheng Kai, he was completely out of position, dragged along helplessly by Li You.

Li You’s speed was astonishing.

Zheng Kai’s teammates, Wang Lan and Wang Bao, seeing Zheng Kai unable to stop Li You, moved onto Li You’s track to create obstacles.

In the end, Li You was running through the mud with all three of them.

“Whoosh!”

Li You sped like a gust of wind, grabbed a duck by the cage, and without looking back, dashed toward the start.

Yang Ying stayed on her track, running in place, but Zhu Yin held onto the elastic cord, rendering Yang Ying unable to move.

Jiang Yun approached Zhu Yin. “Didn’t expect you to have such strength!”

“Hehehe!” Zhu Yin forced a smile. Strength? What nonsense—was he complimenting my build?

Jiang Yun quietly moved toward Li You’s track.

“Shh!” Jiang Yun gestured for silence.

Zheng Kai and the others winked and exchanged sly looks at Jiang Yun.

“Moo!”

Li You charged forward like a bull.

Suddenly, the elastic cord behind him tightened.

“Come back here!”

Li You plopped down in the mud, stunned. Wasn’t he supposed to be running? How did he end up sitting in the mud?

He turned and saw Jiang Yun pulling the elastic cord nearby, grinning mischievously.

“Jiang Yun, you can’t do that—you’ve already finished your turn!”

“All right, all right, I won’t cause trouble anymore!” Jiang Yun released the cord.

Li You resumed running.

Wang Fengwan saw Jiang Yun’s mischief and her eyes lit up.

She hurried to Li You’s track, ready to take revenge.

Wang Fengwan grabbed the elastic cord, preparing to pull with all her might.

Unexpectedly, Li You suddenly accelerated, pulling Wang Fengwan forward, causing her to fall face-first.

“Ah!”

“Plop!”

Wang Fengwan fell headlong into the mud, swallowing dirt.

“Ha ha ha!”

“Goose, goose, goose!”

Everyone burst into laughter. “Fengwan, you’ve completely lost your image now!”

Wang Fengwan scowled as she stood up from the mud.

“Goose, goose, goose!” Nearby, Li Mengya, who was filming the show, laughed until tears streamed down her face.

“Beep!” The director blew the whistle, signaling the end.

“Director, how did we do?” Li You asked.

“Five ducks caught—one more than Team Yellow!”

“Yeah!” Yang Ying jumped up excitedly.

“Now it’s Team Blue’s turn, and Team Yellow will cause trouble!”

Zheng Kai, Zhu Yin, and others prepared themselves.

Jiang Yun went to Zheng Kai’s track, Wang Fengwan to Zhu Yin’s, Ren Xing to Wang Lan’s, while Wei He was just tagging along.

“On your marks! Get ready!”

Zheng Kai and his team braced themselves.

“Beep!”

“Boom!”

Zheng Kai took the lead, running forward in long strides, splashing mud everywhere.

“Hmph!”

Jiang Yun snorted. “Just wait and see how I deal with you.”

He grabbed the elastic cord and yanked hard. Zheng Kai, running at full speed, was suddenly lifted off the ground.

“Hey, hey, hey?”

“Plop!”

Zheng Kai landed squarely in the mud.

“Yes!”

As for Wang Fengwan, she was utterly useless—trying to pull someone else but ended up falling herself!

“Ah!” Wang Fengwan cried out, tumbling face-first into the mud again.

Zhu Yin charged forward like a little cow, head down, and was the first to reach the duck cage.

She happily grabbed a duck, but the elastic cord behind her tightened suddenly, causing her to fall and the duck to fly away.

Zhu Yin turned around, her face dark with anger. “Senior Jiang Yun, that’s not fair!”

“Heh heh heh!” Jiang Yun laughed unkindly.

“Beep!”

“Time’s up!”

Zhu Yin stood up from the mud, her face still sullen.

“Hey, everyone, look at Zhu Yin—her face is purple with anger!” Chen Chi teased.

“Exactly, it seems Zhu Yin has a strong competitive spirit!” Deng Xin added.

Deng Xin and Chen Chi bantered back and forth.

“All right, everyone, the competition is over. Team Blue caught three ducks,” the director announced.

“Woohoo! Our red team won!” Deng Xin and Chen Chi hugged and cheered.

The director turned off the camera. “Everyone, go freshen up!”

“Let’s go, time to wash up!”

The twelve of them headed to a private bathhouse to clean up.

By the time they gathered again, everyone was dressed neatly.

The director turned the camera back on. “Red Team won the last challenge. They now have the right to inspect!”

“Now, please describe the word you received! Don’t be too obvious, or the undercover agent might guess!”

“Red Team, you may choose who will describe first!”

“We’ll choose Fengwan. I think she’s acting strange today, like she has a special mission,” Yang Ying said.

“All right!”

“Fine!”

Deng Xin and the others nodded.

“We’ll have Fengwan start describing!”

“Ah? Me?” Wang Fengwan pointed to herself. “You suspect I’m the undercover agent?”

“Bingo!”

“I’m not, really not!” Wang Fengwan grew anxious.

“Look, she’s getting flustered!”

“I...” Wang Fengwan looked like she was about to cry. “I really am not!”

“Fengwan, if you describe first, they’ll find out!” Jiang Yun said from the side.

“All right!” Wang Fengwan said. “The word I got is a kind of food. This food smells strange, but it tastes delicious! That’s all!”

Food? Jiang Yun frowned. Fengwan said it was food, so it probably wasn’t durian. What could it be?
