After Qu Feng finished speaking, Sheng Ziyou was stunned for a moment.
Then she looked at him: “Are you… afraid of water or afraid of answering questions?”
Qu Feng: “…”
After a moment, he tentatively said, with a wronged expression, “I’m afraid of everything.”
“…”
“I get scared when it shakes, but I can stand up. As for answering questions… I don’t know if I can manage…” Qu Feng said nervously, tugging at Sheng Ziyou’s clothes with a wronged look on his face.
Sheng Ziyou: “…”
Her voice was weak and feeble: “Just give it a try.”
We can only give it a try.
Lin Han and Zeng Xue failed their challenge, so it was Sheng Ziyou and Qu Feng’s turn next.
Zeng Xue, being quite young, was a bit spoiled. Wrapped in a towel, she kept sneezing, her eyes red, and she kept complaining, “There’s no way we can pass this! The production team is going too far!”
As Sheng Ziyou passed by her, she could still sense the resentment emanating from her.
“Queue up here.” A staff member waved from the side, and two stoves were lit over there so that the guests who had fallen into the water could rest and wait.
They couldn’t possibly actually give the guests a cold.
Actually, the weather here wasn’t very cold; when people were at home, they didn’t even need a down jacket.
The waterproof suit was quite thick, so as long as you don’t get wet, it won’t be too uncomfortable.
Sheng Ziyou stood in front of the foam wall, thought for a moment, and said, “Brother Qu, please don’t fall into the water. Let’s try first, we don’t expect to get through on the first try.”
As soon as he stepped onto the foam mat, Qu Feng, looking pale, replied, “Okay— be careful too.”
Zeng Xue sniffed and looked at Lin Han: “Brother Han…”
Lin Han turned to look at her, thought for a moment and said, “How about we switch seats?”
As long as you don’t fall, you won’t fall into the water while rock climbing.
Zeng Xue’s eyes lit up, and she nodded: “Okay, thank you, Brother Han.”
“Ready—Go!”
As soon as the whistle blew, Sheng Ziyou immediately started climbing.
The wall wasn’t high, but it swayed a lot, making it difficult to stand steadily.
Sheng Ziyou frowned slightly, her hands gripping the protrusion above, her feet trembling. She paused for about five seconds before the wall stopped shaking.
This is too difficult!
To avoid falling, you need to hurry up, especially as the wall shakes more violently the higher you go.
Sheng Ziyou pressed her entire body against the foam wall and began to accelerate.
The wall shook violently, but she clung to it tightly. As the wall swayed, her fingernails dug into the foam, and she gritted her teeth as she struggled upwards.
“Ding—” After pressing the bell, she leaned against the wall and let out a long breath.
But she didn’t move or go down. Instead, she turned her head and looked at the time. She had taken six and a half minutes, which was actually faster than Lin Han. It was really not easy.
There was a difference in physical strength between girls and boys, and Lin Han was taller, so it was easier for him to reach the bell when he stretched out his arm.
However, boys also had disadvantages; as being heavier made the wall sway more.
Sheng Ziyou gave Qu Feng nearly four minutes, during which he had to answer six questions correctly.
“What age does ‘the age of budding youth’ refer to?”
Qu Feng was completely bewildered, jumping around on the foam board while screaming in agony—
“What kind of question is this? How old am I again? I don’t know!! Ahhhhh!”
“Skip, skip!” Qu Feng shouted.
His appearance was so funny that the fans watching around him burst into laughter.
This guy’s status in the show had always been “funny”.
What is the highest mountain in my country?
Qu Feng was more like dancing on the board, waving his arms to maintain his balance, looking terrified, jumping around as if his butt was on fire.
“High? What’s so high?!”
“Mount Everest is high—” Qu Feng had just finished shouting when he was shaken into the water.
“Wrong answer,” the staff member said bluntly.
“Ugh—help me—”
“Save–“
Qu Feng had drowned!
Sheng Ziyou’s pupils contracted, and she jumped directly off the foam wall, cushioning her fall on the inflatable cushion before quickly landing in the water.
She quickly swam over and helped Qu Feng up, bringing his head above the water.
Qu Feng hugged Sheng Ziyou tightly, tears welling up in his eyes.
Sheng Ziyou: “…”
A moment later, she pushed him away with a dark expression.
Damn it, no wonder the production crew didn’t have anyone in the water ready to rescue people; the water couldn’t drown anyone at all.
Qu Feng held Sheng Ziyou tightly, as if she were clutching a lifeline, refusing to let go.
Sheng Ziyou yelled at him—
Stand up straight!
Qu Feng: “…”
His eyes were blurry as he placed his tucked-up feet on the bottom of the pool, and then…
The water only reached a little above his waist.
Qu Feng: “…”
Sheng Ziyou swam away with a dark face, and Qu Feng touched his nose and followed like a submissive wife.
Later, when it was broadcast, the editors added their own subtitles.
How come it’s only this tall?
Huh? So you can’t drown?
Mom, I’m scared.
I didn’t realize I was this tall…
Fans flooded the screen with comments, and the “Sheng Gong” and “Qu Shou” couple was officially born here and gained widespread recognition.
“Hahahaha!!! Qu Qu is going to make me laugh to death!”
“Holy crap, Sheng Ziyou was so damn cool when he jumped down to save people, I’m a fan now!”
“Is this the legendary hero rescuing the damsel in distress?”
“Holy crap! Qu Qu is such a submissive character in front of Sheng Ziyou! Sheng is the top, Qu is the bottom!! Oh my god, this is such an interesting couple, I’m a fan!”
“Wow, this girl is so charming! And look at how Qu Qu is following behind her like a timid wife, they’re such a perfect match!”
….
At that moment, Sheng Ziyou didn’t really think that much. She could swim, and she certainly couldn’t just stand by and watch someone drown.
She was also very disappointed in Qu Feng and found him extremely distasteful.
However, after the variety show aired, it did bring Sheng Ziyou a lot of traffic, whether it was the “Sheng Gong” and “Qu Shou” CP fans or other fans.
Qu Feng was indeed a top-tier celebrity.
Both of them fell into the water, and while wiping themselves off, they sat down by the stove.
Zeng Xue and Lin Han also prepared to go up and challenge again. Before going up, Zeng Xue looked at Sheng Ziyou’s figure and envy flashed in her eyes.
Sheng Ziyou was actually quite slender with long, straight legs. She was not flat-chested, and when she wore a tight-fitting waterproof outfit, you could hardly see any excess fat on her body— she was absolutely perfect.
She herself didn’t seem to care, sitting by the stove drying her hair. Yang Yun, who had come with the staff, immediately put a down jacket on Sheng Ziyou and then glared at Qu Feng.
Qu Feng touched his nose, his eyes and nose red, and hesitantly sidled up to him.
Sheng Ziyou looked at him with a detached expression.
Qu Feng: “Thank you…”
“It’s okay, I won’t go down, the production crew will.” Sheng Ziyou had just swum over when the production crew went into the water as well.
Qu Feng said again, “I’m sorry…”
Sheng Ziyou narrowed her eyes and asked him, “You can’t swim?”
“Meeting……”
Sheng Ziyou: “…” ???
“But when I’m scared, my mind goes completely blank, and I can’t remember anything, not even answering questions…”
Sheng Ziyou: “…” How the hell am I supposed to pass this level??
Before the two could exchange more than a few words, Zeng Xue, who was taking the challenge, screamed and fell off the wall into the water, failing the challenge.
“Us……”
“Let’s stop trying for now,” Sheng Ziyou said. “Let’s take a break; this level is a bit difficult.”
Qu Feng just choked on water, and he was afraid of heights. Even if he went now, his mind would probably go blank, and he wouldn’t know the answer to a single question.
He was clearly still scared, and looked at Sheng Ziyou with gratitude: “Ziyou, you are such a good person, I am so touched!”
Sheng Ziyou shook her head: “It’s okay, I need to rest for a while too.”
The two decided to refrain from the challenge for the time being and instead sat nearby to keep warm.
