52: Chapter 52 features the most nerve-wracking game, Pictionary.

After the two of them took their positions and assigned their roles, with Su Qing acting out the clues and Zhou Yichen guessing, they immediately confirmed it with Director Zhou.

Seeing this, Director Zhou immediately had the staff enter and hold up a question board with the four characters "Love at First Sight" written on it.

Su Qing froze for a moment, then her cheeks flushed slightly as she cupped her hands over her heart and made a heart-fluttering gesture.

Zhou Yichen glanced at it with almost no hesitation.

"Love at First Sight."

"Correct! Next question!"

Su Qing's expression visibly relaxed a bit, and she smiled at Zhou Yichen.

Seeing this, Zhou Yichen could only force a smile.

...

Over the next few questions, Zhou Yichen answered very quickly; although there were some mistakes, his accuracy was still fairly high.

Netizens praised and complained in turns, but overall, the atmosphere was fairly peaceful.

After all, this group's performance was indeed standard; while there were no particular highlights, there was nothing to roast either.

In the end, Zhou Yichen and Su Qing's group correctly answered 10 questions within the allotted time and scored 10 points.

This score was quite average, because a game like charades still relies a lot on luck.

Behind the monitor, Director Zhou nodded, signaling the staff to record the score.

...

As for the next two pairs to take the stage, they truly cracked up the netizens in the livestreaming room—they never expected charades could be played like this.

All sorts of thunderous poses, including terms like Ultraman and Lightning Boy, were pulled out, giving netizens a brand-new experience that truly opened their eyes.

However, joking aside, their scores weren't high at all—not even as high as Zhou Yichen's group.

Fortunately, the parties involved were open-minded and letting loose, not caring too much since these points could still be accumulated.

Time always flies quickly.

Finally, it was the turn of the last group.

Everyone's gazes were focused on the two people in the corner.

Lu Li was leaning against the sofa drinking yogurt, while Shen Qingxue sat beside him, looking down at her phone. There was a distance of about half a meter between the two of them.

Director Zhou raised his megaphone and cleared his throat.

"The final group, Shen Qingxue and Lu Li! Please get ready!"

Lu Li finished his yogurt, tossed the carton into the trash can, and Shen Qingxue also stood up.

The two of them walked one after the other toward the white background board in the middle.

Halfway there, Lu Li suddenly slowed down his pace to wait for Shen Qingxue to catch up, tilting his head slightly and lowering his voice.

"How should we divide the work? I'll act out the clues and you guess?"

He figured that with Shen Qingxue's personality, she probably wouldn't be able to let loose if she had to act out the clues, so he might as well take the initiative.

Shen Qingxue glanced at him with no hesitation.

"Fine."

Soon, the two took their positions in front of the background board, separated by a distance of about three meters.

A staff member stood behind Shen Qingxue holding the question board, making sure Shen Qingxue couldn't see the prompt.

"I'm ready."

Lu Li shouted out loud.

Hearing this, the staff member quickly revealed the question board, which had a line of text written on it.

Taking a face-plant into the dirt.

Lu Li froze instinctively. What the hell, is the difficulty this high right off the bat?

Simple gestures could easily be mistaken for just a fall, but actually lying down to gnaw on the sand was definitely something he wasn't willing to do.

Besides, he couldn't just start barking like a dog either.

[I'm dying of laughter, how is he supposed to act this out? This is deliberately making things difficult for Lu Li!]

[If all else fails, Lu Li, just howl a couple of times and then fall down to take a couple of bites of sand. Anyone will understand that instantly!]

[Let's all learn to bark like dogs together, woof woof woof woof woof~]

[Lu Li is completely dumbfounded, having no idea how to act this out.]

[Hahaha I'm dead, the Program Team is so ruthless.]

At this moment, watching Lu Li fall into a dilemma, Shen Qingxue couldn't help but frown.

"What are you still waiting for?"

Lu Li looked at her silently, with only one thought in his mind.

...I lowered my guard and didn't dodge; if I had known earlier, I would have let Shen Qingxue act it out.

But right at this moment, out of the corner of his eye, Lu Li happened to catch sight of the expressionless Zhou Yichen, and an idea instantly sparked in his mind.

Hey...!!!

I've got a way.

Zhou Yichen was puzzled, feeling a bit creeped out by Lu Li's gaze. What kind of evil scheme was this brat cooking up again?

Under Shen Qingxue's puzzled gaze, Lu Li pointed at Zhou Yichen and shouted loudly.

"Him, passing the checkpoint this morning, and then the antonym of meow~."

Then, Lu Li assumed a standard starting posture, leaning forward with both hands supporting the ground, and then...

"Thud~"

Lu Li threw his entire body flat onto the ground, his face almost touching the sand. That action was as vivid and realistic as it could get.

The scene went quiet for half a second.

"Pfft..."

Lin Yu was the first one who couldn't hold it back, covering her mouth as her shoulders shook with laughter.

Zhou Yichen's face darkened instantly.

Of course he knew what Lu Li was acting out.

Wasn't this acting out that fall he took this morning?

[Hahahahaha I'm dying, is Lu Li acting out Zhou Yichen?]

[You can even act it out like this? You motherfucker are really a genius.]

[That classic scene of the starting-line fall from this morning—I never expected it to be recreated right here.]

[This is what you call a classic recreation~]

[Lu Li's move is straight-up psychological warfare, hahahaha]

[Goddess, hurry up and guess! What are you standing there frozen for when it's so obvious?]

[Zhou Yichen: Are you polite?]

[Polite: Zhou Yichen, your...]

[Zhou Yichen's politeness: Your...]

Watching Lu Li's performance, although Shen Qingxue's expression remained cold and aloof, a trace of imperceptible amusement flashed deep in her eyes.

With almost no hesitation, she directly gave the answer.

"Taking a face-plant into the dirt."

Lu Li crawled up from the ground, patted the sand off his body, and gave Shen Qingxue a thumbs-up.

"Bingo~ Correct!"

The staff member nodded on the side, indicating a point scored.

Director Zhou sat behind the monitor, laughing so hard the corners of his mouth were practically splitting to his ears.

This kid really is talented as hell.

Soon, the staff gave out the second question.

The moment Lu Li saw the prompt, his face darkened. Was the Program Team fucking targeting him?

It was no wonder Lu Li thought this way, because the prompt was called...

Mermaid.

Lu Li stared at those three characters for three seconds, then slowly raised his head to look at Shen Qingxue.

Shen Qingxue stood opposite him, waiting expressionlessly for him to perform.

Lu Li took a deep breath, his brain spinning at high speed.

A mermaid? How is he supposed to act this thing out?

He couldn't possibly take off his pants to walk, could he?

[Hahahaha I'm dead, a mermaid! This question is brilliant!]

[Lu Li, go ahead and act! What are you standing there frozen for?]

[I want to see him flopping around on the ground like a fish.]

[Hahaha I'm dying, the only two victims of this session are Lu Li and Zhou Yichen.]

[Lu Li: I thank you so much, Program Team.]

Countless thoughts flashed through Lu Li's mind, but in the end, he rejected them one by one.

When acting out a mermaid, what are the most crucial elements?

A human body and a fish tail.

But he only had half of that—so what should he do?

Lu Li took a deep breath, and then lay his entire body down on the ground.

That's right, just lying down.

He lay on his side, keeping his legs pressed together and constantly shuffling them, propping up his head with one hand while covering his mouth with the other, all the while not forgetting to wink and blow a kiss at Shen Qingxue.

The whole scene could only be described as a bit blinding to the eyes.

What was even more ultimate was that Lu Li even provided his own sound effects/voice-over.

"Without you, I'm like a thi~ thirsting to death..."

Of course, Lu Li didn't shout out the last word, otherwise it would have been a foul.
