Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 243 - : How Could It Be Her?!

Chapter 243 -243: How Could It Be Her?!

“Hahaha, the young master’s face has gone white, but I got a scare just now too. Who knocks on the door in the middle of the night, especially in a place like this?”

“Seriously, it’s scary. Could this be a prank from the production team?”

“I’m dying of laughter, Director Sun, stop scaring him already.”

“A big guy, over six feet tall, scared stiff like a quail.”

Jiang Yan sat on the stool without moving, his hand holding the cup trembling uncontrollably, a few drops of noodle soup spilled over the rim.

Knowing the camera was still rolling, he coughed loudly with his fist to his lips, masking the awkward silence.

“Hey, bro, could you check the door for me?”

The cameraman stood still and shook his head upright, “I need to keep filming, opening the door isn’t part of my job.”

Seeing the other person standing rigid like a statue, eyes narrow and devoid of emotion, Jiang Yan finally gave in.

“Fine, fine, I’ll go myself,” he slammed the cup down on the table, “It’s just a door, right? I refuse to believe there are really ghosts in the middle of the night.”

He shouted very loudly, yet his voice still trembled slightly.

Then, he took the steps to the door in stride, rested his hand on the wooden latch, took a deep breath, and pulled the door open all at once.

Luckily, there was someone at the door.

A slender figure, a long shadow stretched by the moonlight.

A shadow meant it was a person.

Jiang Yan let out the breath he was holding.

But as his eyes fell on the person’s face, Jiang Yan still widened his eyes in shock.

“Holy shit??? What the hell are you doing here?!”

The camera panned over.

At that moment, the viewers in the live broadcast also saw the person standing at the door.

It was Jiang Li.

Southwest Plateau Airport.

Five people sat in the VIP lounge, each keeping to themselves.

The broadcast continued, and viewers noted the familiar silence.

“I’m dead, Flash Change really does finish as it starts: no one talking to each other at the beginning, and the same at the end.”

“My social anxiety’s cured thanks to Flash Change. I felt awkward watching the preview, now I don’t feel awkward at all.”

“Someone in the chat come and chat with me about something trivial, I reckon they’ll keep this up for another half hour.”

“Seriously, does anyone know why Jiang Li suddenly left? I still can’t figure it out.”

Just over half an hour ago, as they were about to leave the Chixia Mountain District by car, Jiang Li suddenly asked the driver to stop, whispered something to Director Sun, and then left alone with her suitcase.

Nobody knew why she did that.

Wen Jiaojiao was initially shocked, thinking Jiang Li was giving up on life, clutching desperately at Jiang Li’s waist.

It wasn’t until Jiang Li explained she needed to go back to Chixia Village to take care of something that Wen Jiaojiao let go, and tearfully saw her off.

Helpless, the rest had to head to the airport first.

There was still an hour before their flight.

Since the production team still hadn’t returned their phones, the five just tried to kill time with whatever was available in the lounge.

Wen Jiaojiao sat on the center sofa, back to playing the aloof little princess.

Without Jiang Li, she had no desire to talk and just fiddled with her nails, damaged from farm work.

Shu Yan sat not too far from her, scanned the group, then continued reading her beauty magazine.

He Yun was resting with his eyes closed.

Shang Shaojing and Su Yinwan sat opposite them.

It seemed like something had happened, as every two minutes, Shang Shaojing had to get up and answer a phone call, his expression extremely stern.

Su Yinwan wore a face full of worry and unwillingness.

How could she be content?

She had worked hard for several days, only for Jiang Li to snatch away all the honors in the end.

It didn’t matter much that she hadn’t managed to win first place, or that she hadn’t successfully cultivated affinity with Jiang Yan, nor had the intended plot continued as it should have.

The Divine Sense system inside her kept on relentlessly reminding her not to let the plot deteriorate further.

She didn’t want the plot to fall apart either!

But every time, things went contrary to her wishes; what could she do?

Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere had become unbearably tense, Director Sun could no longer sit still and cleared his throat:

“Everyone—”

With a “whoosh,” five pairs of eyes, each filled with differing degrees of grief, shot towards him.

Director Sun: “……”

Maybe he shouldn’t have made that sound?

But he’d already spoken, and retracting his words now would only confirm the rumors that he couldn’t control these youngsters.

He’d already been mocked enough by his peers for that.

They laughed at him for directing an unconventional variety show.

And for inviting a bunch of unconventional people.

With this in mind, Director Sun cleared his throat and deliberately straightened his back as he continued:

“Everyone, I believe that after spending over a week together, you must have established a deep connection with each other, right?”

As he spoke, he lifted his eyelid slightly to observe the expressions of the five individuals.

All of them appeared distinctly cold.

Director Sun: “…..”

This wasn’t what he had envisioned!

Logically, shouldn’t the guests be hugging each other and crying together at the end of such a variety show?

Why was everything different with his show?

They had been helping each other while farming!

It must be because he hadn’t fanned the emotions enough!

Determined, Director Sun put more effort into his words.

“There have been laughter and tears this week, and us staff members have seen all your hard work, as this transformative journey truly wasn’t easy.”

“But this is also the dedication of the production team. The process of harvesting is the process of growing, not just for the crops but for people as well, who have been inherently tied to agriculture since the primitive era—a connection that has persisted for thousands of years until today. Even though times change, as humans, we mustn’t forget our roots.”

“This is the purpose of our variety show—returning to nature, returning to our true selves.”

The few people below didn’t fail to notice Director Sun’s intentions.

Wen Jiaojiao: Is the old man getting hyped? Won’t stop talking? So annoying, I miss Lili, wonder what she’s doing now? Why is he still trying to stir emotions? I have never bought into this stuff, forget it, I might as well stop painting my nails and give him a little face by listening.

Shu Yan: Damn, this magazine is actually pretty good, wow, that makeup is incredible, I need to take a photo with my phone! Wait, Director Sun is still talking, not a good time to use my phone, I should hold off a little longer… I can barely stand it… Why is he still talking?

He Yun: Returning to our true selves… What is my true self? If only Jiang Li were here, I could ask her, she understands me better than anyone else in this world, wonder where she is now? Has Jiang Yan bullied her? Will we meet again after returning to the Capital?

Shang Shaojing: What’s this old man raving about now? Already the eighth phone call, is it another mess caused by Shang Shaobai’s guy? Is the person Gu Yu found really Zhao Lang? The time is too short, would be better if it were two more days longer, maybe find a reason to return with Jiang Li? No, that would make her think I’m interested in her again, huh.

Su Yinwan: Can the system stop talking already? I get the urgency of the mission, can you be quiet for a while? Even Director Sun, this old man, is talking too much, so annoying, cameras are still on, maybe I should just pretend?

When Director Sun looked up, he noticed that the previously listless five people were staring at him with solemn expressions.

Even Su Yinwan’s eyes were welling up with tears.

He felt a moment of consolation.

Ah.

He was directing a normal variety show after all.

These people were normal too.
