Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle Chapter 394 - Accepting Punishment

Chapter 394: Accepting Punishment

There were a total of 68 staff members present. One by one, they lined up to vote. There was a voting box behind each guest, and each ping pong ball counted as one vote. They voted for the guest whose article they thought was the best.

However, everyone had to circle around the guests before voting. When Qian Yi walked past Ling Sheng, he gave her a thumbs-up secretly and smiled in satisfaction.

Ling Sheng’s heart skipped a beat. Oh my, could he have really taken a liking to her? Would he be looking to make her a permanent member of the cast?

No one had noticed Qian Yi and Ling Sheng’s interaction. Only Luo Xin and Gu Shen had seen it. The duo had been paying attention to Ling Sheng.

Luo Xin could not help but laugh coldly. Ling Sheng was a good-for-nothing. She had been in the limelight the whole time. Right from the start, she had been manipulating things non-stop and causing all kinds of trouble. She did not know how to keep a low profile at all. She had even stolen Senior Shangguan’s limelight.

She wanted to see how badly she would be criticized when the show was broadcast. This was the first time a newbie was on a show, yet she was competing with the seniors for air time.

Gu Shen’s eyes were full of mockery. That promiscuous woman had even started seducing the director!

When the voting ended, everyone took their ping pong b.a.l.l.s out of their voting boxes.

The six of them counted: One.

Gu Shen took one out.

Then, they counted to two.

Gu Shen dug again, but there were no more b.a.l.l.s. His handsome face looked a little awkward. He let out a low cough and sat down on his seat, looking at the others as they counted.

Cheng Ye: Six. That’s all.

Ji Fanchen: Seven.

Luo Xin: Eight.

The only thing left was the showdown between Ling Sheng and Shangguan Yu. One by one, they took out their b.a.l.l.s as though their boxes were Pandora’s boxes.

The duo took one ball out each and counted. Then, they looked at each other and smiled. Although the atmosphere seemed very harmonious, they were actually engaged in a tug of war. Sparks flew from their eyes. A drama queen versus a drama queen. It was indescribably amusing and adorable to watch.

Shangguan Yu thought that this lady was too adorable. She was pa.s.sionate, generous, smart, beautiful, and not pretentious at all. It was not easy for someone to keep their true nature in the entertainment circle. He took out another ball and provoked her. “18.”

Ling Sheng took two out and smiled smugly at him. “19!”

Shangguan Yu continued taking more out, but he knew that there were no more b.a.l.l.s in the box. They were all in the lady’s box. However, he pretended to touch something. In the end, he took out some air seriously and looked at Ling Sheng. “I admit defeat.”

Ling Sheng smiled and cupped her hands. “Thank you for letting me win!”

The production staff laughed. It was just a number. The duo was acting like this was a swordfight, making them nervous and excited.

In the end, Ling Sheng won. There were 28 b.a.l.l.s in her box, which gave her a total of 28 points. In addition to the 10 points she had won in the previous round, her total score was 38 points.

Shangguan Yu: 18 points.

Ji Fanchen: 17 points.

Cheng Ye: 16 points.

Luo Xin: 8 points.

Gu Shen: 1 point.

The teacher spoke again, weighing the ferule in his hand. “Gu Shen’s essay was the worst. Come up and accept your punishment.”

Gu Shen went up obediently.

Teacher: “Take off your shoes.”

Gu Shen removed his shoes obediently.

The teacher said, “Lie down.”

Gu Shen’s expression changed slightly. He could afford to lose, so he lay down.

The teacher said, “Raise your legs.”

Gu Shen lifted his legs.

The place where the teacher was sitting was a meter higher than the seats of the students. It was a platform. When Gu Shen lay on it and lifted his legs, he could not see his head at all.

Teacher: “I’ll punish you three times. In the future, you’ll study hard and write articles. You’re not allowed to fool others, understand?”

Gu Shen replied, “Okay.”

The teacher hit him, but Gu Shen did not move. Normally, being hit by Third Uncle would hurt a lot more than this. Besides, this was a variety show. That was just a light touch.

Ling Sheng, who had evil intentions, wanted to seek revenge. She bent down and squatted beside the teacher quietly, winking as she gestured for the ruler.

The teacher took a look at Director Qian and gave her the ferule after receiving his approval.

Ling Sheng could finally seek revenge. Not only could she seek revenge, but she could also increase the hype for the show and boost Gu Shen’s popularity. This sc.u.mbag had benefited from this.

She looked at Gu Shen and announced silently, “Your future Third Aunt will punish you for speaking rudely!”
