8.3

Zhou Yunsheng had been muffled in the corner before, the sponsor did not pay attention to it, and when he saw him walk out across the crowd, his eyes suddenly lit up. This phone has a total of five colors, of which the pure white body with a black screen is the main one, giving people a clean, stylish and noble feeling. And Zhou Yunsheng’s appearance was a perfect match with this cell phone.

Jeffrey was about to hand him the black cell phone when he heard the sponsor say, “Give him white, he fits in white.”

Jeffrey shrugged his shoulders and replaced the white one, thinking to himself: well, it’s only good that you won’t be too disappointed in the boy later, he’s a stiff-handed, dull-eyed fool when he steps in front of the camera, and no amount of pristine beauty will save him.

Foolish Romeo was slowly hoisted into the pit as Jeffrey made one soothing comment, “Don’t move, don’t ever move, keep your weight steady and don’t fall, you can do it boy, I believe in you.”

Zhou Yunsheng nodded his head and tried to move his arms and legs only after the landing gear stopped moving. He folded his slender legs and sat down, as if he wasn’t in the air, and instead of being surrounded by crumbling walls and rusty metal frames, he was surrounded by an opulent palace with huge, soft sofas planted inside.

He was sitting on the couch at the moment, leisurely fiddling with his cell phone, thinking: who should I call out for an orgy?

“Oh my, I don’t know how he maintains that pose, is there really a chair behind him? That must be a gorgeous chair.” The sponsors were amazed at the pose the teenager had struck. That’s right, that’s exactly what they need, a feeling of being somewhere between imagination and reality.

Zhou Yunsheng had been fiddling with his cell phone with both hands, but now one hand pulled the phone far away from him, one hand against his forehead, and raised one eyebrow in an expectant expression, as if to say: why do I have to take the initiative to call? I have to wait and see, the first one to call me will get the highest reward.

The action doesn’t feel right on the air, while in the camera, the cell phone he’s pulled away from is so close to the display that it becomes the absolute star of the show, and the teenager’s slightly playful expression of anticipation becomes the perfect accent.

“Fantastic! I love him, he’s exactly what I imagined him to be.” The sponsor praised enthusiastically.

The photographer was also crazy, not waiting for Zhou Yunsheng to change his look to shoot non-stop, the flash clicked and clicked without a gap, and could blind people’s eyes. The teenager lifted a hand, turn a face, even pick an eyebrow and blink a wink, are so dexterous and moving, a few can be into the picture.

When Zhou Yunsheng relaxed his arms and legs, intending to change his look, Jeffrey suddenly called a halt, “Okay Romeo, you can come down now.”

“But I’ve only been up for three minutes.” Zhou Yunsheng held his cell phone, his expression looking overwhelmed and somewhat aggrieved.

Without waiting for Jeffrey to speak, the sponsor beckoned, “Come on down boy, we’ve got the most desired picture. You’re great!”

The cameraman also rubbed his nose in embarrassment, “I used up all thirty of your shots and can’t take any more. Boy, you’re the camera’s favorite, you’re no problem.” As a matter of fact, he had taken more than a hundred photos in a three-minute period of time, and he was satisfied with every one of them, and it was hard to let go of every one of them, but it was not a good idea to say this in public, lest the other contestants feel that it was unfair.

“Come on down and be careful.” Jeffrey encouraged as he let the mechanic slowly move the teen back to level ground, “You’re doing great, keep it up.”

Zhou Yunsheng smiled and nodded his head, turning his face to realize that all the contestants were looking at him with jealous eyes, except for Emily, Hayden, and a woman with flaming red hair.

Emily didn’t see him as a rival at all; Hayden had no time for him because of his fear; and the red-haired woman because of her open-mindedness. Zhou Yunsheng remembered that her name was Evan Buist, a very masculine name, with a height of 180 centimeters, the tallest of all the female contestants, and a look that carried a bit of a man’s Englishness.

She and Emily are the only two contestants who won’t sneer at Romeo and ostracize and suppress him, but unlike Emily’s out-of-sight, she is truly bright and generous. In her opinion, Romeo is just a child who hasn’t grown up yet and doesn’t know the rules of the game in the adult world.

That’s completely forgivable.

She raised her thumbs in praise, and Cho Yoon Sung quickly returned a smile before continuing to hide in an unoccupied corner.

The next few contestants couldn’t satisfy the sponsors, and finally Hayden was the only one left. Hayden tried his best to suppress the feeling of fear, his tight facial lines instead making him look more composed and reliable.

Jeffrey said to his sponsor as he pushed him into the pit, “This is one of my favorite contestants and has always been able to take really great hard shots, you’ll be pleased.”

Then he was hit in the face. Hayden struggled and trembled violently like an insect clinging to a spider’s web on the verge of perishing, and the phone was thrown away from him, falling in pieces at the bottom of the pit.

“Oh, no, no, no, put me down! I can’t, I really can’t.” He shouted as he waved his hands around, then planted one of his weights and hung upside down in the air. The weightlessness made him scream miserably, the normally all-powerful tough guy crying like a baby at this point.

Jeffrey was dumbfounded, and the sponsor covered his face with his hands in misery.

Instead, the cameramen all gathered around, filming Hayden’s ugliness from every angle. Their job was to get enough great footage, the more eye-catching the better.

“Don’t move, don’t be afraid, take slow deep breaths to calm yourself. We have safety measures in place, you’re not in danger. Hayden you have to trust me and trust the crew.” Jeffrey tried to reassure him but with little success, he was still struggling and had stirred up several of the safety ropes, making it harder and harder to keep his balance.

A man screamed at a volume no lower than a woman’s, and the sponsor tried to pull out his ears, saw the cameraman who was following him, and had to step aside silently.

Jeffrey had no choice and waved his hand, “Put him down and we’ll shoot when he’s calm.”

The mechanic immediately maneuvered the landing gear to pull Hayden back to the ground.

All the contestants rallied around to comfort him, and Emily even held him tightly in her arms and kept patting and caressing him, mouthing, “Shhhhhh, well you’re safe, they won’t let you up there again, you’re safe.” God knows how humiliated and embarrassed she was at this moment. She liked tough, do-it-all men, not a sissy who yelled and screamed when she climbed a little higher. She felt cheated, but Hayden’s family background allowed her to tolerate the deception for the time being.

Jeffrey snaps, “No, he still has to go up honey. If he doesn’t finish his shot he won’t have enough points to advance to the next round.”

Hayden, who had regained his composure a little, broke down again, his face white, his eyes red, and his body shaking uncontrollably.

The players were again comforted by kind words, but what was going on in their minds was unknown.

The only two people on the scene who didn’t go over to join in the fun were Zhou Yoon Sung and Ivan. Zhou Yunsheng was waiting for the right moment, while Ivan was purely because she hated Hayden. All the other contestants said how Romeo was so arrogant and difficult to get along with, however, in her opinion, the one who was the most arrogant and difficult to get along with should be Hayden. However, he was a person who was very good at hiding himself and possessed the aura of a powerful nobleman, so he temporarily clouded everyone’s senses.

The more he is warmly reassured, the weaker Hayden becomes, repeatedly indicating to Jeffrey that he can’t do it and if he can switch the location to the ground.

It was obviously unfair to the other players and Jeffrey rightfully refused. There was a bit of a stalemate in the scene.

At that exact moment, Romeo walks over and laughs as he claps his hands together, “Look at that, who is this poor little crying mess in front of us? Oh, so it’s Tough Guy Hayden! I didn’t realize that in Tough Guy Hayden’s skin lived a little kid in diapers and a pacifier who never grew up. Emily, go change into a wider skirt now.”

Not waiting for Emily to express her anger at his vicious words, he continued, “That way little Hayden Babe can hide in his mommy’s skirt and cry all he wants. That’s the best place for him to be.”

“Romeo, you’re an asshole!” Emily cursed angrily.

The other players also spoke out in condemnation, “Romeo, you’ve gone too far! Don’t you have any compassion?”

Hayden even forgot about his fear and swung his fists to rush up and beat up the teenager, but was held in a death grip by Jeffrey, who admonished, “Hayden calm down, our show prohibits all physical violence, and those who actively harm others will be sentenced out. So please calm down.”

Hayden was still struggling, and Zhou Yunsheng continued to stimulate, “Oh Hayden little babe, besides hiding in your mommy’s arms and crying and punching people, do you have any other skills? Why don’t you hang up and let me see? If you don’t dare to go up, then hurry up and pack your bags and go home, I’ll be very happy.” With that said he raised his hands and wiggled his ass in an early celebratory gesture.

If this image was broadcast, Romeo’s already rotten reputation would become infamous, he’s so unsympathetic. But the cameramen didn’t care about that, they only cared about the show being gimmicky and eye-catching, so they filmed the confrontation from all angles.

Hayden suddenly regained his composure and said to Jeffrey, “Hoist me up again, I want to keep filming.”

“That’s great, I’m so proud of you kid.” Jeffrey gave him a warm hug and then had him hoisted up.

Because of the anger and hatred that backs him up, Hayden does a fantastic job, and although he blushes a bit when he changes moves, he gets right into the swing of things when he balances his body. The cameraman catches a few very rendered shots and expresses high praise for Hayden’s fearlessness.

The sponsors also nodded their heads repeatedly in satisfaction.

Everyone looks up at Hayden, clapping in unison to cheer him on with every move he changes. They had forgotten Romeo to the back of their minds, the cameramen would not. They wanted to capture Romeo’s expression of surprise, or disappointment, or jealousy.

But when they moved the camera to the outskirts of the crowd they noticed that Romeo was actually smiling, his eyes overflowing with real joy and eagerness, and then turned his head away with a cold grunt when he realized the camera was following him.

What’s wrong with him? Jerking off? Several cameramen looked at each other.

Ivan rubbed his jaw and mused, It seems Romeo isn’t as disgusted with Hayden as he lets on. The boy is harboring a lot of things in his heart.
