Chapter 176: Chapter 176 Recording "Today’s Hot News

```

Compared to other celebrities, Deng Xiaoxiao was particularly interested in He Jinxia, and even before filming started, she curiously asked her many questions.

Her questions were the same old, starting with, "Jinxia, I had no idea you’d look this good after losing weight! Goodness, I can’t even remember what you looked like when you were heavier!"

When she had just started to successfully lose weight, He Jinxia could hear similar comments wherever she went and had already grown accustomed to them.

From her initial calm smile to now, she had developed a new repertoire of responses, and with a mischievous blink, she said, "That’s because I lost weight scientifically, rationally, and desperately. Do you want to give it a try?"

Deng Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I don’t need to lose much, just about ten pounds would be enough."

He Jinxia looked her up and down from head to toe, her brows slightly furrowed. Under Deng Xiaoxiao’s slightly nervous gaze, she slowly said, "That won’t work."

Deng Xiaoxiao was confused, "It should be possible, right? If you could lose weight down to eighty pounds, there’s no reason I can’t shed ten!"

He Jinxia spoke seriously, "If you lose any more, you’re going to become a paper-thin person. For the safety of your health, I wouldn’t recommend dieting."

Deng Xiaoxiao paused, then burst into hearty laughter.

She thought to herself that He Jinxia was really interesting, and this was her way of complimenting her thin figure!

Her fondness for He Jinxia grew even more.

Therefore, during the following program recording, Zhang Zhihuan rallied everyone’s spirits and controlled the tempo onstage, ensuring everyone had a chance to speak, but Deng Xiaoxiao’s attention was particularly focused on He Jinxia and Wu Daxi.

To tell the truth, Wu Daxi was just an addition; Deng Xiaoxiao was almost desperate to announce to the whole world her special admiration for He Jinxia, wanting He Jinxia’s personal weight loss guide!

"I have a dream, to join hands with you, shoulder to shoulder~ I have a dream, to soar with you in the blue sky~ Big dreams, small people, the heart is as wide as the stage..."

After wrapping up the first interview segment, the cast jovially and casually sang the theme song of "Today’s Hot News", Biling~Biling moving on to the next game segment.

The game they played was neither too difficult nor too simple; it was an outdoor competitive sport!

The production team recreated scenes of rock climbing and mud crawling on location, almost up to standard requirements, clearly intending to play for real.

The cast was surprised, because in the script, there were only four words for this segment: outdoor sports.

Everybody thought of outdoor running and tag ripping, similar to the show "Running Man", but the production team went with a literal approach without any modifications.

Zhang Zhihuan shouted to everyone, "Hurry up and divide into teams, red team and blue team; we have just the right number of people."

"Come on, Daxi, come over to my side." As soon as he finished speaking, he waved at Wu Daxi.

Deng Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened, and she quickly made an exaggerated gesture, shouting that it wasn’t okay!

"Teacher Zhang, you can’t take Wu Daxi away, if you two men are on the same team, doesn’t that leave us no chance?"

It’s common knowledge that men have better physical strength than women, and with the scene involving rock climbing and obstacle running, having a man on the team is definitely an advantage!

He Jinxia stood next to Deng Xiaoxiao, nodding in agreement, "Right, Wu Daxi can’t be yours!"

Zhang Zhihuan raised an eyebrow and said, "How about this, let’s first decide who will be the captains of the two teams. I’ll be the captain of the Red Team, and Xiaoxiao, you’ll be the captain of the Blue Team."

```

Everyone expressed no objections.

Zhang Zhihuan turned to Wu Daxi and said, "To prevent Xiiaoxiiao from saying we bullied him, you go join her team."

Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s mouth curled into an even brighter smile, but the next second, Zhang Zhihuan said, "Come on, Fat Emperor, come to my side."

Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s smile froze on her face, feeling like she had been tricked. She quickly grabbed He Jinxia’s hand, saying, "No way, no way, Fat Emperor has to come to my side!"

Zhang Zhihuan chuckled without giving in, "You can only choose one, either Wu Daxi or He Jinxia."

Deng Xiiaoxiiao immediately became distressed, her face a picture of indecision, wanting to cheat her way out.

Zhang Zhihuan stood his ground, giving her only two choices, and in the end, Deng Xiiaoxiiao chose Wu Daxi.

As He Jinxia walked away from her, she immediately squatted down, hugged her legs, and refused to let her go. Her face was a mix of pleading and distress as she pretended to cry out,

"Ah, my little fairy, don’t leave me!"

Zhang Zhihuan, from nowhere, produced a "big knife" prop that was clearly made of foam; it was so fake it was almost touching.

He approached Deng Xiiaoxiiao and He Jinxia, busily swinging the big knife at Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s hands clasped around the legs, and in post-production, the show would add the sound of chopping wood, "ka-cha, ka-cha."

Zhang Zhihuan: "Let go of me, your Cowherd is right beside you, release my fairy!"

Deng Xiiaoxiiao let out a wail, stubbornly refusing to let go: "No, that’s my little fairy!"

Zhang Zhihuan struggled to cut with the big knife and finally threw it away, shouting outwards: "Heavenly Soldiers, where are you? Drag this mortal away!"

Indeed, several people in black rushed out on the scene. They lifted Deng Xiiaoxiiao, who struggled fiercely, and her words were so funny they had the audience in stitches.

The interaction between Zhang Zhihuan and Deng Xiiaoxiiao seemed to ignite the rhythm of the entire show; after that, the show took a turn towards irretrievable playfulness.

Li Li was assigned to Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s group, Song Zilin to Zhang Zhihuan’s group. After the teams were confirmed, the robotic voice introducing the game began:

"This round of the game is called ’Save the Universe.’ First to cross the wooden bridge, those who fall must start over. After crossing the wooden bridge, enter the second stage, crawling across the muddy ground. The third stage is rock climbing; climb to the top to pick a red flower, which counts for one point.

Return and pass the red flower to a teammate, and then the teammate embarks on ’Saving the Universe’ again, following the same rules. I severely warn you, you only have twenty minutes to save the universe! Only twenty minutes!!

When time is up, the team with the most red flowers wins. If the number of red flowers is the same, the team that completed more stages wins. Do you understand?"

Both teams quickly huddled together to discuss tactics and arrange their manpower. After five minutes, the imposing robotic voice rang out again: "Did you understand?"

Everyone shouted excitedly: "Understood!"

"Guardians from the Otherworld, give your all to save the universe, the game officially starts!"

As soon as the mechanical voice finished, members from the Red Team and Blue Team rushed out.

Coincidentally, the first person sent out by the Red Team was Zhang Zhihuan, and the first person sent out by the Blue Team was Wu Daxi—man vs. man, a battle of the strong versus the strong.
