Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!
Chapter 568: Not at All

Chapter 568: Chapter 568: Not at All

Shang Shaojing was silent for several seconds before he laughed as well.

"I’ve met Gu Yu, and you’re not Gu Yu."

His words once again dropped the atmosphere to freezing point.

Everyone was stunned.

"F*ck, what does that mean? Can there even be a fake Crown Prince?"

"Wait, wait a minute, Gu Yu said Shang Shaojing is his great-nephew, but Shang Shaojing just straight up said he isn’t Gu Yu."

"???? We’ve stumbled upon some aristocratic family secrets??"

"Brain can’t keep up, didn’t expect a survival show to be more thrilling than a melodramatic TV series."

Zhao Lang, however, was not worried.

"Great-nephew, just because I rejected your project earlier, you don’t need to rush to cut ties with me. Besides, I had a car accident abroad recently, underwent some cosmetic surgery on my face, and dyed my hair; things might look a bit different, but you can’t just disown me like that, right?"

"Ah, so he had plastic surgery, that’s alright then."

"Damn, after an accident he’s still so handsome, how amazing must he have been before."

"Shang Shaojing plays it so straight in front of the camera, wonder how he begs favor from others off-camera."

Shang Shaojing’s frown deepened.

The man in front of him bore some resemblance to the previous Gu Yu around the eyes and brows, but even with big changes in appearance, a person’s ingrained habits and aura are hard to alter.

He didn’t believe Gu Yu could change so drastically in just half a year.

"Who are you really, and why are you impersonating Gu Yu?" Shang Shaojing demanded coldly. "If you don’t tell the truth, don’t blame me for being rude. Once I eliminate you, the Gu Family will settle the score with you themselves."

He said this while glancing at Zhuola next to him.

But Zhuola secretly swallowed her saliva.

Brother, don’t look at her, she might not even be a match for that guy with the red cap if it really came down to it.

Sure enough, as soon as Shang Shaojing finished speaking, Pei Ye immediately stepped in front of Zhao Lang.

"Young Master, step back, I’ll handle these guys."

Quite a bold statement.

As Shang Shaojing internally scoffed, his gaze inadvertently swept to the wrist that Pei Ye had raised.

Beneath that wrist, there coiled a greenish-gray python pattern.

His pupils contracted.

That was... the Family Seal of the Gu Family!

Such markings only appeared on the servants of the Gu Family, and as far as he knew, they belonged to the Hidden Guard secretly cultivated by the Gu Family for hundreds of years.

The old man and the previous Gu Yu always had such people by their sides.

If this man was indeed a member of the Gu Family’s Hidden Guard, could he actually be Gu Yu?!

But... how is that possible?!

And yet, He Pingzhang had also come.

Something big must have happened on the outside!

Shang Shaojing hid the speculation in his eyes and gradually relaxed his expression, raising his head to look at Zhao Lang across from him.

"So it really is you, no wonder I didn’t recognize you at first."

Seeing him relent, Zhao Lang also smiled a bit, "No blame to my great-nephew, my arrival was sudden, I didn’t tell everyone, and to meet here must be fate."

Definitely sudden.

Previously, the old master never allowed "Gu Yu" to appear in public, yet now he even let him appear before the public cameras.

Too suspicious.

Su Yinwan noticed Shang Shaojing’s odd behavior, tugging at his sleeve, "What’s wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No problem." Shang Shaojing patted her hand. "Let me introduce you, this is the young master of the Gu Family... Gu Yu."

Su Yinwan immediately put on her warmest smile and extended her hand, "Young Master Gu, I’ve heard so much about you, I am Su Yinwan, thrilled to meet you."

Zhao Lang ignored her, his gaze still fixed on Shang Shaojing.

"Since it’s such a coincidence, why don’t we team up for the game? It saves us the trouble of looking for others."

Feeling ignored, Su Yinwan’s face flushed hotly, and she awkwardly withdrew her hand.

What is this Gu Yu playing at!

Even snubbing her like this!

"LMAO, Su Lvcha just got totally ignored haha."

"Dead, she really thinks she’s a big deal, but the Crown Prince didn’t even glance at her, stop flirting already!"

"Why didn’t he shake hands with Wenwen, this Gu Yu is so rude."

"Just for the fact Crown Prince Gu didn’t shake hands with Su Yinwan, I’m a fan of his now!"

As Zhao Lang said this, and since Shang Shaojing also wanted to uncover the secrets this man carried, he naturally didn’t refuse.

The two teams thus teamed up.

"Congratulations to both teams on a successful binding. Today’s game mode is ’roulette’, randomly drawing the mini-game you will play. Follow the rules to complete it."

"Please draw—"

"Congratulations players, you have drawn the ’Treasure Hunt’ game. Please find the plants in the pictures within the allotted two hours. The team that finds the most plants will win, obtaining a reward of 2000 points, while the losing team will have 500 points deducted. The countdown will begin shortly."

Shortly after, pictures of various plants appeared on the watches of all the participants.

Clearly, this game was easier for Team L, which had more members.

"Thank you." Shang Shaojing said.

Zhao Lang smiled, "No need to let me win, great-nephew, it’s not yet determined who will lose or win."

2000 points was a huge temptation, and once the countdown started, Shang Shaojing promptly allocated the Task Points, sending four people in four different directions.

Su Yinwan was somewhat reluctant.

"I’m afraid of getting lost, can I come with you, Brother Shaojing?"

Shang Shaojing hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn’t have the heart to refuse, taking Su Yinwan with him.

Even as they walked far away, Zhao Lang’s gaze did not leave them.

Pei Ye stepped forward.

"Does Young Master take displeasure in that man? I can go and eliminate them."

"No need." Zhao Lang waved his hand. "I just feel odd that Shang Shaojing has company by his side, but I haven’t even seen her shadow."

Pei Ye: "...."

He might as well go look for the plants; this task might be simpler for him.

...

...

Soon, Jiang Li’s team’s draw results also came out.

It was a knowledge quiz.

Ai Xiaochun smiled the moment she saw the option. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Perfect, it’s a game that doesn’t require physical effort and could crush Team Q.

That group looked like they had nothing in their heads, but they were different. Chen Manman was a legit 985 top university student who had studied abroad, and she and Luo Xuan had graduated from 211 universities.

Guo Xing was slightly less smart but still a college graduate.

Those folks hardly looked like they had been to college.

Watch, now that this game has come up, they had no expression on their faces, probably already baffled.

Jiang Yan indeed was baffled.

Knowledge quiz?

What knowledge?

If it was about drinking and chasing women, he could be world champion, but if it’s proper encyclopedia knowledge...

Sorry.

Not a clue.
