EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 303

Actually, Suny was discovered and invited by the talent scouts when she was sixteen. But she had never thought of starting her career in the entertainment circle, so she never gave them a positive answer. When she first went to college, some agents even contacted her instructor to ask her whether she agreed to sign the contract or not. As long as she agreed, they would invest ten million dollars to popularize her, but Suny wasn’t convinced. And Suny wouldn’t have come to the crew to record the show if Alicia hadn’t been pestering her unceasingly.

This variety show, named Run Forward, was a show in that participants had to fight their path through the difficulties both physically and mentally, and most of it would be filmed outdoor. Five teams were going to join Run Forward this season. Each team consisted of a star and an ordinary person, among which included the new actor Shawn Browns, the best supporting actor for the year and his friend Sam Winters, the popular young actress Shirley Summers and her bosom friend Maple Woods, the new generation singer Joseph Williams and his elder brother Matthew Williams, as well as the skilled actor Kelvin Smith who regained his popularity last year, and his friend Donald Ford.

After they finished doing makeup, the compere told the guests to gather outside and introduced them one by one, and then they were told to know each other in a few minutes.

Suny was so dead-gorgeous that very few of the stars in the entertainment circle today could out-compete her. Quite a few wondered whether Joan was helping Suny to make her first debut when they saw Suny’s face. But, anyone that could be able to take part in the show was smart enough to say the right things.

After the brief self-introduction, the compere began to show them how to play the game.

The introduction was brief enough. In a word, the guests would win the points based on their performance on the tasks every season. And, from the third season, the team with the least points would be weeded out of the show.

The play script given out by the show didn’t help at all, for they had only the names of the tasks on each season without details. And the task’s name for this season was "See the Forest through the Trees". To ensure the feedback of the show, all the staff didn’t leak out any information during the filming and the guests had to figure it out all on their own.

This was the first season. As the investor's friend, Alicia didn’t have any privileges. Usually, by no means would Alicia admit that she was not smart enough, but she was extremely confused when she read the verses on the card.

“The reflecting shadows of the mountains tiled on the water;

There are households living deep in the clouds;

Look into the distance, the water and mountains are green,

Look closely, the blossoms are so red to be enjoyed.”

But, Alicia wasn’t the only one to be confused. So were the others.

Shirley simply covered her face and screamed lightly, “Holy moly! What kind of clue card is it? Are they telling me to do the language test?”

Actually, Alicia couldn’t agree more with Shirley, but she had to keep her public persona as an aloof beauty, so she couldn’t say a word about it.

“Maybe!” Shawn laughed when he heard Shirley.

Suny stood by and didn’t say anything. She simply glanced at Alicia and then smiled, “I got it. Let’s go.”

Everyone was frozen when hearing what she said. Shirley’s friend Maple was an Internet celebrity, and she was jealous of Suny at the first sight of her stunning face. She couldn’t help to say something when she heard that Suny claim to have figured out the answer within a few minutes. “Really? Did you figure out something in it?”

In fact, Maple meant to tell Sunny not to play clever. But they were in front of the camera and she choked back with that sentence.

Alicia couldn’t stand any doubt against Suny and snorted, “Suny used to be the top scorer of the college entrance examination. Of course, she is much smarter than us.”

In the first place, Alicia didn’t mean to hurt anyone by saying that. Since she had been a veteran in this circle, she knew better than anyone else what she should say now.

What Alicia said flattered Suny but meanwhile classified her to be ordinary.

Maple wasn’t happy in her heart but she still smiled, “Oh, how impressive! But Shirley is pretty good enough! She was the top one in the grade.”

Shirley was so camp and said, “Oh, forget it! It was ages ago.”

Where there were people, there were competitions. Even the onlookers could smell the tension in the air.

“Are you coming or not?” Suny squinted at her while Alicia was about to talk back.

“You are the boss, Suny!” Alicia shut up immediately.
