My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 368

Before filming for the event started, Wang Xiaoou went through every process carefully. They brought their own makeup, makeup artist and even prepared their own wardrobe. Everything checked out.

As filming started, the first challenge was a hundred-meter swim race. Before that, the participants had to first train their swimming technique under the supervision of a swimming champion.

Whoever did well in that challenge would receive an advantage and special privileges.

Obviously, all the participants knew how to swim, just with different degrees of proficiency.

Hence, before the professional training began, all of them had to swim one lap and record their times. After training, they would then compare and see who had the biggest gains in performance.

Before Wang Xiaoou sent Ning Ran over, she asked, “How’s your swimming?”

“I had some practice when I was young, but rarely swam when I was older. I can only guarantee you that I won’t drown,” Ning Ran joked wryly.

“In that case, you should swim slower in the first round, so that your initial results won’t be that good. After training, the gap between your results will appear bigger, and you will have the advantage,” Wang Xiaoou whispered.

Ning Ran felt uncomfortable when she heard it. “Swim slowly on purpose? Isn’t that faking it? It would not be fair to the other contestants.”

Wang Xiaoou straightened her face. “This is a reality show, who isn’t faking it? Besides, you should keep it down.”

“But…”

“Don’t but me. You’re a guest star, so the audience’s attention will be focused on you. Therefore, you have to put in a good performance, or the netizens will have you for lunch,” Wang Xiaoou warned.

“This… ugh… very well.” Ning Ran had no choice but to agree.

Wearing her swimsuit in front of all the cameras, Ning Ran couldn’t help but feel awkward.

When she saw what the other female guests wore, Ning Ran suddenly felt that her swimwear was a joke.

Her swimsuit was extremely conservative as it only exposed her arms.

As for the other female guests, they were all scantily clad and exposed everything they had, regardless of whether it was appropriate to do so or not.

The interesting thing was that the producers were worried the show couldn’t get past the censorship on local television. Hence, they sent the other female guests back to change into something less revealing.

After some back and forth, the outfits were all resolved, and the first round of swimming began.

With some warming up, Ning Ran jumped into the water and swam forward with all her might.

Wang Xiaoou quickly reminded her to hold back her strength in the first round so that the increase in performance for the second round would be more significant.

However, Ning Ran wasn’t willing to take Wang Xiaoou’s advice. She felt that she should give it her best instead.

Given that the producers had set a rule like that, they would definitely be aware of the loophole it created. Therefore, they would be expecting people to take advantage of it.

Since the focus of the program was being true to oneself, Ning Ran felt that holding back would result in her being punished.

Although she didn’t know how the producers were going to determine whoever that was swimming slowly was faking it, she believed that it would be wrong for her to do. Thus, she didn’t want to put up an act the first time she was invited to such a popular reality show.

But when Wang Xiaoou saw how Ning Ran was swimming her heart out, she screamed in her heart.

How stupid can she be? Why doesn’t she listen to what I tell her?

What is she putting in so much effort for? In fact, is she trying to come in first place?

All the other celebrities are obviously swimming slowly on purpose. Only she is giving it her all. Is there something wrong with her brain?

Ning Ran put her best foot forward and didn’t notice what the other celebrities were doing. She was only focused on swimming forward as fast as she could.

When she lifted her head to take a look, she realized that she was in the first place.

She then felt awkward.

As for Wang Xiaoou, she felt like pushing Ning Ran’s head in the water so that she could calm down after choking on some pool water.

Now that you got yourself in the first place, how are you going to improve on your result later on?
