Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 178

May and the others learned that Joseph and Ashley had arrived at Cherry Blossom Manor and went to greet them.

The production team attached great importance to Joseph and Ashley. It was the fourth season of "Serenity of Rural Life." Abhough its ratings were goid, it lacked a climax. Compared with the great success of the first season, the latter two seasons had gone downhill with des lining ratings. For a variety show, stability would lead to a dead end. If the director wanted to continue making "Serenity of Runal Life" muil the ninth and tenth seasons or even make it into a long-running program, he had to make changes. Even if this change would bring negative consequences, he had to take a gamble.

The fourth season of "Serenity of Rural Life' definitely had some changes instead of sticking to the routine. Otherwise, the tasks that everyone knew would be boring. The three permanent guests, Max, Lance, and Garrett, had been given a heads-up by the production team, so they knew there would be changes, but they didn't know what had changed specifically. For now, they could only welcome the guests according to the program schedule set by the production team. This time, Joseph. a popular young celebrity who appeared on a variety show for the first time, as well as two mystery guests, were invited. The production team had given their all for the program's ratings and popularity.

Thanks for coming here. The two groups shook hands and nodded. Admiration for Joseph could be seen in the eyes of Max and others. Nowadays, handsome, popular young celebrities had all turned to variety shows to make money. Only Joseph worked hard on his acting skills and strived to become the best actor instead of making use of his young age and good looks. In a sense, it could be said the future of Clusia's acting industry would depend on someone like Joseph.

Max glanced at the camera and said with a smile, "As usual, please introduce yourselves first."

"My name is Joseph Harvey. I'm an actor. It's my first time participating in Serenity of Rural Life. I'm very excited and. happy... Joseph's self-introduction could be regarded as a model of speech. His thoughts were clear and flawless, and his magnetic voice with vocal fry sounded melodious.

Ashley's introduction was fluent, simple, and clear, which won the favor of many people, especially Garrett, who was single and relatively young among the permanent guests. His eyes lit up when he saw Ashley because she was his type.

Ashley was sensitive to men's gazes. She immediately noticed Garrett's affectionate look and secretly enjoyed it. She was about to show off herself before the camera when the production team sent a task instruction, asking everyone to return to Cherry Blossom Manor as the two mystery guests were about to arrive.

Ashley's plan was disrupted. She had to give up and follow others into Cherry Blossom Manor, where they received a new task instruction from the production team. They had to guess the identity of the mystery guests. Whoever got it right would get ten points. If nobody guessed correctly, the person with the closest answer would get five points.

The first clue was the mystery guests' voices. The production team played the audio of Selina and Lydia saying something.

Hearing their voices, Ashley was startled. The voices sound familiar. Like... Selina's and Lydia's?' she thought. She had been. humiliated by them so many times that she recognized their voices instinctively even though she didn't want to remember it. That's impossible. How could they participate in 'Serenity of Rural Life? she wondered.

The second clue was the mystery guests' appearance. They were beautiful females who had been popular on major social apps recently,

One of the guests guessed, "The most popular female celebrities... should be Genie from the band, Swim, right?"

Somebody suggested, "Linda has been on trending topics lately because of the popularity of her new drama and her chemistry with the male lead"

Another commented, "That's not right. None of their voices sound like that.

Max and the others köyn discussing potential candidates. For the sake of scores, they wouldn't say it out loud even if they hard a definite now in mind. They just put on a show in front of the camera for the effect of the show

Ashley glanced at Joseph and found he didn't react. That made se because Joseph had just returned to the Harvey family and hadn't even met Selina, let alone heard her voice. He had only seen her in photos. There's not only Selina's voice but also Lysia's Ashley thought. It it was the two, her plan of gainifig popularity through "Serenity of Rural Life" would be in jeopardy. She couldn't help but bite her lip. Please, Gol! It must not be them!

The third clue was the summary of the mystery guests' personalities.

"Don't care about life or death. Just fight if you can't accept it. It was Lydia's voice.

"Repay kindness with kindness. An eye for an eye. It was Selina's voice.

The two had the same personalities.

Max raised his eyebrows. "Well they are quite unique. Their voices are nice, too. But they don't match those we mentioned who have been on trending topics recently."

Lance smiled. "Mr. Hall, you may have overlooked something. The guests invited to participate in the first episode of the show are all related. For example, Joseph and Ashley are siblings, and Oliver and Pamela are husband and wife. So, these two mystery female guests must also be related."

Everyone thought it made sense and nodded. Garrett looked at Lance eagerly. "Lance, don't keep us in suspense. I've racked my brains but still can't figure it out. Please give me hints."

Jance continued, "Since they're females, they likely debuted as a duo or are sisters. After excluding other recently popular female celebrities, everyone should have an answer in mind. That's all I can say. Even I am not sure." Messages flooded the comment section of the live stream.

One posted: [Haha, it's fun to see all the guests being kept in the dark. Only Lance's guess is close. As expected of the wisest of the team I Another wrote: [Meanwhile, Selina and Lydia have met up and entered through the back door of Cherry Blossom Manor. Who can guess it first?] Someone remarked: [Gary looks so cute when he's puzzled. I want to ruffle his hair!]

In fact, after Lance's analysis, everyone was still confused mainly because they couldn't find suitable candidates with such voices and personalities. Only Ashley turned pale because she had guessed it based on these clues,

'It's Selina and Lydia! It can't be wrong! Ashley thought. She was certain just from the voices alone, not to mention Lydia was Selina's senior in school. Besides, the two had been on trending topics recently. Selina was definitely popular. Lydia, as the ace drummer of The Rose, was also popular for her carefree, wild style and good looks.

The production team announced the discussion time was over and asked everyone to write their answer on paper and hand it to the staff. Those who couldn't think of anything could leave it blank.

Joseph handed in a blank paper. He focused on acting and didn't care about worldly affairs. Even though he was in the entertainment industry, he wasn't interested in trending topics and gossip. He had no idea who these two women were and didn't bother to guess, Ashley hesitated and wrote down the names of Selina and Lydia. However, she hoped she was wrong.
